November horoscopes

Aries
21st March – 20th April
A lovely extended aspect between Venus and Mercury for the first half of November (especially around the 3rd) means anything related to travel or education turns into a truly beautiful adventure; again around 25th when new moon eclipse indicates new adventures to come, maybe with echoes of the past. Ruler Mars moves into problem-solving mode from the 11th, and gets at ‘to do’ lists with gusto. There’s also strong focus on cash and career, including around the 18th, a rare line-up of planets moving practical and productive energy between these areas of your life. It’s a particularly positive time, so make the most of it.

Taurus
21st April – 21st May
There’s a theme of trust, and being more trusting this month, and the key is resisting holding on to what you fear to lose; it’s a repeating theme through events in various ways and it seems to link strongly to communication. Around the 18th there’s a beautiful line-up of planets, including Jupiter in your sign, encouraging you to be more of yourself more of the time, and opportunities abound to do so. From the 25th you might be backtracking on an issue that requires your trust; wanting to take your time and gather more info seems appropriate for now.

Gemini
22nd May – 21st June
Big month for relationships; it includes all relationships, partnerships, contracts and agreements, but there’s an extra smile for romance, as Venus and your ruler Mercury join forces for an extended period up to midmonth. On the 23rd Mercury moves retrograde (appears to move backward), which means you’re taking the scenic rather than the shortest route to solve issues. There’s also an adventurous new moon eclipse in this area of your chart on the 25th indicating significant new beginnings in the process of growing and unfolding now that have long-term impact for the future.

Cancer
22nd June – 22nd July
Up to midmonth, problems are melting like lemon drops as Venus and Mercury bring some strong and sweet solutions to issues, especially around the 3rd when sudden ideas and impulses to make career moves pay off big time. Around 18th there’s an easy flow of energy around friendship, romance and communication which leads to expansion, opportunity and transformation. Mercury retrograde from the 23rd suggests that coming from a different perspective or angle on a stuck situation might loosen up the energy, and a faith-filled new moon eclipse on the 25th helps you stay positive toward tricky work relationships end of month.


Leo
23rd July – 23rd August
A challenging aspect between Mars and Neptune involves your sign on the 6th, and suggests it’s easy to feel undermined or ignored in certain relationships right now. Before you imagine your actions or efforts come to nowt, examine your tendency to imagine the worst, as Neptune amplifies both dreams and nightmares. In other words, appearances can be particularly deceptive right now, and seem to match how you feel about things regardless of facts. Rise to the wildly positive vibes around the 18th, which have a special focus on your career and long-term ambition. It’s seriously positive, especially for expansion plans.


Virgo
24th August – 22nd September
Your comfort zone gets a few prods and pushes this month as there’s plenty of good opportunities to expand horizons into the unfamiliar and unknown. Motivated Mars moves into your sign from the 6th, which helps hold the courage of your convictions (especially approx 18th and 24th), and once Mercury begins its retrograde phase from the 23rd there’s a strong focus on home, family, or those that feel like family, with a feeling of reconnection, reunion or possible relocation. There’s a sweet harmony in love up to midmonth, especially with communication, and an unpredictable but fun vibe around 27th.


Libra
23rd September – 23rd October
Up to midmonth is an exceptional time for communication, with your ruler Venus moving in close harmony with Mercury for an extended period. Mercury retrogrades on the 23rd (appears to move backwards) which might change your perspective or the direction of yours or another’s thoughts and words, but it won’t undo anything you have achieved earlier in the month. Around the 18th there’s a rare line-up of planets encouraging a deep sense of trust and faith in situations even with all the unknown factors you’re dealing with right now. It’s not misplaced trust either.

Scorpio
24th October – 22nd November
Finances and resources are a focus up to midmonth; a lovely extended meeting between Venus and Mercury in this area of your chart means communication goes well and gives you reason to keep the faith. Mercury retrogrades (appears to move backwards) from the 23rd, but don’t be fooled into thinking things really are in reverse, and the new moon eclipse here on the 25th is for feeling more faith about what’s to come. Meanwhile there’s a really fabulous aspect around the 18th that expands, deepens and moves all relationships in the right direction, and especially in romance.


Sagittarius
23rd November – 21st December
Wow, what a month for Sag. Positive vibes abound, beginning with a lengthy meeting between Venus and Mercury in your sign till the 10th, which means sweet harmony in your communication (very creative and unusually entertaining too, around the 3rd). Cash and career get a helping hand from the universe around the 18th, then Sun moves into your sign on the 23rd, putting you in the spotlight. Mercury retrogrades in your sign same day, helping you reconnect with aspects of yourself you thought lost or left behind, and a new moon eclipse on the 25th, also in your sign, sets strong intentions for self-belief.

Capricorn
22nd December – 20th January
Venus and Mercury bring sweet dreams till the 10th (and maybe some inspired solutions around the 3rd). Cash flow takes some imagination around the 6th, and a friendship filled full moon on the 10th feels fun. There’s more enjoyment from midmonth when real opportunities come into view for expansion, transformation and regeneration. Nothing pie in the sky here; ideas are solid and grounded and built to last. Overall for November, whenever you trust the process rather than fear the unknown, the reward is refreshment and renewal.

Aquarius
21st January – 18th February
There’s a fabulous vibe around groups and gatherings this month, so there’s more friendship and fun to be had, as well as it being a great time for networking and making good connections; and reconnecting too, as Mercury retrogrades from the 23rd, bringing you back in tune with faces and places from the past, in a new way. In a general sense, November requires you to rely on intuition and gut instinct maybe more than usual, but the benefits and opportunities that come from this are worth the struggle to stop second-guessing yourself.

Pisces
19th February – 20th March
This is a totally brilliant month for career and/or long term plans and ambitions: you’ve charismatic communication that might bring sudden and unexpected financial benefits or opportunities for moving forward in new ways, and you’ve the courage of your convictions that makes you bolder and more assertive with others. Mercury retrograde from the 23rd might put you in touch with ideas or opportunities from the past you thought lost, and an eclipse on the 25th supports your desire for it all to feel like a fabulous adventure
