Today the Full Moon is in Taurus at 21′. This represents some sort of ending for a feeling of ownership, possessiveness or the release or sale of artwork, money or other possession. To see the whole Year’s Moon Phases go to this page.
The two weeks following a Full Moon are a time for us to release and let go of something connected to the sign of the Full Moon – in this case Taurus. This can mean anything that is governed by Taurus. Here is a partial list of Taurus ruled subjects:
Singing
The voice
Values
Art
Money & Banking
Connection to Earth
Sensuality
Ownership & Deeds
Beauty
Luxury
Vanity
Possessiveness
Stubbornness
Self-Indulgence
Entitlement
Exclusivity
Additionally, the chart house where you are experiencing the Full Moon will impact what area of life you are being asked to let go of something.
For Example: The Full Moon in Taurus in your 5th house of lover’s, children and creative projects might ask you to release possessiveness of your children or creative projects, or ask you to let go of an issue related to valuing people or yourself based only on money, or it could show you where you have been self-indulgent or stubborn around a creative project. These are all Taurus issues through the lens of the 5th house.
Another example might be: The Full Moon in Taurus in your 3rd house of siblings, neighbors, short trips and communications. The Full Moon in Taurus in the third house might suggest you are too possessive of your phone/e-mail/fax machine or other type of communication. Or it could suggest that there would be mail that puts an ending to something you value or ownership of something like a piece of art. The Taurus Full Moon in the 3rd house could also suggest an ownership dispute in connection to a sibling or neighbor that you will need to deal with somehow.
These are just a few examples of what the Taurus Full Moon could mean in different chart houses. Below are the houses and their meanings:
1st house: Self expression, how others see you
2nd house: Money and possessions, sensuality
3rd house: Siblings, Neighbors, short trips and communication
4th house: Home and immediate family, emotional roots, Mom
5th house: Children, creative projects, lovers and pleasures
6th house: Routines, work, employee’s, pets, health
7th house: Partnerships, justice, legalities, contract
8th house: Shared finances, stocks, bonds, mortgages, sex & death
9th house: Groups, foreigners, higher education, philosophy
10th house: Career, reputation, Status symbols, Dad
11th house: Politics, Humanitarian causes, social groups, parties, complicated systems
12th house: The unconscious, dreams, secrets, mysticism, art, insanity
You can use this guide to get a better idea of what the Full Moon in Taurus means to you, and what you are being asked to let go of over the next 2 weeks.

Here’s one for the record books: there is now a product available that helps you to get the best workout based on your SIGN. Astrology has been used for a lot of things, but this one is new to me.
We can easily use Astrology to pick a good date to start an exercise program, which is called Electional Astrology and is one of the areas that I specialize in (To set up a private session, call my office at (310) 455-2210). But an Astrological workout is completely new.
The DVD is scheduled to be released at Amazon.com and Astrology.com for $24.95 later this month.
On a related note, medical astrology has been around for centuries. There was a time when medical treatment wouldn’t have been considered complete without consulting the stars. Today, there is ample evidence of the Full Moon causing both excessive blood flow and filled ER rooms, and yet today Astrology is still ignored by Western medicine.
At the very least, the Hospital could be prepared for heavy Emergency Room demand by having plenty of staff on schedule during the Full Moon phase. And if YOU are electing to have surgery – avoid the Full Moon for it, since it adds to swelling, bruising and bleeding. Especially in water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces).
More specifics require personalized attention though, which you can get by calling my office to schedule a Astrology appointment (310) 455-2210.
OK, this really has nothing to do with Astrology but I found it to be just plain cool as can be, and besides I like to knit. As you may know, if you read me regularly or subscribe to my Accurate Horoscope Newsletter – the Environment is my #1 political cause. Earth really needs us to pay attention to her needs. My brief glimpses into 2009 Astrology trends only confirm this and point out the problems that I see coming. But every cloud has some kind of silver lining, and right now, the silver lining is that the way OUT of current financial crisis will come from an ECO-BOOM of green business. All kinds of green business.
So I found this cool blog with a great pattern for knitting a grocery bag. You see, those plastic bags that we get at the store don’t bio-degrade, and they choke and kill wild animals, especially in the ocean. They are truly one nasty little piece of work. So, the alternative is to carry your own. That knitted bag is really cute – way better than what we usually see out there. And if you want to take it one step further, you can actually knit yourself a bag out of old plastic grocery bags! you use the bags themselves as the ‘yarn’. Now that’s creative. And GREEN. Maybe someone out there is enterprising enough to make this idea into an Eco-boom green business?! You’d be smart if you did.
It’s pretty common knowledge that the Reagan Administration used Astrologers and consulted them regularly, so when Obama made Nancy Reagan look like a whack job by saying she had ’seances’ it was pretty out of line, which is why he apologized later.
