The witches are done with your sh*t.
Soup's on!

Let's talk about the end of October, which is-- frankly-- a mystical light show. There is so much planetary interplay, patterning suggesting movement, growth, and change.

In the morning of Monday October 28th we have a healing trine with a very primally protective Mars, who may feel hypervigilant to protect their babies (babies can be anything they care about.) This Mars desires safety over anything else, because Cancer represents the womb of creation, and in order to create there needs to be a safe place. Magic starts in your foundation and your home. Pisces Neptune bestows a dilation and spiritual vibe to this healing; compassion, artistry, or divine experiences could bring a softness and safety that is helpful. 


Soon after Venus will square Saturn in Pisces. The real spiritual imperative, the real emotional current we are anchored to, will show us how our values and connections can slip away from us. There is an optimism in our relationships, finances, in what we value that may receive a wet blanket moment, or a frustrating situation requiring attention. This could be annoying, or it could feel like things get serious, or there’s rain on your parade.


As of today there is a lot of glistening aspect action going on. The Moon and Neptune will oppose each other while each being the rudder of a kite formation, one with a grand earth trine, the other with a grand water trine. There is healing and good real-world juju happening here. It seems like there’s a mixed bag of awesome and helpful; frustrating and explosive. 


  • Is anything confusing you about where to put your energy, and what you want or need?

  • What are you being show spiritually about your will and determination? Is there something you are protecting? Does it feel aligned with your creativity, family, or home?

  • What must you protect, and how are you protecting it?

  • What reality check is coming up around your relationships or bank account?

  • What are you being shown as it pertains to your values? Are you  working towards the right goals? 

  • What are you ready to create? Are you allowing your creativity to flow?


On October Wednesday October 30th we have the perfected opposition between Mercury and Uranus. This means we are likely going to be met with a record scratch, a new flash of insight that, like a bolt of lightning striking. There will be new information, a new situation, something could happen to bring the relationship to a greater freedom, or, perhaps you to revolution. This has a cognitive or conversational tone to it, and it may change the way you think.


  • Where are you feeling insecure and how is that affecting your behaviour with others?

  • What are you learning about your fixations and obsessions? Is anything starting to shift or transform in this regard?

  • Have you been in a long silence? Is it time to start talking, or moving on?

  • What do you want, and how are you finding it through understanding your emotions more?


On Thursday October 31st’s Samhain/ Halloween in the northern hemisphere, or Beltane in the southern hemisphere, we have Mercury trining Neptune for some more emotional healing. I think this one is interesting. There is a lot of water dropping right now; and a willingness, awareness, or ability to walk forward. There is something difficult that is ending, releasing, or saying goodbye, but somehow we are ready, or we know it’s right, even if we are scared. There is a part of us that we are ready to alchemize, transform. 


  • What are you wishing for? Are you ready to work for it?

  • Are you ready to leave behind the person you are today to become the person you want to be? What parts of you go and which ones stay?

  • This whole month has been a process of healing. What are you ready to completely let go of to let your kite fly higher?


This is the time of year when the veil is thinnest. This is a day that we see unconscious behaviour shine. This is when our shadows come out to play. There is going to be a complete transformation of something that ends and begins on  Friday November 1st-- when the New Moon perfects. We have this emptying out but also this clarity and focus.  With this Mars  and Pluto opposition really getting in our craw now; they are both rulers of this New Moon,--and for many other reasons-- there seems to be some relationship odds AND some helpful healing energy, compassion, and a theme of ascendance, growth, and being up above it. Today could feel like a sad ending, or a promising new beginning, like giving up or total relief. 


  • Can you feel something clean out or transform you?

  • What have you been focused on, and what is being asked of you?

  • What have you realized about your work on earth here lately? Do you feel like you have a mission? Do you feel up to the challenge?

  • Are you confused and frustrated about what's going on and unsure what is being asked of you?

  • Can you see where you have healed a lot this month? Does that land for you?


On Saturday, November 2nd we get some more 29 degree action as Mercury trines Mars and sextiling Pluto, this is all helpful energy and ease with what moves us, how we think and what must change and transform. There is primarily a water / emotional theme to this beneficial energy, except Pluto in the earth sign of Capricorn. All of these planets are sitting at 29 degrees so an urgency or crisis has been created to further the aims of the sign. There will be feelings. There may be tears. But there will be healing also; because there is also, same day, a sextile with Jupiter and Chiron- the wounded healer. There is more helpful energy, this time between our beliefs and and our identity wound. Perhaps something is making sense, or we find it easier to give because we have grown. 


Same day, Mercury enters Sagittarius, where the mind is searching for the biggest concepts, the biggest Truth. There is an optimism and excitement, a big movement emerging from inside. The ideas, and whatever we have learned seems to be calling us to more, so as the pressure of Mars versus Pluto mounts, we can see that the landscape is different, and that there is some kind of hope on the horizon. Whatever that means to you. No matter how bad it feels, there’s something really good about it.


  • What urgent impulse is asking you to think and act, and what is that teaching you about your desires, your role in humanity, and the things that your mind is focused on?

  • What have you learned most about relationships lately? What about yourself?

  • How are you moving yourself through these huge changes? Are you able to see the changes that are happening or is it confusing energy?

  • What feels fraught, and what feels solid right now?

  • What are optimistic about. What is motivating you forward?


I leave you on that note. I’d love to know what you think of my videos, or my writing, what you’d like to see more of, and if you have any questions on what any of this means. I’m here to serve you. Don’t be  stranger!
