Yes, all three things are happening as we speak. This bodes major changes in several areas of our charts.
Whenever an outer invisible goes retrograde or direct, it's a sea change in the collective consciousness. Now that Neptune has gone direct (11:05 pm PDT 6 Nov, 7 Nov everywhere east of there) it again begins to retrace its steps over ground it's now covering for a third time.
Here's where collective consciousness again moves forward, with 26 Aquarius indelibly burned as a hot spot that will be triggered any time there's a transit to that point. There will be manifestations of Divine Power both from individuals and collectivities, so be ready, since we've all prepared for these spiritual energies to come forth in many ways for quite a while.
As Venus retrogrades back into Libra (7:07 pm PST 7 Nov, 3:07 am Greenwich 8 Nov), preparing to go direct Nov 18-19 at 28 Libra, she is much stronger than she's been in Scorpio, and this time should bring balance and perspective to the intensification of feelings and relationships we've been through the past several weeks. Finally our Taurus and Libra houses and planets will feel "more natural" in many ways, and we'll be able to use this as a platform when we must again deal with Venus in Scorpio energy during December and early January.
As Mercury slips into Sagittarius (3:43 pm PST 8 Nov, 11:43 pm Greenwich), it shifts our Gemini and Virgo sectors and planets away from Scorpionic energy into the liberating fiery energies of Sagittarius. It also begins its long term conjunction to Mars, thus beginning a blending of Aries, Gemini, Virgo, and Scorpio energies expressed through the Sagittarius filter. Expect imagination to take off, in ways that we can find practical yet inspired solutions to whatever needs to be done.
This also means that Venus and Jupiter become the final dispositors for all the other planets in the sky. That makes them the important "backdrop" energy to every other thing going on. These two are in biquintile for several weeks, promising unique interactive gifts and actions, as well as boomerangs for those who have not done what they needed to regarding these energies over the past several weeks.
So if you're feeling like the atmosphere is changing, it is. The rulers of Taurus, Gemini, Virgo, and Libra are all shifting signs, which will correspond to shifts in our own ways of regarding those areas of our charts and lives. Just one more zone of flux in an ever-changing reality!

Here I am a Libra Rising, Scorpio Sun, Mercury in Sagittarius and Neptune in Libra.
Perhaps this article explains my own intensities.

Hi Cathy - email me.
Hi Caliban - When past and present traffic merge, it can cause a bit of a jam, but also a beautiful flow.
Hi Quicksilver - You're completing a lot, even as you renew in ways that should be familiar to you. In a few months you'll have major new developments come to surface.
