Astrology Calendars

Sunday, NOVEMBER 1

The Moon enters Leo very early in the day, at 12:18 AM EDT.

While the Leo Moon is generally confident and fiery, a Sun-Saturn quincunx this morning can point to some awkwardness.

There can be a clash between our responsibilities and desire to enjoy ourselves. Doubts or lack of faith can temporarily slow us down and hinder our movements and initiatives. Still, this can be a helpful process as we take a break from pushing ahead. We might now see the need to adjust our plans based on new obligations or a reality check.

This afternoon, the Third Quarter Moon occurs with the Leo Moon’s square to the Sun, signaling a time to review and sort rather than push something new.

Until after the New Moon on November 9th, it’s a better time to tie up loose ends, take inventory, and let go if necessary. We might consider our recent revelations, what they mean to us, and what we might do next.

The Moon is void today until it enters Leo at 12:18 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Monday, NOVEMBER 2

The Moon spends the day in Leo, aligning with Mars and Jupiter, and we’re ready to meet challenges.

This Moon heightens our feelings and stirs our passions. It encourages our need to play, express ourselves, and create. We’re reaching for our joy, trusting in a mission or something higher than us.

As well, we’re embracing our affections, confidence, and bravery, and we’re seeking to grow, expand, and improve.

This Moon brings out our theatrical, playful, and competitive side. We’re seeking and finding ways to express ourselves today, and we’re inclined to act on our feelings.

The Moon is void from 7:10 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Venus), until the Moon enters Virgo tomorrow, Tuesday, November 3rd, at 3:28 AM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

Tuesday, NOVEMBER 3

The Moon continues its transit of Leo only until 3:28 AM EST, when it moves into Virgo. The Virgo Moon is especially focused on precision and detail, and under this influence, we gravitate toward practical activities and helping others.

We might be a little more reserved or self-contained than usual with this Moon, and we can be especially sensitive to criticism.

While we can feel agitated and perhaps destabilized around midday and the Moon-Uranus square, it’s generally a good time to handle problems and get things done.

The Moon is void until  it enters Virgo today at 3:28 AM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

Wednesday, NOVEMBER 4

The Moon is in practical Virgo all day. Retrograde Venus harmonizes with Jupiter today, and we’re giving one another the benefit of the doubt. We’re especially interested in others, culture, different pastimes and pleasures, and unusual or supplemental activities.

We want to learn, grow, expand, and enjoy ourselves. We’re also learning or even relearning what we like and enjoy. As well, we may experience good fortune with money and investments and discover financial prospects.

The Sun forms a conjunction and parallel with retrograde Mercury today, and this inferior conjunction gives us a unique window into the past as it might impact our future. It’s a good time to process recent events and ideas.

At this midway point in the retrograde Mercury cycle, we begin looking at problems or issues from a fresh perspective and a new understanding. Significant new ideas are emerging now and will likely have lasting importance in our lives.

What we say or write now has an impact, for better or worse! However, we may not have all the necessary facts to reach a definitive conclusion, and we may need to revise our plans or decisions later.

The Moon is void from 1:57 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Mercury), until the Moon enters Libra tomorrow, Thursday, November 5th, at 9:38 AM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

Thursday, NOVEMBER 5

The Moon continues transiting practical, conscientious Virgo until 9:38 AM EST, when it moves into Libra. The Libra Moon, with its balanced and diplomatic nature, draws our attention to harmonizing our relationships and environment. We’re willing to meet people halfway. We can feel inspired to make improvements and come up with excellent strategies to do so now.

With today’s Pluto-Juno alignment, we can be sharing power effectively in our relationships and enjoying more commitment and intensity or passion. This influence helps us understand one another. We can feel empowered by our ability to come through for someone, and we’re both resourceful and intuitive today.

The Moon is void until it enters Libra today at 9:38 AM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

Friday, NOVEMBER 6

The Moon spends the day in gracious, balanced, and fair Libra. It’s a strongly relationship-focused transit. We’re treating one another fairly and kindly today, taking pride in our relationships and support systems.

As the day advances, however, we approach a Mercury-Saturn quincunx, and mental anxiety can temporarily interfere with making good, practical choices. There can be communication challenges or mental blocks.

Doubts might slow down our movements and initiatives. Still, however annoying, it can be helpful to pause and check in with our objectives.

Main Astrology Calendar

Saturday, NOVEMBER 7

The Sun forms a biquintile with Saturn and Mercury a quincunx with Saturn early today, and we benefit from a practical focus. It’s a good time for sorting, categorizing, and creating order out of chaos.

We’re motivated to solve problems, although there’s some tendency to dwell on mistakes of the past.

