This is a month of thoughtful consideration and passionate responses, Libra, involving a better understanding of your beliefs and values and as well relationship transformation. The Scorpio New Moon that takes place on November 1st features Mars, ruler of your partnership sector, in close direct opposition to Pluto, signifying that this entire month is likely to be a time of change regarding one or more of the key relationships in your life, with implications also for your own evolutionary journey into greater wholeness. With Pluto on the cusp of your sector of creative self-expression, crossing into Aquarius by the 19th, the productions of your mind and heart are also subject to constructive changes that align with new intuitional insights about what you are currently up to. In the timing of the Taurus Full Moon of November 15th, issues of self and other could further come to a head. Revelations could also come suddenly, and then be the subject of introspective musings as Mercury eases into its retrograde period that formally begins on the 25th. You do well to stay practical and cool-headed through it all, recognizing that everything will very likely come out all right in the end, although this is perhaps easier said than done
The following was written by our guest columnist Elodie St-Onge Aubut of Ninth House Astrology
The New Moon in Scorpio at the beginning of the month takes place in the sector of your chart that relates to your resources. This could be material resources and money but more broadly this New Moon could be an invitation to nurture your profound reservoir of strength, resilience, and wisdom that you have for yourself inside, because you may be richer than you think! And this might be especially so in the currency that the world needs right now. Mars, your opposite sign’s traditional ruler is opposed Pluto in this New Moon, so that there is partnership transformation that is coming up for you this entire month and it could include your whole relationship dynamic undergoing a metamorphosis. Mars in Cancer opposing Pluto in Capricorn on the edge of your creative sector could emphasize the end of an era or the beginning of a new one. Then, too, Venus that is your own sign’s ruler is opposed to Jupiter right now, perfecting on the 3rd, and this brings optimism and thoughtful participation in the underground currents of your destiny.
Your ambitions, goals, and friendship associations, along with who you want to be, could be changing as Mars in Leo from the 3rd is slowing down in preparation for its retrograde beginning on December 6th. Mars transiting retrograde in Leo next month could highlight people or a community from your past although it may only serve to emphasize some disparities and fuel a desire to invest more wholeheartedly in your personal or creative trajectory.
Mercury is transiting in Sagittarius all month as well, beginning on the 2nd, and is slowing down to turn retrograde in the last full week of November; if you find yourself quite busy with menial or tedious tasks, keep in mind that each step in your process is necessary for the accomplishment of your larger goals. The big changes that you seek are also seeking you but you might have to meet them halfway with continued sustained efforts especially in the next two months of the Mercury Retrograde and its aftermath.
The Full Moon lands in Taurus on November 15th and also the Moon in this configuration forms a close conjunction with Uranus, further illuminating business or intimate partnerships and the agreements within them. In this regard, there might be surprises You might feel a need to consolidate or solidify an arrangement, and yet this could be a pretty wild ride, bringing forward your own internal principles and contrasting with those of partners or of the consensus thinking in the environment around you. You may have to contend with a lot of unknown or resistance coming from others especially as Venus in Capricorn forms a tense aspect with the Nodes of the Moon in Libra and Aries at this time.
On November 21st, the Sun enters Sagittarius and forms a supportive aspect with Pluto in Aquarius which brings momentum and a stronger need to communicate your ideas with the world.
The Last Quarter Moon in Virgo on November 22nd is a significant marker, bringing unconscious contents of your psyche further into the light of day and creating a sense of contrast between these very different points of view that are equally significant factors in your life purpose.
Mercury in the last third of Sagittarius turns retrograde on November 25th in aspect with Chiron, the Wounded Healer, in your partnership sector. The weeks that follow, through to the ending of the year, are introspective ones where you might find yourself dealing with relationship wounds that interfere with smooth sailing in this important area. Although you may feel impatient to get moving with your ideas, the next five and a half weeks could be used to diligently revise and refine what you need to be working on in as you move forward with your evolutionary development.
