Although it’s very difficult to predict the influence of planetary energy on a given individual without referring to his or her birth chart the following is intended only as a general guideline. For confirmation, however, you must refer to your birth chart. Based on the assessment of planetary strengths or weaknesses in your birth chart, placement of planets in your Gochar (transit) and ninefold Gochar (transit) chart and the current operating planets, the following may be applicable.

Mars-Pluto Opposition (Nov 1-6)

This upcoming 6 day period is expected to be particularly challenging for those with a Mars-Pluto opposition, conjunction, or square in their natal charts. This planetary opposition is typically highly unfavorable, with the potential for sudden and unexpected problems arising swiftly and without warning. Individuals with such planetary alignments, especially if either Mars or Pluto is active in their current Gochar (transit) charts, should exercise caution. It’s advisable to lay low, avoid making new commitments, and refrain from taking any unnecessary risks. There is also an increased likelihood of incidents involving fire or accidents related to explosive materials.

On a global scale, the possibility of sudden and undesirable events, including both natural and man-made disasters, is significant. The countries most likely to be affected during this period include Syria, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Palestine, Israel, and the United States.

Pluto-Jupiter ninefold opposition (Nov 6-11)

If Jupiter and Pluto are either in conjunction or opposition in your birth chart, and one of these planets is currently active in your Gochar (transit) chart, you may be on the brink of a transformative new era in your life. The nature of this shift will depend on the houses these planets occupy in your birth chart, signifying a profound change in that particular area. Prepare to face new challenges, as well as to reap the rewards that come with this shift. Embracing these changes with an open mind will help navigate this new phase.

On a collective level, we may see significant transformations in religious, academic, and social arenas. While the initial wave of change may bring confusion and even chaos, it is likely that most people will ultimately welcome these shifts and adapt to the new landscape, potentially finding it rewarding in the long run.

Neptune-Rahu ninefold sextile (Neptune-Ketu ninefold trine) (Nov 7-23)

For those with a well-placed Neptune in their birth chart, especially if she is in trine with either of the lunar nodes (Rahu or Ketu), and if any of these planets (Neptune, Rahu, or Ketu) are currently active in their Gochar (transit) chart, this period is likely to bring significant positive experiences. You may feel an increase in self-confidence, heightened intuitive power, and a general sense of well-being. This is a time when everything around you may seem to align, bringing joy and inner peace.

On a collective level, this period is also expected to be very favorable for Russia and China, with positive developments in both political and social arenas. Technological advancements, inventions, and discoveries are likely to thrive, marking progress in various fields. Spiritual and religious activities may spread positive energy, fostering a healthier and more harmonious environment around us.

Saturn-Jupiter ninefold quincunx (Nov 10-15)

The Jupiter-Saturn ninefold quincunx is likely to be challenging for those whose natal charts show these planets unfavorably placed. This period may bring frustration, loss of motivation, insecurity, a lack of direction, and general unhappiness. However, this quincunx can also be seen as a testing phase, offering an opportunity for self-discovery. It pushes individuals to bring out their best in handling difficult situations. If you have this quincunx in your birth chart and one of these planets is currently active in your Gochar (transit) chart, it is essential to adopt a new perspective. The best approach is to stay the course with your current actions and avoid making new commitments. This phase may evoke feelings of unfairness, insecurity, and dissatisfaction, similar to other difficult times in your life.

On a collective level, religious institutions worldwide may face difficulties in conducting their activities. Controversies may arise, testing traditional moral values and causing challenges for religious authorities in maintaining the faith of their followers. This period could spark debates and question long-standing beliefs, putting religious communities to the test.

Uranus-Jupiter ninefold quincunx (Nov 18-25)

When Jupiter governs outward, material matters, and Uranus introduces sudden and intense influences, their quincunx aspect in your birth chart, especially if one of these planets is active in your transit chart, signals a period of intense self-reflection and confrontation. This phase demands close attention to your inner self. How you navigate this transformative process is up to you: you can either face it courageously, allowing for spiritual growth and deeper self-understanding, or avoid it, only to face similar frustrations later. This period offers a unique opportunity for irreversible changes in your beliefs and moral values. Although it may be challenging, overcoming this phase can represent a significant leap forward in your journey of personal growth or spiritual evolution.

On global level, world religions may face challenges as groundbreaking ideas emerge, demanding acknowledgment and response. Religious leaders who are open-minded and willing to embrace these new concepts will play a vital role in transforming the religious landscape to a higher level of understanding. Conversely, those who resist change may gradually lose influence and relevance over time.

Pluto-Rahu ninefold opposition (Pluto-Ketu ninefold conjunction) (Nov 21-29)

The Pluto-Rahu ninefold opposition is particularly unfavorable for those with this opposition or squares in their birth charts. Additionally, if the lunar node Rahu (or Ketu) or Pluto is currently influencing your life through your Gochar (transit) chart, it is advisable to take extra precautions in areas governed by these planets in your natal chart. People with this aspect should avoid taking any risks during this period. This opposition can create such intense difficulties and challenges that they may leave a lasting impact on your life. Keeping a low profile is highly recommended, as is postponing any new ventures or significant decisions until this period has passed.

On a collective level, there is a heightened risk of natural accidents and calamities occurring worldwide during this time.

Pluto-Neptune ninefold quincunx (Nov 28  – Dec 26)

If you have a quincunx, square, or opposition of Pluto with Neptune in your birth chart, and either of these planets is active in your Gochar (transit) chart, you are likely to experience subtle setbacks due to deceptive or confusing surroundings. Such planetary aspects can create a strong force of illusion, leading to internal and external confusion. During this time, it can be challenging to remain calm, and the best course of action is to avoid starting anything new and simply endure the situation with patience.

On a collective level, this planetary alignment may result in the outbreak of violence and terrorist activities, particularly in Russia, Ukraine, and the Middle East, with Syria, Iraq, Israel, and the Palestinian regions being the most affected. Additionally, both natural and man-made disasters are likely. Some Eastern European countries, Ukraine, Russia, and China may also experience political and social upheaval during this period.

Neptune-Jupiter ninefold conjunction (Nov 29 – Dec 3)

For individuals with a conjunction of Jupiter and Neptune in their birth charts, and if either of these planets is influencing them through their transit charts, expect a profound transformation of beliefs and moral values. This period heralds irreversible change and marks a quantum leap in the journey of self-discovery and evolution. Embrace this time with openness and vulnerability, as it brings rejuvenation and a positive force into your life. Enjoy the process of growth and renewal.

On the global stage, world religions may face challenges from groundbreaking ideas that demand attention. Religious leaders who are open-minded and ready to listen and act on fresh concepts will play a crucial role in transforming our religious landscape to a new level. Those who resist change may gradually fade away over time, while those who embrace innovation will lead the way forward.

Saturn-Rahu ninefold opposition (and Ketu-Saturn ninefold conjunction) (Nov 30 – Dec 7)

The occurrence of the Saturn-Rahu ninefold opposition can be quite challenging for those who have this opposition in their birth charts. If the lunar node Rahu (or Ketu), or Saturn is also active in your Gochar (transit) chart, it’s essential to take extra precautions in the areas of life influenced by these planets in your natal chart. Avoid taking any risks during this time, as the opposition can bring significant difficulties and hardships that may leave a lasting impact. The best approach is to stay low key, avoid starting new ventures, and postpone important matters until this period passes.

On a collective level, this opposition may trigger social or political unrest in countries like Russia or China. In the United States, it may also be a turbulent time for the Republican Party, where caution and prudence are advised for members of the party during this phase.
