End of October, Beginning of November 2024 Astrology Report

Ok so first of all this year flew! How are we at the end of it! Looking back how was your year? Did you do what you wanted to? Now is your chance to finish the year strong!

October 22nd the Sun moves into Scorpio. This is the deepest and spookiest time of the year. We often go inside at this time of the year. Scorpio also asks us to go inside and get to know ourselves better.  It makes total sense that Scorpio rules over Halloween! Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and Mars. This sign is a powerhouse. They are a water sign, but if you ask me, they are the fire sign among the sensitive water sighs. They are bold and blunt. They are intense with how they feel. They are also mysterious though so you may never really know how they feel. Overall, they value security and safety and do almost anything for self-preservation. Scoprio is the psychologist of the zodiac. Theya re great at digging deep and figuring things out. They make great researchers as well. They are a very intuitive and psychic sign. Don’t lie to a Scorpio or they will know. They get along best with the other Water and Earth signs. Happy Birthday Scorpio!

November 1st there is a New Moon in Scorpio so joining Mercury in Scorpio as well the Moon will bring us deeper into our intuition. It is time to go with your gut. What do you need to do to feel successful this year. The Scorpio vibe will help you think deeply and figure it out.  New Moons are always a great time to start new things!

November 2nd Mercury rolls into Sagittarius and we can all think on our toes. Mercury represent how we communicate, learn, and think. Mercury in Sagittarius is a deep thinker! They enjoy long chats about their philosophy and sharing what they think with others. They make wonderful teachers and are always up to learn something new. They are ever curious!! Like a cat! This is a great time for us all to learn something new and exciting!

November 3rd Mars enters Leo. Mars represents our motivations, desires, and is the planet of action. In fire sign Leo, Mars is courageous, active, and a bit of a show off. They are dare devils and love to get admiration from others. They can be a bit vein and money oriented. They like shiny things and will work for jewelry.  They are bold lovers as Mars does rule our sexual desire. They will do any trick to make their lovers toes curl. As long as they feel adored by them in return. This can be a very spicy transit.

November 11th Venus enters Capricorn. Venus represents our love lives. Venus is how we show love and how we receive love. Venus can also point to a person’ social lives and if they are well off financially. This is a very fortunate placement to handle money well. In love they can marry up in life and expect their partner to be a responsible, hard worker. They have high standards and if you fail to meet them it is on to the next! This is a good time to evaluate if you are getting what you deserve in your love life. If not, it may be time to have a chat with your lover!

November 15th Saturn moves out of Retrograde in Pisces. If you have lacked motivation and the ability to stick to it, whatever it is since the end of June, now is your time to refocus. Saturn asks us to do the hard work to reap the reward. Have you been putting in the work? It is a great time to reassess your efforts towards your goals. Plans will flow at this time as long as you put the effort in.

The same day we see a Full Moon in Taurus. Taurus is an Earth sign and the Moon here feels their emotions in a grounded and sensual way. They have a great understanding of their values though they can tend to hold on to emotions, things, and even people far too long. This is the hording Moon of the zodiac that needs to work hard to let go of what no longer serves them. At thus Full Moon, it is a great time for all of us to assess what we need to let go of. Conjunct Uranus, there can be some unexpected emotions that pop up for us all that we need to sort through. This can be an erratic Full Moon. Expect some unexpected news.

November 19th Pluto enters Aquarius and stays there for good! We have seen Pluto retrograde back into Capricorn a few times, but at this time it is full force ahead in this very humanitarian sign. Pluto is a slow moving, generational planet that can very much point to prominent themes within the collective. In Aquarius Pluto will weed out that which does not serve us by revealing secrets. Society and the social hierarchy can see big shifts as Pluto moves into Aquarius, the sign ruling social relationships.

Stay Tuned for the Astrology of the rest of November...

August 2024 Astrology Report

August will be bringing some distressing and exciting astrology transits and

planetary shifts. It is Leo season. Leo is a fire sign and Leo SZN is bringing

the heat. Tensions will rise towards the middle of the month. Mark the week

of the 14th and 15th on your calendars for some intense energy!

