Mercury enters Scorpio on Sunday 11:11 Remembrance Day, which is most appropriate for remembering what is deep and significant, and people who were important to you in the past and those you never knew who were important to somebody…This is followed on in emotional vein in the early hours of Monday (12th) by a square between the Sun and Neptune representing the veil between worlds and the veil between reality and illusion. It’s time to go gently with yourself if you have memories to sort through, as we all do. It’s rare to come across a soul who is totally living in the present. So it’s a wallowy sort of week, until we get to Thursday (15th) when Mars turns stationary prior to turning retrograde. So after going back in memory, we may now find ourselves backtracking in our actions. Mars has been forgeing forwards for so long – nearly a year – we may have forgotten how to backtrack. Or we may have convinced ourselves that with our new philosophies we don’t need to. What do we need to re-do in our lives? What paintings need touching up? What novels need knocking into shape? Think back to mid-September, for Mars goes all the way back to the position it was in then, until it turns direct again in late January. So you have about 6 weeks to re-do the last 2 months, basically. Don’t be excusing yourself the exercise on the grounds that you didn’t keep notes! Use your e-mail inbox which you probably haven’t cleared in that time (unless you are super-efficient) to keep track. And buy yourself one of those delectable notebooks from Paperchase to use for next year so that you can at least negotiate the retrogrades. For me, by the way, it was about a book half-finished…And Friday (16th) brings just the aspect to complete your organization: Mercury sextile Saturn. As I’ve said before, if ever there was an aspect perfect for filing that was. You can have some tidy conversations with it too. And for those ahead of the game, if you’ve got some spare time for some extra homework, expansive Jupiter conjuncts powerful Pluto in December, so that’s something to be working on…
