November's Cosmic Forecast: Endings + Rebirth
Scorpio Season
After a playful introduction to autumn with airy Libra energy, we are asked to dive deep into our depths with the arrival of Scorpio season. The month of November brings in self discovery, transformation, rebirth, and the changing of self perspective. November is the 11th month of the year, the numerology of divine alignment, spiritual connection, and new beginnings. This month we are challenged to shed our old way of being for a truer, more fulfilling existence. This energy may feel more serious and heavy, but it is a reminder that we must live our lives with intention. Scorpio doesn’t take anything lightly, always seeking the deeper meaning of life. They don’t believe in stunting their personal growth in order to remain comfortable. The scorpion represents this fixed water sign, an animal known for its resilience and protective yet poisonous stinger. Ruled by Pluto in contemporary astrology, the planet of death and rebirth, this sign is truly the pheonix of the astrological wheel! You can use this energy to shed old existences and identities with grace and ferocity. Lean into the new with courage vs fear! Scorpio reminds us that life is a series of constant change and rediscovery of the self.
Scorpio season pop culture: Ryan Gosling is best known for his smoldering stare, his provocative roles, and private persona. Although classified as a Hollywood heartthrob, this Canadian actor picks projects that challenge this classic stereotype. Walking the fine balance of public and personal, Ryan makes sure to keep his public life separate from his family and home. Every movie we see this star in creates a different persona of who we believe Ryan to be. We can learn from this actor how to navigate multiple worlds at once while maintaining an air of mystique and mystery!
Full Moon/Total Lunar Eclipse in Taurus, November 8th
On November 8th, we will experience a full moon eclipse in the earthy and sensual Taurus! Lunar Eclipses amplify the energy and themes of the full moon. Rather than taking action during this transit, it’s important to observe what the universe is trying to reveal to you. Taurus is a very tactile sign, using all the senses to connect to the world around it. It’s also the sign most tapped into the natural abundance flow of finances and material matter. With this full moon eclipse, we will be asked to reevaluate what abundance and prosperity means to us. You can start to see patterns with how you stand in your way when it comes to money and finances! Take all the information that is revealed to you with openness, learning how to utilize it moving forward in order to heal your relationship with money and the material sectors of your life.
Full moon/Total Eclipse in Taurus pop culture: In the movie “Hustlers”, Jennifer Lopez and her crew of dancers begin a scam on their clientele that leads to the quick rise and fall of their group.

This full moon eclipse is asking us to remain grounded in our material beliefs as we watch truths be revealed all around us.
Full moon/Total Eclipse in Taurus reflection: Where do my financial beliefs stem from and how are they harmful or supportive to me? What do I value in my life and what do I want to pour into?