The Moon’s transit of Libra until 5:40 PM EST is cooperative. We’re quite gracious now, particularly as the Moon aligns with Venus and harmonizes with Jupiter. We’re giving one another the benefit of the doubt.

The Moon then enters Scorpio, which is a strong transit for researching, investigating, and getting to the bottom of matters. While struggles for or against control are possible around the Moon’s square to Pluto tonight, this can be a time of resourcefulness.

The Moon is void from 8:20 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Scorpio at 5:40 PM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

Sunday, NOVEMBER 8

Mercury’s creative aspect with Jupiter today can have us focusing on intellectual interests and problem-solving, which can be especially successful. It’s a subtle energy, but it’s good for rounding out our thinking.

The Moon spends the day in Scorpio, aligning with retrograde Mercury this morning. Although it’s hard to see our path forward on this day before a New Moon, our discomfort with the past can feel very real now, motivating new beginnings later.

In fact, a New Moon will occur in Scorpio very early tomorrow. Today, it may be best to wind down, reflect, muse, and tie up loose ends rather than push ahead with fresh starts. Ideally, we get a chance to recalibrate.

Main Astrology Calendar

Monday, NOVEMBER 9

The New Moon occurs early today, at 2:02 AM EST, in the sign of Scorpio. We’re encouraged to step out of our comfort zone and welcome new ways to live, heal, and transform. It’s a time for taking a good look at what we may have chosen to sweep under the carpet.

Taking time to understand others’ motives can enrich our feelings of intimacy, forgiveness, and meaning. We might use this cycle to focus on and develop one special project or relationship to help add purposefulness and depth to our lives. It can also be a time to seek ways to release our fear of confrontations and heavy emotional situations.

We’re discovering that although they may be uncomfortable, these situations can lead us toward psychological healing. We’re receiving a strong prompt to approach our intimate relationships, power dynamics, shared resources, and dependencies in new and improved ways.

This New Moon widely aligns with retrograde Mercury and widely squares the Mars-Jupiter alignment in Leo, and we may be looking to drum up support from others and find motivation within ourselves to accomplish our goals. However, we might struggle with a concurrent desire to be more aboveboard or direct instead of strategic.

Later today, we head toward a Venus-Mars sextile, which supports flow and ease in close personal interactions without sacrificing engagement. We can make connections that prove fruitful and fortunate, and business relationships and pursuits can prosper.

However, because Venus is still retrograde until the 13th, it’s best to wait to formalize any new ventures. Fortunately, we’re likely to find creative, even inventive, channels for connecting with our feelings.

The Moon is void from 6:26 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Sagittarius the next day, Tuesday, November 10th, at 3:36 AM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

The Moon is New in Scorpio on November 9, 2026, at 2:02 AM EST.

New Moon in Scorpio Chart: November 9th, 2026

This phase of the Moon occurs at 16 degrees and 53 minutes of Scorpio. This New Moon widely aligns with retrograde Mercury and widely squares the Mars-Jupiter alignment in Leo.

In the sign of Scorpio, matters related to intimacy, control, power, money, and sharing will be a strong focus in the period ahead of this New Moon. New beginnings or fresh starts are possible in these areas.

The New Moon in Scorpio marks the beginning of a cycle, presenting an opportune time to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Scorpion–passionate, resourceful, focused, probing, deep, and perceptive.

Scorpio New Moon cycles favor working on our self-mastery skills. We may want to pinpoint those things that make us feel out of control, such as addictions and debts, and work on freeing ourselves of these emotional burdens.

This New Moon cycle is also opportune for exploring what is missing in our lives that leads us to engage in these self-destructive behaviors.

There can be an opportunity to rid ourselves of “junk” in our lives–material and spiritual. With this potent Scorpio energy, we have the chance to make important changes in our lives.

Each sign teaches us valuable things, and one of Scorpio’s “lessons” involves learning to dig deeper into the mysteries around us instead of always being content with the status quo. Taking the time to understand others’ motives can enrich our feelings of intimacy, forgiveness, and meaning.

Scorpio also teaches us that dedication to one meaningful relationship or undertaking can be significantly more satisfying than spreading ourselves around. Here, “quality over quantity” applies.

We might want to use this cycle to focus on and develop one special project or relationship to help add purposefulness and depth to our lives.

It can also be a time to seek ways to release our fear of confrontations and heavy emotional situations. We’re discovering that although they may be uncomfortable, these situations can lead us toward psychological healing.

We may be looking to drum up support from others and motivation from within to accomplish our goals. However, we might struggle with a concurrent desire to be more aboveboard or direct instead of strategic.

The New Moon widely aligns with retrograde Mercury, and it’s hard to see our path, but our discomfort with the past can be very real now, motivating new beginnings.

