Your Monthly Horoscope
Astrology Basics:
At the moment you were born, the planets, the moon, the sun, and the star constellations that are the 12 signs of the Zodiac, were all in a specific place (whether it was daylight or night!). The same force (type of gravity) that holds the planets in their orbit around the sun, and which holds all the stars in their specific locations in our galaxy, effects you here on earth. The combined forces from all those bodies in the universe effect each of us on the earth in a very real and significant way. All of those forces also effect each other, depending on the angle at which they meet and depending upon the way that the qualities of each universal body interact with the other, which then effects you in a particular way.
The way these forces are aligned with each other, and their nearness to you at the moment of your birth, determine what your basic personality is like – the framework of who you are, by which everything else you experience after that moment will be measured. These forces determine how you will be inclined to perceive your world and react to your world, in other words they determine the framework of your personality.
You still have absolute free will, given to you by the Creator, so you can be whoever you want to be. Astrology helps you see and understand your basic personality makeup, so that you can use that information to see and experience your hidden talents, see what motivates you in order to use that knowledge to lead you to fulfillment, and see how to overcome whatever weakness or self-doubt you may have.
Horoscope for November 2024
You’ll get a more accurate horoscope if you read your Rising sign, and your Moon sign, as well as your Sun sign. Here’s how
Your Sun sign represents your Self, your way of being in the world. It can represent both the ego (mental) self and the higher Self (soul purpose). It symbolizes your will and sense of vitality. Your Sun sign horoscope will tell you what these areas of your self will encounter this month.
Your Rising sign represents your outer mask, the self you show to others. It symbolizes how you appear to others, how others perceive you, in your true interaction with the world. Your Rising sign horoscope will tell you what to expect in these areas of your self this month.
Your Moon sign symbolizes your personal self, your feelings, your subconscious. It represents how you relate to others, how you have nurturing relationships with others, your intuition, your spiritual self, your sense of security, and your habits. The Moon symbolizes your feminine, nurturing side (we all have one). The Moon also indicates the type of partner you will attract, since it represents your emotional self. Your Moon sign horoscope will show you what these areas of your self will encounter this month.
What awaits you with the November month, Aries, is another month of ups and downs, a roller coaster, really. This is partly based on the fact that your ruler, Mars, your ruler, is getting ready to station and turn retrograde beginning on December 6th, and hence is moving quite slowly these November days, increasingly so as December nears. Not to be discounted is the amazing New Moon at the very beginning of the month, featuring a partile or same-degree opposition between Mars in the final degree of Cancer and Pluto in the final degree of Capricorn This Scorpio New Moon sets the stage for the remainder of November with a guarantee of transformational impact that will shake you and bake you and lead you into your next evolutionary stage. There is a factor of internal moral compass that is also in play for you right now; particularly within the developmental cycle of the first two weeks of November. It may be that events will transpire that call you to reorient in the way that you see the world around you, and your role within it. Your beliefs and worldview form a subject that is definitely up for you these late fall days, heading into the dramatic ending of the year. There is perhaps a sense of starry-eyed idealism that is present, as you grow, and that is not to be entirely discounted.

Just as November begins, the Scorpio New Moon of the 1st brings attention to the sector of your chart that relates to your intimate and business partnerships and the agreements or contracts that bind you willingly or unwillingly to others. Mars, your ruling planet, is transiting through the last degree of Cancer and forms in this New Moon configuration a very close opposition with Pluto in the last degree of Capricorn before entering Leo on the 3rd. The transformational impact lasts therefore the entire month, and relates to both your career and professional life, and as well to your social situation, including groups and friendships that you favor, and also your future plans. This month is a delicate time, when your thoughts can be swayed by your fears, and yet also by your lofty goals, your imagination, or your enthusiasm for an ideal world that you would like to see emerging over subsequent decades.
With transformational Pluto so greatly highlighted in this New Moon, you may be feeling as well that an important chapter is coming to a close although you could still be processing what the long-term implications of such changes entail. On the one hand you could experience a kind of exuberance thanks to the new possibilities emerging on the horizon; while on the other, you could be feeling some apprehension towards the unknown that lies ahead. Scorpio Season can bring important realizations and this one in particular. Whether these are internal or external, there is something poignant about shedding your old skin to take a leap of faith.
From the 4th to the 5th, Venus trines the Chiron/ Eris midpoint in your sign, which could bring up thoughts about early childhood wounding that could be buried away from your consciousness, deep in your psyche, and perhaps showing up as factors in interpersonal situations. There could be, as well, creative ideas for bridging, integrating, and healing such issues.
On the 11th, Venus’ entry into Capricorn might bring your key relationships further into the picture, or perhaps highlight a tension between your personal needs versus what is expected from you. You could feel pressured to show up a certain way in the world, of find that intimate partners contribute in unexpected ways with career objectives.
The first of three squares between Mercury in Sagittarius and Saturn in Pisces takes place on the 12th, which may emphasize a tension coming from unconscious drive for recognition. Finding the proper channels for this expression to manifest could reveal itself to be extremely creative in the long run, especially to get over any reflexes you have around self-censorship.
On November 15th, the Taurus Full Moon takes place in your sector of resources and values. You could find yourself exploring new intentions related to your principles, your internal moral commitment, or your finances. The Moon forms a close conjunction with Uranus in Taurus, so that surprises may abound, together with unexpected revelations or epiphanies. What you value and what you attribute worth to, including yourself and your skills, are really up for you right now. There could be benefits coming from your ability to adapt, improvise or take a chance with something unknown, and you may have to let go of a need to understand all the potential outcomes and just go with the flow.
On the 17th and 18th, Mercury opposes Jupiter in Gemini, in your sector of communications and learning, and you might feel an intellectual shift toward a more positive frame of mind. The Sun simultaneously in trine with Neptune could also bring on a dreamy sense of insubstantiality to contribute to this mood.
On the 19th, Pluto enters Aquarius and the next morning the Moon enters Leo, opposing Pluto, so that for these few hours there could be a sense of how far you have come in feeling your way through whatever changes you are currently dealing with, along, perhaps, with reflecting on how far you still have to go.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st forming a supportive aspect with Pluto newly in Aquarius. Your perspectives could start to feel more coherent and broad; and this may allow you to see new options you hadn’t considered, especially in terms of goals and concrete future plans.
Mercury stations retrograde on November 25th and this could be a time to sit back and reflect. This might also be a time of mechanical and communications breakdowns and missed connections. It is good not to “push the river” at this time, lasting into mid-December, and beyond. Mercury will station once again to direct motion on December 15th, and remain in recovery for two to three weeks after that, beyond the end of the December month. The entire retrograde period may denote a period of re-orientation and reconsideration as you potentially align with new possibilities. You do well to give yourself time to assess the territory and remain patient.
This is a rather intense month for you, Taurus, having to do with important partners and the changes that they inspire in you, plus you in them. Right from the very beginning of November, with the advent of the Scorpio New Moon in your opposite sign, a deep-seated metamorphosis is going on within your partnership dynamic. This New Moon also features Mars, the ruler of your opposite sign of Scorpio, opposed to transformational Pluto. As you are coming to a fresh start for all your relationships, your commitment to social groups that you favor is growing alongside a degree of struggle with future goals. Career objectives too are in major flux this month. Issues with close partners could arise and lead to inner work. Intimacy with yourself at depth, or with concerns of early childhood wounding, may lead you to greater intimacy within your key relationships. The Ful Moon of November 15th may find you with many of these issues coming to a head, including relationship strategies, partner input that helps with impending career choices, and your evolving beliefs and worldview. Also powerful is the Mercury Retrograde through Sagittarius beginning on the 25th. This is an exciting month for progress through epiphany, as you can come to it.

The month of November arrives with a New Moon in your opposite sign of Scorpio right on the 1st which could emphasize partnerships of all kinds in the weeks ahead. There is a transformational flavor as well to this focus, and it could be that your entire relationship dynamic is changing. Taureans tend to be loyal towards those they love and this quality could be shining through your actions right now. It is also possible that your awareness about your most deeply held values may become enhanced over the progress of an active month. Because Venus, your ruler, opposes Jupiter in this New Moon, while the Sun and Moon trine Saturn, there is both optimism and stability available to you this month in the midst of, also, far more intense energies that are additionally triggered.
In this New Moon configuration, Mars in Cancer closely opposes Pluto in Capricorn which may exaggerate power dynamics in some ways over the course of the November month. You may feel like you need to get to the bottom of your or someone else’s expectations in order to clear the air; although this could be easier said than done amidst the busyness of life in general. There is quite a lot of passion implicit in this aspect which could also therefore affect the way that your relationships will evolve as the month continues to unfold.
From the 3rd to the 4th, the Sun trines Saturn more precisely, emphasizing slowing down to think things through, while from the 4th to the 5th, including Election Day here in the US, Venus trines Chiron and Eris in combination, the latter being another long-term feature of this month. This could signify that, while an optimistic tenor to the proceedings might prevail overall, since Venus remains opposed to Jupiter, there could also be some painful situations to handle in favor of our basic evolutionary intention to transcend these difficult feelings.
Venus’s entry into Capricorn on November 11th should additionally be helpful in weeks ahead, especially for things like growth and expansion through teaching, learning, traveling or more generally broadening your scope of vision.
The Full Moon in your sign takes place on November 15th and this is an important juncture, bringing up further issues of self and other. The Moon also forms a close conjunction with Uranus in Taurus which might bring surprise events of an emotional nature, or unexpected revelations. This lunation might also could clear the air somewhat as it represents a culmination of the energies set in motion at the timing of the potent New Moon from the 1st. Saturn turns direct in Pisces on the same day, which may emphasize commitment between you and a community you are part of although the benefits could be muted with Saturn also representing potential limitations there.
Pluto’s entry into Aquarius on the 19th signals the beginning of a twenty-year transit in the sector of your chart that relates to your vocation, your social role, and your participation in the world at large. Although this long transit will bring progressive transformation, you may already be feeling the changes brewing regarding your overall career or professional direction.
Your attention could turn towards your resources during the second half of November especially once the Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st, illuminating the sector of your chart that relates to the support that comes from others. Mercury turns retrograde a few days later on the 25th and will be moving retrograde in Sagittarius until December 15th and then recovering to the end of the year. This may prompt a re-evaluation of your energy investments within your many collaborations during the weeks ahead.
Needless to say, there may not be an easy solution to life’s challenges at this time but clarifying what with others what they expect from you could help get rid of some of the responsibilities you carry that may not be yours to carry in the first place.
This is an important month for you, Gemini, as you come into novel vistas on partnership understanding. The New Moon from the very beginning of November features Mars, Neptune, and Mercury, your ruler, in a grand trine, so that there is potentially an idealistic vision within you, lasting all month, for what the possibilities are with social connections and friendships that you favor, cherished future goals, and beneficial relationship growth. Because Mercury is also beginning its month-long retrograde journey later this month as well, on the 25th, there could be a good deal of introspection involved in future weeks. You will be reflectively assessing what is going on with you as far as partners and the conundrums that can often be the case with close interpersonal relationships. The Taurus Full Moon of November 15th is another significant juncture, when your innermost intuition has an important role to play as you more fully embrace ideals of service to others, and of partnership interaction in general. As the Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st and as the Mercury Retrograde takes hold a few days further on, partners become an even more vital force within your life enabling you to reach for integration of inner and outer concerns as well as personal evolution.

November promises to be a busy month for you with the New Moon in Scorpio on the 1st taking place in the sector of your chart that relates to day-to-day life, health and routine habits. This is also a New Moon configuration where we find Mercury, your ruler, located on the edge of your opposite sign of Sagittarius, in a grand trine with Neptune and with Mars. This presages a November month with a lot of energy and passion for either somewhat destructive impulses to be unleashed or else, receiving the call of our higher angels, for acting on the impulse to try for the most idealistic of outcomes. There will probably be some of both that we will be seeing as this intense month continues to unwind.
With Scorpio Season in full swing, and in your sector of health and habit, you also may feel the need to simplify, declutter, purge and get rid of things that create stagnation in your environment. This could equally apply to your mind or in your body where this attitude might come to important fruition. Better time management may be essential not only to get through your work and ongoing projects but to ensure that you also have time left to unplug and relax.
On November 2nd, Mercury, your ruling planet, enters the fiery sign of Sagittarius, which is also your opposite sign, signifying your relationships. This transit might therefore bring attention to your partnerships in this second day of the month and over the weeks ahead, especially after it retrogrades there, beginning on the 25th. Contractual agreements and negotiations along with your entire relationship dynamic will be up for review, readjustment, and reconsideration, and take longer to work themselves out. You may get a hint of what this means by November 11th and 12th when Mercury forms its first of three squares with Saturn in Pisces. This square between Mercury and Saturn will occur again on December 6th when Mercury stations direct, standing once more dead still in the sky when it does so. Over this entire 5 ½ week period of time there will likely be collaborative processes that needs to get better clarified.
From November 4th to the 5th, Venus trines the Chiron/ Eris midpoint in Aries, or your social sector, which can stimulate your ideas for a more livable future for yourself, and also perhaps bring up issues of inner wounding that get in the way of you more completely actualizing your dreams and visions for yourself. It is possible that you will have some experience with friends and associates at this time that will aid your understanding of what it might take to achieve a better connection with everything that is under the surface layers of your psyche and somewhat beyond your normal waking conscious awareness.
On the 11th Venus enters Capricorn, representing your sector of intimacy and of partner agreements, which life factors might wind up contributing to your vocational arrangements.
The Full Moon in Taurus arrives on November 15th and could illuminate the ways in which stressors affect you on a deeper level so that it may be a good moment to check in with yourself. The Moon in this configuration forms a close conjunction with Trickster Uranus, implying that the moment is rife with surprises or unexpected intuitional revelations. Any grounding practices like meditation or a nature walk could be a really good way at this time to return to basics and release built up tension.
