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.

Theme: Deepening

With the Sun now in Scorpio the focus is on research and investigation including deepening insights into what motivates you. Having insight frees you from habits grip. Scorpio is ruled by both Mars and Pluto, planets of action, endurance and transformation. Scorpio is a water sign so feelings are part of what is illuminated at this time. The Moon is conjunct Mars in Cancer opposite Pluto, a potent mix. Strong feelings are triggered: patience and non-reactivity give you time for reflection.

Theme: Home away from home

With the Moon in Cancer you seek to nurture others and be nurtured. Home can be a catalyst for grounding yourself and restoration. Home for some is the great outdoors, for others a cave. The Moon in Cancer often brings up the past and our connection to our parents, and family, and all that that entails. With Mars also in Cancer it’s a good time to identify what will help you move forward from the ties that bind you to the past.

Moonlight is sculpture; sunlight is painting.~Nathaniel Hawthorne

Theme: Seeking harmony and an expanded view

With the Sun trine the Moon conjunct Jupiter you can expect better outcomes today. This more benefic disposition is connected to your more optimistic and confident outlook. As with all things Jupiterian you have to watch for over-confidence and bombast. Venus is now in Sagittarius bringing an adventurous spirit and frankness in your relationships. Pluto is finally moving out of Capricorn into Aquarius. When Pluto enters Aquarius on November 19, a new phase of transformation to societal structures will begin.

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 5.00pm until 6:50pm. 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: Serious Thinking

Saturn is the Planet of the day as it trines with Mercury and squares the Moon. The former aspect indicates that this is a few days for critical thinking, and detailed work. This favors organizing and practical matters. The square to the Moon leaves us feeling isolated, and there is the danger of depression especially in the middle of the day. The Moon is in Gemini for two more days which should keep us from fixating on a particular mood.

We need to begin to stabilize the mind by sensing the difference between our nature and our conceptualizations. ~Jetsunma Akhon Norbu Lhamo

Theme: Another Yod

The Sun is the apex of the Yod again today, but now the Moon is conjunct Uranus as one leg, and Neptune is the other leg. So we are having to make small adjustments in our approach to our activities, and we will feel ill at ease emotionally today. The Moon will transition today from stable, secure Taurus to lively, changeable Gemini this afternoon. Expect a faster pace by the evening.

Nothing is softer or more flexible than water, yet nothing can resist it. ~Lao Tzu

The Moon is void of course today from 3:35 pm until 4:08 pm EDT. Do not make any big decisions during this time period

Theme: Smorgasbord of Energy

The most dangerous of many connective astrological bodies is the square of the Sun to Mars. This indicates serious ego conflicts with others. And we will soon have Mars opposed to Pluto which will be even more combative, and potentially violent. There is Juno conjunct the Sun which adds a harmonizing effect, and the Sun is still in Libra, the sign of balance. And the Sun is in a Yod with Uranus and Neptune for a few days. We will have to make some adjustments now.

Life is like a giant smorgasbord of more delicious alternatives than you can ever hope to taste. ~Ray Dalio

Theme: Healing and health

With the Moon poised between the asteroids and mythical figures of Chiron and his daughter Hygeia, health, healing and hygiene are key themes today. The Moon rules our day-to-day routines, including hygiene, which are important in keeping us healthy overall. Today, this connection is more obvious. Health is also about our psychological health, and includes healing from the past. The Moon is in Aries, and like all fire-sign placements is courageous, and headstrong, when dealing with challenges.

The first wealth is health.~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Theme: Slowing down

The Moon conjunct Neptune in Pisces gives pause for thought and reflection. Seek spaciousness and rest to allow the spiritual dimension to integrate more fully with your daily life. Gratitude comes more easily. It’s not a time for rules and regulations. Venus opposite Uranus calls for flexibility and spontaneity in the face of changing relationships.

Things are beautiful if you love them.~Jean Anouilh

The Moon is Void of Course today between EDT USA 4.00pm until 4:35pm. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts during this time. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.