New Moon in Scorpio 2026 ( Additional Points)

Tuesday, NOVEMBER 10

We’re ready to solve problems today. It’s a time for a creative approach to our relationships and projects, and we’re particularly resourceful. We’re likely to want to express our affections through the actions we take. We are also more interactive and charming than usual.

The Moon continues its transit of Scorpio only until 3:36 AM EST today, when it heads into Sagittarius.

With the Sagittarius Moon, our focus turns outward, and we set our sights high. Optimism is one of this position’s strengths, but watch for overlooking essential details in a plan.

Around midday, events may pull us out of our routine, or we could be seeking a loophole or a way out of emotional responsibilities.

However, we’re determined to expand our worlds while also finding ways to detach and calm ourselves by connecting to our dreams and ideals.

The Moon is void today until it enters Sagittarius at 3:36 AM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

Wednesday, NOVEMBER 11

The Mars-Saturn minor square this morning suggests we’re drawn to solving problems, but finding solutions right now can be challenging. Our plans and efforts might meet with resistance. Circumstances seem to block our efforts to assert ourselves. Patience is necessary, although frustration is possible. Life can feel a little slow due to delays or restrictions.

However, with today’s spontaneous Sagittarius Moon, as the day advances, we feel far less tied down.

As well, our discussions tend to be supportive and truly two-way, and negotiations are fair. We’re putting in the effort to understand one another, even if communication is imperfect.

Main Astrology Calendar

Thursday, NOVEMBER 12

Jupiter opposes the Moon’s North Node today, which also means that it aligns with the South Node. This is the first of three such aspects.

With this influence, we may be avoiding our need to contribute to the community by prioritizing our personal needs and lives. This transit points to a tendency to cling to things that comfort us but no longer serve our growth and development. We should watch for these types of excesses, which can magnify at this time.

It can be difficult to trust our intuition under this influence until we can learn to embrace our need to explore, discover, and branch out, detaching ourselves from time to time from our intense personal focus.

While Jupiter encourages us to embrace our personal life, if we don’t balance our vision with our responsibilities to others, we may stagnate or flounder. We can find ourselves at odds with one another over our viewpoints or moral values during this transit.

We’re now encouraged to consider new ideas or experiences. The key is to aim for a balance instead of a tug-of-war. It’s time to give back to others to keep the flow of abundance constant.

The Moon continues its transit of jovial, freedom-seeking Sagittarius until it enters organized, responsible Capricorn at 3:28 PM EST today.

We can easily get distracted this evening, but beyond that, our need for order and self-discipline can take over. Our judgment is sound, and practical matters take priority.

The Moon is void from 6:30 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Capricorn at 3:28 PM EST.

Main Astrology Calendar

Jupiter opposition North Node.

Jupiter, at 25° Leo 32’, forms an opposition aspect with the True North Node of the Moon at 25° Aquarius 32’ in November 2026. This is the first of three such aspects while Jupiter is in Leo and the True North Node is in Aquarius. [Note: Often, aspects formed between outer planets and slow-moving points occur three times in a set due to retrograde motion.]

With Jupiter opposition North Node, we may be avoiding our need to contribute to the community by prioritizing our personal needs and lives. Jupiter’s alignment with the South Node of the Moon (which is the same as its opposition to the North Node) points to a tendency to grab at things that comfort us but are no longer serving us well in our growth and development. We should watch for these types of excesses, which can magnify at this time.

It can be difficult to trust our intuition under this influence until we can learn to embrace our need to explore, discover, and branch out, detaching ourselves from time to time from our intense personal focus. While Jupiter encourages us to embrace our personal life, if we don’t balance our vision with our responsibilities to others, we may stagnate or flounder.

We can frequently find ourselves at odds with one another over our viewpoints or moral values during this transit. We’re now encouraged to consider new ideas or experiences. The key is to aim for a balance instead of a tug-of-war. It’s time to give back to others to keep the flow of abundance constant.

Jupiter opposition North Node dates:

• on November 12th, 2026, Jupiter at 25º Leo 32′ and the True North Node at 25° 32′ of Aquarius (first)
• on February 22nd, 2027, Jupiter at 20º Leo 32′ (second)
• on April 23rd, 2027, Jupiter at 17º Leo 10′ (third)

Friday, NOVEMBER 13

Both Mercury and Venus turn direct today. Venus began its retrograde on October 3rd in the sign of Scorpio, and today it turns direct in Libra.

Gradually over the next few weeks, matters ruled by Venus (including love, pleasure, comfort, and money) should move forward more straightforwardly. Our confidence in ourselves and the universe builds, and warmth and affection are easier to express openly and directly. Tact and diplomacy re-emerge, and more clarity is likely to come to our love and social relationships.

While the shift occurs today, we may feel confused or disoriented. It’s important to be patient and take time to process our feelings.

