New Moon on Monday Astrology

NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY

By Adeline Leigh

Things are getting quieter, but not necessarily slowing down.  Mercury’s hookup with Saturn midweek puts a limit on how much we’re talking – but that won’t make anybody’s situation any less intense.  Thursday and Friday are great days for reverie and romance, as long as you remember that the dreaminess can’t last forever.  Lots of people have their heads all up in the clouds this week, with Venus enabling Neptune on her way out of Libra.  Once she gets to Scorpio late Saturday night, we’ll all be looking past the superficial.  Last time Venus was in Scorpio she went retrograde and stayed there for almost six weeks.  This was back in late October and early November of 2010.  Look back to what was going on for you (especially with love and money stuff) back in those days and see if any echoes are starting to pop up.  Next week:  the Full Moon in Aries.

ARIES 

What did you learn about relationships in September?  Venus leaves Libra, your opposite sign, on Saturday.  Watch out for groping for one last chance with someone who’s way more like a fantasy.  That’s not to say you shouldn’t be aiming high, just remember that this time around it’s way more about you.  This is a week where you can find plenty of space to step back and think about where you want to be in your upcoming chapter.  Next week’s Full Moon in your sign is the perfect time to absolutely go for it. 

TAURUS  

Pay attention to your dreams this week, but don’t get too lost in them.  You’re entering a season that’s a lot about coming to terms with your love life.  New revelations about what you really want and your method for getting it are coming out of the woodwork all over the place.  Think especially about how certain close relationships have changed for you since last year at this time.  You’re about to realize how adjusting your behavior in some very simple ways can get you a lot more of what you’re looking for. 

GEMINI 

You’ve been working to get unstuck.  This week, the only thing trapping you is your own perspective.  Mercury’s hookup with stern Saturn could have you feeling pessimistic, but as always, the antidote to Saturn is as simple as taking some responsibility.  Doing the right thing might not offer immediate gratification in the material sense, but it will bring enormous improvements to your attitude.  The more you own up, the farther ahead you’ll feel, and that will be bringing the good vibes back.  Next week:  mega-inspiration and the end to any writer’s block. 

CANCER 

Wait til midweek to really get moving. You’re either busy recruiting people to be on your team, or you’re just plain being cranky.  There’s also the possibility of trying to do both at once.  Remember, right now is way more about moderation and balance than trying to do it all. You get your groove back by Wednesday and once again be leading everybody in the right direction.  Venus moves into a fellow Water sign Saturday night, enabling you to push your pretty side.  Things in the romance department are about to start looking way, way up. 

LEO 

Get yourself together.  It’s good organization weather - everything from closets to cupboards to files to facts.  You’ve got some busy days ahead, so it’s good to be creating some new space and systems.  Step back and get ready for the next chapter - the more prepared you are, the more you’ll be able to accomplish. Use the weekend to show off any progress you’ve made.  Consider it the dress rehearsal for next week’s Full Moon in Aries, a fellow fire sign.  By then you’ll be happily basking in the spotlight.  

VIRGO 

Now’s the time to tidy up loose ends – but it’s not so great for launching anything new.   Mercury’s run in with strict Saturn on Thursday afternoon sparks a four-day stretch of feeling a little bit stuttered or even closed off.  Don’t feel guilty if you need to take some time out for yourself.  You’ll actually be able to use that space to check a hundred things off of your to-do list.  It’s like Spring Cleaning in October.  As more planets enter Scorpio, a friendly water sign, you’ll start feeling that much more confident about the base you’ve built.  

LIBRA

You’re in for a week full of the good stuff – watch for plenty of spontaneous celebrations between now and next Tuesday’s Full Moon.  It’s the perfect way to celebrate your season, just make sure to remember all that you’re trying to accomplish for yourself.  Don’t take anything as seriously as you’re taking your own goals right now.  Your Venus ruler moving into Scorpio at the end of the week means you’ll be raising your standards quite a bit in the coming days. You’ll also be pulling up some of your very deepest resources in order to give something back.     

SCORPIO 

Pop quiz.  The people who really count are starting to take notice - are you ready for all the attention?  Venus enters your sign on Saturday night:  get ready for a season where absolutely everybody is looking your way.  This is especially true in day-to-day situations like where you work or the grocery store.  You’re about to see how everything is connected – from forged friendships to the relationships you’re trying to build for yourself. It’s not so much about an easy windfall as it is about creating a very strong and stable new support system. 

SAGITTARIUS  

Be on the lookout.  You’ve got some big expectations and this week, if you keep your eyes open, you’re liable to stumble up on the very opportunities that help you find them.  As stifled as you might be feeling, Mars in a fellow fire sign is still enabling you to get plenty of stuff done, if you put your mind to it.  Work it.  Someone or something very crushworthy is about to introduce themselves into your world if they haven’t already.  Watch for the situation to come to surprising heights as soon as next week 

CAPRICORN 

Here’s where you get rewarded for the work you’ve been doing on your relationships.  You feel like you get it more than every before, and that’s making things run smoothly for you as well as everybody else.  If you’re still looking for the negative aspects, or nit-picking about things that don’t matter much in the long run, you’re focusing too much on your pessimistic side.  Change your perspective and you’ll soon see that these challenges are helping you be the very best you can be. Monday and Tuesday are perfect for asking for whatever you need.  

AQUARIUS

You’re either expanding your horizons, or you’re daydreaming about it.  Take advantage of the ideas you’re coming up with this week.  At the very least, write them down to keep track – but even better start taking some steps towards manifesting them.  The more you action you take right now, the harder it will be to stop you from moving.  Not to say you should be impulsive.  You’re in a place right now where you’re able to use your imagination and your intelligence to create things that have perfect balance between the best of both worlds. 

PISCES 

Read for last week.  Venus moving into a fellow water sign on Saturday night will definitely amp up the possibility of making a certain something start to happen – just make sure that this person (or situation) isn’t just trying to flatter you in all the right ways.  In other words, watch out for starfuckers and parasites.  Remember all the work you’ve been doing to push yourself forward.  You deserve the rewards.  Even more, you deserve the right person to share it with.  Saturday is the perfect day for asking for whatever it is you’re looking for.
