The BIG NEWS today is Mercury in Sagittarius (big thinker, big talker) squares Saturn Rx in Pisces (the squeeze on imagination).

Maybe it's been a while since you visited the dignity and debility page, which tells us when a planet is in its - Home, Detriment, Exaltation or Fall.

I want to make it VERY CLEAR that a planet is NOT weak or strong in these placements all by themselves because they actually need help from you to make them whatever they are going to be. Astrology allows for your free will; therefore, your response to these placements will ultimately express them to be will be weak or strong for you. It is YOUR expression, that 'you choose' whether they will be weak or strong.

For instance, the Moon is in its 'Home' placement when in the sign of Cancer. The Moon rules Cancer. I have a Moon in Capricorn, which is Cancer's opposite sign. BOOM, that makes the Moon in Capricorn in its detriment. Rat damn-it! So I make certain that I channel my Moon (emotions) appropriately into my work (Capricorn) because Capricorn is the sign of work. The Moon will work for me in this case.

Now in my personal Life, I need to make certain that I do not cause this placement to be weak and come across too hard, skeptical and pessimistic, which are Capricorn traits. In my work I can come at someone with the 2 x 4 and knock some sense into them. My clients do not pay me to sugar coat. My clients want some answers so they can get the best results.

Now, in my personal Life, it's a completely different story. I need to eat a 5 lb. bag of sugar before I say what needs to be said. (winky wink) The Moon in Capricorn 'works' for me with 'work', and rest of the time I have to sweeten myself up.

And so it goes, the placement of Mercury in Sagittarius is in its detriment because Mercury naturally rules Gemini, which naturally opposes Sagittarius. Mercury also co-rules Virgo, which naturally squares Sagittarius. Mercury is in a double-whammy in the sign of Sagittarius. Remember this if you have a birthday between November 2, 2024 and December 15, 2024 because Mercury in Sagittarius will be in your 2024-2025 Solar Return.

Now let's take Mercury in Sagittarius (detriment) and square it to Saturn Rx in Pisces. Saturn takes off his belt and wraps it around Mercury thereby limiting its output. Well, you can look at it two (2) ways.

1) Thank God communication is being held back and limited by Saturn's belt because Mercury is in a double-whammy detriment.

2) Communicating during this time or with those who have Mercury square Saturn in their Solar Return may prove to be impossible because their thinking, communication and input/output is so limited that it has become narrow-minded. The doors are pretty much locked to possibility. Read the quote on the Mercury square Saturn Astro Meme. "The most learned (educated or experienced) are often the most narrow-minded." You know, because they know so much. I say that last sentence with a hefty dose of sarcasm and smart-assi-ness.

For one to think that there is no other possibility, way, escape, or process is quite honestly, down right ridiculous. I don't know if I would even know how to think like that. It's kinda like giving up and refusing to budge. Taking that position pretty much refuses to think. It's very fixed, stubborn and settled-in. Will you be caught up in this square and become stuck in 'limiting beliefs' or 'limiting thoughts'?

There is something I say a lot and that is, "Everything is on the table, until you take off the table." Simply taking something off the table just because you thought that something was one thing, and not something else, or because this and that, or the other, or whatever, is not enough to take something off the table, just because you 'thought' something was one way. That's not enough.

When everything is on the table, it stays on the table until it is played completely out. All possibilities still remain. You don't take a possibility off the table just because you are depressed about it, sad about it, or because you can't see another way.

Think of the idiom, "All roads lead to Rome." This means there are many different ways to achieve the same result. There are many paths to your destination. Perhaps you have a deadline to meet, well there are many ways to achieve and reach that end. Take your pick.

Mercury square Saturn, especially under the umbrella of Sagittarius and Pisces can create a lot of talking, a lot of imagination, a lot of set-up, a lot of swimming in circles, but then ultimately poo-poo'd for one reason or another. NOOOOOOOOO! "Everything is on the table, until you take off the table." Why take something off the table when it still holds possibility. Stop being so close-minded.

Yesterday my friend Amy and I went thrifting. I was looking for a bedroom dresser that I could convert into a work area for my gardening tools, ceramic pots, seeds, etc. This dresser would go in the garage. While the dresser might look out-of-place in the garage, my plan is to paint or refinish it, change out the hardware, pull out the drawers and create open spaces, etc. Amy was the perfect person to go thrift furniture shopping with because this is her thing. She rehabs houses, and I mean guts them and restores them herself.

Well we hit the 'mothership' of furniture thrift stores. We found a dresser that not only gave me the flat work space I want, but it had drawers and doors, and a hutch with more even more doors and shelves. It would have never been something I would want for inside the house, but repurposing for my gardening, it was perfect. So I bought this massive dresser for $125 and she bought a crystal chandelier for $14 that she can put in one of her rehabbed homes or she can clean it up and sell it for probably $500. But we couldn't find any mason jars for canning. (winky wink)

And get this, we found these treasures yesterday, during this aspect of Mercury square Saturn because while this aspect is exact today, it came into the 'orb of influence' on November 6, 2024 and it will end on November 20, 2024. So it was pretty close to exact yesterday.

Further, imagine a Gemini (me) naturally ruled by Mercury, with a Pisces (her) naturally ruled by Neptune, out scouring through stuff and using our imaginations. Her creativity is simply off-the-charts! I'm super-focused, almost hyper-focused, like a bee on a flower, or sometimes like a Jack Russell Terrier on a pant leg. Hey, I like what I like, even still I'm pretty dang open-minded and open to possibility because I live by and believe in the words, "Everything is on the table, until you take off the table." Until you can really really really rule it out, everything is on the table. Yes, Gemini and Pisces square each other, and yet we dance well together.

By the way folks, as an Astrologer, I have been following the Natal Chart of - Donald Trump, The Donald, DJT, Candidate Trump, President Trump since the 1980s. Why? Because it is very important that you follow someone who has similar aspects as yourself, especially if they are successful. We both have Mars in Leo, and a Sun trine Jupiter. He is the one who has been saying since I can remember, all the way back to the 80's, "Everything is on the table, until you take off the table." And he still says it to this very day.

So folks, during this hard-lined narrow-minded aspect, do your best to remain open and leave it all on the table. Everything stays until you have exhausted every possibility, even through your crazy emotions. Leave it, until you have squeezed the last bit of juice out of the possibility. Remain open minded.
