Overview for this Month: Leo (All)
November 2020 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Leo:
A strong focus on family, home, and other domestic matters continues and develops further in November, dear Leo. Attention to your home base is vital for the new cycle beginning near the end of November, when creativity, romance, children, and pleasure come into prominence. The stronger you feel on the inside, the easier it will be to share and enjoy yourself later.
November can be very family and work-focused for you, and fortunately, these two areas of your life can complement each other in successful and creative ways now. Home life requires more of your attention and can involve some problems that need resolving in the first days of the month. Mechanical issues or delayed projects can dampen spirits a little, but as the month progresses, you'll see blocks clear and delays lift. An interrupted conversation might resume. New information comes in that aids decision-making.
You're building your nest and gathering your resources in November. Some backtracking is necessary in the first half of the month, after which a solid plan forms! You enjoy a clearer direction and easier decision-making. You can experience improved communications and relations with family, as well as more faith and confidence.
Venus in your communications sector until the 21st boosts the pleasure you take in connecting, sharing, and learning. You may be verbalizing your affections very well now, or there can be a focus on loving chats and sweet talk. There can be even more pleasure in attending to home and family matters after the 21st when Venus heads into your solar fourth house.
Around the 9th, try not to fixate on something outside of yourself that you feel will solve all your problems. Your heart may be ruling your head at this time, and wants and needs can seem like the same thing. Differences in opinion can lead to arguments all too readily. Mars turns direct on the 13th, and you'll find that pressure eases as people respond more directly to one another. Problems related to sharing, ideas and opinions, and transportation or commuting experienced in recent months begin to iron out. Relationships with in-laws, neighbors, and siblings also round out nicely.
Around the same time, Jupiter and Pluto align for the third and final time in your solar sixth house. This transit has transformed your perspective this year, motivating you to make changes and improvements. You've become more motivated to tackle tasks that you previously felt were monotonous or uninteresting. Health and healing methods can be discovered or implemented with more success. You want to improve your situation, and you tend to see the primary path to achieve these goals as the pursuit of a healthier lifestyle and better daily routines, habits, chores, tasks, services, and work.
From the 15th, good energy is with you for pouring more heart, love, and energy into your home life and work or health endeavors. You may recognize what you need to change on the inside to attract more positivity into your life. You're in a goal-setting frame of mind, and you're excited about working towards them. You might pick up or begin new projects or make resolutions to better organize your home life.
The 21st forward is a period that brings a more outgoing, playful, and creative energy to your life and, for some, budding romance. You seek to have some fun, express yourself more freely, and share yourself with others. You seem to magnetize situations to you that help you grow, improve, and build your confidence.
From the 28th, you're turning a corner with shared assets, support, and boundaries in relationships. Great ideas can come to you with fresh thinking. Co-workers, family, or other people who share your day can be more cooperative, helping you feel better about what you're doing.
With a Lunar Eclipse on the 30th, your social life can bring opportunities or some drama to your life. Issues with friends left hanging or unresolved can come to a head, giving you just the right motivation to make necessary changes and resolutions. It might also mark a turning point in a friendship or project.

Leo (Born July 23 to August 2)
AND Leo Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Leo:
November 2020 Leo 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 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 22nd 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. 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.
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 eleventh house. Surprises surrounding long-term goals, friendships, and group affiliations 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. 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, Pleasure
Until November 20th:
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 21st forward:
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.
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 finances, as well as communications with friends or groups, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. Major financial initiatives should be avoided. Remember that friends don't mean what they say and don't say what they mean, and take what you hear with a grain of salt. Group meetings may be delayed or cancelled.
Occurring in your solar third house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to composing letters, emails, making phone calls, and with communications in general. There may be the need to revisit old, nagging issues with siblings or neighbors, errands could go wrong, you might have trouble getting from point A to point B (example, transportation problems), emails or letters get lost, and so forth. Idle chit- chatting during this period may have repercussions! People might be misunderstanding your words. You may be forgetful during this cycle, and it makes sense to allow yourself extra time to get to appointments, if they are not cancelled in the first place! It would also be wise to double-check your work and communications before sending them off.
From November 10th:
Mercury moves through your solar fourth house. This is a time during which you can enjoy increased powers of concentration. You may require solitude in order to get mental work done during this cycle. Your memory is more retentive than usual, and your thoughts often turn to personal matters, family, and loved ones. You might particularly enjoy discussions about your early life, the past, or family matters during this cycle. In fact, it's a great time to open up conversations with loved ones, as you are more rational when it comes to personal matters now.
Your mind often wanders to domestic concerns, and issues surrounding your home, family, and personal past. On the other hand, this transit sometimes indicates an especially busy, and perhaps hectic, period on the domestic scene. For example, you might take home work or find that people drop by your home often during this cycle.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of faith, wisdom, perspective, personal philosophy, higher education, travel, and adventure in general because Mars rules your solar ninth house. 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 a little more cautious, and you might find that you temporarily have less faith.
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 ninth house. During this period, you are especially enthusiastic and more bold than usual. Some restlessness and hunger for adventure is experienced now. Essentially, you are looking to expand your activities, and you may find that you have a lot of energy for higher studies, travel, or simply new subjects. Negative potentials include being excessively opinionated or getting easily fired up over differences in points of view, or legal fights.

Leo (Born August 3 to 12)
AND Leo Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Leo:
November 2020 Leo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
November 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
With the Sun spotlighting your house of family and home, these areas are your instinctive focus during this period. Your family, home, property concerns, roots, and heritage come into focus and become a source of pride. You are likely quite preoccupied with feelings of security and your inner experiences. This is a time when you send down roots and seek a feeling of belonging. You could be thrust into a position of leadership on the home front.
Ego confrontations with family members are possible now, but the best way to handle this energy is to do your best to strengthen your relationship with your family and your home base. This is a time to do what you can to build trust in your family life and a strong foundation within yourself so that regardless of what you meet in the outside world over the next months, you have a secure place to return to. Besides spending more time tending to domestic affairs, the focus can be on cultivating and nourishing the inner foundations that support you and your growth. This is a time to collect yourself--to fill your well, so to speak.
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 tenth house. Surprises surrounding career and reputation matters 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. This could manifest, for example, as a career change or challenge that you didn't expect, a surprise revelation from a coworker or boss, a new promotion or career direction dropped into your lap, and other such possibilities.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 4th:
Venus continues to grace your solar second house during this period. You might receive gifts or bonuses now, or you find much comfort in what you already own and have. You may be a little extravagant with money for the time being, as your desire for luxury and comfort items is increased now, and this is something to watch for. When it comes to love, you value those who make you feel comfortable and secure.
From November 5-29:
With Venus moving through your solar third house during this period, you are mostly cheerful in your approach to others, and perhaps somewhat intellectual, during this transit. Essentially, you are quite companionable now. You enjoy talking about what interests you, and you find great value in the exchange of ideas. Sometimes this transit brings benefit through siblings, communications, or short trips. During this period, you are most attracted to wit, cheerfulness, and verbal rapport. You are especially good at mediating conflicts. Smoothing over differences using your diplomacy skills figures now.
From November 29th forward:

It would also be wise to double-check your work and communications before sending them off.
Until November 18th:
Mercury continues to move through your solar third house. Mercury feels right at home in the third house. Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, or information overload. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects.
As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress. It's a great time to pick up information from your environment and the people in it. Your mind is often distracted, particularly when required to stick to routine, so this is not the best transit for focusing on one task or project. You might spend a lot of time in your car making short frequent trips, running errands, communicating with siblings and neighbors, and visiting friends and relatives.
From November 18th forward:
Mercury moves through your solar fourth house. This is a time during which you can enjoy increased powers of concentration.

November 2020 Leo Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
November 2020
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until November 11th:
The Sun continues to highlight your solar third house--a time of the year in which you are most likely to be a "busy bee". Communications, short trips, errand-running, and general busy-ness feature now. You could have a finger in many pies, so to speak, as your curiosity is piqued by a larger variety of things than usual. Used well, this could be a period in which you come up with solutions to a number of problems. You are more inclined to take pride in your intellectual accomplishments and/or your ability to socialize and make connections.

