Highlights for November 1-10

The first major aspect for the month is a late-night waning water trine by the Moon to Jupiter on the 1st.  The 2nd will kick things up a notch or two as there will be 7 exact major aspects.  On the 3rd, Mars will make a water trine to Neptune after which He goes void-of-course for just over 9 hours.  On the 4th, there will be 4 major and 2 quincunx aspects, plus Venus will go void-of-course and Mars will enter Sagittarius.  The 5th offers up the Taurus Full Moon, followed on the 6th by a cornucopia of events as there will be 7 exact major and 3 quincunx aspects, plus Venus will enter Scorpio as She continues Her pursuit of the Sun.  On the 7th, retrograde Uranus returns to Taurus, and Venus will square Pluto.  On the 9th, Mercury will station retrograde, followed on the 10th with 8 major aspects, all by the Moon.

 

11/01/25 – 11:17 pm – fast Moon waning water trine shadow Jupiter

This is the only exact major aspect today.  Coming this late it suggests that the energy of the last exact major aspect from yesterday, Moon waxing water trine Sun, will carry over through most of today, All Saints Day,  The waxing trine represents a time to pause and review any recent actions and assess how they are developing.  This isn’t just about what you have done today, so you may want to review some of the things you did yesterday, just in case you overlooked something.

Just 30 minutes earlier (10:47 pm), the fast Moon made a waning inconjunct/ quincunx to Venus.  It is Saturday night and this “I didn’t see that coming” aspect may disrupt any romantic plans you may have, or it just might make some for you.

 

11/02/25 – 12:31 am – fast Moon mutable water conjunction retrograde Saturn

This is the first of seven exact major aspects today, the first six all by the Moon, with the next five in less than five hours.  With predominantly waxing aspects, this looks like a good time to focus on newer developing work.  This Sunday morning could test your ability to focus while the world around you may appear to be burning.  Coming at this time on Sunday morning and in  the spiritual sign of Pisces, be sure to note any dreams, insights, “a-ha” moments, feelings, or other sensations as they may be very important.

 

11/02/25 – 2:00 am – Daylight Savings Time Ends

Check to make sure that all of your “clocks” have reset to 1 am.  If one hasn’t, you may need to reset it yourself.

 

11/02/25 – 5:17 am – fast Moon waxing water trine Mars

Coming at this time, this pause and review trine, the second aspect of the day, offers an opportunity to review what you did yesterday and make any changes, adjustments, or corrections to keep things on track. 

Less than two hours later (7:15 am), the fast Moon will make another mutable water conjunction for the third aspect of the day, this time to retrograde Neptune, and then go void-of-course.  This could be an opportunity to start that new dream project or refocus on what you were considering starting earlier with the Saturn conjunction.  Just 24 minutes later (7:39 am), the fast Moon will rush into cardinal fire Aries emotionally charged and ready for action.

Then 22 minutes later (8:01 am), the fast Moon will make the fourth and only waning aspect of the day, a waning sextile to retrograde Uranus.  This could be a reminder that you may have forgotten to do or complete something yesterday or the day before.  Do you have any work that was due on October 31?  If so, finish it now as this is the complete something sextile.

 

11/02/25 – 10:05 am – fast Moon waxing sexile (OOBs) Pluto

It may be Sunday, but perhaps there is a home or other personal project that you started recently.  If so, this fifth aspect of the day suggests that you get back to it, even if you just do one or two little things, do something to keep it moving forward.  This is the review of any new things started recently, so it could be about something you started last week that now needs your attention.

 

11/02/25 – 2:18 pm – fast Moon waxing fire trine shadow (OOBs) Mercury

This pause and review trine is the sixth aspect of the day.  What have you done today or perhaps the past few days?  Perhaps you missed or overlooked something?  Maybe some new has come in that might change what you did?  Give it some thought.  If you think of something, follow-up on it.  Is there something that you need to do now?  Handle it or put it on  the top of your “to-do” list for tomorrow.

 

11/02/25 – 3:17 pm – Venus waxing cardinal square shadow Jupiter

This crisis of action square is the seventh and final aspect of the day.  Is there something that you should or need to take action on?  It may be Sunday, but there may be things you need to do, if not today, then tomorrow.  You have time today to take that action you have been thinking about or perhaps planning on doing.

