Heads Up!

The Writer’s Astrological Almanac

by Kathy Watts

November 2011

Happy November!   Autumn and the closing of the year is upon us with its usual vengeance.

We start on a Tuesday (the day of the week ruled by Mars) with the Moon void of course in Capricorn.  It’s easy to work hard on something already started.  In the wee small hours Mercury exactly squares Neptune.  You may dream dissatisfaction, but on waking things will be fine.  Before dawn, the Moon enters Aquarius.  Enjoy a focused day.

Wed  Nov 02 the Moon is in Aquarius all day.  Work with a clear mind.  In the early hours, Venus changes signs and enters the expansive and uplifting sign of Sagittarius.  This will lighten anyone’s mood.  Eight hours later, in the late morning, Mercury leaves Scorpio behind to enter Sagittarius.  You can be serious in a bigger, less brutal way.

Thu Nov 03 the Moon is in Aquarius when Venus trines Uranus in the wee smalls.  Dabble with some small quaint experiment.  Six hours later Mercury trines Uranus.    Dabble more cleverly.  As Mercury and Venus slowly perfect their conjunction, we’ll see these mirrored aspects get closer together in time.  That night, the Moon conjuncts Neptune in Aquarius, then goes void of course.  Dream your to-do list for tomorrow.

Fri Nov 04 the Moon enters Pisces.  Five  hours later, the Moon squares Mercury, and thirty-one minutes later, the Moon squares Venus.  Note that it happens to Mercury first, as Mercury is still catching up with Venus.  The gap is closing fast, though.  Emotions may be near the surface.  Write something romantic.

Sun Nov 06 the Moon conjuncts Uranus in Aries.  Surprise yourself with an abnormally busy weekend.

Mon Nov 07 the Moon is in Aries when Mars exactly opposes Neptune.  Write with extra deliberation because you can make unusually strong impressions today.  

Tue Nov 08 the Moon is in Aries when what to me is a profound non-event happens.  Mercury and Venus are with 3 minutes of arc of an exact conjunction at 07 Sag when Mercury slows down and begins to fall behind.  From now on, Mercury will fall progressively farther behind.  Mercury won’t be stationary retrograde for fifteen days, but today we can see the planet slow down in its pursuit to catch up with Venus.  It’s not going to happen this year.  Heads Up to us all.  Enjoy the prolonged sweetness of Mercury and Venus in Sagittarius but don’t expect perfection.  This is also the day when the Sun advances to 16 Scorpio and escapes from the Fiery Road.  The Via Combusta is behind us.  Look forward to a less severe general atmosphere.

Wed Nov 09 the Moon conjuncts Jupiter in Taurus in the morning.  Luxuriate in the creation process.  Early afternoon, Neptune goes stationary direct.  Imaginations may become slightly more active.

Thu Nov 10 is the Full Moon at 18 Taurus.  Work towards something beautiful, no matter how material.  In the evening, Mars changes signs and enters Virgo.  This can further help us focus on making the details of things more beautiful.

Fri Nov 11 the Moon enters Gemini.  Enjoy from now until Sunday evening all those marvelous mercurial pursuits, including writing.

Sat Nov 12 the Moon is in Gemini when it exactly opposes ruler Mercury in Sagittarius.  Are you working on the right project, or just hiding in the trivial?  Fifty minutes later, the Moon opposes Venus.  Relax; anything can be improved.

Wed Nov 16 the Moon is in Leo when Mars exactly trines Jupiter.  It’s not often that so much energy can be applied to self-control and truly mastering something.

Thu Nov 17 the Moon is still in Leo when it trines Mercury, and four hours later trines Venus.  This is a lot of fire; write fast and furious then fix later.

Fri Nov 18 the Moon conjuncts Mars in Virgo.  Don’t waste time or energy being embarrassed by first drafts.  Be grateful for the first draft in hand and charge on!

Sat Nov 19 the Moon is in Virgo when it exactly squares Mercury.  No criticism or self-criticism is going to distract you today.

Sun Nov 20 the Moon is still in Virgo when it squares Venus in the very early morning.  Think more about substance and less about appearance.  This follows the square to Mercury by more than six hours.

Mon Nov 21 the Moon is in Libra all day.  Today is the last full day that the Sun spends in Scorpio.  Tomorrow the world will be much bigger and brighter.  Heads Up.

Tue Nov 22 the Moon is in Libra when the Sun changes signs and enters Sagittarius.  Look on the world with more generous eyes.  About two hours later, the Moon conjuncts Saturn.  Heads Up.  Respect and seriousness are always appreciated when the Moon conjuncts Saturn.  And, tomorrow Mercury will station and go retrograde.  Major Heads Up.  Take your traditional precautions and look forward to a few weeks of scrambled plans, communications, and mechanical mischief.

Wed Nov 23 the Moon is in Scorpio when Mars exactly trines Pluto.  Heads Up.  Don’t be too ready and eager to make the wrong change.  Late that night, Mercury stations and goes retrograde.  You know, maybe Mercury retrograde is a good time to write steampunk and monsters run amok stories.  Heads Up.  Also, if that’s not enough, tomorrow is the New Moon (and solar eclipse).  Heads Up!!  Don’t get timid, but stay cautious.

Thu Nov 24 we have the New Moon (and solar eclipse) at 02Sag.  Begin something fresh, new, big, and generous and worthy of sharing with the world.

Sat Nov 26  the Moon conjuncts Mercury in Sagittarius.  Have a glorious weekend but don’t let it get blown out of control.  Even writers can get exhausted.  Two and a half hours later, Venus changes signs and enters Capricorn.  This can slow down the social interactions.  That evening, the Moon conjuncts Venus in Capricorn.  Admire someone else’s achievements.

Sun Nov 27 the Moon conjuncts Pluto in Capricorn.  Get mentally organized for the coming week.  In the afternoon, Venus exactly trines Jupiter.  Enjoy everything you do, no matter how silly or slight.

Wed Nov 30 the Moon is in Aquarius all day.  Be inventive.  It keeps your mind fresh.  In the early morning, the Moon sextiles Mercury retrograde.  This can make mundane assignments easier if not fun.

It’s a high energy and a highly emotional month.  Inspiration and productivity are where you find them, and in November, inspiration and productivity are all over the place.  Every place you look, everywhere you turn, you can find what you need plus some to keep the wheels turning and    accomplish what you need to do.  Have a fantastic month and position yourself well to jump into whatever comes next in the last month of the year.  Heads Up!
