This is a month of creative artistic expression for you, Cancer, with implications for a necessary transformation of what you do in terms of vocational direction. This latter has been a bubbling caldron for many months, or perhaps a better metaphor might be a rocking cradle of new birth that is yet to fully manifest. The very potent Scorpio New Moon that begins the November month represents new beginnings in creative self-expression with implications for your societal contribution and also for key relationships that take you further along your intended evolutionary path. There are inner world factors to all this, so that integration is called for, between conscious and unconscious elements within you, to the extent that you can manage that. The First Quarter Moon of November 8th may bring new tensions to bear as you seek to reconcile your inner moral compass with outer world success on several different levels, including internally. The Full Moon a week later, taking place on the 15th in your social sector of friendships, group affiliations, and future goals, makes for another powerful junction urging you toward a more stable amalgam of inner and outer and you move closer to your next evolutionary stage.

The month of November begins with intensity as the Scorpio New Moon takes place early on the 1st, featuring a powerful opposition between Mars and Pluto, plus a grand trine in Water signs between Mercury in Scorpio, Neptune in Pisces, and Mars in the final degree of your sign. This latter planetary formation presages that all through the November month there will be an emphasis on an energetic thought process that includes a mystical element as a significant part of its functioning. Saturn, the ruler of your partnership sector, is trined by the New Moon, indicating that key partners in your life will play a strong role is the way that the month continues to unfold. Your relationship with your children or with a creative project could also be shifting and you may have to spend more time and energy on the things that you care the most about this month while also needing to reconcile your workload.
Mercury’s entry into Sagittarius on the 2nd signals the beginning of an extended period of time of Mercury’s presence there, in your sector of habitual activities, so that you may need to manage your time and effort more efficiently and be mindful to not take on more than you can handle. Mercury is due to station to retrograde motion on November 25th, and will not finally escape its post-retrograde shadow until the very end of December.
On November 11th, Venus enters Capricorn, blessing your relationship sector with her presence which may bring a greater desire to demonstrate your affection to those you care about or to relate in general.
On the 11th and 12th, Mercury in Sagittarius forms its first of three squares with Saturn in Pisces which may bring attention to your current workload and the tasks that are needed for you to pursue an objective. You may have to be more deliberate about your time and your schedule in order to get everything done at this time. Mercury in retrograde will square Saturn again in December and once more as it recovers after December 15th.
The Taurus Full Moon on the 15th culminates in the social sector of your chart that relates to your dreams and your aspirations, along with your friendships and the group activities you favor. A culmination process may be well underway or you may gain wider recognition within your community for your ground-breaking approaches in your work. In this Full Moon configuration, Trickster Uranus is closely conjunct the Moon. Surprises are likely as are revelations about new goals that you had not previously considered. Saturn stationing direct on the same day implies that the fruits of your labor could be paying off in some ways and be integrated more concretely in the months to come.
On the 17th and 18th, Mercury in Sagittarius opposing Jupiter in Gemini energizes your thought process, including intuitive information that comes to you from deep inside. This could also could emphasize the need for reflection before you can proceed ahead, particularly in regards to your current vocational trajectory.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st which could bring attention to your work and health routines. Aspecting Pluto, newly in Aquarius as it does so, implies also that personal transformation continues to be a powerful factor as you enter these last ten days of November. The Last Quarter Moon takes place on the very the next day, of the 22nd, and may emphasize places where you feel that you conscious awareness needs to grow.
Mercury turning retrograde in Sagittarius on the 25th give you an introspective period of time to end the November month. Mercury stions direct of the 15th of December, and then recovers until the end of the year.
This continues to be a progressive time for you when you will be reflecting seriously on where life is taking you right now. You might decide that you need to be more deliberate about your time and energy investments as one key to your future success.
