If you think that Tuesday’s Total Solar Eclipse and Wednesday’s shift by Chiron are ancient history, think again. As indicated on prior dates in this calendar, major celestial alignments and events from the day before or two days before are still percolating in the psychic atmosphere — influencing mega-millions of human beings around the globe. Fortunately, the lunar orb in Sagittarius carries a note of positive thinking, opportunity knocking, and essential optimism. This is certainly reinforced during the monthly Moon-Juno union (7:33AM PST). Energize primary partnerships in a respectful, balanced and harmonious manner. Be more fashion-conscious and check out the latest clothing designs and hair styles. Love vibrations increase in frequency when the Moon forms a supportive, 60-degree tie with Venus (2:30PM PST). However, tensions start to rise shortly after this sky pattern occurs as Venus forms an off-kilter, 150-degree link with Pallas (3:54PM PST), Saturn makes a similar, 150-degree liaison with Uranus (4:28PM PST) while Mercury parallels Pluto (6:44PM PST). Ouch! These three challenging alignments — happening within three hours — can easily cast a pall over the rest of the day and send you to a corner of the school room with a dunce cap on your head. Don’t go on an egocentric tear or push your agenda at all cost. The past (Saturn) and future (Uranus) are clashing, and problem-solving is more difficult than usual. Strive for greater objectivity, peace of mind and serenity to get through this 24-hour time-period relatively unscathed.
Mind over matter is an early theme as the Moon in Scorpio merges with Mercury (which has just retreated back into the same sign) at 2:40AM PST. At this moment, a very short void lunar cycle occurs until 2:54AM PST when the lunar orb enters upbeat, enthusiastic Sagittarius. You can breathe a sigh of relief once the Moon is in this ninth sign of the zodiac that has much to do with outdoor adventures, athletics, higher education and reaching long-range goals. Your problem-solving skills are enhanced — courtesy of a flowing trine in water signs from the Sun to Pallas (5:28AM PST). Repressing vital emotions is a no-no with the Sun making a frictional, 45-degree tie with distant Pluto (10:03AM PST), but you should be able to recover nicely by activating your exalted intuition in concert with a Moon trine to Uranus (10:43AM PST). The number one star attraction of the day strides on to center stage when Chiron becomes stationary and shifts from reverse to direct at 5 degrees of Pisces (12:39PM PST). The whole day is actually influenced by this intensification from the comet-like celestial body associated with healing old wounds, bridge-building between heaven and earth, mavericks, catalysts, shamans, higher dimensions of consciousness, twilight zones, deja vu experiences, UFOs and ETs, soul-searching, meditation, affirmations, oracles, the aura and sacred dance. It is wise to learn more about holistic healing and advances in alternative medicine. Fooling around with investments this evening is taboo as the Sun forms an off-kilter, 150-degree tie with Vesta (10:20PM PST).
Being too assertive in the early hours is bound to create fatigue and stress since the dark-of-the-moon vibrations are reaching a crescendo. This extreme, waning lunar energy is good for resting, sleeping and meditating, but not terrific for taking great leaps forward. It would be advisable to gear up for tomorrow’s Chiron station and shift in Pisces — from reverse to direct. Helping you build bridges of trust and faith with dear ones, friends and neighbors is a subtle and yet still supportive, 30-degree link from Chiron to Uranus (9:24AM PST). The Scorpio New Moon (2:09PM PST) is followed four minutes later (2:13PM PST) by a Total Solar Eclipse at 22 degrees of Scorpio. Nearly simultaneously, Venus makes a potent, 135-degree liaison with Chiron (2:12PM PST). This implies that millions of human souls are hurting, but also looking to their fellow earthlings for guidance, nurturing and support. Use your words to heal — not harm. Find novel ways to assist the truly needy and disenfranchised. Accentuate crystal clear thinking to offset fuzzy analysis of reality as Mercury squares Neptune (4:04PM PST). With Mercury in reverse and Neptune barely in the plus column of direct motion, it is easy to swoon into a state of confusion and internal chaos that can lead you astray from key goals and plans. Adding to the strange dynamics going on right now is Mercury heading back into Scorpio (11:43PM PST) until December 10.