This story on Obama’s Astrology gaffe gives the overview. When reached for comment, AstrologyChick had this to say, “Hey, FIRST OFF Astrology is NOT a seance and never has been! The two are from completely different planets and SECOND: author Alex Carnevale should have been on my Astrology Newsletter list where an Obama prediction was made loud and clear.”
A related story on the AP Wire discussed how Hilary Clinton was consulting a spiritual advisor and the press suddenly got all fast and loose with the term ’seance’. We asked a local surfer to comment on the subject, “Dude, Seance, is like a totally different thing. Really, like, go and check your dictionary and stuff. Aren’t you like, press, guys supposed to be like, all smart and know big words and what they mean and sh*t?”
A lot of mysticism was tossed around in the media and in connection to the White House today. Did they know that the Moon was in mystic Pisces, or were they just mindless Astro-zombies playing out the will of the Astrological planets on a purely unconscious level?
Two scenario’s are possible here a) the press could have a secret plan to take over the world by using Astrology to time the release of their stories, or b) they do NOT use the stars, claim the stars have no impact, and then do exactly what the stars SHOULD compel them to do. Either way, the date for these stories is right in line with the Astrology of the Pisces Moon. Is it just an accident? You decide.
I often see Astrology references in pop culure, but especially in music. Song titles like, “Bad Moon Rising” make subtle reference that is often over the heads of the listeners. A new album out called ‘Kind of New’ makes reference to the Head of the Dragon – an Astrology reference to the Moon’s Nodes, and specifically to the path of destiny and soul purpose, also called Dharma by the Tibetans.
It’s not surprising to learn that singer, songwriter Mary Halvorson is a knowledgeable Astrologer, even pointing out that some Musicians have used the ancient secret art of Astrology to help them achieve success. Ahhh, this is a girl after my own heart. This makes her music worth a serious look-see.
Also, we constantly see SPACE in popular culture. From UFO sightings to Klingon’s and the romantic gesture of buying someone a personal STAR at the star registry. You may find it fun to check out the website Bad Astronomy even though it puts a whole ton of effort into debunking Astrology.
Here’s my take on his point of view: most Astrology really is bad, so he’s not wrong. But he’s not right either. Before I explain why he’s not right, let’s take a look at what is commonly called ’scientific thinking.’ By definition Scientific thinking is considered black and white, and provable through verifiable results. This is our idea of ‘rational thought’.
But what about quantum physics? Quantum physics is DEFINITELY scientific. It has also given us particle accelerators, split atoms and masses of power that could only be dreamt of by other forms of science. Clearly, by the eslf proclaimed rules of ’scientific thinking’ Quantum physics has give us RESULTS. Ya can’t really argue with results. But here’s the rub; quantum physics does not use ’scientific thought’ at all! In Quantum physics there is only that which is probable or not probable. It is through a series of assmuptions that results are produced! HUH? That sounds like intuition! But it produces scientifically verifiable results! How can this be?
One science experiment that was graphically explained in ‘What the Beep Do We Know?” shows how the act of watching an experiment influences the outcome of that experiment. Wow. Where does that put black and white scientific thinking? I don’t really know. All I know is that results speak for themselves. If results are what we are after, then limited thinking has to go. Maybe life is kinda grey, or actually just shades of tan, like skin.
If you want to release the thinking limits that stand in your way and get into real RESULTS then check out my free report on the Law of Attraction. It’s not Astrology, per se but it works. Actually, my ‘Secret CD” Does explain why the LAW OF ATTRACTION and Quantum Physics and The SECRET actually really ARE Astrology. And if you stick around, read my newsletter and audio, you will start to see how it all fits together. Ya see, I am a totally RESULTS oriented kind of grrl. A practical Astrologer if you will. I am all about how to use those QUANTUM WAVES to create your dreams. Life is good!
Yes, it’s true, there’s an Astrologer out there who makes forecasts for Football sports teams. This article gives you the top NFL Astrology picks from an unnamed Vedic Astrologer. I have done evaluations for sports teams myself and was published in the LA Times back for my prediction of the Laker’s championship win. It takes quite a bit of work to look into sports teams and their chances of winning, but if you’re a big fan (or you bet on the NFL then I’m sure it’s worth it.
Please NOTE: This seems like something followed by expert gamblers (which I am not – I don’t even understand the lingo). So please be careful with the information unless you know more than I do about sports! Probably you do, since I am hopelessly lost when it comes to anything connected to the NFL. I get Astrology, but NFL language is over my head. That’s ok, I’m not really that into football anyway. Still, some of those guys look really great in their tights….
