NOVEMBER 2023 ASTROLOGY LETTER
Hello all you Turkeys. Now here we are, the season of Scorpio, with several sky players all there in what I call the least understood of the 12 signs. Maybe it could be best described as the shadow side of life, unseen power, unspoken words, the mystery, not the death star, although the month ahead may have some thoughts on that.
Now the first few days hold some benign aspects. Savor those. Because soon Mars, in saber tooth mode with the Sun, will be igniting his rage over at Jupiter then Uranus. While musing over these 30 days and especially the new moon of the 13th, it felt like some decisive gavel – hitting -the – pedestal moments, even primal at times . You know what I”m thinking. I really can’t polly – analyze this month. It’s a no holds barred time for the world. Despite the harshness, one slightly favorable aspect does appear appear at the new moon time which I’ve explained below.
Later month’s full moon in Gemini has its own story line but do remember one important fact abut astrology. We all have free will and as it has often been stated, “Astrology impels but does not compel”.
THOUGHTS ON THIS CYCLE:
October 31- November 5th Howloween did have some green lights beaming us into early November so hold onto that treat bag. Then onto Saturday my sky scope sees a red light gearing up and flashing stop! stand back! for Sunday’s fusion contusion day. Daylight savings time goes away , but we do get a 25 hour day. More sleep? News? TV? No, unless you have some Tums or Rolaids on hand for that acid reflux. Scorpio is about depth, as deep as you can go.
Then Saturn goes direct right here, holding its intensity even more so for several days and weeks and in the same degree of zero Pisces.
November 6 – 11th I’m liking later day Monday, through Wednesday with its sensible matchups in the sky. But, heading into the weekend with Mercury moving up to square Saturn for a week or more, won’t help with resolving issues. Further along into the month, Mars will be interacting fractiously with the ring wearer, Saturn. It would appear that harder times are waiting just around the corner. Buckle up.
November 12 – 19th Monday’s new moon (1:16 am pt) so powerful with Mars to Sun and Ceres oppose Uranus, lands in that specific pada of Scorpio called Vishaka, from whence derives the word “vicious”. Now it’s all in relation to other parts of a chart, maybe not always such an odious Sun position in your chart. November 13th is the date I’ve had my eye on for several weeks. With Mars’ tiger teeth bared in all its ferocity in opposition to Uranus, anything can happen, consistent as these aspects are with threats of war.
Now hold on, because right here comes a calming soul spirit vibe to the Sun, Moon and Mars gang over from Neptune and Ceres in Pisces. Could the uplifting quality of this geometry indicate even a slight fraction of kindness from someone, somewhere? Might that those attempts at negotiation, for a pause in bombardments, release of hostages or just anything become hopeful ?
There’s one more. Tuesday the 14th arrives with a tiny happy piece under the Sagittarius Moon beaming happily over at Venus in Libra. It’s short but helpful and offers a brief moment, maybe to resolve issues with certain frenemies. Then Thursday the15th brings on harsher times of anger and reactivity no doubt. Pass over the next two days, but take advantage of Friday’s solid Capricorn moon’s steadiness and drive, so needed!
I don’t mean to sound negative but I must be honest. In terms of world events it must be noted that Saturn’s position is very close to the USA ’s moon which is a sadness and loss aspect known as sadi sati indicating some really difficult times for US.
November 20th It’s President Biden’s birthday, Monday. I’d like to say otherwise but in point of fact, his chart’s birthday return shows that certain issues will have profoundly affected him. His Sun right next to warrior Mars in square to Saturn is not ok. Slightly better is the soul strength and determination delivered by Neptune and Pluto. Anything will be helpful right now.
21st- 25th Thanksgiving time is here and later Tuesday up to midnight, in spite of all this reactivity and confusion, happens to be one of the most auspicious times of the year. This could be be a perfect day to send out resumes, pursue your ambitions or whatever else hits that chord. Thursday is Turkey Day whose moon in Aries bonding with Chiron then Mercury offers some upside to that Saturn creature mistaking the wine for apple juice. But the sparks to conversations and light heartedness are all in with that gregarious moon. Pass the pumpkin pie plate over this way, thank you.
I’m liking Friday’s solid steadiness going back with Tuesday’s light, and if Saturday can get past its moody morning all will be well later day.
November 27 – December 2nd Monday’s Full moon in Gemini Monday (at 1:16 am pst) sits in a four square grand cross. Oh difficult and obstructive is that picture, just as matters would appear to be culminating on planet earth through the end of the year. More personally it reflects differences of opinions. The one helpful bit being the moon in the Gemini part of Rohini, whose cheerful, welcoming vibe later day through Tuesday blends with the harmonious link of Mercury to the lunar nodes, Eris and Venus. It’s as if he’s saying “let’s talk!”. Grand Cross, air to fire trine all together. Somethings are ok, some not.
To be honest, my truest and even slightly optimistic thoughts sit with early January 2024’s friendly planetary lineup of planets in earth signs.
Ok that’s all for now. Armagedda wishes all of you a happy T day because there is a lot to be thankful for.
DAYS OF BEST USE: 6, 14, 15, 17, 21 ( after 2 m pst), 22, 30th (after 12 pm pst)
BIRTHDAYS OF NOTE:?The following birthdays are based on the very close degrees of the Sun, not only a large swath of 1-30 dates for which I could never be specific.
Normally a true birth time will provide an accurate rising sign and degree of the moon, call these the Three Majors. Then we can begin to talk true astrology. The Sun is still very significant for it represents the soul’s manifestation in the outer world, health issues and the house position gets even more specific. Planet, sign, house, is what how we begin. If you’d like to see your own chart for these details just follow the link provided.?www.astrodienst.com

AUGUST 11 – 13th Ok I have to be blunt, Armagedda does not like the hints to your Suns from the raucous new moon of the same dates. Please be very careful, no sky diving! Much later month into early December you get a present from Mercury and Venus!
AUGUST 15 – 17th.. The most interesting piece of Now, is that Karmic passage of Rahu and Ketu, lunar nodes in perfect symmetry to your Suns. When you move into later December there should be a lot to celebrate! A few bumps form Mars near the 18th not fun, be careful

OCTOBER 12- 16th i still waxing on about Ketu crossing over your Suns. It’s karma time as I mentioned last month. You felt it I’m sure first days of October. And later this month, underline 29th, Mercury,Venus and the moon will all bring a piece of happy cake to your table.
OCTOBER 19 – 22nd. Believe it or not, your Suns, and selves, are getting a boost from Saturn, which is not usually the case. So just ignore old Pluto giving out speeding tickets. Late month is full of asteroid gifts, 3 of them! Pallas, Vesta and Juno! “yaay!”