 

11/03/25 – 2:11 am – fast Moon waxing inconjunct/quincunx the Sun

This early Monday morning surprise aspect between the two great lights could wake you with an important message.  It may come in a dream, as a sudden awareness, or a sound, vision, feeling or other sensation.  If it happens, note what it was, the time, and as much detail as possible. 

Less than two hours later (3:57 am), Venus will make a waning inconjunct/ quincunx to retrograde Saturn.  If you are looking for some clarity, this surprise aspect may be just the delivery tool for you.  Note whatever happens with as much detail as possible.

These two surprise aspects to start the day suggest that you may have less control over your day than you are used to or would like to have.  There won’t be a major aspect until late this evening.

 

11/03/25 – 7:59 pm – Mars waning water trine retrograde Neptune

This pause and plan your next action trine provides the energy for this evening.  This consolidating aspect could be a good opportunity to make plans for tomorrow.  Think about what you should finish tomorrow.

Following this, Mars will go void-of-course for just over 9 hours.  Fortunately, this is during the late evening and night hours so not starting a new fitness program or sports hobby shouldn’t be too difficult.  You can’t be too cautious during this time.  If you are out, avoid dark places, taking risks, and making impulsive decisions.  Perhaps most important, watch out for the other guy, you know, the one who causes accidents.

 

11/04/25 – 12:25 am – fast Moon waning cardinal square shadow Jupiter

Coming in the early morning hour, this is the first of four exact major and two quincunx aspects today.  This crisis of consciousness square could manifest as a prophetic dream, memory recall, or sensation.  If so, note what it was, the time, and as much detail as you can.  Unless the message is obvious, after making your notes, tuck them under your pillow, then sleep on it.  The answers you seek may come in the morning.

 

11/04/25 -3:21 am – fast Moon cardinal opposition Venus

This is the second exact major aspect today.  Following this, both will go void-of course.  The Moon’s will last for almost five hours while Venus’ will last over 53 hours.  For the Moon, avoid starting anything new until after the Moon enters Taurus.  For Venus, avoid starting or trying to start a new relationship.

 

11/04/25 – 5:01 am – Mars enters mutable fire Sagittarius

Mars void-of-course is over.  That doesn’t mean that it is safe to engage in dangerous behavior or start an argument.  While you should be able to relax, don’t take any unnecessary chances.

 

11/04/25 – 8:16 am – fast Moon enters fixed earth Taurus

Now in Taurus, the sign of her exaltation, where She gains strength, She is more inclined to focus on matters involving your home and personal style.  The next couple of days could be a good time to consider a makeover, update your wardrobe, or your personal space.

Nine minutes later (8:25 am), the fast Moon will make a waxing inconjunct/ quincunx to Mars.  Coming before the opposition, this aspect could serve to identify an area of your life that is out of balance and needs your immediate attention.  The next aspect may provide you with the answers or guidance that you need to find your balance.

 

11/04/25 – 9:30 am – Mars mutable opposition retrograde Uranus

This combination suggests that as you do your work and assess whether specific items are ready to move from waxing expansive to waning condensing completing.  Tap into your unique abilities to overcome any obstacles that seem to be blocking you and to achieve your goals.

 

11/04/25 – 10:36 am – fast Moon waxing fixed square (OOBs) Pluto

Involving planets in fixed signs, this crisis of action square needs you to focus on your actions.  Don’t allow yourself to be distracted or you may find your efforts coming up short. 

Over six hours later (4:47 pm), the fast Moon will make a waxing inconjunct/ quincunx to shadow (OOBs) Mercury for the last aspect of the day.  This is the aspect that precedes the opposition.  Take some time to review your work and identify those things that are ready to move to the waning, consolidating side. 

 

11/05/25 – 5:19 am – fast Full Moon fixed opposition Sun

Most commonly known as the Beaver or Frost Moon, this Full Moon is at 13 Taurus 23’.  The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “Shellfish groping and children playing.”  This shows that all living creatures can survive and share this world.  While this suggests a live and let live approach to life, it also carries the warning to be careful that you don’t get swept away by the water’s waves or go in too deep.  Exactly opposite, the Sun is at 13 Scorpio 23’.  The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “Telephone linemen at work.”  This symbol suggests the need or ability to connect with others through situations, tools, or equipment.  Put together, they offer a solution to any problems you may be facing through the assistance of others or by using the “right tool.”  Are you feeling out of balance, challenged, or blocked?  Your answer may be here.  What was the first thing you heard, saw, thought, or felt this morning?  Therein may lie your answers.  This Full Moon energy should last most of the day.  Some may feel as if “all eyes are on them,” or as if they have a spotlight on them.  Focus on those things that appear to be ready to be “harvested,” that are ready to be completed and for final processing.

