Your Weekly Horoscope by The Astro Twins
Your Weekly Overview November 14th – November 20th:
Ready to get your feet back on solid ground? While the shock of the U.S. Presidential Election is still settling in to the collective consciousness, we have no choice but to move towards a sense of acceptance. This Monday, November 14 the full moon in Taurus illuminates the skies, flooding the planet with stability and sensibility. This lunation will also be a supermoon, arriving at the closest perigee to Earth of any full moon since January 26, 1948! As such, it will appear to be much bigger to the eye—and astrologically, more impactful. By no means is this full moon meant to silence anyone into submission. Taurus rules the throat chakra; it’s the sign that governs our core values and ethics. This full moon may help people to mobilize around a message or formulate clearer thoughts and a plan of action. And since Taurus understands the rule of K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Sweetheart), boiling things down to the basics can help people get their bullet-pointed messages across.
On a more soothing front, this slow-jamming, sensual full moon reminds us to “be here now.” Election anxiety has frazzled many nerves and there is much to be done to preserve our rights. But we won’t be good for anyone if we don’t take care of ourselves. This full moon sanctions a spa break, a short-term media diet (news, social media), and a retreat to nature. Rent that off-the-grid Airbnb or bundle up for a nature hike. Wander through the farmer’s market and pick up seasonal produce to pop into new recipes. Revel in the fall colors if you live in a place where the leaves are turning crimson as the wind shakes them free from the branches. Adopt the analog mindset and try doing things the old-fashioned way. And while you’re sipping your craft cocktail made with locally sourced organic apple cider, give your mind a chance to relax and regroup. Your thoughts will regather, as will your strength, as you prepare to tell them how you REALLY feel in the days ahead.
Another call for healing comes on Saturday the 19th as compassionate Neptune pivots out of retrograde. Since June 13, the planet of illusions has been in a sleepy retrograde which contributed to people feeling confused, passive and overwhelmed. With Neptune doing a 180, some of that haze starts to clear and our charitable spirits reignite. Have you been ignoring the muse? Creativity is catharsis—and with Neptune resuming forward motion, it might just become a way of life once again instead of something we jam in between all our weighty obligations. Guilt, shame and codependence are the shadow side of Neptune. We’ve likely dabbled in those emotions a-plenty since June. But pulling ourselves out of the morass wasn’t easy since our subconscious minds were blanketing us in an extra layer of fog. The blurred lines and cloudy judgments begin crystallizing into golden lessons come Saturday. Nope, we aren’t going to make THAT mistake again—but hey, we wouldn’t know where to draw our boundaries unless we bumped into a barricade every now and again, right?