On the 17th and 18th, Mercury in Sagittarius forms an opposition with Jupiter in Gemini which may emphasize an ongoing process of personal expansion having repercussions on your relationships or on your current career trajectory. Your personal beliefs could be clashing against some kind of external authority or it could be that your ambitions threaten to disrupt the status quo in some ways.
The Sun’s entry into Sagittarius on the 21st could bring more dynamic interactions with others in the weeks ahead, especially with
Mercury in Sagittarius stations to retrograde motion on November 25th. Mercury is also square to Saturn which intensifies the moment of its standstill so that things could temporally grind to a halt for at least a few days before slowly starting up again.
You could be more aware than usual of the costs and benefits of your relational investments and adjustments made in the weeks ahead could bring significant progress and long-lasting results. Mercury will be moving retrograde from this last week of November to December 15th and recovering during its post-retrograde shadow until the end of the year, so that the following month might well be one of introspection and reorientation of relationship alignments.
This is a month of creative artistic expression for you, Cancer, with implications for a necessary transformation of what you do in terms of vocational direction. This latter has been a bubbling caldron for many months, or perhaps a better metaphor might be a rocking cradle of new birth that is yet to fully manifest. The very potent Scorpio New Moon that begins the November month represents new beginnings in creative self-expression with implications for your societal contribution and also for key relationships that take you further along your intended evolutionary path. There are inner world factors to all this, so that integration is called for, between conscious and unconscious elements within you, to the extent that you can manage that. The First Quarter Moon of November 8th may bring new tensions to bear as you seek to reconcile your inner moral compass with outer world success on several different levels, including internally. The Full Moon a week later, taking place on the 15th in your social sector of friendships, group affiliations, and future goals, makes for another powerful junction urging you toward a more stable amalgam of inner and outer and you move closer to your next evolutionary stage.

The month of November begins with intensity as the Scorpio New Moon takes place early on the 1st, featuring a powerful opposition between Mars and Pluto, plus a grand trine in Water signs between Mercury in Scorpio, Neptune in Pisces, and Mars in the final degree of your sign. This latter planetary formation presages that all through the November month there will be an emphasis on an energetic thought process that includes a mystical element as a significant part of its functioning. Saturn, the ruler of your partnership sector, is trined by the New Moon, indicating that key partners in your life will play a strong role is the way that the month continues to unfold. Your relationship with your children or with a creative project could also be shifting and you may have to spend more time and energy on the things that you care the most about this month while also needing to reconcile your workload.
Mercury’s entry into Sagittarius on the 2nd signals the beginning of an extended period of time of Mercury’s presence there, in your sector of habitual activities, so that you may need to manage your time and effort more efficiently and be mindful to not take on more than you can handle. Mercury is due to station to retrograde motion on November 25th, and will not finally escape its post-retrograde shadow until the very end of December.
On November 11th, Venus enters Capricorn, blessing your relationship sector with her presence which may bring a greater desire to demonstrate your affection to those you care about or to relate in general.
On the 11th and 12th, Mercury in Sagittarius forms its first of three squares with Saturn in Pisces which may bring attention to your current workload and the tasks that are needed for you to pursue an objective. You may have to be more deliberate about your time and your schedule in order to get everything done at this time. Mercury in retrograde will square Saturn again in December and once more as it recovers after December 15th.
The Taurus Full Moon on the 15th culminates in the social sector of your chart that relates to your dreams and your aspirations, along with your friendships and the group activities you favor. A culmination process may be well underway or you may gain wider recognition within your community for your ground-breaking approaches in your work. In this Full Moon configuration, Trickster Uranus is closely conjunct the Moon. Surprises are likely as are revelations about new goals that you had not previously considered. Saturn stationing direct on the same day implies that the fruits of your labor could be paying off in some ways and be integrated more concretely in the months to come.
On the 17th and 18th, Mercury in Sagittarius opposing Jupiter in Gemini energizes your thought process, including intuitive information that comes to you from deep inside. This could also could emphasize the need for reflection before you can proceed ahead, particularly in regards to your current vocational trajectory.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st which could bring attention to your work and health routines. Aspecting Pluto, newly in Aquarius as it does so, implies also that personal transformation continues to be a powerful factor as you enter these last ten days of November. The Last Quarter Moon takes place on the very the next day, of the 22nd, and may emphasize places where you feel that you conscious awareness needs to grow.
Mercury turning retrograde in Sagittarius on the 25th give you an introspective period of time to end the November month. Mercury stions direct of the 15th of December, and then recovers until the end of the year.
This continues to be a progressive time for you when you will be reflecting seriously on where life is taking you right now. You might decide that you need to be more deliberate about your time and energy investments as one key to your future success.
This is a passionate month for you, Leo, in one way or another. As it begins, Mars is perched on the edge of your sign in powerful opposition to transformational Pluto. There could be unexpected bursts of anger to contend with, while there also could be a great deal of energy available for personal projects that come from your heart. As the end of the year approaches you may very well find yourself in the midst of meditations about your sense of identity and your ultimate life purpose, especially when Mars retrogrades next month, on December 6th, early in your sign. Mars enters Leo on Sunday evening, November 3rd, while Pluto enters your opposite sign of Aquarius on the 19th. Issues of partnership interaction and your relationship dynamic are likely throughout the November month, along with home and family concerns together with new beliefs potentially coming into play referencing your family of origin. In all of these various types of interaction, you may also have to guard against excessive anger coming to the surface, therefore watching what you say. The Taurus Full Moon on the 15th makes for another potent juncture focused on inner versus outer perspectives, sudden epiphanies, and seeking balance on the relationship front.

November begins with the New Moon in Scorpio on November 1st that brings fresh energy to the sector of your chart relating to your home, family and psychological roots, as well as your family of origin. This may be a particularly significant period for profound shifts that are going on internally that could also be reflected in your external circumstances and particularly with family members, key relationships, or regarding your career. The fiery planet Mars transiting in Cancer – quite close to the beginning of your sign – forms an opposition with Pluto in this New Moon. Entering Leo on the 3rd, Mars will spend an extended amount of time there due to his turning retrograde at 6 °or Leo on the 6th of December, so that issues of your very identity are coming up for you before the end of the year.
From the 3rd to the 4th, the Sun trines Saturn affecting partnership agreements and the contrast between what you require or wish from others and your own creative self-expression. This month is a time of re-working your important partnerships and of transforming relationship energy in general.
Venus’s entry into Capricorn on November 11th could bring relationship issues further to the fore and also your habitual responses in general that could also be undergoing a shift in consciousness.
From the 11th to the 12th, Mercury in Sagittarius, your creativity sector, forms a square with Saturn in Pisces. Mercury is in mutual reception, also, with Jupiter in your social sector, which signals consequences, plus demanding careful planning, especially around finances, projects, partnership agreements, or your goals for the future. Mercury is going to turn retrograde later this month, on the 25th, so that it will eventually symbolize a review and potential readjustment in these areas.