 

11/05/25 – 10:41 pm – fast Moon goes Out-of-Bounds North

It is late as the Moon makes Her monthly journey beyond the northern, or higher boundary of the Sun.  For some, this could bring up thoughts of the future, perhaps one’s own mortality, or where they want to be in five years, next year, next month, or maybe just tomorrow.  Thoughts and plans may tend to focus more on the what may be rather than the what is or what was.  Be sure to note any dreams, insights, feelings, or other sensations that you might have as they may be trying to tell you something important 

Just under one hour later (11:40 pm), the fast (OOBn) Moon will make a waning sextile to shadow Jupiter.  This is the closing or finishing aspect.  Is there something that you want or need to finish tomorrow?  If so, you may want to start your day with it tomorrow.

 

11/06/25 – 12:24 am – fast (OOBn) Moon waxing sextile retrograde Saturn

This is the first of seven exact major and three quincunx aspects plus two sign changes today.  There is a mix of waxing, waning, oppositions and a conjunction today so be flexible.  Buckle up, this could be a very bumpy ride.  With the waxing sextile as the first aspect, this suggests you may want to look at the most recent things you have started.  How are they developing?  What should your next action be to keep things moving forward?  Note any dreams, insights, feelings, or other sensations that come to you in the night.

Just over six hours later (6:41 am), the fast (OOBn) Moon will make a waning inconjunct/quincunx to Venus.  This suggests that someone else may upset your plans for the day so be flexible and have a plan “B,” maybe a “C” too, just in case.  Note what happened and how you felt about it.

Ten minutes later (6:51 am), the fast (OOBn) Moon will make a waxing sextile to retrograde Neptune, after which She will go void-of-course for 29 minutes.  Another waxing sextile suggests that you may need to return your focus to newer things started recently.  It is a relatively short Moon void-of-course so just set aside any new thing that might come up until after the Moon enters Gemini.

 

11/06/25 – 7:11 am – Mars waning sextile (OOBs) Pluto

This is the closing sextile suggesting that you may need to shift your focus to things that need to be completed soon, maybe this week, or maybe today

 

11/06/25 – 7:20 am – fast (OOBn) Moon enters Gemini

Conversations may take center stage at this time.  Choose your words carefully.  Be clear with your message.  Be sure you understand what the other person is saying.

Just six minutes later (7:26 am), the fast (OOBn) Moon will make a mutable air conjunction with retrograde Uranus.  This meeting could bring an unexpected revelation or other person into the conversation.  Abraham Lincoln said it best, “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt.”

Just over one hour later (8:37 am), Venus will make a waning inconjunct/ quincunx to retrograde Neptune for the second quincunx of the day.  This aspect follows the opposition suggesting that something you thought was ready to “harvest,” wasn’t.  If this relates to you, take time to rectify it now so that a small matter doesn’t become a major issue later.

 

11/06/25 – 9:42 am – fast (OOBn) Moon waxing air trine (OOBs) Pluto

This is the pause and review of any recent action’s trine.  Are things developing  as you expected?  Do you need to redo, change, delete, or restart something?  If so, best do it now or it could require more time and effort later. 

Just seven minutes later (9:49 am), the fast (OOBn) Moon will make a mutable opposition to Mars for the sixth major aspect of the day.  Is there some part of yourself that doesn’t feel like it is in balance?  Perhaps your physical self.  If there is something about your body that feels off balance, you may want to make an appointment with your doctor for a checkup.

 

11/06/25 – 2:39 pm – Venus enters Scorpio

As the ruler of Taurus, the sign opposite Scorpio, Venus is now in the sign of Her detriment, placing Her in a weakened state.  Matters ruled by Venus such as love, relationships, money, desires, etc., will require greater effort to achieve and may be delayed, at least while Venus is in Scorpio.

