Happy Halloween! Yesterday we began a new lunar month, one that will take us through the prism of Scorpio in the coming four weeks. And what do new moons do? They create a container of experience for us to live our lives through.

In astrology Saturn has a very specific function. As the regulator time, Saturn sets the pace of our growth as both adolescence and adults. Saturn makes us mature, even when we’re dragged kicking and screaming, into the next phase.

We’re in the last few days of the lunar cycle, a time that pulls us inward for quiet reflection. We sort, we feel, and we release. But with the Scorpio New Moon looming and Mars touching on Uranus, there may be an uneasy push to strike out in a new direction.

True, there’s a sweet little sextile between Venus and Jupiter today, a pairing that softens tensions and promotes common vision. (The two planets are in “mutual reception.”) But really the dominant energy all week is Mars and its upcoming square to Uranus.

Venus and Neptune square off today, an aspect that has a “all that glitters is not gold” reputation in astrology. Neptune can make anything alluring. And Venus, the epitome of charm, beauty, and style, has the magic touch with Neptune.

Just behind the Sun is Mercury, marking the final degree of Libra before slipping into Scorpio later today. If Mercury in Libra has been an exercise in tact and choosing our words with grace, then Mercury in Scorpio will trade civility for uncomfortable truths.

We’re in the last full day of Libra season, a time when naturally express ourselves through the language partnership and cooperation as well as beauty and charm. Tomorrow the Sun dips into Scorpio, a sign that reminds us that life is fleeting and all things die.

What’s the most shocking thing we can say? What have we been holding in that needs expression? With Mercury coming off its opposition to Uranus, we may have had an uncomfortable light bulb moment. Or, a realization that completely separates us from the past.

If Mars is passion, action, fire, and the spark of life itself, then its conjunction to Pluto today is a force of nature. Mars and Pluto bend. They pull, explode, reveal. They kill, they resurrect. They are a volcanic eruption. They are fire into stone.

After spending the last four weeks traveling through the dark waters of Scorpio, Venus is now in Sagittarius! Venus is the planet that reveals what we value, what we love, and how we relate to others. When she’s in Sag, we’re attracted to the exotic. We value exploration.

Whew! Yesterday’s Aries Full Moon was a doozy. It pressed buttons and hit on some touchy subject matter. In the end, the full moon pushed us to say “no” to something. Maybe it was a relationship or a level of behavior that had long since worn out its welcome.

Let’s talk about this Aries Full Moon that’s clocking in early on Sunday. My good friend, who is an Aries, was baffled that I wasn’t talking about it more. And I was like, dude, I’ve been laying out the whole story this week. Here’s your recap.
