November 2020: Waiting for the other shoe to drop.

This report is late, sorry folks. Life is getting in the way but sometimes that happens. Mercury just stationed on Election Day and Mars Rx has a few days to go. Uranus Rx and Neptune Rx all month. I was away for a few days, having a good time and I was distracted. I was also waiting for the election outcome like everybody else. The Mercury station has just turned up the gas so now I have plenty to say.

The declared winner and president-elect (November 7) is Joe Biden. He is officially the new man in the driver’s seat. At last we can breathe, although we are not quite out of the woods yet since Trump refuses to concede the election. I wish he would grow up and be gracious about it so we can get on with our lives. I detect a hint of mental instability and possible breakdown. His natal Sun and Uranus are opposite the Moon. Watch that Full Moon in Gemini on November 30. I have amended this report several times, but it’s time to get it off the board. By the way, happy birthday to Joe Biden on November 20. The future looks bright!

Jupiter and Saturn are picking up steam, separating from Pluto and soon to leave Capricorn at the Winter Solstice, hand in hand. These two planets have contrasting energies and tend to fight each other. Generally speaking, one planet will dominate over the other. Saturn being the traditional ruler of Aquarius (as well as Capricorn) will probably have more influence. Jupiter is in fall in Capricorn (as opposed to exaltation, in Cancer) so he has not been very powerful there. The Jupiter energy will be stronger in Aquarius (next month, after the Winter Solstice) and change is in the wind. The whole picture will look different. Controlled expansion and controlled progress are what we can hope for after the Winter Solstice.

Mars stations on November 13 and this could be a powerful energy burst for some people, especially Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. Things will happen. Plan on doing some hard work. Drive extra carefully. On a positive note, this is a good time to make an important move, and to be aggressive and deliberate where necessary. Decisions must be made, such as whether to start a project, change your career path, move to a new place or tell somebody off. It depends on your personal circumstances. If you get into a confrontation, just have it out. It may be time to clear the air.

People are talking about a difficult flu season this winter and possibly a great depression next year. As you know, I’m not a crystal ball. I just take one day at a time. The Jupiter Saturn conjunction in Aquarius brings, depending on the situation, upheaval, revolution and radical change, and if these things come through death, loss and personal difficulties we will just have to roll with the punches.

Celestial Almanac: Scorpio New Moon November 15. Gemini Full Moon November 30. You can see Saturn with Jupiter (the brighter one) after dark in the southern sky, and to the east, you can see Mars, a bright, golden color.

Read on for the November forecast. Thank God for all your blessings. Be grateful. Have a Thanksgiving dinner that can’t be beat. Seen here, Arlo Guthrie, in the grand Thanksgiving tradition, Alice’s Restaurant. All rights reserved. He’s gone fishin’ (retired) and we wish him well.
