Astro Daily: November 16, 2020

Fresh off a Scorpio New Moon, we step into a week that puts a focus on intimacy, power, and rebirth. Scorpio energy pushes buttons, applying necessary emotional pressure so that we grow, transform. With Mars now direct, we’re also ready to move forward.

That said, we’re feeling friction. Mars is in a tight spot in the sky, picking up on energies of Pluto, Jupiter, and Saturn in Capricorn. We’re moving forward, but it may also feel like we’re pushing up hill or pushing against resistance. Again, Scorpio is a necessary alchemy. We need this force so that denser, darker energies — suffering, anger, rage — to transmute into light.

The Moon’s also in Sagittarius, which means that we’re meditating on matters of truth and meaning today. Sagittarius is the sign of conviction, it stands up for what it believes in or it shares its faith with others. Since the South Node of the Moon is in Sagittarius, we have to make sure that we’re not getting in the trap that our truth is the only truth.

Lastly, Venus is also in a tight spot today, making squares to Jupiter and Pluto. Relationships have to evolve. Look at what’s getting in the way, even if it reflects uncomfortably back on you.

I’ll be discussing this and more in my weekly look at the astrology on Facebook Live, today, November 16. You can watch the replay on YouTube, IGTV, or listen on Spotify.
