Surprising Obsessions: Astrology Forecast November 1st - 7th, 2021

Hearts and minds are both on the move this week, during which cosmic energies could direct many of us in a surprising direction, perhaps against our better judgement.

Monday and Tuesday are firmly rational days, dominated by the activities of Mercury in diplomatic mode. A mercurial trine to Jupiter on Monday makes it seem like anything is possible, if only you ask nicely – but Tuesday’s square between Mercury and Pluto soon knocks that idea on the head. Turns out that anything IS possible, but only if you’re willing to make some dodgy deals to facilitate it. Appeasing or pleasing the powers that be will get you everywhere early this week, but many of us will wonder whether everywhere is actually all it’s cracked up to be.

No time to ponder the rights and wrongs of the first half of the week, however, as soon enough Thursday’s New Moon in Scorpio presents us with another dilemma. This is extremely intriguing energy, encouraging obsessions and fascinations of all kinds – but with a tense opposition to Uranus in the mix, these obsessions may take a surprising turn.

If you suddenly develop an all-consuming interest in newt keeping, Egypt’s third dynasty or the Aronszajn-Smith theorem, don’t worry. You’re not (that) crazy, you’re just being led in some weird and wonderful directions, for a time, in order to explore what’s possible in the world.

On a trickier note, the New Moon energies can bring shocks and surprises, particularly if you have been engaged in anything secret, illicit or underhand. It may seem all too easy to start something secret now too, but be aware that all things come out in the wash, astrologically speaking; even if you get away with it during this lunar cycle, it will only be a matter of time before truth will out.

Friday brings a subtle shift in planetary energy, with two sign changes. Venus leaves freedom-loving Sagittarius and arrives in sensible, sober Capricorn, urging us to take love (and money) more seriously; Mercury meanwhile leaves airy, egalitarian Libra and moves into deep-thinking Scorpio. Indeed, Scorpio season is well underway at this point, with all of the seasonal passion-but-subterfuge this typically embodies.

In other words: it’s an interesting week. But honesty matters, and so do motives.

ARIES

The New Moon’s push-pull influence raises angst over what you have versus what you’re willing to share. Money concerns are an obvious manifestation of this, with debt looming and difficulties in paying back what you owe, but this energy can also apply to love, time or anything else which matters a great deal to you. Holding on to what is “yours” will be a preoccupation, but ask yourself whether anything is truly yours or not. In the end, isn’t all of it just borrowed? And if so, why not be more generous with it?