8/4/24 New Moon in Leo: The Sun and Moon link up in Leo bringing us a

New Moon. This New Moon will be full of passionate and creative vibes.

Take time, as at all New Moons, to plan ahead for new adventures and

projects. Motivation will be at a high level with a sextile to Mars! Leo highlights our need to express ourselves, so don’t be shy about being exactly who you are!

8/4/24 Venus enters Virgo: Venus in Virgo is under pressure, under control,

and underrated. Venus in Virgo is self-controlled, perfectionistic, and

always willing to help. Virgo Venus falls head over heels for a quick wit and

good conversation. You gotta be smart to woo this Venus sign! Acts of

service is the way to this Venus placements heart and they will return the

favor with pleasure. If you are dating a Virgo Venus, remember to give

them deserved praise for their hard work because they are always working

hard to make other happy. Virgo Venus has high expectations and can be

nagging at times. Their best matches are Earth and Water signs. They

have been known to get along surprisingly well with Gemini who is ruled by

Mercury as Virgo is.

8/5/24 Mercury Retrograde in Virgo entering Leo 8/14: Time to slow it

down! This year has been moving too fast! This is a good time to stop and

reflect on what you wanted to accomplish and if you have done it. Come up

with some plans to do what you want most in the last months of 2024. Virgo

is a planner, so the Virgo energy will help with this. As always be mindful of

technology glitches and appliances on the fritz. Travel plans can get messy,

and you may need a plan B and C! Have patience with yourself and others

now.

8/14/24 Mars conjunct Jupiter in Gemini: This year has been and is full of

Mars transits. It is a Mars heavy year and with two ongoing wars, and a

recent assassination attempt, it is obvious. Mars is aggressive, violent, and

angry energy. When Mars conjuncts expansive Jupiter, this energy gets

expanded, agitated, and can explode. Tread lightly now. Avoid arguments

when you can. Jupiter is an instigator here. We may all feel annoyed at

small things. I truly hope we avoid the violence we saw last month. This is

very similar energy. It can be just as erratic. My Gemini and Sagittarius

friends out there will feel this most.

8/15/24 Mars and Jupiter Square Saturn: Yikes! So if Mars being conjunct

Jupiter isn’t enough, this square could tip the scales. Saturn brings

stagnant, stoic, and frustrating energy. A square itself is an agitating

aspect. With the violent and angry nature of Mars being expanded by

Jupiter, this square could bring some outbursts. The intense energy of Mars

cannot be controlled. Saturn loves to control. Gemini being involved for me

highlights transportation and communication. We all need to watch our

mouths right now! Don’t say what you will regret later. Drive slower. Walk

slower. I warn you to be cautious now.

8/19 Full Moon in Aquarius: So, I thought that maybe this Full Moon in

humanitarian Aquarius would be a sweet one. Boy was I wrong! The Full

Moon in Aquarius, Sun in Leo, and Uranus in Taurus form a T-Square. This

brings the unexpected. Uranus loves to shake things up and brings random

occurrences you never saw coming. Be on guard. Your emotions also could

be all over the place for now leaving you feeling very much out of control.

There is secondly another T-Square at the same time with Saturn in Pisces

opposing Venus in Virgo forming a square to Mars and Jupiter still conjunct!

Venus is truly the outlier here wishing for love and peace. Mars conjunct

Jupiter squaring Saturn wants a good fight. We will all feel this tension.

Hang tight for about a week till this energy fades.

8/22/24 Sun moves into Virgo: Happy Birthday Virgo! Its time to do some

fall cleaning! Virgo is tidy, organized, and controlled. They like things to be

just so and if you don’t hit them mark, you will know it! Virgo is blunt and

tells it how it is. Go to Libra for some sugar-coated advice. Virgo keeps it

real! They are obsessive about making things better than they were. They

are the secondhand shoppers of the zodiac. They take what they found and

put a crafty spin on it to make it better than it was before. Though they are

known to nag, it is only because they care. Virgo is quick witted with a

sharp intellect. If they don’t have the answer they will find it. If you can

handle their bold honesty, they make a wonderful friend.

