Planetary gearshifting, part two
This was part one.
From AstroGraph's November forecast:
"Mars is still retrograde from last month, for the entirety of November and on into December as well, making it difficult to go forward with our planned activities, but being great for internal dialogue with ourselves and reflecting on the quality of our assertive energy...
"What might this retrograde Mars for the next month and a half signify? Mars normally represents our outgoing side, the servant of our life purpose, our ability to 'get things done' in this world. With this planet retrograde, we become more introspective, getting ourselves squared away regarding inner rather than outer priorities. This internal stance is intensified this month, because at the time of the New Moon [on Nov. 1/2] that planet also began to square Neptune, symbolic of cosmic mystery beyond conscious ken.
"Meanwhile, Mercury turns retrograde itself on the 13th of November. Mercury Retrograde is not only famous for mechanical and communication breakdowns, but is also great for revisiting old patterns and reflecting on where life is taking us this time around.
"Mercury remains retrograde into December, turning direct on December 3rd. Mercury leaves its Retrograde Shadow on December 21st, just in time for the Winter Solstice. The Mercury retrograde period of time is not the time to move forward with new initiatives, but is an excellent time for reviewing, revisioning and renewing our lives.
"Thus, the second half of the month is especially difficult in terms of moving forward, but may be rich in revelation if we are willing to look deeply enough into our own motivation and that of others... And better knowledge of our internal workings can only help in our struggle toward greater and greater awareness.
"It is said that 'to know all is to forgive all,' and that sense of surrender may become an important component of our life lessons during this month. The lessons that we are likely to absorb during this monthly cycle have a large spiritual factor, since Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are all involved. There is, in fact, a Grand Cross forming this month and in December between Neptune in Aquarius, Saturn opposite in Leo, retrograde Mars in Taurus, and Jupiter in Scorpio*.
"This volatile combination of planets suggests a transformation in our understanding of where we are headed with our lives at this time, based in part on activities being difficult to for us accomplish. If we silently observe what is going on inside of us at this time, then we may benefit long-term from the increase in perspective.
* An article about Jupiter's transit through Scorpio appears on Carolyn Brent's Shamanic Astrology website. An excerpt follows:
"Jupiter’s move into Scorpio on Oct 25, 2005 expands all shamanic themes of Death, Rebirth, Regeneration, Right Use of Will, and Edgewalking. We are being invited to consciously walk the edges of what is dying and what is being birthed [within and outside of us] with opportunities for willfully creating a new paradigm that is aligned with Divine Love and Divine Will.
"Conscious Edgewalking occurs when we seek out the edges of contemporary beliefs and existing paradigms, choosing to move beyond them, exploring and expanding into new, passionately alive territory. Conscious Edgewalking requires willingness to walk the edges of old and new ways, bridging what has been with what is emerging, allowing death to embrace what is ready to die, creating space for new ideas, new ways, and new experiences to birth.
"As Jupiter travels through the Scorpio Realm over the next 13 months, this will be an opportune time to give ourselves permission to explore and accept our feelings in ways that are safe and healthy, while also supporting ecstatic growth. Finding safe, healthy ways to clear the Will and all of the emotional trauma it has been holding is often hugely overwhelming, and it can greatly help to find skilled assistance.
"Any process work that provides a safe space for getting in touch with our deeper feelings -- such as breathwork, body-oriented counseling, shamanic journeying, and whole-being integration work -- can be powerfully supportive during this next year."
