Determination with our Transformation

Stardrops – October 31 – November 6, 2021

PDF

Our theme is about one-pointedness, and how it is so worth it to pour our precious time into something day after day, layering our love onto life.

Determination is invoked now, as this time requires thoroughness, keeping our vision as to what we’re working on and remembering the end goal. The effort invested pays off tremendously and definitely worth all the sacrifices we make.

October 31 Mercury 22* Libra trine Jupiter at 22* Aquarius

Your mind is strong, logical and making an optimistic decision which aligns with your higher guidance and intuition now. Beautiful conversations and time spent with enlightened people who bring unusually stimulating information and good times.

Nov 2 Mercury at 24* Libra square Pluto at 24* Libra

This is about 2 months of facing facts in the world, and making hard life decisions. “In lieu of the reality of what is happening, what am I going to do with myself?”

This Mercury square Pluto, is a continuation of a theme we’ve been experiencing since the 1st 1/2 of September. It’s been repeating, and this particular day could bring some hard conversations that must be had. If not with another, at least ourselves. This is the very last time in this past month and a half period of the past Mercury retro, hard truth is being downloaded into our minds in order to re-arrange our priorities, as it kept going back and forth in a square to Pluto.

During these three square cycles,important financial considerations are on the table. For some, sudden health problems might arise, or employment decisions seem unbelievably drastic; Blocks appear interfering with your plans, issues related to data, letters, meetings or the ease of working on a plan for the future, now lends to some possible hardships with getting just about anything done r even caring about anything anymore.

Remember, this Mercury/Pluto square is about learning deep things that we need to face. When it’s over, it will feel as if we’ve always known this. Here are the three periods which have been frustrating to some:

These are: #1 Mercury direct at 24* Libra square Pluto, September 15 – 30; #2 Mercury retro at 24* Libra square Pluto, September 26 –October 4; and the last one, #3 Mercury direct square Pluto, October 24 – November 4, 2021.

These three phases cause us to make a string of decisions which re-arrange our lives in some way.

Severe posturing on every side comes with this square. We could feel like we’re caught in an inevitable decision that isn’t always the preferred one, but it’s as if we have no choice. Otherwise, we will be set back in some way. Expect delays along with some strong pressure to receive or provide information which has normally been hidden or not disclosed.

Globally, it brings exposure, transparency and a vetting of people, circumstances, conversations and other forms of media which are normally hidden. Pluto squares and oppositions to Mercury tend to create much tension in the areas of difficult decisions based upon new information that is challenging to handle.

It demands a hard call – a calling out and confrontational finality, ending, fed up and an intense challenging posture to situations which have gone on far too long.

We tend to be more intolerant as suddenly a reality of our situation hits us (or the people in the world) and can we can not ever go back to the old way we saw certain issues anymore. Many are experiencing this realization which then leads to changing our lives in some fashion, since mid September. November 2, is its last final moment of this revelation.

Nov 3 Mars at 2* Scorpio inconjunct North Node at 2* Gemini

Mars can influence people to become impatient then leading to confrontations with others. This date is hard in a way, as we can feel torn between just handling our situation that has worn us down, or separating and dealing with it in another way, usually through private processing.

One part of us desires to move forward with an experience, and another part of us realizes it might not be worth the effort, so why are we doing it? That’s a good question!

Nov 4 Sun at 12* Scorpio oppose Uranus at 12* Taurus

This position of the Sun and Moon, both opposing Uranus, creates a concern about being alienated,rejected by someone, or somehow, and realizing what state we are in right now, isn’t cutting it.

For where we want to be, and how we want to live might not be shared with someone else’s expectations. Look at your personal true self and embrace making changes for yourself, not for someone else. That’s the guarantee for the right people to embrace us. This opposition can bring some anxiety and stress, as we finally see what has to change in order to get where we want to be. This aspect is found below in the more detailed explanation of the next two week’s New Moon influence in our lives. This cycle began October 28 up to November 19, 2021 but truly peaking on November 4.