The Full Moon arrives in Taurus on November 15th and could mean having to juggle unforeseen factors or contend with surprise reversals over this month’s final two weeks since the Moon is forming a tight conjunction with Uranus in Taurus, corresponding to your vocational sector. It is possible that renewed focus on your career or professional life will involve balancing public and private concerns. This is a generally optimistic time for you, although it may be that your business practices must be allowed to better align with the dictates of your internal moral compass. Saturn turns direct on the same day which brings a shift and perhaps eventual momentum to existing struggles over partnership agreements of either an intimate or a business variety.
Pluto officially enters Aquarius on November 19th and will be transiting there for the next two decades. This is an important ingress because Aquarius sits across the zodiac from your home sign of Leo. Pluto transiting there will have a significant influence on your sign for interpersonal relationships and your understanding of power, passion, and obsession. It is possible that your relationship dynamic has already been subject to a good deal of transformational energy over these past several months and that this will continue.
Venus in Capricorn also comes into a square with the Nodal Axis on the 16th which means there could be mundane tasks or practicalities that must be dealt with before you can proceed ahead. Breakthroughs or fresh momentum are possible at this time especially for things related to career advancements but there may be logistical and organizational components that must be carefully managed.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st and immediately forms a supportive aspect with Pluto newly in Aquarius which may feel energizing. You could experience a creative surge now that requires deliberate channeling to be productive.
On the 25th, Mercury turns retrograde in Sagittarius and initiates period of a five weeks or slightly more when you will be in an introspective and a reflexive mode that calls for discussion or for journaling. You will likely feel a great deal of energy for exploring who you really are, and the effect that sense of emerging identity has on your creative output, including projects that you cherish or perhaps any children that are in your life. This period of time could also be your cue to take your passions seriously over the coming weeks and find the proper containers so that the ideas or inspiration emerging now can pay off later on.
This is another amazing month of passionate investigation, Virgo. The Scorpio New Moon of the 1st that sets the stage for the remainder of November features a grand trine between Mercury, your ruler, Mars in the final degree of Cancer, and idealistic Neptune in late Pisces. Pluto in late Capricorn is meanwhile closely opposed by Mars in this New Moon, and re-enters Aquarius on the 19th. This is a volatile configuration presaging a month of seeking better understanding through inner work, relationship adjustments, and delving deep below the surface layers of your psyche for the real truth of a given situation. Mercury in your communications sector indicates a greater sense of curiosity and potential learning. The Taurus Full Moon of November 15th features the Moon conjunct Uranus in Taurus, or your sector of higher mind, and so this quest for knowledge is greatly enhanced, with surprising revelations more than likely to appear. A week later, on the 22nd, the Last Quarter Moon in early degrees pf your sign brings inner moral compass and perceived values to the fore. When Mercury stations retrograde a few days later, on the 25th, lasting into mid-December and beyond, a period of introspection ensues, and your explorations of values, beliefs, and worldview are even more greatly emphasized.
The following was written by our guest columnist Elodie St-Onge Aubut of Ninth House Astrology
The month opens with the Scorpio New Moon, early on the 1st, in the sector of your chart that relates to your communication, curiosity, and learning, along with technical skills and know-how. This while Mars in Cancer is forming an opposition to Pluto in your creative house. This month could bring significant realizations and subsequent integration surrounding something that has been in the works for a long time. Your talent and your skills may have reached a point of maturity that requires you to find new challenges to conquer so that you can keep evolving. There could also be a complicated situation to untangle and yet you also have the fortitude to tackle these kinds of things. You instinctively know right now that you have to go down into your depths in order to go back up.
Mercury’s entry into Sagittarius on the 2nd and Mars entering Leo on the 3rd, further illuminate the month. The grand trine between Mercury, Neptune, and Mars from the New Moon configuration is still active, so that a mystical feeling of creative energy continues to be generated that stands vertical to the plane of routine physical existence. This stretches you in new ways that are also intuitively familiar. You are far more aware than ever about what lies below and beyond the surface layers of your psyche, and seeking to utilize this understanding better establish your life direction as more suited to your inner soul.
Venus moving into Capricorn on the 11th could bring support for creative and artistic pursuits in the coming weeks. However, as you get started, you may have to get over any self-imposed limitations – or from partners – for things to be a particular way.
From the 11th to the 12th, Mercury in Sagittarius forms a square with Saturn in Pisces which is an aspect that may bring up new responsibilities or a serious conversation with a family member or partner. You could be establishing an initial stage of a series of such events, since this aspect is happening twice more in December, during Mercury’s Retrograde time and the subsequent period of its recovery.
On the 15th, the Full Moon occurs in Taurus with the Moon in a close conjunction with Uranus. This could bring about surprises, epiphanies in the direction of new awareness, and a flash of being more open than usual to possibility. It may suddenly dawn on you that the world is as you make it, and this could be productive thought process for you in the longer run. There is a fundamental optimism at work within your spirit right now and it serves you well. Saturn turns direct in Pisces on the same day, which may emphasize a culmination process and perhaps a significant change in perspective around relationship commitment and productive changes.
On the 17th and 18th, Mercury in Sagittarius forms an opposition with Jupiter in Gemini and this could bring clues about how your intuitive inner information provides support for career expansion and success.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st and comes through a supportive aspect with Pluto newly in Aquarius. You may be feeling more introspective than usual so that it could be a good period to retire to your personal quarters or focus on things that need to be done at home.
Mercury in Sagittarius is retrograde from November 25th until December 15th, and then recovering until just after the end of the year. This entire next month is therefore an introspective time, when you could be asking questions or meditating upon your home and family situation, which maty also include in the bargain your family of origin or your psychological roots. You could find yourself reorganizing your space to make it more functional or tackle family situations in search of new solutions/ The middle of the December month is one peak of this activity, which will gradually straighten out thereafter.
This is a month of thoughtful consideration and passionate responses, Libra, involving a better understanding of your beliefs and values and as well relationship transformation. The Scorpio New Moon that takes place on November 1st features Mars, ruler of your partnership sector, in close direct opposition to Pluto, signifying that this entire month is likely to be a time of change regarding one or more of the key relationships in your life, with implications also for your own evolutionary journey into greater wholeness. With Pluto on the cusp of your sector of creative self-expression, crossing into Aquarius by the 19th, the productions of your mind and heart are also subject to constructive changes that align with new intuitional insights about what you are currently up to. In the timing of the Taurus Full Moon of November 15th, issues of self and other could further come to a head. Revelations could also come suddenly, and then be the subject of introspective musings as Mercury eases into its retrograde period that formally begins on the 25th. You do well to stay practical and cool-headed through it all, recognizing that everything will very likely come out all right in the end, although this is perhaps easier said than done
The following was written by our guest columnist Elodie St-Onge Aubut of Ninth House Astrology
The New Moon in Scorpio at the beginning of the month takes place in the sector of your chart that relates to your resources. This could be material resources and money but more broadly this New Moon could be an invitation to nurture your profound reservoir of strength, resilience, and wisdom that you have for yourself inside, because you may be richer than you think! And this might be especially so in the currency that the world needs right now. Mars, your opposite sign’s traditional ruler is opposed Pluto in this New Moon, so that there is partnership transformation that is coming up for you this entire month and it could include your whole relationship dynamic undergoing a metamorphosis. Mars in Cancer opposing Pluto in Capricorn on the edge of your creative sector could emphasize the end of an era or the beginning of a new one. Then, too, Venus that is your own sign’s ruler is opposed to Jupiter right now, perfecting on the 3rd, and this brings optimism and thoughtful participation in the underground currents of your destiny.
