Overview for this Month: Cancer (All)
November 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:
You've been discovering your passions and in better touch with your desire nature, dear Cancer, with Mars in your sign. On November 3rd, however, Mars moves forward, and while you've benefited from Mars' visit of your sign as you scoped out the playing field, it feels time to settle in and focus on building and developing.
In truth, Mars isn't entirely finished with your sign! In December, Mars will turn retrograde, and in early January will return to Cancer. You'll return to some plans and situations and give them more attention, and you'll spend more time working on your assertiveness. For now, you're more interested in attending to your comfort needs.
November also brings much focus on recreation, love, work, and health. A new beginning is in the works regarding your romantic and creative worlds, whether this means a new connection or project, a new way of expressing yourself, or a fresh start in an existing relationship, pursuit, or hobby. You may be in a unique position to share your ideas, happiness, sense of humor, or creative vision with others.
Keep in mind that Mars' transit of your resources sector from the 3rd forward will be longer than usual, and this is because Mars will retrograde on December 6th, backing up over the same tracks it's making now. This is an intense transit for the ambitious pursuit of security or increased income, although there can be some stops and starts. You can be a little tough with yourself when it comes to making money and perhaps a little tough on others if you're not feeling valued. You're also quite motivated to work harder for your money.
From the 11th onward, you're in fabulous shape for attracting the right company or smoothing over a relationship. Giving your time to someone, or allowing a person to shine in their own way as they take the lead, can be very rewarding for both of you with Venus in your partnership sector. This is a fine time for meeting people, and you are feeling unusually open and receptive. Make peace now, with both friends and enemies!
Saturn's direct turn on the 15th helps you work on bringing your expectations down to earth. Self-improvement endeavors can be in focus and more successful as you have a firmer grip on what's realistic and realizable. Your life might improve with support or increased structure and commitment.
But first, the Full Moon on the same day can stir things up. Issues of freedom and individuality are in the spotlight, and an epiphany is likely. After a spell of being fairly wrapped up in your personal life, you may realize the need to reach out to others and remind them that they matter to you. It's a time to enjoy new revelations and share your findings with people you care about. This Full Moon reminds you of your need for friends, associates, community support, or like-minded people.
Certainly, tensions in your social or romantic life can come to a head, or a discovery is significant. There can be a sudden need to detach yourself from personal focus so that you can connect with others in meaningful ways. You might awaken to the need to feel valued as a friend or to align yourself with a cause, goal, or dream to motivate/drive you. A sudden awareness of feelings for someone or a buried relationship problem can emerge and demand attention. You gain new insight into a preexisting problem or your feelings, and this illumination helps you make better choices in the future.
With the Sun's move into your solar sixth house on the 21st, you're more likely to focus on work and practical affairs. You have a more vital understanding of what needs doing to improve your daily life and routines. You're answering to your inner rhythms and might feel dragged down if you need to wait for others to catch up with you! Feeling especially capable and competent, you might enjoy organizing and attending to the "little things" integral to your routines.
With Mercury's retrograde from the 25th forward, look at past projects for ideas and inspiration and focus on editing and improving. Aim to get a project right before moving forward or releasing it. It's a strong time for revising and perfecting. Take the time to work hard at something you love or believe in, as you can make significant progress.
Cancer (Born June 22 to July 1) and Cancer Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Cancer:
November 2024 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
November 2024
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 21st 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.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until November 11th:
Venus continues to move through your solar sixth house now. This is a time when beautifying and/or bringing harmony to your working environment is a priority to you. You might find more opportunities to socialize with co-workers, perhaps even meeting a new friend through your work or health routines. You are likely to bring more tact and diplomacy to your relations with the people you work with now. You may not be as productive as usual during this period, as the focus is more on social relationships and pleasure than on getting the job done. Improving health and vitality through pleasurable activities such as massage might be in focus now.
From November 11th forward:
Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections. Smoothing out your close personal relationships is what makes you happy during this cycle. If single, you are more willing than normal to enter into a committed relationship. In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
From the 2nd forward:
Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house. It's an excellent period for sorting out the details of your daily existence. You are inclined to make to-do lists, pay bills and sort out clutter, and to do detail work on the job. Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.
Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.
You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.
Mercury is retrograde from November 25th to December 15th:
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 sixth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to work, health matters, and daily routines. Be as non-judgmental as you can with co-workers and/or employees. Re-thinking the suitability of your job is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. Work-related mess-ups can frustrate you, or you might need to redo work that you thought was complete. However, you might find that the refinements you make now will be very valuable later. Double- check your work before submitting it. It's a fine time for researching health and nutrition programs, as well as job skills and opportunities, but perhaps not the best time for beginning all-new programs. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with co-workers and health professionals; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 3rd:
Mars continues to activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.
This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.
You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.
Until the 4th forward:
Mars energizes your solar second house. You have more energy at your disposal to make money, but also to defend your values. This can be a very resourceful time, when you make the most of what you have. You have much energy for new money-making projects, or for stepping up existing ones.
You may be over-identifying with what you have and own, and you could be trying to prove yourself (your worth) to others using money and possessions as the means to do so. If conflicts occur during this transit, they are likely to be over issues of ownership. This is a time when impulse buying is at a peak. You probably should avoid using credit right now, simply because your spending habits may be excessive and impulsive.