What’s up for November? Well for starters we’re beginning to be under the influence of the next pair of Eclipses – CHANGE is the operative word here. Clearly US politics just went through a heap of change, are YOU ready for change? The upcoming (but already felt) Eclipses of change bring us all a 1-2 punch of the REMOVAL OF PHILOSOPHICAL BLOCKAGES (and legal ones to boot) and FAMILY SECRETS REVEALED.
Also in November; Venus and Pluto team up at the Edge of Sagittarius easing into Capricorn. Together they make things get intense and passions run HIGH; first philosophically while they stand in Sag for the fist half of the month. Hopefully, potentially, this can mark the end of the deep fractured divide that has wounded our National consciousness for so long. It’s time for a new philosophy – a philosophy of unity. Then when they move into Capricorn, Venus leads the way towards a new (practical) work ethic. Yes, this is a foreshadowing of a new system and a new approach to problems. The more flexible you are, the better you will be able to adapt. And adapt we must – all of us. But get ready, ’cause the new Eco-Boom is getting ready to start in earnest now.
What do the Eclipses of Change mean for YOU? Click here to find out:
Aries: Social energy and travel in your life gives way to family concerns and a more sober outlook on what needs to come next for you. It’s all about planning, and this month you may find yourself reviewing what you believe and how you act in the world. It is especially revealing for you to look at the attitudes you inherited from you parents to decipher if they are really true for you any longer, or if you need to re-invent yourself somehow. One key to re-invention is in the Law of Attraction
Taurus: You are gearing up to learn the power of leverage, influence and passion. These are the tools you will be using all month to get what you want and where you want to go. The only grey spot in this forecast is if you don’t know WHAT your true passion is. Sexual passion is just fine, but real, life passion comes from living on purpose to your soul, which attracts relationships with those on the same wavelength. So, if things aren’t going quite how you want, then figure out how to tap into your true life passion, the Law of Attraction can help.
Gemini: Try not to feel like an umbrella in a fishbowl this month, even if you ARE a little bit off on the sidelines at times. This is a golden opportunity for you to withdraw from the outward frenzy of the glitterati and reflect inwardly on what and who you truly are. There is a huge amount of knowledge and wisdom for you to gain by just focusing on the here and now, day to day mundane things that need to be done. It’s amazing how profound a mindful walk through the neighborhood can be, it could even solve a big question you’ve been worrying to death.
Cancer: The Full Moon Nov 12/13 at 21′ Taurus asks you to let go of something you are emotionally attached to (a social position?) Then the New Moon in Nov 27th at 6′ Sag teams up with the station Direct of Uranus at 18′ Pisces and together they literally put the legal paperwork on the grill to be fried. Rules, laws and the status quo are getting turned inside out. Get ready to be very flexible, things ‘aint gonna be like they’ve always been (but that’s actually a good thing – shh, it’s our little secret).
Leo: This is a tough month for you regarding family and long-term influences that you’ve been involved with. A major cycle of change is upon you and asks you to let go of an old identity in the world. This is easier for those who don’t think their social standing determines their worth. Leo GW Bush is letting go of the title of president, Leo Madonna is letting go of the title of ‘wife’ You see how letting go of titles changes things? What title are you letting go of?
Virgo: There are advantages to being the fly on the wall (so to speak). You get to observe everything kind of unnoticed. Then it’s up to you what you do with the information, and it really could be worth Gold, if you’re paying close attention. A few unbidden secrets will drop in your lap this month. Hmm, there is a moral question that this raises, ’cause you could be in the position to blackmail someone, hurt a reputation or prosper from someone else’s pain. I don’t recommend it, it will backfire.
Libra: Obsession, thy name is Libra. What is going on that’s driving you so nuts? Sometimes ya gotta drop the old saw and accept something just as it IS. It may not be easy, but the alternative is to drive yourself and everyone else bonkers. No joke. You might be finding yourself in a situation where you just CAN’T get your emotional needs met. So go somewhere else – let go! It’s the only path to peace.
Scorpio: Even if you KNOW something, even if you are SURE you have the answer, even if you are CERTAIN you could improve this situation, but nobody will hear it, is it real? It’s the old, “if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it does it make a noise?” conundrum. Well, quantum physics tells us the answer is yes and no. Yes, in that, if the tree hears itself then it WAS heard. No, in the sense that the observer affects the experiment and changes the outcome. In other words, listen to you own inner voice and run from those who don’t see/hear you.
Sagittarius: It’s now or never. There is literally an expiration date on something that has lasted about 15 years in your life. you are moving into an entirely new (and unknown cycle). Let’s hear it for adventure, you’ve gotta be anticipating a change, and hoping it’s a good thing. Well, it IS good for you if you can learn to be very grounded, practical and tangible in your focus. The next 15 years are all about physical values and resources, so you could get rich. But that’s entirely up to you.
