November 2024 Astro Magic

Picture this: you’ve just crawled through the ashes like a reborn Phoenix, and now—boom!—the archer (aka Sagittarius) shows up, flexes, and aims his arrow toward the stars. The vibe shift is real. Scorpio season had us all sweating bullets, facing our phobias, dysfunctions, and those oh-so-cringe things we’ve been avoiding. But Sagittarius? It’s all about looking ahead—no rear-view mirrors allowed.

Now, let’s talk mythology for a sec. Jupiter, aka the king of the gods, rules over Sagittarius. He’s the boss in the sky, but he’s got... let's call it a wardrobe malfunction. The dude couldn't keep it zipped. In his Greek persona as Zeus, he was notorious for sneaking around behind Hera’s back, having affairs left and right, and fathering kids all over the place. Now, before you start thinking this is just some ancient drama about a philandering god, hold up. Zeus wasn’t just a player; he was out sowing the seeds of potential—literally and metaphorically. His thing was about tomorrow, the next adventure, the next big creation. Sounds pretty Sagittarius, right? Always thinking ahead, rarely pausing for reality.

And Hera, bless her, isn’t just the jealous wife rolling her eyes and plotting revenge. She’s the one keeping things grounded. While Zeus is off chasing dreams (and, well, other things), Hera is the one dealing with contracts, responsibilities, and all that practical, boring—but necessary—stuff. She’s the earth to his fire, the real-world anchor that Sagittarius energy desperately needs to avoid floating off into Neverland.

So, what does this mean for us mortals during Sagittarius season? Simple: ditch the baggage, forget the past, and start planning for the future. The energy is prime for setting (realistic!) goals, getting inspired, and focusing on what we can make happen. It’s the perfect time to hit the books, learn something new, travel somewhere far away, or just boost your own vitality. You’re shooting your arrow forward—just make sure you’ve got Hera’s grounding influence, so you actually hit something worthwhile.

5 Ways to Make the Most of Sagittarius Season

1. Fire Magic: Do you remember when you were a child, and you blew out a birthday candle and made a wish? Guess what? You were doing fire magic, and candle magic is one of its chief tools. You can use fire magic any time of the year, but it’s exceptionally potent during Sagittarius season. Other forms of fire magic are scrying, burning incense, and charging objects by the light of the Sun. Use fire magic if you are looking for a boost of energy or a bit of gumption.
   Recommended Candles: The Sun (Astro Magic), Energy and Will (Blessed Herbal Candle), Success (Affirmation)
   
   

2. Intuition Magic:  Psychotherapist Carl Jung believed intuition is linked to the fire element, which Sagittarius is a proud member. You can use intuition magic to boost your psychic abilities, practice divination, and even by scrying with a candle flame and a mirror.
   Recommended Candles: Ancestors (Blessed Herbal), Intuition (Affirmation), Clarity (Chakra Magic)
   
   
3. Good Luck Magic: Jupiter is the planetary ruler of Sagittarius, and he is known for luck and good fortune. But what is luck? Is it something completely random, or is it stretching our perception to take advantage of presented opportunities? Good luck, magic helps put the odds in your favor!
   Recommended Candles: Jupiter (AstroMagic), Prosperity (Blessed Herbal), Venus (Astro Magic)
   
   
4. Travel Magic:  Are you taking a trip and need to make sure everything goes your way?  Sagittarius is associated with long-distance travel – the actual kind and the mental kind. So, you can use this season to plan trips and open your mind to other viewpoints and ideas. The energy of the season helps remove any obstacles that may be in your way.  You can also use this type of magic for astral travel.
   Recommended Candles: Mercury (Astro Magic), Meditation (Affirmation), Answers (Chakra Magic)
   
   
5. Prosperity Magic: Jupiter (the ruler of Sagittarius) is the great benefic and is known for bestowing blessings in the astrology chart. So, like Venus, he is associated with prosperity and financial gain. You can use the energy of Sagittarius to open doors, increase your finances, or get abundance flowing in your life.  To make this energy more potent, do prosperity magic on a Thursday.  Thursday is the day associated with the King of the Gods.

Mercury Rx Dirty Dozen: Wrangling the Trickster God Without Losing Your Mind (Storm’s Remix)

1. Contract chaos? Not today, Mercury! Triple-check anything with fine print. Seriously. If your eyes aren't crossing by the end, you haven't read it enough. Bonus points if you can delay signing until the retrograde ends.

2. New projects? Nope! That bright, shiny idea you’ve got? Put it in a drawer for now. Mercury loves throwing communication curveballs, and who needs more headaches?

3. Zip it. If you think, "Should I say this?"—the answer is no. Mercury is waiting for you to drop a verbal grenade.

4. Vehicle vigilance. Have a car? Love it? Better give it some TLC before Mercury gets his hands on it. Surprise breakdowns aren't cute.

5. Real estate roulette? Avoid it!  Buying a house? Signing a lease? Hold off. The retrograde loves relocating you *again* when you're least ready. Avoid playing Mercury's moving game.

6. Snail mail, now slower! Make sure that birthday gift arrives before next year. Use tracking, insurance, and maybe carrier pigeons—just in case.

7. Travelers, beware! Got plans? Check them. Then check again. Because Mercury will ensure your flight leaves from the wrong airport.

