ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE from Karmic Evolution’s Astrologically Speaking’s Sheri Horn Hasan, October 29:
Communication shifts from Mercury in Scorpio’s dark, secretive intensity to a more fiery outspoken tone when Mercury enters Sagittarius late on October 30 or early the 31st, depending on your time zone. This shift can result in less than diplomatic outbursts because Sadge favors truth over diplomacy! Watch out for this fiery rhetoric as we get closer to the U.S. midterm elections November 6…
Mercury in Sadge can be impatient–he’s known to blurt things out spontaneously without thought for the repercussions—AND he tends to exaggerate, favoring the big picture over the details. It would be an understatement to say that this next week will be filled with a number of “hoof in mouth” statements that may or may not be borne out by the actual factual truth…
Regardless, however, while Mercury’s in Sadge until December 1 when he retrogrades back to Scorpio (he’ll station retrograde in Sadge November 16), and again from December 12 until he enters Capricorn on January 4, it’s the perfect time to take up your pen.
Why?
Because—despite its previously mentioned shortcomings–Mercury in Sagittarius creates excellent raconteurs & writers! Record your revelations about that which you’ve grown in consciousness on paper or otherwise…you may or may not decide to share them, that’s not the relevant part, as writing often helps us clarify issues for ourselves first before we impart anything about such issues to others…
When Venus retrograde in Scorpio opposes Uranus in Taurus once again early on October 31 we may experience some surprises leading up to Halloween. However, the goddess of beauty & love moves back into Libra–the sign of diplomatic partnerships–later that day & until December 1.
This Venus retrograde shift in sign provides the opportunity to remember past relationships & to make peace with/about them from the vantage point of having gained greater consciousness between now and then.
It’s a good time to discover more about our true motives in both past and present relationships. Where may we have compromised for the sake of peace & thus become dis-empowered? How might caring more about our partner than for ourselves have affected our relationships ultimately?
Likewise, where might indecisiveness have led to allowing others to take control during these relationships & make ALL of the decisions? Has that served us well or might we want to review this now and think about changing our perspective moving forward, especially once Venus retrograde ends on November 16.
Between now and December 1, however, while she’s in Libra, the Libra portion of the Venus retrograde journey will focus specifically on how we can work to be our own best e, epartner first to ensure healthier partnerships for our future…
Jupiter in Scorpio trines wounded healer Chiron November 1, & we may receive additional enlightenment about how we might review past wounds through expansion in consciousness about them. For example, perhaps we were more complicit in our own wounding than we previously acknowledged, as per that mentioned above? Just some food for thought now…
Venus retrograde in Libra follows with her own trine to Chiron November 3. Release old wounds through your greater consciousness now about them & find the love in your heart to view yourself with compassion.