Capricorn: It’s like someone has just put the royal robes over your shoulders and tossed a crown onto your head. Oh yeah, they call that a ‘coronation’ – are you ready to step into your own personal ‘kingdom’? Are you ready to embrace your power? Are you ready to rule your domain like wise royalty? These questions and more will be put to the test in the coming months (and years). But for now, late in November, you will feel an intense RUSH of energy.
Aquarius: This month is a double whammy of changes for you. First Neptune Went Direct on the 2nd in your sign, finally releasing the floodgates on pent-up energy (evidenced by the flood of voters at the polls on the 4th). Second, on the 27th, your Uranus ruler goes direct in Pisces. This may have an even more dramatic impact on you than the last one, by bring things into sharp physical and tangible focus. Security, sensuality, money, art and your possessions all come into sharp focus at the end of the month, starting a new 6 month cycle for you.
Pisces: Get ready, because that famous change you’ve been hearing so much about is ready to whip through your life like a Santa Ana wind. Break out the Beatles’ “Sargent Peppers” ’cause starting on the 27th, Uranus; planet of change and revolution asks, no, make that demands, a change in your outlook and self-presentation. It’s like having a whole life makeover all in one fell swoop. Well, ok, maybe it will take 6 months, but still. It’s dramatic.
I found some really great stories on Astrology that you might like, including this one about the chart of Vice President Joe Biden by Criag Malone, I know we will all be paying close attention to the Vice Presiden Elect, so now is a good time to start getting familiar with the Astrology the effects him.
Precision and accuracy is the key to good astrology and correct timing. Over at planet waves they had to rework a little technology in order to get their widget right, we wish them good technological ju-ju!
Did you know that if you are a practiced Astrologer you can use the TIME that a question occurs or is asked to answer that question? This is called Horary Astrology and has been used for centuries. Christopher Warnock, Esq gives you the traditional perspective and overview on how it works.
All schools of Astrology are able to address health concerns and timing for surgery. Here is one Vedic Astrologer’s perspective on how it’s done. The Vedic language is kind of confusing for Westerners, and it IS a whole different system. But don’t be scared by this, there are very simple rules for looking at Mars to be sure that you are in a safe time for any kind of surgery; cosmetic, elective, or medical.
This week – and today – election day, we have a heated set of planetary aspects. But, surprise, emotions are high on the campaign trail and Americans are looking for a fight, no matter what side of the ‘fence’ they are on. This has caused people to even attack ME for making Astrological predictions. sheesh!
Here on this blog, I have gotten slammed on a number of occasions simply for stating my Astrological perspective and making Astrological predictions. Ok, sure I have an opinion too. I’m human. Just for the sake of transparency here is where I am coming from:
1) My number 1 concern and care is for the environment and the planet. And I don’t just talk about it, I run a biodeisel car. I despise the oil companies and what is happening to our world because of pollution and greed. I put my money where my mouth is. I cannot in good conscience give my money to these oil criminals. Precious few people are really doing what matters and taking themselves off of the system that doesn’t work. For me, I believe this is the ONLY thing we CAN do. I don’t think politicians can save us.
2) I run a business, a company and I care deeply about how policy effects my ability to pay people! I am an extremely practical person. I only care about what WORKS. I knew 7 years ago that the mortgage system was being built to fail, and I said so in my columns (Oh yeah, people attacked me then too).
3) I grew up as the child of hippies, Aura is my real name for pete’s sake. So I know first hand what all the weaknesses of delusional, fairy tail, escapist thinking can be. I actually see the rational side to EVERY argument. And I don’t like politicians. None of them. I think our problems are bigger than this. I advocate individual change and responsibility.
4) I believe the best political activism is the activism that creates individual action and personal change and responsibility: plant a garden, get on bio-fuels, invest in wholistic self-sustaining systems (stay away from get rich quick schemes!), take care of your own health by eating healthy and doing regular intestinal cleanses, and exercise, work together with other people, be part of community, live with good values and treat people as you’d like to be treated.
Pretty simple really. Pretty common sense, but for some reason people who read my Astrology predictions think that I am a politico. I am not. I hate politicians (yes, all of them), I just state what I see. I often see things I don’t like, but I am prescient in a way that people need to hear, so I share it. I have even been accused of creating the things I see. Please people! I am merely a messenger. All I want to do is laugh at how crazy this 3 ring circus has become:
Yeah. laughter really IS the best medicine. And here’s my most poignant Astrology prediction yet: We will all need our sense of humor to get through the things that are coming up, because the whole thing is completely INSANE. It doesn’t matter what side of the political warfare you find yourself on, a little kindness, a lot of humanity and deep servings of humor are going to be indispensables. That’s my Astrological story, and I’m sticking to it.
