November Astrology - Head and Heart; Choices and More Choices



Each day we make choices. Some seem insignificant, others major. We are faced with crossroads and either-or scenarios every waking hour and sometimes even in our dreams. But November's decisions, while not necessarily more important than usual, MAY be more noticeable.



Do we follow our longings or be steadfast and practical? There is no wrong or right method in our actions, but making decisions purposefully will at least impart a feeling of expended efforts and thoughtful resolutions.

Mercury ends its seemingly backward dance on November 4th* making uncomfortable aspects to Saturn as it completes a slow pirouette and heads onward once more. We could be feeling a need to break out of some constraints. And as I type the astrology I can't help but think, "well yep". Many of us are already in that head shaking, hair pulling arena, but the first two weeks of November could have those feelings escalating even further. I suggest trying to temper your thoughts and actions with empathy. It will be easy to over-react.

Lessons, choices; lessons, choices. The merry-go-round keeps spinning. Jupiter meets up with Pluto on its way to that December appointment with Saturn; Venus is getting battered from many directions. This is not a sunshine and roses month. With so much trying to push us this way and that it could be easy to fall into overwhelmed mode. Try to find some time for yourself, a time to feed your appreciation for what and who you love. We need to balance this less than fun month with a sprinkling of good times -- simply to keep our sanity. 

 Mars gives up its  "back-stepping" mid month  to move forward. This sounds like good news and it certainly could be. Those who have been fighting the quicksand and making themselves do things that they know they "should" even though enthusiasm has left the building may feel a burst of renewed vigor and creativity.  But with the surrounding energies afoot that newly discovered passion could present itself as volatility.  Be aware; tread carefully. 

The for sure "good" news in times like these is that the planets DO MOVE (thank you Universe!). The energies soften somewhat as we move into December.

Consider your moves wisely and with care for those around you. Hang tight and take plenty of quiet moments. We will get through this.