This is especially the case with Mercury stationing and also turning direct today. As the shifts from direct to retrograde occur, problems can be magnified, and it can be harder to understand directions or one another.

Mercury has been retrograde since October 24th. With Mercury now direct, recent problems with communication and decision-making should start to improve over the coming weeks. The answers we’ve been waiting for can arrive. Plans or projects that have stalled might now resume.

However, we may be flooded with energies that are hard to make sense of during today’s shift, so impactful decision-making might be avoided for the time being, as our thinking can be temporarily skewed.

All in all, it’s a better day to take in rather than take action.

Main Astrology Calendar

Mercury now turns direct at 5° Scorpio 02′.

Mercury was retrograde from October 24th, 2026, at 20° Scorpio 59′, to November 13th, 2026, at 5° Scorpio 02′.

Mercury Retrograde Cycle from October 24 to November 13, 2026:

Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio: October 24th to November 13th, 2026

• On October 4, 2026, Mercury enters the Retrograde Zone (pre-retrograde shadow) at 5° Scorpio 02′
• On October 24, 2026, Mercury stations and turns retrograde at 20° Scorpio 59’Rx
• On November 13, 2026, Mercury stations and turns direct at 5° Scorpio 02’D
• On November 30, 2026, Mercury leaves the Retrograde Zone (post-retrograde zone) at 20° Scorpio 59′

The year 2026’s third and final retrograde Mercury cycle began on October 24th and ends now.

Mercury’s post-retrograde shadow (from November 13th to 30th) is generally better for new long-term endeavors than the pre-retrogrades shadow. For new enterprises in the pre-retrograde shadow, the venture’s secondary progressed Mercury will turn direction (retrograde) in the coming years, which may not be ideal.

Also note that things are most wonky on and around the days of the stations whether Mercury is turning retrograde OR direct (the start and end dates of the retrograde cycle) as the shifts occur, after which we grow more accustomed to the energy. This time around, the dates of the stations are October 24th and November 13th.

Mercury is retrograde approximately three times a year for approximately three weeks each time. As such, retrograde Mercury is a fairly common occurrence (Mercury is retrograde approximately 18% of the time).

As the planet of communication, Mercury retrograde tends to breed a certain level of confusion. Mercury rules our “lower” mind–how we perceive and interpret information that we receive from our environment, and how we relay that information to others. Mercury has rulership over such things as speaking, negotiating, buying and selling, listening, formal contracts, documents, travel, the mail and shipping, and so forth. All of these areas of life are affected when Mercury is functioning in a sluggish state. Decision-making is challenged during Mercury retrograde.

Needless to say, it is not advised to sign contracts, engage in important decision-making, or launch a new business. Delays and challenges are more probable with Mercury retrograde. It’s a time when being careless with money, our personal information, or paperwork can be costly.

While Mercury was retrograde, we may have been rethinking a previous plan or pursuit. Looking to the signs and houses it transits can give clues as to what we may be deciding. In the sign of Scorpio, we were reconsidering matters of finances, intimacy, psychology, and power sharing.

Now that Mercury is direct, slowly but surely, information unclogs, and we can move on. Ideally, while Mercury was retrograde, we had the chance to catch up, refine details, and change our minds if needed.

Mercury Direct

Venus now turns direct at 22° Libra 52′ after several weeks of retrograde motion.

Venus was retrograde from October 3rd to November 13th, 2026, starting at 8°Scorpio 30′, and turning direct now at 22° Libra 52′.

[Venus entered the retrograde zone (shadow) on August 31st, 2026, and will leave its shadow on December 15th, 2026]

For this cycle, Venus began this retrograde in the sign of Scorpio, starting at 8° Scorpio 30′, and now turning direct at 22° Libra 52′.

Note that similar retrograde Venus patterns repeat in approximately eight years, and a similar Venus Rx period occurred from October 5th to November 16th, 2018. Look for common themes shared with this past period!

Saturday, NOVEMBER 14

Mars aligns with the South Node of the Moon today, and we should be mindful of stubbornly holding onto or defending something that no longer supports our growth. However, if we can tap into our desire to make progress, the changes we make now can create new opportunities that enhance our feelings of joy and freedom. It can be a time of dynamic, positive connections and activities.

The Moon spends all day in Capricorn. While the overriding need is to fulfill our responsibilities, our relationship needs and goals can seem to clash.

As the day advances, we might question our quest for pleasure, affection, love, or comfort, which can lead to mild tension or feelings of guilt and perhaps some indecision. Temporarily, it can be challenging to integrate our various urges and needs into our personalities or to act upon them consistently.

The Moon is void from 1:56 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Venus), until the Moon enters Aquarius the next day, Sunday, November 15th, at 4:25 AM EST.