8/28/24 Mercury Retrograde ends! Mercury will move forward in Leo and

back into Virgo. What have you learned?

8/29/24 Venus enters Libra: Venus is at home in the sensual sign of Libra.

Those with this placement are naturally creative and have an eye for style.

They are drawn to the arts and love to create art. They love to be wined

and dined and will do the same for you to show their love. They love a good

meal at a fancy restaurant. Their lovers must know quality over quantity is

the way to their heart. They may be a tad superficial, preferring shiny things

to home grown crated gifts. Libra Venus will put you first and is a people

pleaser. They must guard against their kindness being mistaken for

weakness. They must learn that they deserve the love they so often give

away so freely.

Buckle up! August will be a wild ride!

Cancer Season is Strutting its Stuff!

Cancer Season is Coming!

The time to cuddle up with your loved ones on the couch with your cats and dogs has arrived, though the summer weather may have you desiring something more! Cancer is a sweet water sign that reminds us to nurture ourselves as much as we nurture others. Ruled by the Moon, Cancer’s moods can shift with the wind. They are intuitive, compassionate, and mothering. They can at times be smothering and though this is how they show they care. Though others can have a hard time understanding their depth. Don’t lie to a Cancer, they will see right through you. If you are lucky enough to have a Cancer in your life, do not take them for granted or they will be shell on and be gone with the tide.

Venus enters emotional Cancer 6/17. This Venus sign is sentimental, and shows love with romantic gestures. This is a very feminine placement that can easily woo the one they want. They can come off to their lovers as sensual, sweet, and caring. They know how their lover feels with a glance and can transform to meet their needs in an instant. They can be moody. They can be overbearing with their love for some and are not for anyone who doesn’t take love seriously. They are devoted and loyal. When Venus is in Cancer it is a good time for us all to look at how we nurture ourselves and those we love. It is a good time to remind ourselves that we need some self-love to be ready to open up to the love we receive from others.

Mercury also enters Cancer on 6/17 bringing an intuitive and sentimental flavor to the words we all say. Those with Mercury in Cancer learn best through the emotional experiences they have. They may not remember all the details of a situation, but will remember how it made them feel. They are very much able to read a room and do what is needed to keep those around them happy. What is said by Mercury in Cancer is heartfelt and can at times be a tad dramatic. In fact, at times those with a lot of Cancer in their chart can come off as dramatic as Leo’s! They feel so deeply that it comes out in every expression they make. Especially for those with Mercury in Cancer. Don’t pull any fast ones with this Mercury sign as they will see right through you. They may not always say how they feel or what they think due to being a tad shy, but when they do communicate with you, you will feel their depth of emotion flowing.  

The Sun follows Venus and Mercury into the sign of the crab on 6/20/24 and we have a Stellium in Cancer! Get the Kleenex! We will all feel a little emotional. Cancer season reminds us to check our emotions. There is a side to Cancer though, very much like the crab they are represented by, defensive and tough! They aren’t always crying saps. They can be very much defensive survivors who have been through it all. They can also be the life of the party with a great sense of humor and a table to dance on. Get to know a Cancer. They may just surprise you!

Some issues to work on during Cancer SZN: Are you feeling something that has been unaddressed? What are you repressing? Have you not taken the time to even check in with how you are feeling? Now is the time to do it! This is also a good time to be around those who make you feel most comfortable. Take a moment and call your mother or check in with those you love most.

Cancers are most compatible with those with Earth and Water sign placements. Pisces and Cancer make a dreamy match. Taurus and Cancer are home bodies and can enjoy hours lounging and cuddling together. Virgo and Cancer can be very successful. Aries and Aquarius can make for wonderful friends with Cancer as they can help them see life from a whole different view.

Happy Birthday Cancer!
