Overview for this Month: Cancer (All)
November 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:
November holds good energy for leisure and creative pursuits, dear Cancer. You are in a rather dramatic phase right now, and your desire to express yourself is powerful. By the last week of the month, a new cycle begins where work or routines occupy much of your time.
The month can begin a little sluggishly with Mercury still retrograde until the 3rd and Mars until the 13th. You may be turning your attention to a household or family matter that you previously thought was resolved. Be a little more mindful around the 9th when there can be off-timing and impatience in your relationships. The social side of business or work can get complicated.
Delayed initiatives can reawaken after the 6th. News might arrive that moves you forward, or you finally get a chance to put a project into motion. If you've been in a state of limbo in recent weeks, you're likely to enjoy the more straightforward energy with us in the second half of November. You'll find life a little easier to navigate as projects and initiatives begin to move forward, motivation increases, and you're giving off clearer signals. Home projects that were left undone now resume. Career goals also become clearer, and your determination increases as a result.
While responsibilities and work continue to keep you on your toes, there is a stronger focus on moving forward now and less on straightening out problems. Where there was emotional distance or coolness in business recently, there is now more warmth and directness.
You can feel inspired to do your best or pursue a dream upon a friend's encouragement. There is a real desire to enjoy your life more fully this month, and opportunities emerge for creative expression and entertainment. Activities with family or around the home are favored, especially in the first three weeks of the month.
Jupiter and Pluto joined forces in April and June, and they're meeting again for the final time in your partnership sector. A new view of the world, yourself, and your relationships has evolved this year, prompting the desire to make improvements. With a deeper understanding of your relationship needs, you're in a better position to grow. Rich learning experiences have been occurring, and you're rebuilding faith and confidence.
You may be motivated to start fresh or breathe new life into your creative or romantic world, and your interactions are confident and focused on a bright future. Someone in your life can boost your confidence or inspire you to improve. There can be a fantastic exposure to a new perspective, lifestyle, or culture that expands your mind and opens your heart. You become more aware of your need to entertain, be entertained, celebrate, enjoy, and share yourself with others, and doors are opening to do so now.
While pastimes, hobbies, and entertainment are in strong focus, there's a back-to-business theme building from the 21st. You'll want to tackle your responsibilities head-on. You can absorb a lot now, mainly related to your work and health. Humble confidence gets you everywhere, and people are valuing your helpfulness. You're seeking out more meaning through the work you do.
In the last week of the month, you're less distracted, and your belief in yourself and life itself is growing. More and more, you believe in your dreams. There can be a turning point in a project or an attitude.
The Lunar Eclipse on the 30th illuminates a private matter – something that has been left unresolved and now needs settling. The revelations you have around this lunation can illustrate the importance of making more time for spiritual, imaginative, and reflective activities so that you don't lose the motivation and spark you have for your work. If you've been ignoring your needs for rest and reflection, you could be feeling especially drained and sensitive around this date.
Cancer (Born June 22 to July 1) and Cancer Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Cancer:
November 2020 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
November 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until November 21st:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fifth house. This is a time when pleasure-seeking and creative activities come into focus and grab much of your attention. You are particularly personally charming in a spontaneous, natural way during this solar cycle. This is the time of year when you are ready to perform and to express yourself creatively.
This is a very playful cycle, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. It's a good time for recreation, romance, connecting with children, and enjoying and performing the arts. Your ego is tied up in your children, romantic relationships, and creative output now, so that you can be especially proud of these people and things. You can also be over-sensitive about these matters if you feel you are not getting enough appreciation.
From November 22nd forward:
The Sun illuminates your solar sixth house. During this cycle, you take more pride in the work you do and in your health routines than any other time of the year. You are sorting through the experiences of the last several months, separating the worthwhile from the worthless. This is a good time to build your skills, to get organized, and to attend to your health and wellbeing. It's a great time to make improvements to your regular routines. Your self-esteem and your ego are tied up in the work you do and in the services you give. Details are more important to you now.
It's time to bring order to your life by focusing on the little things that make up the whole. This cycle presents an opportunity to get rid of what doesn't work in your life, while also discovering what does. You could seek distinction and strive towards perfection in your work. Efficiency should be your goal now. Your physical health, as well as the relationship between your body and your mind, are in focus.
Eclipse
A Lunar Eclipse Occurs on November 30th:
A general rule of thumb regarding eclipses is to avoid major decision-making in the week before and after an eclipse. This is because new information that could change our perspective often is revealed in the week after the eclipse. There is absolutely no need to suspend projects already in progress. Essentially, it's better to take in right now--to observe and get in touch with feelings.
This Lunar Eclipse stimulates your solar twelfth house. Surprises surrounding the compassionate care and attention you give others, as well as the work and service you render, may be in store. Something that has been "in hiding" or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. Your sectors of self-undoing, privacy, and dreams is involved. This could manifest, for example, as a situation that tests your faith and compassion, a culmination or fruition of a service you render, an event that calls on your urge for privacy and reflection, and other such possibilities. Finding a balance between practical concerns and spiritual or non-material matters is what this Lunar Eclipse is about for you.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until November 20th:
Venus continues to transit your solar fourth house now. Domestic relationships and the home environment tend to be especially harmonious and peaceful during this cycle. You may have a desire to decorate your home with better quality items or more attention to aesthetics. An inner sense of peace and security tends to dominate now, or the desire for peace motivates you now. Your affections are strong but you don't wear your heart on your sleeve just now, preferring quiet moments with loved ones.
From November 21st forward:
Venus warms your solar fifth house. This is an expressive period for the goddess of love! It's natural for you to turn on the charm without even lifting a finger. You are especially attracted to aesthetic forms of recreation. You feel a little more playful now, and love matters tend to be laced with a touch of drama. That shouldn't be a problem--in fact, you kind of like it that way for the time being. More loving and appreciative relationships with your children may also figure now. Your powers of attraction skyrocket during this cycle. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. At this time, you instinctively know how to place yourself in the best light in order to make a good impression on others. Any love affair begun now will be characterized by good cheer, having fun, and a fair share of emotional drama!
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Mercury continues its retrograde only until November 3rd:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of personal communications in general as well as communications about the past because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Your intuition usually serves you very well, but may not be up to par for the time being. Take care when it comes to presenting ideas, writing letters, and any detail work. You may not be seeing the whole picture.
Occurring in your solar fourth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to family relations, real estate matters, and domestic issues. Be as non-judgmental as you can with family members. It may be challenging to keep a healthy perspective regarding deeply personal matters and family. Family members may be on edge, or appear to be. Home repairs may not turn out as expected. Try to put off major decision- making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. New initiatives surrounding home and property are best left for a better time, but reworking and reorganizing your home can be especially fruitful now.
From November 10th:
Mercury transits your solar fifth house. During this cycle, there is a powerful mental connection with your creative self-expression. You are proud of your ideas, and very good at expressing them to others smoothly now. Your thinking is more creative than usual. You tend to entertain others with your conversation; and your sense of humor (and of mischief!) is especially strong.
Your thoughts turn to children, pleasures, or romance during this expressive cycle. You might enjoy researching speculative ventures now. You especially enjoy games that involve competing with others on a mental level. You have a stronger need than usual for intellectual stimulation. Therefore, your friends and romantic partner are best appreciated now if they are intellectual types. You're more willing to take risks on a mental level now, so take advantage of the increased spontaneity and creativity that comes with this position.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your career, professional life, ambition, public relations, and your reputation because Mars rules these areas of your life in your solar chart. Stalling, snags, challenges, or seeming setbacks might alert you to the need for re-organizing your energy and enthusiasm for these matters, for re-assessing goals, or for changing plans.
Occurring in the sector that Mars rules, all of these themes are magnified. See Mars Retrograde for more details.
Note that Mars sticks around this area of your solar chart for much longer than usual–until January 6th, 2021, but is only retrograde here until November 13th.
From the 13th, confidence rebuilds and increases.
Mars animates and energizes your solar tenth house. This transit stimulates your ambition and/or your desire to be recognized for your accomplishments. Whether it's professional or personal, you are likely to have an increased desire for others to notice you. This can be a good time to become self-employed or start a business if other factors (and Mars itself) are favorable. Conflicts with those in authority are possible now. You may pour more energy into self-promotion or business/career activities.

Cancer (Born July 2 to 12)
AND Cancer Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Cancer:
November 2020 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
November 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks. You take more pride than usual in your creations, your love affairs, your children, and your hobbies. Pleasure and amusement play an important role in your search for freedom of self-expression now. Show off your best colors!
