The major
astrological event of the week was the powerhouse New Moon in 19 degrees of
Scorpio on November 11, 2015. My tweets
on November 11th reflected on the energy of that new moon:
“Extremely
powerful #NewMoon in Scorpio today that conjuncts Mercury & trines Chiron
in Pisces. Time to transform & heal
old wounds.”
“#NewMoon in Scorpio
today sextiles Pluto in Capricorn. Let
go of stagnant patterns and make a fresh start.
Feel the #Phoenix energy!”
We all know that
new moons are about making fresh starts and implementing new plans, but when
that new moon is in the sign of Scorpio, the intensity and incentive are ramped
up a few more notches. Scorpio likes to
get to the bottom of things and doesn’t do anything half-heartedly. The themes of a Scorpio new moon involve deep
soul searching, reclaiming personal power by engaging in our passions, purging
toxins and surrendering to the darker shadow feelings of rage, jealousy and
obsession. It is truly a time of letting
go and transforming our inner stagnation and letting that inner phoenix rise
from the ashes.
There were a
lot of heavy hitting planets interacting with this new moon. For starters, Mercury in Scorpio conjuncted
it, affording us the opportunity to purge our old patterns of thinking and
communicating that were based on fear or the need to control. And Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio, sextiled
that new moon, which was like a double whammy and adrenaline shot of energy to
assist us in our path of transformation. Chiron in Pisces trined the new moon
and opened the floodgates to facing our inner wounding. This may have caused
many people to lash out in fear or anger.
This was an enlightening new moon, but it may have felt like a full moon
with its emotional intensity.
We are not
free of the effects of the Pluto Uranus squares of the past three years, and
Uranus managed to chime in on this new moon as well to make its presence
known. Uranus in 17 degree of Aries
formed a semi-sextile aspect to Chiron in 17 degrees of Pisces. Most people are not that aware of
semi-sextile aspects, considering them minor, but that is really not the
case. I was reminded this week of how a
semi-sextile aspect functions on a very similar vibration to that of an
inconjunct, which is 150 degrees. Uranus
in Aries is a very clear indicator that unexpected events are quickly becoming
the norm. I am extremely familiar with the inconjunct or quincunx aspect
because I have a natal moon in Gemini/Saturn in Scorpio inconjunct. While the main theme of the inconjunct is
adjustment, other themes of the inconjunct include the ideal vs. the real, the
balance between wish fulfillment and responsibility, trade-offs, compromise, review,
frustration, lack of moderation, an inability to say no and a compulsive need
to prove oneself. Uranus was a key
player in this new moon by forcing us to trust our intuition and bear witness
to our forms of reactive behaviors and transform them into more constructive
responses to situations that triggered our old wounds with its semi-sextile
aspect to Chiron in Pisces.
If you would
like to learn more about the inconjunct and semi-sextile aspects, I highly
recommend the book Understanding
Aspects The Inconjunct by Alan Epstein.
It will blow you away with its revelations of our inner strengths and
weaknesses.
The north
node of the moon is moving into Virgo on November 13th and this will
place more of an emphasis on providing service to others and releasing our
feelings of inadequacy and inclinations to withdraw or play the victim. We will also get one final blast from Mercury
in Scorpio conjunct the Scorpio Sun in 24 degrees on November 17th. This aspect is conjunct my Venus in the 2nd
house, so I am anticipating something big that day.
I am channeling that north node and Jupiter in Virgo energy
by offering my Reiki services. If you are in the Boston area, please consider
