NOVEMBER
2006 by Bob Mulligan
Fire,
Air, Earth, and Water are the four hermetic elements
which represent four different approaches to life.
Each sign of the Zodiac belongs to one of these elements.
Earth is the element of manifestation. From the 30th
of September 2006 until the 11th of December 2006,
there are no planets in earth signs. This does not,
of course, mean that nothing will manifest on the
earth plane. However, it does mean that the real activity
will be in the mental and emotional arena. This is
a planning time. November is a very important month;
bringing all our fixed, frozen emotional energy to
a place of forced movement. We are all placed, by
the logic of our own actions, in circumstances where
we must shift or get off the planet. Much is happening
for the whole evolving universe on the inner planes
of consciousness right now; it is not possible to
solve our own personal problems in complete isolation
from the collective. We are involved with each other;
period.
There
are several important happenings during the month
of November this year: Mercury, Retrograde at the
beginning of the month, goes direct on the 17th; Uranus
turns direct on the 19th; Venus and Jupiter (the two
benefics) leave Scorpio and enter Sagittarius. This
is a mentally charged month; with tremendous effort
and smoldering intensity a diamond is created out
of a lump of coal.
The
big event of the month happens on November 8th with
the interior conjunction of Mercury to the Sun. This
happens three times a year but this conjunction is
special because Mercury is Parallel the Sun at the
time. This is like an Eclipse, as Mercury is passing
across the face of the Sun. Mercury (Planet of the
mind, communication, and transportation) is diving
into the Sun and getting recharged. This starts and
ends a mental cycle of cycles. Your thoughts are quite
potent; keep aware of this fact as you frame your
ideas and communications. This will not occur again
until 2039.
The
Full Moon is on Sunday the 5th at 7:59AM EST. Eight
of the ten planets are in fixed signs; these are the
signs that collect and maintain energy. As a consequence
of many outer planets being in fixed signs for a year,
we have much stagnant energy gathering; right now,
things are coming to a head. Spiritual breakthroughs
are possible by giving one self over to something
larger, something greater than our personal lives;
but this requires genuine commitment to higher more
permanent values.
The
New Moon on the 20th at 5:19 PM EST brings us to a
real new beginning, as both Sun and Moon are Conjunct
Jupiter which is on the last degree of Scorpio. The
message is renounce and enjoy. Letting go of the past
and embracing the spirit of love and forgiveness is
the ticket to getting your life to move forward now.
From
the 1st to the 5th secrets and behind the scene deals
can leave us with scattered energy and somewhat confused.
This is a time of release; do yourself a favor by
putting your needs in context and letting go of the
past. Fear can stop you from acting out of your highest
intentions. Out of the plethora of immediate tasks,
choose just a few priorities and work diligently on
them this week and these things will bear abundant
fruit.
The
6th to the 12th is a great time for introspection;
if pride does not get in the way, your mind will cut
to the core of your difficulties like a laser beam.
Much needs to be done around you but leave time for
planning.
From
the 13th to the 19th we shift our thinking and a more
fun- loving spirit emerges as we move into a time
of hope and promise. With correct emotional balance
we are able to put many pieces of our thinking together
quickly. Insight after insight can alter our life
situation as doors open and new opportunity emerges.
From
20th to the 26th we have a profound experience of
people coming forward as hidden mysteries and secrets
reveal themselves. Self disclosure is liberating,
but telling on others is tacky, rude, and trouble
provoking. Stay light hearted but not light headed
and avoid judgment.
From
the 27th to the 30th two powerful forces exert pressure
on us for our time; the ordinary obligations of our
everyday lives, which seem more pressing, and the
extraordinary and unique events presenting us with
once in a lifetime opportunities. Unexpected luck
may seem like a problem rather than an opportunity
if our schedule is too tightly packed. Allow time
to explore new people and unusual happenings. Still,
there are things that must be planned and great results
are still the byproduct of careful attention to detail.
1st,
Wednesday, Venus Semi-square Pluto, Sun Contra-parallel
Saturn, Mercury Square Saturn, Venus Trines Uranus.
We begin emotional projects and end mental projects.
The heart leads us in a new direction. Inspiration
is everywhere; give wings to your feelings.
2nd,
Thursday, Venus Contra-parallel Saturn, Sun Semi-square
Pluto. We have so much energy; it is best used for
self correction. Take care of obligations first, then
be gentle with yourself.
3rd,
Friday, Sun Trine Uranus. Rapid progress emerges through
following our best intuitions. Freedom is a state
of mind and an attitude toward life; do not be fooled
by circumstances. You are bigger than the spot you
are in at the moment and today can remind you of this
simple fact.
4th,
Saturday. Relax, it is a lazy day. Spend your time
in quiet pursuits. Meditation is clarification and
recreation on a higher plane of consciousness.
5th,
Sunday, Sun Parallel Venus, the Full Moon, Venus Parallel
Neptune. Stubborn circumstances bring us a chance
to reevaluate and alter our fundamental approach to
life. This is a day of accommodating our basic needs.
Love is the answer to all questions. Explore creative
outlets and you will find parts of yourself that you
have been disconnected from.