You want others to take notice, and you are more sensitive to whether people appreciate you. More than any time of the year, this is the cycle in which you focus on having fun, enjoying romance, and expressing yourself creatively. Your hobbies, leisure time, moments spent with children, gaming time, and so forth, all come into focus at this time of year.
This is a cycle in which you find joy in expressing who you are--when your "inner child" comes out to play. This is a time when you are more flirtatious than usual, and when you might take a few risks in life--not only gambling with games but with life itself. You might be a bit of a showman at this time. You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.

Something that has been "in hiding" or brewing under the surface of things comes to light, or there is a significant fruition or culmination. This could manifest, for example, as a situation that tests a friendship, a culmination or fruition of a casual relationship, you could be called upon to perform a humanitarian gesture, a friend may experience a little crisis and ask for your help, you could suddenly find yourself around many people, perhaps after a period of relative solitude or private time, and other such possibilities.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 4th:
Venus continues to play in your solar third house during this period, indicating a more light-hearted, curious, and intellectual approach to love and pleasure, as well as a more easygoing communicative style.
During this cycle, you are especially charming in your communications. Your words are soothing, and you tend to use words to smooth over problems that you see around you. You are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual.
Essentially, you are quite companionable during this cycle. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you see value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. Good companionship is as equally important as romance to you during this cycle.
You prefer an intellectual, communicative, and witty partner just now, and your powers of attraction increase through expressing these types of qualities. You are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport, and you are especially good at mediating conflicts now. If you were to begin a romance or friendship during this cycle, it would likely be quite light-hearted.
From November 5-29:
Venus warms your solar fourth house now. During this cycle, you are especially fond of the life of the home and family. You are more receptive and gentle on a romantic level, and tend to be sentimental or nostalgic.
You may particularly value the aesthetics in and around your home during this period. If things are out of whack on the home front, you will do whatever you can to create a peaceful and stable atmosphere.
In relationships, loyalty and sensitivity are more important to you than typically. You might focus on ways to earn money in or from your home. This is a calming influence--a time when simple pleasures most appeal.

November 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until November 11th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar fourth house. This is a period of recharge, of getting in touch with your innermost feelings, of connecting with your roots, and of spending more time and energy on home and family. Home and family matters capture your attention and are a strong source of pride now. It's a time when worldly matters are not as important to you.
Use this energy to find ways to improve your family relations and your home environment. During this heart-warming cycle, you would do best to allow yourself to explore your inner needs so that you can nurture yourself and others in a healthy, growth-oriented manner, in preparation for more outgoing times to come.
From November 12th forward:
The Sun illuminates your solar fifth house now. After a period of "nesting", you are coming out of your shell, ready to perform and to express yourself creatively. This is a very playful period of the year, when you are inspired creatively and emotionally. After a period of self-protectiveness, you are now more spontaneous and more willing to take risks.

Occurring in your solar fourth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to family relations, real estate matters, and domestic issues. Be as non-judgmental as you can with family members. It may be challenging to keep a healthy perspective regarding deeply personal matters and family. Family members may be on edge, or appear to be. Home repairs may not turn out as expected. Try to put off major decision- making with regards to home improvement, moving, and family matters for the time being. New initiatives surrounding home and property are best left for a better time, but reworking and reorganizing your home can be especially fruitful now.
Until the 24th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar fourth house. Your thoughts tend to revolve around personal matters, especially family, home, and domestic issues. You enjoy, more than usual, discussions and stories about the past and about family.
You are more rational and objective when it comes to your relationships with those close to you, so it is, in fact, a good time to open up discussions with family. There can be increased activities in and around the home during this cycle. You are not as interested in worldly matters and career as you are in your personal life for the time being.
From the 25th:
Mercury transits your solar fifth house. During this cycle, there is a powerful mental connection with your creative self-expression. You are proud of your ideas, and very good at expressing them to others smoothly now. Your thinking is more creative than usual. You tend to entertain others with your conversation; and your sense of humor (and of mischief!) is especially strong.
