Cosmic Weather:

The authoritative Sun, symbolizing our ego and will, makes its annual conjunction with assertive Mars in investigative, transformational Scorpio today (12:42 am). Potentially inspiring us to confidently or courageously act upon or defend our deepest passions or ambitions. At the same time, perhaps stoking our desire for employing new methods, new approaches, including embracing/welcoming new beginnings. Existing situations could also reach pivotal turning points.

Planetary conjunctions represent birthdays, of sorts. Fresh starts.

To this end, Waxing Luna’s entrance into experimental Aquarius (6:28 am) also helps to support this more galvanizing, pioneering Sun-Mars energy.

While breakthroughs are possible – and perhaps more likely now – due, in part, to our potentially more determined, undaunted desire to go to the next level or see matters through to the very end, on the shadow side, we may also want to be more mindful of a tendency, at the moment, to go to extremes (the Scorpio energy), when perhaps a more nuanced approach might, ultimately, serve us better in the long run.

Too, proactively seeking to avoid engaging in more reactive behavior (such as throwing temper tantrums when something/someone provokes our ire) or taking measures to contain inflammable situations before they erupt or get out of hand may also go far to adding to the peace, stability, and success of the day.

On the other hand, now may also be a healthy time to share/vent how we really feel about things in a bid to clear the air. This is also a good period for purging/repurposing items.

Additionally, now could be a litmus test to see how well we are using/abusing/wielding our personal power. We may also gain a fresh new understanding or awareness concerning what really excites us at our core/what truly makes us come alive.

“Mastering others is strength. Mastering yourself is true power.” – Lao Tzu

On This Day in History:  On November 18, 1963, Bell Telephone introduces the touch-tone telephone to customers in Pennsylvania. (Before this new advance, we had the old-fashioned rotary dial telephone.)

Astrologically, that day, enterprising Mars, in futuristic Sagittarius, was exactly sextile to solidifying Saturn in innovative Aquarius. An excellent influence for building upon the trusty structure of the past.

Hope it’s a good one! Please be safe and well.
