Theme: Emotional clarity

With the Moon conjunct Pluto today you can experience deep insights, often through catharsis. Uncomfortable truths surface offering an opportunity to self-examine, let go and move forward. It’s important to let pent-up energy release in a safe way for all concerned. In addition the Moon is trine Uranus, asking you to be more flexible than usual, while also providing room for spontaneity and taking a welcome break.

Theme: Finding generosity

The Moon conjunct Ceres today reminds us of the importance of engaging generosity in our lives, and offers a reminder of the importance of the bounty of the earth in supporting and nourishing us. The Sun in Scorpio is still plumbing the psychological depths – bringing hidden truths to the surface. Self-discipline continues to be important at this time. The Moon in Capricorn creates yearning for stability, and seeks practical outcomes in facing daily challenges.

When you find yourself in a troublesome situation, when you are in great pain, when an intense emotion arises, only then will you know where you are at with practice.~Garchen Rinpoche

Theme: Action stations

The Moon moves into Capricorn, an action-oriented sign, that bestows a serious yet practical focus on matters. This placement compliments the trine between Sun and Saturn adding to one’s capacity for self-discipline. Mars has moved into the sign of Leo which is an assertive, courageous, yet stubborn, place for Mars to be, and although Mars is pulling away from its opposition to Pluto there is still the potential for power struggles internally and externally. Mercury trine Mars enables communications to play a critical role in adjudicating challenges at this time. Jupiter and Venus are still creating a buffer against negative actors, in one’s own mind, and outside oneself. It is important to keep good company at this time.

If you want to get rid of the your enemy, the true way is to realize that your enemy is delusion.~The Buddha

The Moon is Void of Course today between EST USA 5.23am until 10:17am. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Buffer

With the Moon conjunct Pallas Athena and Venus today the voice and wisdom of women is in ascendancy. The Sun trine Saturn encourages us to focus on self-discipline at this time and have fortitude. In other words, persistence pays off and we can learn from our experience. Jupiter continues to be conjunct the beneficial White Moon providing, like Venus conjunct the Moon, a buffer against negative forces.

Those who, with body, speech, and mind, Are resolved in thought and deed to heal the world, Who always strive to heal sentient beings, Are like an uḍumbara flower.~ Mahayana Sutra, Asokadattas’s Prophecy.

Theme: Upbeat, Frank, and Feisty

Especially in the morning we are Sagittarius oriented. Focused on religion, philosophy and law we are optimistic. The Moon is conjunct Mercury, so our head and heart are aligned. We speak our mind but should be mindful of the pent up energy expressed by Mars opposed to Pluto for one more week. We should all pray for peace and nonviolence.

It is precisely when things become really difficult, urgent and critical that we should think and act nonviolently. ~H H the Dalai Lama

The Moon is void of course today until 1:21 am EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: The dark moon

In this dark balsamic moon phase where the Moon nestles behind the Sun it’s a time for going within, reflection, resting and review. The Moon is shedding its light in preparation for renewal on the 1st of November. Like a snake shedding its skin, the Moon and Sun in Scorpio, asks that we slough off tired, outmoded habits in order to prepare for a new cycle of renewal and beginnings. The White Moon (a point in the heavens where the earth and moon interact closely) is conjunct Jupiter bestowing protection at this time.

The moon never has known how to drink, All my shadow does is follow my body, But with moon and shadow as companions a while, This joy I find will surely last till spring.~ Li Bai

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 12.57pm until 1:29pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Steady accomplishment

The next few days are times for progressing and accomplishing goals. You can draw on self-discipline more than you usually do. Today joy has more of a foothold, so take the opportunity to engage in something that is uplifting. With the Moon opposite Chiron you can take the opportunity to let go of past inner-hurts. In fact the passage of Sun and Mercury in Scorpio invites you to cleanse and transform yourself through identifying the deep-inner cause of psychological wounds.

And only where the forest fires have sped, Scorching relentlessly the cool north lands, A sweet wild flower lifts its purple head, And, like some gentle spirit sorrow-fed, It hides the scars with almost human hands.~Emily Pauline Tekahionwake Johnson

Theme: Insight

Mercury in Scorpio conjunct the Vertex increases synchronicity and creates the opportunity for significant encounters with others, heightening Mercury’s capacity for insights and making connections. The Moon has moved into Libra lightening the sometimes intense gaze of the Sun in Scorpio which unearths the hidden parts of our psyche and purpose. Scorpio energy helps us have a clearer idea of what self-honesty actually is, contrasting with Libran energy which is conflict-averse.

The archaeology of grief is not ordered. It is more like earth under a spade, turning up things you had forgotten. Surprising things come to light…~Helen MacDonald

Theme: Profound Struggle

The powerful combination of Mars opposed to Pluto has begun and will last for 3 weeks. We will all find some frustrations in our lives now. This is one of the strongest predictors of violence. The energy peaks on Sunday November 3rd. However, the astroid, Juno, is at 90 degrees from both Mars and Pluto the whole time. Will this feminine force somehow resolve the conflict?

The American dream belongs to all of us. ~Kamala Harris

The Moon is void of course today from 4:05 am until 11:45 am EDT. Do not make any major decisions during this time period.

Astrology for 10/24/2024 Wednesday by Wangmo

Theme: Harnessing energy

With Mars gradually moving towards an exact opposition with Pluto it’s still time to self-monitor for potential eruptions. Find a safe outlet if pent up tensions are forced to the surface to avoid blaming others. Similarly in society pent up tensions are also forced to the surface: anyone working on calming their own mind can make a difference. The Moon has moved into Leo bringing a generosity of spirit and playfulness into the daily routine. With the Sun and Moon both in fixed signs there is both fortitude and stubborness in equal measure.

You keep going. That is the bodhisattva’s way. As long as it benefits even one being you have to, without any sense of discouragement, go on.~HH 16th Karmapa

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 12.47am until 1:24am. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.
