ASTROLOGICAL FORECAST: NOVEMEBER 2025
November is, as many of you know, the month of Scorpio and a variety of cultures celebrate death and transformation throughout the month. Scorpio rules the underworld, depth, intensity, sex, renewal, cycles of life and death. I like to think that Scorpio also rules alchemy and invites us to look at the more obscure parts of ourselves, where we dare not venture too often. As Carl Gustav Jung (an aficionado of shadow work himself) said, the gold of our spiritual and psychological gifts is found in the prima materiae, the dark, chaotic rejected parts of the psyche. After all, Scorpio also rules rebirth and regeneration too.
So happy Spooky Season to everyone and I hope you enjoy the shadow work!
On November 5 the full moon occurs in Taurus, Scorpio’s sister sign. Full moons in Taurus during Scorpio season reminds us that while the cycles of life, death and rebirth occur, there are also areas in our life where we experience continuity, stability, reliability and even maybe some form of tradition amidst change, perhaps reminding us not to take their grounding virtues for granted.
The new moon in Scorpio on November 20 will, on the contrary, invite us to fully embrace deep transformation, emotional renewal and letting go of control.
This year, the month of November is fully marked by Mercury retrograde! Mercury goes retrograde in Sagittarius on November 9 until November 18 and then in Scorpio until November 29. You are invited to double-check everything, proof-read, be mindful of details, logistics and not assume things will go smoothly. Mercury retrograde is not a bad transit per se, and if things get delayed, malfunction or if there are changes of plan, these may also be auspicious redirections. With Mercury retrograding in Sagittarius, travels and higher studies might be especially affected by glitches. While in Scorpio, it can trigger even deeper contemplation of our own depths, pushing us to touch upon our subconscious blockages.
On November 8, Uranus turns back into the sign of Taurus until April 2026. Uranus has been in the sign of Gemini since July 7, accelerating, innovating, changing the way we communicate, interact with others, how we use information, social media platforms, humor or how we choose and invest in our neighborhoods. This is now on pause. As of November, Uranus will be back in Taurus for one last time. We have now a few months to reassess the Uranus in Taurus era (2018-2025) and we can reconsider how we have transformed, innovated, aligned with higher values our relationship to consumption, nature, pleasure and the indulgence of the senses. I really like to think of the Uranus in Taurus era as the era where we have experienced an environmental awakening as a society and realized the toll capitalist consumerism has on the planet for example, aligning our purchases to our ideals (veganism, organic food, local consumerism etc.)
On the November 11, Jupiter turns retrograde in Cancer until March 2026. Jupiter has been in Cancer since June 2025. Where Cancer falls in our chart, we have received nourishment, auspicious support that helped our growth and expansion during this summer. Now is a time to reassess. Where has life been a helpful nourishing place for us? Which areas are still growing? Where do we still need nourishment? This is a time to stop, appreciate and envisage what we would like future growth to look like.
On November 21 starts Sagittarius season! After having learned the lessons of our shadows, have fully transformed and are reborn, we can reemerge to daylight, broaden our horizons and expand under Sagittarius auspices, which I like to call the Winter Sun
Last but not least, a variety of “Grand Water Trines” occurs between the end of October to mi-November involving Jupiter in Cancer, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces and a shifting group of planets (Mercury, Mars, Venus) moving through Scorpio. Water energy is strongly heightened throughout this time, which creates an excellent context for inner-work, meditation, cultivating and attuning to intuition, exploring emotional depths ad well as our spiritual path, paying attention to dreams, connecting with healing modalities, but also tapping into creativity, admiring and attuning to art, storytelling and even raising sensitivity to collective and social issues. Bell hooks, after all, explains with great sensitivity how one of the most healing practices is connecting to and supporting our communities while being of service for higher causes.
The Take-Away:
The vibe: November is intense — think deep reflection, transformation, and facing uncomfortable truths about yourself (hello, shadow work!).
Key dates to know:
Nov 5 - Full moon reminds you to appreciate what's stable in your life amidst all the change
Nov 9-29 - Mercury retrograde = double-check everything, expect delays/tech issues, don't be surprised if plans shift
Nov 20 - New moon invites you to let go and embrace deep change
Nov 21 - Sagittarius season begins! Things lighten up, expand, get more optimistic
Overall guidance: This is a month for going inward. Excellent time for:
Meditation, journaling, therapy
Trusting your intuition
Creative pursuits and engaging with art
Reassessing your relationship with consumption/materialism
Community care and social causes
The bottom line: November asks you to look at the messy, uncomfortable parts of yourself, do the inner work, and then emerge renewed by month's end. It's emotionally heavy but potentially very healing if you lean into it rather than resist.
