Daily Cosmic Calendar for November 18th

There have been three stations by celestial bodies already in November (Mercury, Neptune and Chiron) and, two days from now, Pallas takes its turn being in the spotlight. Issues concerning problem-solving and strategy sessions will become increasingly important over the next 48+ hours.  In the meantime, the Moon in Capricorn leaves void status to enter the universal air sign of Aquarius (4:11AM PST). It’s now the right time of the month to energize group projects, team sports, community events, and global causes close to your heart and idealistic beliefs.  With Venus making an inspirational, 72-degree rapport with Pluto (9:19AM PST), your creative artistic juices are really flowing. Try your hand at unusual crafts and hobbies. With the Moon contacting high-tech ruling Uranus via a supportive, 60-degree alliance (12:31PM PST), it is a good afternoon to visit stores that specialize in state-of-the-art electronic gadgets.  Reading, writing and advanced studies in esoteric philosophy, astrology, numerology and kindred subjects are highlighted this evening as the Moon approaches a flowing trine with Jupiter (forming exactly at 2:49AM PST tomorrow morning).