November 2024
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.

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.

AND Cancer Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Cancer:
November 2024 Cancer Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
November 2024
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. 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.

You are likely feeling good in general, and you tend to spread the joy.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until November 3rd:
Venus continues to transit your solar fifth house. Your popularity is on an upward trend during this cycle as others find you especially attractive and friendly. You may have the desire to dress well and in good taste. There is strength in your feelings of love and the power of attraction, which may open the door to new romantic relationships. Yet, you are not aggressive in your approach to love. Instead, you attract more if you allow yourself to be pursued during this cycle. Conditions are highlighted in connection with young people, and quite possibly a female child--a stronger bond could be formed during this period. You are feeling inspired creatively and romantically and you express your loving feelings quite openly now. Creative self-expression of any kind is favored at this time. You will also thoroughly enjoy artistic, musical, or cultural events and activities, especially in the company of a loved one. 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!
From November 3rd to 28th:
Venus graces your solar sixth house now. Establishing a happy and harmonious work environment through friendly relations with co-workers or tidying up your work area comes into focus now. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment. You are generally well liked and respected socially on the job right now. Some laziness is possible now, as you tend to associate pleasure with work! Perhaps you are socializing more than usual on the job. You have good team spirit during this cycle, and you are more tactful and obliging with your co-workers. You are less inclined to fall in love for the sake of love itself during this cycle. Your tendency is to consider whether it is clever to do so! You're most successful doing tasks that involve cooperation and team harmony. You could find that your talents or skills are especially appreciated. Romantic and social activities may revolve around your working environment.
From November 28th forward:
Venus graces your solar seventh house during this period. This is a time for extra attention to a partner or significant other, as well as from that person! You are more inclined to flatter and charm others during this cycle. One-to-one relating appeals to you more than group activities or more casual connections.

In general, you are adaptable when it comes to your affections--very willing to compromise, negotiate, and make peace.

From November 20th forward:
Mercury transits your solar sixth house. This is a good placement for Mercury, as it is the natural ruler of the sixth house.