Your ambitions, goals, and friendship associations, along with who you want to be, could be changing as Mars in Leo from the 3rd is slowing down in preparation for its retrograde beginning on December 6th. Mars transiting retrograde in Leo next month could highlight people or a community from your past although it may only serve to emphasize some disparities and fuel a desire to invest more wholeheartedly in your personal or creative trajectory.
Mercury is transiting in Sagittarius all month as well, beginning on the 2nd, and is slowing down to turn retrograde in the last full week of November; if you find yourself quite busy with menial or tedious tasks, keep in mind that each step in your process is necessary for the accomplishment of your larger goals. The big changes that you seek are also seeking you but you might have to meet them halfway with continued sustained efforts especially in the next two months of the Mercury Retrograde and its aftermath.
The Full Moon lands in Taurus on November 15th and also the Moon in this configuration forms a close conjunction with Uranus, further illuminating business or intimate partnerships and the agreements within them. In this regard, there might be surprises You might feel a need to consolidate or solidify an arrangement, and yet this could be a pretty wild ride, bringing forward your own internal principles and contrasting with those of partners or of the consensus thinking in the environment around you. You may have to contend with a lot of unknown or resistance coming from others especially as Venus in Capricorn forms a tense aspect with the Nodes of the Moon in Libra and Aries at this time.
On November 21st, the Sun enters Sagittarius and forms a supportive aspect with Pluto in Aquarius which brings momentum and a stronger need to communicate your ideas with the world.
The Last Quarter Moon in Virgo on November 22nd is a significant marker, bringing unconscious contents of your psyche further into the light of day and creating a sense of contrast between these very different points of view that are equally significant factors in your life purpose.
Mercury in the last third of Sagittarius turns retrograde on November 25th in aspect with Chiron, the Wounded Healer, in your partnership sector. The weeks that follow, through to the ending of the year, are introspective ones where you might find yourself dealing with relationship wounds that interfere with smooth sailing in this important area. Although you may feel impatient to get moving with your ideas, the next five and a half weeks could be used to diligently revise and refine what you need to be working on in as you move forward with your evolutionary development.
Scorpio Horoscope November 2024
SCORPIO (Oct 23 - Nov 21) Water. Ruling Planets Mars, Pluto
This is another rather intense month for you, Scorpio, as presaged by the potent New Moon in your sign of November 1st when your traditional ruler, Mars, is opposed to Pluto. You are coming off of a thoughtful time of inner musings. There are intimations this month of spiritual factors in you being just as realistic as the more readily evident logic and material of the physical world. This does create a certain degree of illusion, and perhaps confusion, in dealing with the mundane details of chores and schedules, although the compensation might be in coming to greater assurance that everything, in spite of appearances, has its point after all. Your values are your bedrock now. Your career energy is high and is also in transition. You do very well to the extent that you can stay light on your feet, and open to whatever happens. This becomes even more evident with the powerful Full Moon of the 15th, in your opposite sign. At this juncture, issues of self and other could manifest, and sudden realizations abound. The Mercury Retrograde period begins on the 25th and takes you through an introspective December toward a somewhat shaky New Year. The meaning of your life could become poignant material for reflection.

November begins with a New Moon in your sign implying that this is a solid month for you when your self-appreciation runs high. The Sun and Moon are also receiving a supportive aspect from Saturn in Pisces which is excellent news for you and signals not only a good time to invest in yourself but also to take what you are passionate about more seriously. Mars, your traditional ruler, is closely opposed to Pluto on the edge of Aquarius or your domestic sector, so that the transformational impulse that has been brewing there for many months now gets a big jolt of energy throughout November. This could apply to your dwelling space or your family dynamics, and potentially to your family of origin and the psychological roots of your being.
Mercury enters Sagittarius on the 2nd and will initiate retrograde motion there starting on the 25th. Mercury’s extended stay in Sagittarius could bring attention to potential changes taking place in relation to your values and your resources and where you want to take things in 2025. Although your desire for financial autonomy could be strong, there may also be considerable benefits coming from one of your partnerships, making things not as straightforward as you would like.
On the 3rd, important shifts are taking place with Mars entering Leo – which references your sector of career and professional life. With Mars transiting in your vocational sector, you could be thinking a lot more about where things are heading career-wise, and how much they reflect your internal principles and values. The potential could be there to spend time – as a living – doing more of what you love, and this may require a considerable amount of energy investment in the months ahead.
From the 4th to the 5th, Venus trines the Chiron/ Eris midpoint, located in your sector of health, habitual routines, and your workplace, and there could be partnership interactions during this timing that could relate to any of these areas. You might be after the source of ancient inner wounding that continues to haunt your present-day alignments, and it is possible that your changing values could reflect this effort.
On the 11th, Venus enters Capricorn, corresponding to your sector of communication and learning, and thus links your relationships and your inner knowing with a developing sense of curiosity regarding the world around you and your place within it.
On November 15th, the Taurus Full Moon culminates in your relationship sector just as Saturn turns direct in Pisces in your creativity sector. You have a strong focus on your creative self-expression and could run into fresh limitations there. The days surrounding this Full Moon have the potential to bring new things to light especially with the Full Moon forming a close conjunction with Uranus. Surprises and unexpected revelations may abound and could involve aspects of your personal relationships or a business partnership. Venus in Capricorn, which has rulership over the sign of Taurus and therefore of this Full Moon, is forming a square with the transiting Nodal Axis in Libra and Aries which could bring up some degree of relationship tension between novelty versus the prior status quo. Although the energy of this moment may seem to require action, it may be best to let the volatility move through before jumping to any startling conclusions.
The Sun in your sign forming a flowing aspect with Neptune in creative Pisces on the 18th and 19th could rekindle your inspiration and allow you to focus your attention on what you want as opposed to what you do not. There could be illusion or confusion regarding your choices now, so that you will have to sort out the wheat from the chaff. You will have the aid of Saturn, newly in direct motion in this same sign, which is good at that.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st and forms a positive aspect with Pluto newly in Aquarius, perhaps emphasizing a desire for more freedom and autonomy particularly financially in the weeks ahead. Mercury turning retrograde in Sagittarius on the 25th and moving backwards there for the next three weeks, followed by its recovery right through to the end of the December month, could help you as you focus introspective attention on assessing your financial situation and your other resources, along with what is available for you to spend time on. The conclusions you come to throughout December will likely be different than what you had originally been thinking and also might yet shift again after the end of the year.
