As already was the case during the month October, Pluto will continue the trine with Jupiter, enabling new initiatives to remove structural problems in our financial and other systems. Try to stimulate them, we need them and be prepared to leave dishonest systems, favoring a happy few at the cost of earth and mankind, radically behind. The conjunction between Mercury and Venus during the first half of November is becoming exact on November 2^nd, shortly after these planets entered Sagittarius. The challenge of this 1^st degree of Sagittarius is to discuss in a sphere where communication will be generally peaceful and full of mutual understanding, but focused on the revelation of the essentials.

The first 10 days of November will probably give fair weather. In general the sphere will be nice and warm. On November 9^th we can enjoy the fascinating view of the monthly repeating conjunction of the Moon and Jupiter in Taurus, depending on a cloudless sky. This will give whom are sensitive to this a warm earthly atmosphere. This changes on November 11^th when the planet Mars enters Virgo. Mars will stay in this sign until the beginning of July 2012, and will be in the biannual retrograde period in this sign. In numerological sense November 11^th will also show something remarkable (11-11-11), with many transformative signs. The sphere will appear to become much more critical with an increasing chance for verbal incidents. When the Sun makes a semi square with Pluto the planet of transformation this influence will be even stronger. From that moment we also enter the semi annual eclipse period. On November 25^th we have a solar eclipse on 3^rd degree of Sagittarius. According to the astrological mandala this degree is the degree of the Sagittarius Grail of philosophy of life. At a low level of cosmic consciousness this can lead to this can degenerate to fierce religious struggles. The message is to learn to stay above this level and to develop a vision of a divine state being the ultimate goal for all kinds of religion and philosophies of life. On November 24^th Mercury starts to move retrograde, this time on the 21^st degree of Sagittarius, the degree of higher psychic power and wisdom. Let Mercury again be our messenger of the Gods and guide us the way to a true understanding in order to turn the energy of the eclipse in a direction of a true understanding of a harmonic cosmic brotherhood. On November 26^th when Venus enters Capricorn the weather will become substantial colder.

The month October appears to become a rather quiet month in fierce times, caused by the transit of Pluto in Capricorn. Pluto in Capricorn shows us failures in systems and structures (a.o. the financial system) and makes clear what should be restructured. Conservative powers will try to prevent better solutions to be introduced in order to prevent their private interests. The transit of the Sun in Libra the first part of October will put a focus on relationships. With also Mercury and Venus in this sign this will turn out to be a pleasant time in general, except there where relationships did exist too long and without a real content. In the period from October 7^th up to October 23^rd these will be tested and especially when from aOctober 9^th Venus enters Scorpio. The Sun will join Venus on October 23^rd when it also enters Scorpio. The friendly climate of being focused on the other changes totally. Superficiality will disappear and will be replaced by depth and many issues will be tested against this. The New Moon of October 26^th on the 3^rd degree of Scorpio is a good moment to do the test in your own personal life. According to Rudhyars astrological mandala this is the degree for the pioneers of the approaching new era. It appears to be meant that everybody in a spiritual mood will question what his/her contribution for the New Era is supposed to be.

In October Pluto makes a trine to Jupiter in Taurus. This trine will be exact on October 28^th on the same day when the Sun makes an opposition with Jupiter and a sextile with Pluto. This special astrological constellation will bring us new impulses for growth but now from a purified inner wish for a better world for all mankind.