Health matters are most certainly on your brain as well, and you could be thinking of scheduling check-ups or busy researching ways to improve your health. You may also show a keener interest in improving your basic skills.
Your approach to work during this cycle is pleasant, happy, and logical for the most part, unless you allow worry or scattered energy to enter the picture. You are inclined to want to learn new work skills, or to improve your skills and output in terms of work. There is likely to be more activity, movement, contact, and communications with co-workers now.
You tend to take more interest in organizing your working environment--and this is an excellent time to do so, as you are especially objective and intelligent when it comes to getting a handle on your daily affairs and all of the "little things" that contribute to a feeling of efficiency and competency. Menial tasks become more prominent. Watch, however, for tension or idle chit-chat interfering with your work output during this cycle.
Mercury is retrograde from November 25th to December 15th:
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 sixth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to work, health matters, and daily routines. Be as non-judgmental as you can with co-workers and/or employees. Re-thinking the suitability of your job is possible now, but you should avoid jumping to any premature decisions. Work-related mess-ups can frustrate you, or you might need to redo work that you thought was complete. However, you might find that the refinements you make now will be very valuable later. Double- check your work before submitting it. It's a fine time for researching health and nutrition programs, as well as job skills and opportunities, but perhaps not the best time for beginning all-new programs. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating with co-workers and health professionals; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
This month:
Mars continues to activate your solar first house, supplying you with added energy to apply towards personal goals, and a more assertive and direct approach to the world in general.
This is an excellent period for physical training and exercise of any kind. The desire to be self-sufficient and independent is especially strong now. You are far less tolerant of being restricted by or dependent on others, and this is a good time to identify your personal strengths and take positive action to rectify situations that may have previously felt frustrating or repressive.
You might be especially attracted to personal challenges, and seeing just how far you can push. However, be careful not to push yourself (and others) too far.
Overview Horoscope:
November 2024 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Cancer:
You've been discovering your passions and in better touch with your desire nature, dear Cancer, with Mars in your sign. On November 3rd, however, Mars moves forward, and while you've benefited from Mars' visit of your sign as you scoped out the playing field, it feels time to settle in and focus on building and developing.
In truth, Mars isn't entirely finished with your sign! In December, Mars will turn retrograde, and in early January will return to Cancer. You'll return to some plans and situations and give them more attention, and you'll spend more time working on your assertiveness. For now, you're more interested in attending to your comfort needs.
November also brings much focus on recreation, love, work, and health. A new beginning is in the works regarding your romantic and creative worlds, whether this means a new connection or project, a new way of expressing yourself, or a fresh start in an existing relationship, pursuit, or hobby. You may be in a unique position to share your ideas, happiness, sense of humor, or creative vision with others.
Keep in mind that Mars' transit of your resources sector from the 3rd forward will be longer than usual, and this is because Mars will retrograde on December 6th, backing up over the same tracks it's making now. This is an intense transit for the ambitious pursuit of security or increased income, although there can be some stops and starts. You can be a little tough with yourself when it comes to making money and perhaps a little tough on others if you're not feeling valued. You're also quite motivated to work harder for your money.
From the 11th onward, you're in fabulous shape for attracting the right company or smoothing over a relationship. Giving your time to someone, or allowing a person to shine in their own way as they take the lead, can be very rewarding for both of you with Venus in your partnership sector. This is a fine time for meeting people, and you are feeling unusually open and receptive. Make peace now, with both friends and enemies!
Saturn's direct turn on the 15th helps you work on bringing your expectations down to earth. Self-improvement endeavors can be in focus and more successful as you have a firmer grip on what's realistic and realizable. Your life might improve with support or increased structure and commitment.
But first, the Full Moon on the same day can stir things up. Issues of freedom and individuality are in the spotlight, and an epiphany is likely. After a spell of being fairly wrapped up in your personal life, you may realize the need to reach out to others and remind them that they matter to you. It's a time to enjoy new revelations and share your findings with people you care about. This Full Moon reminds you of your need for friends, associates, community support, or like-minded people.
Certainly, tensions in your social or romantic life can come to a head, or a discovery is significant. There can be a sudden need to detach yourself from personal focus so that you can connect with others in meaningful ways. You might awaken to the need to feel valued as a friend or to align yourself with a cause, goal, or dream to motivate/drive you. A sudden awareness of feelings for someone or a buried relationship problem can emerge and demand attention. You gain new insight into a preexisting problem or your feelings, and this illumination helps you make better choices in the future.
With the Sun's move into your solar sixth house on the 21st, you're more likely to focus on work and practical affairs. You have a more vital understanding of what needs doing to improve your daily life and routines. You're answering to your inner rhythms and might feel dragged down if you need to wait for others to catch up with you! Feeling especially capable and competent, you might enjoy organizing and attending to the "little things" integral to your routines.
With Mercury's retrograde from the 25th forward, look at past projects for ideas and inspiration and focus on editing and improving. Aim to get a project right before moving forward or releasing it. It's a strong time for revising and perfecting. Take the time to work hard at something you love or believe in, as you can make significant progress.

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:
