Lunar Eclipse, Mercury conjunct Mars Astrology for Oct 29th-Nov 4th, 2023

Shamanic Yoga and Spirit Guide Journey Postponed to Thursday, November 2nd 6:00 pm

A limited number of spaces available for sign up www.leapingwatersyoga.com

Sunday ~ Taurus Moon in the wake of yesterday's lunar eclipse, Full Moon. Extremes and intensity are highlighted as the Moon opposes Mercury and Mars, & also meets Jupiter and Uranus. Mercury and Mars meets in Scorpio. Fixed, unyielding feelings and situations may create conflict or disagreement, yet are rocked by the tremors of Uranus instigating undeniable change. There's also impulse for growth, expansion and even romantic, deeply connected emotions linked to Venus and the Moon in harmony. You may find this day to be at one extreme or the other. Wear Pink.

Monday ~Taurus Moon cycle comes to completion and we begin to move out of the initial eclipse events or announcements and into the waning phase. Neptune and Pluto align with the Moon, which lends well to meditative and artistic practices. Void Moon 4:36 am to 11:08 am ET. Gemini Moon time follows and there's a Moon/Saturn square to contend with. That's how it may feel-like resisting or doing things because you're obligated and there's hardly any other choice. Feelings and intellect may conflict as will shoulds/want tos. Wear Yellow today.

Tuesday ~ Halloween under a Gemini Moon this year. Gemini is a shapeshifter and chameleon. Costume planning and tricks/treats feel like Gemini Moon. Venus and Uranus also put relationship dynamics and changes in the forefront. You may hear of status changes, breakups, or seemingly sudden engagements. Enjoy some time in altered personality states, mask or makeup wearing and socializing. Notice things that arrive in twos. Partner and team up for holiday celebrations. Today's color is Gold.

Wednesday ~ There are two lunar squares with Venus and Neptune. Dates, plans and expectations may not be met as you expect. Relationship disagreements or let downs could be one effect. Void Moon 8:36 am to 5:30 pm when the Moon enters Cancer, sign of home, family, roots, origins and emotional life. The Moon trine Saturn tonight brings up serious feelings, yet with a constructive type approach. Wera Blue.

Thursday ~ Cancer Moon aligns with the Sun, Jupiter and Mars. In a general way, this appears to be good and beneficial. A decision might come more easily, for example. The downside might be Mars aligned with the Moon which could lead to anger or aggression rising from emotional depths. Notice if you feel volatile or on the edge, and take care of yourself. Some may need a good cry or other emotional release. Today's color is Purple.

Friday ~ Cancer Moon with a variety of planetary aspects and action. Venus opposes Neptune for channeling energy into creativity and romance, loving energy. Yet also we may need to find that fine line between loving and enabling, denial and what's real. Forgiveness may be possible. There's a difference between forgiving and continuing allowing something that needs to change. Today is perfect for some deep inner awareness, reflection and action on personal and family priorities. Wear Light Blue.

Saturday ~ Saturn direct in Pisces at 3:03 am ET. The Moon moves to Leo at 3:21 am ET. Mercury opposes Uranus today for surprising news. If you're sharing something, consider not startling people and approach things sensitively. The Moon and Jupiter square and expansion questions come up, such as how or whether to move ahead with major plans, from school and education to special events. Today's color is Light Green.

Sunday ~ Venus aligns with Jupiter overnight. Count your blessings and gifts. This is loving, abundant, expansive energy and may benefit relationships. Virgo and Taurus, this is hosted in your signs. Void Moon 2:00 am to 2:06 am ET, worth noting maybe because it's such a short void Moon. If you happen to be awake for it, notice anything unusual...Aquarius Moon time follows and often encourages gatherings and co-working. The Moon squares planets in Taurus and Scorpio today, which may foreshadow the upcoming lunar eclipse. Be aware of sharp edges and extremes in yourself and others. Would it be worth smoothing something over? Can you do so without giving up your ideals and your individuality? Mercury enters Scorpio, and mysteries and investigations, secrets and intense conversations are highlighted for the month ahead. Mercury aligns with Saturn in Pisces and emotional discussions and decisions are two of the results. Today's events and interactions will likely leave long term impressions. Wear Blue.

Monday ~ Aquarius Moon squares Uranus. We may question or be questioned about our identity and ideals. There may be resistance to or uncertainty about how we appear, such as how much to stand out vs blend in. Radical changes may not be the route to take today. There's likely some sense of upheaval, non conformity, and sudden change is in the air. Though we must often respond to things, can this be done methodically and intentionally, and not overly impulsively? At 12:21 pm ET, the Sun moves to Scorpio. Born today, you are on the exact cusp. Days get noticeably darker now, even before the time change in early November. This affects our mind, our third eye, our sense of well being. Get any kind of light therapy as needed including infrared light, SAD light box, and sunlight in the mornings especially. Check in on anyone you're concerned about. Void Moon 3 pm on. Today's color is Turquoise.

