Note:  Mercury is retrograde in the sign of Sagittarius from Nov 6 - 26, which lends lends itself to exploring the philosophical side of our nature, peaking down the road, to see what the future holds.  It often triggers the desire to make travel plans.  It's not as suited to that which requires tremendous attention to detail and a thoroughly practical perspective.

Please note:  All times given below are PST

Nov 1 - We are so in the mood for changing our minds today.  Maybe it's those artsy, independent influences in the air, which create a desire for freedom.  By evening time, we might find ourselves in the mood for a good philosophical chats with friends over dinner.

(Venus in Libra opposes Uranus in Aries, exact at 3 pm, followed by a Moon-Jupiter conjunction in Gemini at 6:15 pm).

Nov 3 - While the day can start off with a good, practical plan, don't be surprised by a tendency to overdo every-thing you're involved with. The 'will' and the emotions are coming up against each other, so forget about plans to work well with others and enjoy harmony and cooperation. 

(Cancer Moon trines Saturn in Scorpio at 7:45 am; Venus in Libra falls into a Grand Cross with the Moon, Uranus and Pluto). 

Nov 5 - Keep good thoughts and good company this evening, so as to be open to the inspiration and creativity.

(Leo Moon squares Saturn at 7:00 pm, but comes into a positive Grand Trine with Mercury (Sagittarius) and Uranus (Aries) from 7:45 - 10:00 pm)

Nov 6:  ELECTION DAY!

Positive vibes around this morning...Vote early...Mercury goes retrograde at 3:00 pm.

 (Leo Moon sextiles Venus in Leo at 9:15 am).

Nov 7 - An energetic influence comes in this morning, with both candidates expressing their certainty of being the winner. However, Moon goes Void until 8:35 pm, which can hold up the results).

(Leo Moon trines Sagittarius Mars at 7:25 am).

Nov 8 - Spacy mental energy meets us upon waking this morning, so we might find ourselves puttering around, until we have to find our focus, but mid morning ushers in a focused, productive influence.  It's the late evening that brings the bonus aspect, filled with harmony, benevolence and not to mention, a financially lucky inlfuence.

(Virgo Moon squares Sag. Mercury at 4:00 am; Moon trines Pluto at 10:15 am.  Venus in Libra trines Jupiter in Gemini at 11:30 pm)

Nov 10: There's those crazy Uranus aspect again, causing ruckus.  Not inclined toward cozying up with another.  Always on the fringe of being accident prone, so slow down if you're on the freeway during the Uranus-Moon opposition.

(Moon squares Uranus at 10:00 am and square Pluto at 2:30 pm).

Nov 11:  A great day to take advantage of such lovely social aspects, perhaps having Sunday brunch out with  family and friends.

(Libra Moon trines Jupiter at 1:15 am, conjuncts Venus at 6:15 am.)

Nov 12:  Somewhat deep emotional influences today, set the stage for quiet, alone time, especially in the morning hours.  We can become 'moody' with this much water energy around, and because it is also building toward tomorrow's Solar Eclipse in Scorpio,  

On another note, these energies can help us tune in deeply with ourselves, making this a good time for inner work.

(Scorpio Moon trines Neptune in Pisces at 3:45 am, and goes on to conjunct Saturn at 10:30 am, and then sextile Pluto at 3:30 pm).

Nov 13:  Solar Eclipse in Scorpio.  See Lunar Activity. 

The deep energies of the eclipse can result in feeling ungrounded and listless, so that we can't quiet figure out what we need.  This lends itself to honoring our need to be still and inwardly focused.  

(Sagittarius Mercury squares Neptune in Pisces, exact at 4:00 pm).

Nov 14: - Fuzzy mental influences are about early this morning, but clarity and action are in place mid morning.

(Moon-Mercury conjunction in Sagittarius squares Neptune in Pisces 2:30 - 3:30 am; Moon trines Uranus at 10:45 am).

Nov 15: Give yourself a little treat this afternoon and do something nurturing for yourself. How does a decaf latte sound, or perhaps picking up some great rose salts for your bath this evening. If you're one who likes to burn the midnight oil, just know you can may get carried away surfing the net until the wee hours.