Sagittarius Horoscope November 2024
SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 - Dec 21) Fire. Ruling Planet Jupiter
This is another rather amazing month for you, Sagittarius, with powerful energies. Your creative projects, perhaps involving romantic ones, have been on your mind of late, and are in transition. The Scorpio New Moon of November 1st takes place in your sector of unconscious process and inner work, with an additional emphasis on Mercury, entering Sagittarius on the 2nd and preparing to retrograde. This is therefore the first of two thoughtful months of progressively intense introspection. Also dramatic as the month begins is Mars in close opposition to Pluto. Passions can run high, and transformation is in the air, to include your beliefs and worldview, and affecting your creativity and future goals. The Full Moon of the 15th could also be significant in this regard. Another powerful juncture for you this month would be the Moon’s Last Quarter on the 22nd, which takes place with the Sun in your sign and the Moon in your vocational sector, affecting notions of your identity and your public persona. Mercury is due to retrograde in your sign on the 25th, and up until then is slowing down, allowing things to unexpectedly go awry. All in all, this is therefore a month of changes and looking within; and perhaps one, as well, of surrender.
The following was written by our guest columnist Elodie St-Onge Aubut of Ninth House Astrology
The month of November begins with the Scorpio New Moon at the very beginning of the month, on the morning of November 1st, taking place in the sector of your chart that relates to dream imagination and unconscious process. This month is a thoughtful time for you when there could be issues related to the hidden parts of your psyche that may come up for better understanding. Your nighttime dreams could be especially important now and you might want to keep a journal by your bedside to write them down. With Mars exactly opposite Pluto in the New Moon, your creative self-expression is likely in some sort of transition, along with higher-mind considerations of beliefs and worldview. Key relationships in your life are also up for you this month, with Mercury in trine with Mars and with Venus opposing Jupiter in Gemini. You will gain from the input of your own inner depths as well as from trusted partners.
Mercury enters Sagittarius on the 2nd while Venus in Sagittarius opposes Jupiter in Gemini and Mars enters Leo on the 3rd. These aspects could boost your need to relate and convey your ideas and opinions with others and lively exchanges are more likely at this time. Important negotiations could also be taking place. Mercury trine Neptune and Mars in the New Moon implies a spacey consciousness active throughout the month that could feel idealistic or perhaps confusing, and which partakes of Spirit as much as the materialistic 3D world of physical reality, while Venus precisely opposed to Jupiter, your ruler, brings partnership even more clearly into the picture for these two days.
On the 4th and 5th, Venus trines Chiron and Eris, which are aligned together in Aries or your self-expression sector. You are feeling the call of future goals as you also may have to deal with issues of inner wounding that could hold you back from fully showing to meet these goals. The way forward here is to acknowledge your internal flaws, learning to love yourself through them, rather than shunning parts of yourself that you would rather not face. You also win by reflecting that, no matter what, everything within you continues to evolve and grow. “Sweet are the lessons of adversity” could become your motto.
On the 11th, Venus enters Capricorn, and your values and finances are more fully present to you. You are seeking an amalgam of your own deeper principles together with the choices of which you are more consciously aware.
On the 12th, Mercury makes a square with Saturn in Pisces, lending a sense of stability especially as far as your home life is concerned. You may not be able to resolve everything immediately. The square between Mercury and Saturn will re-occur two more times between now and the end of December since Mercury will be in retrograde that month, after stationing on the 25th of November.
The Taurus Full Moon lands on November 15th and the Moon forms a close conjunction with Uranus, indicating surprises, and surprise revelations. Saturn turns direct in Pisces on the same day. Any dysfunctional patterns within you that are causing stress could become clearer to you at this time, so listen to what your body or your intuition is telling you in order that you are able to make the necessary adjustments.
On the 17th and 18th, Mercury in your sign opposing Jupiter in Gemini could continue to highlight ongoing negations or compromises needed in your partnerships.
The Sun’s entry into Sagittarius on the 21st should help clarify what it is that you want and require in the coming month so be patient if you don’t have all the answers at this time.
Mercury in your sign stations retrograde on November 25th , which is one highlight of the Mercury Retrograde period to follow . Mercury remains in backward motion until December 15th, and then is recovering for the net two and a half weeks, until just after the end of the year. This extended period of time, lasting through the month’s final week, and the entire month f December, allowing for a time of reflection that could lead to course corrections surrounding your desires, your very sense of identity, and your objectives.
Capricorn Horoscope November 2024
CAPRICORN (Dec 22 - Jan 19) Earth. Ruling Planet Saturn
This is another month of excitement and change, Capricorn. You are coming off of a month when you focused on your vocational identity, and now, especially with the dynamic Scorpio New Moon at the very start of this month, it is your social participation that drives you in terms of groups, friendships, and future goals. This is an entirely transformative time, when Pluto is greatly featured and about to exit your sign for good on the 19th, entering into your sector of values, resources, and finances for the next twenty years. You are tuning in, in subtle ways, to what truly counts for you, going forward, and most significantly what makes the most sense for you in alignment with your evolutionary growth. You have thoughts revolving around inner work, which become ever more reflectively oriented and poignant heading into December, along with idealistic conceptions right now of home and family including family of origin. Communicating your ideas becomes more important as the month’s first two weeks unfold, culminating in the dramatic Full Moon in your sector of creative self-expression of the 15th. Mercury’s retrograde on the 25th, lasting throughout the December month, seals the deal for an introspective and self-reflective ending of the year.
The following was written by our guest columnist Elodie St-Onge Aubut of Ninth House Astrology
The November month arrives with a wallop, with a potent New Moon happening on its very first day. The Scorpio New Moon of November 1st takes place in your social sector which may emphasize relational dynamics of all kinds in the weeks ahead along with more opportunities to go out, have fun, and release some steam. Mars in Cancer opposing Pluto in Capricorn in this New Moon could bring passions and obsessions to bear in the November cycle and also the willpower to move through any obstacles that stand in your way. Your collaborations could feel strained under such indications. You may have to find the middle ground between getting your way versus giving up on someone. With Mercury on the edge of your sector of unconscious process, and trine Neptune in this New Moon, there could be a sense of fuzzy thinking, clouded thoughts, or fantasy imaginings that make it difficult to be entirely logical. What is made stronger, however, is your access to your own inner world of emotions and intuitive information.
On the 3rd and 4th, the Sun trines Saturn, your ruler, more precisely, and this could bring even more energetic juice to your friendships and group activities, as well as your goals for the future.
On the 4th and 5th, Venus in Sagittarius, or your sector of unconscious process, trines the conjunction of Eris with Chiron, the Wounded Healer in your sector of your home and family, and your deep psychological roots. You might feel this as a momentary impulse to more fully explore any inner wounding that gets in the way of more fully embodying harmony in your family circle, or in relation to your family of origin. Early childhood events that have been buried away below the surface of your conscious awareness might be able to be processed now, or also perhaps over the course of the Mercury Retrograde period of time that is looming.