Less than one hour later (3:31 pm), Venus will make a waxing inconjunct/ quincunx to retrograde Uranus for the third and final quincunx of the day.  This aspect precedes the opposition and may bring awareness to something that you thought was ready, really isn’t.  Or it may highlight an area of your life that isn’t in balance.

 

11/06/25 – 5:19 pm – fast (OOBn) Moon mutable opposition shadow (OOBs) Mercury

This is the seventh and final major aspect of the day.  With the Moon in Mercury’s Gemini home and Mercury in the opposite sign, Sagittarius, this could lead to some very interesting conversations or ideas.  Then again, with Mercury in Sagittarius, the sign of their detriment, the emotional Moon may have Her way with more practical Mercury which could lead to disagreements.  Keep a cool head and your wits about you.  One of  the challenges when dealing with mutable signs is just making a decision as self-doubt may rear its ugly head.

 

11/07/25 – 7:47 am – fast (OOBn) Moon waning inconjunct/ quincunx Sun

This post-opposition quincunx is the only aspect until later this evening.  It may raise questions about recent decisions you have made regarding things you thought were ready to be completed or decisions in general.  With this the only aspect for almost 11 hours, expect your day to have more surprises in store for you.

 

11/07/25 – 6:22 pm – retrograde Uranus returns to Taurus

After testing the mutable air of Gemini for four months, Uranus returns to fixed earth Taurus for the next 5 1/2 months to tie up some loose ends.  Uranus will then return to Gemini on April 25, 2026, in time to celebrate America’s 250th birthday, July 4, 2026.  What do we expect when Uranus returns to Gemini next year?  If history is an indication, it will be interesting to say the least.  More about this in future forecasts.

 

11/07/25 – 7:44 pm – Venus waning fixed square (OOBs) Pluto

This evening crisis of consciousness square suggests that you may want to make plans for what you will do tomorrow.  Think consolidate, pare down, what to do next to get it finished as you make your plans.

 

11/07/25 – 11:49 pm – fast (OOBn) Moon waxing mutable square retrograde Saturn

Nothing like a crisis of action square late at night to have you tossing and turning.  With both in mutable, indecisive signs, sometimes making a decision can be very challenging.  Saturn can be stubborn while the Moon can question everything Saturn suggests.  Note any dreams, insights, feelings or other sensations that come to you during the night.  You may find your answers in them.

 

11/08/25 – 6:32 am – fast (OOBn) Moon goes Void-of-Course

Following a mutable waxing crisis of action square to retrograde Uranus, the Moon will go void-of-course for 34 minutes, until entering Her home sign of Cancer at 7:06 am.  Coming at this time, you should be able to set aside any new things until after the Moon enters Cancer.  Now in her home, the Moon’s energy may have some people focusing more on their homes and families and perhaps less on the daily grind of their job.

Almost 2 1/2 hours later (9:35 am), the fast (OOBn) Moon will make a waxing inconjunct/quincunx to (OOBs) Pluto, the first of three quincunxes today.  As Gomer Pyle often said, “surprise, surprise, surprise!”  Be flexible.  Be alert.  Be aware of your surroundings.  Be present.

 

11/08/25 – 10:52 am – fast (OOBn) Moon waning water trine Venus

This is the pause and plan your next consolidating aspect trine.  Check your work to see if you have anything that is due soon.  If so, focus on them.  Take the next appropriate action to keep them moving forward toward completion. 

Just over one hour later (12:08 pm), the Moon will make a waning inconjunct/ quincunx to Mars for the second quincunx of the day.  Accidents!  One definite surprise possibility when Mars is involved in a quincunx aspect.  Watch out for the other guy.  Obey all traffic rules and lights.  Avoid impulsive decisions and arguments.

Over six hours later (6:17 pm), the fast (OOBn) Moon will make a waxing inconjunct/quincunx to shadow Mercury station for the third quincunx and last aspect of the day.  Take a vow of silence as Mercury will station retrograde late tomorrow morning.  Speak only when spoken to.  Don’t embellish your answers.  Choose your words very carefully.

