New Moon on Monday Astrology

NEW MOON ON MONDAY ASTROLOGY

By Adeline Leigh

GENERAL FORECAST:

And… Here’s where everything really speeds up.  Get ready for the week that just keeps going and going.  Stuff gets started tomorrow morning with the Sun’s move into Sagittarius.  Venus and Mercury have already been in the mutable fire sign for the past couple of weeks, but this marks the true beginning of Sagittarius season.  The Sun will make an immediate trine to the planet Uranus in Aries (the first of the fire signs) overnight Tuesday to Wednesday, just hours before another trine between the planets Mars and Pluto.  That’s weather that can spell absolutely anything, especially when you throw in Mercury’s turn to Retrograde which happens late Wednesday night.  Stay aware of your surroundings, things could get weird. 

Thanksgiving night brings the New Moon in Sagittarius, and a Solar Eclipse.  Eclipses are turning points, and they always come in pairs.  Eclipse weather tends to feel super deep and at the same time so far away.  You can tell something is happening, but you can’t yet quite see what it is or how it might shape up.  Eclipses tend to color the mood of the weeks before and after they occur – get ready to be feeling it until the end of the year:  the Lunar Eclipse happens December 18 during the Full Moon in Gemini.

ARIES 

Read for last week and keep your eyes on the prize.  Thanksgiving night’s New Moon in a fellow fire sign is lighting up what you’re trying to accomplish, and your Mars ruler’s holdup in Virgo is making sure you mind the details on the way. The more you can access your serious side in the next few months, the farther ahead you’re about to get.  This is the time to sit down and create some very tangible goals for yourself.  Watch for a chance to prove what you’re getting started as soon as next weekend. 

TAURUS 

These days are bringing big changes, and the all adjustments that go along with them.  Remember you’re going forward, and that it’s happening fast.  Things really get moving this weekend, when your Venus ruler moves into Capricorn, a fellow Earth sign.  Watch for what you’ve been feeling to open up in ways you absolutely haven’t been expecting.  This is the good stuff, even if it might not be the easiest.  Emotions (and/or desires) will be getting more and more intense until Venus hooks up with Pluto at the end of next week.  Don’t forget to breathe. 

GEMINI 

Mercury, the planet that rules your sign, goes retrograde at least three times every year.  This year, it’s choosing to do so at the height of holiday shopping and travel. This could be wreaking havoc on all sorts of people’s plans, but chances are it will be making things very interesting for you.  Pay close attention to what’s developing with this week’s New Moon/Eclipse in Sagittarius, your opposite sign. Two weeks from now,  a Lunar Eclipse during the Full Moon in Gemini will be showing you the big results to any intentions you’re making right now.  

CANCER 

Watch out for the unpredictable, and remember you’re completely prepared.  You’ve had more unexpected detours than not for a while now.  This has sometimes led to moodiness, but even more importantly, it’s put you in a place where you’re completely aware of your own authority. Watch for a situation this week that enables you to prove that to absolutely everyone, especially anybody who might have been thinking otherwise.  Know how much power you actually have, and you’ll have no trouble finding it.  Use Thursday’s Eclipse to celebrate, and plan on slowing things down for the weekend. 

LEO 

It’s time to start putting yourself out there.  The New Moon in a fellow fire sign Thanksgiving night is enabling you to access your very most adventurous side and start acting on things you’ve been dreaming up forever.  You’re in for a chapter that’s all about taking ownership of the qualities about yourself that don’t quite fit the mold.  It’s going to be a challenging process, but also beyond worth it.  This is a good time to practice using what really makes you different with the closest people in your world.  

VIRGO 

Nothing’s making sense. Your best tactic right now is not trying to force it to.  With Mars freshly in your sign for an eight-month stay, you’re feeling urges and impulse and energy.  Keeping your feet on the ground is what will yield the best results.  Yes, you have a million places to go, but right now you’re only in the planning stages.  Absolutely keep your high expectations, but remember your patience and do the careful work.  Your Mercury ruler’s about face the day before Thanksgiving puts you absolutely in the mood for going over details. 

LIBRA 

Now’s when things start moving so fast, you’re almost afraid you can’t catch up.  Luckily for everyone involved, we all know that’ll never be the case.  The New Moon Eclipse in a friendly fire sign helps you see possibilities like you haven’t in ages and even better, you’ve got all the gumption in the world to pursue them.  Venus moves into Capricorn early Saturday morning.  The next phase is all about shaping your ambitious side.  You’re about to find plenty of ways you can really put it to use.   

SCORPIO 

Energy overload. The action between Mars and your Pluto Ruler is making you extra restless and ready for something to happen. It’s important to know that things are actually totally happening, just in an underground kind of way.  The good news is, that’s totally what you’re used to.  Use your gumption to get as many mundane tasks taken care of before Mercury turns retrograde and then start getting to the bottom of the mystery.  You’ll be finding all the clues you need in the meantime and actually quite enjoying that process. 

SAGITTARIUS  

Happy Birthday! This year, absolutely everything is on your side. You know this, but you’re having trouble finding a grounded focus.  Mercury turning retrograde absolutely won’t be making that easier, but it will have some absolutely epic results.  You’re about to remember a million things that help you see exactly where you’re going, and even better, how it’s more than you’ve ever expected for yourself. Any forward steps you make this week will yield immediate results. The New Moon Eclipse happens Thanksgiving night in your sign.  Get ready to see some old dreams come true. 

CAPRICORN 

Wait for the final results, there’s still a lot brewing beneath the surface.  A friendly connection between Mars in Virgo and Pluto in your sign brings you a further push to keep moving.  Check as much as you can off of your to-do list before Thursday’s New Moon.  You’ll be glad you did.  Things are about to get fairly distracting in the very best of ways once Venus enters your sign on Saturday night.  If you’ve been waiting to make some moves, this weekend is absolutely perfect for that.   

AQUARIUS 

There’s plenty on your side right now.  Use every opportunity you to make fresh impressions, random friends, and brand new starts.  Beginning with this Thanksgiving’s New Moon Eclipse in friendly Sagittarius, you enter a lucky streak that’s all about firing up your next era in the best of ways.  Even if you’re not sure how it’s supposed to look a year from now, it’s important to keep up with the things that are really going right, they’re leading to very friendly places.  By the time the weekend’s over, you’ll be ready to do whatever it takes. 

PISCES 

Don’t worry so much.  You’ll be in full swing way sooner than you realize and any insecurity you’re going through could very well be coming more from the people around you.  Watch out especially for feeling stymied or trapped.  You’re in the middle of a period that’s a lot about regrouping – taking how things have shaped up in your current circumstances and thereby adjusting your plans.  Taking some time out to do that before Mercury’s retrograde could be exactly the thing that helps you free up your mind.
