HeartwingsandFriends.com - Tasha's AstroPlanner (November)

The month begins with Scorpio, the sign of rebirth, regeneration and renewal. This sign also holds the focus for taxes, inheritance, healing, and sexuality, bringing these to the fore in the news and on people's minds. We think about getting ready for winter, refurbishing and restoring dwellings as well as health. A water sign, Scorpio's energy is emotionally charged. On the 22nd the Sun enters Sagittarius bringing a philosophical tone to the atmosphere. This sign is symbolic of hospitality, generosity, education and spirituality. Thanksgiving falls during this sign as does most of our Christmas shopping. How appropriate!

Astrologically much of this November is relatively quiet. The week of the 23rd to the 29th Holds the most energetic aspects and is punctuated by the Full Moon on the 25th. Much of the activity up to that week comes from the sign changes of Mars, Mercury and Venus. These signal a kind of switch in orientation. For instance, on the 13th Mars goes from being in Virgo a materially focused earth sign to Libra an air sign, intellectually focused. This could symbolize less action of a direct nature and more discussion concerning the actions instead.

Mercury, signifying the mind, communications and transportation begins the month in gentle Libra, seeking equality and balance. However it quickly changes to intense Scorpio on the 2nd, now mysteries intrigue us; we want to get to the bottom of things. On 21st it enters jovial Sagittarius: humor and hospitality are on people's minds. Venus symbolic of choices, likes and dislikes begins the month in picky Virgo; practicality rules purchases as well as preference. Then it changes to balance loving Libra on the 9th, and we are inclined to look for what pleases the eye rather than the mind.

The New Moon in Scorpio is on the 11th. For the next two weeks focus on whatever you can do that is of a healing nature, restore relationships that have faltered or seek out what or who you feel passionate about and find ways to embrace it or them. The full Moon in Sagittarius is on the 25th. For the next two weeks focus your energy on refining your philosophy, pruning your guest list, and eliminating your excess, whatever it may consist of. Be generous with what you can and learn the difference between the truly needy and the greedy.

Be mindful of delusion or illusion on the 18th, too hasty choices on the 20th and the 23rd, serious confusion on the 24th, 25th and 26th, and possibly on the 29th. The 2nd holds good energy potential as does the 10th, the 13th, and the 17th. The 24th and 29th could bring help to strengthen their efforts to those who are on the right track. The over all theme for this month is discernment. Look carefully at what is before you in order to judge correctly which way to turn or how to act. This is not a month to be impulsive or too quick to move.
