You made it through eclipse season last month, but there’s still some drama ahead! November’s astrology delivers shocks and surprise, Mercury Retrograde, and so much more! We begin the month in the midst of Scorpio season. No matter your own zodiac sign, this time encourages you to accept and embrace some of the feelings you’ve avoided. This is a season for healing and transformation!
The month begins with a New Moon in Scorpio on November 1. New Moons usher in new beginnings, but they also require you to surrender and let go—and this message is emphasized when the Moon is in Scorpio, the sign of transformation. This New Moon lends you the emotional maturity to make peace with your past and accept what you cannot change. You may choose to embark a new healing journey or reach a new level of self-awareness.
You’re ready to get moving when Mercury in Scorpio teams up with Mars in Cancer on November 2. This helps you move forward with a plan, communicate boundaries, or channel your emotions through a creative outlet. Later in the day, Mercury in Scorpio mingles with Pluto in Capricorn, inspiring you to dive deeper. This is a beautiful day for healing conversations and appreciating your own transformation. Later on the same day, Mercury enters Sagittarius, which can find everyone putting their foot in their mouth! You might find yourself caught in a debate, studying something new, or even booking some travel.
On November 3, Mars in Cancer stares down Pluto in Capricorn, bringing tension, conflict, and power struggles. Later on the same day, Mars enters Leo, where it will be retrograde next month. This connection between Mars and Pluto will happen three times over the next few months. This first connection will foreshadow themes and storylines that will continue to unfold into early next year, so pay close attention. When Mars and Pluto face off, power is a central theme and toxic dynamics can pop up. You may need to set strong boundaries or even walk away from something or someone. But after Mars has severed the connection with Pluto and is moving through Leo, this is a great time to go after who and what you want! Spend time working on your confidence and focusing on creative projects.
On the same day, Venus in Sagittarius sits across the sky from Jupiter in Gemini. These two lucky planets can offer you grace and understanding, but they can also inflate egos and lead to overindulgence. The following day, on November 4, the Sun in Scorpio links up with Saturn in Pisces. You might gain recognition for some of your hard work, display your mature side, or discuss commitments and expectations.
Relationships feel so confusing when Venus in Sagittarius bumps into Neptune in Pisces on November 9. People may project their feelings onto you and you may do the same to them! This can kick up insecurities and anxiety in your relationships. You may find yourself putting someone on a pedestal and missing a red flag. Try to avoid making important decisions today. Venus, the planet of connection and relationships, enters Capricorn on November 11, and you’re ready to get serious. This can be an important time to share your plans for the future with a lover and get on the same page. Everyone is craving commitment!
Communication feels tense when Mercury in Sagittarius rams into Saturn in Pisces on November 12. You could learn some disappointing news, deal with grumpy people, or feel stuck today. Don’t try to solve all your problems at once. Saturn, the planet of limitation, karma, and boundaries, ends its retrograde on November 15. After this, you may be ready to integrate some new wisdom you’ve learned over the past few months. Take a moment to reflect on your boundaries. Could some of your relationships or contracts benefit from readjustments?
The Full Moon in Taurus on November 15 sends a shockwave to your sense of security. Maybe you’re ready to pursue a new income stream or you’re making an impromptu purchase. You’re feeling ready to take a risk when the Sun in Scorpio locks eyes with Uranus in Taurus on November 16. You’re craving more freedom and stepping into a more authentic version of yourself. Watch out for people promising you the world when Mercury in Sagittarius sits across the sky from Jupiter in Gemini on November 18. This can be a great day to discuss your beliefs, learn new things, or receive some lucky news.
On the same day, the Sun in Scorpio syncs up with Neptune in Pisces, lending soothing and compassionate energy to the day. You may feel more in tune with the universe around you. Pluto, the planet of power and transformation, enters Aquarius on November 19. Since March 2023, Pluto has been hovering back and forth between Capricorn and Aquarius. Now, Pluto will move through Aquarius, staying in this sign until 2043!
The Sun enters Sagittarius on November 21, delivering a vibe shift. No matter your own zodiac sign, Sagittarius season finds you in a more outgoing mood and makes you eager to connect with your friends. The next four weeks are a great time to expand your understanding of the world around you, push yourself outside of your comfort zone, and sign up for a class or two. Later in the day, the Sun in Sagittarius connects with Pluto in Aquarius, helping you feel proud of your own growth. You could also learn some transformative news or have deep and meaningful encounters with others. Venus in Capricorn links up with Saturn in Pisces on November 22, which bodes well for discussing commitments or signing contracts.
Everyone’s favorite astrological event begins on November 25: Mercury Retrograde, this time in Sagittarius. Expect people to be more argumentative and stubborn over the next few weeks—yourself included! Travel delays and inconveniences are also on the menu. You’re full of energy and confidence when the Sun in Sagittarius meets with Mars in Leo on November 27. This is a great day to go after your dreams. Finally, the month wraps up with a New Moon in Sagittarius on November 30, which asks you to find a balance between work and play. This is a powerful time to connect with your voice, speak your truth, and set boundaries—even if it makes other people uncomfortable.
