ORACLE CARD OF THE MONTH: “Finely tuned emotions” (Pluto in Water). This month, inner growth strengthens our character. Solitary, contemplative, metaphysical research is encouraged. Telepathy and intense sensitivity help us make the contents of our unconscious, conscious. Happiness is derived from helping others. Deep emotional involvements reinforce our sense of purpose. In the next coming 4 weeks, our potential for inner transformation is immense. We are required to rise above temptations and bring value to our community.

5 planets out of 10 are changing signs this month, and 5 are retrograde. Again, a major re-evaluation of our lives and big changes are in the works!
Neptune remains retrograde this whole month till December 10th. The degree traveled in November (29º48’-29º24’ Pisces) is symbolized by: “A majestic rock formation resembling a face is idealized by a boy who takes it as his ideal of greatness, and as he grows up, begins to look like it.” The line between truth and imagination could be somewhat blurry. It is important that we are completely honest with ourselves and re-think the foundation of our life. What ideals do we believe in? Who do we follow? The veils break open, illusions are shattered, reality forces us to confront our deliriums, intuitions and premonitions become sharper.
Uranus remain retrograde this whole month till February 3, 2026. Its shadow period remains until March 13, 2026. The degrees covered in November (0º19’ Gemini - 29º06’ Taurus) are represented by: “A glass-bottomed boat reveals undersea wonders” and “A peacock parading on the terrace of an old castle”. We are offered a wonderful opportunity to reevaluate our thoughts and reinvent ourselves. Encouraged to explore the world, we have the ability to liberate ourselves from limited, limiting concepts, and expand our perspectives.
Mars enters Sagittarius on Tuesday 11/4 until December 14.
The next 5 weeks are great for crusading for causes we believe in. We exert moral courage in defending our ideals. Yet, the tendency could be to exaggerate, scatter our energy, and in the pursuit of far-reaching projects, overlook problems closer to home which demand our immediate attention. This cycle supports fair play, generosity, as well as a direct and open attitude. Outdoor athletic activities help us blow some steam off. Throwing ourselves with great enthusiasm into new projects, we think independently, but rather tactless, we could prove argumentative, impetuous, and competitive. A long-distance trip is favored.
Venus enters Scorpio on Thursday 11/6 until Sunday 11/30.
During the next 2 weeks, our feelings are intense, in some cases excessive. Yet, we take pride in remaining dignified and in control of our powerful emotions. We tend to adopt an all-or-nothing attitude towards romance, are willing to sacrifice everything for love, and have very high commitment standards, demanding absolute devotion and loyalty. Issues around control, jealousy, possessiveness, and sexuality could arise. A great period to understand what we really need in a love relationship. If we are careful to not squander our resources and spend more than we have, this transit gives us a strong flair for financial investments. We are quite shrewd in money matters and could get involved in a highly lucrative business opportunity.
Uranus who entered Taurus in 2018, is making its last incursion through this sign on 11/7 for 5 and ½ months until April 25, 2026. Strange upsets cause upheavals. Living through economic extremes, our sense of security is challenged. Carefully crafted plans are disrupted. Unforeseen circumstances shake our sources of income. Everything we own and believe in is in a state of flux, resulting in sudden losses, but also unexpected gains. We are asked to reassess what safety means to us. Life-changing questions come to the forefront: should we get or stay married? Sell our home? Relocate? Change jobs? Tapping in our personal resources, and unused creative skills, we start looking for new, original ways of making money.
Mercury turns retrograde on November 9 at 6º49’ Sagittarius until November 29 when it will have reached 20º45’ Scorpio. Its shadow period remains until December 17. The degree it becomes retrograde on (6º49’ Sagittarius) is symbolized by: “Cupid knocks at the door of a human heart.” Concentration might be difficult as we tend to be distracted by all sorts of mental interests. We seek independence, question the meaning behind experience, are led to reassess our philosophy of life, and are drawn to rectifying injustices. Encouraged to revisit a romantic connection, we could either deepen an existing relationship or start a new one that is more aligned with our life purpose and enriching to our soul.
