Venus, Pluto and Uranus
“We are here to awaken from the illusion of our separateness.” Thich Nhat Hanh
The influence of Venus is strong this week as the planet of love, pleasure and beauty moves up to aspect Pluto the planet of transformation and Uranus the planet of freedom and innovation. It is a good week to take a break from habitual ways of thinking about relationships and the way you normally define them. Be aware of your trajectory of evolution. Investigate what other opportunities are present for relating to others in a new way.
Take a good look at how you nurture yourself and your dreams on a deeper level and ascertain if improvements would be beneficial. Set an intention to alter your perspective and move forward in a revived way.
The times we are living in have a revolutionary nature to them – when old, outdated forms of authority are upended. This applies to your inner life as well as your experience of outer events.
It is a good time to harness the winds of change. One of the Sabian symbols for the Venus/ Pluto alignment is, “Circular paths.” Another is, ” In the heat of noon a person takes a siesta.”
A Tarot Card reader or Astrologer should be a wise ally on your life’s journey.
Mars, the North Node and the New Moon
At the time of the New Moon in Scorpio on Wednesday, Mars is at 29 degrees (often referred to in the old texts as “the fated degree”) of Virgo conjunct the North Node. This influence in combination with others can lead to an increase of nervous energy and irritability.
It is best to direct the energy in a positive way. Clean out or organize a space which is correlated to an area of life you want to evolve and set a clear intention about the new direction. The Sabian symbol associated with the 29th degree of Virgo is,”Having an urgent task to complete, a man doesn’t look to any distractions.”

New Moon in Scorpio and Planetary Activity for Week of November 9
“Hope is the thing with feathers.” Emily Dickinson
The Sun aspects beneficent Jupiter harmoniously this week bringing increased optimism and good will. There can be a stronger sense of personal mission and a growth in self confidence. With Chiron’s influence it is a good to time expand beyond the normal view of life experiences and evolve along the lines of personal growth and awareness.
Jupiter and Uranus continue their exact quincunx indicating there can be sudden surprises, unexpected events and the disruption of plans. Do create extra down time and expect that events that occur now are likely to be understood and fully integrated over time rather than in the present.
The New Moon occurs Wednesday November 11 at 19 Scorpio. This deepens perceptions and provides a good opportunity to assess what you feel passionate about and identify the elements that stand in the way. Use the potential for increased clarity to increase self mastery.
The Sabian symbol associated with the New Moon is,”A woman drawing aside two dark curtains that closed the entryway to a sacred pathway.”
Uranus, Jupiter and Chiron
“The winds of grace are always blowing; it is time for us to raise our sails.” Ramakrishna
Uranus, Jupiter and Chiron’s configuration in the sky now – and in and out of influence through the summer – indicates a good time to make dreams or aspirations real. An important part of the process is the ability to maintain faith through the ups and downs of the process. When in doubt, raise the level of your perception. One of the Sabian symbols for this configuration is. “A magic carpet hovers over the depressing reality of life in an industrial area.”
Watch for sudden illumination and breakthroughs.
On Halloween
“The last secular festival remaining in the Western calendar, only Halloween has cleaved to its magical, primordial roots. It is a holiday which fascinates without requiring us to believe anything. Its allure is not intellectual but visceral, dating back to a time when people explored the nonphysical realms – the Other Worlds – as a natural and normal function of human experience ” Jessica Murray
Astrology and Tarot Card Readings
A wise Tarot Card reader or Astrologer is like a fellow traveler on your journey who walks beside you carrying a lantern through a dark wood. Readings provide direction and guidance and offer practical, positive and empowering advice. Ideally a Tarot Card reader or Astrologer should be a trusted ally and adviser on your life path throughout time.
Venus Opposes Chiron at the Full Moon
Full Moon in Taurus
“The act of perception is always open-ended and unfinished.” David Abram
The Moon waxes Full Tuesday October 27 at 3 degrees of Taurus. Uranus opposes Mercury and aspects Saturn leading up to this Full Moon indicating that events and perceptions can occur which shift limiting perceptions and offer a broader, more satisfying view of the future.
This time reminds me of the Nine of Cups in the Tarot deck which depicts a jovial innkeeper. The card was in earlier decks called SATIETY. The sign of Taurus is known for it love of security, stability, good food and comforting surroundings and this time offers a time to reflect on those aspects of your life..
The influences also provide a good time to think about your relationships and your daily routines and rhythms and what improvements you would like to make in those areas. Good health and well being affects perception in very powerful ways.
If you have been busy this is a good time to take some time out to relax and envision or enhance the image of future you would like to create. One of the Sabian symbols for this time is,”An empty hammock.”

Jupiter in Virgo
With Jupiter in Virgo through September 9, 2016 a good rule of thumb is to “take care of the small things and the big things will take care of themselves.” Pay attention to the details of what needs to be done and see them through.
