November 2018 Horoscope

Posted by on


We begin the month of November with the energies of the planet Venus still in retrograde, highlighting our relationships, our money and the things we value in general. Many of us have been feeling the extra tension from this. Hopefully we are using this time wisely to re-evaluate things and to restore balance in our lives. Venus will turn direct once more on November 16th, the same day that Mercury goes retrograde and it feels a bit like the planets are playing around with us!

Mercury will be in retrograde from November 16th until December 6th but do keep in mind there is approximately ten days of the shadow period before and after the dates. We can sometimes see the effects of the retrograde during the shadow, especially those of us who have a strong Mercury influence in our personal charts.

While this is happening, it is important to keep in mind that this energy often brings with it extra frustration as communication is often strained in some form or another. It is wise to make backup plans and to make backup copies of important documents and files. If you plan on traveling during this time, it is wise to be prepared for possible delays, lost luggage, missing passports, etc.  

This is a good time for preventive maintenance so getting your car serviced, getting a physical, getting insurance, etc are all favored during this time.

A Mercury Retrograde period is the best time for doing any sort of review work. Think of the prefix “re” and apply it to just about anything and you get the idea: review, redo, revise, renew, remodeling, redecorating, etc. Practice patience and be prepared for plans to change or to fall through and you will handle this retrograde just fine!

Here's a quick guide on what to do and what not to do during a Mercury Retrograde for best results!


On November 7th, we have a New Moon in Scorpio at 15 degrees. Scorpio is one of the strongest signs in the zodiac. It often deals with the harsh lessons of losing something or letting go of something that is difficult to release, but there is always growth in this if we can choose to see it and surrender to the transformative power of Scorpio.

During this New Moon, the Sun and Moon will be making a trine aspect with the planet Neptune. This is wonderful energy for any sort of dealings with the arts; music, poetry, writing, art, etc. This is also compassionate energy, reminding you to show compassion not only for others but also with yourself. Spirituality is also highlighted with this energy and it is a good time for setting intentions having to do with your spiritual life.

Also, Venus will be square to Pluto, ruler of Scorpio and this energy can bring out obsessions, compulsions or you may be involved with someone you know is not good for you. It could bring back an old lover who wants to reconnect with you and if this is wanted, this may need some emotional healing before you can fully reconnect. It is also good energy for taking something up that you used to love but haven’t made time for, such as a hobby or sport that you enjoy. Because Venus is still retrograde during this time, it is important to remember to love yourself and give yourself the extra attention that you need. Venus also rules money so it might be a good time to revisit your relationship to money as well.

Jupiter is at the last degree of Scorpio during this phase and so it is time to let go of the old things, to release any pain you might be holding on to unnecessarily and get ready to move on. 

Now let’s not forget that Uranus, the planet of change is also in retrograde now until March.  On November 6th, just prior to this New Moon, Uranus will enter into the sign of Aries once again. This is a time to look back over the past 7 years when Uranus first entered the sign of Aries and see how far you have come since then. During the New Moon phase, this is a wakeup call to look at your past actions, review them and make new decisions to move forward again in a new way.

On November 8th, Jupiter will enter its own sign of Sagittarius and the energies shift once more. In Sagittarius, Jupiter is at home and many of us will feel an uplifting energy from this! This is a time for expanding the mind, expanding your experiences and venturing into new territory. Optimistic expansion is the energy behind this so look to see where Sagittarius is in your chart to see which areas will be highlighted for you. If you would like help in reading your chart, feel free to contact me.
On November 15th, Mars the planet of energy and direct action will enter into the dreamy and mystical sign of Pisces. While Mars is here, the energies are more subtle and we are more guided by our intuition than our intellect. For water signs (Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio) the energy will be assisting in your personal energy levels so take advantage!

On the night of the 22nd or 23rd depending on your time zone, we have the Full Moon in Gemini. This energy is social energy. It highlights our intellect, our ideas and our conversations. This is a good time to evaluate how you have been processing things mentally, are you glossing over details, getting too involved in gossip, being too restless and flighty in your thoughts? Remember, Full Moons are a great time for releasing so take a look at what things you are juggling in your life and determine what needs to be released or delegated to help you restore balance in your life.

On November 24th the planet Neptune goes direct once more. It has been retrograde since June in its own sign of Pisces. During this time, we often learn about some ugly truths either about our relationships with others, about ourselves or about our world. This is also a time when our spirituality is brought into focus and we are called to examine our more spiritual needs and see what needs to be done to reconnect with that part of ourselves. As Neptune turns direct once more, we hopefully have restored that connection, handled the truth we have learned with maturity and wisdom and found our faith renewed as we venture forward toward making our dreams a reality.