Tuesday ~ Void Moon time ends at 4:33 am ET. These in between times can be likened to a waiting room or to losing sense of direction. If you feel like yesterday slipped by, that could be why. Sun and Saturn form a trine in Scorpio/Pisces overnight. Expressive and serious about it, this may come out in words and actions of an emotional nature. Do not dismiss your own or others' feelings. Listen and process what you're hearing. The Moon also meets Saturn. Saturn tells us to get a handle on things and not let them get out of control. Take things seriously and heed your own inner wisdom. Saturn is the planet of elders, experience and discretion. Note any of those words for clues to how this is coming up for you. The Moon harmonizes with the Sun, Mars and Mercury in Scorpio and with Jupiter in Taurus. It's a sign of making things happen, harmoniously and readily. Allow for the change, let something take its' course and grasp opportunities that feel right. Today's color is Indigo.

Wednesday ~ Pisces Moon opposite Venus, aligns with Uranus and meets Neptune today. I feel this could be highly creative. Immerse in your art form. There's also a love and relationship aspect. Romance is heightened. Emotional boundaries may dissolve or reduce. Opposites attract. Things like feelings may come up quite suddenly. Light Green is today's color.

Thursday ~ We are in the foreshadow of Saturday's Lunar Eclipse. Void Moon 2:39 am to 6:02 am ET. The Moon is in Aries now, and though there are no major aspects, there's a sense of action and maybe urgency with due dates approaching and perhaps a sense that something is happening though we're not sure quite what it is or what is implicated. Breathe well, practice patience and act with wisdom where actions are called for. Red is today's color. 

Friday ~ Aries Moon continues sort of 'quietly' with no planetary aspects. Notice if your inner fire feels balance, not too dim not too raging. Ths sense of steadiness, with just the right amount of energy,drive and push, can help us through challenging eclipse shifts. All shifts create stress, even the positive ones. Take good care of you. Be sensitive to others. Aries is the sign of 'me', so try not to be self centered and consider the difference between self centered and self aware, between self care and selfishness. Focus on how to share of yourself and your blessings while keeping healthy boundaries. Try some restorative type of yoga or guided meditation during this day and this season. It can really help short and long term, particularly if you're trying to change your inner narrative, hoping to release anxiety and lift yourself up. Today's color is Orange.

Saturday ~ Lunar Eclipse Full Moon in Taurus at 4:24 pm ET. This eclipse at 5 degrees Taurus occurs on a day of other oppositions. Mars and Mercury in Scorpio oppose Jupiter, magnifying disagreements and making honest communication VERY important. Secrets or hidden feelings will come to the surface. Anger could be an issue to contend with. One symbol for this eclipse is a bridge over a deep gorge. Ideally we can trust that bridge and cross over, making the necessary shift. There's also chances of trying to take shortcuts or not being able to trust what must support us and our journey. Feel into that and see where you land. Eclipse vibrations will be felt strongly for another month and vibrate for 6 months until our next pair of eclipses. Change is necessary. Is this your time? Matters of money, employment, land, real estate, root chakra, and emotional like are highlighted at this eclipse time. Today's color is Gold and also White.

TWO WEEKS OF FORECASTS HERE~

Sunday, Oct 8th ~ Venus, planet of love, harmony & romance, shifts to Virgo. This can make us feel particular with our partners or easily annoyed with things like messiness or unfulfilled promises. If you're a little bit disenchanted with a friend or partner, notice if you become overly critical or even passive agressive or sarcastic with them. Mercury aligns with the Moon this morning for heart centered conversations instead. Leo Moon will square Jupiter at 10:55 pm ET, challenging us to perform or be in public, maybe a presentation or stage moment is just ahead. Tonight, prepare. Venus enters Virgo at 9:11 pm ET, and Mars in Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn tonight. With all this planetary action, notice if your confidence feels shaken or wobbly and see if you can re-center yourself. Avoid letting negative thoughts or words sit too harshly or reoccur in your mind. Meditate on ways you feel strong. Today's color is Yellow.

Monday ~ The Moon and Sun harmonize in Leo/ Libra, both social signs. This may also have influenced Sunday night. Be ready for people today, for connection and communication, for presenting or performing and test taking of the verbal kind. Let your knowledge, confidence and real self shine. Avoid trying to be like someone else. The Moon and Uranus square and surprises may not go over well initially. Prepared is favored over last minute or winging it. Today's color is Purple. 

Tuesday ~ Venus opposes Saturn in the mutable signs. This may call for versatile and adaptable approaches. Leo Moon aligns with Mars inciting active participation and problem solving especially around equity and equality or justice. It may also put us in outgoing moods. Void Moon 5:37 am to 8:02 ET. For the rest of the day, Virgo Moon is about getting things done, including personal business with others, such as yielding and forgiving. Moon opposite Saturn, meeting Venus takes those adaptable vibes through the day and night. Avoid being too stubborn or stuck in one way of thinking. Brown is today's color. 