Jupiter turns retrograde on November 11 until March 10, 2026. Its shadow period remains until June 6, 2026. The degrees covered in November (25º09’-24º36’ Cancer) are associated with the following images: “Guests are reading in the library of a luxurious home” and “A will-full man is overshadowed by a descent of superior power.” Overwhelmed by memories and over-concerned with our family tree, our lineage, and our conditioning, we may find ourselves immersed in wanting to learn as much as possible about our own past. The transmutation of our ego comes through surrendering to our highest consciousness and embracing a spiritual power that transcends our limited self.
Mercury enters Scorpio on Tuesday 11/18 until December 11.
During the next 3 weeks, our concentration, penetrating insights, and intuition are enhanced. Fascinated by mysteries, we go to great depths to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. Sharp and determined to say things are we see them, we may not be overly concerned with sparing other people’s feelings. We need however to be careful to not fall prey to vindictive arguments and should avoid being too mistrustful, suspicious, or resentful.
The Sun enters Sagittarius on Friday 11/21 until December 21.
Motivated to learn, excited to travel, and fascinated by foreign cultures, philosophies, religions, and the law, during the coming month, we are exuberant, enthusiastic, daring, and adventurous. Drawn to knowledge and the truth, we are open-minded, tolerant, adaptable, and idealistic albeit somewhat careless and tactless. We could trip over our own feet but are great at focusing on the silver lining of every cloud. Adverse to a rigid routine, we tend to be impatient but are candid, generous, and exert a wonderful sense of humor. Even if we are prone to some exaggeration, our efforts are honest and our actions, zealous.
Saturn remains retrograde until November 27. The degree on which it turns direct (25º10’ Pisces) is represented by: “Watching the very thin Moon crescent appearing at sunset, different people realize that the time has come to go ahead with their different projects.” Most of November we are still focused on reassessing our dreams, our goals, and our ambitions. Wishful thinking devoid of action leads to stagnation. If we are to make a difference in our own life and beyond our personal reality, in the collective, we need to walk our talk.
Venus enters Sagittarius on Sunday 11/30 until January 24, 2026.
During the next 7 weeks, we are more friendly, sociable, and outgoing than usual. Easily attracted, in romantic situations we are enthusiastic, light-hearted, and somewhat scattered. Seeking a drama-free, educated partner who loves to travel, we are not above wanting to convert our lover to our philosophical beliefs and moral principles. We express our feelings in a demonstrative, honest, open, candid way, but could cool off abruptly if our freedom is being threatened or we discover that we have been lied to. Our attitude towards money could be rather nonchalant. Even though we attract much luck in our financial affairs, our material resources could be spent as quickly as we earned them.

Sunday 11/2: Venus Square Jupiter (3:17 PM)
Our emotions may be exaggerated. We could throw caution to the winds. Our judgement may not be the soundest, and our self-confidence somewhat misplaced. To stay serene, we need to be or remain philosophical and grounded in what truly matters.
Monday 11/3: Mars Trine Neptune (7:59 PM)
Acutely aware of subtle energies, we seek a spiritually stimulating environment. Our healing gifts -if any, are stronger than usual. We are inspired to concretely help those in need and give a material form to our dreams. Today, we value privacy and wish to shield our activities from any form of outside scrutiny.
Tuesday 11/4: Mars enters Sagittarius (5:01 AM), Mars Opposition Uranus (9:30 AM)
Re-Mars in Sagittarius, kindly refer to the opening paragraph. Today, more specifically things may not quite turn out the way we expected. New, dangerous, unusual situations creating drastic, revolutionary changes could affect us personally, taking both time and energy. We seek stimulating people, but albeit exciting, those associations could be short-lived. Our efforts tend to be sporadic. Unstable, explosive external affairs, impatience, rebelliousness, and recklessness cause a lot of turbulence and chaos. Driven by our fighting spirit, inability to rest, and dissatisfaction with the status quo, we tend to learn the hard way.
