Taurus Full Moon on November 3, 2017--A Matter of Perspective

When I'm pulling astrology charts I often think of the beginning of Charles Dicken's A Tale of Two Cities because I'm gazing at a tale of two realities. And when I gaze at the chart for the Taurus Full Moon that lands on November 3, 2017, I'm seeing two distinct perspectives. One is dark and dramatic and the other one revolves around self-care and compassion for others.

With recent events especially in the United States' media we see mostly darkness. And these events ignite the worst and best in people. Some people sit glued to their television and computer screen rehashing images and dialogue that does not serve them at all. It is the strong and courageous person who confronts those images, comes up with a way to help others and sets his or her plans in motion. People getting high of the drama and lamenting about other people suffering actually create more dramatic weather patterns and events.

And it's time to stop reacting and to start responding. If we find ourselves constantly reacting and even worse, reacting in predictable or prescribed ways, then we need to find out what is triggering us. And we need to find the original wound so that we can begin or continue with release work. Each  of us contributes to the cosmic fabric and like the metaphor of the butterfly across the world flapping its wings and sending a hurricane in motion, each of us sets events in motions by what we focus upon and how we verbalize our realities.

I'm not going to get into the Law of Attraction because only some of what is written about and promoted at workshops is true. We are a collective and what we do collectively holds more power than what we do as individuals. This is why getting stuck in a robotic mindsets or being swayed by the masses is dangerous. At the very least it leads to a witch hunt mentality and at its worse we see events (not of our liking) speeding up and growing in intensity. Our actions, thoughts, emotions, and words do shape the reality we see in the media (even if some of that seems like fake news).

So, the Scorpio Sun and the Taurus Moon in opposition (Full Moon) ask us to delve into our subconscious minds, look at our inhibitions, blocks, and entanglements to see how those contribute to world events. I know in the past people focused on their thoughts only creating their individual realities. And now, we are looking at how actions and thought patterns of the collective are shaping the bigger reality. Jupiter joins the Scorpio Sun (or is only 6 degrees away from the Full Moon transit) so Jupiter expands on the subconscious mind, its urges, impulses, shadows, and projections.

Not only that, we are hung up on death, birth, rebirth, taxes (who pays them and who doesn't and how taxes are spent), and transformation. We find ourselves walking through the tunnel of the Dark Night of the Soul--though some of us are reaching for the light and poised for ascension (Taurus Moon). And the Taurus Moon is the best of all the moons. But it will cause us to seek comfort in food, wine, and other pleasures, if we are not facing up to the wounds in our subconscious minds.

On the other hand, this is an excellent time for energy healing, psychological healing, shamanism, hospice work, transcending a fear of death, healing disease, especially disease rooted in ancestral DNA. And speaking of ancestral DNA, we will be focusing on that during this Full Moon and around it.

Now, I love this moon for manifestation purposes. However, if you have beliefs and patterns blocking the way, you won't manifest your dreams and you could end up experiencing nightmares that force you to deal with the underlying energies. And once you deal with these beliefs and patterns you will find your life really opening up. Prosperity, peace and love make their way to you and quickly. But first, do the work.

We have a Cardinal T-Cross with Venus, Uranus, and Pluto which has us going to battle over what we value versus what other people value. We might harbor resentment towards people with means. Or we might resent the homeless for showing us what we fear the most. Remember everyone is a mirror. So what is it that we don't like about them? Start from that point. And never assume that other people share your values. People often take this for granted then offend someone because that person does not share their values.

We see flowing aspects with Neptune and the Sun, Moon, and Jupiter. Mercury and Chiron are in flowing aspect (Water) and this also has us delving into old wounds but let's do more than talk about them. It's time to take action, even a baby step such as signing up with a therapist. And that goes well if you pursue it. Saturn and Uranus are still in flowing aspect (Fire Trine) so this gives us a boost of energy to build new structure, but only after we dismantle the old one.

We are entering a time of rebuilding (the Taurus Moon is a master builder). And for each of us this rebuilding shows up on different areas ranging from spiritual-psychological to building physical structure to replace the old that was swept away.
