Weekly Forecast: 10/23/15 through 10/29/15


Friday, October 23rd - A moon trine Sun aspect hits just after midnight and the moon moves void of course immediately at 12:22am EST. This is a very short void period and only lasts a little under an hour, so will likely not even be noticeable to most. The moon enters Pisces at 1:18am EST. We have two fairly big aspects this morning: Venus trine Pluto at 3:42am EST and Mars opposition Chiron at 4:47am EST. Both of these will last throughout the day and weekend, at least as far as the perceivable effects are concerned. The Venus/Pluto trine is ideal for creativity and completing or working on projects with a laser-like focus and intensity. Relationships could also take on an 'all or nothing' type of feeling. The trine softens the contact a bit, but jealousy could arise in some (particularly Libra and Aries). Mars opposition Chiron will alter the health of many this weekend, or at least the perception of their health and energy. Starts and stops will be likely, and physical activity may also fall into an 'all or nothing' situation. This is an ideal weekend for taking time to relax and listen to what your body is telling you. Don't push yourself too hard, unless you feel particularly inspired to take action. The moon squares Saturn and conjuncts Neptune this afternoon, which will give the day a dreamy quality and help with any problems understanding others. Empathy is heightened. The Sun enters Scorpio this afternoon at 1:46pm EST. Now that we are in the Scorpion's domain, we are awarded the gifts of focus and the ability to see deeper into what is hidden or obscured. Tonight the moon opposes Venus, making waves of emotions that could be shaky or uncertain, but can be used as motivation for particular creative projects.

Saturday, October 24th - All of the day's aspects occur before 7:30am, giving the morning a rather hectic and chaotic feeling that gradually mellows as the hours pass by. We begin with a Mars/Uranus inconjunction, which has been building over the past few days. This aspect brings feelings of anger to the surface but offers no obvious outlet for release. This results in much impatience and frustration on the parts of many, especially those whose own natal Mars or Uranus are impacted right now. The moon opposes Jupiter, conjuncts Chiron and opposes Mars this morning, which all have a 'caged animal' effect when combined with other current transits. This is all meant to be cathartic, and to allow us to access repressed emotions that have been bottled up for some time. You may have to try different techniques for working through your own version of feeling. The moon is void of course from 7:19am EST throughout the rest of the day, which allows for the momentum to slow and for some semblance of peace to be reached by nightfall.

Sunday, October 25th - The moon comes out of its void at 2:22am EST and enters Aries, which assists with direct expression of anger, annoyance or any variation thereof. The moon opposes the North Node this morning, which will bring up diversions that may seem pleasant but are tools of procrastination. A moon/Saturn trine at eight this morning will allow a bit more focus on tasks at hand. Teamwork is not encouraged today. Mercury/Chiron inconjunct at 11:29am leaves a disconnect between some individuals that no words can seem to breach. If you are hitting walls with others, consider waiting a couple days to revisit the subject. Venus and Jupiter meet in conjunction at 4:02pm EST, a pleasant aspect which encourages romantic encounters, financial endeavors (as long as they are conducted with joy) and creative works. This is an ideal day to alter your physical appearance in some way or to spend some time focusing on such things. Tonight Mercury and Uranus are in opposition, which again ends up destroying the ability to see eye to eye with some people. Tempers flare up and fights break out if the issue is pushed. If your own natal Mars or Uranus are being negatively aspected by any transiting planet you may find your fuse is rather short. Don't engage with others and wait to have heavy discussions until these influences pass.

Monday, October 26th - The moon squares Pluto just after midnight. Independence is asserted at any cost. There is a need to carve out one's own identity today, and those with Sun, Moon or Rising in Aries or Capricorn will particularly be hit by this need. The moon shifts into conjunction with Uranus and opposes Mercury this morning, which brings all of the week's intensity and communication failures to a head. If anything has been held back, it will be released today. Process your feelings, be honest with yourself and move ahead accordingly. The moon is void from 8:26am EST onward, which will allow a bit of time to rest up and deal with anything that's occurred recently that you have yet to examine. As we gear up for the Full Moon tomorrow, we are in the process of pulling in new experiences, people and feelings to us that are reflecting our current frame of mind. Put the finishing touches on your goals and plans tonight.

Tuesday, October 27th - The void ends at 2:08am EST and the moon enters Taurus. The Full Moon hits at 8:05am EST. A Scorpio/Taurus pole full moon focuses on attracting in money, finances and material world shifts. The Sun in Scorpio encourages us to remember the more etheric, spiritual and emotional realms and to not act out of fear that we will not be secure. Themes of money or finances could come up in a large way today. Venus opposes Chiron at 10:06 this morning, an aspect that may find some revisiting past relationships, or remembering fears or insecurities that stemmed from them. Stay grounded today and be sure to focus your energy on the present moment, rather than spiraling out with possibilities or potential outcomes. The moon sextiles Neptune at 2pm, which makes it easier to get swept up in illusions or fantasies. Venus and Uranus are inconjunct at 9:22pm EST. Many will move into denial. If you are able to pull yourself out of this sensation, be honest and clear with others. Pull on the Neptunian sense of empathy and shift others back to a more true picture of reality. The moon trines Pluto tonight, which will make some take a leading role in the form of being a guide or boss to others. It is possible (and likely) that even those who act as leaders will have someone else to lead them, as well. In this way everyone is both a teacher and a student tonight.

Wednesday, October 28th - The moon trines Jupiter, sextiles Chiron and trines both Venus and Mars this morning. Feelings of good-natured humor, lightness and excitement fill the air. There is a lot of outward activity today and others are drawn to be more vocal and extroverted today. Energy picks up speed, and unless your own natal Mars is poorly aspected right now, there is a lot of physical inertia to get many things done on this day. The moon is void from 11:21am EST on, but the other aspects carry us forward to break through any lulls we may experience. It is a good day for social calls or other fun and spontaneous situations.

Thursday, October 29th - The moon exits its void at 2:25am EST and enters Gemini. The moon trines the North Node at 3am this morning, and this brings in an energy that connects us to those who we share some sort of karmic pattern with. Channels of communication open up and we are able to learn tremendously from others. The moon/Saturn opposition may keep you embroiled in interpersonal relations, and so it could be a challenge to focus too much on work or responsibilities of any kind. There is a moon/Neptune square a bit later which moves things to more of a logical, theoretical level for the night. Emotions are not as involved for most and instead we may socialize in a way that keeps things from getting too personal. Either way, we are driven to connect with others today, even if it is only on a mental plane.
