This week’s headline items<\/strong>: Tuesday is not only the time to start taking actions on your New Moon intentions, but the Mercury station finally ends! The Sun changes signs from Libra to Scorpio on Thursday evening; the first Quarter Moon in Capricorn becomes exact on Friday late morning; the Pluto station ends on Saturday.<\/p>\nI should also note that Daylight Savings Time ends in Europe and Great Britain early Sunday morning,<\/p>\n
There will be three Moon VoC<\/a> phases this week: Tuesday late evening (for a little over 3 hours), Thursday night\/Friday very early morning (almost 8 hours), and Saturday early evening (almost 23.5 hours).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Countdown!<\/strong> Only 7 more days to go!<\/em> I am offering a substantial discount<\/strong> for a limited number of 3-session Coaching-Healing Packages<\/em>\u00a0until Oct. 25th at midnight EDT.<\/strong><\/p>\n I want to invite anyone — who needs emotional, spiritual, <\/strong>or mental support<\/strong> right now — one more time to do some Coaching-Healing sessions<\/strong> with me. They are very powerful and very gentle at the same time, as they allow you to let go of any stress or uncomfortable feelings, and provide a chance to reconnect with the inner peace and calm that is always available to you underneath all of the turmoil or stress.<\/p>\n The regular price for three sessions<\/em> would come to $471.00, but until Sunday at midnight EDT<\/strong>, I will offer three<\/strong> of these packages for only $387 — <\/em>that’s only $129 per session instead of<\/em> $157.00!<\/p>\n And as a Bonus gift<\/strong>, I will also include one of my 90+ min. webinars for FREE! For more info about my webinars, click here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n If this is a gift you want to give to yourself<\/strong>, please email me right away: sonja@AstrologerCoach.com<\/a><\/p>\n Here are some testimonials from people who have done Coaching-Healing sessions with me: “I can’t thank you enough for your support and guidance!!! I feel liberated in many ways and want to give YOU the credit for this newly found sense of ease, and power (I feel that so much energy is now available to me!)”<\/em> — A. M.<\/p>\n Again, if this is for you<\/strong>, email me right away: sonja@AstrologerCoach.com.<\/a> The first three people to reach out to me will get the discount and<\/em> the Bonus gift!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Monday <\/strong>is a big day (astrologically speaking): the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking\u00a0Sagittarius<\/strong><\/em> all day<\/strong>. Where it will journey until Wednesday very early morning<\/strong>. We’re strongly motivated to explore and learn. We’re\u00a0not likely to be big fans of routine — diversity and new adventures work best at this time — we’re also physically restless and need to burn that off with activity and physical exercise.<\/p>\n We tend to feel more open, optimistic and inspired — but we also have a high degree of independence, which means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, than take orders.\u00a0Inspiring others could come easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us, once they see what we see.<\/p>\n As best as you can, speak your truth without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you. Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.<\/p>\n Monday very early morning<\/strong>, a challenging Mars\/Jupiter aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 1:38am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Oct. 11th on, it will remain strong until next week, Monday evening<\/strong> (Oct. 26th). This aspect is an opportunity to grow by stretching between two poles:<\/p>\n On the one hand, we want to move fast and follow our personal passions; on the other hand, we also want to take a look at the longer game for society and at our limited beliefs around worldly achievements\u00a0 — understanding our long-term strategies before we make a move.<\/p>\n Here’s the question:<\/strong> Do these desires have to be in conflict with each other? What if there were a way to honor our desire for a passionate, exciting new beginning on a personal level, while also expanding our perspectives around the longer game for society? What if this could also be combined with honoring our quest for a socially responsible way of life? And what if that way of life could feel exciting and sustainable for all?<\/p>\n We seek excitement and growth right now; we may not be satisfied with how things are — we feel an inner restlessness which demands freedom and “space” but doesn’t necessarily return the favor. We may have a tendency to overdo or over-exert — and our expectations of ourselves and others might be way too high.<\/p>\n Ask yourself:<\/strong> What might open up if I expected 5% less of myself, just for today? What if I applied that to others too? Might my physical and mental energy levels help me be realistic about how much I can expect of myself right now?<\/p>\n With this aspect, we never feel that we have enough experiences, knowledge, connections, etc. — it’s difficult knowing when to stop. If you can, pause and reflect: this will help with that feeling that you can’t get enough, no matter what you do. If we’re going to get tripped up here, it would be because we don’t know when to stop (or say no).<\/p>\n That said: we needn’t expect to feel tormented — in fact, this could well be a playful and humorous time, with lots of joking around (including practical jokes) smiles, and laughter. The key to this aspect is connecting the desire to be fully ourselves to our pull toward expansive yet truthful worldly explorations.