The November 2024 horoscopes are here, and astrologically this is a big month. The action begins with a powerful new moon in Scorpio and the scarily intense Mars – Pluto opposition has its first stand-off around the same time. Mars is in its shadow period before it turns retrograde in December, and it moves closer to that point with its ingress into Leo on November 4th. That’s just the first of many changes this month. Venus enters sober Capricorn, but the major astrological news is Pluto’s final ingress into Aquarius: that is the big bang moment.
I’ll admit I’m bracing myself for the Pluto ingress because it’s going to be a such a transformational time. This month also has a major retrograde feel: Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune are in reverse gear, as is Saturn until the middle of the month. And, not to be outdone, Mercury turns retrograde in Sagittarius on November 26th. We will enter Mercury’s shadow phase on November 6th, so if you’re already wondering why this month seems to contain a lot of things you need to get your head around, that’ s the reason why. As ever, you can read the horoscope for your sun sign or rising sign.
November 2024 Horoscope: Aries
The new moon triggers a process of transformational change for Aries. Every one of us has something outworn that needs to be cast aside so something better can take its place. That process starts now – and as there is such a Scorpio-Pluto influence to this lunation, you may be confronted with a difficult or unpleasant truth. It may not be the best way to start the month, specially as you’re feeling the strain both at home and at work. The transformation of your career – and your priorities – comes to a head this month; use your energy to kick-start some positive changes at home.
When Mars moves into Leo, the fun begins. It’s time to take a risk and start something new – as long as its something you feel passionate about. You need a creative response to life to prove to yourself that you’re capable of being your best self. It’s time to give yourself a confidence boost, so focus on what you’re good at, or the things you’ve always wanted to do. It’s all part of your personal reinvention, and that will be a major theme when Pluto changes sign. Your view of the future is going to be transformed, so let go of the past and make space for what’s to come.
November 2024 Horoscope: Taurus
The month begins with a new beginning in your partnership zone – even if you don’t yet know it. If you want good relationships, you need to make space for them; with the right conditions, good things grow. When Mercury slips into its shadow zone, you will be thinking about how to move your life forwards and expand your opportunities. This is the beginning of a transformative process, so don’t expect to find the answers. Right now, you need to ask the right questions. When Pluto changes sign, it’s going to make you rethink your career, your ambitions and your priorities, so direct your questions that way…
Meanwhile, you’re going to be influenced by that tense Mars and Pluto opposition. It affects us all, but you’re most likely to feel it in connection with your personal beliefs. This month your perspective on life may be challenged by new information or maybe you suspect a few things are not quite as you thought they were. You may discover this through that good old-fashioned method – a blazing row – as you are confronted by someone else’s radically different take on things. The full moon in your sign shows you won’t shy away from standing your ground – and Jupiter shows that’s likely to be the moral high ground.
November 2024 Horoscope: Gemini
For Gemini, the November 2024 horoscope begins with the new moon showing incoming changes will affect the most mundane part of your chart. Everything to do with your lifestyle is here, so if you need to change your diet, your exercise routines, your workload, your job or all of the above, it’s time to start now. And small changes won’t cut it I’m afraid. If your lifestyle is dragging you down, it’s time to live better and live smarter. The month also begins with some serious tension, as there’s a war going on between what you have and what you owe. This month there is no room for compromise – so something has to give.
Issues around ‘give and take’ are likely to be a source of anger and resentment, and Mercury in shadow phase is going to inflame some of the discussions you have with your partner this month, as issues surrounding freedom, and clashing opinions, increase the temperature between you. You may be better served by thinking things through or taking a fresh perspective on how to make some long term improvements in your relationship. When Pluto changes sign, you will have to change your views – and getting your head around that may be your biggest challenge this month.
November 2024 Horoscope: Cancer
Something is making you mad this month – and your partner isn’t helping the situation. That’s your side of the story, but the truth may be more complex, as your partner maybe undergoing some form of deeply personal issue that’s making life hard for them right now. You may need to take the lead in resolving the problem; anger is never the solution. Your efforts may take your relationship to another level – but not without a fight. Fortunately, the new moon opens the month with you in a determined mood; whatever is testing you right now, you will be capable of producing the creative response that the situation demands.