This is a good point in this calendar to remind you that solar, planetary alignments and celestial events that happen on one day don’t necessarily disappear the following day. Therefore, last night’s Neptune station and powerhouse at 1 degree of Pisces is still making waves throughout humanity. This Neptunian wave can equate with many of yesterday’s archetypes and themes still being played with great magnification. Of course, today’s actual alignments are a top priority and this includes an early inspirational rapport coming from the Moon in Libra trine to Jupiter in Gemini (1:14AM PST) and a wonderful, enriching Moon-Venus union (6:14AM PST) that may be associated with a rise in loving sensitivity between dear ones. This glowing sense that anything is possible and that favorable vibes are in control may be an illusion because the Moon parallels Saturn (11:54AM PST), Mercury makes an abrasive, 45-degree link to Venus (12:13PM PST), the Sun forms a feisty, 135-degree contact with revolutionary Uranus (4:22PM PST) while the Moon parallels Neptune (5:27PM PST). This quartet of sky patterns can certainly rattle your nerves — especially the Sun-Uranus interaction. A Moon-Mars supportive, 60-degree liaison (9:14PM PST) attempts to remedy the situation and create an aura of vitality and strength, but this aspect also begins a six-hour, lunar void zone that lasts until 3:11AM PST tomorrow morning when the Moon enters the intense waters of Scorpio. Keep overnight decision-making to the bare minimum to avoid compounding mistakes
Six days ago, Mercury and Saturn hooked up via a subtle, 30-degree aspect when Mercury was moving forward. Now — with the Messenger of the Gods planet in reverse — the same alignment occurs at 9:24AM PST. Reflect on the wisdom teachings of a respected mentor or adviser. Don’t be surprised if health concerns are front and center right now under Virgo Moon. Stock up on natural foods, vitamins and minerals, herbs, nuts, seeds and seasonings. Even though the psychic atmosphere is filled with extra intensity as the Moon is contra-parallel Venus (10:55AM PST), squares Jupiter (10:24PM PST) and parallels Uranus (11:17PM PST), breakthroughs on the artistic, literary and publishing fronts can still occur — thanks to a trine in air signs between Venus and Jupiter (11:27PM PST). If you are sensing a rise in personal, partnership and even societal confusion, you are undoubtedly picking up on this Saturday’s Neptune turnaround — from retrograde to direct — in Pisces. Strive to tap into the positive Neptune themes of idealism, spiritual maturity, artistic genius and selfless service during the next few days.
If you are looking for a silver lining in the recent cloud cover, you may be disappointed. It is helpful that the Moon leaves void status in Gemini by entering Cancer (12:44AM PDT). Home and family interests wax in power over the next two days. Overall productivity can climb in your main fields of expertise while healing forces are back on the march — thanks to the Moon forming a flowing trine with Chiron (10:57AM PDT). However, Venus and Mercury decide to play cosmic spoiler roles as they make turbulent waves with two of the three outer planets. Venus forms a frictional contra-parallel with Uranus (7:52AM PDT) while also making an intensity-creating square to distant Pluto (10:28AM PDT). Love bonds and business deals are on shaky grounds. Meanwhile, communications and travel plans may experience delays or disruptions as Mercury forms an off-kilter, 150-degree to the largest asteroid Ceres (3:27PM PDT). Cooking and baking can keep you busy and out of trouble during the evening hours. Immerse yourself in a bestseller, biography or film classic as the Moon approaches a trine with the Sun in water signs (forming exactly at 1:38AM PDT tomorrow morning).
Although we act in a rational manner today, common sense isn’t the only viable solution. The pragmatic Taurus Moon helps us stabilize our lives, but our emotions are quite active now that the Sun creates a cooperative sextile with passionate Pluto. We may think we can contain our feelings, yet we might not be able to avoid getting hooked into an intense drama with a few surprising twists and turns from the Moon’s aspects to Uranus and Pluto.
Aries Horoscope
(Mar 21 – Apr 19)
Watch your spending today since it will be all too easy to make a foolish purchase that is based upon a whim. Instead of buying an item that just gives you an endorphin rush, invest in something more meaningful. Using your time and money to learn a new skill is wiser than distracting yourself with pleasure in the present moment.
Taurus Horoscope
(Apr 20 – May 20)
You will feel better about your productivity if you don’t waste too much energy today on details that won’t matter in the long run. The Moon in your earthy sign reminds you of the importance of following through with your commitments. However, you can still derive pleasure by consciously opening your senses to enjoy good smells, sights and sounds, even while getting your work done.
Gemini Horoscope
(May 21 – Jun 20)
Think about the consequences before you open your mouth or click on the send button, since it’s all too tempting to share what’s on your mind today and then quickly regret it. Inappropriate gossip or incorrect information can now slip right past your mental security guard, so practice self-restraint to avert unnecessary trouble. Use your quick wit to spread a positive message wherever you go.
Cancer Horoscope
(Jun 21 – Jul 22)
Your desire to please your friends and family might provoke complicated explanations that don’t lead anywhere positive. Spend your time with people who will accept you without requiring a song and dance. You may be better off leaving the verbal justifications for another day since there’s just too much going on now to fit it all into words.
Leo Horoscope
(Jul 23 – Aug 22)
You naturally see yourself as in charge because others so often look to you for leadership. However, you may not want to take on additional responsibility at this time because there are so many things that already feel out of your control. Instead of making yourself crazy by trying to handle more work, you could be happier going your own way for a while. You don’t always have to live up to someone else’s expectations if you’re living up to your own.
