Inner Compass: A North + South Node Course
In this week's episode of Soul Archaeology, Astrologer, Quantum + Somatic Healer and Transformational Guide, Ali Ofstedal explores the Scorpio New Moon and the growing conjunction between Mars, Jupiter, and the South Node in Leo. This configuration brings our attention to the identities, beliefs, desires, and familiar patterns we've become attached to, particularly where our need for recognition, certainty, or control is preventing our evolution.
With Mercury reaching its cazimi in Scorpio and Venus retrograde forming a sextile to Jupiter, we're also examining the unconscious narratives shaping our sense of self and our relationships. As both Mercury and Venus approach their direct stations, this week opens a powerful examination of the ways we defend familiar versions of ourselves.
In this episode:
• Venus retrograde in Libra sextile Jupiter in Leo
• Mercury cazimi in Scorpio and the illumination of unconscious patterns
• The Scorpio New Moon at 16° on November 8
• The New Moon square Mars, Jupiter, and the South Node in Leo
• Jupiter approaching its conjunction with the South Node on November 11
• Mars approaching its conjunction with Jupiter on November 16
• The Leo Aquarius evolutionary axis and our attachment to identity
• Egoic conditioning, defensiveness, and the need to be right
• The somatic experience of identity threat and psychological transformation
• Venus and Mercury approaching their November 13 direct stations

In this week's episode of Soul Archaeology, Astrologer, Quantum + Somatic Healer and Transformational Guide, Ali Ofstedal explores Venus retrograde's return to Libra and her opposition to Chiron retrograde in Aries. Following her descent and rebirth in Scorpio, Venus brings our unconscious attachment patterns into the relational field, illuminating wounds around rejection, abandonment, autonomy, and our capacity to maintain a coherent sense of self within connection.
With Mercury retrograde in Scorpio, we're also examining the memories, interpretations, and survival strategies that shape our relationships. This week brings the Aries Libra evolutionary axis into focus as we continue a much longer process of understanding how we love, attach, communicate, and cultivate intimacy.
In this episode:
• Venus retrograde returning to Libra after her Scorpio descent
• Venus opposite Chiron retrograde at 28° Aries
• The Aries Libra evolutionary axis and the relationship between self and other
• Attachment conditioning, rejection, and abandonment wounds

In this week's episode of Soul Archaeology, Astrologer, Quantum + Somatic Healer and Transformational Guide, Ali Ofstedal explores the Autumn Equinox and a highly activated Full Moon at 3° Aries. As we cross into Libra season and the descent months, the balance between light and dark opens a new chapter of interiority, release, relationship, and transformation.

With so much of the chart interconnected, this lunation brings collective transformation into the personal field through our instincts, relationships, boundaries, anger, choices, and use of life force.
In this episode:
• The Autumn Equinox and crossing the threshold into the descent
• Libra season and the developmental relationship between self and other
