Lunations and Long Term Aspects

This month the Full Moon occurs on November 2nd in fellow Earth Sign, Taurus, which represents your 5th House of creativity, ego expression, children, romance, speculation and entertainment.  A Full Moon typically heralds an ending, culmination, or shifting to a new phase so you can expect something in this part of your life to get your attention.  Something is likely to come to fruition, become more significant or perhaps find resolution.  The 5th House is a bit harder to define than some, but generally it contains those things that are all about you and how you feel about yourself, including your personal identity.

The Sun - Moon opposition, which defines the Full Moon, comprises the Sun in passionate and sometimes obsessive Scorpio and the Moon, as noted earlier, in Taurus.  While Taurus represents your 5th House of ego and such, Scorpio represents your 11th House of others, which includes friends, group associations, organizational ties, and hopes and wishes.  Hopes and wishes may seem a bit out of place with this grouping, but these would be those things that you want to accomplish that may require the help of others and not solely dependent on your own actions.  Since Cappies tend to like climbing the career ladder and attaining recognition and status, the kind of networking conducted with others is an important element that your introverted tendencies may not pursue as it should unless they're balanced by a more outgoing Ascendant and/or Moon Sign.

Mars is currently in Leo and at the time of the Full Moon will form a T-Square with the Sun - Moon from your 8th House of transformations, intimate relationships, death and regeneration, and shared resources.  Mars in the 8th House is a transit to keep an eye on since all that energy can make you accident prone; don't take any unnecessary chances this month, particularly those of you with birthdays between December 28 - January 9.  Transformational events or experiences are likely which in most cases will be self-directed and will derive from the differences between how you see yourself versus how others see you.  This is a time to become more comfortable with who and what you are and present an honest representation to others rather than putting on a facade; a more authentic public image is likely to be the result, which will serve you well over time.

Venus is in your 10th House, which is home base for Cappies and represents your career, reputation and status before the world.  As a benefic planet, this is a fortuitous placement but will only last until November 7th.  At the time of the Full Moon, however, she is forming a T-Square with the Lunar Nodes.  While T-Squares can be challenging, such as the one described above, with Venus in this House it is likely to be pleasant.  Something is coming into your personal life while something regarding relationships is going out, but these will have a favorable affect on your career, status or reputation. 

Remember that "status" in this context includes a plethora of possibilities since there are so many different situations and events that affect it.  If you think titles or labels, it will help understand what this can mean.  For example, graduating from school represents something that affects your status and you become a "graduate."  When you get married or divorced it also affects how you're viewed by others.  A promotion or conversely losing your job is another event related to your status.  Being elected to public office, obtaining a license of some sort, becoming a homeowner, and so forth are other possibilities.  So Venus is casting her blessings on one or more of these areas which will bring something into your life, though it may mean that certain relationships may fade into the past as you shift directions.

Venus is trine Neptune and the asteroid, Chiron, as well, both of which are in Aquarius, your 2nd House of financial matters, possessions, what you value, pleasures and needs.  Neptune is quite antithetical to Saturn; while Saturn builds and provides structure, Neptune dissolves and dissipates.  However, Neptune also can fuel your dreams and provide inspiration, though you are well-advised to give them sanity checks.  Neptune will come out of retrograde within a few days, allowing that energy to be externalized.  In trine with Venus this should help you to define your dreams related to your material situation as they relate to your career or public image.  This is the time to set you eyes on a financial goal or the personal comfort zone of your dreams then expect the Universe to show you the way to attain it.  The trine with Chiron, the "wounded healer," should also have a positive influence by helping to resolve, heal or provide understanding toward anything that has brought you disappointment in this area in the past. 

Venus is also quincunx Uranus who's camped out in your 3rd House of thoughts, ideas, neighbors and short journeys.  Uranus brings innovation, spontaneity, and often rebellion and breaking free of restrictions.  A quincunx typically denotes the need for a change of course or adjustment, implying that a major change to your mindset is required to find the benefits that await with regard to your career or status.  Thus, pay attention to any unconventional ideas that come along and be patient with any other disruptions as they will be to your advantage, provided you handle them properly.  This is further reinforced by the fact that Uranus is sextile the North Node, indicating an unexpected opportunity to bring something new into your life.

Your Sign Ruler, Saturn, is forming a square with Pluto, who's currently in Capricorn for the long haul.  Those of you with birthdays between December 22 - 25 will be feeling this more than others.  Pluto transits on your Natal Sun are a time of transformation and authentication of who and what you are and how easily you navigate through this will depend on how comfortable or knowledgeable you may be of yourself and your personal power.  Saturn is also in your 10th House of status and so forth as described earlier.   If these two bad boys are connecting with your Natal Sun it is likely to have a rather dramatic effect.  Saturn brings Cappies their sense of structure, discipline and ambition which is what keeps us climbing up that mountain toward success in spite of any obstacles. 

Regardless of appearances, this is actually a very positive transit for you and will help develop the qualities you need to pursue goals related to your career, reputation or status.  While a square typically denotes a crisis, the square between Saturn and Pluto will work to your advantage, even if it's not painless and may not seem advantageous at the time.  Pluto unearths those things that have been buried or hidden, and on your Natal Sun, as already stated, this will enhance your authenticity as a person.  If there is anything about your self-image that has been holding you back, Pluto will bring it to your attention for resolution, thus freeing you up to pursue things with an effectiveness you didn't have before.  In reality, he will be clearing the way up that mountain, getting rid of any self-imposed obstacles that may have held you back in the past.  And thus shines the Full Moon.

The New Moon on November 16 occurs in Scorpio, your 11th House of friends, groups, associations, hopes and wishes.  This implies new horizons are opening up in this area with specific opportunities likely for those of you with birthdays between January 14 - 16.  Be wary of delusions, however; read the fine print and make sure that they'll take you in the direction you want to go or you may not like the end result.  There are definitely opportunities to take your life in a new direction, but turn up the gain on that Cappy skepticism to make sure they're real and will deliver as promised before taking them to the bank.  Inspirational ideas that further fuel your opportunities and ambitions are out there as well, but a heavy dose of discernment is called for to make sure you're on the right track.  You're not delusional by nature so should make it through just fine, but make sure you do the math.  That Saturn - Pluto square is still out there helping you overcome anything of a personal nature that may be holding you back.  Unexpected annoyances and frustrations are likely, so be prepared for them and don't let them divert you from your established course.  All in all there are good things coming, but they won't be handed to you on the proverbial silver platter.

Short Term Aspects

November 1:  News or information related to your group affiliations or goals may present an obstacle today.  This could arrive as a demand for payment or other obstacle.  Be careful driving today as well as how you may present your ideas to others as you may be perceived as too aggressive.

November 2:  The Full Moon occurs today as described above.

November 3:  Neptune comes out of retrograde, allowing your dreams and any inspiration related to your finances to come to the surface.

November 5 - 7:  News or information related to your goals as they apply to interactions with others will make an appearance today.  This could bring your attention to a group or organization that could assist you.  However, proceed with caution and consider past experience in similar situations because the level of obligation it may entail may be higher than you're willing to provide.  Venus goes into Scorpio on the 7th, which will provide you with the charm you need to take care of business in a pleasant way, regardless of what it may entail.

November 8:  Expect further light regarding that situation with a group, organization or relative to your goals.  Now is when the true cost will become apparent and whether it will be worth it or meet your needs.  There's always a price to pay and even if it's only time and not money, it will take away from that available to pursue your personal ambitions.  Again, look to past experience as well as what you really want to do as opposed to doing something simply to please others.

November 10:  Your goals and finances may conflict today.  Count the cost versus the benefits carefully to be sure you know what you're getting into before signing on the dotted line.

November 11:  Favorable news or perhaps an innovative idea for a fresh approach is likely today.  Again, make sure you're being practical about what it will cost.  This doesn't mean not to do it, only to fully understand what you're getting into.

November 14:  A female associate may spring something on you today that requires some running around or conversely trigger an idea you can make use of.  A favorable response on your part should reap numerous benefits.

November 15:  Mercury goes into Sagittarius today, facilitating greater clarity with respect to your dreams, finding inspiration, or identifying areas in which you're you own worst enemy.  This will also help with those ambitions and personal progress issues.  Identifying any delusions related to your finances is also favored.

November 16:  New Moon today as described above.

November 19 - 21:  A female friend may ask for a loan today.  Consider the source carefully before complying.  Again, look at what the "real you" wants to do versus the "politically correct" you.  Also consider any affect it may have on your ambitions and public image.  The Sun goes into Sagittarius on the 21st, further illuminating your connection with your dreams, inspiration, or any self-defeating behaviors.

November 23:  Money issues are still in the forefront.  Consider any risks carefully.  Again, consider experience and whether repeating the past is the best course.

November 24 - 25:  Look for inspiration related to opportunities to achieve your goals.  Unexpected ideas that come through a female friend or associate are possible.

November 26:  Deep insights will have a profound effect on you today.  Daydreaming about your finances is a possibility but recognize it for what it is.  Also be cautious regarding any relationships, particularly new ones or related to group affiliations.  The likelihood that these individuals will come through for you isn't particularly favorable.

November 29:  Watch for inspired ideas that present opportunities to enhance your financial situation.  This can be a day of transformation as you recognize something you'd entirely missed before about yourself.

November 30:  If there is anyone out there trying to undermine you, including yourself, it could manifest today in an unexpected manner.  Your dreams could also provide you with an innovative idea worth considering.
