A quick glance at what's happening in your world
October - November
2011
ARIES
If you were born March
21-25 you have been pummeled over the past several years by Pluto,
Saturn and now Uranus. If you were born on March 21-23, Uranus
will conjunct your Sun through February 2012, bringing unexpected
events to your life, changes and a strong desire for personal
freedom to express yourself in ways that are unique to you as
an individual. If you were born March 26-28, Pluto will square
your Sun the last quarter of 2011. If you were born before these
dates, Pluto has already crossed your Sun and after the above
dates, Pluto will eventually create a square to your Sun. The
further out you were born, the further away this transit is.
Pluto will be in Capricorn through 2024. Pluto-Sun transits often
change or transform situations, or partners in your life. Pluto-Sun
transits often seem to bring a crisis, either in your personal
life or business, but your ambition will be high. Pluto is the
ultimate planet of change and transformation, and after Pluto
crosses your Sun, individuals often feel they have gone through
a period of major change in their life. Most of them report a
change for the better in the end.
Saturn will move from 19-28 degrees between October and December
31, 2010. You will be affected if you were born April 7-19. Saturn
opposing Sun transits often weed out relationships that no longer
serve a purpose. Otherwise, Sun-Saturn oppositions create delay,
frustrations and obstacles. Occasionally, this signifies a health
problem, and is often connected with stress, tiredness and a
feeling of being world weary. Those born April 8-11 will experience
Sun-Saturn oppositions in October, April 12-15 in November, and
April 16-19 will experience this in December.
During October Venus, the planet of love and money will transit
your eighth house of sex, and other people's money. It will give
you a slight lift in these areas and help with creative ways
to make money. Mars, the other planet connected to your love
life will be in your fifth house of love affairs until November
11. This happens only every two years, so if you are single it
is a great time to meet someone new. By October 24, the Sun,
Mercury and Venus are all zooming through your eighth house,
placing a focus on your sex life, and corporate money. The eighth
house can also indicates surgery, lawsuits and inheritance, but
it would take more than these fast moving planets in your chart
to create a situation like that.
The October new moon on October 26, falls in your eighth house
of sex and other people's money placing a focus on these areas.
The eighth house is also the house of change and transformation,
and can signify personal changes that lie ahead.
In November, the planets start to shift into Sagittarius, beginning
with Mercury and Venus on the 3rd. Sagittarius is a compatible
sign for Aries and this is a great placement for Venus. At some
point this month you may plan a trip. On November 12, Mars leaves
your fifth house to enter your house of health and work. It will
remain here until July of 2012, retrograding in January 2012.
Use the rest of the year to accomplish what your want in these
areas, because it will become harder to do so when Mars retrogrades.
The November full moon on November 10, falls in your second house
of money and it is in this area you will be focused at this time.
TAURUS
Jupiter, the planet
of gain and expansion entered your first house in June 2011.
If you were born between April 21-May 1, Jupiter has conjuncted
your Sun this year. If you were born after May 1, Jupiter will
conjunct your Sun mid-March on in 2011. Jupiter-Sun transits
only occur every 12 years, so be prepared to take advantage of
this lucky transit. Jupiter-Sun transits represent a time when
life can become easier, and you may feel a certain amount of
luck at hand. Opportunities come your way during this time. At
the very least, it is a form of personal protection if you are
experiencing otherwise harder and more difficult transits. All
Taureans will experience this Jupiter-Sun transit again whether
you have already experienced it or not, as Jupiter retrogrades
back to the 0 degree mark. During October Jupiter is between
5-8 degrees affecting those born April 28-25, November Jupiter
is conjunct the Sun of those born April 24-21, and those lucky
Taureans born April 20-23 will have Jupiter conjunct their Sun
late November through January 2012. Jupiter goes direct on Christmas
Day, increasing its power and ability to bring opportunity your
way, and from here it will move though the sign of Taurus hitting
everyone born under the sign of the Bull at some point.
Venus in Scorpio enters your seventh house of partnerships from
mid-October on. By month's end both the Sun and Mercury are moving
through your house of partnerships and relationships placing
a great deal of focus on those individuals closest to us. Partners
are considered both personal and professional. Mars, the planet
of action transits your fourth house through November 11. The
fourth house relates to the home and personal foundation. Sometimes
the fourth house can be considered the 'end of the matter.' You
could be working on your home, either literally, or figuratively.
By month's end we have a New Moon is Scorpio on October 26, at
3 degrees of Scorpio. Your focus at this time will be on partners
and partnerships. Someone may initiate something toward you.
By early November Mercury and Venus enter Sagittarius, your eighth
house. The eighth house of your chart relates to sex, other people's
money and corporate money. It is also the house of transformation
and change. Occasionally you can hear of a death, be involved
in a lawsuit or have surgery, but those incidents do not generally
occur unless something else in your chart points to it.
On November 12, Mars, the planet of action enters Virgo your
fifth house of children, social activity, and love affairs! Mars
is going to be in this placement for a very long time! Mars usually
spends about 40-50 days in each sign, but Mars in Virgo will
move slowly and retrograde on January 24, 2012. At that time
it will retrace it's steps back through Virgo until it goes direct
mid-April. It will remain in Virgo until July 2012! That's a
long time for the planet of action to spend in your fifth house!
GEMINI
If you were born under
the sign of the twins, you may have connected with a former love
interest, or you may in the future depending upon what day you
were born. Saturn, which rules the past, will be transiting your
fifth house of love affairs until fall of 2012. The Sun is lighting
up your fifth house as well through October 23. On October 24,
the Sun, Mercury and Venus will all be transiting your sixth
house of work and health matters focusing your attention in that
area.
On October 26, we have a New Moon that will fall in your sixth
house of work as well. This is an auspicious time to begin a
diet or workout program.
Mars, the planet of action, and God of War is transiting your
third house through November 11, placing a focus on ideas, travel,
co-workers, relatives and immediate family members or neighbors.
Mars enters Virgo, your fourth house on November 12, where it
will remain through July of 2012. The reason Mars will transit
this house for so long is the fact that in January, Mars will
retrograde. This is a planetary phenomenon that occurs approximately
every two years. You will make many changes in your home and
personal foundation during this period and some of the decisions
will be pivotal.
November 3, Venus and Mercury enter Sagittarius, changing the
Mercurial energy as well as love energy. Both planets enter your
seventh house of partners and partnerships, as well as marriage
until month's end. Your focus will change toward this direction
at this time. On November 10, we have a Full Moon in Taurus at
18 degrees. This full moon will fall in your twelfth house. The
twelfth house rules the subconscious mind, including things that
are secret and hidden. It has been called the house of 'self
undoing,' especially if you are prone to this type of thing.
It rules seclusion, Dr. visits and hospitals. Sometimes, a full
moon in the twelfth is a time for being in seclusion by choice
or by necessity. Often issued buried in the subconscious mind
come up at this time. It can be a time of spiritual illumination.
CANCER
If you were born June
22-28 you have been pummeled by Saturn, Pluto and Uranus - the
big three. It is likely you have gone through many trials and
setbacks during this time. A time of greater stability is close,
as well as a time you can relax without so many unexpected things
happening. If you were born July 13-17, Saturn will square your
Sun mid-October, mid-November. Bad relationships may end during
this time, and many changes can occur in your home and personal
foundation. Your vitality may be low and you could experience
a breakdown in your health if other things point in that direction.
(This does not mean everyone will have bad heath!) If your health
is good you may feel more tired than you have in years. After
mid-November your vitality will pick up and you should have reached
decisions in several areas of your life by now.
November's Full Moon occurs on November 10, in Taurus, your third
house, ruling ideas, travel and immediate family members, as
well as co-workers and neighbors. Your attention will be focused
on these matters at this time. Mid to late October three planets
will be turning your focus toward your social life and love affairs
or children. Mercury, Venus and as of October 24, the Sun will
be transiting your fifth house! This is the time to meet someone
new or take existing relationships to a higher level. You could
spend time with children. This may be one of the most favorable
periods for your love/social life. On October 26, a New Moon
falls at three degrees of Scorpio in your fifth house of love
affairs. Now is the time to socialize, meet friends and potential
new lovers.
By November 3, Venus and Mercury enter Sagittarius, your sixth
house of work. These two planets will push your focus toward
work, well being and health matters over the next 29 days.
November 12, Mars enters Virgo, your third house, and here it
will remain for a very long time. The third house rules speech
and communication, travel, relatives and immediate family members,
and neighbors. It is likely you will have more interaction than
at other times and your mind will be active. Mars will remain
in Virgo until July, as it retrogrades next year, and doesn't
go direct until Spring.
LEO
If you were born during
the final degrees of Leo, August 20-23, you have been experiencing
the transit of Neptune opposing your Sun for the past several
years. Relationships, partnerships and other situations may have
become murky and disoriented during this time and some of them
may have faded out. Neptune has a dissolving effect, and this
transit represents major lifetime change. You are currently experiencing
the final swing of this murky transit, and by February 2012 when
Neptune moves into Pisces you will begin to see your situation
with much more clarity.
From mid-month on Mercury and Venus transit your fourth house,
which rules the home and foundation. You may find yourself spending
more time at home or spending on the home. Sometimes we begin
new endeavors at this time!
October 26, brings a New Moon in Scorpio at 3 degrees, falling
in your fourth house. You may start something new, or be involved
with family or home.
By November 3, Mercury and Venus enter Sagittarius and your fifth
house. This will change the energy from intense to lighthearted.
The ruler of Sagittarius is Jupiter, the planet of gain and expansion
and you will spend the next 29 days with a focus on children,
your social life/love life and creativity. You may mingle more,
and under the right circumstances, if your natal chart points
to it, meet someone special. You will be focused on friends and
entertainment throughout much of November.
November 12, Mars enters Virgo, your second house, and here it
will remain for a very long time. The second house rules money,
earned income and sometimes self-image. Mars will remain in Virgo
until July, as it retrogrades next year, and doesn't go direct
until Spring. With Mars in the second house you may have opportunities
to make money, and focus on money matters, but you may also want
to watch your checkbook. Mars in the second house usually means
you are spending money!
VIRGO
If you were born August
29-31 you have Jupiter trine your Sun in October. This is a favorable
influence, and often a time in your life when things go your
way. It can lead to travel, advancement and new relationships.
If you were born August 24-28 Jupiter will trine your Sun during
November. If you are a Virgo born on a different date, Jupiter
will trine your Sun at some point during the first half of 2012,
making for some positive and fun times in 2012. If nothing else,
Jupiter serves as a form of 'personal protection.'
Mid-month on, Venus and Mercury are in your third house which
rules short travel, mental activities, friends, neighbors and
co-workers. Communication of all types will be important to you
this month. On October 26, there is a New Moon in Scorpio which
also falls in your third house. You may spend time with relatives
or hear news about family members. November 24, the Sun enters
your third house as well, placing three out of ten planets in
your third house. You will be mentally activated!
By November 3, Mercury and Venus enter Sagittarius and your fourth
house. This will change the energy from intense to lighthearted.
The ruler of Sagittarius is Jupiter, the planet of gain and expansion
and you will spend the next 29 days with a focus on home, family,
and enjoying the personal foundation you have built for yourself.
You will be in the mood to entertain at home.
November 12, Mars enters Virgo, your first house, and here it
will remain for a very long time. The first house rules you as
an individual and things that affect you personally. This is
the start of a new two year Mars cycle and Mars in your sign
usually means that you become very busy. Sometimes you begin
new activities. You may have a few false starts with situations
or people as Mars retrogrades in late January 2012. When Mars
retrogrades energy becomes more subtle and sometimes projects
slow down. Mars retrogrades about every two years. The last time
the planet of action retrograded it was in Leo, December of 2009.
Mars will remain in Virgo until July, and doesn't go direct until
April 14, 2012 at three degrees of Virgo. It retrogrades January
24, 2012, and those Virgos most affected will have a personal
planet being aspected by 23 degrees of Virgo, or born August
15-20.
LIBRA
If you are a Libra born
September 24-October 16, you probably feel you have been battered
by the planets. Libra is being squared by Pluto, opposed by Uranus
and conjuncted by Saturn. All of this makes for situations involving
major life changes, some of them not easy. If you were born September
24-29, Pluto, the planet of changes beyond your control is moving
on. Saturn has moved away from your Sun as well. That's 2 out
of 3. If you were born September 24-27 Uranus is opposing your
Sun at this time, and through February 2012, creating many changes,
especially in the area of relationships and partnerships. Look
for unexpected twists and turns to occur during this period.
Uranus is all about freedom, and is in fact called the planet
of 'freedom at any cost.' Now is the time to free yourself from
situations or people that are repressive to you. Just don't throw
out the baby with the bath water. If you were born October 14-19
Saturn is conjuncting your Sun during October or November. Saturn
causes delays, restrictions and limitations. Saturn-Sun is often
a major lifetime turning point, and it is time to recreate yourself.
Sometimes people, situations and things are removed from our
life at this time. Focus on renewing yourself and this too shall
pass. Saturn conjuncts your Sun every 30 years.
Mercury and Venus are transiting your second house of money during
October, giving a slight edge in money matters. A New Moon falls
in your second house of money on October 26, and it is here your
energy will be focused at this time.
By November 3, Venus and Mercury enter your third house ruling
communications of all types, short trips, friends, neighbors,
co-workers and immediate family members, turning your attention
to the people around you and placing a focus on day to day communication.
You could decide to increase your knowledge in some matter or
take a short trip. All in all the energy will be lighter than
October.
November 12, Mars enters Virgo, your twelfth house, and here
it will remain for a very long time. The twelfth house rules
things that are hidden, Dr.'s, hospitals, and your own subconscious
mind. Sometimes action is carried out to avoid opposition, and
sometimes there are secret intrigues. The twelfth house rules
seclusion and you may want to spend time alone during this period.
Depending upon your basic nature, the twelfth house is sometimes
called, 'the house of self-undoing.' Pay attention to your own
subconscious motivations. You can also reach psychological breakthroughs
and have some ah-ha moments. If you ever desired to seek counseling,
now would be the time. This is the start of a new two year Mars
cycle, and when Mars retrogrades late January 2012, energy becomes
more subtle and sometimes projects slow down. Mars retrogrades
about every two years. The last time the planet of action retrograded
it was in Leo, December of 2009. Mars will finally leave Virgo
July of 2012.
SCORPIO
If you were born November
19-22, Neptune is squaring your Sun. Neptune is the planet of
illusion, delusion, confusion and lack of clarity. You may be
going through a period where your home life, or your basic foundation
and everything in it lacks focus. This period actually started
several years ago, and it has been a long road. Certain things,
situations and people may have just dissolved out of your life.
You will regain your clarity, and you situation will become clear
shortly. By February 4, 2012, Neptune moves into the sign of
Pisces for the next 15 or so years, and this period will soon
be over.
Jupiter is currently in your seventh house of partners and will
remain here until mid-June of 2012. Whatever Jupiter touches,
it expands and your seventh house rules partners, partnerships,
and marriage. If you are in a relationship it could go to a new
level, and sometimes we meet significant others with this transit.
It is also excellent for business partnerships.
Mercury and Venus are transiting your first house during October.
Venus enters our first house for one month every year, and this
is the period we are considered to be at our most attractive
to others. The New Moon on October 26 falls in your first house
as well, and new moons generally have to do with new beginnings.
By November 3, Venus and Mars enter Sagittarius and this will
change the Mercurial energy to lighter and happier - much different
from Scorpio. Sagittarius rules your second house of money and
this will give you a slight edge throughout the month.
Mars, the action planet is transiting your eleventh house of
friends, hopes and wishes as well as corporations on November
11. During this time you will focus on group matters and can
make headway. Wherever Mars travels, we are generally focused
and driven. The eleventh house rules corporations and groups,
friends, hopes and wishes. Mars in the eleventh means energetic
actions with friends and groups, a desire for leadership and
at the same time there can be conflicts with the same. Mars retrogrades
late January 2012, and sometime projects slow down at this time.
It will go direct in the spring and remain in Virgo until July
of 2012.
