TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Here's what's hard: Continuing to put in the same consistent day-in-day-out efforts on the now-so-very-familiar routine of tasks, all while you have a sneaking suspicion that your underlying impetus to keep on fightin' this fight is embroiled in a gradual, but profound, reorientation. Your philosophic core is indeed deeply transmuting, Taurus. Yet, like most important evolutionary processes, this one will take a long time… and you're currently closer to the beginning of it than any reassuring conclusion. At the same time, since the basic premises behind how you've organized your daily rituals haven't yet conclusively changed (i.e., you're not at a place to confidently define what exactly is different), you've got to maintain the existing momentum as it's been. Though you may rightfully foresee a time somewhere ahead in the future (whether nearer or farther) when what you're doing now will seem quaint, outdated or pointless—a moment which will make itself abundantly clear once it arrives—you don't yet know what it will be replaced with. Until then, you've got to honor the previous developments that got you this far in the first place… and hold it together, despite the unresolved questions.
SCORPIO (October 23-November 21): While it may seem more desirable (to a certain Greta-Garbo-ish part of your psyche at least) to sequester thyself indoors and spare your tender innards the indignity of putting on a personality suitable for public view, let me suggest such a hiding-out would be a waste of your temporarily heightened power to influence. Fight off the inner voice of least resistance, Scorpio, who might argue that, to truly suit your personal cravings of the moments, you should fasten the shutters tight and cocoon into the protective casing of home. Isn't that a little short-sighted, especially once your astrologer points out you've still got the Sun, Mercury and Venus on your side? With your planetarily-glorified mix of startlingly crisp communications and almost uncanny allure, you presently possess the chops to convince nearly anyone of anything—that is, if you sincerely buy into it. (Disclaimer: Beware of manipulating.) Knowing that, use what you've momentarily got to think a few steps ahead… rather than, say, merely excusing yourself from all such forethought so you can take it easy another few days. 'Easy' may indeed be easy, but also somewhat wasteful of opportunity.
Some weeks it's just scary true.
Scorpio (Oct. 23- Nov. 22)
Saturn entering Libra represents an enormous sea change for you. Certain elements of your nature make you one of the most inherently introspective signs of the 12. Yet Saturn, now in your 12th solar house, is drawing you toward a dimension of inner seclusion that is different than anything you've experienced lately. And that is putting pressure on you to change your mind about certain long-held beliefs; to alter your environment; and to come to terms with everything about you that nobody else knows. However, you may recognize that your inner secret world cannot stay that way for long. The overriding theme of your current transits is that in order to regain your sanity, you need to be more transparent. In the end, you will discover that it was not what you were concealing that was causing your struggle, but the mere fact that you concealed it.
The inner secret world thing coming out is scary true lately. I am surprised at what comes out of me this week!
Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
Your ruler Pluto, planet of trusting the unknown, is linking to Saturn, planet of future expectations, all month. It’s an interesting mix of energies, especially as Saturn has just entered the ‘go with the flow’ angle of your chart, where surrender takes you where you want to go faster than fighting against the current. There’s a fabulous new moon (new phase) in your sign on the 16th and events around this time somehow show you how well things can go when you trust the process. As this is a long-term influence, things unfold gradually, but this is part of it too; trusting the timing.
-Achieving your goals, particularly if you are an artist or other creator, is never easy.-Making money being a creator is often difficult.-Maintaining a partnership with someone you love is often made difficult by practical considerations.-Often... it would be easier to just give up and let "common sense" dictate your behavior.
If you are a person who believes that carving your own destiny is possible, then yeah, sure there's free will.
And if you're not, if you think every single thing is all there in the horoscope,
then it's another story.
No matter how you look at astrology,
this shit works.
Go forth and fill your libraries with media.
Seriously, thanks to everyone for being so amazing and patient. You are the reason I love Vox.
Theoretically, in a synastry, two people coming together with this aspect should facilitate one another in this way. There is an understanding between them. They feel comfortable together, complimented. They like one another. This works even in compatible elements (fire/air, earth/water) without an exact aspect, although the more exact the aspect, the greater the integration. In theory, at least.
Ever had a non-sexual relationship with someone whose Sun was conjunct your Moon, or vice versa? A friendship perhaps? Work colleague? Ever notice what happens? Usually, you get along okay, sometimes fabulously. You like the same things, you have the same attitudes, you feel comfortable with one another. You have fun together. But then, what happens? All that same-y stuff runs down an unconscious river between you. Pretty soon, you don’t notice it anymore, and then that’s when the conflicts of other planets kick in. And that wave of unconscious nicey-nice-ness that you were relying on suddenly turns on you a bit, because you find that the same qualities you really don’t like in yourself are reflected in the other person, like a bad mirror staring back at you all the time. Moon in Leo starts resenting Sun in Leo’s need for attention. Moon in Pisces starts steaming because Sun in Pisces is never home for dinner on time.
I'm sort of amused at this since my double Sadge friend is coming to visit...we're not conjunct, though.
"And because Libra is all about relating, the emphasis will be on relationships of every denomination, which means it would be wise to anticipate meetings with current, recent, or long-gone lovers, friends, and other intimate partners. Just be aware those meetings can occur in a variety of dimensions — dreams, meditation, memories therapy, or at the grocery store, gas station, or swap meet. No matter where this potential for close encounters unfolds, keep in mind, your primary relationship is with yourself, and then do your best to treat yourself with as much loving kindness as possible."
I was just told that the Amazon Conduit will be fixed by tomorrow. I will post here as soon as I get word that it's back up and running.
I know this has been frustrating and I am sorry there wasn't more I could do to make it less so. I really appreciate your patience though.
Cheers,
Planet Waves: Scorpio (Oct. 23- Nov. 22)
You have the personal moxie, the charm, the style, energy and most of all, the personal required to succeed in the way that you want to. In fact, you can forget about everything on that list except for the last item. Success does not usually happen fast, and we have good reason to question the kind that does. What I am telling you is that you have solid reasons to have faith in yourself. So what if various elements of your romantic life make about as much sense as two jigsaw puzzles mixed together. Who cares if there are those nights you feel like you're holed up in a raft floating on the ocean of your own existence. You actually know who you are. You actually believe in yourself.Free Will Astrology (these two made my friends about FAINT this week with the accuracy):
My friend Alcea, the pagan priestess who leads group rituals, is a responsible sort who has humble respect for the power of the spirit realms. She thinks there can be value in seeking help from the beings who dwell on the other side of the veil, but you've got to be careful. They can be as clueless and misguided as the less evolved characters who live on the material plane. That's why Alcea is especially impeccable around this time of year, when the veil between the worlds is thinner and our dimension is more accessible to the spirits. Having said all that as a caveat, Taurus, I want to let you know that this would be an excellent time for you to call on the help of your most intelligent, interesting, and loving ancestors.
The astrological vibes suggest that you open yourself wide, try everything, and give freely. I urge you to adapt as your motto an exhortation that once came out of the mouth of the seven-year-old cartoon character Dennis the Menace: "Hey! Wake up! Let's go everywhere and do everything!" More than any other phase in many moons, Scorpio, this is your moment to make YES your battle cry. The world is asking you to be bigger than the old you, wilder than five blood oaths put together, and as strong as the full moon rising over a mountain.