Mercury’s shadow period will help to inject some commonsense into any situation that’s worrying you. As a Cancer, ‘worry’ is your middle name, but sometimes that’s a useful name to have. This month, you’re going to focus on practical solutions to immediate concerns and not get ahead of yourself – even if the pressure is on you to do otherwise. You’ll need to keep this approach once Pluto changes signs, because for Cancer people, that changes everything: your life is going to enter a completely new phase and many of the things you have become attached to will be left behind. if that doesn’t scare you, nothing will.
November 2024 Horoscope: Leo
The November 2024 horoscope shows that the month begins for Leo with the start of a new phase in your home and family life. It’s early days, but this intense Plutonic new moon signifies a transformation is due – and it may not be an easy one. Anything valuable is never easy to obtain. There’s also some frustration due to a stalemate situation. If you’re trying to make some radical improvements to your life, take heart, this month may see the final test of your patience. It may not be pretty but it will clear the air. When Mars and Pluto change signs early in the month, you’ll be capable of driving things forwards.
And that will apply especially to your personal relationships or business partnerships. Tension often requires a creative outlet – and that’s exactly what’s on your mind. It’s time to think about how you can make your life more exciting, and it’s time to free yourself from negativity that is stopping you from reaching your full potential. You need to acknowledge that the setbacks in the road are there to help you refine your ideas and stimulate your creative responses. Use the Mercury retrograde to be more adventurous and plan the next stage of your life journey.
November 2024 Horoscope: Virgo
Virgo is the sensible sign, so the emotionally tense start to the month may be tough to handle. If you want to make progress with your goals, you may have to risk an uncertain future and/or make radical changes to your self expression. But you know that. Something has to give, but compromise seems in short supply this month. This is also your last chance to resolve the situation; unless you do so, as the month progressions you’ll become more angry and frustrated, and you may need to review your lifestyle – particularly if there are issues with your health, work and wellbeing.
Mercury is slowing down – and it’s going to make you think about the fundamentals; everyone needs a secure base – and you are no exception. If you have been feeling insecure, some changes must be made. It’s time to make plans and explore your options, though the time for action may come further down the line. You may re-connect with someone from your past this month or you may revisit some of the ways you connect with your most basic needs. You may be thinking about your security too – not just in the immediate sense, but longer term. The full moon opens your eyes to opportunity and growth.
November 2023 Horoscope: Libra
The November 2024 horoscope for Libra sees you keen to get ahead in your career, but under pressure at home. These two things may (or may not) be related; for example, a focus on work may cause pressure at home, or the two situations may coexist for other reasons. The best situation sees you striving to achieve in both directions. Getting your domestic issues under control and giving free rein to your ambitions may be a big ask this month. You can try your best, but don’t be hard on yourself if you fail. And the new moon in Scorpio suggests there may be financial issues too…
And financial issues can go both ways. Either, money is tight (hence the issues above) or you may have more cash than usual. The reality is you are going to have to learn to take care of your resources over the next few months – and that means resources of all kinds. As Mars and Pluto change signs, you will have to take action to protect you future interests – and that may demand a creative response from you. Mercury is approaching its retrograde period, so consider your options with care. Making choices is not easy this month. Get things in writing if at all possible and read the fine print. You have a lot of thinking to do.
November 2024 Horoscope: Scorpio
Upsetting news can challenge your perspective on life – but you’re used to that by now. As the month begins, the final challenge to your world view may reveal itself; try not to rush to any conclusions about a certain person or situation. The new moon in your sign signals the start of an intense few months for you personally, and it could be a transformational time if you handle the challenge well. Your co-rulers, Mars and Pluto may help rather than hinder the process; your drive and passion will reach an all time high once they change signs – but that energy will need a positive outlet if it’s to work well for you.