<\/p>\n We also talked in more detail about the “Mars aspects with Jupiter, Pluto & Saturn in Capricorn”<\/strong><\/em>, in relationship to our own birth charts, in a previous webinar. For more info or to purchase this webinar, click here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 16-23 degrees of Aries, Capricorn, Libra<\/strong>, or Cancer<\/strong> ? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries<\/strong> or Sagittarius<\/strong>\u00a0 (Mars is the ruler of Aries, Jupiter of Sagittarius).<\/em><\/p>\n Also, Monday very early morning<\/strong>, a somewhat challenging Venus\/Mars aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 3:03am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Sunday very early morning <\/strong>(Oct. 18th) on, it will remain strong until Tuesday very early morning. <\/strong>We feel uneasy about something, sort of awkward; we need to make a choice. We need to develop inner awareness, so we can make adjustments.<\/p>\n This might concern compromising with others. Our enthusiasm might make us impatient or hasty with others. Our values may not be in alignment with those we work with. As best as you can, keep choosing the “better” alternative, adjusting as needed.<\/p>\n When life slows down, or becomes uncomfortable, simplify and be patient. We are changing and growing in ways that we can’t comprehend right now. Stay as open and observant as you can. Ask yourself: How neutral could I allow myself to be? This combo could also be related to health aspect, so as best as you can, take extra care of your physical well-being and follow daily routines that support your physical energy.<\/p>\n Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 16-22 degrees of\u00a0Virgo<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0Aries<\/strong>? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our\u00a0Ascendant\u00a0or Sun-sign in\u00a0Taurus, Libra<\/strong>,\u00a0or\u00a0Aries<\/strong>\u00a0(Venus rules Taurus and Libra; Mars rules Aries).<\/em><\/p>\n Monday very early morning<\/strong>, a harmonious Venus\/Jupiter aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 3:35am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Friday <\/strong>(Oct. 16th) on, it will remain strong until this Wednesday morning. <\/strong>This aspect brings a good dose of optimism, faith and a sense of the “bigger picture” to our business relationships and daily work or wellness routines. We tend to relate to others in a positive (even inspiring) manner; as you can imagine, it is thus much easier to make social contacts.<\/p>\n Our outlook is more cheerful and hopeful, the atmosphere cooperative, yet grounded in reality — it’s a great time for winning people’s enthusiasm. We are more optimistic and trusting with colleagues and authority figures. We might feel an urge to do business with people from other countries or foreign cultures, just to widen our horizons.<\/p>\n Financially, there might be a tendency to spend more than usual, as we feel confident that an abundance of resources is available to us. The thing to watch out for is the feeling that we don’t have to actually do anything to “cash in”.<\/strong><\/p>\n There are indeed definitely plenty of opportunities to be had, financial and otherwise, especially in connection with government contracts (or anything that involves public office). Educational businesses, or endeavors, the wellness industry, and the travel industry are also highlighted \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Ask yourself: What opportunities are opening up to me at this time? What connections might bring about expansion? What if I asked “who” as well as “how”? Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 16-23 degrees of Virgo, Capricorn<\/strong> or Taurus<\/strong>? If so, you will be most blessed by this aspect. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra<\/strong> or Sagittarius<\/strong> (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).<\/em><\/p>\n Last but not least, Monday late evening<\/strong>, a Mercury\/Uranus opposition becomes exact<\/em> at 10:53pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Oct. 3rd on, it will remain strong until Thursday evening<\/strong> (Oct. 22nd). This is an unusually long time for an aspect involving Mercury (due to the planet’s current Station and Retrograde phase).<\/p>\n We are better off thinking outside the box for as long as this aspect is in effect. We want to change a life situation (or intimate relationship) that is out of alignment with who we now want to be.<\/p>\n Our minds may feel overwhelmed by what all this means, especially as it relates to our intimate relationships or financial partnerships.\u00a0Stay calm, as best as you can: Sudden or rash decisions might backfire.\u00a0Do your best to ground all your thinking, connect to your body, and allow yourself to fully receive any new insights.<\/p>\n We are very likely to feel quite nervous or anxious at this time, as we become aware of what’s not working for us anymore — and the itch to move forward and realize a new vision feels very strong. It may well be true that something needs to change — but we must take care not to rush into anything.<\/p>\n Think back to late April \/ early May of this year<\/strong>, when Mercury aligned with Uranus in Taurus<\/strong><\/em>: What was your thinking then? What seeds did you plant, related to your own individuation process, or the reinvention of your earning power? Have those seeds sprouted? Did you have an “Aha moment” since then? What still needs to change? We are also now more aware of what we have (and haven’t) communicated since then… Is there room for more integration?<\/p>\n Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 6-12 degrees of…<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n ***<\/strong><\/p>\n ALREADY A MEMBER?

