GO EASY ON YOURSELF AND OTHERS
Monday, November 11, 2019
You can generally expect a quiet day when the Moon is in Taurus, but today defies such simplicity. While you were sleeping, the typically stable Taurus Moon joined with anxious, excitable Uranus. Along with tomorrow’s Full Moon, this may have contributed to your sleep disruptions last night. As we know, not getting a good night’s sleep impacts everything.
At 10:21 AM EST, the Sun and Mercury (retrograde) join up, bringing a sharp focus to communication and the workings of your mind. No matter how much you wish you could slow down, some interactions are pulling you in different directions. Everyone seems to want a piece of you today. You might as well jump into the fray and do your best to keep up with the pace of interactions and communications.
Because Mercury is retrograde, there may be moments that bring great frustration. Slow down as much as you can, but go ahead and roll with the punches. Don’t be too hard on yourself or others.
GIFTS AND OPPORTUNITIES OFFERED ON THIS TAURUS FULL MOON
Tuesday, November 12, 2019
The Taurus Full Moon is exact at 8:35 AM EST, bringing the Moon into full illumination. With your emotions on full display, you may feel a bit overwhelmed. Folks are more erratic and behave in unusual ways during a Full Moon. However, today’s Full Moon holds sweetness, stability, and empowerment as she forms lovely aspects to Neptune, Saturn, and Pluto. Look for gifts of empowerment and stabilization and opportunities for compassion and love.
Because the Moon opposes Mercury (retrograde), be prudent in all communications. But, make no mistake that this is a very positive Full Moon.
Adding more juicy goodness to the day is a sweet sextile aspect from action-oriented Mars to expansive Jupiter. This aspect indicates successful results from actions taken. Act with courage in the house that holds Libra in your chart (where Mars is transiting.) Expect good fortune in the house that holds Sagittarius in your chart (where Jupiter is transiting.)
The effort put forth now will set the stage for an important new beginning when Mars joins with Jupiter in March 2020.

The Taurus Moon is void-of-course from 10:48 AM EST until the wee hours of Wednesday morning when she enters Gemini. This suggests that what occurs during this time will not have much impact.
DETERMINATION AND THE IMPORTANCE OF INTEGRITY
Wednesday, November 13, 2019
You will notice a big difference from yesterday as the Moon entered active talkative Gemini in the early hours of the morning. The Gemini Moon suggests a day of change, curiosity, and much activity.
With Mercury sextile Saturn and trine Neptune, consider past issues of great intensity. You will find that you are working to stabilize your thinking amid real confusion. I’m sure you can see how this is active, not only in your personal life but in the culture at large.
At 1 pm, the Scorpio Sun forms a lovely sextile aspect to Pluto. Pluto is the planet of empowerment and transformation, bringing great determination today.
You can accomplish something vital to your future by harnessing the power offered today. Misuse of this power can come back to bite you later. Make sure your intentions are clear and that you are in full integrity with your values and beliefs.

THE SOFTNESS OF FOG
Thursday, November 14, 2019
The Moon continues through Gemini today. Because so many thoughts are vying for mind-space, it may be challenging to focus.
Shortly after noon, lovely Venus forms a challenging square to Neptune creating a fog that pulls you further out of focus. You may be susceptible to confusion or over-idealization. Because this aspect increases your need for affection and love, you may mindlessly fall in love. Please realize that you do not see clearly. Your image of the beloved may be quite distorted and have little connection to reality.
In general, today is a good day to question your impressions and feelings. Your ideas and views about love, money, and beauty are not as they appear. Don’t trust your instincts today. Ask someone you trust and give yourself a few days to gain clarity. Go ahead and enjoy the softness that comes with a lack of clarity. Don’t make decisions that will be difficult to back out of when the fog clears.
AN EVENING FOR COMFORT FOOD AND FAMILY
Friday, November 15, 2019
A boost of energy starts the day as the active Gemini Moon forms an energized trine aspect to Pluto at 6:39 AM EST. This morning will be fun and full of curiosity and conversation.
When the Moon leaves Gemini to enter Cancer at 11:16 AM EST, you will notice folks quiet down and head back to their familiar surroundings. If you have already made plans to tear up the town with good-time friends tonight, it is not too late to change those plans.
Tonight is a Friday night when you will do much better to invite your closest friends or family to a home-cooked meal and nostalgic conversations. Pull out the photo albums and reminisce about old times. Before you go to bed, put it on the calendar to call your mom or sister tomorrow morning.
When the Moon is in Cancer, your emotions are on high alert, and you will be more sensitive than usual. Cook your favorite foods, show love by feeding and nurturing your loved ones. Home is where you want to be. I hope you can sleep late tomorrow morning. The more time you can spend cuddled in bed this weekend. the better.

CALL A DISTANT LOVED ONE
Saturday, November 16, 2019
Your best bet today is to relax and spend time at home with your family or closest loved ones. If you are far from home, you may struggle with nostalgia and loneliness. Call your mom, your sister, an aunt, or a best friend. Reach out and make contact with someone from your past who knows your heart well.
You are not the only one feeling sentimental and nostalgic. When you make that call to a distant loved one, you may never know how happy they are to hear from you.
Regardless of what you need to do today, be sure to keep your heart engaged. The sensitivity and emotional depth you bring to any situation or project will help. You are aware of what others need and can bring much needed nurturing to whatever, whoever, and wherever you are.
At 5:18 PM EST, when the Moon opposes Saturn, your moodiness can turn to crankiness. Do your best to spend an hour or two alone to recharge and self-nurture. If you are unable to do that, stay calm and allow everyone to have a bit of crankiness, let it pass, and don’t go for the bait.
WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES
Sunday, November 17, 2019
The Moon remains in Cancer for the bulk of the day, keeping your level of sensitivity and moodiness high. The best way to start the day is to enroll your family in cooking a delicious breakfast together. Languish over coffee and french toast, telling stories of the past. If anyone in your immediate circle has an emotional meltdown, take it in stride and be as supportive as possible. This has indeed been an emotional weekend.
At 4:57 PM EST, the Moon enters Leo. You may find yourself feeling social and wanting to get out of the house. Get dressed up and go out to dinner or a show. You want to show up on the social scene and be around others. You want attention and drama.
It has been such an inward weekend. If you can express yourself in a big way this evening, you won’t enter the coming week with resentment. The Leo Moon may feel that the sensitivity of the Cancer Moon was a waste of time. It wasn’t, but try telling that to Leo!

* In these weekly reports, I am exploring the major aspects formed by transit between the planets. I do not consider every aspect that the Moon makes each day as they can be numerous and are often fleeting moods. I will consider the final major aspect formed by the Moon prior to its VOC* time, as that aspect holds its influence throughout the VOC*.
The aspects under consideration: conjunctions, sextiles, squares, trines, and oppositions.
The planets I work with: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
