Forecast for Wednesday, November 11th
Virgo/Libra Balsamic Moon
ॐOracular Mantra—a breathing space between Not Yet and No Longer…
It is sourced within 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 that we are assured that “love is patient, love is kind… it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud; it does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs; love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth; it always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres… [that] love never fails.”
It always trusts… always hopes, always perseveres.
Only ten minutes after 8am here on the west coast the moon moves from Virgo to Libra, passing from the dutiful realm of solitude and contemplation, and meditative healing, through the shadowy, solarly Scorpionic route within your own personal Underworld, to the lunarly realms of lessons learned through the wonder that is love, harmony, and reciprocation.
❝Until we can receive with an open heart, we are never really giving with an open heart.❞
——Brené Brown
One cannot experience love if one is not open to it.
It is through this time of year, when the sun moves through Scorpio, that we all have more inclination to turn inward, to go within ourselves, into the dark and shadowy depths, to understand a bit more of who we really are… to evolve into our better selves. It is through this time of year, when the sun highlights the shadows of Scorpio, that we can innocently and unintentionally close ourselves off from others.
One must open to love and openly give it—without expectation—before love can ever be received in return.
And when one is even willingly walking through the darkness of one’s own undoing, one’s own shadows, and one’s own fears—through one’s own inner Underworld—this is when it is most essential for one to possess love within one’s heart, however hardened it may be… to remain open, despite it all in all directions—to remain even the tiniest bit open, and ready to receive.
One cannot experience love if one is not open to it, or it is experienced purely fleetingly, or lustfully… and thus, when the moon is in Libra, this lesson “cannot err in either direction—” this being: that it cannot be too open or entirely closed off.
Either way—metaphorically—the door of your heart is ajar…
❝Reciprocal accountability, or criticism—the only known antidote to error.❞
——David Brin
Libran energies demand that balance—and it’s likely that today—you are too, demanding balance, or should.
Keep in mind, too, that we’re inching ever so slowly and deliberately toward a new moon in Scorpio on Saturday—yet another lunarly event which emphasizes an intention in action through the very celestially motivated finale of No Longer while also celebrating a cosmic beckoning toward the beginnings of Not Yet…
This intention in action “must bring beauty to those who seek [your] temple, but it must also be a place of justice, where neither [you] nor they are mistreated, devalued, or damaged through poor judgement… it’s a balance that is perfect divine love when it’s done right.”
This is implied toward two individuals, coming together in union, or it could also be implied toward the coming together of No Longer and Not Yet, here in the Now—either way, this coming together needs to be divinely ordained… and will be.
❝Every man is a divinity in disguise, a god playing the fool.❞
——Ralph Waldo Emerson

So I suppose the question the heavens ask of you today: are you valuing your own worth and ideals—and space, time, and selfhood—in a balancing way that allows you to be truly and wholly you, but also in a way that surrenders a bit of your ego to allow for love to actually be received as intended?
Keep in mind, here too, that this receiving you’re either experiencing or allowing space for—is true love and sometimes this love feels romantic, or sexual in nature, but do not distract yourself with any limitations… sometimes love feels like breathing room—especially in Libra—or balanced give-and-take in some meaningful area in your life.
❝When sadness surrounds you,
Take a pause to think,
Life is an echo,
What you give is what you get.❞
——Manishi Gupta
Remember, too, that whatever is unfolding for you now, opening to receive you as you reciprocate in kind, to receive—that this energy always trusts… always hopes, always perseveres… and, so too, should you in its honor.
What you’re seeking is seeking you—but specificity is a detail, quite literally. It’s also likely that through yesterday’s Venus/Mars opposition, you were able to identify at least one—if not several—details which are either causing you imbalance or are simply no longer relevant or reliable… and these will need to be addressed now.
Any personal circumstances in conundrum will fall into place through the balance between discernment and openness, between personal accountability and the demanding of self-worth, and between wholly giving and truly receiving… and one must demand these on one’s own.
❝When you enter a place of stillness, you awaken the divinity within you.❞