8. Travel light, travel right. If it’s valuable, don’t pack it. Mercury’s got sticky fingers when it comes to lost luggage, and you don’t want to play hide-and-seek with your favorite watch.

9. Blast from the past? Proceed with caution. Ex-friends, ex-lovers, and even that barista you ghosted could suddenly reappear. Smile, nod, and maybe keep a safe distance.

10. Back it up, back it up. No, not the dance move (unless you're into that). Protect your tech! Save everything, because Mercury is just itching to fry your hard drive.

11. Cars are a no-go. If it’s got four wheels and a price tag, don’t buy it. Unless you enjoy spending your weekends at the repair shop.

12. Deal-hunter heaven! While Mercury might mess with your tech, your car, and your sanity, it’s also the perfect time to score killer deals. Scour the sales and laugh as Mercury tries (and fails) to ruin your shopping spree.

Brace yourself, it's Mercury retrograde—but with these tips, you'll be owning it like a Boss!

Lunar Magic:

The New Moon in Scorpio
The New Moon in Scorpio occurs on November 1, 2024.  The New Moon in Scorpio, fresh out of an intense stare down with Pluto in Capricorn, feels like emerging from a dramatic showdown, only to realize—surprise! —you’re still alive and ready to transform. After all that power struggle, it's time to shed the emotional baggage, straighten your crown, and embrace a fresh cycle. Scorpio's like, "Time to dive deep!" while Pluto grumbles, "Sure, but let’s tear down some outdated life structures first." Now that the tension’s easing, you’ve got the perfect opportunity to rebuild with wisdom—less control freak, more enlightened boss. Go ahead, it’s time to start anew, but with power, not paranoia!

The Full Moon in Taurus
The Full Moon in Taurus occurs on November 15, 2024.  The Full Moon in Taurus is your cosmic reminder to stop being a stubborn couch potato, clutching onto your comfort zone like it's a winning lottery ticket. Sure, we all love a cozy blanket and a steady paycheck, but it’s time to declutter that mindset (and maybe your closet, too). Let go of the need to control everything—whether it’s your partner, your bank account, or that random collection of mason jars. This lunar event basically says, “Chill out, trust the process, and stop acting like you're the boss of abundance.” You'll be amazed at what happens when you let go!

Recommended:  Needed Change/Banishing (Blessed Herbal)

Saturday, November 9, 2024:
Venus in Sagittarius square Neptune in Pisces:  When Venus squares Neptune, it’s like putting on rose-colored glasses with a smudge right in the middle.

Tuesday, November 12, 2024
Mercury in Sagittarius square Saturn in Pisces:  Feeling like your brain's stuck in molasses?

Conversations might feel like walking through a mental obstacle course, and self-doubt could sneak in like an uninvited guest. But hey, Saturn’s just here to make sure you’re not half-assing things. So, stay guarded, take it slow, and maybe double-check those emails before hitting send—you’ll thank yourself later!
Recommended:  Tranquility (Affirmation)

Wednesday, November 13, 2024

Recommended:  Energy and Will (Blessed Herbal)

Thursday, November 14, 2024
The Moon in Taurus: On Thursday, the Moon moves out of Aries and enters Taurus.  When the Moon’s chilling in Taurus, it's time to channel your inner slow-living guru. Picture yourself with a cozy blanket, some snacks, and a budget spreadsheet—living the dream, right? Taurus loves luxury, so treat yourself, but don’t go overboard. Balance that bubble bath with some adulting: plant a few flowers, tackle those to-do lists, and practice patience. If you can finish a task and savor chocolate, you’re officially winning at life.
Recommended:  Everything and then Some (Wicked Witch Mojo)

Friday, November 15, 2024
Saturn Direct in Pisces:  Before the Full Moon occurs in Taurus later in the day, Saturn turns direct in Pisces. Saturn in Pisces means it’s time to get your dreamy, emotional self in order. Think of it like trying to organize a cloud—it's tricky, but doable. Time to slap some structure on those creative ideas, finally stick to that meditation routine, and maybe learn how to say “no” without feeling like a villain. Sure, balancing logic and intuition is like herding cats, but Saturn’s here to remind you that adulting can be spiritual, too.
Recommended:  GTFO (Saturn – Astro Magic)

Monday, November 25, 2024
The Moon in Libra:  We start the week with the Moon moving through fair-and-balanced Libra. When the Moon’s in Libra, it’s all about balancing your life—like juggling relationships, beautifying your space, and figuring out how to avoid awkward confrontations. Step one: channel your inner diplomat and make peace with people. Step two: spruce up your place and maybe even yourself. Step three: reflect on how you’ve been spending your time (without spiraling into an existential crisis). Oh, and if you’re socializing, charm everyone with your dazzling wit!

Tuesday, November 26, 2024
Mercury Rx in Sagittarius:  For the last time in 2024, Mercury will turn retrograde in Sagittarius. Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius is like that moment when your GPS says “recalculating.” It’s time to review your big plans, double-check travel bookings, and rethink your worldview—because you might realize you’ve been aiming for Bali when you meant Berlin. Reconnect with old friends, but maybe hold off on blurting out too much “truth” (Sagittarius loves that blunt honesty!). Slow down, and remember: it’s all about refining, not rushing into the next adventure.
