This New Moon is a newsworthy Solar Eclipse at 2 degrees Sagittarius which comes on the heels of a fresh Mercury Retrograde (November 23 - December 13) which begins the night before.


Patience, patience, patience. Why? Because with a Mercury retrograde period and a solar eclipse occurring practically right on top of each other this week, you're going to need to take some long, deep breaths!
This solar eclipse and the following lunar eclipse of December 10 are best discussed through the Sagittarius/Gemini axis. Kabbalah teaches that the higher lesson of Sagittarius is to overcome the indecision of Gemini; in short, what it means is: to define your aims and accomplish them.

Typically, Mercury retrograde time periods are not good times to make headway, but, as combined with this eclipse cycle, the key phrase is - "Turning Point." Neither the eclipse nor retrograde are reasons to hold back. Some more important words are: justice, integrity, and truth.
Mars trine Pluto and the Sun trine Uranus in the dark moon of November 23rd provide comfort and assure us that the bold actions we take during this time will prove fruitful and supportive. And, Venus trine Jupiter on Sunday the 23rd also lends grace.

Sagittarius is about fusion without necessarily knowing how it happens. Dots get connected, and what you're aware of fuses into a focused intention. And it's about being loyal to your own sense of what's true. Out of the emotional depths of Scorpio comes direct, fast and possibly furious realizations. You won't want to miss anything the muse and spirit send your way!


Chaos and Stability

If there is a blessed unrest at the new moon, ther's also a grand trine in earth to ground new realizations. Find healing in a natutal place. See hoe you can keep your mind from being overcrowed.
