In episode 51 Kelly Surtees and Austin Coppock join the show to discuss the astrology forecast for the upcoming month of November 2015.

During the course of the show we cover topics such as the first Saturn-Neptune square, the beginnings of the mutable T-square, a couple of mutual receptions, and various ingresses by different planets over the course of the month.

We also point out several different dates that contain auspicious planetary alignments for starting different types of ventures and undertakings, using the principles of electional astrology.
