True Wealth

Once I was younger, my household had been pretty poor. However every summer time, my mom would scratch collectively some cash to take us on a highway journey to go to one of many nationwide parks. “We personal this,” Mother would remind us, gesturing towards some ravishing pure surprise. One cause I assist the Nationwide Park Basis to at the present time is that so long as we had been visiting one among these parks, I by no means felt poor.

The curious Gemini Full Moon (Nov. 27, 2023, 1:16 am PST, 4º51’ Gemini) opposes the Solar and Mars in adventurous, outdoorsy Sagittarius, with all three sq. Saturn in Pisces.

Squares power us to reconcile totally different sides of our nature. When it goes up towards Neptune, Mercury fights towards fog and confusion – and alongside the way in which, learns to articulate Neptune’s poetry and sensitivity.

As Mercury squares Neptune this week (Nov. 27, 2023, 5:28 am PST), do your half to provide Neptune a voice. Sing. Create artwork. Make magnificence. Take heed to those that are hurting. It’s a fast side for many of us, not more than a few days; however for individuals who are born with it, it’s a life’s work.

Jonny stopped by an property sale down the block that he stated was not like something he’d ever seen. Unassuming from the surface, the 3500-square-foot home was packed, flooring to rafter, with stuff of each description. Constructing supplies and instruments lay cheek-to-jowl with furnishings, clothes, and a stunning wealth of lightbulbs. Fascinated by the sheer breadth of choices, he browsed for almost an hour earlier than in the end coming dwelling empty-handed. “All of it appeared helpful, however I couldn’t use it,” he stated.

That sounds quite a bit just like the Moon’s South Node. It’s a storehouse of useful expertise and information that we’ve collected, that are solely actually helpful if we use them to pursue the North Node path to development.

When planets transit over this level, we get a chance to top off on a few of that wealth.

Capricorn will at all times discover a means; even when it lacks the best instruments or components, it’s at all times squirreled one thing away that may get the job completed.

Approaching the heels of Mercury’s jubilant stomp by way of boisterous Sagittarius, Mercury’s Capricorn season is rather more subdued. Mercury in Capricorn usually dislikes small discuss and prefers to talk solely when there’s one thing necessary to say. It’s a serious-minded Mercury, wonderful for creating one thing lasting of these Mercury in Sagittarius concepts.

The more durable she tries to bend him to her will, revealing glimpses of mood and steely resolve beneath the cotton-candy façade, the extra amused he turns into. What she doesn’t understand is that he’s already fallen for the true girl beneath the regal exterior.

As Venus squares Pluto (Dec. 3, 2023, 5:29 am PST), the query is, what am I price? In case you’ve fallen into the behavior of relying in your previous accomplishments, social connections, standing, or attractiveness, this side can summon an individual or state of affairs that calls you out on it.