Your mind is especially inquisitive during this cycle, when learning, short trips, and other forms of communication and making connections, appeal strongly. Some are fidgety or nervous during this cycle, perhaps due to increased errand-running, phone calls, or information overload. Others enjoy the challenge of tackling a variety of subjects.
As well, talking, writing, and studying can be good ways to handle stress. It's a great time to pick up information from your environment and the people in it. Your mind is often distracted, particularly when required to stick to routine, so this is not the best transit for focusing on one task or project. You might spend a lot of time in your car making short frequent trips, running errands, communicating with siblings and neighbors, and visiting friends and relatives.
From the 25th:
Mercury moves through your solar fourth house. This is a time during which you can enjoy increased powers of concentration. You may require solitude in order to get mental work done during this cycle. Your memory is more retentive than usual, and your thoughts often turn to personal matters, family, and loved ones. You might particularly enjoy discussions about your early life, the past, or family matters during this cycle. In fact, it's a great time to open up conversations with loved ones, as you are more rational when it comes to personal matters now.
Your mind often wanders to domestic concerns, and issues surrounding your home, family, and personal past. On the other hand, this transit sometimes indicates an especially busy, and perhaps hectic, period on the domestic scene. For example, you might take home work or find that people drop by your home often during this cycle.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Mars is retrograde from September 9th to November 13th:
All Mars retrograde cycles affect you in the areas of faith, wisdom, perspective, personal philosophy, higher education, travel, and adventure in general because Mars rules your solar ninth house. 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 a little more cautious, and you might find that you temporarily have less faith.
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 eighth house during this date range, enthusiasm for intimate and sharing matters, in general, may wane, perhaps due to some problems or setbacks in these areas of life. Intimate matters may become more intense and complicated. Joint financial projects or initiatives may stall, or you could find that you are less confident about expressing yourself in personal ways. A lover or yourself may especially intense or obsessive. Ambiguity with finances, particularly debts and shared money or resources, could dominate now. There can be the magnification of fears and phobias, unexplored desires, and addictions now. Refocus, backtracking, and review become necessary and recommended. You could be exploring anger and assertion over deeply buried matters, and learning to better manage your life on an emotional level.
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 Leo:
A strong focus on family, home, and other domestic matters continues and develops further in November, dear Leo. Attention to your home base is vital for the new cycle beginning near the end of November, when creativity, romance, children, and pleasure come into prominence. The stronger you feel on the inside, the easier it will be to share and enjoy yourself later.
November can be very family and work-focused for you, and fortunately, these two areas of your life can complement each other in successful and creative ways now. Home life requires more of your attention and can involve some problems that need resolving in the first days of the month. Mechanical issues or delayed projects can dampen spirits a little, but as the month progresses, you'll see blocks clear and delays lift. An interrupted conversation might resume. New information comes in that aids decision-making.
You're building your nest and gathering your resources in November. Some backtracking is necessary in the first half of the month, after which a solid plan forms! You enjoy a clearer direction and easier decision-making. You can experience improved communications and relations with family, as well as more faith and confidence.
Venus in your communications sector until the 21st boosts the pleasure you take in connecting, sharing, and learning. You may be verbalizing your affections very well now, or there can be a focus on loving chats and sweet talk. There can be even more pleasure in attending to home and family matters after the 21st when Venus heads into your solar fourth house.
Around the 9th, try not to fixate on something outside of yourself that you feel will solve all your problems. Your heart may be ruling your head at this time, and wants and needs can seem like the same thing. Differences in opinion can lead to arguments all too readily. Mars turns direct on the 13th, and you'll find that pressure eases as people respond more directly to one another. Problems related to sharing, ideas and opinions, and transportation or commuting experienced in recent months begin to iron out. Relationships with in-laws, neighbors, and siblings also round out nicely.
Around the same time, Jupiter and Pluto align for the third and final time in your solar sixth house. This transit has transformed your perspective this year, motivating you to make changes and improvements. You've become more motivated to tackle tasks that you previously felt were monotonous or uninteresting. Health and healing methods can be discovered or implemented with more success. You want to improve your situation, and you tend to see the primary path to achieve these goals as the pursuit of a healthier lifestyle and better daily routines, habits, chores, tasks, services, and work.
From the 15th, good energy is with you for pouring more heart, love, and energy into your home life and work or health endeavors. You may recognize what you need to change on the inside to attract more positivity into your life. You're in a goal-setting frame of mind, and you're excited about working towards them. You might pick up or begin new projects or make resolutions to better organize your home life.
The 21st forward is a period that brings a more outgoing, playful, and creative energy to your life and, for some, budding romance. You seek to have some fun, express yourself more freely, and share yourself with others. You seem to magnetize situations to you that help you grow, improve, and build your confidence.
From the 28th, you're turning a corner with shared assets, support, and boundaries in relationships. Great ideas can come to you with fresh thinking. Co-workers, family, or other people who share your day can be more cooperative, helping you feel better about what you're doing.
With a Lunar Eclipse on the 30th, your social life can bring opportunities or some drama to your life. Issues with friends left hanging or unresolved can come to a head, giving you just the right motivation to make necessary changes and resolutions. It might also mark a turning point in a friendship or project.

About Our 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. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because 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 Highlights 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 (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
