I see a lot of clearing of the negative energies mid-month. Lockdown is a perfect word to describe the Jupiter/Saturn/Pluto conjunction we have been experiencing this year. Remember Saturn rules limits and restrictions. Pluto rules destruction and regeneration and Jupiter has been escalating the energies of these planets. But I am optimistic because Mercury is turning direct early this month and in the second half we will be seeing the last of Jupiter conjunct Pluto (extremism). On Nov 15th a brilliant New Moon at 23 degrees of Scorpio is in a glowing positive aspect to Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto. Both Saturn and Jupiter are moving away from Pluto and are approaching each other in the sky when they will meet up in Aquarius right before the solstice.
The closer we get to the end of November the brighter things are becoming. Neptune stops going retrograde at the end of November. Neptune rules viruses so I’m going out on a limb here and say that I’m very hopeful that covid19 will get weaker or that we will find a cure. But, we may not be totally out of the woods until January 2021. Things could get worse the first half of the month before they get better after that I am seeing a slow turn around toward the positive beginning to happen.

As for the Presidential Election in the US, I am suffering from campaign fatigue. I wish we had a law whereby no one could campaign until six months before the election. It would save a lot of money and keep us from the constant media barrage that seems to last forever. The corporate-owned media keeps saying how divisive America is right now, but where does the divisiveness come from--of course, the media. I have unplugged cable but the election news creeps in somehow even when I check the weather on my IPad.
Reading the signs tells me there will be a lot of anger and commotion around Election Day that may not end until the middle or end of November. Mars who rules anger turns direct in Aries on the 13th but he can still stir up trouble until he leaves Aries on Jan 6, 2021. Mars along with other signs are a few indications that the election results may be dragged through the courts or congress until January.
The reason I predict a truly messed up Election Day is that Mercury is stopping in the sky on November 3rd in order to turn direct. Planets are much more powerful when they are stationary. Mercury is the Roman name for the Greek god Hermes and when he was only a day old, he put his sandals on backward so no one could follow him; he can be a deceptive little con artist. We may see some tricky deals as he is in a square to Pluto, (the criminal element)-- so the con artist is joining the criminals. Some underhanded shiftiness is going on. The candidate who gets the most votes may not be the one who becomes president.

Before I dive into the details of November, I want to mention the Full Moon at 8 Taurus/Scorpio that happened on Oct 31. Full Moons are in effect 4 or 5 days before and after the date when it is exact. So we may not be totally clear of this disruptive energy until Nov 4. This is a humdinger of a Full Moon because it conjuncts and opposes Uranus. Watch for revelations, shocks, and changes in direction and also physical, political, and social earthquakes. Stay calm if you have personal planets or the ascendant at 6 to 10 degrees of Scorpio or Taurus.
++++++++
Don’t miss my report for December when we will see a big shift of energy out of Capricorn and into Aquarius.
Dates to Watch:
Note to my Astrology Clients. Use your Planetary Placement and Ascendant Sheet to find if the following transits will have a major impact on you.
Nov 1 – Mercury Square Saturn at 26 Libra/ Capricorn. Watch out for current events to throw your mind out of kilter. Practice mindfulness especially if you have personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars) or the ascendant at 24 to 28 Libra or Capricorn.
Nov 3 – Mercury stops in the sky at 26 Libra and turns direct. For the election, watch for mislaid ballots, miscounted ballots, and ballots lost in the mail. I think there will be a recount since Mercury rules all words starting with re-. The election may be delayed or the results won’t be decided for some time.
Nov 6 – Mercury Square Saturn at 26 Libra/Capricorn. This aspect recurs again, but this time Mercury is moving direct. He is going to speed ahead of Saturn. Mercury and Saturn don’t like each other. Mercury wants to stay loose and Saturn says, “Stop, where do you think you are going”? Starts and stops for those of you with personal planets or the ascendant at 24 to 28 Libra or Capricorn.
Nov 9 – Venus opposite Mars at 15 Libra/Aries. Libra is very warm-hearted and forgiving, Mars likes to impose himself on Venus and take advantage of her innocence. This translates to erratic, hasty actions in love. Watch it if you have personal planets or the ascendant at 13 to 17 Libra or Aries.
Nov 10 – Mercury enters Scorpio until Dec 1. During this time we want to dig out secrets and what we find can lead to fanatical, extreme opinions. What house in your birth chart contains Scorpio? The meaning of this house is where you want to dive deep into research or issues. See the Meaning of the Houses here.
Sun Trine Neptune at 18 Scorpio/Pisces. Take a deep breath, this is a romantic, idealistic aspect. This is a short time where we can really relax. It doesn’t stay around too long so take advantage of it especially if you have personal planets or the ascendant at 16 to 20 Scorpio or Pisces.
Nov 12 – Jupiter conjunct Pluto at 22 Capricorn. This is the third and final transit of Jupiter conjunct Pluto. The first two were on Apr 4, 2020, and Jun 30, 2020. Jupiter can be a very nice guy sometimes; he expands our life in many ways. But here he is expanding Pluto in Capricorn and in Capricorn; Pluto rules the power of the government and corporations. In your personal life, don’t try to enforce your opinions on others. Use this energy for personal transformation for those of you with personal planets or the ascendant at 20 to 24 Capricorn.
Nov 13 – Mars turns direct at 15 Aries. He entered Aries on June 27, 2020, and you can blame him for all of the protests and rioting we have had around the world. Mars is the planet of the angry warrior and Aries is the sign of the angry warrior. While in Aries, he has been squaring the Jupiter/Saturn/Pluto conjunction. Even though he is turning direct to finally leave Aries, he will give us a parting shot and square the three thugs again in December.