 

11/09/25 – 11:02 am – (OOBs) Mercury stations retrograde

Mercury is at 6 Sagittarius 52’, as they pause and prepare to retrace their steps back to 20 Scorpio 42’ over the next 20 days.  Mercury entered 6 Sagittarius on November 6 and won’t retrograde back to 5 Sagittarius until November 12, after spending 6 days at 6 Sagittarius.  Those with Mercury in Sagittarius or any planet or sensitive point near 6 Sagittarius (3-9 Sagittarius) are most likely to feel this shift.  The Sabian Symbol for 6 Sagittarius is “Cupid knocking at the door.”  The upside to this is being willing to risk it all for a chance at love.  It symbolizes the spreading and sharing of love with others, family, friends, neighbors, and strangers.  After all, strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet.  The downside is not being willing to take that chance.  Being afraid to love for fear of having a broken heart.  Consider the old saying, “Nothing ventured, nothing gained.”

 

11/09/25 – 12:26 pm – fast (OOBn) Moon waning water trine Sun

This is the pause and plan your next action trine as work moves from start, to harvest (basic natural product), to completion.  Considering what you are working on, what do you do next to keep it moving to completion?

 

11/10/25 – 1:09 am – decelerating (OOBn) Moon cardinal water conjunction shadow Jupiter

This is the first of eight exact major aspects, all by the Moon, today.  These aspects involve predominantly water signs in the morning and will shift to non-complementary fire signs after noon, which could make for a rather unsettled day.  Water puts out fire, but when the water is contained, fire can boil it away.  What do you want to start today?  While Jupiter is known for embellishing and expanding things, when He is in His shadow or retrograde, this can change.  Expect that any reward may be less than you expected or were promised and that it may take longer to be delivered.

With this and the next aspect coming during the night, be sure to note any dreams, insights, feelings, or other sensations that you may have as they may provide valuable clues as to what these aspects are about. 

Thirty minutes later (1:39 am), the Moon will make a waxing water trine to retrograde Saturn for the second aspect of the day.  This is the pause and review of any recent actions trine.  When your day starts, you may want to start by reviewing any actions you may have taken yesterday or late last week.  Saturn can be a strict taskmaster so when you review your recent actions, make sure that you have followed all instructions and have completed all required steps.

 

11/10/25 – 8:54 am – decelerating (OOBn) Moon waxing water trine retrograde Neptune

This is another pause and review of recent actions trine and the third aspect of the day.  With Neptune involved this time, look for things that you may have missed, misread, or misinterpreted.  Recheck your actions just to be sure.

Twenty-nine minutes later (9:23 am), the (OOBn) Moon will make a waxing sextile to retrograde Uranus for the fourth aspect of the day, after which She will go void-of-course for 11 minutes, entering Leo at 9:34 am.  This is the first aspect after the conjunction.  You may want to use this void-of-course to check any new things you have started recently to see how they are progressing.  This is also an opportune time to plan your next action.

 

11/10/25 – 11:24 am – decelerating Moon returns inbounds.

The Moon is at 1 Leo 03’ when She returns into the boundary of the Sun.  Some may feel this shift as a sense of return to normalcy, with emotions and feelings more controlled.

Less than one hour later (12:16 pm), the Moon will make a fixed opposition to (OOBs) Pluto for the fifth aspect of the day.  Finding a balance between Pluto, the abductor of Persephone, and the Moon, symbol of the mother and femininity, may be more difficult than you expected.  Trust your intuition to guide you.

 

11/10/25 – 5:48 pm – decelerating Moon waning fire trine Mars

This pause and plan your next action trine is the sixth aspect of the day.  With Mars involved, action may be the key word in deciding what to do next.

Less than one hour later (6:44 pm), the decelerating Moon will make a waning fixed square to Venus for the seventh aspect of the day.  This aspect may symbolize the action you were planning earlier.  When taking your action, it should be something you believe will enhance whatever you are working on.

 

11/10/25 – 9:21 pm – decelerating Moon waning fire trine retrograde Mercury

The day ends with another pause and plan your next action trine for the eighth and final aspect of the day.  Unless you are working late, this may be about what to do to start your day tomorrow.  You may receive a “message” providing some guidance on what to do.  If so, be sure to note as much as possible about the message.

  

Forecast for November 11-21

Jupiter stations retrograde on the 11th, followed by Mercury conjunct Mars on the 12th.  There will be 5 major aspects on the 15th and then just one on the 16th.   There will be 4 major and 3 quincunx aspects on the 17th, and retrograde Mercury will return to Scorpio on the 18th.  There will be 6 major aspects on the 19th and 5 on the 20th.

