November’s astrology brings a sigh of relief and the end of both Mercury and Venus retrogrades! The month starts out with the Sun finishing up its journey through Scorpio, putting you in a more introspective mood. The next few weeks help you dive deep, explore your own shadow side, and face fears with more grace all while reclaiming your power in the process. It’s emotional work, but also rewarding. You might also navigate themes of reciprocity, intimacy, and security in various areas of your life, as well.
The month begins with a sneak peek into 2027 thanks to Mars entering its pre-retrograde shadow period in Leo on November 5. In January, Mars will go retrograde in the signs of both Leo and Virgo but, for now, you have the cosmic gift of picking up certain clues and topics regarding your personal retrograde story. Pay extra close attention to issues that frustrate you, where you’ve declined to act when maybe you should have, and how you expend your effort and energy. Some of these topics will resurface for retooling and reflection once the retrograde kicks off early next year.
A New Moon in Scorpio on November 8 helps you release control and spend time with the emotions you reject or ignore. You might brush up against feelings of guilt, shame, or fear in some way, but also recognize an opportunity to evolve, heal, be accountable, and show up in a renewed way. Bonds and connections navigate intimate waters, and require honesty and help you establish trust or leave unhealthy dynamics that don’t deserve your energy.
November 13 ushers in a massive turning point with both Mercury retrograde and Venus retrograde ending on the same day! Mercury stations direct in Scorpio, revealing truths and requiring you to navigate in the subterranean and unknown. Conversations you’ve avoided in the past require your full attention and honesty. Decisions you make might feel a bit more high stakes, but choosing to embrace your fear and share your feelings can strengthen a bond, too. Venus stations direct in Libra and ends its retrograde, shining a spotlight on your close relationships. Should you stay or should you go—now is the time to make your decision! You’re feeling more confident about how you want to move forward in all connections, contracts, and client relationships, too.
You’re engaging in a heroic effort when Mars in Leo forms a conjunction with Jupiter in Leo on November 15. You could reach a personal goal, make a ton of progress toward something meaningful, or embody a confidence and courage that reminds you of who you are! There’s momentum today and you can choose to wield it however you see fit. The Sun enters Sagittarius on November 21, inviting you to embrace your adventurous side. The next few weeks remind you that life is meant to be experienced. Get in the driver’s seat and ditch your comfort zone! Book that one-way ticket, learn a new language, buy a tarot deck—open yourself up to new experiences and perspectives.
There’s a Full Moon in Gemini on November 24 that’s full of shock and surprise! Conversations that have been building over time reach a turning point and new information is revealed. You could make an important decision or learn news that is unexpected. New developments today are exciting, inspiring, innovative, and destabilizing. You might also have a bit of an overactive mind and find it hard to quell your thoughts–engage in grounding exercises when you can! This also gives you a desire to get more involved in your local community, finding ways to make connections and share some of your skills, gifts, and wisdom with those around you.
On November 25, Mars enters Virgo, lending you extra precision. Remember: Mars will eventually go retrograde in Virgo, too, beginning in January 2027, so pay attention to what’s coming up for you over the next few weeks. As Mars travels through Virgo, you’re acting with more strategy and paying more attention to the small habits you keep daily because you know they are what build the life you desire. Words can become weapons as Mars travels through Virgo, so be aware of the fights you pick and the information you consume.
The month wraps up with some helpful news when Venus in Libra mingles with Jupiter in Leo on November 28. This energy feels like a cosmic kiss from above! You’re making progress, feeling supported, and having fun along the way. This helps you embody gratitude and be present for joy and connection in your world. You might feel extra confident today, creatively inspired, or courageous stand up for what you believe in. The Universe wants to give you a reward, but first you must meet it halfway!