6th,
Monday, Sun Parallel Neptune, Mercury Parallel Jupiter,
Mars Contra-parallel Saturn, Venus Square Neptune,
Venus Parallel Pluto. Emotional confusion and intensity
of purpose colors this day. Focus on positive values;
you will find your highest ideals manifesting in everyday
occurrences.
7th,
Tuesday, Mars Semi-square Pluto, Sun Parallel Pluto,
Mercury Conjunct Venus. Contain negative feelings
and you will find just the appropriate words to transform
primary circumstances in your life. Diplomacy is necessary
but so is action.
8th,
Wednesday, Mercury Parallel Venus, Sun Conjunct then
Parallel Mercury. Reorient your thoughts toward something
higher and your efforts will be rewarded. Even when
others are difficult, you can find common ground if
you honestly look for it.
9th,
Thursday, Mercury Parallel Pluto, Sun Square Neptune,
Mercury Parallel Neptune. A quivering intensity can
keep everyone on edge; but, be cautious; getting to
the bottom of things changes our attitude toward important
people in our lives.
10th,
Friday, Mercury Parallel Mars. Be sure that something
worthwhile has your attention. Raw assertion is a
good thing at times but make sure that you have your
feelings correctly channeled.
11th,
Saturday, Mercury Conjunct Mars. Our powerful feelings
are the result of real commitment to some captivating
aspect of our inner nature; the way to success is
to be conscious of what drives our nature.
12th,
Sunday, Mercury Contra-parallel Saturn, Venus Square
Saturn. Fear limits joy. Loss occurs because we act
when sitting still should be our natural response
to circumstances. Be patient.
13th,
Monday, Mars Parallel Neptune, Venus Semi-sextile
Pluto, Mercury Trine Uranus. Events bring us to change
quickly. Everyone seems to be inspired by some ideal;
put the best intuitions of your heart into action.
14th,
Tuesday, Venus Parallel Jupiter, Mercury Semi-square
Pluto. Feeling good we take chances and enjoy pleasures
of life. Eliminate the things you have outgrown and
you will enjoy the things that remain all the more.
15th,
Wednesday, Mars Parallel Pluto, Venus Conjunct Jupiter.
The urge to bring things to a conclusion is very powerful.
Our appetite can be insatiable. We do ourselves a
big favor by carefully selecting our object of desire.
16th,
Thursday. We are pensive as we are aiming toward clarification.
Balance comes with determination and commitment to
honesty.
17th,
Friday, Sun Square Saturn, Venus enters Sagittarius,
Mars Square Neptune, Sun Semi-sextile Pluto, Mercury
turns Direct, Sun Parallel Jupiter. Our inner conflicts
can be resolved as we become determined to live more
from our true values so as to honor our higher perspective
on life. We are called upon to relinquish our baser
desires and to release our lower selves.
18th,
Saturday, Learning to give more and ask less frees
us from having unrealistic expectations of others.
We progress by helping anyone that we can.
19th,
Sunday, Uranus turns Direct. Inspiration dawns in
our very fertile imaginations when we make time to
just dream. There is an air of expectance behind a
rather low key surface appearance in life.
20th,
Monday, New Moon at 5:19PM EST. You will have a lot
of whatever you are concentrating on. Give time and
attention to the things that matter most and be aware
that things transitory will not supply satisfaction.
What you contribute to the world and to the world
of others bring lasting enjoyment.
21st,
Tuesday, Sun Conjunct Jupiter. Luck and lasting satisfaction
can be yours if you know how to spend your time. What
you breathe life into now will come to fruition very
soon.
22nd,
Wednesday, Mercury Semi-square Pluto, Sun enters Sagittarius,
Mercury Trine Uranus. Focus your mind on your most
long range goals now; you will create your own inspiration.
Take time to write down your current thoughts and
you will see an evolution of your ideas.
23rd,
Thursday, Jupiter enters Sagittarius. Our energy lights
us and things that we have been worrying about evaporate.
A sense of humor gives our lives a lift.
24th,
Friday. We all want to see results for our efforts
today. Some things manifest quickly but we have obligations
that can require repetitive actions that seem to bear
little fruit; we are making progress despite the absence
of objective verification.
25th,
Saturday, Venus Square Uranus. A much bigger picture
of life can cause us to take flights of fancy. The
desire to be free moves us into new behaviors.
26th,
Sunday. Have fun; we easily soar into new arenas.
A little escape from it all can be a good use of the
current energies.
27th,
Monday, Mercury Contra-parallel Saturn. Lots of effort
seems to be necessary to get anything to happen now.
Stay focused but do not be in a hurry. Help can emerge
from the most unlikely sources.
28th,
Tuesday, Mercury Square Neptune, Mars Square Saturn.
Great insight can emerge but be careful; slow, careful,
deliberate action helps you understand current circumstances.
29th,
Wednesday. Be careful; avoid overreacting in haste
or anger; be willing to wait until the feeling of
joy strikes you, this will be the time to act.
30th,
Thursday, Mars Semi-sextile Pluto, Mercury Parallel
Neptune, Venus Sextile Neptune. Our struggle is to
have our prodigious enthusiasm pour into something
worthwhile. Avoid trying to correct other people's
behavior and you will be happier.
