Ricksterscope: November 18, 2017 Daily Ricksterscope

5R’s – Incredible to 1R – Awful

We begin the day with the Moon transiting seductive and intense Scorpio. We’ll experience a New Moon in Scorpio at 3:42 AM PST. All sorts of new beginnings will be possible. It might not all be a positive effect as this New Moon stimulates the August 21, 2017 total solar eclipse point (The Great American Eclipse) by square aspect. Watch for the unexpected. The Moon is void of course after that until it enters Sagittarius at 10:59 AM PST. We’re in the mood for a weekend adventure now.
