November marks a turning point for us as we not only shift in energy but also in weather. The winter months are coming and with them an energetic reflection of its purpose. Like the plants and animals, now is a time to be spent in reflection.
To describe this month my spirit guides began with energy of crimson. Pulling in the teachings of Wonderland, Alice, and the Red Queen. Like Alice’s wild adventures which center around identity and seeking comprehension of this strange world – November can be best navigated when we channel the moxie of Alice.
Following the events of the last few months there can be a push, a drive towards action. But we don’t want to be like Alice leaning too far forwards and falling down the rabbit’s hole. Instead, we are brought this crimson energy to help temper us in our behavior – to seek our personal truth and discover clarity about this world.
Our tempering aligns not only with the weather, but also the energetic influence of our Universal 2 Month energy. In numerology we discover #2: pause, consideration, and re-alignment. For you tarot fans, you can look to the imagery of all the 2’s to see moments of strengthening. Rather than striking out in adventure, we are encouraged to slow down. Not in stagnation, but rather in preparation.
Jumping the gun, skipping steps – those who act too fast will find themselves lacking stability and longevity in their plans. Those who are insecure in their identity and worth are going to demonstrate themselves like the red queen, spouting “off with their heads!” without consideration or evidence. Rather than getting involved we are encouraged to leave these people to their own consequences.
Instead, spend this month utilizing our energetic theme of 2025 – that teal energy of alchemy and transmutation.
Like Alice who took in this strange world around her and utilized it to discover what she wanted, as well as learning how to operate in the world – utilize this month to gain clarity. We will witness people – people of governments, companies, even drivers show you who they are. Those who are in a healthy place will behave with level-headedness and even offer wisdom. Those unbalanced will spout riddles as unclear as, “why a raven is like a writing desk?”
What to Do With What You Discover:
Utilizing the idea of alchemy and transmutation, plus this 2 energy – we can choose to engage with life. Yes, we experience movement in life, but we are really holding space. In life, the world comes to you as you hold your spot. Then life can either happen to you or with you. This relates to authenticity, boundaries, and decisions. Life will bring you things. You get to decide to accept, or re-direct and have things flow past you.
This month we can be eager to jump headfirst into the dreams, plans, and goals which could have been set alight during October’s energy. Yet, without proper research, consideration, testing with outside interactions – we run the risk of skipping steps. This 2 energy is meant for us to pause, breathe, consider, weigh, and find balance. All of which takes strength. Through this strength we can craft a strong plan and solid foundation.
These considerations not only apply to our plans but also our behavior. To engage in generosity with others – giving the benefit of the doubt, rather than jumping to conclusions. As we hold our space in life and witness this strange world, we learn about what we want in life. Also, about how this world is operating at this time. Through this knowledge we are empowered – made stronger.
Like a flowing river our decisions determine what finds a home in our arms and what gets declined. If you assimilate the learning, re-direct avoidable unwantedness away (cut cords, smudge, state “no, thank you.”), you work with life on a conscious level.
Then you can be like Alice and find friends, fun, and power even in the strangest of places at the strangest of times. So, remember this month – pause/consider. Then decide when things cross your path, to accept or decline. To work with life to experience a splendid month!
