Well November is a month where the theme of restructuring relationships is strong. What was broken can be fixed or at least compromises can be reached.
If we look at the two slow moving planets, Jupiter and Saturn they are connecting by reception. This means they like each other and want to please each other and will work well together.
Jupiter always brings an element of great expansive energy; he is transiting through the zodiac sign of relationships. This shows us that for the next year Jupiter will be active in all types of relationship issues.
As Jupiter loves expansive growth, this growth will take place in our relationships with others. The expansive energy of Jupiter extends to every type of relationship be it in business, friends or mere acquaintances and lovers.
We may even find ourselves making contact with people from our past. Whatever or however and with whom we meet will be significant. Even an existing partnership that feels imbalanced can be fixed.
For the astrologers reading this, Saturn when in a fire sign as he is now, is in his triplicity be it day or night. This gives him dignity and with many of the transiting planets receiving him by dignity he plays an important role this month.
For the rest of my readers Saturn promotes growth in a structured focused manner. With Saturn in Sagittarius, the growth has no boundaries. Saturn is comfortable with growth in a disciplined way, but now growth becomes disciplined with the ability to be flexible.
Guess this is why people of authority are looking for different ways to grow stability of countries and the world. Some may use this energy unwisely…Donald Trump comes to mind. Not to mention Zuma with his ever-changing policies and reshuffling of cabinet members.
As Saturn is in reception with Jupiter and follows Jupiter’s rules, this growth is within the arena of politics, higher learning and relationships of all kinds. Love relationships, culture, race, business and family relationships will challenge us in all directions with the ultimate goal of creating compatible growth.
What is evident and will be so for another year is the importance of working as a team, working together to strive for growth. If you are working hard on a relationship or partnership type of deal, by early next month you will see the benefit.
Law and all sorts of legal matters can come up when these two giants are positioned where they are. We can expect a year of excess legal action and this will extend into politics and higher education. It will be wise to consult with lawyers and make sure that contracts and matters regarding agreements are fully understood before agreeing to, or signing any binding document consult with a lawyer.
As for politics, abusing this expansive transiting energy will be to the detriment of King and country so to say. Best people in power adhere to the letter of the law, if they do not they will find themselves in all sorts of trouble. At the same time should your superiors abuse your rights, with the law on your side you will have a case.
As most of the planets are focusing on Saturn, where ever this transit is in your chart will indicate which area of your life that is truly being challenged. It is where you will be experiencing tension and where you need to direct your attention.
A Saturn transit will bring attention to what it is you really want in life and once you have accepted what it is you want, Saturn will show you how to get it. Where it is transiting through in your chart is the area you will feel a bit of fear and tension yet at the same time a hunger for growth.
The great thing right now is that the restraints have been dissolved opening us up to many opportunities to grow and expand, unlocking our deep intellect, opening our minds to greater things. Gosh this is such a great time to achieve whatever you want.
Generally what the people of the nation are working at is to try and bring stability into relationships of the people they serve. Any relationship that is philosophically or politically incorrect will create a lot of fear and tension.
What this needs is the help of a very diplomatic benefic Jupiter. In Libra Jupiter becomes sympathetic, philosophical, outgoing and liked as well as bringing about optimism and an understanding of what is wrong and right.
The problem arises when a bigoted energy creeps in and as Jupiter is in a cardinal sign energies of people can flare up with the slightest provocation and can end up acting out with a fury likened to an exploding bomb.
This brings to light the rioting students in their fees must fall strike. They want a fair deal; Jupiter in Libra wants things to be fair and balanced. Authority and the government in this case are Saturn in a sign without boundaries. Making unrealistic promises is not going to work and this will fuel the fury of the students. The solution is to make decisions that are balanced and structured to benefit both parties.
An important event:
As the month progresses we came face to face with a very challenging aspect as Jupiter squared Pluto and Venus conjuncts Pluto. This is a very intense moment of time for relationships. In some cases we may even wonder why we are attracted to the partner, lover, husband or even friend.
It is also a time where we could be attracted to people/lovers that are totally destructive. Yet the attraction and connection of another could turn out to be a very significant relationship in your life.
Then Jupiter joins in and squares Pluto and Venus bringing along a great potential for achievement and ambition as your energies run high. But a word of caution as you strive for power is that all your efforts may run into resistance and problems.
It is a time where you can earn social standing and power. But if you arrogantly tip the scale you may find yourself in conflict with a person in power.
Best to avoid any action that could lead to legal conflicts, this could turn nasty, This aspect has the ability to attract shady people, do not be tempted in any shady deals. It is not a bad time to dig deeply into your own psyche before leading others to enlightenment.
What is nice is the fact that Saturn and Jupiter are working together…to find the balance in a fair and diplomatic way. In our own lives we need to find a way to make situations with others work. When we can then the world will become a pleasant and productive place.
The desire to expand relationships starts end October and continues into as Venus connects with Saturn. Venus awakens a strong desire for political integrity.
Venus is a planet that has a strong desire component and like Saturn is in expansive Sagittarius. The desire is to grow our understanding of life and people will be high, what a brilliant month to study. Take that step and sign up for the course that has been on your mind for so long.

It is not a time to fear diplomacy, but to bring it into your daily way of life. It makes relating with others so much easier. Venus is our desire and this month our desire is to grow our relationships on many levels by understand each other.
You really need to bite back any nasty and angry words. With Mercury in Scorpio conversations can become deep and intense, but do be aware that Mercury in the sign ruled by Mars has the ability to use words as swords.
Mars is strong this month, striving to find structure and a deep understanding of law and politics. So we need to take action and develop a structured yet flexible path forward.
Transiting Saturn in very important and we need to understand the area in which it is affecting us and to conquer our fear of what Saturn is demanding form us in. Any weakness you have will be triggered. A good understand of how to use structure in an effective way, you will be able to move forward with confidence.

MEDICALLY SPEAKING
Overindulgence in all areas of life can be bad for your health. Overwork, too much food and excessive lifestyles will take their toll. This excessive stress can lead to fibromyalgia, a rheumatic condition that causes widespread pain, exhaustion, memory loss and sleep issues.
The constant tension of your muscles and stress causes abnormal chemical secretions from your brain as well as from your hormones.
Constant release of adrenaline due to a stressful A type lifestyle can become very toxic to our bodies and tissues. Some of the symptoms are rapid heart rate, high blood pressure, muscular pain, anxiety, excess sweating and weight loss.
The best way to manage this continual release of adrenalin is to cut back on the stress, take time out to relax, give the chemicals released by the adrenalin rushes a chance to normalise.
Plan your life and find ways to remove unnecessary tasks. Simplify your daily routine, meditate, swim and do yoga. A doctor once told me that a 20 minute walk every day is one of the best ways to eliminate stress and cleanse the body. If you manage the cause you will cut back the symptoms without the need of medication.
If you are drinking energy drinks and eating a diet that can give you the quick fix you need to do your work, you will land up with the above symptoms. Cut these drinks out and replace them with the correct foods.
Never skip a meal and never diet. What is needed is good solid food that is naturally grown and less refined foods. There is so much you can gain by making vegetables, whole grains, seeds, fruits, nuts and lean animal proteins the major part of your diet.
So cut back on the stressful things that you personally are responsible for having invited them into your life. Eat good sold healthy foods and take a walk everyday it really cleanses your mind.
