Cosmic Calendar for November 8th

As mentioned at the end of yesterday’s calendar entry, this day starts off with some extra oomph in the right direction as the Moon parallels Jupiter (1:39AM PST). Even though this lunar aspect won’t last a long time, it reinforces optimism as the day begins. Since the Moon in Aries opposes Saturn in Libra (10:11AM PST), the earlier lunar contact with buoyant Jupiter can help to keep you out of the doldrums. In addition, excitement builds around the time when the Sun makes a frictional, 135-degree link to Uranus (11:40AM PST). Uranus strong can equate with a rising tide of surprises and shock waves, but you may also make advances on the cutting edge of science and metaphysics. A Moon-Mars parallel (2:34PM PST) suggests a slow-down around that time-period in order that you avoid making rash acts that will boomerang against you. Another reason to slow your tempo today is that Venus and Mercury form abrasive, 45-degree ties to Saturn at 5:42PM PST and 7:11PM PST, respectively. Be more productive in arts, crafts and hobbies as the Sun in Scorpio forms a flowing trine to Ceres in Pisces (8:40PM PST). This aspect doubles as a catalyst to help you make sensible dietary and nutritional changes. Physical and emotional vitality is on the rise – courtesy of the Moon in Aries trine to Mars in Leo (9:47PM PST). However, this alignment also starts a void lunar cycle that lasts until 11:46PM PST when the Moon enters earthy Taurus. Gear up for tomorrow’s Neptune shift from reverse to direct in Aquarius as well as the upcoming Full Moon and Chiron shift from reverse to direct in Pisces on Thursday.