*************************************************

11/11/25 – Veteran’s Day Celebrated in America

This day originally honored those who served during the Great War, World War I, which ended on November 11, 1918.  Today it honors all American veterans of all wars and branches of service.  Thank you for your service!

 

11/11/25 – 5:03 am – retrograde Mercury returns In-Bounds

As they recross 6 Sagittarius 38’, just 14 minutes, of arc (less than 1/4 degree) from where they stationed retrograde 2 days ago, retrograde Mercury will return into the protective and restrictive boundaries of the Sun.  This won’t offset the perils of Mercury retrograde but should temper them somewhat.

 

11/11/25 – 8:41 am – Jupiter stations retrograde

Jupiter appears to pause at 25 Cancer 09’, preparing to retrace His steps back to 15 Cancer 05’.  Jupiter entered 25 Cancer on November 1 and won’t retrace His steps to 24 Cancer until November 21.  Those with planets or other sensitive points at or near 23 25 Cancer or 23-25 degrees of one of the other cardinal signs, Capricorn, Aries, or Libra, are most likely to feel this.  The Sabian Symbol for 25 Cancer is “Guests are reading in the library of a luxurious home.”  This symbol suggests a desire for luxury and indulgence.  The cautionary is to beware of self-indulgence as time can slip away when you aren’t paying attention.  This also offers an opportunity to relax and share quiet time and good conversation with others.

 

11/11/25 – 9:28 pm – average Moon waning square Sun

This crisis of consciousness square offers an opportunity to create a plan for execution either tonight or tomorrow, that will allow you to bypass or eliminate obstacles and move older work in progress toward completion.

 

11/12/25 – 7:14 am – average Moon waxing inconjunct/quincunx retrograde Saturn

This unforeseen aspect not only starts the day, it will probably dominate the morning as it is the only morning aspect.  Whatever plans you have made, you may not be able to get to them until this afternoon as other people and things may take precedence over them.  With retrograde Saturn involved, it may have to do with a change in time frame or instructions.  Something you thought was done may need to be redone.

It will be almost 8 hours (3:05 pm), before the next aspect, in this case, another waxing inconjunct/quincunx by the Moon, this time to retrograde Neptune.  When there is an aspect to Saturn, another one to Neptune won’t be far behind.  This aspect could dissolve some point of reality for you.  Stay flexible and keep an open mind.

 

11/12/25 – 3:15 pm – retrograde Mercury mutable fire conjunction Mars

This is their second of five conjunctions starting this current Mercury-Mars cycle.  Their first was on October 19, 2025, and their third will be on January 17, 2026, their fourth will be on March 15, 2026, and their fifth and final for this cycle will be on April 20, 2026.  This suggests that something, possibly involving writing or communicating, may need to be redone, restarted, or interrupted several times before you can finally get it going.  If you believe in something that you are doing, don’t quit, don’t give up on it.  Trust your intuition.

 

11/12/25 – 3:29 pm – slowing Moon goes Void-of-course

Following a fixed waxing square to retrograde Uranus, the Moon goes void-of-course for just 23 minutes, entering Virgo at 3:52 pm.  Your focus should be on newer work in progress as you decide what action to take.  With retrograde Uranus involved, don’t discount things that have worked before, no matter how unique or unexpected they might be.  With the Moon now in mutable earth Virgo, be sure to thoroughly analyze any situation before taking action.  Be your own best critic. 

Almost three hours later (6:50 pm), the Moon will make a waning inconjunct/quincunx to (OOBs) Pluto.  This could be something personal that you weren’t expecting.  You have time before this aspect to try to figure out what it might be about.  Use this time to consider some different optional responses instead of just waiting to react.

 

11/13/25 – 2:49 am – slowing Moon waning mutable square retrograde Mercury

With all waning aspects today, you may want to focus on older work that is ready or needs to be made ready to complete.  With two crisis of consciousness squares to start the day, be sure to note any dreams, insights, feelings or other sensations as they may provide helpful information.  Retrograde Mercury is up first, so when your day starts, you may want to reread, re-spellcheck, re-grammar check anything you have written or are writing and any planned communications before sending.

