The Sky Letter reads the energies of the whole period, from one lunation to the next. Below it, the daily reading covers what is particular to this day within that period.
The Sky Letter — Full Moon in Taurus
Full Moon in Taurus · 26 October → New Moon in Scorpio · 9 November
This fortnight asks for a clear look at what is being held on to, and for releasing what has run its course before reaching for anything new. The Full Moon in Taurus on 26 October squares Pluto in Aquarius, and within hours the Sun's square to Pluto turns exact. The Taurus Moon wants to keep what it has, with some possessiveness; Pluto presses for change at the root. The Full Moon is the point where a cycle's work either comes into focus or shows where it failed. Here what comes into focus is attachment: which ties still serve, and which have hardened.

The Moon enters Virgo today and becomes the apex of a yod with Neptune in Aries and Pluto in Aquarius, two slow bodies in sextile. The yod's two long legs are quincunxes, an aspect modern practice reads and the classical tradition does not count. For a day at most, a broad, generation-wide pull towards change works through the Moon, in Virgo's terms: one task done carefully, something broken repaired and kept. If efforts keep going wrong, or self-criticism turns harsh, that is the quincunx's discomfort, and Virgo's precision answers it one correction at a time. The Moon's square to Uranus in Gemini pits that care against impatience: bottled up, the impatience mounts; put to a new method, it turns inventive. Its trine to Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn makes an unmet wish easy to turn into a practical step, and as easy to leave alone.
