💫 Death is the Gate of Life

Much like the Celtic Samhain, the annual Mexican celebration, Dia De Los Muertos, is also a time families gather to honor their dearly departed. 

Except, unlike Samhain, where it was believed the deceased returned to dine in the home, Mexicans believe the souls of the dead can return to visit in homes, businesses and cemeteries.

💫The depth of mystery compels us to dive beneath the superficial. 

Late morning thru early afternoon, the Moon in Pisces conjunct Neptune Rx before entering Aries to sextile Uranus Rx in Gemini sextile Pluto Rx in Aquarius in succession.  We may have trouble maintaining empathic boundaries regarding the energy of others; thus, the line between what's ours and theirs can become blurred, creating difficulties in communicating feelings. 

Eschew addictive substances and behavior during this time and focus on something inspiring. 

Focusing on creativity is a positive alternative and fuels new perspectives that stimulate the imagination. Whatever we choose to experience, it will be on a deeper level than superficial. 

We may be pulled into the depth of something mysterious or feel compelled to study subjects such as psychology, astrology, or the supernatural. Avoid compulsive behavior and single-mindedness at this time. 

Early evening Venus in Libra square Jupiter in Cancer. This is one of the less challenging squares; therefore, as long as our obligations are met, it's a good time to pursue what we enjoy alone or with the company of those we relate to on a personal level. Investments are favored but avoid overspending, particularly on things that are unneeded.

💫 It's important not to view ourselves as the "be-all" for others just because we're in a position to assist. 

Early morning, Venus in Libra inconjunct Saturn Rx in Pisces, potentially emphasizing a "Monday Morning" mood; however, a simple alteration of perspective and focus on something beautiful, such as having the privilege of waking, one that many didn't get to experience this morning. Challenge yourself to make lemonade out of lemons this morning. 

Tonight, Mars in Scorpio trine Neptune Rx in Pisces. A focus on serving others serves us best and increases our spiritual desire to seek connection. This transit tames Mars' physical aggression by transforming it into one of intuitive empathy aligned with the emotions of others. It's important not to view ourselves as the "be-all" for others just because we're in a position to assist.

💫 Liberation is achieved through small steps even if we feel we're drowning. 

Shortly after noon and throughout the remainder of the day, Mars in Sagittarius opposite Uranus Rx in Gemini, 00°08'. This opposition will remain partile (exact degree) until tomorrow afternoon / early evening when Mars enters 01° Sagittarius and will be highly emphasized during the Full Supermoon in intense Taurus tomorrow morning. 

Utilizing control of our reactions during this aspect is vital.  

Repressed emotions are likely to bubble to the surface, especially if we've not used our voice or maintained boundaries. Playing small to keep the peace always demands a later price. 

If at all possible, it's important not to eschew obligations today despite irritability. However, if we feel we cannot control our emotional outbursts, it may be best to take a day off from others. 

We can express our feelings calmly yet firmly through awareness. We may receive pushback that triggers our defenses. If we can find a quiet place to breath and recoup it will help us navigate this energy. Harsh or impulsive actions will not serve anyone, especially ourselves. On the contrary, they'll only make things worse. 

Liberation is achieved through small steps even if we feel we're drowning. Small step. Hold space. Small step. . .

💫Expectations not only provide disappointment but distraction and missed opportunities. 

Midmorning, Mars in Sagittarius sextile Pluto Rx in Aquarius followed closely by

Venus in Libra inconjunct Neptune in Pisces. If we have any doubt about which direction we want to go, self-evaluation at this time can provide sharp clarity. 

Once surety is acquired, a course-correction may be required to move ahead, which proves highly successful in the long run. Trust the process on this. 

Guard against expecting too much of others, as they could lead to disappointments, and take care not to fall into a day-dreamy state and miss an opportunity for growth.

💫Most fear the very change that takes an intimate relationship to the next level. 

Midmorning the Moon in Gemini inconjunct the Sun in Scorpio, requiring a perspective adjustment which in turn can balance our emotions. Consider a different viewpoint if something is upsetting you. Try walking in another's shoes. 

Early afternoon the Sun conjunct Lilith Rx in Scorpio in the 11th. There may be circumstances beyond our control this afternoon.  Or we may feel exposed and vulnerable. 

The important thing here is not to cover ourselves with a fig leaf but stand in the light of our dreams, goals, and wishes so that they may be amplified. 

Late tonight, Venus in Scorpio square Pluto Rx in Aquarius. Potential conflict in a relationship. This is an opportunity to dive deep into a core issue of change if we maintain emotional balance and eschew defensiveness. 

While most fear change, particularly in an intimate relationship, it's the very thing that can take the partnership into the next level. 

Surrender to the changes and see where the current takes you.
