STARDROPS November 12 2023
The power of Mars and Sun conjoined together in Scorpio has the ability to help us transform our situations.
It is the zodiac sign of transformational death and re-birth, and may very well be the antidote to a long drawn out Saturn in Pisces, where a kind of pause has been taking place in our lives at some level. Mars and Sun unite to rev up our motor and get us back on track again.
Even though Saturn is still at zero degrees Pisces through the rest of November, at least it has left retrograde and slowly moving forward. That means our business, tasks, goals, ideas and creative power is slowly thawing from the ice capsule we’ve partly been in so we can feel the light of our Higher Presence trickling back down into our world, a bit at a time. We should expect and demand cascading inspirations and empowerment to begin moving through us, not the trickle of an ice thaw.
Let’s journey through this week’s planetary positions, and make the most of what is in the heavens for us.
Nov 10 – 14 Mars and Sun at 21-22* Scorpio oppose Uranus at 21* Taurus
(This aspect is part of the New Moon in Scorpio theme)
An energizing force pushing us a bit further than we would normally go is just what we need now. Is it showing up in your work where you are being asked to bend, step up and give more of yourself? Is it personal and inside, where no one but yourself understands what you need to change?
This energy helps us work through hard personal identity or personality traits that are not necessarily working they way they used to. We’re probably going to have to let some old pattern go and embrace an internal transformation of some sort.
I want to spend just a bit more time on this energy because it is also part of the New Moon which represents a new start for all of us.
Scorpio is shamanic, mysterious, transforming. It reminds me of those moments in life when we need to do something we didn’t think we can do. We need to stretch our thinking, our belief in some way, or deeply process our reality we live in, in our own heads…. especially since it is opposing Jupiter in Taurus. That’s the stretching part. A rebirth of some sort could occur so that we feel new, can see with greater depth.this is not an intellectual process but an emotional one. In order for us to achieve some state which is meaningful to ourselves, we now need to tackle a mew way.
Scorpio can mean getting rid of something. Purging and cleansing in some form. What do we need to get rid of?
Scorpio also involves dark energies on the planet and all of us together, overriding these forces by taking the higher ground. Exercising our confidence in a beautiful future coming, and taking action in our own personal ways to make it happen where we have an ability to change things, will be the method.
It’s not easy and, requires the right kind of sacrifice. Financial insight can suddenly come to you as to what you need to do to take care of something. It should be positive and successful, eventually. Strategic layers of planning, taking one chunk of a problem at a time, that’s Scorpio and that is how we’ll succeed right now.
The New Moon in Scorpio November 13 2023
Moon, Mars and Sun stand together with creative power to transform situations in your life for the best. Expect discarding an old path, an old mindset. It’s time to rejuvenate your cells, body, mind an spirit as we also take this power and release waves of healing, waves of wisdom and integrity onto earth.
Expect Uranus’s opposition to these creative transformational planets to react. Many times you’ll get a surge of clarity yet someone might suddenly not like that you are different, taking action or so clear as to how you need to transform something.
This Uranus can be potentially explosive, disturbed by this new wave, you might feel coming through the world at this time. It could be seen as some form of oppositional stance, but there’s no way it can survive under the tenacious strength of that all seeing eye of Scorpio. You are seeing so much more now. Inspired to move towards a truth, and fitting your next steps to mirror what is inside of you, This cycle is healing, clear and brings you the stamina you need to get your life tasks handled.
Relationships can go deeper, more truthful and healing. Emerald green is the color of this Scorpio New Moon oppose Uranus and Jupiter in Taurus. This is the color of healing, truth, science and tech. It’s the color that penetrates all things hidden, done in secret which are the lower darker energies of Scorpio. During this New Moon, people will become more inspired to help humanity see so much more than they ever saw before. By seeing (third eye and pineal energies of Scorpio/Taurus) it heals, as truth always sets us free.
New Moons help us start fresh. Where do you have Scorpio in your birth chart? If you locate the Scorpio symbol on the outer rim of your wheel you can insert the New Moon in that area and then read up on what that particular house means. This will be where your fresh new start can be felt. To erect your chart for free and discover the houses’ meanings, you can find these links in the Mastery area of the site. MASTERY. These new beginnings of the new moon last for about two weeks up to the Full Moon. They help us to feel we can rise to the occasion, make new commitments, gather our energies and give ourselves or others, a good talking to, so we can see the way ahead, and regain the stamina and will to climb to the next level in our lives.
The New Moon in Scorpio will also activate change and unexpected reveals within the political power posturing activities. The New Moon in Libra, last October, when the confrontation began in the middle east, was in Israels’ / Palestine’s 12th house and Mars conjoining the 1st house. We’ve been touching upon this planetary aspect for a few weeks now but it simply shows us 12th house subterfuge and sabotage with hidden agreements transfpired behind the scenes. It was in Libra which emphasizes relationships, so these agendas done in secret must have been building and planning for a long while.
Now, with Scorpio, many layers of it are unfolding, since the New Moon is now in the 1st house out in the open. It doesn’t hold back and could release a more aggressive force of information and demands as certain people, leaders, agencies etc..are being exposed to the true motives and connections behind this conflict.
