    Let's find alien life in the waters of Jupiter's moon, Europa! No, really, let's have a look. NASA hasn't announced a date yet, but October 2024 is the speculative launch window for the Europa Clipper mission. The mission aims to analyze Europa's habitability by studying its ice shell, subsurface water, and ocean properties, assessing the ocean's habitability through its composition and chemistry, and examining surface features and areas of high scientific interest.

    Here's a great book on the topic: ALIEN OCEANS: The search for life in the depths of space https://amzn.to/4b6erLz

    Annular solar eclipses aren't so dramatic as total eclipses, but they're still worth pulling out your sun-filtering goggles so you can witness a ring of light around the darkened moon in midday. The Sun's corona will be fully hiden for those of you lurking in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of South America, parts of southern Chile, and Argentina.

    In 2024, a second quarter moon means dark skies in the early evening. You might also catch some meteors on subsequent days. The radiant point for the Draconid meteor shower almost coincides with the head of the constellation Draco the Dragon in the northern sky. That’s why you can view the Draconids best from the Northern Hemisphere. The Draconid shower is a real oddity, in that the radiant point stands highest in the sky as darkness falls. That means that, unlike many meteor showers, more Draconids are likely to fly in the evening hours than in the morning hours after midnight. This shower is usually a sleeper, producing only a handful of languid meteors per hour in most years. But watch out if the Dragon awakes! In rare instances, fiery Draco has been known to spew forth many hundreds of meteors in a single hour.

    The Draconids is a minor meteor shower producing only about 10 meteors per hour. It is produced by dust grains left behind by comet 21P Giacobini-Zinner, which was first discovered in 1900.

    This is your second once-in-a-lifetime chance to spot Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinan-Atlas). As the comet makes its closest approach to Earth, opportunities to spy it will flip from the pre-dawn to the early-evening.

    As soon as it's dark, look west, low on the horizon. You might have to gain some elevation if your horizon is obstructed. If you can't see the comet directly, try using your peripheral vision (or binoculars).

    Astrophotographers: note that this comet is FAST. Relative to the Earth, it's cruising through our solar system at 81 kilometers per second. The rotation of the stars will seem slow in comparison!

    This is the closest supermoon of the 4 supermoons in 2024.

    Known as the Hunters Moon because at this time of year the leaves are falling and the game is fat and ready to hunt.

    In 2024, the waning gibbous moon will block out the fainter meteors.

    On a dark, moonless night, the Orionids exhibit a maximum of about 10 to 20 meteors per hour, peaking on the night of the 21st and morning of the 22nd.

    These fast-moving meteors sometimes produce bright fireballs, which might be able to overcome a moonlit glare. If you trace these meteors backward, they seem to radiate from the Club of the famous constellation Orion the Hunter.

    The Orionids is produced by dust grains left behind by comet Halley, which has been known and observed since ancient times.

    Scorpio (♏) is the eighth astrological sign in the Zodiac. It spans the 210-240th degree of the zodiac, between 207.25 and 234.75 degree of celestial longitude, an area which the Sun transits on average between October 23 and November 22 each year, linked to the constellation of Scorpius.
    In sidereal astrology, the sun currently transits the constellation of Scorpius from November 16 to December 15 (approximately).
    An individual born under the influence of Scorpio may be called a Scorpio or a Scorpian.

    (Water) ruled by Pluto – Increases awareness of psychic power. Ends connections. Death, sex, taxes, inheritances, transformation. Ambition, heightened sensitivity, and things in which are hidden, divination, matters of transformation and desire, life changes, sexual fantasies, psychic growth; healing of the reproductive organs, bladder, urinary system, colon, prostate, coccyx.

    Scorpio is the keeper of secrets, and a good time to try and unlock occult wisdom through divination and ritual. It is also a very fertile sign and a good time to work on fertility and sex magick. Matters pertaining to deceit, trustworthiness, and things hidden are best dealt with now. Scorpio is the sign of ambition, and spells for personal promotion work well at this time. Ruled by Pluto, the sign is linked to the work of the dead, and conditions for solid magick for the spirit world are optimal. This transit is very compatible with almost all lunar spellwork.