Wednesday ~ Virgo Moon aligns with Jupiter for flexible plans and approaches, for studying and feeling 'smarter', and for investigating educational and financial opportunities. Indigo Blue is our color, and Mars is on the threshold of Scorpio. Settle something reasonably and fairly before tomorrow.

Thursday ~ Mars in Scorpio is very activating, can bring up anger and possessiveness or envy. At 12:04 am, Mars enters a sign they co-rule with Pluto. This is the fiery side of emotional Scorpio. The Moon is in Virgo, seeking what can be done practically and maybe frugally. Yet, the planets engaging with the Moon appear to indicate distractions from what's real and true or sensible. And throw curve balls into plans or expectations. Void Moon 4:10 pm to 8:22 pm ET, and these hours may lead to missing appointments or misplacing items. Be extra aware of what  you're doing and saying. Seek balance. Today's color is Dark Red.

Friday ~ This weekend is the Solar Eclipse, and we may feel the rise of energy or a real dip today. Expect extremes. Mars aligns with Saturn to point out what needs serious attention. Do not diminish feelings, your own or other peoples'. Anger or resentment could rise up easily. On the other hand, it could come out as sadness. The Moon is in Libra. Buddy system. Today's color is Black.

Saturday ~ Solar Eclipse 1:55 pm ET, in Libra. Mercury is the planet most engaged near the eclipse, bringing communication, planning and thought processes into the equation. Avoid getting  overly caught up in your mind or anxiety. Do calming, grounding things, even cleaning the house or fixing and repairing things that can be done easily. With so much energy in air signs, it's useful to get in to earthier modes and keep your feet solidly grounded. Unless you're dancing, in which case, be light! Eclipses are like hitting the gas pedal. Things could happen fast during the next two to six weeks. This is the first of a pair of eclipses, taking us to the next levels, ready or not quite...Today's color is White.

Sunday, Oct 15th, 2023 ~ We're in the wake of the eclipse and it may feel very powerful or swirling. Add to that a shift to Scorpio Moon at 7:04 am ET and the Moon meets Mars, bringing strong feelings to the surface and instigating action to back those feelings. The Moon aligns with Saturn for serious priorities and with Venus for passion and sense of beauty. The urge to organize and make sense of things may be strong though it's not necessarily clear how everything will sort and land. Today's color is Indigo.

Monday ~Scorpio Moon opposes Jupiter and Uranus. Extremes and how to deal with them are the focus of the day. Everything may feel magnified and deeply emotional. One thing at a time. Stay personally centered and perhaps more inwardly focused. Wear Black.

Tuesday ~ Scorpio Moon aligns with Neptune for creativity and perhaps a little break from the intensity. Be cautious with substance use and being around people who 'check out' in this way. From 11:44 am ET, with an introverted, reflective trine to Pluto, the Moon is void of course until 3:36 pm ET. Sagittarius Moon squares Saturn and responsibilities and emotions should be faced, even the challenging ones. Today's color is Purple.

Wednesday ~ Sagittarius Moon squares Venus in Virgo. The things we're particular or sensitive about come up for reconciliation. This may be within oneself or with someone else. Notice if you're being too yielding or too unyielding. If you're in denial about a relationship issue, maybe it's a good time to let it come up and see if there's forgiving or some action to take in a positive way. Today's color is Orange.

Thursday ~ Sagittarius Moon aligns with the Sun & Mercury in Libra. It's a social and outgoing aspect. People may be talkative and bring up philosophical ideas. Travel and also educational pursuits are favored. Void Moon 3:02 to 9:55 pm ET. Capricorn Moon arrives then. Mercury and the Sun are about to meet in Libra and tonight there's likely alot of chatter. Topics of justice, equality and sharing may be the focus. Wear Gold.

Friday ~ The Sun meets Mercury at 1:38 am ET. The Moon in Capricorn aligns with Mars in Scoprio, Venus in Virgo and Jupiter in Taurus. All of this can be positive, though much of it could be highly charged with emotion and sense of urgency or pressure. Mercury and Pluto form a square at 8:51 pm ET, which indicates a need for meditation and reflection. Think before speaking and make sure you can support what you're proposing. Green is today's color.

Saturday ~  Capricorn Moon moves through some familiar monthly paces, aligning with Neptune, meeting Pluto, and trine to Uranus. The third one means things happen suddenly and readily, in different ways than expected. Steadiness will be appreciated. You might be able to get some practical and creative things done, yes both! The Sun squares both the Moon and Pluto today, for self inquiry, encouraging an objective view, and fair transactions. Balance the imbalanced. Indecisiveness is a quality of this evening and it's ok to sit on the fence sometimes. Sleep on it. Wear Black.