On the 11th and the 12th, Mercury in Sagittarius squares Saturn in your communication sector, further bringing unconscious complexes into the light of more conscious awareness and processing. Mercury is slowing down, getting ready to station to retrograde motion on the 25th, lasting through to the end of the year when you take the post-retrograde shadow period into account. This entire time might be very good for introspection and reflection on the hidden paces within your psyche, to the extent that you can tune in to these subtle indications of buried emotions.
On November 11th, Venus enters your sign; known as the planet of ease and diplomacy, Venus therefore becomes more available to you, perhaps thereby giving you an advantage that could help you charm your way forward.
The Full Moon in Taurus on the 15th culminates in the sector of your chart that relates to joy, pleasure, and creative self-expression. This could also signal greater energy for any children that are currently in your life. This could be a good time to relax, and make time for what you love. Since the Moon is also forming a close conjunction with Uranus in this Full Moon, things may not go entirely as planned, so that you might expect having to stay flexible during that weekend and heading into the close of the November month. There could also be unexpected revelations that accompany this lunation. It might do you good to remain open trying something new or different.
On the 17th and 18th, Mercury opposes Jupiter in Gemini, greatly stimulating your ideas. In this burst of mental energy, you might be looking ahead to future plans, and also beginning a process of self-reflection that will be appropriate to the period of Mercury’s retrograde coming up in a week’s time.
Pluto re-enters Aquarius on November 19th, officially leaving your sign for good, or until many decades have passed. Pluto has been transiting your sign since 2008 so that it might feel like a relief to see it go, and it might feel as well like an opportunity to reflect on the last nearly twenty years of your progress since that time.
The Sun enters Sagittarius a few days later, on the 21st, immediately forming a supportive aspect with Pluto in Aquarius; this is therefore a good opportunity to pay attention to your internal awareness which may have something to do with an increasing need for autonomy, space, and perhaps new experiences.
On November 25th, Mercury stations retrograde in Sagittarius where it will be moving backward until December 15th. With both the Sun and Mercury transiting in your soul sector for the next month, you may feel more introspective and needing time alone to reflect on your overall direction but also to recharge your batteries. This is not actually a good time to “push the river” but rather to hold off and await developments. Sometimes being less productive is the most productive thing you can do.
Aquarius Horoscope November 2024
AQUARIUS (Jan 20 - Feb 18) Air. Ruling Planets Uranus, Saturn
This is another in a series of powerful months for you, Aquarius, when you are making adjustments to the way that you show up in the world in both public and private capacities. In the Scorpio New Moon of November 1st, the transformative energy of Pluto, hovering on the edge of your sign, is opposite passionate Mars. This emphasizes your ongoing changes in terms of identity and brings key partnerships more completely into the equation of your journey into greater balance and wholeness. Your career and profession is mightily affected as well in all this. Your search for greater wholeness begins at your core and spreads outward from there. You are seeking to integrate your internal moral commitment with vocational plans and attitudes. The Taurus Full Moon of November 15th makes for another potent juncture, a culmination of the initiatory energy from the start of the month. Pluto re-enters your sign on November 19th, and you might feel the shift to more active transformation. When Mercury stations retrograde on the 25th in your social sector, lasting through to the end of the year, this is another significant moment when you could find yourself questioning your friendships and the social groups that you favor along with your dreams and visions for yourself moving forward.
The following was written by our guest columnist Elodie St-Onge Aubut of Ninth House Astrology
The New Moon in Scorpio on November 1st begins the month and characterizes the thirty-day cycle that follows. This signals the beginning of a dynamic month for vocational and social pursuits, and that it may be wise to pay attention to your needs amidst the demands of the external world. There is powerful energy for transformation located on the edge of your sign, with Mars exactly opposed to Pluto at 29° of Capricorn, so that with Pluto re-entering your sign this month as well, you can feel a further stage of the shift in identity that you have been experiencing over recent months. Mercury is similarly on the edge of your social sector and is trine Neptune and Mars, bringing your projects and your creative self-expression into greater focus and taking on a spiritual glow.
Mercury enters Sagittarius on the 2nd which may increase networking opportunities and social events in the coming weeks while Mars’s entry into Leo on the 3rd brings relationships in your life more fully into the picture . You may experience a tension between extraversion and introversion or you may have to juggle the demands of others with your own personal requirements more attentively. Transformation continues to be in the air for relationships and for your communicative outreach.
On the 11th, Venus enters Capricorn which will increasingly emphasize a need within you for introspection or reflection as the year comes to an end and you recognize the important changes are taking place.
The Full Moon in Taurus on November 15th takes place in the sector of your chart that relates to your roots, your family and your domestic life and may exaggerate this need for a more inward experiences as things are shifting around you. There is a strong appearance at this time of Trickster Uranus, with the Moon almost exactly conjunct this volatile archetype in the Full Moon configuration. Surprises could be experienced in either your home and family events or also in your creative spaces, with wildly novel ideas to contend with. Saturn in Pisces stationing direct on the same day could bring your attention back to your resources, your hopes and your aspirations for the future and compel you to stay focus on your overall direction.
On November 17th and 18th, Mercury in Sagittarius forms an opposition with Jupiter in Gemini, which could bring inspiration and creative developments.
Pluto’s entry into Aquarius on the 19th is obviously a very important marker as Pluto will be spending the next twenty years transiting in your sign. You will be dealing with needed changes all through the current month and meditating on these ideas all through the next month of December, when Mercury and then also Mars will be in retrograde motion in key sectors of your chart.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st immediately forming a supportive aspect with Pluto newly in Aquarius. You may get a hint of what is to come even if this hint is nothing more than a hunch at this time. The Sun’s transit in Sagittarius until mid-December may emphasize your role and responsibilities within a group or a community.
Mercury in Sagittarius starts its retrograde on the 25th and will be moving back through Sagittarius until the 15th of December and then recovering through to the ending of the year. This may prompt you to revise your allegiance and your social investments so that you can have more time left for your personal projects. You may experience a tension between your pre-existing commitments and a need to have more time for what you love and the next few weeks could help you reorganize your priorities.
Pisces Horoscope November 2024
PISCES (Feb 19 - Mar 20) Water. Ruling Planets Neptune, Jupiter
This is a wild and crazy month for you, Pisces. The Scorpio New Moon on the 1st that characterizes the November month takes place in your sector of higher mind realizations and interests, stimulating your more cosmic intentions for yourself as you evolve. Mars is opposite Pluto, trine Neptune, your ruler, and trine Mercury, making for a thoughtful and energic month when transformation is in the air and when you are invited to think your way through. You could be seeking a better fit between internal moral understandings and vocational choices. Because Saturn in your sign is activated, there could be limitations to deal with as you grow. The Taurus Full Moon of the 15th stimulates deep intuitional information over and above mere ratiocination, while the Moon’s Last Quarter in Virgo on the 22nd brings relationship into the picture and a settling in of knowledge gained along the way. When Mercury stations on the 25th, at 22° of Sagittarius, initiating its retrograde period during November’s last week and on through to the end of the year counting its post-retrograde shadow, you could find yourself questioning and reviewing your career and professional life with a propensity for making necessary adjustments.
The following was written by our guest columnist Elodie St-Onge Aubut of Ninth House Astrology
The month of November arrives with a shift in perspective thanks to the New Moon in Scorpio not only opening up your scope of vision but allowing you to see far beyond any current limitations and responsibilities. This is a potent New Moon, with Mercury – also in Scorpio – in trine with Mars and with Neptune, your ruler, in you sign. This New Moon energy is also made far more potent by the close opposition from Mars to Pluto, indicating that there is transformational rebirth affecting the area of your resources and finances, aa well as your unconscious process and daily routines. You work in the world is also affected.
Inspiration could be high and your desire to act on a hunch could be even higher especially with Mercury transiting in Sagittarius from the 2nd onward. Mars in Cancer enters Leo or the 3rd, cementing this powerful metamorphosis that you find yourself in the midst of. With Pluto, you can go quietly and willingly, although this is not easy, or else you can fight all the way from the changes that are on offer. Either way you will go.
On the 3rdand 4th, the Sun in Scorpio forms a trine with Saturn in your sign, potentially bringing up new wrinkles on limitations that you are already to some extent dealing with, or else giving you a dose of grounded safety and stability.
On the 11th, Venus enters Capricorn which may increase social interactions by mid-November compelling you to connect with people who can help you move ahead in the world.
On the 11th and the 12th, Mercury in Sagittarius forms a square with Saturn which is an indication of commitment to your current thought process and as well your awareness of some potential for blockage that you must deal with as you go. You could also be experiencing ongoing tension surrounding pre-existing responsibilities or a desire to branch out and explore new possibilities. Mercury stations retrograde on the 25th, and this aspect will therefore occur twice more in December, as Mercury retrogrades through the first two weeks of the December month and then, again, as it recovers over its final half.
The Taurus Full Moon takes place on 15th in your sector of communication and learning, with the Moon in close conjunction with Trickster Uranus. This could be a volatile time of unexpected events and surprising revelations, and you do well to just stay in the moment and remain open to possibility. This may allow you to act on a hunch or trust a current impulse more fully.
Saturn turns direct a few hours after the Full Moon which could bring you to a significant period of integration particularly in regard to your direction, your coming to grips with the passage of time, and your need for autonomy and authority.
On the 17th and the 18th, as Mercury opposes Jupiter from Sagittarius, corresponding to your vocational sector, you could have a burst of brilliant ideas for how to better manage your career an professional life to be in better touch with your inner principles and values.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st, illuminating your vocational sector and giving you extra energy to focus on what you truly want for yourself in terms of career and professional life, moving forward.
Venus in Capricorn squares Chiron in Aries on the 27th as the month is nearing its close, implies that you could be acutely aware of your needs for greater financial autonomy but some of that pressure could be coming from what you think others expect from you as opposed to what you expect from yourself.
Mercury also stations retrograde in Sagittarius, beginning on the 25th, and you enter an introspective period of time over this final week of November. This concerns your work in the world and how well that matches with your own deeply held principles and values. You still have some things to figure out. Mercury will be moving retrograde through your career sector until December 15th, then recovering for the remainder of the December month, which means you have a solid five-week period to reflect, introspect, get inspired, and plan your next course of action in the new year.
A November Month of Transformation and Surprises
This is an exciting and changeful month of November that we have going, with an amazing and powerful Scorpio New Moon right from its very beginning, taking place in the morning hours of Friday, November 1st, and featuring a grand cross and a partile or same-degree opposition from Mars to Pluto in the final or anaretic degrees of their respective signs of Cancer and Capricorn. This is thus making this dynamite opposition even more poignant. Because just on the edge of the next sign, both Leo and Aquarius are additionally affected. The grand trine (and kite) formation is between Mars at 29° of Cancer, Mercury at 28° of Scorpio, and Neptune at 27° of Pisces. A Water sign Mercury that is strongly configured with Neptune and Mars could reference analyzing emotional content, or the possibility of idealizations or even deceptions taking over our mental landscape including fantasy dreams from beyond the 3D world of our senses, chores, and schedules. To mightily cap this off, Mercury is also opposite Trickster Uranus in Taurus, while the Taurus Full Moon of the 15th features the Moon in a 1-degree conjunction with this energy of unexpected events and surprising revelations. All in all, this November is what we might call a wild and crazy month with, what else? let’s see… oh, yes! An absolutely consequential US election hanging in the balance. God bless.
To further examine the Scorpio New Moon that begins the month and that characterizes its entire thirty days, we find the Sun and Moon, at 9° of Scorpio, in trine with Saturn in Pisces, bringing at least a modicum of stability to the proceedings. Saturn is due to station to direct motion in collusion with the Taurus Full Moon, on the same day. We also find Saturn in quintile to Uranus in both of these lunations, which brings another interesting combination to bear, where what is a rather rebellious and untamed energy is therefore somewhat contained. The caveat to this though is that in any astrological contest between Uranus and Saturn, Uranus will win! So once remarked to me, in similar circumstances to this one, seminal Cosmic Love astrologer Jan Spiller. Since Uranus is so greatly present in these key lunations for the November month, we can profit by staying as open as we can to possibility. You never know where inspiration might be lying in wait; as the Grateful Dead lyric goes: “Once in a while you can get shown the light/ In the strangest of places if you look at it right!”
Along with strong Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, we have also to contend with, as the November month begins to wind down, not one by two inner planet retrogrades looming. Mars will station in Leo, in early December, and be slowing down in the sky leading up to that. Mercury stations to reverse motion on November 25th, right after the Last Quarter Moon at the beginning of Virgo, aspecting the new Nature planet, Haumea, by a close sextile. Haumea reminds us of our profound connection to Nature and her creatures, as well as to a species of natural law that we all carry somewhere within, urging that we treat each other fairly, strive for right action, and try not to lie. The retrograde station of Mercury at 22° Sagittarius coincides with a very nearly exact parallel between Mercury and Venus, therefore affecting the signs of Sagittarius, where Mercury will be moving backward, and then recovering, through to the end of the year, and also of Taurus, Gemini, Virgo, and Libra, which Venus and Mercury rule. All through, we are likely to be introspectively reflecting upon – plus reviewing, and potentially revising – the areas of life that we find in our charts in connection with these five signs.
And speaking of Haumea, we do continue to see her in close square with Pluto, which does seem to bring out, especially when triggered by other planetary alignments, the question of who we can trust not to be prevaricating for political advantage in these fractious times. As Mars slows to half its normal speed in the beginning of November and reaches the 0° Leo mark in time for Election Day here in the US, from November 3rd to the 5th, opposing Pluto at almost 0° of Aquarius and squaring Haumea at 1° Scorpio, we will see that maxim tested to the hilt. The election, to my way of seeing things, could very well turn out to be a referendum on who of these two major candidates comes closer to telling the truth.
