Sun in a new sign and a new moon -- the Astrology of the week of Oct. 21, 2019

Hello Friends,

The Sun moves into Scorpio and a new Moon on the weekend also in Scorpio are the highlights of the week.

We start the week with a trine (positive aspect) between Venus (in Scorpio) and Neptune (in Pisces) on Monday, October 21, 2019. As I've written before Venus rules money and relationships and Neptune rules imagination, mystery, illusion and dreams. Both planets are in Water signs, so prepared for blissful emotions, a boost to creativity and maybe a blessing in money or relationships. A great way to start the week.

By Wednesday, the Sun moves from the sign of Libra into the sign of Scorpio, where it will be for the next four weeks. The Sun joins Mercury and Venus who are already in the sign.

Scorpio is a water sign and ruled by Pluto (god of the underworld). Water signs usually signify emotions, but for the Scorpio, the emotions are down in the depths. But when those emotions surface, there is a lot of passion and intensity. On top of that is its ruling planet, Pluto, that brings seismic transformations into our lives. Pluto is about the ending of one phase and beginning of another.

So for the next four weeks, you have the opportunity while the Sun, Venus, and Mercury in Scorpio to do some in depth examination of your relationships and communications. Dig deep to bring to the surface anything that needs to be healed. You might see some relationships end, but others transform.

By the end of the week, on Sunday, Oct. 27, three aspects are occurring.
1.  Mars (in Libra) squares/challenges Saturn (in Capricorn)
2. New Moon in Scorpio at 4 degress.
3. late in the day, the Sun (in Scorpio) opposes Uranus (in Taurus)

Get some extra rest this day because of the challenging aspect of Mars v. Saturn. The Mars energy of moving forward is being held back by restrictive Saturn. You may feel physically tired. The new moon signs our new beginning on an emotional level if we take advantage of the energy. Moon joining the Sun, Venus, and Mercury intensives the emotional depths. The last aspect of the Sun opposing Uranus starts later in the day and goes into Monday. This one may bring something unexpected that happens or a sudden shift of energy.

The vision I got from Spirit at the end of this examination of the week is that we are all starting out at the shallow end of the pool at the beginning of the week and by the end, we are at the deep end. Don't fight it, go with the flow of the water. Just be prepared to dive below the surface.

Blessings,
