As the planets clash and retrogrades unfold, November 2025 emerges as one of the most intense months of the year. From unexpected Uranian shocks to global seismic energy and political tension, the world feels the tremor in the ground and in the hearts of nations.
Many different topics await us in November. First of all, the beginning of November will be softer and more pleasant. However, as we approach the last weeks of the month, the world’s agenda may not bring very good news. For this reason, if you have things to do or projects to start, it’s better to take action during the first week of November.
In addition to the intense influences, Mercury retrograde will begin on November 9. On November 5, there will be a Full Moon in Taurus. This Full Moon will be beneficial for everyone; however, since Mars will take a harsh position the day before, there may be problems in transportation, communication, and technology—especially issues related to the internet—during the first week of November.
The Full Moon in Taurus may manifest as a period of results and conclusions in our lives. But if you say, “I need some luck, I want to start something new,” do it before November 9. No new ventures should be started during Mercury retrograde.
Moving on, on November 8, Uranus back into Taurus, which will not be favorable. Since Uranus is retrograde, it slows down its energy, and among the countries that should be most cautious like Turkiye, Iran and Japan.
Mercury will move through two zodiac signs; starting in Sagittarius and then retrograding back into Scorpio. Its retrograde will end on November 29. For three weeks, we should all be careful with financial matters.
The middle of the month looks a bit calmer, but by November 20, we’ll face the month’s most intense effects. On November 20, there will be a New Moon in Scorpio at a very critical degree. This New Moon should not be seen as a time for new beginnings but rather as a time to protect what we already have. It will be a highly dangerous celestial event.
This New Moon will form an exact opposition to Uranus, which will be retrograding in Taurus at a critical degree, since the New Moon will occur at 28° Scorpio, conjunct Mercury retrograde. This could be a time when natural disasters and geophysical events like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or mining incidents come to the forefront.
There could also be problems with digital currencies, online financial systems, or even stock market scandals in certain countries. Looking at the global agenda, as we mentioned back in October, Vladimir Putin will again stand out among world leaders. After November 20, Putin might become even more prominent, since the astrological aspects we saw in October coincided with his birthday and we interpreted those influences as lasting not just for October but for an entire year.
Since Mercury retrograde will be active, there might appear to be an atmosphere of peace; however, Mercury retrograde is deceptive, and once it ends, we might see a much harsher political climate. To repeat: every leader may talk, but the one who will take action will be Vladimir Putin.
On November 28, Saturn’s long retrograde motion will come to an end at 25° Pisces. During the summer, Saturn was in Aries, but while retrograding, it moved back into Pisces. Now, it will advance again, and by February, Saturn will enter Aries, completing its Pisces cycle and not returning to Pisces for a long time.
Especially for the zodiac signs Pisces, Virgo, Sagittarius and Gemini which have been among the most challenged over the past two and a half years, relief will finally begin around mid-February. Even before February arrives, the end of Saturn’s retrograde will start to open new doors for these four signs.
As you can see, when we take a general look at November, although the first weeks seem more positive, the last ten days of the month will bring very intense and challenging influences. And this prediction only concerns November when we look ahead to early December, the upcoming Full Moon also doesn’t appear very favorable.
Therefore, no matter which country you live in, it would be wise to stay prepared for the unexpected.
Aries
Financial matters will become more active for you this month. The beginning of November brings positive financial indicators, so it’s a good time to take advantage of them. However, by the end of the month, the energy will shift and you’re advised not to make any financial moves during that time.
At the start of the month, some of you may experience joyful developments in your education, while others could see changes related to family matters particularly involving your parents or roots. Once Mercury goes retrograde, you might face travel disruptions, difficulties in academic pursuits, or issues with online purchases.
Taurus
This month could be a lucky period for you. The Full Moon in your sign may bring developments that make you even happier than you expected. Especially for those hoping for progress in love or relationships, the first week of November carries very favorable influences.
The middle of the month also looks fortunate, and some of you may experience financial joy. However, toward the end of the month, relationships and marriages could enter a challenging phase.
Mercury retrograde may tempt you to overspend, so think twice before making purchases. As the month closes with the intense New Moon, some unwanted situations could arise in your romantic life, so it’s best to stay calm and patient.
Gemini
This month, health-related topics may come to the forefront. If you’re considering medical tests or a doctor’s visit, it’s better to schedule them early in the month. For some Geminis, the beginning of November will bring news or results regarding matters you initiated long ago.
The middle of the month will provide financial support, but by the end of the month, challenging influences will dominate as they will for everyone. If you have pets, pay extra attention, as Mercury retrograde could bring issues related to them.
You may also experience delays or complications at work, particularly involving assistants, coworkers, or subordinates. Around the November 20 New Moon, it will be especially important to take care of your health and avoid unnecessary stress.
Cancer
Although this month carries some challenging influences, you will begin and end November with a relatively lucky and positive energy compared to other signs. The Full Moon at the start of the month will bring good fortune your way. You may receive results or feedback in areas where you had been waiting without much expectation. You are also very lucky in love early in the month. However, this romantic luck won’t last all month long, so it’s best to take initiative in love-related matters while the energy is favorable.
The middle of the month will remain lucky for you even though Mercury retrograde will have started, you may still see progress or results in your projects as long as you don’t take major risks.
By the end of the month, due to the New Moon and Mercury retrograde, tensions may rise in several areas of your life. Mercury retrograde could particularly affect children or creative projects. Obstacles might appear at work that undermine your success, and if you are a public figure, you could even face false rumors or accusations.
