Moon enters Taurus
Wednesday 09 November, 2:45am EST to Friday 11 November, 3:10pm EST
Opportunity is knocking at the collective’s door at this time of the month when our emotions enter reflection mode. When our Full Moon embarks in the practical and patience energies of Taurus -the sign that consciously aims for security- we are now ready to allow an enduring and resourceful spirit to guide our “digging up” of what is best to clear where the Bull fixes things within our lives. Fixed Earth is Taurus’s elemental influence, so look to this passage to allow feelings to uproot, and change the grounding force that may no longer be working optimally.

Emotions under Taurus must beware of dogged, materialistic, lethargic, and obstinate behaviors that may arise. When any possessive energies are around, it is easy to gravitate to unimaginative and reactionary tendencies. While a strong sense of values and patience mark any journey with The Bull; the cultivation of enterprise, adaptability, and vision are always wise to adhere to.

Full Moon, 10 November, 3:16pm EST, 18 degrees Taurus
This offering from Taurus brings forth deep, intuitive, and sensuous feelings as our Lunar Light takes a stance with The Bull. Be sure to check the house, in particular the 18-degree Taurus spot, in your natal birth chart to see where a release of energy is ideally meant to unfold. This is the area of life that requests the proper reflection in the next two weeks to follow. What you let go of within in this section of your Zodiac pie until the next New Moon and Solar Eclipse upon 24 November makes the necessary space for new things to come in the future.

For the Collective
This is the 2nd Full Moon that offers us release at the 18th degree, as the next 4 more to follow until we reach the Full Moon in Virgo in 2012, all will peak at the 18th degree of their sign. We touched upon last month how 18 represents conclusions and endings. Being in the know that Mars, The Finalizer, guides any 9 vibration, the gravitation to courage over conflict will allow successes to occur here. Looking to the 18’s ‘Spiritual – Material Conflict’ as the Chaldeans’ so deeply understood about this cipher, this series of Full Moon passages is sending the message home to humanity loud and perfectly clear that materialism is not to be adhered to. Being ultimately in touch with whatever form of spiritually serves you is how aggressive action can be avoided.

A valuable lesson here within Taurus unfolds by adhering to PATIENCE: I TAP IN AN ANCIENT PEACE PACE. Remember too, Jupiter is also in Taurus, but much earlier on wherever The Bull rests in your Zodiac Pie, currently retrograding at 03 degrees. While nowhere near a conjunction, certainly the jovial Philosopher still casts a happy tone to allow your releases to be fulfilled.

Lunar-O-Scope, Full Moon in Taurus, 10 November 2011
For the collective horoscope, again we offer some simple advice for every sign from the outer vantage point. Remember, if you know your Rising Sign (Ascendant), read that passage too, for it typically will apply to your personal charts’ advice. Keep in mind, it is full mathematical analysis of the individual birth chart that truly indicates how the current planetary energies are uniquely affecting you.

Aries: You’ll be in the mood to direct yourself to a change within your sense of values as you take stock of your personal possessions. How you earn your dollars may fluctuate. A worn-out sense of security is ready to release, so feel free to make positive choices here now- tossing out the unnecessary material in the home is ideal. An impulsive purchase is wise if it is at a bargain price- but make sure it serves a practical purpose in grounding your fire a bit.

Taurus: It’s your month steady Bull to release an old worn out mask you wear. Some tired and weary approaches wish for you to un-earthen your roots to them. We know you like slower changes, but right now, don’t resist the release of energy wishing to find you! Avoid surgery over these dates, and take time to focus upon you, as this is the perfect time to re-activate the self. The ways you take in those first impressions also ask you for your patience and reflection now.

Gemini: It may not seem logical for both sides of you, but it is time to unite the energies within those unseen places and deeper ideas in your life. The spiritual, subconscious realms, and the psychological make-ups of life call for you to quiet your chatty self, so you can relinquish what is necessary from the past. What value you’ll discover uniting within this inner security, and pay extra close attention to your dreams, they have important meaning to your waking world.

Cancer: Your house of friendships captures this lunar focus, so whatever may need to be cleared out, go with your gut here. Hopes and wishes you may have are equally in need of re-examination. If there is a group or cause you’ve been sensing no longer works -don’t remain in your shell- allow those claws to release their grip. Do accept that possible unexpected invitation to socialize, and grab on to the patience, contentment, and familiarity you’ll gain from attending.

Leo: Time to redefine what harvest, stability, and reward really mean to you within your career and public life. Completion is ready to emerge within that forest you reign so well Lion. Equally, this is a prominent time to reflect upon the promotion or start of a new business. A nice recognition can come your way if you’ve done your proper legwork to receive it. Reconsider a reformed view within your take on authority that you have not been responsible to up till now.

Virgo: Inspiration fuels where you reflect upon your philosophies and your beliefs. Feel that urge to take a trip Virgin? You may now reflect upon ones you’ve recently had, or how you can make plans for more perfect ones in the future. Reconsider ways to broaden your view of the world at large. As you equally revisit adventures that engage your expansion, renewed educational pursuits make the perfect space to serve your traveling and adventurous aims for the long-term.

Libra: While you always weigh the pros and cons, now these focus upon your securities and investments. Now is the ideal time to reflect upon future decisions to be made about any changes here. The doors are open to review the transformations that desire completion, as the feelings to embark upon rebirth strongly find you. With your innate beauty and charm, enjoy the passion in being friendly to those sexy feelings- just remember to be patient when taking action!

Scorpio: Your partnerships- romantic or business, are where your probing abilities research the truth of the matter now. You’ve been already wondering what should stay or go here, and now is the time to make the space that is required. The people you reflect upon over this waning period are of special importance to the successes of your future endeavors. You’ll find more mysteries will be unraveled, as your sense of security about those you are closest to gets a refresher.

Sagittarius: Aim your arrows towards your health Dear Archer, and feel the improvement! There’s a habit you should let go that will do wonders to bring in some renewed feelings of honesty for yourself. How you serve others has also been in the process of reworking itself, and unleashing a worn-out routine also brings plenty of benefit for your long-term service. Look to let go of old patterns where you are employed. Be extra cautious with pets and their whereabouts.

Capricorn: While you always enjoy an ambitious pursuit, your creative nature now desires your full attention for this request to release Old Goat. Perfection is never too far away, and this energy now watches over whatever your current project involves, asking that you reassess your inspired ideas. Playful feelings surround you, especially those involving children. “Brain children” or your offspring captivate your reflection. A renewed passion here awaits to take center-stage.

Aquarius: Ready to re-invent in the home Water Bearer? Reflecting upon improving this area of the life allows your individual way of doing things to flourish all the more later on. Family time is rewarding right now, as they can appreciate your innovative ideas for change, and may not look upon you so eccentrically. We know you possess a prophetic nature, but be on the look-out for those psychic and déjà vu experiences, as there are important messages you can tap into now.

Pisces: The waters your mentality and thinking swim in Dear Fishes now find some recycle time, as these are ready to absorb some review like a sponge. That short trip you recently went on lingers in the mind, and thoughts float off to one that could be even more satisfying! Your intuition takes a needed rest here reassessing the realms of your communications, and reveals what logically should not remain rooted in your life. Siblings or neighbors capture attention too.
