This isn't just any ordinary Halloween. As we build up to a Solar Eclipse & New Moon in "Empowering" Scorpio, life changing events are happening. The last Solar Eclipse of this energetic magnitude was nearly 20 years ago in 1994. Scorpio,
a passionate, secretive, and investigative sign is often associated
with tantric sex, inheritances, taxes, the paranormal, mystery, death and rebirth.
Beginning on Halloween,
(Thursday, October 31rst), our actions are very powerful as "The
Motivator," planet, Mars in "Down-to-Earth" Virgo is forming a positive alliance
with "Lord-of-the-Under-World" Pluto in "Ambitious" Capricorn. Big change is on the horizon. Finance may be a focal point. Forceful action is highlighted by confidence and follow-through, which doubles the available power at hand.
Today's beginnings will grow self-reliance fueled by faith and conviction. Don't have fear about moving forward. Remember, endings make room for new beginnings. If there's been a lot of changes this past month, it's because the universe is working it's way through you.
If you have Not yet felt them yet, expect some changes ahead. Going against the grain is Not recommended at this time.
As we wind down during the fourth quarter Moon over Halloween weekend, we are shedding our skins of the past and creating new pathways of success, beginning with the New Moon & Solar Eclipse on Sunday, November 1rst.
Details, details, details are the theme for today. Practicality and
sensible options run the show, however deep emotions may propel you to
investigate further. The "Pragmatic" Virgo Moon forms harmonious aspects
with the Sun & Pluto, both in the sign of "Passionate" Scorpio.
Intensity of emotions and deep thought may come into play. You may feel
like probing for
some unanswered questions and you may just find out
what you've been looking for. Most likely, you will analyze the issue before you
spring into action, as the Moon aligns with Mars, also in the sign of
Virgo. Virgo energy encourages us to proceed with caution. Both Virgo
and Scorpio have an eye for detail and oftentimes see or witness things that others miss. If you need to
get to the bottom of an issue; Now may be the time. Use this energy to
empower You!
Still waters run deep, but only when you can get below the surface. The coming month's theme may be probing the depths, as the Sun enters Scorpio today, joining Mercury also in Scorpio.
Unraveling a hidden or dark secret or focusing on a specific topic or
problem may come with ease. You may be able to get to the bottom of a
long-standing issue. Intense feelings and in-depth probing are on the
agenda. The Moon enters Cancer today joining the Sun and Mercury
in the water sign. Intuition is heightened during this time. Feelings
may get intense over the next few weeks. Try to keep your emotions in
check while keeping out distracting disturbances. Bring out the Sherlock
Holmes or Nancy Drew within and perhaps you may feel enlightened on the
new clues you discover. Compassion, nurturing and a deeper
understanding for your situation may come about as long as you don't
allow your emotions to run wild.
If you had a little trouble sleeping last night or found your mind in "think" mode; the Moon in "Future-Minded" Aquarius pleasantly aspects the Sun in "Analytical" Libra. This afternoon, you may find some resistance to your plans when the "Persistent" Moon in Aquarius Opposes Mars in "Headstrong" Aries. While you may be eager to get things rolling, your action plan may have a few set backs. Keep rowing along slowly and wait for calmer seas ahead. Commitments made now will tend to partake of this atmosphere, so have the patience to wait a little before moving forward. Tonight, the Moon Shifts into "Imaginative" Pisces. Moreover, the Moon teams up with "Outer-world" Neptune, also in Pisces. Emotions may get the best of you right now, but if you can hold yourself together, it's a great time for: creativity, inspiration, meditation, soul-searching, going within, the arts, chanting, drumming, and music of all sorts. If you allow your mind to drift a little, the answers that you seek may just come to you. Be sure to keep yourself grounded so that disillusionment doesn't fool you. It's best to avoid overindulgence, particularly mind altering substances such as alcohol under this influence.
The Moon, now in "Passionate" Scorpio," remains in it's first quarter, however the heaviness that we felt during the New Moon is dwindling. The Scorpio Moon forms a positive alliance with Mercury, Pluto and Saturn providing a pathway for enlightenment in communication, stability and changing your life for the better. If you have been lost, it's also a good time to discover your soul purpose/life mission. The choices you make now will effect you for quite some time, so choose wisely.
After hashing over all the issues under the recent New Moon on Friday, October 4th, we can now look beneath the surface and allow the truth to unfold. You may find some keys to unlock the doors to success. Now, you can begin to revamp and reshape your life for the better. Matters take on a more serious tone. If something doesn't feel right, you are probably on the right track. Instead of setting goals, set intentions. Then develop a strategic action plan to forge ahead.
Warning: Late tonight, or in the wee hours of tomorrow morning, Venus Squares the Sun, therefore avoid confrontations, particularly in matters pertaining to romance and money. Personality clashes are likely during your midnight snack and at the breakfast table tomorrow morning, Monday, October 7th!
It's a Last quarter Moon in the sign of "Detail-Orientated" Virgo right now folks. It's
time for wrappings things up and tying loose ends to prepare for the New
Moon tomorrow (Friday) night. As we round down the final quarter, the Moon slips into "Objective" Libra joining the
Sun in the Air Sign tonight giving us all something to "think" about. Our thoughts will tend to be deep,
analytical and penetrative at this time as Mercury, Venus and Saturn are
all in Clever-minded" Scorpio. The Sun and Moon, both in Libra give us a bit of a challenge. Libra is also a sign of decision making,
but Libra energy encourages us to view things from both sides of the equation. Therefore,
indecision may result and become problematic. Love tends to take on a serious role and
intimacy can become intensely passionate. Although the New Moon typically
represent New Beginnings, this New Moon (occurring Friday evening, October 4th) is
rivaled with resistance.
The "Fair-minded" Libra Moon is in negative
aspect to "Unconventional" Uranus in "Headstrong" Aries and to
"Purging" Pluto in "Steadfast" Capricorn. Breaking the mold,
unorthodox ideas, and trying anything new and non-traditional may be met
with a wall of resistance. A stubborn energy, particularly for plans of expansion seems to roll
right along into Saturday as the Moon is in negative aspect to both
Jupiter and Saturn. Expanding into new territory verses sticking to the
tried and true may be paramount. The Good News is that the Moon forms a
harmonious aspect to Mars in Leo. Action around creative ideas, going to
the theatre or seeing an action movie may be a good way to elevate your
mood. Intimacy may seem intense and escalated during this time.
