AstroRain Report November 5 - 11
The feisty, ready for action energies of Ta**us Full Moon come on a wave of what has most value and most practical benefit for all. The immediacy of responding to the sources of greatest suffering arises full force, for each of us individually and all of us together. This lunation is a SuperMoon, one of a few this year at closest approach to the Earth generating stronger influence particularly in the realms of emotions, internal processes, and dreaming asleep and awake. This puts us in touch with the very core of problems at crisis level right now and over most of the year.
Wed 5 5:19 am Moon perfects exact opposition to Scorpio Sun at 14th degree of those signs. It’s an alignment taking us deep into the more hidden or mystifying areas calling for facing the worst with dedication to finding the alchemical formula for transmutation. Applies in the personal and collective experience with wide open opportunities on the 2025 cosmic-earthly agenda. 3 major aspects bring the forces of change into more precise alignment accompanied by a dynamic, unstable, electrified opposition between Mars and Uranus. Pluto at the head of the Kite pattern foretells a face off between the oligarchs (whose greed has no limits) and the People. Jupiter in Cancer as part of that aspect echoes the higher intentions and possibilities present while Venus, Neptune and Saturn complete the Kite enabling progress in the bigger themes we’re all working with. Certainly power dynamics are at the forefront from the personal realm to the national and international.
Grand Cross is the next major formation with Jupiter, Chiron-Eris, Pluto and Venus creating a potent square that can manifest as feeling pulled in many directions at once. The more skillful use of that pattern is in devoting ourselves to centering, conscious breathing, and commitment to taking actions only resonating with “the good of all.” On the world stage the standoffs have huge implications for further disaster but are mitigated only by the extent the collective intervenes loud and clear. At this time there are 3 or more ongoing genocides with the national and international communities coming to the point of exhaustion and at the same time building a renewal of fierce resistance to the profiteers.
Venus’ role in the lunation in late degree of Libra strongly favors collaborations, negotiations and important turning points in all relationships and partnering of any kind. Venus also benefits efforts at coming to better balance and effectiveness in financial matters and resource management. The power push to force us into digital money where we lose control of our own finances is meeting with big resistance in England, France and other places and beginning to grow in the U.S as Venus square Pluto-Jupiter and opposite Chiron-Eris assure. Venus will continue to instigate greater balance personally and collectively for next few days.
Thur 6 Mars and Pluto make friendly company with each other continuing motivation for actions aimed at freedom from the more oppressive situations in individual experience and in the world. Venus quincunx Neptune requires extra sensitivity in all personal and professional dealings without which results are likely messy, confusing, ambiguous. In the afternoon Venus enters Scorpio for next few weeks of going deep into those realms of relationships and acquiring or distributing resources. Planet of values, self valuing, priorities, aesthetics in tense aspect to Uranus by 3:31 pm pushes for an adjustment in those areas, one or more of them.
Meanwhile 2 planets about to turn retrograde in coming days add elements of caution to making moves before thorough review and investigations are accomplished.
Fri 7 Uranus the Awakener slips back into last degree of Ta**us in its retrograde pass emphasizing the areas of money, all material resources, the biosphere in general which includes all earth movements, of which there continue to be many. Venus square Pluto exposes more power games in our economic reality and in all manner of encounters and alliances. The ongoing agenda right now for the brightest planet in the Solar System is to help us make things fair and equal wherever personal, community or national soveriegnty is challenged. And this at a paek with Full Moon’s illuminations. Personal finances undergoing changes or needing to be re-negotiated with ourselves to optimize good use of what we have.
By Sunday at 11:02 am Mercury goes full on Trickster until the 29th, turning retrograde at 7th degree of Sagittarius. Next 3 weeks of reviewing, remembering, re-doing have emphasis on the meaning behind all information, messages, news stories, as Sagittarius sends Winged Messenger, Traveler Between the Worlds, on the path of truth and higher consciousness. We’re more able to get an overview of what’s going on locally and beyond, and also our own thinking on important matters. Wherever 21 Scorpio to 7 Sagittarius fall in natal charts are areas of particularly thorough explorations if we intend to maximize the opportunity. Of course the miscommunications and delayed schedules are part of this passage; being aware makes the glitches easier to get through. And making important agreements or alliances best left until the retrograde pass ends.
Tuesday the 11th is Jupiter’s turn to retrograde for the next few months. At 25 degrees Cancer this period through winter ’25-’26 calls for fine tuning our personal and collective nurturing and practicing mutually supportive relationships. From self care to family, tribe, community and beyond our role in a suffering world (of our own making) is crucial. Jupiter’s passage will re-cross Cancer back to 15 degrees when it pivots direct in March. This abundant opportunity for reviewing and improving anything in our domestic realm needing attention, and anything related to the House placement of Cancer in personal charts, won’t come around again for 12 years.
