Want to know how this information can affect your life?
Welcome to the astrological overview of November 2025, the penultimate month of a year that has been dynamic, intense, and marked by relevant planetary movements.
We can expect the final Mercury retrograde season of 2025 (this time in Sagittarius) and the last stop of Uranus in Taurus before it moves definitively into Gemini in 2026.
November will also be marked by the end of Saturn retrograde (finally!), bringing new momentum to processes that felt stuck or required more discipline and commitment over the past months. On a personal level, Venus in Scorpio enhances sensuality, mystery, and introspection.
The following forecasts are collective in nature. To understand how these movements manifest in your birth chart, access your free Personalized Horoscope on Astrolink and discover the specific influences for your life.

Forecast for the first half of November
The month begins with a tension between Venus and Jupiter, creating a conflicting energy between desires, needs (and potential excesses), and the initiative to nurture others in relationships.
The passage of Marte through Sagittarius signals a time of expansion and initiative. For those waiting for the right moment to put ideas into action with enthusiasm and trust that things will flow, this is the time, especially if Sagittarius is relevant in your chart or resonates with your natal Mars or Ascendant.
One point of caution: during this period, Mars and Uranus clash, so make sure your actions are well directed. Uranus in Gemini inspires new ideas and brings a context of speed, chaos, and dispersion when prioritizing actions. Be cautious not to stay too much in the mental realm or spread your energy too thin without organization.
On November 6, Venus shifts from the air element (Libra), associated with exchange and balance, to the water element (Scorpio), which brings depth of emotion, magnetism, and truth in relationships. Until the 30th, this is an invitation to explore your sexuality, understand inner taboos, engage more deeply in relationships, and work on jealousy and attachment issues.
Returning to Uranus, retrograde in Gemini since September, it re-enters Taurus for the last time. We’re already familiar with this transit, ongoing since 2019. This final visit is a chance to reassess finances, prosperity and scarcity mindsets, and personal values, both tangible and intangible, until February, when Uranus resumes direct motion and returns to Gemini in 2026 for a 7-year stay. If there’s still something to adjust in these areas, this is the time, because much will change.
On November 9, Mercury begins its last retrograde of the year, this time in Sagittarius. As with every Mercury retrograde, expect delays, miscommunications, and potential issues with bureaucracy, transportation, and technology. Important decisions should be made carefully and thoughtfully during this time.
In Sagittarius, it’s time to reassess your worldview and the beliefs that guide your life and decisions. Also watch for repetitive patterns that affect your sense of direction or priorities.
Finally, on November 11, Jupiter begins its retrograde in Cancer, amplifying the themes of reflection and adding even more caution to this period of review.
Forecast for the second half of November
As the second half of the month begins, the Sun, Jupiter, and Saturn form harmonious aspects in the sky, bringing flow and ease to processes. Personally, this is a good time to face your shadows with care and engage in healing and transformation through self-awareness. With all three planets in water signs, emotional management is key during this time.
On November 19, retrograde Mercury returns to Scorpio. Matters requiring secrecy, investigation, or raw honesty come back into focus. Listen between the lines, verify facts, and avoid jumping to conclusions—these actions align with this retrograde phase.
The following day, the lunation in Scorpio reinforces this trend. The Moon meets the Sun to form the New Moon and also aligns with Mercury. It’s a moment to reset mentally and emotionally, recognize patterns, clear confusion, and rewrite agreements. Interactions planted now grow stronger when there’s direction, excellence, and determination.
With the Sun entering Sagittarius on November 21, we enter the final stretch of spring in the southern hemisphere / fall in the northern hemisphere. A desire for freedom, adventure, and optimism grows—and this mindset attracts what we often call “luck.” Wisdom, study, and exploration of the unknown are all favored. Just be mindful of excesses and Sagittarius’ tendency toward overconfidence or blunt pragmatism.
The month ends with the conclusion of some retrograde movements, Saturn (which began retrograding in Aries in July and moved into Pisces) and Mercury (which moved backward between Sagittarius and Scorpio). From this point forward, we may feel a sense of momentum returning, with some processes picking up speed again.
