 This week’s astrology forecast:

November 24th – 30th

Message for the week:

After the emotional turbulence of last week, the cosmic energy smooths out, with Venus, the planet of love, values, and relationships being highlighted. Venus will be conjunct Mercury on Monday, in a Grand Trine with Jupiter and Saturn on Wednesday, opposite Uranus on Saturday and trine to Neptune on Sunday. That’s a whole lotta love! The first half of the week is particularly favorable for deep bonding with others. By the weekend’s Uranus influence, there can be a strong desire to shake things up and do something a bit wild and crazy.

This is the final week of Mercury in Scorpio retrograde—it will be turning direct on Saturday—it ain’t been easy. This retrograde has been like a scrubber pad on emotional vulnerabilities. This week should be smoother in that regard as well, with Mercury on Venus and part of the water Grand Trine—smooth, flowing emotions, Ahh!  The Mercury/Venus conjunction can get you thinking about loved ones from the past and it is an excellent week to reach out and reconnect.

Thanksgiving—I am so thankful and appreciative for you who have supported and encouraged my forecasting/navigating—thank you!

Monday: Mercury and Venus are conjunct in Scorpio—along with whispering sweet nothings to your love interest, this is a good day to be shrewd financially. The Moon is in “taking care of business” Capricorn in a favorable sextile to the Mercury/Venus conjunction, bringing attention to the “lets keep things humming along” tone of the day. The Moon is opposite expansive Jupiter and sextile to restrictive Saturn, inspiring big goals and the awareness of the necessary steps to achieve these goals.

Tuesday: The mind gets kicked into high gear today with the Moon entering free-thinking Aquarius conjunct compelling Pluto in the morning, seizing your attention to something you feel passionate about. The Moon then moves into a favorable sextile to the energizing Sun, making for a lively, high-spirited day for interacting with others.

Wednesday: Venus is in a Grand Trine with Jupiter and Saturn, stabilizing and empowering love relationships and close interaction with others. To start the day, the Moon is in free-spirited Aquarius, energized by a stimulating sextile to empowering Mars—destiny favors the bold.  You may experience a bit of angst this evening, while the Moon is square to Mercury—stressing over finances or holiday plans?

Thursday: Happy Thanksgiving! There may be a monkey wrench thrown into your plans for the day, but a smooth and flowing holiday unfolds. The Moon is in future-oriented Aquarius in a disruptive square to unpredictable Uranus to start the day, bringing some unexpected news. The Moon then moves into open-hearted Pisces midday, creating the space for deep meaningful interaction with others.  A square to the Sun late tonight can be annoying—dishes and clean-up?.

Friday: A good day for lazing around and doing nuttin’ with the Moon in “go with the flow” Pisces with no motivating or disruptive aspects through most of the day. The Moon does square activating Mars this evening, motivating you to get out and do something even if you don’t feel like it.

Saturday: Your mind is free to return to normal broadcasting today with Mercury turning direct—hallelujah! A busy day in the heavens with many aspects. Venus is opposite electrifying Uranus, activating the urge to walk on the wild side and cut loose. The Moon starts the day in Pisces trine to uplifting Jupiter while also conjunct responsible Saturn, reminding you what you should do. A magical, mystical and exciting afternoon and evening is available with the Moon in a flowing trine to lovely Venus, sextile to innovative Uranus and conjunct mystical Neptune. The excitement continues this evening as the Moon enters enthusiastic Aries this evening sextile to Pluto giving deep reserves of energy—flame on! 

Sunday: A lovely day in the heavens with the two octaves of love, Venus, personal love, and Neptune, spiritual love, in a harmonious trine, favoring artists, romantics and spiritual seekers. Venus then moves into upbeat Sagittarius. The Moon is in enthusiastic Aries in a supportive trine to the enlivening Sun, adding to the positive vibe of the day—Enjoy! 

May the stars be with you!