If so, you will be more affected by this aspect.\u00a0This is also true for those of us who have our\u00a0Ascendant\u00a0or Sun-sign in\u00a0Gemini, Virgo<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0Aquarius<\/strong>\u00a0(Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius).<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tuesday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius<\/strong><\/em> all day<\/strong> (see Monday morning for details).<\/p>\n Tuesday at 11:38pm EDT<\/strong>, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC)<\/a>, that lasts for a little over 3 hours until 2:44am EDT<\/strong> (Wednesday very early morning). Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to connect with others in a generous way, explore your one-on-one relationships, have an adventure with someone, or simply do something that gets you excited about possible collaborations.<\/p>\n As always with a\u00a0Moon VoC<\/a>, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Tuesday late evening until Wednesday very early morning ahead of time.<\/p>\n If you set intentions last week Friday or Saturday,<\/strong> after the New Moon became exact, today (Tuesday<\/strong>) before 11:38pm and tomorrow (Wednesday) after 2:44am EDT, will be the best time to start taking relevant actions. If you wrote your intentions down, go back and take another look at what came through intuitively. If you didn\u2019t write anything down, get quiet for a moment and check in with yourself: What actions are calling to you?<\/p>\n Also, on Tuesday<\/strong>, Mercury ends its station and gets back to its normal pace through the sky<\/em> — but moving backward through the sky, as seen from Earth (that\u2019s what \u201cretrograde\u201d refers to). We have a chance to do some internal work on thinking and\/or communication issues that came up over the last couple of weeks, in connection with our intimate relationships, and financial partnerships.<\/p>\n We also talked in more detail about the “Mercury Retrograde phase in Scorpio-Libra”<\/strong><\/em>, in relationship to our own birth charts, in a previous webinar. For more info or to purchase this webinar, click here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Wednesday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius<\/strong><\/em> and VoC<\/a> until 2:44am EDT; at that time<\/strong>, the Moon moves into practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn<\/strong><\/em>, where it will journey until Friday morning<\/strong>. We tend to be more realistic, serious, cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.<\/p>\n Our ambition surges and brings with it a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this Moon placement supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes very important to us.<\/p>\n As best as you can during this time, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying “I am doing the best I can and that’s all I can ever do” \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn<\/strong>;\u00a0 it is currently transiting through its own sign, making this a great time to take look at our long-term aspirations and anything that we would like to master until Dec. 2020.<\/strong> It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our strategies for self-mastery.<\/p>\n For starters<\/strong>: Do you truly see “what’s so” in your life — as opposed to what you merely wish it to be, or what you would like it to be, or where you see yourself going, etc.? What is actually so right now? Once you have a handle on where “A” is, it’s easier to “go from A to B” — whether “B” is self-mastery or standing on the mountaintop. This Moon placement also starts the build-up towards the first Quarter Moon (exact Saturday early afternoon).<\/p>\n Again, if you set intentions last week Friday or Saturday<\/strong>, after the New Moon became exact, keep taking relevant actions today (Wednesday<\/strong>). If you wrote your intentions down, go back and take another look at what came through intuitively. If you didn\u2019t write anything down, get quiet for a moment and check in with yourself: What actions are calling to you?<\/p>\n Wednesday early afternoon<\/strong>, we are invited to make adjustments and find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations. As best as you can, make space for looking into some alternative exercise programs or holistic approaches to your personal projects and current long-term commitments. Compassion is key \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Wednesday late afternoon<\/strong>, could prove to be a great opportunity to connect with others and talk about our long-term plans, so we can get some clarity about what we feel most passionate about. We may want to communicate our desire for deeper, more intimate connections with others — or, at the very least, conduct some research into how to have such connections.<\/p>\n Wednesday early evening<\/strong>, a harmonious Venus\/Pluto aspect <\/em>becomes exact at 5:42pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Sunday afternoon <\/strong>(Oct. 18th) on, it will remain strong until this Saturday morning<\/strong>. This aspect brings a fruitful and rewarding period in our lives. We experience new depths of intimacy (with an existing or new partner), we learn to appreciate the important people in our lives, and our value system transforms and evolves.