Use it to further your career or ambitions and/or secure your base. This is a time to work on your personal security and self-reliance. Mercury is going to turn your mind towards money and you may experience some anxiety in connection with the material world, especially as Mercury slows down. Use the Mercury retrograde period to sort out your financial affairs and put them on a secure footing. Keep track of your expenditure and check your accounts regularly, as it may be easy to lose track of where your money is going. If you need to improve your resourcefulness, it’s good time for that too.
November 2024 Horoscope: Sagittarius
As if things weren’t tense enough, the new moon in Scorpio is going to unnerve you as the month begins. Whatever issues you have been avoiding will start to make their presence felt, so if you sense something is not right, face up to it. It won’t stay buried or secret forever. Avoidance may come back to bite you. The best way to deal with tension is to use the energy for positive reasons – and you have that opportunity this month. Mars and Pluto maybe hanging over you, but their energy may stimulate lasting change and a transformation of your finances. It they have been a cause of concern to you, deal with them now.
That same energy will soon be available to revitalize your sense of adventure and perspective on life. If you change your thought patterns, the world will be a different place. Mercury entering its shadow phase is going to make you focus your thoughts and communications, and you may contact people who are useful or can help you make improvements to your life. There is the risk it will also make you indecisive. Use this time to think hard about your life direction. As a Sagittarius, you are so used to having the freedom to move in any direction. This time, you need to simply pick one.
November 2024 Horoscope: Capricorn
The November 2024 horoscope for Capricorn starts with a Scorpio new moon that is going to change your view of the future. Where do you want to be in five years time? Or in six months? Or less? if you haven’t yet asked those questions, you will now. And maybe those questions show the tension that’s become obvious in your relationships. Mars and Pluto are at loggerheads this month; hopefully you and your loved one won’t be – but there is that potential. The Mars-Pluto energy is reshaping your approach to life – and it will either energize your relationships, or cause friction.
The good news is that – whatever happens – they will clear the air and you can move on. Mars and Pluto will both have changed signs by November 20th, and this will shift your focus to your finances. You are going to be dealing with some major financial issues; mortgages, insurances and life policies may be at the top of your ‘to do’ list. Some of you may be making insurance claims – with Pluto in your cash sector, crime is always a possibility, so take extra care this month. Mercury entering its shadow phase may make you more forgetful than usual – and that’s another reason to be vigilant.
November 2024 Horoscope: Aquarius
The month begins with the new moon in Scorpio and that means a process of structural change is about to unfold. It’s likely to affect your career, your ambitions, your status, your marriage – any situation that impacts on your life path – so this could be a big moment for you. is that prospect worrying or enlightening? Aquarius is big on enlightenment, and that’s where your mental focus needs to be this month. Mercury enters its shadow phase and that may cause you to review your hopes and dreams for the future. The new moon is guiding you in a more realistic direction, but there is still room for your ideals.
And you are an idealistic soul. This month you will feel tension in that area, as the Mars – Pluto opposition is going to demand you transform your idealism into something that is concrete and actionable. In other words, this month you may need to put your cards on the table: accept that life is never going to be perfect, but use your energy to to make the best of it. In a month where compromise is in short supply, this may be the best compromise you can make. When Pluto changes sign, difficult issues may arise for your partner, or in your relationship. Whatever happens, it will be transformational for you.
November 2024 Horoscope: Pisces
The November 2024 horoscope suggests a world of opportunity is opening up for you. You may not notice this at first, but the seeds will be planted as November begins. That may be the light at the end of a dark tunnel, as Mars and Pluto fight over who you are. There are big questions for you this month: who do you think you are? How can you become your best self? Where do you belong? What’s your affiliation? And they are major questions, as Mercury entering its shadow phase will be happy to confirm. Your life path – and which direction to take – are going to be uppermost in your mind this month.
As Mars and Pluto move forwards and change signs, you may find some relief from the pressure – but you won’t find any definitive answers until after the Mercury retrograde period. Use this time to consider your options – and some of them will be more adventurous than others. When Pluto changes sign, you are going to have a psychological clear-out. For too long, you have ignored the junk cluttering your psyche – and making your life work better is going to be difficult without emptying the attic. Use this energy to clear your head. Events around the time of the full moon will show why this work is essential to your mental stability.
