10th - 11th November 2007

In this immediate post New Moon atmosphere tensions will still be running high with increased nervous restlessness. In addition there may be feelings of unease or trouble settling so that difficulties and problems will all appear magnified. Similarly there may be apprehension and concern even over trivial matters and these worries may quickly multiply.

Once again there is the potential for contentious encounters with argumentative behaviour with the risk of conflict, volatile expression or even violence. Indeed there may be a sizeable degree of animosity and it may be easy to cause offence as there will be an especial sensitivity to personal criticism.

Under these circumstances it may feel harder to get going and one may easily be distracted by escapist inclinations that will feel difficult to resist. Indeed there may be considerable pressure to take the edge off the atmosphere, perhaps by drinking more than usual. If so then it should be warned that the effects of alcohol will be magnified at this time and even moderate quantities may lead to the release of difficult or objectionable moods and feelings. Other stress busting remedies may involve retail therapy or comfort eating and throughout this current New Moon period there will be an intense need for reassurance.

Some may find themselves prone to bouts of melancholia or heightened pessimism. These may be interspersed with other more determined feelings with firm plans and ambitions, that may at first give way to prodigious effort only to quickly lapse into doubts and misgivings. If this is the case then the likely cause is the long standing opposition between Uranus and Saturn which will be with us for several months to come. Eventually its effects will become absorbed and somewhat taken for granted, so that coming months may see a roller coaster of emotions that range from the highly enthusiastic and determined, to more depressive moods and emotions.

As to which of these will predominate will be largely down to personal circumstances, but it is likely that both will be present to varying degrees. It means that in the coming months forward progress will come under a barrage of doubts and pessimism, but also the influence of galvanic energy and enthusiasm that may provide a welcome boost for on going schemes and ventures.