In Numerology, November is a number 4 universal month. This is a time for making plans, putting down roots, settling in and building foundations. Keep in mind with the Mercury retrograde, there may be some delays or some bumps in the actualization of this energy but with a little patience and understanding of divine timing, this shouldn’t be a problem!

Have a wonderful month!

Entering The Fifth Dimension

As many of you may already know, I have been studying astrology for the past twenty-five years. Because of this, I am used to friends and strangers asking me questions about their personal lives. But lately, the questions I’ve been asked have a much broader, planetary perspective. People are looking around the world today and many are fearful, confused by most of what they see. They want to know just what in the hell is going on? So I decided it was time for me to write this post to help answer some of these questions based on what I have learned and believe.
It’s In The Stars

Over the past sixty years or so, our planet has undergone tremendous change and many of us today can feel it. There is so much information thrown at us 24 hours a day and things seem to be getting weirder and weirder, most of us just aren’t sure what to think anymore. We can sense that something big is about to happen. We can feel a stirring within the human consciousness and many of us are just plain frightened…

11:11 the Awakening Code

It’s been happening again and again - you notice the clock right at 11:11. You aren’t sure what it means, but something about it strikes you as important or significant in some way. You try to dismiss it, yet it keeps popping up. What could it mean? Are you losing your mind? Are you just being superstitious? Or could it mean something much more cosmically significant?
I have been studying numerology for nearly twenty years now and there isn’t a week that goes by where I don’t hear from someone about their experience with the 11:11 phenomena. More and more people are beginning to notice this number and they are questioning its significance. I have heard many interesting theories as to why this is happening and what it could mean. As a numerologist and a spiritual consultant, this is my personal take on it…
In numerology, the number 11 is considered a Master Number (along with the numbers 22 and 33). Master Numbers vibrate at a higher frequency than the other numbers. This means they c…

When You’re Awake but Your Loved Ones Are Not

You’ve felt the pull. You’ve noticed the signs. Your life is changing; you are having your spiritual awakening. It isn’t long before you begin to realize that you feel differently than the people around you. Even though you’ve known them for years or even all of your life, suddenly their opinions and viewpoints feel foreign to you. You may even feel disgusted with a sudden realization at just how petty their so called problems are. When you try to explore this new found path and share it with them, you are met with their resistance. You’re angry and hurt at their lack of support. Tension mounts as you struggle to make peace within yourself. It can be a lot to handle for a newly awakened individual. Here are my thoughts on how to deal with this transition into a more awakened and spiritual life.
Energy and Vibrations
First of all, take a deep breath and let yourself relax. You are dealing with a very big issue; you are dealing with something on a multidimensional level. It is natural …

19 Signs You Are Experiencing A Spiritual Awakening and What To Do About It

There is something wonderful happening on this planet right now. Many of the old ways are coming into question, systems are collapsing, relationships are dissolving, more and more questions are being asked and people are beginning to feel increasingly wary and restless. The consciousness of humanity is growing and people are beginning to take notice. Do you recognize yourself in that? If you do, then you are being called now to wake up.

Just like everything else, consciousness evolves and we humans are no exception to that. We astrologers have known about it for a long, long time. Many believe that as of December 21, 2012, we are in the new age, the Age of Aquarius. This is a time of great change and radical evolution. This is a time of consciousness growth and greater spiritual awareness. Some will go with the flow of these changes, eager to evolve while others may find themselves lost, confused and alone. If you are in the latter group, then this article is for you.

The Anxiety Frequency

We humans are far more telepathic than many would have us believe. We communicate way beyond our spoken words and written language. We communicate visually, physically, emotionally and psychically. Many of us feel an unspoken communication with our pets or plants and some even claim they can tap into the consciousness of inanimate objects. Not to mention that we are empathetic by nature, capable of wincing in pain simply by witnessing someone else get hurt. It is almost as though we are all connected by an unseen, wireless network of telepathic energies. 
Well, maybe we are.
Most of us understand how a radio works. A radio station transmits a sound signal, which is broadcast as radio waves. These radio waves have unique frequencies which transmit out. Miles away, someone with a radio receiver tunes into that frequency and they can hear the sound signal sent by the station. 
I dare to postulate that we, as humans do the same with emotional energies. We are like biological, emotional a…
