It’s not all rainbows and sunshine – but it is transformational if you let it.
November opens with big expectations and bold energy, then quickly reminds us that growth rarely, if ever, unfolds without friction. Venus and Jupiter, Mars and Uranus, Mercury and Pluto, and of course Saturn and Neptune all play starring roles in a month where benefic promises, disruptive shocks, and deep emotional work swirl together. The test is to ground the storm, and ourselves. This is a month of trials and revelations, asking us to shed illusions, confront manipulations and shadow truths, and root into the emotional depth that the water signs provide.
Early November: High Hopes, Sudden Shocks
Nov 2 – Venus square Jupiter (25° Libra/Cancer)
Venus in Libra squares Jupiter in Cancer, both dignified. It looks lush and promising, but benefics in a square can inflate expectations beyond reality. Opportunity is real; disillusionment is possible if we’ve been chasing a fairytale without practical edges. Laws and regulations concerning women, reproductive rights, and other feminine-centered issues may also take center stage.
Nov 3 – Mars trine Neptune (29° Scorpio/Pisces)
A cutting-away trine at the anaretic degree. Mars in Scorpio brings raw intensity; Neptune in Pisces adds intuition and collective awareness. Something emotional may need release, an ending that liberates you to move forward at last.
Nov 4 – Mars enters Sagittarius; opposes Uranus (0° Sag/Gemini)
Sparks fly. Fiery ideology meets disruptive information. Expect arguments, protests, or sudden surprises in education, law, and communications. Headlines could shock, then clear stale air.
Nov 5 – Full Moon in Taurus (13°)
This Full Moon spotlights safety, comfort, and pleasure. Under Scorpio season’s penetrating gaze, ask: What possessions, relationships, or habits do I cling to for stability? What has gone stagnant and needs excising so balance and safety can return, even amid uncertainty?
Nov 6 – Mars sextile Pluto; Venus enters Scorpio
After Uranus’s jolt, Mars connects with Pluto, endurance + transformative will. Venus leaves Libra for Scorpio: money, love, and desire go deeper. Raw, magnetic, unflinching.
Nov 7 – Venus square Pluto; Uranus re-enters Taurus
Intensity peaks. Obsession, control, and power dynamics can surface in love/finance; collective concerns about women’s safety amplify. Uranus’s return to Taurus reopens unfinished business around resources, values, and stability. Ground you thought was firm may shift again.
Mid-November: Retrogrades, Revelations, and the Turning Tide
Nov 8 – Sun trine North Node (16° Scorpio/Pisces)
A gentle opening. The Sun aligns with destiny’s thread; intuition gets louder.
Nov 9 – Mercury stations retrograde (6° Sagittarius)
Communication slows or skews. Big-picture Sag clashes with Mercury’s details. Slow down, double-check, back up files, and proof your messages.
Nov 11 – Jupiter stations retrograde (25° Cancer)
Home, protection, and growth themes return for review. In a tight square to Chiron, we weigh independence against security. What’s the true cost of protecting what we love?
Nov 12 – Mercury conjunct Mars (6° Sagittarius)
Words cut sharp; debates flare. Dogma dominates or laws come under sudden review. Fiery speech, rapid judgments, breathe before you hit send.
The Power Week: November 17–22
This stretch lands like a drumroll: one aspect after another, intensity layered with illumination.
Nov 17 – Grand Water Trine
Sun in Scorpio trines Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Pisces: a surge of stabilizing emotional clarity. Mercury sextile Plutoreopens conversations we thought were closed.
Nov 18 – Mercury re-enters Scorpio
Fire back into water. Details, secrets, and nuance resurface. We see what we missed—and how to fix it.
Nov 19 – Venus trine North Node; Mercury opp Uranus; Mercury trine Neptune
Chaos meets clarity. Shocking news or revelations arrive, but intuition (not logic alone) guides the exact “Death Star exhaust port” move.
Nov 20 – Mercury cazimi (28° Scorpio); New Moon in Scorpio
The heart of the month. Secrets illuminate; endings clear space for rebirth. Sit in the dark, trust the unseen, lean into transformation. Uranus sextile Neptune hints at tech/dream awakenings, some may even experience out-of-body states.
Nov 21 – Sun opp Uranus; Sun trine Neptune
A jolt out of complacency; a soft landing through surrender. Release what can’t be held.
Nov 22 – Mercury trine Saturn & Jupiter (Grand Water Trine redux)
Integration and grounding. Words, contracts, and insights mature.
Late November: Closing Doors, Opening Others
Nov 23 – Sun sextile Pluto
Secrets and alliances sharpen into focus.
Nov 24 – Mars square Nodes; Venus conjunct Mercury
A karmic crossroads. Cut away outdated beliefs in law, ideology, or dogma. Venus–Mercury reveals truths in love or money.
Nov 26 – Venus trine Jupiter & Saturn
Healing, stabilizing connections. What felt raw begins to harmonize and solidify.
Nov 27 – Saturn stations direct (12° Pisces)
Boundaries and commitments clarify. Lessons crystallize.
Nov 29 – Venus opp Uranus (29° Scorpio/Taurus)
Shockwaves in relationships or finances. Something must give.
Nov 30 – Venus trine Neptune; Venus enters Sagittarius
Grace and closure. Venus leaves Scorpio’s intensity for lightness and outreach.
Themes of November
- Illusions vs. reality — Venus/Jupiter square + Mercury retrograde show where expectations inflated beyond truth.
- Secrets illuminated — Scorpio New Moon + Mercury cazimi bring what’s hidden to light.
- Shocks to stability — Uranus in Taurus unsettles what seemed unshakable.
- Emotional integration — Recurring water trines offer healing if we feel deeply, set boundaries, and honor personal truth.
✨ November is not a month for half-measures. It calls for full awareness, letting go where we must, speaking truth even when it shakes the foundations we’ve fought to protect, and surrendering to endings that make fertile soil for what’s next.
