Energy Uranus in Taurus is eclipsed but also, by the very shadow cast, highlighted – matter is energy and energy matters.
Sharp synapses time. Uranus is in exact conjunction with the eclipsed Moon, at 16º Taurus, in exact opposition by degree not only to the Sun but to Mercury as well, both at 16º Scorpio. This is ultra sharp synapses, in breakthrough – through the tense squares to Saturn, the structures; heading to ample Neptunian comprehension. We could think of it as the hard disc being crafted with more memory space, for a smoother and more complex software to operate. It’s upgrading time. Not without breaking through some Saturnian walls.
The top astrological highlight of the week is, undoubtedly, the shadow event: the Total Lunar Eclipse – and peak of the lunation, a Full Moon – on Nov 8, at 10:59 UTC. Interestingly, on the same day of the US mid term elections.
Most astro aspects of this week are totally intertwined with the eclipse, emphasizing the tectonic dance, as Venus, Mercury, Sun and Moon aspect the Saturn-Uranus square. Whilst throughout the week they all form hard aspects to the tectonic dancing lords Saturn and Uranus, which mark the intrinsic tensions of the current structural changes of the world-system and our lives, a parallel movement is also in play.
Venus, Mercury and the Sun in Scorpio will be forming, up until the first days of next week, a grand Water trine to Neptune in Pisces (comprehension and conception) and to the Black Moon (the undercurrent) and Pallas (the geopolitics goddess) in Cancer.
The Sun and his entourage (Mercury and Venus) further activate the structural changes and bring Scorpionic depth and transformation to geopolitical conceptions.
In personal lives, this is an excellent moment for upping the game. Change of patterns, radical changes or detachments that allow for upgrading are favored. Save the baby, but throw away the dirty water.
With Sun opposite Uranus (exact on Nov 9), we open the space and get rid of excess luggage and excess ego. With Sun square Saturn (exact on Nov 11), we endure and own it. With Sun trine Neptune next week (exact on Nov 15), we allow for cinematographic magic – or, at least, a greater comprehension and clearer expression, where things can make sense, and even have some artistic beauty to them.
Mind you: that could always be used by the dark side of the force – but the Sun’s light in Scorpio won’t let that go undercover. It’s a time to uncover. And discover.
With the Uranian electrical and radiating buzz, freeing ourselves from Saturnian oppression, and getting into Neptunian flow, through unmistakably dangerous but also interesting times: We Can Dance. And the sky highly recommends it.
