Astrology Update – Feeling the Changes
Astrology Update – Feeling the Changes
Did you notice; can you feel it?
The Sun entered Sagittarius, yesterday.
Scorpio time has now ended. It was a particularly heavy cycle this year due in part, to Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio, as well. This influence has the effect of pushing people inward to deeper introspection, which at worst could have felt depressing.
The echo of the 30-day Sun in Scorpio cycle (a.k.a. Scorpio time) can be still felt today (Saturday) with the heavy aspect of the Moon square Pluto for most of the day.
Fortunately, Mercury turned Direct again as well on November 20.
On Sunday, November 24, Venus and Jupiter, the astrological Princess and Prince will be conjunct sharing time together at 28 Sagittarius 04 which is pretty much exactly conjunct the Galactic Center, from our perspective here on Earth.
Although this conjunction occurs every 15 months or so, their combined alignment with the Galactic Center is much rarer indeed, at least only every twelve years and even then not necessarily depending on the respective positions of these two planetary bright lights, stars in their own right.
The Galactic Center holds a special status and is highly regarded among many astrologers as a very powerful spiritual point in any person’s chart. Yet when planets are present it is especially active, like a temple hosting people focused on reverence and ceremony. It could prove to be quite romantic for some people, as well. Combining the spiritual overtone with the romantic could make for a very lovely Sunday…
However you are aligned and inclined to embrace this rare event, Sunday is the day to do so. Yet, its influence is already active now and will get stronger all day Saturday too. So, make an effort to tune-in on Sunday especially and enjoy the uplifting and often euphoric Sagittarius energy which will see us through to Winter Solstice on December 21st.

Tip of the Month:
Haloween goes into overtime. The Scorpio New Moon in late October hosted a Mercury/Venus conjunction in Scorpio. Altogether, it seeded a particularly exuberant and passionate cycle, it also contained some complexities linked to the celestial lovers, Venus and Mars, in each others ruling sign – a role reversal. Despite the ‘mutual reception’, these are traditionally regarded as difficult sign placements or at least complex. This could prove extra interesting. Romantic relationships represent the main stage. Mercury retrograde in Scorpio adds intrigue to the plot.
Aries (Mar 21- Apr 19)
You are in a punchy and assertive mood as the month begins. This will likely continue, prompting you to want to lay low, initially. Yet, Venus entering Sagittarius will lure you to illuminate the dark night.
Taurus (Apr 20-May 20)

Tip of the Month:
October is a special month because it contains within it ‘oct’ or 8 which is the number of power and abundance and it is officially the 10th month and it seems that 10 is what we are all after. After all, 1 is symbolic of no separation, as in oneness, and 0 is the spiritual number of power, as with infinity. Imagine, 0 = nothing or no thing, yet every time you place it beside 1 say, 1 becomes more powerful. Pure ‘mathemagics’! The New Moon in Libra on September 28 carries within it this magic. What will you manifest?