For those who are single, this is not a good time to start a new relationship. Wait until Mercury retrograde ends at the end of the month before making romantic moves.
Leo
November will focus on career and family matters for you. The Full Moon at the beginning of the month will bring positive developments in your professional life. You might receive a response from a previous job application or finally achieve a long-awaited success at work.
During the middle of the month, your energy may drop, so pay special attention to your health.
The end of the month will be challenging for every sign due to the intense New Moon and Mercury retrograde. These influences could trigger family-related conflicts, particularly with your parents.
Mercury retrograde may also cause electronic malfunctions at home, so be careful with appliances and avoid careless mistakes around the house; minor accidents or clumsiness could be frustrating.
Virgo
This month begins on a lucky note for you. The Full Moon at the start of November will favor earth signs like yours, helping you find closure or positive results in matters that once caused you emotional distress.
Early in the month, you may also experience joyful developments related to travel, international affairs, legal matters, or education. The middle of the month will continue to bring luck. You might even solve a problem with the help of a close friend.
However, the end of the month carries tense influences for everyone. The combination of the New Moon and Mercury retrograde will be exhausting. Mercury retrograde could affect your home and family life, and later, it may cause problems in your education or professional activities.
If possible, plan or book your travels early in the month and then avoid scheduling important trips at the end of November.
Libra
November begins with financial relief for you. If you’ve been struggling with debts or financial obligations, you may finally receive the funds to pay them off during the first week of the month.
If you’re considering any kind of financial investment, make sure to do it before November 9, as favorable influences will support you then.
The middle of the month will be productive and successful, especially for those focused on career matters.
However, the end of the month will bring the same tense energy seen across all zodiac signs due to the New Moon and Mercury retrograde. With Mercury retrograde active, some of you may experience travel or education-related complications around mid-month.
As the month closes, pay close attention to your finances Mercury retrograde can also increase the risk of theft, scams, or financial loss, so be extra cautious with money matters.
Scorpio
The beginning of the month will be a beautiful time for love. Especially for those already in relationships, early November could even bring steps toward marriage or commitment. In short, “love is in the air” this November especially for Scorpios. However, the end of the month will bring the opposite energy, so if you plan to make a move in love or marriage, the beginning of the month is ideal.
Career-wise, the early part of November also looks promising, with positive influences in your professional relationships. However, the New Moon in your sign combined with Mercury retrograde returning to Scorpio makes the end of the month particularly intense and risky.
Mercury retrograde could cause financial troubles around mid-month be careful with online transactions and protect your data against theft or fraud.
By the end of the month, with Mercury retrograde and the New Moon both in your sign, you might be prone to mistakes and irritability. Controlling your anger will be essential, especially in communication with your partner.
With such strong celestial tension affecting your sign, it’s also important to pay close attention to your health toward the end of the month.
Sagittarius
You’ll start November under positive influences, especially in your career, thanks to the Full Moon’s energy. If you’ve been waiting for medical results, the first week could bring good news.
The middle of the month will be generally lucky, especially for financial matters some of you may experience unexpected gains.
As we move toward the end of the month, planetary influences grow more intense. Because Mercury retrograde begins in your sign on November 9, you should be extremely cautious between November 9–19, as things may not go as planned.
When Mercury moves back into Scorpio at the end of the month, you may experience emotional instability or melancholy. Be careful with the people around you. Some may pretend to be supportive while acting against you behind the scenes.
Trust no one blindly at the end of the month, and stay alert to hidden motives. Also, your health might be more vulnerable, so take care of yourself.
Capricorn
The Full Moon at the beginning of the month will bring positive influences for you. As a fellow earth sign, you’ll feel this energy as a source of happiness and stability.
For single Capricorns, this Full Moon could bring romantic developments. Someone you thought was just a casual flirtation might turn into a long-term partner. For others, this Full Moon could signify joy related to children or success in your professional life.
The middle of the month may bring happiness in marriage or committed relationships.
If you receive any health-related diagnosis during November, don’t panic immediately. It’s important to recheck results after Mercury retrograde ends, as misunderstandings or errors are possible during this period.
End of the month, New Moon may affect your status in your social life. Also be careful in social areas such as restaurants, pubs or public places.
Aquarius
The Full Moon at the start of the month may bring joyful family news, especially related to your parents.
If you have real estate matters to handle, try to finalize them early in the month, before Mercury retrograde begins, as later delays or complications are likely. Some Aquarians may also experience financial joy in the first week.
By mid-month, you’ll receive supportive influences for health and well-being. However, the end of the month will be chaotic and tense, and Aquarius will be among the signs that feel this most strongly.
Under the combined effects of the New Moon and Mercury retrograde, you may face conflicts with superiors at work. Stay calm and avoid impulsive reactions. Don’t make hasty decisions like quitting your job, as they could backfire.
Mercury retrograde could also bring tensions with close friends, so choose your words carefully.
Pisces
The Full Moon at the start of the month will bring positive influences to your life, particularly in education and career. You may achieve your goals or receive good news at work.
If your job involves direct interaction with clients or the public, you’ll notice strong positive feedback and improved relationships.
The middle of the month looks pleasant and even lucky, with joyful developments possibly involving your children.
As we approach the end of the month, both the New Moon and Mercury retrograde will create tension. Be especially careful with travel plans, as the energies are not favorable. Avoid scheduling international trips or academic deadlines for late November, as delays or complications are likely.
Those involved in legal cases may also experience challenges. Throughout the month, remember to stay calm and composed in your professional life. Patience will be key to navigating this intense cosmic period.
