Your talent as a leader and a partner could be emphasized these days thanks to the November’s lunar cycle which started with the recent New Moon in Libra from October. This could indicate an extreme focus on your career choices and their implications for your life in general going forward, involving those dealing with important others. There also the ongoing transformation of your values and resources, including your financial ones, stemming from the presence in that sector of Pluto, highlighted this month, and additionally a set of sudden changes or realizations in the area of your sense of service to others, and to your true life mission. Saturn, your ruler, still conjunct Neptune at the edge of your home and family sector implies a degree of uncertainty or confusion in this area that might be able to be resolved with concerted effort. Because Jupiter is in close square – as well – with Chiron, the Wounded Healer, there is also the potential for inner wounding to come up in regard to your home situation, or with your dwelling. One saving grace in all this might be intuitional information that seems to come to you almost unbidden, and yet can tell you the truth if you can remain open to the possibility of a helpful message arriving in this way.
As a Capricorn, your diplomatic skills typically hide an extremely ambitious nature; people who know you well understand that although you may appear as gentle as a lamb. As the saying goes, catching more flies with honey than with vinegar could be another secret to your success at this time.
On November 1st and 2nd, Venus in Libra forming an opposition with Chiron in Aries and a square with Jupiter in Cancer could bring up insecurities but there could also be an opportunity for closure. Complex relational dynamics are now emphasized so that it might be good to write things down or talk things through with a close friend to process what’s on your mind.
On the 4th, Mars in Scorpio forms a trine with Neptune in Pisces before entering Sagittarius and opposing Uranus in Gemini which could bring tension to the surface if you don’t have a positive outlet to channel it. Mars with Uranus in tight opposition like this is a somewhat dangerous aspect – especially if there is a lack of impulse control. This early November week is a good time to recognize that you cannot always count on every sudden idea being a good one.
The Full Moon land is Taurus on November 5th culminating in the part of your chart that relates to creativity and self-expression as well as romance, pleasure, and more extensively, any children you may be in connection with. This Full Moon relates to key projects, with additional focus on their reception in the wider community to which you belong. This powerful lunation could also emphasize your desires to just go out and have fun and it might be a wonderful moment to let your passions and your epicurean side take the lead. Your creativity may be highlighted or even celebrated, so it pays not to hide your talents and rather to let the world benefit from your creative and enterprising spirit.
Venus enters Scorpio on the 6th, and this could bring attention to your social circles with an emphasis on connecting up with interesting people and venues. Venus forming a square with Pluto in Aquarius from the 6th to on the 8th brings transformational change to your relationships and to your partnering dynamic in general. This also could be your cue to get out of the beaten path. You could feel a stronger pull towards unusual subcultural trends and communities that are innovative in some ways.
Mercury turns retrograde in Sagittarius on the 9th and relational dynamics along with your coping mechanism around them could be emphasized in some ways during this period although you may prefer to ignore something to which you have no answers for the time being. There is an introspective mode that you find yourself in, perhaps specifically about inner work or your social setup, including friends and groups that you favor. Your goals could also be coming into question over the next five to six weeks. You may prefer to keep yourself busy but you might also need to slow down and smell the flowers.
On the 11th, Jupiter station retrograde, becoming more potent and simultaneously squaring Eris in Aries and also Chiron. You could be meditating on your pathway forward and any stand that you might be taking for a better world, and inner wounding might again come up, for examination and healing. As Mercury forms a conjunction with Mars in Sagittarius on the 11th and 12th, there is a ton of energy for these considerations. This may emphasize any inner restlessness stemming from unresolved conflicts.
Mercury retrogrades back into Scorpio on the 18th and the aura of your reflective process there might similarly shift.
The New Moon in late Scorpio takes place on the late evening of November 19th, or early on the 20th, depending on time zone. This is a potent lunation and sends a powerful reset for the part of your chart that relates to your visions, your aspirations and your connection to friends and communities. Mercury reaching the halfway point of its retrograde cycle at this same timing, being exactly conjunct the Sun and Moon, indicates that insights or clarity is available and for you it may have something to do with inner work on yourself, plus your social milieu and the future goal that inspires you the most. Jupiter in Cancer along with Saturn and Neptune in Pisces are forming supportive aspects to this lunation which may emphasize inspiring dialogues and collaborations that could be in the works. Uranus in Taurus opposing the New Moon creates surprising scenarios and unexpected new ideas and could also your cue to let your creative impulses lead the way.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on the 21st which may be your opportunity to reassess all that you are holding inside yourself. Symbolically, it’s the end of a yearly cycle for you, based on your birthday, and a good moment to be taking stock of your overall direction.
Venus in Scorpio is quite busy during the last week of November forming a conjunction with Mercury Retrograde on the 24th, a grand trine with Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn in Pisces, plus connecting with Neptune on the 26th.
On the 29th there is a Venus opposition with Uranus as she shifts signs into Sagittarius. This sequence may emphasize vocational collaborations that are in the works along with creative projects. Inspiration could arrive based on conversations you are having with a range of people and you could also benefit from exposing yourself to various art forms, music and culture in general.
Towards the end of the month as well, something could be taking off or become more tangible as both Saturn in Pisces and Mercury in Scorpio turn direct. Whatever is simmering at this time should feel exciting even if the shape of it is not clearly defined. Mercury gradually sheds the symptoms of its retrograde period over the next two and a half weeks of December.
