There’s so much going on in November 2018. I’ll briefly touch on some things that are important, but I want my focus to be on the New Moon and on Jupiter.
Uranus will retrograde back into Aries until March 2019. Of course, it all depends on where Aries is in your chart. If you are a Libra sun for example, then Aries is in your seventh house of partnerships and relationships. So you’ve probably been going through some significant change. And they were probably sudden and unexpected. Uranus will go back into Taurus from March 2019 until 2025. And then the focus will be on value and our relationship with money and luxury.
The moon nodes are also shifting from Leo/Aquarius to Cancer/Capricorn. Moon nodes are location points on the moon – north and south. And they shift every 18 months. They’re about karma and karmic lessons and lessons from past lives. If you’re a Cancer or Cap, the next 18 months may feel fated, or have some strong karmic lessons for you.
But what I want to talk about is the new moon in Scorpio on November 7, 2018. New moons are all about new beginnings. An ideal time to set forth an intention and to allow the universe to help manifest it into reality. And Scorpio is the most intense sign of the zodiac. So if it’s something you feel very strongly about or if you want to begin something that is, well…intense, this is a great time to do it.
This new moon is also in a nice aspect/placement to Neptune and Pluto. The Neptune aspect will make the new moon (and the few days before and after the lunation) have a magical, day dreamy quality to it. Like a fantasy. No complaints there. Pluto is hanging around to help add a little stability to all of this.
And Jupiter is also shifting signs. Jupiter has been in Scorpio for the past 13 months and he will move on to Sagittarius for the next 13 months. Jupiter isn’t at ease in Scorpio. My guess is Scorpio is just too intense for Jupiter. But Jupiter rules Sagittarius. So it’s like visiting your aunt and uncle you see once every 5 years somewhere across the country and you can’t sit on the furniture or put the glass on the table unless there’s a coaster (because it will leave a mark….heaven help us all). And going home to your own parent’s house. Or, your own house. Where you can go in the fridge and eat whatever you want and put your feet on the furniture.
Jupiter is a giver. The benefic of the skies. Where Jupiter is, he brings gifts, luck, expansion and growth. Sagittarius people should be loving the next 13 months. Jupiter usually transits a sign a year or so after Saturn goes through. So it’s like the universe tests you with Saturn and then blesses you for your putting up with it with Jupiter. It all evens itself out. The universe has an amazing way of keeping things in balance.
We’re in the middle of a Venus retrograde. She will go direct around November 16. But just as she moves forward, Mercury will start to retrograde. The one thing these two retrogrades have in common (other than they are relatively quick transits, because they are inner planets) it’s that they can bring exes back into our lives. People returning. So be mindful of that. I’m not saying it’s good or bad exactly…just be mindful of it. And if nothing else, just wait until these two retrogrades are over with. See if the ex (or person) remains. If they do, the relationship (or friendship or partnership) may have some longevity to it.
Having said that, we kick off 2019 with eclipses. Starting a new year with things being eclipsed out. It will be interesting to see how that year progresses. And if you think about it, maybe that’s not a horrible way to start a new year. To start it getting rid of the things that no longer serve us or help us on our soul evolution. Eclipses are pretty powerful, though. Like a full moon (also an ideal time for endings and closure) on steroids.
Let’s just welcome in this New Moon in Scorpio and Jupiter going home for 13 months. Those two things will benefit all of us in some way in our lives. It’s time to be open to receive blessings and new beginnings…
Be open to what calls you…
