There is something even spookier than Halloween ghosts and ghouls... It's Mars opposite Pluto! This transit invites passion - in all its forms. You might feel motivated by your anger or inspired by a deep creative burning in your soul.

Luckily this New Moon in Scorpio also gives us a fresh slate. The choices you make this week may have a lasting impact.

This is a bonus episode answering the question that everyone is asking me! I also answer the question, "What's a Solar Return?" I'll walk you through some of the things I'm watching in Kamala's chart and in the cosmos.

The Sun enters Scorpio and the season of all things spooky begins! Scorpio season kicks off with a grand trine in water that may flood you with emotion. Lots of water in the sky can offer opportunities for deeper connections, but it may cause you to be self-indulgent. Scorpio season also tends to bring up power struggles and control issues, especially this year with the Sun squaring Pluto at the start, but this is a great aspect for putting your attention on something you can control.

This time of year is when the veil is thinnest between the material realm and the spirit realm. With all of these planets in water in the heavens, you might feel overwhelmed by empathy or even intuitive impulses. I share some of my favorite and simple ways to cleanse your energy on this week's episode. Note: I don't think spiritual practices have to be complex or tedious to be effective.

We're all feeling on edge, and perhaps exhausted, thanks to that intense Full Moon last week. Calibrate your energy so you have bandwidth for the possible bursts of inspiration or breakthroughs that could show up on Thursday when Mars sextiles Uranus.

It's a full week, with a Full Moon in Aries amping up your sensitive feelings. Assume everyone you see is a walking open emotional wound. The Full Moon in Aries is joined by Chiron (the wounded healer dwarf planet/asteroid) and squaring Mars in Cancer. This alone makes us all feel impatient, on edge, and passive-aggressive. Before the Full Moon arrives Venus opposes Uranus inviting you to take a new approach or angle to the same old emotional patterns. I know it's not easy but Uranus is the planet that forces us to adapt and make changes.

This week might feel like you're in cosmic limbo. We're digesting the emotional content of the Lunar Eclipse last week and preparing for the direct and decisive energy of the eclipse next week.

In between this week, we have a grand trine in Earth, thanks to Mercury inhabiting the late degrees of Virgo. It might feel like you have clarity and focus once again. But Mercury is also opposing Neptune, making the time feel malleable. The Sun went through this same journey last week as he connected with all three outer planets - Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.

When the Sun and Mercury connect with these transcendent planets, we can experience lasting change and transformation.

One eclipse down, one to go!

The week wraps up with the Sun entering Libra, aka the Fall Equinox. In between, we've got a full week of notable planetary transits. Most importantly, take care of yourself. Focus on the basics of self-care: I'm talking water, food, sleep, and feeling connected to the Earth. It will make it easier to tune into the cosmic messages the eclipses are delivering.