Thursday 11/6: Mars Sextile Pluto (7:11 AM), Venus enters Scorpio (2:39 PM)
A day of new beginnings. We are invited to look within, discard what no longer serves us, and find what we really want. A sense of destiny gives us the confidence, courage, and energy to realize our most important goals. Our compelling need to achieve success makes us carry through with restlessness, passion, hard work, and discipline. Re-Venus in Scorpio, kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Friday 11/7: Uranus re-enters Taurus (6:22 PM), Venus Square Pluto (7:44 PM)
Re-Uranus in Taurus, kindly refer to the opening paragraph. Today, more specifically, relationships could be fraught with difficulties. If single, we may fall under the sexual spell of someone with whom there is very little overall compatibility. If we already are in a relationship, things could become quite intense. An emotional crisis could stir up deep seated feelings that had been repressed for too long. Our social life could feel unfulfilling. Conflicts could also arise with family members. Deception, manipulation, and dishonesty lead to our downfall. Let us stay away from shady financial involvements. A transit encouraging us to clear outgrown or toxic emotional patterns.
Wednesday 11/12: Mercury Conjunct Mars (3:15 PM)
Today, we are decisive, frank, and outspoken. Our mind is dynamic and our insights, penetrating. Enjoying intellectual challenges and lively debates, we go straight to the point and can potentially prove tactless and abrupt. We should however be careful when driving. Haste, impulsivity, and impatience could make us accident-prone. Fevers requiring surgery could manifest. Vigorous physical exercise helps us keep our calm.
Sunday 11/16: Sun Trine Jupiter (9:08 PM)
One of the happiest days of the year. Seeking new experiences, we approach life with enthusiasm, faith, and optimism. Advertising, publishing, legal matters, academia, and travel are favored. Our ability to embrace the big picture provides us with deep insights into social trends and beneficial cultural developments. We could come up with a lucrative business idea. Being generous and considerate towards those who are less fortunate than ourselves ensures a constant flow of prosperity.
Monday 11/17: Sun Trine Saturn (12:56 AM), Mercury Sextile Pluto (12:36 PM)
A great day to settle practical matters. Geared towards giving an enduring form to our ambitions, we are committed to our duties, fulfill our obligations, and honor our responsibilities. Profound insights help us see the truth hiding beneath the surface. We examine, investigate, and scrutinize everyone and everything. What we learn today has the potential to change our lives for the better. Improved communication skills, deep concentration, and mental telepathy help us accomplish our goals. Not deterred by repetitive, compulsive thoughts or restrictive policies, we are equipped to handle difficult people. Old hang-ups are easily resolved, resulting in a new cycle of growth.
Tuesday 11/18: Mercury enters Scorpio (7:20 PM)
Kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Wednesday 11/19: Mercury Opposition Uranus (3:45 AM), Mercury Trine Neptune (4:21 AM)
With this transit, sudden news and unexpected situations could surprise us. Impatient with our normal routine, we want to do something different, meet new, mentally challenging people, explore futuristic concepts, and engage in unusual experiences. In our haste and enthusiasm, we could overlook subtle points and make mistakes which could have been easily avoided by paying a little more attention to details. Expansive and visionary, our mind is particularly fertile today. We are eager to incarnate our dreams. Our sense of humor is sharp, our imagination vivid, our capacity for visualization highly developed, and our artistic talents, enhanced. Yet, very sensitive to the gloominess of external reality, we may drift into a fantasy world of our own creation. If we manage to stay grounded and present to the present, this transit is good for financial, political or military activities requiring a successful strategy.
Thursday 11/20: Sun Conjunct Mercury (1:23 AM), Uranus Sextile Neptune (6:39 AM)
Unusual situations, as well as spontaneous events open our mind, giving us glimpses into the true nature of the universe. The development of our intuition and wisdom could make us discover a psychic talent we might have not been aware of having. A wealth of untouched creative vision is likely to emerge from the depths of our unconscious mind. Our thirst for knowledge, as well as a more profound mystical understanding could make us realize how obsolete some of our previous goals have become. To reach the deeper levels of spiritual consciousness promised by this transit, it is essential that we develop discrimination and use our imagination constructively.
Friday 11/21: Sun Opposition Uranus (4:25 AM), Sun Trine Neptune (5:05 AM), the Sun enters Sagittarius (5:26 PM)
A day of sudden upheavals, maybe some forced readjustments, but on the whole exciting changes that require ingenuity and inspire inventive solutions. Our enthusiasm, empathy, psychic abilities, and intuition are greatly enhanced, leading in some cases to visionary dreams. Our idealism is stimulated. The more we flow with the flow, are sympathetic, tolerant, and sensitive to undercurrents, the deeper our insights into business, the stock market, art, music, and religion. Re-the Sun in Sagittarius, kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Saturday 11/22: Mercury Trine Saturn (10:45 AM), Mercury Trine Jupiter (3:37 PM)
We impress others with our grace, poise, and elegance. An ideal day for studying something new, buying, selling, trading, signing a contract, writing, publishing, traveling, or learning a new language. Planning for the future is encouraged. Our ability to embrace all the possibilities and strike a good balance between our attention to practical details and a more global perspective is supported by our discipline and organization.
Sunday 11/23: Sun Sextile Pluto (11:20 AM)
A new phase of life is upon us. A great day to change ourselves through purposeful thought and action. Excellent for eliminating toxic people and situations. Any study that expands our consciousness is favored. Our extraordinary resourcefulness, the strength of our will, and our capacity to bounce back from any frustrating set-back gives us a different perspective and helps us develop new ways of doing things.
Monday 11/24: Mercury Conjunct Venus (5:52 PM)
Today, we think with our heart and feel with our head. Our outlook is calm, we dislike crudeness, are fair, diplomatic, and refined. Our sense of companionship is enhanced. The goodwill and optimism we demonstrate increase our popularity. Considerate of others, we are also persuasive and appreciative of culture and literature. Financial dealings are favored, especially if they involve art, beauty or any form of oral communication.
Wednesday 11/26: Venus Trine Jupiter (8:31 AM), Venus Trine Saturn (3:48 PM)
A day of inner contentment, optimism, and joy. Our social life is warm and pleasant. Romance is favored. Our domestic affairs are blessed with harmony. Our loved ones are fair, comforting, friendly, supportive, and generous. Artistic endeavors are profitable. We are likely to enjoy a good return on a previous investment. A great transit to attend a glamorous event, entertain, or plan a trip.
Saturday 11/29: Venus Opposition Uranus (6:48 PM)
Our social life is likely to be full of surprises, good and not so good. Our understanding of love changes. Liberated from previous relationship concepts, we may willingly jump into a new connection with the dynamic desire to experience something different but without paying attention to the future. Seeking excitement, we are drawn to people who are exotic in some way. However, failing to run a background check could have disastrous consequences. Our own inconsistency in love and friendship, our rebelliousness against relationship restrictions, an exaggerated need for freedom, our willfulness, and a rigid outlook could cause an estrangement and lead to loneliness.
Sunday 11/30: Venus Trine Neptune (12:48 AM), Venus enters Sagittarius (12:14 PM)
Today, because we seek a relationship that is spiritual, fits our ideals, and goes beyond the ordinary, we could easily fall in love with love. A date could seem particularly enchanted, romantic, and pleasurable. We could feel we have met our perfect partner. Yet romantic intimacy could require a sacrifice. Our esthetics tastes are refined. Even if we are not particularly materialistic, we can still make our financial affairs prosper and attract an easy fortune. Re-Venus in Sagittarius, kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Wishing you a wonderful month of November!
In Loving Light.
