Our hearts and minds are open this morning as the Libra moon forms a helpful aspect to joyous Jupiter. You could be eager to connect on an intellectual and emotional level, but if those around you aren’t able to keep up conversationally, you might need to look for ways to expand your social circle.

Watch out for negative influences throughout the morning as Luna and Pluto engage in a harsh aspect. These vibes can bring out controlling or possessive behavior, so keep an eye out for such actions in you and others.

Luckily, when the moon and communicative Mercury form a cosmic alliance this afternoon, you should be able to talk through any issues that arise. Diplomacy will go a long way right now, so be sure you’re giving others the space to truly be heard.

Fences should be fully mended by the time the moon and Venus share a soft connection in the cosmos this afternoon. This energy is perfect for celebrating love in all its forms, so look for ways to connect with your nearest and dearest.

The vibe shifts significantly when the moon changes signs into mysterious Scorpio as the evening rolls in. This lunar placement brings intensity to the table over the next couple days, which could make or break your bonds.

We seem to at least feel as though we have a better overview today than we could understand yesterday. The Moon’s arrival in Scorpio late this afternoon (following a brief void-of-course period from 3:32 PM PDT until 5:53 PM PDT) sets up tomorrow’s Scorpio New Moon (2:14 PM PDT 12° Scorpio). The Sun is already nearly opposed to Uranus and the temptation to blame others for any restrictions is already beginning to suggest some impulsiveness and erratic behavior. Nonetheless, there is plenty of room to learn from any mistakes we make today, ahead of tomorrow’s shift in our focus.

2021 LUNAR INFORMATION

NOV 4: NEW MOON IN SCORPIO: Moon in Scorpio creates the need to delve into your feelings as deep as possible. You desire meaningful emotional exchanges now more than at any other time even if it is not easy and you are forced to change many things. Shallow relationships do not satisfy you, because they are not purifying enough.

NOV 11: FIRST QUARTER MOON IN AQUARIUS: Your relationship with your emotions might be more complicated, because Moon in Aquarius has a strong need for emotional freedom. However, when you are in a group of people, it is easier for you to understand your feelings and free yourself from negative emotions such as fear, anger and jealousy.

NOV 19: FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE IN TAURUS (BEAVER MOON/FROST MOON): Your safety depends on the need for stability, which is not easy to satisfy now. You have to learn to accept change as part of your life. The basic problem is finding your own self-respect in order to ensure that you do not mistakenly seek it in material things. When you accept yourself for who you are, it will become easier for you to find peace and tranquility in the outside world.

NOV 27: LAST QUARTER MOON IN VIRGO: Your feeling of safety is now related to order and clarity, even in emotions. You may have the need to organise everything chaotic and disorganized. Try being more tolerant and accept imperfections of life. It is better to trust life and let it run its own way, not everything must be according to our expectations.

DAILY ORACLE

When your heart is heavy and life seems to weigh you down, Sandpiper Spirit’s message is to lighten your burden by finding joy and humor in the everyday. Become like a playful child, filled with curiosity and wonder, and soon you will find you feel your own spirit lift. A few minutes or hours of fun-filled delight is exactly what you need now.