With Mars conjoin the Ascendant in October/s astrology, the push to fight, defend, pulling more countries and leaders to join would be intense.
Now, with the New Moon in Scorpio in the 1st house, oppose Uranus/Jupiter in the opposite house, pulls back the curtains on what’s really going on. There will be Uranus exposure of patterns as threats are given. Even though none of these planets deal with communications and information, I keep sensing the tension between these planets opposing each other, especially with Uranus involved, shocking not predictable threats and information on particular people and agencies are going to come to light which could suddenly force all involved to take a different path than aggression.
Uranus rules unexpected Uranian energy, technology used, nuclear, along with confronting and threatening with the transparency and exposure for the world to see everything that all parties and agencies have been part of. All the manipulating and compromising deals could suddenly come out. Exposure of those deep 12th house strategic entanglements and agendas which Uranus the transparency planet, and Jupiter in Taurus, financial and territorial, will unexpectedly expose. Jupiter can be judging and hypocritical and these planets are facing off into a nuclear exchange of uncovering alliances and contracts on all sides. Nuclear in a sense of political exposure. Now the new moon is in house #1, it’s brought out into the light.
This is not about the Palestinian or Israeli people, it’s about an ancient conflict now manifesting via politics and power positions.. The left/right axis you see with the planets on either side in the chart below, is representing an ancient polarizing between potentially two groups, two energies/forces that goes so far back in Earth’s history, their conflict might have not even originated here on this planet.
Some say the conflict originated on the exploded planet Maldek which is now the asteroid belt. Again not all people were ever part of this conflict.
Because Uranus is conjoined the Sun (on the right) and Jupiter is also conjoined the North Node (on the right) some form of dynamic confrontational message is sent terribly forceful to all involved, and could lead to a weakening or diminishing of the intensity of retaliation on all sides of the situation. Uranus conjoin Sun would be the beginning of a year and a half long wake up that this incident must forever be changed into something freer and more truthful, liberating for all.
The downside of all these planets’ positions could trigger just the most long drawn out intense operation on many sides, with other people in positions of power, taking advantage of the conflict. With Uranus, the types of weapons, tech, machinery and humans involved could escalate and be more unpredictably chaotic that we’ve seen anywhere.
I’m hoping for the Uranus/Sun waking up those in control on several sides to realize information and exposure at the root cause of the animosity, and a permanent solution not tried before takes place. Uranus could cause a never tried before action/solution behavior to occur, which could be shocking, but definitely solves the dangerous polarization.
The New Moon is in the U.S. Natal 9th house and the U.S. Conceptional 5th house. These houses are emphasizing more covert involvement and influence, revolving around philosophical and legal positioning, policies and human rights, possibly even religious undertones… initiating involvement without appearing to do so.
The rest of the week….
Nov 15 Mercury at 7* Sagittarius sexile Venus at 7* Libra
For the most part, a congenial moment for constructive visionary meetings, planning, social events, trips and just simply getting together with people you like.
Nov 15-16 Mercury and Venus in Sagittarius inconjunct Jupiter in Taurus at 8*
At the same time as above cycle, one slight mix up might occur. A tiny change of schedule, an issue one might bring up in conversation which introduces a new piece to a situation…whatever the hiccup is, some shifts and accommodating needs to take place..a change of direction or adjusting to the new information.
Nov 15-16 Sun and Mars at 24* Scorpio inconjunct North Node at 24* Aries
With the new empowerment and clear vision to see your future plans sharply, there are still steps, tasks which must be taken, which might not be fun. There doesn’t seem to be any way around it, might as well draw upon that Scorpio hardiness and get it over with. Let’s begin, and before you know it, it will be completed.
Nov 18 -20 Mars and Sun conjoined trine Neptune at 24* Pisces.
Ending once again on a positive cycle, the Sun/Mars energizing power aligns with Neptune in a favorable way. It brings harmony, inspiration, good fortune but mostly, I feel it has the capacity to download into our hearts and outer mind, a higher concept we’re intended to grasp onto, and bring into our everyday life. It is a creative, inspiring, spiritual, experience. You might feel it as a psychologically healing, musical and/or meditative healing energy.
The inspiring energy of this aspect can move you into your heart where all ideas and clear seeing merge with that love and expansion of transforming something which matters to you. Again, I am looking forward to a lighter feeling around us, and would love to hear from you if you do sense something has shifted.
Instead of the powers that be attempting to energetically reset us with that zero degree Saturn in Pisces, freezing our abilities in some way, we have re-set our own life path to one higher and more masterful.. Now we can utilize the powerful Scorpio to take action to transform our tasks at hand.
That’s all for this week. Hope you are rising to the challenges and bringing meaningful solutions into your life during these times. Stay true and know your inner resources are bright and many, you just need to see they are inside of you. You can do this! Scorpio is bringing to you the vision to see so much more than you ever could. There is an emotional knowing attached to this cycle. You could actually feel your abilities, your talents, your trust in your self and Higher Self now. Feeling it, validates it is true!
