Happy November Aries! With Venus anointing your sector of partnership this month, you are encouraged to explore new romantic interests, as they fall into your lap as if by fate. Last month’s eclipses could have resulted in a break up, or even just the quiet feeling that you need to find new counterparts, collaborators and co-conspirators. Look for the fast-paced go getters who can honour your need for space on your road to happy destiny.
November brings new people in, and encourages you to embrace the unknown. Let your guard down, and take a risk. Your ruler, Mars, moves from Capricorn to Sagittarius this month, so your focus is evenly split between adventure and work matters. You will find yourself on the receiving end of lots of attention, thanks to Venus.

Emotionally hungover from the eclipses October brought, you are encouraged to seek new methods for relating to others. You may have placed a lot of value on superficial matters that don’t hold substance, and some of your relationships mirrored that. But you have changed, and thus, it’s time to reallocate your attention towards what you know you need.
Scorpio falls into your sector of counterparts, helping you find fellows that inspire your growth. Anchor in the changes you need to make in how much you give away, and equally inspect what you take in from intimate exchanges. With the planets oscillating between your sectors of partnership and shared energy, you are prompted to leave the past behind, and embrace the changes you’ve made the past few years. Venus moves into your sector of health, encouraging you to embrace self-care and opt for a balanced wellness routine.

Scorpio brings intense focus to work matters, and you are driven to make adjustments to your routine, so you can clear your focus and maintain momentum. Microscopic clues from your body get louder, and you are called to transform how you approach health. Go to a sauna and sweat it out, or declutter your office space. Get rid of anything heavy from the past weighing you down. Eliminate addictions, and reacquaint with deep passions.
Venus deposits blessings into your region of creativity, bestowing you with artistic inspiration and a flair for fun. With the Sun transiting through your 6th house of productivity and health, you’re in a balancing act, eager to anchor in this newfound creative spark as well as tend to mundane everyday matters. The month closes with a Full Moon in your sign, making what you need to let go of as clear as day.

Your childlike, playful nature is enhanced in November, and you may feel like you have age regressed. You need to return to your roots, redecorate your private sanctuary and offer yourself care. Clear out your home sphere to make room for more restoration. Ponder themes of family and early upbringing. Never underestimate the power of being playful, as it shifts you into a receptive state and connects you to your inner child.
With the Sun gliding through the watery sign of Scorpio for most of November, you require privacy, as your intuition is enhanced. Strange synchronicities may be in store, and you may find yourself speaking about things before they happen. The month culminates with a Full Moon in your sector of the subconscious, acting as a celestial exit valve for buried emotions.

The Sun, your ruler, transits through the deep waters of Scorpio, increasing your appetite for intensity and intimacy. Venus moves through your communication region, as you are encouraged to be bold and honest with whoever has captured your intrigue. As we move through this next astrological era, you are encouraged to honour your truth, even if it makes you feel precarious. Don’t fall back on letting your pride interfere with omissions of love.
The New Moon in Scorpio brings up buried family secrets, and you are encouraged to regroup and refine your sense of belonging. Your social nature may be slowed down by the intuitive feels of Scorpio season, at least until the 22nd, when the Sun moves into Sagittarius. Let this window of time act as a deep portal into your past, and give yourself permission to be more insular.

The month begins in a state of eclipse fatigue and temporary neurosis, as Mercury in Scorpio has you overanalyzing close connections. Venus in Libra anoints your sector of money, increasing your chances of earning and refining your self-worth. If interpersonal fall outs brought on by eclipse season have you in a rut, now is the time to replenish your sense of self. Do things that make you feel special, and don’t be wary of using affirmations.
Scorpio season uncovers hidden truth in relational dynamics, and can bring out vindictive, controlling traits for some. Try to operate from a place of vulnerability. Don’t shy away from the truth. Mercury amplifies your voice when it moves into Sagittarius, enhancing your perspective and appetite for risk taking. Chances are, you will probably be studying something unusual from home, enlivened with the desire to experience new outlooks.

November opens you up to new avenues of income, as the stars configure connections in your sector of financial blessings. With the Sun transiting through Scorpio, you are learning how to fine tune your magnetism and personal orbit, and attract, rather than chase.
Venus enters your sign on the 8th and dynamics taken away by eclipse season are replaced by new ones. You are looking for like-minded partnerships, over imbalanced theatrics. The spotlight is on you and you are ready to bask in admiration, from lovers and colleagues alike. November ends with your focus on study, as the axis of your mind gets fired up by new ideas. Your skills of reasoning and equilibrium will come in handy, and you may be asked to play the mediator.

Your season is upon us, and as the Sun glides through the heavens, it fires you up, providing you with insights and intuitive intel on future steps. Venus trails behind, bestowing psychic clues about your connectivity to others. Utilise the New Moon on the 13th to set intentions for the year ahead.
October ended in an eclipse in your sector of partners, eliminating ill suited counterparts from your sphere. In November, you possess the paranormal magnetism big enough to draw exactly the right people and things towards you. Financial momentum builds, as the personal planets pave their way into Sagittarius, giving you new business ventures and avenues of income.

With the hurdles of eclipse season in your rear-view mirror, you are ready to be more insular and introspective. You will want to spend the first half of November in privacy, pondering great mysteries and doing guerilla research on big questions. Follow the clues into the dark, and don’t be afraid to say no to the odd social engagement. You will be incredibly busy during the latter half of November, so use this time to recharge.
Pay attention to your dreams and psychic insights. Fine tune your mind-body connection. The month ends with a Full Moon in Gemini, and you may butt heads with a fellow. Not everyone shares your visionary outlook, so be wary of engaging in debates over things that simply don’t matter.

November draws your attention to friendships and community, as you search for like-minded individuals who share your ambitious integrity. You’ll be busy with social engagement, pulled into shared spaces and working in group settings. With Saturn, your ruler in Pisces, it’s time to practise psychic mastery, pairing your intuitive hunches with pragmatic steps. Articulate your inner knowledge, even if they sound absurd. Look for friends who brainstorm, explore and debate – rather than gossip or slander.
Last month’s eclipses may have resulted in unexpected career pivots, but with Venus moving into your career sector this month, you are thrust into the professional spotlight. It will be easy to attract monetary opportunities that align with your sense of purpose.

Scorpio season propels you into the public sphere, and you are encouraged to publish work, or deliver a message to a wider audience. This may bring up age-old fears, especially regarding perception from peers. You possess the unique gift of being able to see things from all sides, and your voice is important.
With Venus moving into your region of travel and higher learning, you may find yourself yearning to run off into a foreign land. Even if it isn’t possible, you can let your mind traverse unchartered territory by exploring new concepts and philosophies.

Saturn stations direct in your sign on the 4th, prompting you to practise greater discipline. You are a jedi-master-empath guru and it’s time to step up your game, embrace your eccentricities and act on your intuition. With the time-keeper in your sign this year and next, you may have adopted a more stoic, cynical attitude. All of this is catering to your innate need to hold firmer boundaries, particularly when it comes to intimacy.
With Venus traversing the sector of sex and death, all of this will be put to the test. Pair healthy scepticism with a sense of self-containment, and know when you need to take a step back from others. October showed you what you needed to let go of and November commands you to integrate that transformation, as Scorpio season transmutes the past.