<\/p>\n This is likely an excellent period for finances as well.\u00a0Work we’ve done might pay off, and we are able to manage our finances better, with more attention to detail, planning, and strategy — as well as the elimination of anything that no longer serves us. We might renew a commitment, or bring new, deeper and more intimate energy into a relationship under the influence of this aspect.<\/p>\n Our sexual lives might get a real boost now, as we tend to want to connect on a deeper level. We might find ourselves strongly attracted to someone, almost to the point of obsession.\u00a0If this aspect connects with any of your personal planets,\u00a0you might just meet the “love of your life”.<\/p>\n One thing is for sure — relationships experienced now are bound to be unforgettable. While this transit tends to signal new or strengthened relationships, any relationship that ends during this cycle may leave us feeling liberated.<\/p>\n Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 19-26 degrees of\u00a0Virgo,\u00a0Capricorn<\/strong>,\u00a0or\u00a0Taurus<\/strong>? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our\u00a0Ascendant\u00a0or Sun-sign in\u00a0Taurus, Libra<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0Scorpio<\/strong>\u00a0(Venus being the ruler of Taurus and Libra, while Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio).<\/em><\/p>\n Wednesday evening<\/strong>, we are invited to connect with like-minded people, and learn something new about our unique talents or value to the world. We are better able to connect to anything that involves a long-term commitment. We perhaps might also implement revolutionary business practices or government programs that support our values and make life tangibly more enjoyable.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thursday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn<\/strong><\/em> all day<\/strong> (see Wednesday very early morning for details).<\/p>\n Thursday evening<\/strong>, the Sun changes signs from harmony-seeking Libra<\/strong> to passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio<\/strong><\/em>, where it will journey until Nov. 21st.<\/strong> The guiding principle of Scorpio is “I desire”. With the Sun in Scorpio our consciousness is drawn towards depth, intimacy, and extremes of feeling.<\/p>\n Superficiality simply will not do for the next 30 days. We have the desire to get to the bottom of what matters. We are more interested in that which is hidden, taboo, secret or suppressed. Scorpio’s energy is passionate, strong-willed, and intense. Used in its highest vibration, it can be an immensely healing and transformative energy.<\/p>\n On a lower vibration, Scorpio<\/strong> can express jealousy, vindictiveness, and use manipulative tactics. Bring your awareness towards your feelings, fears and behaviors. As best as you can, embrace all your feelings, let go of your fears and strip yourself from behaviors that no longer serve you.<\/p>\n All this is especially true if you are a\u00a0Leo<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0Scorpio<\/strong> Sun-sign or Rising-sign. As a Scorpio<\/strong>, you will feel a good dose of confidence and playfulness in the next four weeks; as a Leo<\/strong>, you are more aware of your own shadow parts\u2026 anything that you have suppressed or denied about yourself.<\/em><\/p>\n Thursday late evening<\/strong>, a somewhat challenging Mercury\/Chiron aspect<\/em> becomes exact at 9:34pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect from Wednesday late evening on, and it remains strong until Friday late evening.<\/strong> This aspect operates more on an internal level. We feel uneasy about something, almost awkward — and we need to make a choice\u2026 so we need to develop inner awareness.<\/p>\n This boils down to feeling “stumped” — we feel like we can’t get our head around things, or make decisions.\u00a0 As best as you can, be kind and compassionate to yourself.\u00a0Ask yourself: Could I hang out with the inner discomfort this is stirring up, just for right now?<\/p>\n Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 5-7 degrees of Scorpio<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0Aries<\/strong>?\u00a0If so, you will be more affected by this aspect.\u00a0This is also true for those of us who have our\u00a0Ascendant\u00a0or Sun-sign in\u00a0Gemini\u00a0or\u00a0Virgo\u00a0(Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo).<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Friday<\/strong>, the Moon remains in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn<\/strong><\/em> until 8:17am EDT<\/strong> (see Wednesday very early morning for details).<\/p>\n Thursday night\/Friday very early morning, at 12:35am EDT<\/strong>, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC),<\/a> that lasts for almost 8 hours until 8:17am EDT<\/strong>. Use this intuitive time to focus on long-term projects that involve a mature and realistic approach. As best as you can, take your time, and do your best to show your expertise.<\/p>\nBefore we get to this week’s forecast, one last mention:<\/h3>\n
