November 2012 Full & New Moons: Solar Eclipse in Scorpio & Lunar Eclipse in Gemini

A full moon occurs when the transit (moving) Sun and Moon are exactly opposing one another in the zodiac. It tends to signal a time of endings, culminations, and things coming to fruition. A new moon occurs when when the transit Sun and Moon are in the exact same spot in the zodiac. It tends to signal a time of new opportunities, growth, and optimism.  

For information on how the new/full moons may impact your sign, read the monthly horoscope.

November 13th 2012 Solar Eclipse in Scorpio
A solar eclipse occurs at 8:02AM ET at 21 degree 57 minutes of Scorpio. A solar eclipse is essentially an amped up new moon. In Scorpio, we'll be feeling good with the transformations that are taking place in our lives and in the world around us. Since Mercury will be retrograde at the same time and will enter Scorpio the next day, that optimism may not be very realistic. We can face sobering reality with more ease though. In fact, we want reality, no fluff or fantasy. Scorpio also rules other people's money, which could show some positive developments as far as individual's and government's financial problems. Overall, this will be an eclipse to watch, because it's in the middle of Mercury retrograde, and joins Saturn now in Scorpio as well. Should be interesting. If you're a Scorpio Sun, Moon, or late Scorpio rising, you may feels the effects of this moon most.

November 28th 2012 Lunar Eclipse in Gemini
A lunar eclipse occurs at 9:46AM ET at 6 degrees 41 minutes of Gemini. A lunar eclipse is essentially an amped up full moon. In Gemini, we could see more revolting amongst the youth. They're tired of the way things are going, and want it to end, now. Sobering news could come out regarding the state of our youth, schools, education, and communities. You could see more fighting between neighbors and neighborhoods warring. Words spoken are dripping with emotion, and we may get more upset over the things that people say. This eclipse is sextile (easy aspect) transit (moving) Uranus in Aries, so there could be some positive unexpected news or sudden developments that come along with this eclipse. If you're a Gemini Sun, Moon, or rising, you may feel the effects of this moon most.