Nov 5 Venus at 0* Capricorn Begins

Venus not only moves into Capricorn, it stays there for up to 2 1/2 months, as it will turn retrograde in December in Capricorn. (More about this later)

Our most important values are magnified through a Venus retrograde cycle and when in Capricorn, issues related to status, ambition, business and our reputation. It can enhance wonderful opportunities aligned with professional credibility, taking charge. There can be an increased atmosphere of responsibility, of affluence, upgrading, prestige, being taken seriously, increasing our desires to put more order and work into a higher quality status and appearance. If it isn’t for yourself, maybe your surroundings? Your business? Your children’s education or with their instructors? Your public presence such as branding or walking into a more powerful and distinct role you must take on in order to create more efficiency and success.

This cycle will be emphasizing the magnetic influence of increasing our worth, value, inner quality of personal meaning and self respect. It increases ambition naturally, desiring to be better, do better. We believe in ourselves more, and love comes more easily into our lives.

It is a softening beautiful essence which increases a feeling of being insulated in love, padded in self esteem everywhere we go. This cycle is happening like this, only because Venus is going to turn retrograde.

Nov 5 Mercury at 0* Scorpio enters and continues in Scorpio up to November 23.

Until November 23^rd, the planet of communication and information digs deep to uncover facts which must emerge. There is a strong pull to go deeper, commit more, align ourselves with another and collaborate, share and plan with others rather than go it alone.

Concentration upon discarding old papers, files and belongings during this Mercury in Scorpio. It provides themes targeting our health rejuvenation, methods for increasing stamina, immune system, fasting and purging, and actions taken to truly let go of really worn out old systems, lifestyles and situations which must be released.

Look at this time as a need for more patience and being extremely thoughtful and thorough in all we engages in. Artistic dramatic creations, color, moving music and dynamic creativity expressed, provides contrast and evokes deep emotions. Healing ideas come with this cycle, along with constructive financial decision.

THE NEW MOON IN SCORPIO

November 4, 2021 New Moon at 12* Scorpio

Nov 4 The New Moon in Scorpio – Sun, Moon, Mars conjoined in Scorpio then on November 5, Mercury joins, all oppose Uranus at 12* Taurus square Jupiter at 22* Aquarius, square Saturn at 7* Aquarius.

This process has already begun for some, increasing a message to invest ourselves lovingly in each other. It’s time to connect, share information and extend our hearts out to one another.

With this New Moon energy, tread very lightly with regards to challenging relationships. as there are some squares which create some tension, and an opposition to Uranus, which typically leads to some anxiety over being kept out of the loop. Normally, this Moon denotes a new cycle for all of us. It inspires us to make commitments to ourselves mostly, to make the effort to achieve, grow, change. It will be in areas which involve trust and investing ourselves in people, actions and goals which pay off. Including financially.

Globally, this New Moon configuration with all other planets listed, is volatile. It’s an astrologers job to warn against catastrophes, including sudden trigger events, and this would be one of them. Economically might be the best guess, or any unusual event which then could trigger a manipulation throwing us off guard.

We now look at what we don’t want to live like, or what we don’t want to be, do or become, what we don’t want to go through and make plans to value ourselves and our loved ones so much, we re-arrange our priorities now. Sacrifice is always required with Scorpio issues. Look at what your options are and do the math. “If I continue to do nothing,,, maintaining my normal everyday ways, change nothing, then surely nothing will change, and this is how I will be 10, 20 years from now.”

But it’s not only that, the situation in the world, is requiring us to think differently and make smart choices as to what we want to be, where we want to be and how do we truly desire to live. Everything matters with a New Moon in Scorpio now.

With this New Moon, Scorpio compels us to sacrifice some old state of being, in order to achieve something better.

The power of this New Moon is also our Vision turned inwards (Mars rules the sign Scorpio and Aries, which in addition to clearer self reflection, vision and strategy increases. Deep emotions might emerge. Also, working with financial matters would typically be about streamlining, cutting off or changing old investments or obligations, letting go of things which are no longer serving a purpose during this time and transforming portions of your life.

A few clues about yourself will surface with the intent to assist us in our growth.

From now up through November 19, 2021, push yourself to overcome habits that have settled into your life for too long. Think of the transformed state you will reach, or the upgraded situation waiting for you to enjoy and claim. This New Moon in opposition to Uranus, is telling us its time to separate and detach from some outworn situation, and make the Scorpio sacrifice to move up your golden ladder of light.
