Daily Astrological Forecast, November 1–4, 2024
Today’s pioneering numerology of 1 supports the energy of the Scorpio New Moon to favor beginning something. Transits spotlight emotions, opportunities, and courage to act for major change.
The Scorpio New Moon is exact at 5:47 am (8:47 ET). In this sign of intensity, it gives us nerve to act on our desire for renewal. It especially favors:
- Emotional healing
- Building intimacy
- Digging up secrets
- Reclaiming our power
- Getting out of a rut
An opposition between Moon’s corulers Mars and Pluto is the axis for a kite (grand trine plus opposition and two sextiles). The chart for this New Moon focuses its power. The red planet, in Cancer, urges us to push against the limitations of Pluto, in its last stand in Capricorn, to fight for what is close to heart and hearth, and for what we want to make grow.
Cancer relates to family and Capricorn to security, so the intense emotions of this lunation may spotlight secrets that emerge about family, or one’s nation. Days before the US presidential election, diverse groups will be impassioned and feeling like each of them is defending their homeland.
Mars is at the bottom of the kite, in a grand trine with mental Mercury and mystical Neptune. With these planets both in water signs, our minds and communications can be flooded with emotion, with compassion, and possibly, with confusion.
The sextiles in the kite show that there is potential for progress, if we can be attentive, avoid the potential for violent anger, and seek to recognize and act on opportunities. Neptune disposits (rules) this lunation, via Pluto in Capricorn, which in turn is ruled by Saturn in Pisces, itself ruled by Neptune, planet of manipulation, imagination, spirituality and light beings.
At 9-10 Scorpio, the Sabian symbol says:
A FELLOWSHIP SUPPER REUNITES OLD COMRADES… The overtones of human relationships based on a community of work or experiences… the bond that unites individuals who have participated in some common activity. The social feeling of communion, plus all that it engenders, arises after the act performed together. Activity is at the root of consciousness. Activity in common generates social consciousness and cultural patterns which become set in the form of institutions. A group-personality emerges, which displays characteristic features and gives birth to collective emotions and values… Wherever the symbol appears, it suggests the importance of establishing or strengthening links with those with whom one has shared, or can share, living experiences. The value of COMRADESHIP is emphasized.
Today, we may wish to seek out those who resonate with the changes we long for—whether these beings are humans, spirit guides, or angels.
Moon’s trine to Saturn, planet of stability, helps keep our feet on the ground and supports taking one constructive step at a time, even in the midst of confusion.
Affirmation: I do my best and leave the rest to Spirit, here and now.
Saturday, November 2
Still on the portal of yesterday’s lunation, Mercury the messenger harmonizes with Moon’s bold rulers, Mars and Scorpio; morning communications can bring change.
Today’s communications can take diverse forms: we can reach out to someone in a position to support our interests or cause, make a discreet inquiry, close a cycle, engage in honest dialogue, build an effective case, or achieve a lucrative negotiation or deal.
With assertive Mars in opposition to immovable Pluto, differences might also get heated. This is a day to choose what we fight for, how we fight, and where we fight. Mercury’s involvement spotlights the power of reason and words to direct these energies and avert physical and emotional harm. We’ll want to make the most of our mental resources and steer clear of unnecessary confrontation. With Mercury soon to enter shadow, if we can’t communicate harmoniously and successfully, we can at least set these exchanges in motion.
Morning is the best time for people connections, until 2:06 pm (5:06 ET), when Moon opposes rebel Uranus. We will feel like breaking free, and this influence really works best for independent activities involving creativity, especially writing and research, which go well all day.
Things soften a bit later, as at 5:06 pm (8:06 ET), Moon trines psychic Neptune. However, with the intense Mars-Pluto opposition, we want to keep a low profile in both social and interdimensional realms. Lighter practices like meditation, prayer, and calling on angels go better than channeling or psychic readings, which may open undesirable portals. And, we can participate in a compassionate cause at a distance.
With Scorpio’s passion and an opposition from lover Venus to expansive Jupiter, romance with a true love or old flame could go well, but save blind dates or bar hopping for another weekend. Something else to save for another day: Scorpio Moon can be good for surgery, but that’s completely off the table with the Mars-Pluto tension.
Later tonight the intensity is underscored, as at 9:40 pm (12:40 am ET) Moon trines Mars, going VOC on sextile to Pluto at 9:51 pm (12:51 am ET). At 10:19 pm (1:19 am ET), the atmosphere lightens as Luna enters jolly Sagittarius.
Affirmation: I call on the forces of love to pour into and through today’s aspects, lifting them up to their highest expression, here and now.
Sunday, November 3
Thanks to two major oppositions, passions are high. Hot Mars opposes powerful Pluto, and Venus, planet of love and values, opposes Jupiter, expanding good feelings. Romance, lust and business can be highly charged.
Moon in affable Sag favors socializing, enjoying sports, working for a cause and engaging in trade or something requiring strategy. Yet today, nothing is apt to be light or easy. Resist the impulse to escape for an idyllic weekend, and stick close to home—without drinking or fighting.
We can do beautiful work for a cause or campaign, although taking to the streets could be risky. Mercury will enter pre-retrograde shadow on Thursday, November 7, so we want to get new projects and communication moving before then.
Affirmation: Life evolves in me and through me, and life supports my progress, here and now.
Monday, November 4
Although we’re still within earshot of yesterday’s strong passions, it’s easier to channel them today. Sun trines Saturn the builder and Moon connects with benefics Venus and Jupiter.
Today’s numerology of 4 is ruled by Saturn and likes to work, helping us use Moon’s transits to Venus and Jupiter in a charming or lasting way.
Yesterday’s oppositions remain in orb, but waning and diffusing the intensity. We can focus our passion on something relational, financial, or on values we want to last.
Affirmation: I am an agent of positive change, and I act in that confidence, here and now.
