New Moon in Sagittarius: Firm Ambitions

The moon is new in Sagittarius (9:05 am) on November 26. Busting down locked in patterns is a theme, inviting spontaneity and surprises! Dreaming big within practical confines can be stepping-stones to achievement. Previously on November 20, Mercury went direct. During the Mercury Retrograde, a pot was simmering on the stove. Before eating, the hot meal cools on the plate. The meanings of Mercury Retrograde are gradually digested and the new moon is a time to move forward.

Jupiter, the planet of luck and abundance, ingresses from Sagittarius into Capricorn on December 3! Jupiter in Sagittarius can be compared to a rocket ship flight in outer space, a disco party in the sky. When Jupiter ingresses into Capricorn, it is like a rocket ship descends back down to earth. Will the landing be smooth? What journeys in the outer limits of Jupiter in Sagittarius become useful lessons? Jupiter in Capricorn asks for flights of fancy to be grounded and is associated with prudence regarding financial economics. It asks how wealth may be expanded using forethought.

The holidays this year coincide with eclipse season, with a solar eclipse in Capricorn on December 25. More to come on that later . . .

To help smooth out your journey, try some of the Eye of Horus’ Van Van Oil or Van Van Spray. This energetic blend is designed to open the doors and remove the obstacles in your path, ensuring a safe and pleasant journey. For a little extra help in staying grounded, light Coventry Creations’ Stability candle. Alive with Earth elements, this candle helps solidify your energetic foundations. Finally, to ensure your dreams are protected and positive, try some of Eye of Horus’ Protection Oil. Rich and earthy, this blend helps keep negative influences away.

Full Moon in Taurus: Earthly Delights

Full Moon in Taurus: Earthly Delights

The full moon in Taurus November 12 (7:43 am) turns up the five senses that bask in earthly delights and also the psychic sixth sense! Exploring the senses in love, music, art, and cuisine could be what the doctor ordered. Desiring more and expanding options may tip the scales toward overindulgence. It’s a time to play with fantasies, keeping in mind that all is not exactly what it seems. Discoveries come into view but the meaning of them gets clearer over time.

Mercury is still retrograde in Scorpio; revisiting the past is a part of the story. A mystery with a question mark hanging over its head returns for revision. Reconnection occurs through different forms, such as a phone call or email. Or the missing pieces of the puzzle appear in an alternative manner, such as a dream or an uncovered memory. Deep and passionate feelings resurface during Scorpio season and get openly expressed as Venus and Jupiter reside in fiery Sagittarius. Secrets become revealed indirectly.

Embracing the stillness of a slower pace gives space for reflection. Debacles and snafus that get in the way can redirect energies to where they need to go, though they may deter from the original plan. What appears to be imagination and daydreams now eventually opens up new avenues.

To connect with the sensual world and your desires, use some of Eye of Horus’ Love Oil or Love Spray. This essential oil blend is perfect for opening up to love, pleasure, and sensuality. To help reconcile with your deeper feelings and discover the mysteries there, burn some of Morningstar’s Amber incense. This light, warm, and powerful incense encourages creativity, wisdom, and making good decisions. Finally, to reflect on, redirect, and open up new paths, light Coventry Creations’ Needed Changes candle. It’s designed to get you out of the energetic ditch and onto a smooth road toward a better future.

New Moon in Scorpio and Samhain

New Moon in Scorpio and Samhain

New Moon in Scorpio

The moon is new in Scorpio on October 27 (10:38 pm). The screw turns another rotation down the thread, reiterating a theme that occurred in early August. A break in the pattern or a change in rhythm is indicated by this new moon. Rebel archetypes don’t care to follow standard traditions with Venus in Scorpio and Mars in Libra.

Venus embodies the attraction principal, but when she’s in Scorpio it goes deeper than surface beauty and social niceties. A curious magnetism gravitating toward mystery depicts Venus in Scorpio, such as a ghost wife or zombie bride! Mars is the fighter and warrior archetype. When he’s in Libra, he isn’t hotly direct and forceful but instead dispassionately responsive. A transformative edge runs beneath the undercurrents of this new moon, as relationship dynamics come up to the surface for review.

The mood is highly celebratory October 31, yet hibernation mode begins shortly after! Samhain and Halloween mark Mercury beginning it’s retrograde in Scorpio (10:42 am) that lasts until November 20. As per usual this time of year, the veil between worlds becomes thin and gets even thinner yet when Mercury appears to rewind. Introspection leads to reflections that reveal buried treasures. Occult mysteries become glamorized! Spectres might pay a visit, what is it they have to say?

To tap into the power of transformation flowing through the air, light some of Shoyeido’s Diamond incense. This incense is designed to help you tap into your personal power to shine as bright and endure as long as a diamond. To help hear some of the messages coming through, add Eye of Horus’ Meditation Oil to your routine. This oil is designed to help you concentrate, focus, and find your spiritual center, opening you up to what the universe is trying to tell you. Finally, to break through the patterns and establish something new, light Coventry Creations’ Outta My Way candle. Part of the Wicked Witch Mojo line, this candle is meant to help you clear away the old and bring in the new.