SAGITTARIUS
If you were born November
23-26 Uranus is trining your Sun. This is an excellent transit
and can bring people, ideas and opportunities into your life
with unexpected ease. Uranus trining your Sun is a great time
to expand your life, and opportunities will come to you that
you do not expect. Uranus has entered your fifth house of love
affairs/social activities and friends. Now is the time to broaden
your social acquaintances and you may meet someone new if you
are looking. You will be drawn to new and unusual situations
and types of people that are different from whatever your norm
is. This is a very fortunate period that will last through February
2012. If you were born after November 26, Uranus will trine your
Sun at some point during its seven year cycle. Uranus will be
in Aries through 2018, and the later you were born under your
sign, the further out this transit is. Next year it will affect
those born November 23-December 3.
Mercury and Venus are transiting your twelfth house. You may
find you want to spend more time alone in November, especially
around the full moon on November 26. The twelfth house rules
things that are secret and hidden, Dr.'s and places of seclusion.
November 3, Venus and Mercury enter your first house and conjunct
your Sun if you were born November 23-26. This should be a busy
day with much social activity. Venus only transits your first
house of self and new beginnings once a year and this is a special
time where your social life will be much more in focus.
November 10, we have a full moon in Taurus, falling in your sixth
house of health and work. It is here your attention will be focused
at this time.
Mars, the action planet is transiting your tenth house of work
and career until November 11. During this time you will focus
on career matters and can make headway. Wherever Mars travels,
we are generally focused and driven. The tenth house places a
focus on career matters and priorities. Mars retrogrades late
January 2012, and sometimes projects slow down at this time.
It will go direct in the Spring and remain in Virgo until July
of 2012.
CAPRICORN
If you are a 0-6 degree
Capricorn, born December 23-29, you have been pummeled by Pluto,
Saturn and Uranus. Yours is a Cardinal sign and all Cardinal
signs, Cancer, Aries, Libra and Capricorn are now enmeshed in
a complex patter with Saturn, Uranus and Pluto. First, Pluto
entered Capricorn and conjuncted your Sun if you were born during
the above dates, starting in mid-2008. Then, Saturn followed
in Libra summer of 2010, and finally Uranus, the planet of unexpected
change, revolution and freedom is squaring your Sun. If you were
born December 22-25, Uranus is squaring your Sun now, and will
continue to do so through February. You could experience job
change, relationship shakeups, and many other events, sometimes
involving men, or the male side of the family that come as surprises.
Uranus can be a selfish planet and many times people make breaks
from things and situations they consider oppressive. Or other
people can break away from you during this time. Uranus seeks
to free us from situations that have become stale and non-productive.
Often this is experienced as a time with no real stability. Stability
is still there but you must be willing to go with the flow during
this time. If you were born January 11-17, Saturn is squaring
your Sun October-November. Saturn square Sun may involve situations
that call for change in work, and sometimes personal lives. Situations
you are involved in may be delayed, causing frustration. Your
situation will be tested at this time, which sometimes goes back
to events that began seven years ago. Health issues can occur,
but only if your personal chart points to it. If you feel tired
and drained, your energy will start to return as this transit
passes. If you were born December 23-29, Jupiter is trining your
Sun at this time from your fifth house of love affairs/social
activities. You could be involved with children at this time
or be planning children. You could also extend your social life
and meet someone special.
Venus and Mercury transit your eleventh house through October
placing you among friends and groups. The New Moon on October
26, falls in your eleventh house of friends, hopes and wishes,
and should be positive unless something else in your charts says
otherwise.
By November 3, Venus and Mercury move to your twelfth house of
secrets, and you may hear about secrets, or just want to spend
some time alone this month.
Mars enters Virgo on November 11, a sign that is favorable to
you. It enters your ninth house which rules education, legal
and medical situations and facilities, travel, publishing, and
is generally representative of your outlook on the world. Wherever
Mars travels, we are generally focused and driven. Mars retrogrades
late January 2012, and sometime projects slow down at this time.
It will go direct in the Spring and remain in Virgo until July
of 2012.
