November 2007
Monthly Astrology Report
Happy Birthday
Scorpio and Sagittarius
REVIEW TIME
We begin this month using the energy of November's gemstone which is the Aquamarine or Beryl. Power colors great for us to be using now are those passionate and Deep Reds and oranges of Passion and creativity.
Planets are actors and the planets highlighted during this time are Venus which is about what we LOVE and what we like in our lives and aren’t we all really looking strongly at that right now? As well as The planets MARS, JUPITER and PLUTO. These planets are called planets of transformation and inner transformation is the theme for this month.
Jupiter (faith, trust and belief) will ride alongside Pluto in something called a conjunction all month so whatever is going on is Tremendously Powered with all that FIERY Sagittarius stuff.
Mars in Cancer (watery emotions and some family stuff tossed in is going retrograde and Pluto is finishing up its stay of 10 years in Sagittarius and getting ready to move to Capricorn in January of 2008. So we are in a strong and powerful time to really look at our emotions and get a great many answers from those same emotions. WE also have a strong energy of REVIEWING our lives, options and a strong need to now really get to work Manifesting our dreams into reality.
Please remember NOVEMBER 2007 is NOT the best month to cut loose and do anything without a great deal of careful thought unless you feel it so strongly and know it is right and can apply the HARM TO NONE theme to your actions or words.
FLY high this month by turning into your self…With Mercury the planet of ideas and communication moving DIRECT 11/1 in the sign of Libra brings relationship issues out and we will have some great opportunities to find a middle ground in disputes. Mercury is now direct but not entering the same point it began this retrograde at 8 degrees of Scorpio until November 17th.
What this means is that we are in the SHADOW or point which Mercury has traveled now for the 3rd time in 3 months. So, expect issues which have not been resolved to reassert themselves so that you can finally with that Full moon on the 25th eliminate and regenerate yourself to be ready for a 1 year of new beginnings January 2008.
Mercury will remain in Scorpio all month after the 11th so the theme right now really favors anything which involves intimate and inner connections to self and others. This is a time of tender feelings and people paying attention to what they believe are your motives, so make sure and be clear and ask If others understand what it is that you are really saying this month. Double check all documents and legal papers and if you can avoid signing contracts it would be a great idea. And realize transformation is the reason for all of this.
Mars the planet of action now retrogrades in the sign of Cancer on the 15th at 12 degrees of Cancer and rethinking our action and the 8 deep breathe rule will work well. When in doubt, stand perfectly quiet, take in 8 deep breaths and hold to the count of 10, release and do over for 8 times. At the end of this short time if you are still not sure what to do, DO NOTHING: this is not my idea but something someone taught me and it works.
Mars retrograde takes us into 2008 and this planet in Cancer allows us some Ancestral knowledge so get a past life regression, do some inner work, see a therapist, go to a counselor and above all, be KIND to yourself and others.
Mars will not go direct until January 30, 2008 and for me is the best time to look at my actions and reflect how others respond to me. How do you approach others? How do others react to you? How to find new and innovative ways to bring your ideas, thoughts and feelings forward and be honored rather than being resisted is how I see this time.
Mars is also the planet of War, Passion, and actions so use care with all of these energies as we get a chance to do them OVER again later down the road when Mars moves direct.
Dark of the moon magical dates are the 7th, 8th, and 9th of this month. The new moon seed planting SCORPIO moon this month is at 3:03pm pdt here in Seattle Washington at 17 Degrees of Scorpio. The Sabian symbol for this new moon is A WOMAN GREAT WITH CHILD. What this means is that we are pregnant with possibilities this month but maybe will not give birth yet. New moon to the full moon time is a time of INCREASE and remembering this will give you an added insight into what happens during this time.
On the 24th we have a Full moon with the Moon in open and intellectually curious Gemini and the Sun in Intense Sagittarius. This full moon day has many aspects and will be an interesting day to set the stage for the next 2 weeks.
Uranus the planet of sudden change moves direct on this Full moon day. Uranus forward motion in Pisces should decrease some of the vague fears and rather strong confusion we have been experiencing. And since Full moons to new moons are releasing time this would be a great day to realize that forward motion almost always involves letting go of the past. So, look at what you want to have happen in your life and make sure you are not fighting a fight which is not worth your time or energy.
On the 8th Venus the planet of love and beauty moves to Libra and I am going to hope that those rough relationship things going on for us all will ease up. I see the energy now moving to a lighter, freer time and truly we will have a month of looking at relationships in a new and better way.
After the 22nd when the sun moves to Sagittarius the energy shifts to an even lighter and more free theme. The ruling planet of Sagittarius is Jupiter and Jupiter in Sagittarius has brought fire and passion to our lives for the last year. In December this planet moves to CAPRICORN and really locks in the GOLDEN TRIANGEL OF earth energy for us all. Earth is really the sign of having what you want, and that is what manifesting is.
The Colors of Sagittarius are Purple and deep colors of blues. Keywords for this time are freedom-loving, truth, optimistic, aspiring to higher awareness and can also be a bit dogmatic in a belief that there is only one truth. Topaz is a wonderful stone to connect you to this powerful time of intensity and knowing your own truth.. Topaz is worn to radiate the gift of light that dispels the darkness and ignorance. The topaz is said to calm anger in the wearer and light a path through the darkness.
And this is my wish for you all is that you can with each day grow in the belief that you can always be more and better each day and you will by this time next month feel like you have awakened from a dream and are truly in love with your life. And maybe with yourself? The energy this month is strong for POWER of self.
Or the Love of power. Use care and you control this energy rather than your fears, or anger controlling you. I see huge transformations for us all during this month.
And if not transform which seems to be the word of the month, how about we think about reviewing how we are feeling about our lives and see what needs transforming? and For other articles pertaining to the planets shifting, and more, please visit my website at http://www.carolbarbeau.com.