Nov 15 – New Moon at 23 Scorpio. A beautiful New Moon bringing us a promise of better times ahead because it is sextile Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto. Being in Scorpio, this New Moon creates the need to delve into your feelings as deep as possible. You desire meaningful emotional exchanges now more than at any other time even if it is not easy and you are forced to change many things. Shallow relationships do not satisfy you, because they are not purifying enough. This New Moon sets up this type of vibration for the following month.
Venus Square Pluto at 22 Libra/Capricorn. Do you know the story of how Persephone was dragged into the underworld by Pluto? Well, today she is stuck down there and can’t get out. Our love life seems stymied. Also, you are being judged or judging others too harshly especially if you have personal planet s or the ascendant at 20 to 24 Libra or Capricorn.
Nov 16 – Venus Square Jupiter at 23 Libra/Capricorn. Jupiter is a better planet to aspect Venus than Pluto. On this one, you just want to eat a pint of ice cream, search the internet for bargains and just pig out on spending money and eating. You’ve got to watch your weight and your wallet if you have personal planets or the ascendant at 21 to 25 Libra/Capricorn.
Nov 17 – Mercury Opposite Uranus at 8 Scorpio/Taurus. You are very cranky, so what if your favorite candidate didn’t win--get over it. No one wants to hear your complaints. You are irritating everyone around you especially if you have personal planets or the ascendant at 6 to 10 Scorpio or Taurus.
Nov 19 – Venus Square Saturn at 27 Libra/Capricorn. Venus is warm and cuddly, Saturn is an icy rock, and it will be like trying to get blood from a stone in your relationships today. Back off if you have personal planets or the ascendant at 25 to 29 Libra or Capricorn.
Nov 21 – Venus enters Scorpio until Dec 15, 2020. This period is all about loyalty, obsession, power, control, and intensity in relationships. Venus likes to flirt, but Scorpio hates anything that is superficial. Get serious. Venus also rules beauty, so we may go out shopping and buy a lot of black sexy clothes.
Sun enters Sagittarius on Dec 21st. Sagittarius along with Leo is a playful sign. Sagittarius wants to have fun and travel and hang out with friends and basically do everything and go everywhere. This period could lighten our mood.
Nov 23 – Mercury Trine Neptune at 18 Scorpio/Pisces. This is another pleasant day, but notice that we only had two this month. You could receive so important correspondence that is very beneficial to you today. Start your fantasy novel if you have personal planets or the ascendant at 16 to 20 Scorpio/Pisces.
Nov 26 – Thanksgiving Day. My favorite holiday, all you need to do is eat. And there are no difficult aspects today to ruin our digestion.
Nov 27 – Venus Opposite Uranus at 7 degrees of Scorpio/Taurus. If you meet the man/woman of your dreams, realize he/she will exit as fast as they came in. Not a very stable day in relationships for those of you with personal planets or the ascendant at 5 to 9 degrees of Scorpio or Taurus.
Nov 30 – Lunar Eclipse at 8 Sagittarius/Gemini. Check the houses in your birth chart that contain Sagittarius and Gemini. There will be a wakeup call in those areas of your life. I will be sending out a separate report on this eclipse and the eclipse on Dec 14.
OUTER PLANET TRANSITS:
JUPITER is now in Capricorn until December 20, 2020. This month Jupiter moves from 21 to 25 degrees of Capricorn. Jupiter is about growth and expansion especially in travel and education and also in the area of your life ruled by the house in your natal chart that contains Capricorn. Jupiter isn’t very happy in Capricorn because he has to get down to business; become responsible, and build a career. Don’t forget about his excessive qualities. In Capricorn, he could work too hard, and be too focused on the material and forget to smell the roses
SATURN is now moving direct and he will move from 26 to 28 degrees of Capricorn this month. If you have the ascendant or any personal planets at 24 to 29 degrees of Capricorn or Cancer, you may be in store for some hard lessons around the issues ruled by the planet and the house the planet is in or rules. While Saturn is in Capricorn he is asking about your ambitions, your career, and your work ethic. In Capricorn, he is right at home and wants to build something. He stimulates you to make plans to be successful in the outer world.
URANUS is in Taurus until Apr 2026. This month he is retrograde and travels from 8 to 7 degrees if Taurus. If you have personal planets or the ascendant at 6 to 9 degrees of Taurus or Scorpio, you will feel a need for freedom and for making some radical changes in your life. I believe in ‘cooperating with the inevitable’. If you have Uranus in a challenging aspect to your ascendant or personal planets, go on a long vacation, move or make some major changes in your life. Taurus is the earth. Expect earth events such as earthquakes and hurricanes during the period that Uranus is in Taurus.
NEPTUNE (creativity, sensitivity, escapism, dreams) is in Pisces until 2026. This month Neptune is retrograde until the 28th stays at 18 degrees all month. A lack of focus, a sense of drifting, or an inability to see a betrayal or disappointment until it's too late can be experienced by those of you with the ascendant or Personal Planets at 16 to 20 degrees of Pisces or Virgo. For the enlightened out there, Neptune can also bring artistic, musical, creative expression, increased dreams, and spiritual insights. Watch for some really inspired films to come out during the time Neptune is in Pisces.
PLUTO is in Capricorn until 2023. This month, Pluto is moving from 22 to 23 degrees of Capricorn all month. Profound changes will be felt especially by those with the ascendant or personal planets at 20 to 25 degrees of Capricorn or Cancer. What needs to die in order to be reborn?
Stay safe and well.