AQUARIUS
If you are a late degree
Aquarius born February 16-19, Neptune is making its last and
final pass across your Sun between now and February 2012. Neptune
has a dissolving effect, and you may feel that certain situations
have dissolved over the past few years. Neptune is the planet
of illusion, delusion and confusion, and you may have been involved
in relationships or circumstances that have seemed unclear. Neptune
moves into Pisces February 2012, and as this occurs you will
start to regain your clarity in many matters. Neptune also rules
creativity and spirituality and you may grow in these areas with
leaps and bounds during this time.
If you were born in during the early degrees of Aquarius, January
21-24, Uranus is sextiling your Sun October-November. You may
start to feel new mental inspiration during this time, and this
is the realm of ideas, and day to day communication may take
on new meaning. Everything begins with an idea and now is the
time to pay attention to your thoughts. Brilliance may come in
flashes that could soon be forgotten if you don't record it.
If you were born after this time Uranus will sextile your Sun
at some point during the next six years.
If you were born February 10-16 Saturn is trining your Sun during
October-November. Saturn-Sun transits are indicative of personal
stability and you may make progress in all matters at this time.
Travel, especially to old places is favored, as is education.
You may reconnect with those from the past, occasionally an old
love. If you were born after this date, Saturn will trine your
Sun between December and February 2012.
Mercury and Venus are transiting your tenth house of career and
priorities, giving you a slight edge at this time. The New Moon
on October 26, falls here as well.
By November 3, the planets of love and communication move to
your eleventh house of friends, hopes and wishes, along with
group associations and you will find you spend more time with
people. This is a favorable position for Aquarius. November's
Full Moon occurs on the 11th and falls at 18 degrees of Taurus,
your fourth house of home and family. You may be concerned with
a male in your life, or family members.
Mars, the action planet is transiting your seventh house of partners
until November 11. During this time you will focus on your partner,
or professional association. Wherever Mars travels, we are generally
focused and driven. November 11, it moves to your eighth house
of money, corporate money, other people's money and sex where
it will remain for 8 months. The eighth house also rules personal
transformation. Mars retrogrades late January 2012, and sometimes
projects slow down at this time. It will go direct in the Spring
and remain in Virgo until July of 2012.
PISCES
If you are a Pisces
born in the early degrees, February 20-26, Jupiter the planet
of expansion and gain is sextiling your Sun during October-November.
This is a blessed event astrologically, as Jupiter-Sun periods
often concede with our most favorable times. It is currently
placed in the third house which rules the mind, ideas, travel
and immediate family members. Jupiter is retrograde at this time,
not operating at full steam, but it goes direct on Christmas
Day and will repeat the pattern with more steam next year. If
you are experiencing some difficulty in your life at this time,
Jupiter will serve as personal protection, helping you come up
with solutions and answers. The only downfall to Jupiter is that
it expands whatever it touches and that can include your waistline!
All Pisces will have Jupiter sextiling their Sun at some point
between now and next June. If you were born during the second
half of Pisces the transit will occur in the spring of 2012.
Venus and Mercury are in Scorpio, transiting your ninth house
until November 3. You have a possibility of travel, improving
your education and your general outlook on the world at this
time. Venus in Pisces is favorable toward your sign and will
help increase activities in your social life at this time as
well. Your New Moon falls on October 3, in your house of travel.
If you don't physically go somewhere you may become an armchair
traveler at this time, or take steps to improve your education.
By November 3, Mercury and Venus enter Sagittarius, your tenth
house of work and priorities, giving you a slight edge on your
career for the next 29 days.
November's Full moon occurs on November 10, in Taurus, your third
house, ruling ideas, travel and immediate family members, as
well as co-workers and neighbors. Your attention will be focused
on these matters at this time. Mars in Leo is transiting your
sixth house of work and health until November 11, at which time
it enters Virgo your seventh house of partners and partnerships.
It will remain in Virgo over the next eight months, and your
attention will be on seventh house matters, which also include
courts (if something else in your chart points to it) and it
is considered the house of 'open enemies.' During this time you
will focus on your partner, or professional association. Wherever
Mars travels, we are generally focused and driven. Mars retrogrades
late January 2012, and sometimes projects slow down at this time.
It will go direct in the spring and remain in Virgo until July
of 2012.