Your thoughts turn to children, pleasures, or romance during this expressive cycle. You might enjoy researching speculative ventures now. You especially enjoy games that involve competing with others on a mental level. You have a stronger need than usual for intellectual stimulation. Therefore, your friends and romantic partner are best appreciated now if they are intellectual types. You're more willing to take risks on a mental level now, so take advantage of the increased spontaneity and creativity that comes with this position.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of your career, professional life, ambition, public relations, and your reputation because Mars rules these areas of your life in your solar chart. Stalling, snags, challenges, or seeming setbacks might alert you to the need for re-organizing your energy and enthusiasm for these matters, for re-assessing goals, or for changing plans.
Occurring in the sector that Mars rules, all of these themes are magnified. See Mars Retrograde for more details.
Until the 13th: Occurring in your solar ninth house during this period, enthusiasm for higher education, travel, your personal philosophy, or adventure, in general, may wane, perhaps due to some problems or setbacks in these areas of life. Some projects may stall, or you could find that you are less confident about expressing yourself in adventurous ways. Your outlook on life in terms of the "bigger picture" could be more cautious, and you might find that you temporarily have less faith, or you are questioning the faith that has carried you to date. Refocus, backtracking, and review become necessary and recommended now. Your outlook and lust for life, for the time being, might not be as natural or spontaneous as it has been.
Mars will continue to transit these areas of your solar chart for longer than usual but is only retrograde until November 13th. After the 13th, you begin to regain more confidence and desire to move on and forward.
Overview Horoscope:
November 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:
November holds good energy for leisure and creative pursuits, dear Cancer. You are in a rather dramatic phase right now, and your desire to express yourself is powerful. By the last week of the month, a new cycle begins where work or routines occupy much of your time.
The month can begin a little sluggishly with Mercury still retrograde until the 3rd and Mars until the 13th. You may be turning your attention to a household or family matter that you previously thought was resolved. Be a little more mindful around the 9th when there can be off-timing and impatience in your relationships. The social side of business or work can get complicated.
Delayed initiatives can reawaken after the 6th. News might arrive that moves you forward, or you finally get a chance to put a project into motion. If you've been in a state of limbo in recent weeks, you're likely to enjoy the more straightforward energy with us in the second half of November. You'll find life a little easier to navigate as projects and initiatives begin to move forward, motivation increases, and you're giving off clearer signals. Home projects that were left undone now resume. Career goals also become clearer, and your determination increases as a result.
While responsibilities and work continue to keep you on your toes, there is a stronger focus on moving forward now and less on straightening out problems. Where there was emotional distance or coolness in business recently, there is now more warmth and directness.
You can feel inspired to do your best or pursue a dream upon a friend's encouragement. There is a real desire to enjoy your life more fully this month, and opportunities emerge for creative expression and entertainment. Activities with family or around the home are favored, especially in the first three weeks of the month.
Jupiter and Pluto joined forces in April and June, and they're meeting again for the final time in your partnership sector. A new view of the world, yourself, and your relationships has evolved this year, prompting the desire to make improvements. With a deeper understanding of your relationship needs, you're in a better position to grow. Rich learning experiences have been occurring, and you're rebuilding faith and confidence.
You may be motivated to start fresh or breathe new life into your creative or romantic world, and your interactions are confident and focused on a bright future. Someone in your life can boost your confidence or inspire you to improve. There can be a fantastic exposure to a new perspective, lifestyle, or culture that expands your mind and opens your heart. You become more aware of your need to entertain, be entertained, celebrate, enjoy, and share yourself with others, and doors are opening to do so now.
While pastimes, hobbies, and entertainment are in strong focus, there's a back-to-business theme building from the 21st. You'll want to tackle your responsibilities head-on. You can absorb a lot now, mainly related to your work and health. Humble confidence gets you everywhere, and people are valuing your helpfulness. You're seeking out more meaning through the work you do.
In the last week of the month, you're less distracted, and your belief in yourself and life itself is growing. More and more, you believe in your dreams. There can be a turning point in a project or an attitude.
The Lunar Eclipse on the 30th illuminates a private matter – something that has been left unresolved and now needs settling. The revelations you have around this lunation can illustrate the importance of making more time for spiritual, imaginative, and reflective activities so that you don't lose the motivation and spark you have for your work. If you've been ignoring your needs for rest and reflection, you could be feeling especially drained and sensitive around this date.

About These Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. Transits don’t abruptly change as the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Lunar Cycles section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes, simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
Learn all about the signs of the zodiac. We offer interpretations of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and the Ascendant in the signs:
