November pulses with retrograde energy as multiple planets reverse course, and a bevy of water-sign transits invite you to navigate emotional currents with grace. The month begins with Mars, your ruler, charging into fiery Sagittarius on November 4, sparking your hunger for adventure, new ideas, and deeper meaning. You’re restless for movement—mental or physical—and craving something that reignites your sense of purpose. Then Mercury turns retrograde on November 9, joining Mars on November 12, stirring tension, delays, and heated exchanges. It’s not the best time for big decisions or travel, so breathe before you react and double-check everything—this retrograde has teeth. By midmonth, your focus shifts to money matters and the small details you’ve been dodging; what once felt heavy now looks like something you can finally face. When Jupiter stations retrograde on November 12, you’re asked to slow down and integrate what’s expanded in your sense of home and belonging; you’re reconsidering what “home” really means and where belonging begins—it could be less about place and more about inner peace. Between November 18 and 20, your finances might reveal something you need to see—cash flow, bills you’ve been putting off, or a pattern you’ve avoided confronting. Don’t turn away; real courage means looking straight at what scares you and discovering you’re capable of handling it.

Pause and notice how far you’ve come, Taurus. Venus in Libra has been smoothing out your routines and work relationships since last month, helping you find more balance in your daily well-being. As it prepares to shift on November 11, take note of what’s been working. The full moon in your sign on November 5 feels like the universe giving you a nod—you might finally release that project, feel a surge of energy, or exhale into a life that actually fits. Then Venus slips into Scorpio on November 11, and suddenly your relationships turn intense, magnetic, and all-consuming; these connections demand that you show up fully, vulnerably, courageously—no hiding allowed. Mercury stations retrograde on November 9, and by November 12 it tangles with Mars in a messy aspect; old financial entanglements and unresolved agreements could resurface with an edge. Don’t commit to anything you’ll regret—double-check everything, renegotiate when necessary, and draw firm boundaries around shared money and resources. Meanwhile, Uranus returns to Taurus on November 7 for one final six-month lap, continuing the personal revolution you’ve been living since 2018—your transformation isn’t finished yet. With multiple planets retrograde, November whispers: slow down, review, reflect, and refine; it isn’t a month for charging forward—it’s about taking stock, reassessing your priorities, and making adjustments that actually stick.

All the excitement and change of late is about to hit pause, Gemini. You thrive on fast, dynamic energy, and with Uranus in your sign, your world has been expanding in every direction; as planets go retrograde this month, life may feel more like the daily grind, but it’s only temporary. You’ve been riding a tide of fresh possibilities lately—some exhilarating, others a bit unsettling—so how are you feeling, physically and mentally? As Uranus leaves Gemini on November 7 and the lunations shine a light on your well-being, now is the time to find your center. Your cosmic ruler, Mercury, stations retrograde in Sagittarius on November 9 and joins Mars on November 12; tensions could arise in personal or business relationships, so oversee your words. Contracts may also need to be reviewed, offering flexibility if circumstances have shifted. On November 18, Mercury moves back into Scorpio, your sixth house of health, work, and daily routines; it’s a helpful moment to spot what’s really going on, whether it’s a physical issue or a project glitch. Jupiter in your cash house goes retrograde from November 12 to March 11, 2026—it’s time to integrate and scale back expansion, not to stop cash flow. Saturn stations direct in Pisces on November 28 in your career house; things will gradually pick up as you wrap up the old and prepare for the new.

The Taurus full moon on November 5 lights up your social and creative world, marking a peak moment when something you’ve been building finally comes to life; a dream, collaboration, or project feels within reach, so take time to celebrate how far you’ve come before rushing toward what’s next. After months of steady progress, life turns inward: Jupiter stations retrograde in your sign on November 11, beginning a reflective cycle that lasts through March; it isn’t about slowing down but about absorbing the growth of the past few months—think of it as a deep breath before your next leap. A project may need fine-tuning, or a relationship may call for deeper understanding—ask yourself what wisdom is ready to be shared, and what still needs time to mature. As Mercury retrograde joins this introspective stretch, balance becomes essential; you may need to reset your rhythms, tend to your body, or rework your schedule so creativity doesn’t drain your reserves. If life insists you pause, listen—it’s not a setback but divine timing; it is your sacred pause, Cancer. Rest, reflect, and trust that by spring, your clarity and purpose will return stronger than ever.

This month asks a pivotal question: Are you ready to claim the authority you’ve been building toward? The Taurus full moon on November 5 shines a spotlight on career growth and promotions, but first you need to own that authority yourself—no one else can grant it. This is your moment to lead boldly and claim what sets you apart; take stock of what you’ve built so far and recognize the unique contributions only you can make. Uranus retrogrades back into Taurus on November 7, staying until February 3, 2026, closing out a seven-year cycle of career reinvention; expect surprises alongside chances to stabilize what has felt uncertain since 2018. This phase makes it clear where your career is strong and where it needs rethinking, giving you the opportunity to adjust before moving forward. Mercury turns retrograde in Sagittarius on November 9, moving into Scorpio on November 18, stirring family dynamics, home projects, and emotional repairs. The new moon in Scorpio on November 20 is deeply emotional, inviting reflection: Does your space nourish or drain you? With Jupiter paused in reflection and Mars energizing your house of pleasure and creativity, November asks you to slow down and recalibrate—use this time to revise your priorities and approach the month with intention.

The full moon in Taurus on November 5 kicks off a month of subtle blessings and peak experiences; this lunation could mark a ripening in your spiritual or political outlook, an educational milestone, or a travel experience that exceeds expectations—whether it’s a long-awaited trip or simply a memorable moment, it feels like finally seeing life on your terms. Mercury retrogrades November 9–29, stirring miscommunications with family and requiring careful conversations; Mercury conjunct Mars in Sagittarius on November 12 is a particularly challenging alignment—tensions peak, and conflicts could come to blows on the home front. Listen rather than lose your cool; you can’t take back harmful words. Traffic delays, reservation mix-ups, or family squabbles may intrude, but focus on the bigger picture: growth and new experiences await. November is also significant for partnerships: Saturn stations direct in your seventh house on November 27—its final lesson here before moving on. Reflect back to March 2023—how have your relationships evolved? Saturn demands we face reality—whether that meant staying and doing the work, or recognizing when to walk away; either choice requires courage, and the growth comes from seeing things as they truly are and honoring what you need.

Venus moves into Scorpio on November 6, exposing the truth about your finances—how money flows in, where it disappears, and whom you’re sharing resources with; the new and full moons amplify your financial awareness, making this an ideal time to audit your accounts. Mercury goes retrograde in Sagittarius on November 9, then collides with fiery Mars on November 12; this cosmic combustion turns group chats into minefields and casual agreements into regrets—resist the urge to fire off texts, commit to plans, or sign anything important. Say less, and wait. Mercury backpedals into Scorpio on November 18–29 through your second house of cash; hidden expenses surface—forgotten subscriptions, autopay renewals, and impulse buys you justified in the moment. Jupiter turns retrograde in Cancer on November 11, pumping the brakes on career momentum; instead of pushing forward, use this pause to strengthen professional relationships and refine ambitious projects you’ve been rushing. By November 27, Saturn stations direct, bringing the clarity and discipline you’ve been craving; it is your window to commit to work that genuinely excites you—or finally address the health and personal priorities you’ve been putting off. Master restraint now, and December will reward your patience.

November brings intensity and introspection. Mars, your ruler, moves into Sagittarius on November 3, energizing your finances—but watch your wallet. Mercury retrogrades from November 9–29, slipping back into your sign on November 18, creating potential for costly miscommunications; when impulsive Mars meets unreliable Mercury, especially around November 12, avoid major commitments or purchases. The full moon in Taurus on November 5 illuminates your relationships, surfacing what’s been simmering beneath; Venus enters Scorpio on November 6, amplifying your natural magnetism and inviting you to focus on pleasure, self-care, and what makes you feel alive. Jupiter stations retrograde on November 11, slowing the expansion you’ve experienced since June—travel plans, opportunities, and big ideas may pause, offering valuable time to process, reflect, and clarify your philosophical direction. The new moon in Scorpio on November 20 is your personal reset; this lunation feels restorative and empowering—use it to set intentions and decide what you’re building toward. This month asks you to balance action with patience: guard your resources during Mercury’s chaos, let relationships reveal themselves, and use Jupiter’s slowdown to get clear on where you’re actually headed.

November hits the ground running. Mars enters your sign on November 4, immediately locking horns with Uranus; expect relationship curveballs and plot twists you didn’t see coming, but once that cosmic dust settles, Mars fuels your drive through December 15, amplifying your courage, charisma, and ambition. Then Mercury goes rogue: its retrograde begins November 9 in your sign, colliding with Mars on November 12—words land harder than intended, and the urge to speak bluntly intensifies; not every truth needs a megaphone. Meanwhile, deeper currents pull you inward; Jupiter retrogrades November 11, and when Mercury backpedals into Scorpio on November 18, your subconscious becomes the main stage. Old fears surface; shadow patterns demand attention; therapy cuts deeper now; journaling reveals cycles you hadn’t noticed—what you uncover rewires how you show up. November 21 brings relief when the Sun enters Sagittarius, joining Mars in your sign; its aspects to Uranus and Neptune open unexpected possibilities, leaving you energized and clear about what comes next. November asks a lot of you, but it also gives you the energy and insight to meet the moment.

The Taurus full moon on November 5 brings something you’ve been building to completion—a creative project, a family matter, or a personal goal finally lands; even if the pressure’s been intense, pause to see how much ground you’ve actually covered. Mercury turns retrograde in Sagittarius on November 9 and immediately clashes with Mars on November 12; expect friction, crossed wires, and conversations that go sideways fast—the second week feels chaotic mentally, so don’t fire off responses you’ll regret. When Mercury slips back into Scorpio on November 18, you’ll start reconsidering your friendships and social circles; some people just won’t hit the same anymore, and that’s information worth having. Jupiter stations retrograde in Cancer on November 11, slowing down your most important relationships; it’s time to look clearly at what’s working and what’s dragging—maybe you need to talk things through, reset some boundaries, or simply acknowledge the ways you’re actually showing up for each other. Real beats ideal right now. By November 27, Saturn—your ruling planet—stations direct in Pisces, ending a cycle that started in March 2023; the hard lessons about speaking up and setting limits are finally settling, and you’ll feel the shift as things get quieter, steadier, and easier to navigate.

The Taurus full moon on November 5 brings you back to what feels solid when everything else shifts. Work and direction are in motion this month: Mercury turns retrograde on November 9 in Sagittarius, revisiting career conversations when it slips back into Scorpio on November 18; you may need to rethink how you’re showing up or repair a work relationship that’s gone sideways. Meanwhile, Jupiter’s retrograde in Cancer on November 11 slows the pace around health and daily work life, giving you time to integrate all the expansion since June—now is when supportive habits and helpful colleagues prove their worth. By November 20, the new moon and Venus in Scorpio bring clarity—you’ll see what’s resonating with others and where you need to pivot; it is your moment to step into greater visibility on your own terms. Saturn stations direct in Pisces to close the month, ending a long stretch of financial uncertainty; since 2023, income and resources have felt unpredictable, but this turning point reveals how much stronger you’ve become—you’ve learned to build security not by controlling everything, but by trusting you can always regain your footing.
