Capricorn
This is another quite dicey month for you, Capricorn, with outer planet impacts still present and with inner planet retrogrades affecting your social sector in the midst of an introspective period. There is activity within your sector of career and professional life, with something of a strain on your vocational concerns. You may well be questioning facets of what you do out in the world, perhaps looking into how that could become better aligned with what you most deeply believe. You are likely to be in a reflective mode this month that also affects the way you see your friendships and group affiliations continuing to evolve. Your long-term goals are likely more up in the air than they were a month ago. Your resources and values, including financial ones, are unmistakably evolving. The Scorpio New Moon of November 8th may initiate new wrinkles in the retrograde slow-down, plus adjustments. There could also be a further shift when Mercury and Venus simultaneously station direct on the 13th. Since they are then hardly moving, the retrograde symptoms persist for at least two more weeks, gradually tapering off. Because Mercury at the moment of its station aspects Saturn, your ruler, there is a decided emphasis in this latter timing on deep contemplation; you could be wondering where you might be headed as this crazy year unwinds. Then, the 17th marks the First Quarter Moon in your sector of values and resources, potentially making waves with finances, and with the higher purpose of understanding your true values. The very powerful Full Moon of the 24th brings the transformational effects of Uranus and Pluto back in play, and greatly increases the pressure on all these areas, including habitual behaviors that may be out of step with who you now are, or are becoming.

Mercury Cazimi in Scorpio – November 4th
An early conversation over morning coffee with a friend or professional contact could spark a useful idea about your future plans. With Mercury in the heart of the Sun, and in Scorpio, you might view a group dynamic more clearly, identify a promising connection, or develop a more strategic approach to a long-term goal you’ve been working toward.
New Moon in Scorpio – November 8th
Under this emotionally potent New Moon in your social sector, your approach to long-term goals – and to the people you pursue them with – could make for a fresh start. An emerging aspiration may be ready to take root. Mars, the ruler of this New Moon, also comes cutting in from your sector of depth research, psychological shadows and shared resources, guaranteeing energy for intimacy and for attempting to better understand yourself and your important relationships below the surface layers. A collaboration could perhaps raise uncomfortable questions between you, with an emphasis on getting to the truth at the bottom of things. With the Moon in her fall, voicing these frustrations could feel harder than usual, so that resentment as well as intense reflection over partnership issues could manifest. Jupiter’s presence conjunct Mars could amplify this tension, yet also bring opportunity, so there could be unexpectedly positive outcomes in the long run, or a form of rebirth for key partnerships. Honest conversations about what you need and what you’re willing to share are likely to lay the groundwork for alliances built to last.
Venus and Mercury Stationing Direct – November 13th
Conversations with friends or collaborators may slowly begin moving forward as both Mercury and Venus station direct on the same day. This may involve revisiting a shared plan or making progress toward a longer-term goal. If group dynamics have felt tricky, issues may begin to clear up now and over the next two weeks of Mercury’s post-retrograde shadow period. Venus stationing direct in your career sector, which it also rules, is likely to begin fostering goodwill with someone in authority or bringing more grace and success to a professional negotiation. You may also feel more prepared to pursue an opportunity or address an imbalance on the job. Someone in your network might start to champion your work!
Sun square Mars, Jupiter + South Node Conjunction – November 15th-21st
All this week, Mars and Jupiter conjoin the South Lunar Node in your sector of intimacy, depth exploration, and shared resources which could heighten partnership desire springing from deep inside you, enhance sexual experiences, or encourage moves involving shared money with key partnerships. There may be an old psychological pattern or an emotional tie from past life experiences that has run its course and needs to change. Resources shared with someone may be celebrated or energized. The Sun’s presence in Scorpio puts your friendships and long-term goals in the spotlight, so a friend’s needs or group commitment could compete with a partner for your attention. Choosing to release what feels depleting or outdated might be rewarding, opening the way for something better.
Sun Enters Sagittarius – November 22nd
As the Sun slips into Sagittarius, your sector of retreat, unconscious process, and inner work, you may crave more solitude and quiet reflection in these next few weeks. You might feel drawn to spend more time away from public demands, reflect on personal matters, or better investigate habits that typically operate beneath your awareness. A broader perspective on these private struggles could help you recognize where a different approach is needed.
Sun trine Neptune – November 22nd-24th
You may feel pulled to spend time at home or reflect on family history – helping you approach a private struggle with greater compassion or emotional understanding. A spiritual component might emerge. You might feel more willing to forgive a relative or revisit an old memory with a softer perspective. A nostalgic view of the past could soften harder truths that are worth looking into.
Sun opposed Uranus, sextile Pluto – November 23rd-26th
During this short transit, just when you may prefer to work quietly behind the scenes, or get in some alone time, an abrupt change at your job or a shake-up in your routine could thrust you back into motion. The Sun opposing Uranus could also prompt you to rethink ways in which you have been sacrificing your energy, and the shift could prove liberating. The Sun’s sextile to Pluto is likely to help you dig deep within yourself to notice where your time and money are going, and to what end. This offers you the chance to redirect toward what truly supports you.
Full Moon in Gemini – November 24th
The duties you shoulder each day, and the strain they may place on your body, could come to a head under the Gemini Full Moon in your sixth sector of service and day-to-day habitual patterns. The Moon’s alignment with Uranus could additionally bring up unexpected events or revelations concerning your habits or work environment such as a sudden schedule change, or news that disrupts your usual routines. Though unsettling, this could also nudge you toward making changes in support of a way of living and working that suits you better. Due to Mercury, ruler of the Gemini Full Moon, residing currently in Scorpio, your social sector, and recovering from its recent retrograde, you may realize how your daily tasks could better serve your dreams and long-term ambitions. This Full Moon represents a strong juncture with ideals and transformation lurking in the wings. A greater spiritual component may appear in connection with home and family matters. You might recognize how a friendship could be celebrated or need to be adjusted. The Sun and Moon in flowing aspect with Pluto in Aquarius indicates an opportunity to respond with purpose, perhaps by protecting your energy as a valuable resource, or better recognizing your own self-worth, perhaps including that you deserve more than you may have been receiving.
Mars Enters Virgo – November 25th
You may feel a strong desire to sharpen or share your knowledge with a steady determination as Mars ingresses your sector of beliefs and worldview. Travel plans may receive greater attention although, if on a trip, conflicts could arise. Debates about beliefs might turn critical unless you can temper your impulses with a tad of caution.
Venus opposite Chiron – November 25th-29th
Professional matters may have been flowing more smoothly lately, with Venus in your career sector shaking off her retrograde. However, as Venus briefly opposes Chiron, you may become emotionally uncomfortable in some way. It could be that insecurities about your domestic dynamics interrupt your vocational momentum or cause you to reflect on healing old wounds.
Sun trine Saturn – November 28th-30th
You may run into obstacles or benefit from having more time and space to yourself, particularly if you are carrying responsibilities that leave little room for rest. Saturn's support could help you establish firmer boundaries at home or with family, making it easier to protect your privacy without neglecting important commitments. You might also feel more prepared to address a long-standing domestic concern privately, especially if you've reached a more realistic understanding of what you can actually change.
