November’s Full Moon occurs at 9:27 AM PST on the 21st at 29 Taurus 17. This is an anaretic degree, one that inherently carries a vibe of extreme stress. The Moon is, as always with a Full Moon, conjunct the Earth and opposed the Sun, and this month we see the suggestion that it is, in a psychic and spiritual sense, impossible for the emotions to contradict (oppose) the Soul identity–and yet, symbolically, they do.
This tension implies that any aspect in effect will be extraordinarily important, and when we use our strict 2 degree orb to determine what will be the message of the Full Moon, we find a quincunx of the Moon/ Earth to the just-direct Venus in Libra, who is so new in her movement that she is not yet even transiting at characteristic speed. Venus is at home, and ruler of the Moon at this point, setting up a dynamic that is highly intimate; the suggestion is that love and partnership, or our relationship to the Arts, is challenged to adjust to the emotional and material realities that surround us–and yet, with all ruled by the involved energy, it becomes extremely difficult to sort out clearly what that reality is–it is in danger of being vetted through a ‘love’ or ‘values’ lens that does not allow for objectivity.
We also find a Fist of God with the Moon/ Earth as apex, and a base of Cardinal square between Ceres and Saturn/ h. Zeus. This says that the Full Moon’s meaning manifests via a mechanism that is born of the conflict between elements of nature and/ or authority (Ceres) and the establishment/ tradition (Saturn) and/ or the desires and ambitions (h. Zeus) associated with ‘what is.’

OK I’ve just realised that the price for a subs is for three months not one DUH! – so ignore my comment on the other thread. I’ve subscribed, esp since I need to read about this full moon which is transiting my natal moon this weekend and causing me huge grief / emotional tension – well something is!
I’ve worked out that I have to add 8 hours to your SST timings to get GMT
Thank you, Jasmine, and welcome to the ECLIPSE Readers group! And as an aside, I used to put everything in GMT, thinking it would be easier for all readers to figure from Greenwich–but decided to be easy on myself, and just go with my time zone–since it’s only a matter of counting how far one is from Pacific–glad you did!

“love and partnership, …is challenged to adjust to the emotional and material realities that surround us”
This is playing out in my city by everyone being snowed in with treacherously slippery roads and sidewalks. By now, people have been locked up with each other for several hours – which could be a good thing with the right person…..or….cabin fever?

I’ve persuaded a friend to join too :^)
Now I just have to work out whether to add or subtract 8 hours – I’m mathematically challenged. You are West of us so surely I have to … uh, I’ll figure it out! Prob explains why sometimes the transits you are talking about have already happened when the email gets here!
The rest of the full moon piece was useful btw. And I’m glad to have got through that weekend in one piece…
Hi Jasmine,
At present, you are 8 hours later than me–BUT (and you can see it’s a big one!) those are really the same timeFor instance, if I say an aspect is perfecting at 1 PM Pacific, it’s happening at 9 PM GMT–and those are the same point in time–just not in space 🙂 They are instantaneous and simultaneous.
As to the emails arriving late, as I said, it has to be held up at your server–but I am wondering if in reality they’re not late, that it’s just the time confusion that’s the problem. I receive the same notice as all signed up for a subscription do–and I literally cannot publish and get back to my email before it arrives! that’s how ‘instant’ the notification is.
Glad to hear you survived the Full Moon!