(Sag. Moon sextiles Libra Venus at 2:30 pm; Moon conjuncts Mars in Sagittarius 1:45 am on Nov 16).

Nov 16: Practical Capricorn rules today. Just when things are lined up perfectly and we have our focus, along comes an adolescent Uranus aspect, tearing down our carefully placed structure and insisting on some physical activity. 

Mars enters Capricorn today, where it remains through December 24, lending itself to focused energy and productivity.  This is great placement for achieving personal goals.

(Moon in Capricorn squares Uranus at 10:32 am).

Nov 17:  Penetrating mental energy draws us toward focusing on a project, which we prefer to do alone.  This is a good influence for writing. As we're working away at the task at hand, our emotional process is also quietly working in the background, 'defragging' our emotions.

(Sun-Mercury conjunct in Scorpio at 7:45 am).

Nov 19:  Give yourself a little extra time and space this morning before meeting your day...otherwise you can feel rushed and put upon.

(Aquarius Moon squares Mercury in Scorpio).

Nov 20:  Subtle energies surround us today, so we may feel sensitive, slow and somewhat reluctant to face the world.  An early evening influence settles down our feelings.

(Pisces Moon trines Venus in Scorpio at 5:30 am and conjuncts Neptune at 9:30 am; Moon trines Saturn in Scorpio at 7:00 pm)

Nov 21:  Sun enters Sagittarius and Venus enter Scorpio, a lovely play of light and shadow. 

Nov 22: 

 .
 

You may remember powerful and insightful dreams upon waking this morning. A Pisces Moon is Void all day until 5:00 pm, calling on us to take the day at a leisurely pace and enjoy hanging out. Of course it's easy to overindulge.(Venus in Scorpio trines Neptune at 1:00 am).

Nov 23:  Cattie corner to the laid back influences of yesterday, get ready for some intense influences this morning. We have things to do and places to go.

(Mars in Capricorn squares Uranus in Aries at 2:00 am.  Moon squaries Uranus at 10:30 am and conjuncts Pluto at 3:15 pm).

NOTE: If you are planning on traveling today, it may be worth your while to contemplate waiting until tomorrow, to avoid delays on freeways and at major airports.)

Nov 25:  Taurus Moon is the perfect anecdote to stress, as it lends itself to nurturing the body and moving at your own pace.  However, there's a build up to the Saturn-Venus conjunction in Scorpio tomorrow evening, so we can feel the flurries of this, this afternoon, when tricky emotions can creep up on us, contributing to feeling out of sorts for awhile.  Evening hours bring solution, as we step into getting things done.

(Moon opposes Saturn-Venus conjunction in Scorpio, 1:45 - 4:45 pm).  Moon trines Mars and Pluto 6:00 - 8:30 pm)

Nov 26: There's a welcome shift of energy for the better this morning and then MERCURY GOES DIRECT mid afternoon. But watch that early evening influence which carries emotional density. Sometimes in order to not feel the feelings, we can pick on the person closest to us.

(Sag. Sun trines Uranus at 6:15 am;  Venus conjuncts Saturn at 6 degrees of Scorpio).

Nov 27:  A thrust of energy can come about at lunch time today.  We need to be active, but keep your eye on the  'obsessive-complusive' flavor around this duo. We can overdo whatever we're doing.  This is part of the build up of energy toward tomorrow's Lunar Eclipse.

(Mars conjunct Pluto in Capricorn at 8 degress of Capricorn).

Nov 28:  Lunar Eclipse in Gemini.  See Lunar Activity.

Lots of good communication energies about today.  Look for expansive, philosophical, energizing and creative ideas late afternoon.

(Venus sextiles Pluto at 8 am and Moon conjuncts Jupiter in Gemini at 5:00 pm).

Nov 29: A penetrating mid afternoon influence helps with checks and balances regarding our self effort towards personal goals.

(Scorpio Venus sextiles Mars in Capricorn).

Nov 30: Emotional sensitivity present today with Moon in Cancer, which calls upon us to rest when we need to.
