November begins with Chiron, Uranus and Neptune retrograde. All the dates below are for Australian Eastern Daylight Time.
Chiron squares Saturn for the final of three exact ‘hits’ on November 3. The exact dates are:
This is the waning square in the Saturn Chiron Cycle that began in 1966 and the key times are:
I feel that Saturn / Chiron cycle challenges us to take responsibility for our personal and collective woundings. It calls for acceptance of our imperfections and differences as well as the reconciliation of opposites and is reminding us all to honour the True Self in ourselves and others
As this is the waning square in the cycle it suggests a crisis in consciousness and a need to look within …to let go old patterns that limit and restrict us from accepting who we truly are and allowing ourselves to be our authentic selves free from Saturnian limitations.
Personally and collectively we are being challenged to see the BIG PICTURE and develop a more transpersonal perspective. Currently this features prominently in Australia in our debate about Marriage Equality and closer to home in Victoria in the Euthanasia debate.
The shadow side of this cycle may lead to
Ultimately Saturn square Chiron challenges us to accept that we are all wounded in some way and that this is an essential part of who we are and needs to be embraced and accepted as a key part of the soul’s journey.
The November Full Moon, on November 4 emphasizes the Taurus / Scorpio polarity. This Full Moon asks us each year to re-evaluate our values and balance our need to create and build something tangible [Taurus] with our need to let go and allow the process of transformation [Scorpio] to take place. It also emphasizes the need to focus on what is mine [Taurus] and what is ours [Scorpio], especially in relationship.
The full moon is opposite to Jupiter [which is conjunct the Sun], adding an emotional intensity to the lunation and emphasizing whatever emotional space we find ourselves experiencing at this time.

- alienation from ourselves, others, society.

Saturn trines Uranus for the final of three exact ‘hits’ on November 11. The dates of the three ‘hits’ are:
This trine is part of the larger Saturn / Uranus Cycle that began in 1988 and is said to be the basic engine of western industrial society & free enterprise. It speaks of the practical application of science / technology / invention and all its gifts. Its shadow speaks of speaks of exploitative capitalism and the rape of the Earth and traditional cultures in the search for profit.
Its constructive application suggests the potential for responsible [Saturn] application of the New Technology [Uranus] in a way that doesn’t create chaos [Uranus] or stagnation [Saturn] and constructive change [Uranus] of Government, bureaucracy, law and order, financial institutions [Saturn] so they can function more efficiently [Saturn] and reflect the current changes [Uranus] in the world situation.
On a personal level this speaks of the tension between our need for stability and change as well as the need for changing outmoded structures that exist in our lives. It is a call for
The November New Moon falls in the sign of Scorpio, illuminating the energy of Scorpio and the area of our chart [and psyche] where Scorpio falls.
Scorpio is a passionate and intensely emotional sign that can fear the depth of feeling that it experiences and may choose to bury or repress these feelings due to the discomfort they arouse. Scorpio’s reputation for control is a fear based reaction of ‘holding on’ while the challenge is to ‘let go’ control and learn to trust in the Self and allow the free flowing of feeling.
This New Moon challenges us all each year to let go fear, by moving closer towards it, rather than running away, and thereby allowing ourselves to experience deeper intimacy with ourselves and others. This is a powerful time for deep sharing and strengthening of intimate connections of all kinds.
The quincunx from Uranus strikes a discordant note that can emphasize the desire to run away, cut off or act erratically. Used in a constructive way, Uranus challenges us to be more authentic and honour the Self in all relationships.
