Cosmic Calendar for Sunday, November 20th

Last night – for several hours – the outer planet Uranus became a key planetary player in earthly lives. Now its Neptune’s turn to hog the limelight as this far-out celestial body in Aquarius receives a 90-degree square from the Sun in Scorpio (12:43PM PST). Don’t make the naive mistake in thinking that the only worry concerns 12:43PM PST. There is always a build-up of several hours (at least) before any solar aspect when the vibrations connected to both the Sun and whatever it is interacting with are becoming stronger and stronger. In addition after the alignment has occurred precisely, it isn’t gone, but remains influential – possibly for many hours or even a day or two. The Sun square to Neptune brings up mental clarity and emotional serenity issues. Unfortunately, it is usually the lack of mental clarity and emotional serenity that occurs under the square in question. Part of the problem here is that the Sun and Neptune are in the so-called fixed, power signs of the zodiac where there is a mighty reluctance to change, grow and adapt. Hopefully, just contemplating these concerns can bring you more into an internal state of peace and harmony – the higher goal of the Sun-Neptune face-off in the first place. Meditating to increase enlightenment is definitely a wise approach to working with these Sun-Neptune vibes. Exploring your multi-faceted talents in art, music, dance, poetry, film and photography are other ways to tap into the higher energy-field associated with Neptune. Be aware that a nearly 3-hour void lunar uncertainty zone happens from 2:23PM PST until 5:17PM PST when the Moon enters airy Libra. Thereafter, the cosmic emphasis shifts in the direction of improving the quality of your primary partnerships.
