"Space rock"

Maybe you heard about the so-called mini-moon we're going to get for the next two months. I don't know why we're calling it that, especially since we can't see it without a telescope. But it fits. What impact will it have on you? Well it depends on whether or not you own a telescope, because I imagine if you do, you might devote time to trying to see it fly by. Generally speaking, in order for something to have an impact on us earth-dwellers, the following things matter: speed, size, and gravitational pull. *We* are exerting a gravitational pull on the mini-moon, not the other way around, so it's unlikely to impact us much. Also, it's small and fast-moving, and fast-moving things don't make a lot of "noise" in astrological terms. But, just for fun and based on nothing, feel free to blame the mini-moon for any minor incidents that befall you between now and Thanksgiving. Why not?

In trying to get a macro view of the sky at the moment, which means me staring into my charting software and muttering "what are you good for?" I landed on the following: talking about your feelings and getting on the same page as other people in your midst. But this type of talking is the type you do without blame, like a "here's where I'm at, just FYI." Not trying to start fights or cause a reckoning, but just to be real with yourself and others. It's not like this is your only chance ever, but it's a good sky for a reasonable conversation and not a knock-down, drag-out fight if you handle yourself with grace. At least for the next month. So that's my #1 recommendation. Get real with somebody, even if that person is just you.

I'll also give you the advice I landed on for myself: if you had plans that you would describe as recently-thwarted, don't try to force yourself back on track until after Thanksgiving. I had a summer project I was working on in earnest: I had a forward trajectory and everything. Then Saturn went retrograde mid-summer and Pluto retrograded back into Capricorn earlier this month and I felt thrown back into an old situation that I have been trying to find a way out of for a really long time. There was previously light on the horizon and I had an exit strategy and then suddenly: oops, nope, back you go. If I fight too hard I'll probably make a huge mess, so I'm trying to sit quietly until there's a possibility I might be let out again. I think I need Pluto out of Capricorn and a forward-moving Saturn, which is post-Thanksgiving. I'll take any low-hanging opportunities, but I'm not hopeful on real change until winterish. I have a countdown going. We're in the 50+ day zone. Not pleasant but doable.
