Overview
November arrives with winds blowing from all directions — an energetic climate that can feel both invigorating and chaotic if we’re not centered. With Uranus retrograding back into Taurus (11/7), Mercury retrograde (11/9–11/29), Jupiter beginning its retrograde (11/11–3/10/26), and Saturn turning direct (11/27), we’re revisiting old territory. This is a cosmic review period — a chance to clear out remaining baggage before stepping fully into a new cycle.
Last month carried the theme of sealing the shift — recognizing and confirming our new direction through synchronicity and intuitive alignment. Now, November continues that process, asking us to release what’s outdated or restrictive so we can move forward unburdened.
Early Month: Mars Opposes Uranus — Disruption as Catalyst
In the first week, Mars enters Sagittarius and opposes Uranus retrograde in Gemini, igniting sudden changes or revelations that shake up our rhythm. Mars, ruling action and drive, is looking toward Jupiter in Cancer (8th house), which forms a square with Venus in Libra (11th house) — a configuration that can stir unexpected developments in relationships and alliances. These may be triggered by shifts in daily life, responsibilities, or personal priorities.
As mentioned in last month’s forecast, Mars continues to activate Chiron in Aries, a long-term influence lasting until April 2027. Over the next several months, recurring themes may surface, prompting closure or healing. It’s a bit like moving house — it’s not just about packing boxes, but wrapping up loose ends: logistics, emotional attachments, and lingering responsibilities. It can feel like an endless to-do list, but this process has an endpoint and purpose.
The Mars–Uranus opposition asks us to break free from patterns or partnerships that drain our vitality. This can be uncomfortable, but it clears space for more authentic and reciprocal connections. With the Moon in Taurus (5th) squaring Pluto (2nd) and Jupiter (8th), emotional or financial insecurities may be tested, but courage will be rewarded.
Keep your focus on Venus in Libra, strong in her home sign and placed in the 11th house of community and ideals. Ask yourself: What relationships feel balanced and mutually supportive? Which align with your long-term goals and service to the collective? Choose the direction that points to growth and the future. Let the shake-ups show you where freedom is calling.
Mid-Month: Venus Trine North Node — Flow, Integration, and Expansion
Around November 18, Venus forms a trine to the North Node, a supportive aspect that encourages natural alignment with our soul’s direction. At the same time, Jupiter and Saturn form a wide trine that, with the Sun, creates a loose grand water trine. This gentle yet powerful pattern helps us integrate the emotional and spiritual lessons of the past few months.
Venus in Scorpio trine the North Node in Pisces suggests that when we face our fears, we unlock new levels of growth and expansion. The water trine opens an energetic channel for transformation — particularly in areas of security, self-worth, and purpose.
For some, this may manifest as new professional or financial opportunities, especially those linked to past contacts or earlier efforts. With multiple retrogrades in play, progress may require patience and back-and-forth adjustments. Yet the doors opening now are ones we’ve been preparing for.
For others, this energy supports inner transformation — a change in lifestyle, health, or mindset that strengthens your confidence from the inside out. The overall chart speaks of synchronistic support — the universe meeting you halfway as you step toward your next chapter. While the Moon in Scorpio can bring up fear or intensity, the water trines remind us that emotional flow, not resistance, is the way through.
Late Month: Venus Trine Jupiter — Quiet Integration and Spiritual Renewal
As the month closes, Venus forms trines to Jupiter and Saturn/Neptune, creating another grand water trine while Mars squares the Nodes. The overall tone softens considerably. With Venus, the Sun, and Mars in the 12th house, this is a time for reflection, rest, and quiet processing of all that has shifted throughout the month.
On Thanksgiving (11/27), the Moon in Pisces forms a mutual reception with Jupiter in Cancer, infusing the day with compassion, connection, and a sense of spiritual belonging. It’s an energy that celebrates shared humanity and gentle presence. Avoid overextending yourself or getting caught up in busyness — outer results matter less than inner attunement now. Keep plans simple, flexible, and heartfelt.
In this stillness, we can hear the universe more clearly — not through loud signs, but through subtle resonance and peace. Sometimes, nothing needs to be said; the silence itself carries the message. This is a beautiful and exalted vibration for those who choose to slow down and tune in.
Closing Thoughts
November brings us full circle through cycles of release, integration, and quiet renewal. Early in the month, we face the tension of letting go; mid-month brings flow and potential; and by the end, a sense of peace begins to settle in.
Old themes may reappear for resolution, but their purpose is to clear the path for a more aligned and meaningful future. As the month draws to a close, we reconnect to the universal rhythm — that subtle hum reminding us that we are never truly separate from the greater whole.
As we move toward the holiday season of 2025, may this month offer both clarity and calm — a moment to realign with your inner compass before the next big turning of the wheel.
Until next time, have a grounded and inspired November.
Love & Blessings 🌸