Virgo Horoscope
(Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You enjoy learning effective ways to get ahead, and usually you are quite a dedicated student. Unfortunately, your desire for such knowledge might not be fully satisfied today. Try as you might, the information you acquire now doesn’t seem logical. You can turn your mind in every direction to make sense of what’s happening, but this may not be the best time to stick to your regular routine. Be open to change and return to the tried and true only when you run out of options.
Libra Horoscope
(Sep 23 – Oct 22)
You often enjoy being the accommodating one in a relationship, yet you expect others to return the favor on occasion. After all, it seems fair to compromise for the sake of harmony. Now, however, you may run into someone who is particularly stubborn. Keep in mind that the messages you’re receiving might not be the real source of the problem. Ask different questions, dig deeper, and you’ll get closer to finding the answer
Scorpio Horoscope
(Oct 23 – Nov 21)
A strong connection with someone can make this a delightful day unless a disagreement gets out of hand. Savoring the simple sweetness of a loving partner or a good friend may be enough to smooth over the rough spots. Fortunately, you won’t have to resort to struggle or trickery to have a good time. All you need is the willingness to open your heart.
Sagittarius Horoscope
(Nov 22 – Dec 21)
Finding pleasure in work around the home makes sense for you today with the dependable Taurus Moon in your 6th House of Routine. But don’t worry about getting a specific task done, for the secret to your current success is to indulge your feelings rather than just doing the first thing that comes to mind. Experience the present moment in its entirety now, instead of trying to meet your goals. Beauty is the guiding force that can make this a very sweet day.
Capricorn Horoscope
(Dec 22 – Jan 19)
This can be one of those delightful days that remains in your memory for a long time. Still, it’s up to you to turn something mundane into a special event by sharing it with someone you love. If this option isn’t available, just be as playful as you can. Allowing yourself to express your inner child enables you to fully experience this opportunity for joy.
Aquarius Horoscope
(Jan 20 – Feb 18)
Spending quality time with those who are near and dear to you can make this a special day. In particular, tender moments with family members feel precious, especially if you still need to head out to work. You’re not necessarily the sentimental type, but today may be an exception. You don’t need to be overly ambitious now, for you are capable of finding great happiness close to home.
Pisces Horoscope
(Feb 19 – Mar 20)
You are in your comfort zone today, yet it’s important to make sure that your positive outlook is not based upon a faulty illusion. If a conversation doesn’t go according to your plan, quit attempting to control it. Go with the flow and don’t frustrate yourself by trying to get anywhere special. There will be plenty of time to follow your pursuits later on. In the meantime, keep gathering information to clarify your position
This calendar has been in existence since 1981 and as each Full Moon approaches a reminder is often given out to make preparations for this monthly crest in the solar-lunar wave. Therefore, since the next Full Moon — energizing Scorpio and Taurus will be happening on Monday October 29 — it is recommended to prepare for the enlightening vibrations during the next 48 hours. You can do this by being an ambassador of goodwill, especially since the Moon in Aries has just joined forces with exhilarating Uranus and moving into a trine in fire signs with the red planet Mars in Sagittarius (5:45PM PDT). Fun-filled activities, games and sports are in the hopper. Tune into an air of enthusiasm as the Moon forms a resourceful, 60-degree link with giant Jupiter (6:33PM PDT). This latter lunar aspect also begins a void lunar uncertainty zone that lasts until 11:16PM PDT tomorrow. Although this is a long stretch of time — when it is best to finish old business on a high note instead of launching new plans — healing forces are back on the march as the Sun trines Chiron (8:51PM PDT). Learn more about advances on the cutting edge of science and alternative medicine.

It’s time for radical change and new experiences as the Moon enters pioneering Aries on Friday afternoon. Sticking to familiar faces and places could be boring now, so spice up your personal life by exploring different scenes and experimenting with activities you’ve never tried before. Impatience and independence are kicked up to an even higher level that evening with an evocative lunar conjunction to rebellious Uranus. Late night surprises can suddenly alter moods and expose unexpected feelings.
Luckily, Saturday’s energy is mellower when the Moon aligns favorably with energetic Mars and enthusiastic Jupiter in the evening. Take risks and live life more adventurously now. Throwing yourself into physical activities is a fantastic way to tap into these positive planetary forces. Yet there is a chance that we could go too far or try too hard since Mars opposes Jupiter early on Sunday. Promising too much or pushing past the limits of reason can be exciting and fun, but may prove embarrassing when reality returns.
Romance gets a major boost on Sunday morning when amorous Venus enters her airy home sign Libra. A real sense of partnership emerges as desire for collaboration grows. Celebrate this beautiful transit by considering the needs of others and co-creating a peaceful world together. Compromise is not wimpy; it’s love.