A little over an hour later (4:03 am), the Moon will make a waning mutable square to Mars.  With Mars now in the drivers’ seat, avoid impulsive decisions.  Be the Moon in critical analytical, mutable earth Virgo.  Be your own critic as you carefully analyze your options and probable outcomes before deciding.

 

11/13/25 – 7:47 am – slowing Moon waning sextile Venus

This is the last aspect today and it isn’t even 8 am.  This is the finish something sextile so your focus should be on things that need to be and can be completed soonest.  This energy will probably carry through until mid-morning tomorrow as there won’t be another aspect for over 27 hours.

 

11/14/25 – 11:20 am – slow Moon waning sextile Sun

This is another finish something aspect, continuing yesterday’s energy.  Maintain your focus.  What needs to be completed next?  Start there and work things in order from most to least critical.

 

11/14/25 – 4:09 pm – slow Moon waxing sextile retrograde Jupiter

Now you can shift your emphasis for today to newer work as you plan what actions to take next to keep things moving forward.

Just 21 minutes later (4:30 pm), the slow Moon will make a mutable opposition to retrograde Saturn.  This is the midpoint in their current cycle.  With retrograde Saturn involved and both in mutable, sometimes indecisive signs, finding where things are out of balance and how to get them back into balance won’t be easy.  Saturn is about structure, but while retrograde, those structures may not be what they seem, further confusing things.  Be critical as you analyze your situation.  Trust your gut feeling to guide you.

 

11/15/25 – 12:50 am – slow Moon mutable opposition retrograde Neptune

This is the first of five exact major aspects, all by the Moon, today.  This is dreamtime, so be sure to record any that you may have.  An old dream or one that has been repeated, will be most important.  Note the time and as much detail as you can as that information will be helpful when you analyze it.  You should also note anything unusual that you see, hear, or feel.  Do you consider this late Friday night or early Saturday morning?  If you are still out, caution is advised as anything that might be out of balance, could really “trip you up.”  Doublecheck the obvious as something that you think is fine may not be.

Only 18 minutes later (1:08 am), following a waxing earth trine to retrograde Uranus, the second aspect of the day, the slow Moon will go void-of-course for 36 minutes, until entering Libra at 1:44 am.  Most will sleep through this void-of-course, but if you aren’t one of them, just don’t start anything new.  This is the pause and review of any recent actions trine.  You could use the time to review what you did Friday.  If there is something that you might have overlooked or forgotten to do, this is your opportunity to take care of it.

 

11/15/25 – 4:55 am – slow Moon waning air trine (OOBs) Pluto

This is the third aspect of the day.  It is Saturday so many may still be sleeping.  This is the pause and plan your next action trine.  Considering things that you have been working on that are nearing their due date, what should your next action be to get things finished on time?

 

11/15/25 – 9:40 am – slow Moon waning sextile retrograde Mercury

This fourth aspect of the day is a finish something sextile.  It could be something work related or perhaps some project at home or helping a friend.  It’s your choice.  With retrograde Mercury involved, you may want to recall how you solved or handled similar things in the past.  This aspect sets the tone for today as the next and last aspect won’t be until this evening.  This suggests that you may want to focus on older work or things that need to be completed soon.

 

11/15/25 – 6:16 pm – slow Moon waning sextile Mars

The fifth and final aspect of the day is another finish things sextile.  With Mars involved, work with your strengths.  Be efficient so you aren’t wasting time or energy.  This energy will continue through most of tomorrow as the next aspect isn’t for almost 27 hours.

 

11/16/25 – 9:08 pm – Sun waxing water trine retrograde Jupiter

It is Sunday evening as we get our only aspect today, a pause and review of recent actions trine.  You might want to take some time to review what you did today, just to make sure that you haven’t missed anything.  With retrograde Jupiter involved, it is possible that you may have missed something significant, so check thoroughly.

 

11/17/25 – 12:56 am – Sun waning water trine retrograde Saturn

This is the first of four major and three quincunx aspects today.  I mean it is Monday so with that combination, this could be the Monday of Mondays for some.

This pause and plan your next actions trine is the once a year event for this pair.  It suggests the possibility that some critical element of a recent action may have been overlooked.  Pay close attention to any dreams, insights, “a-ha” moments, feelings, or other sensations that come to you as they may provide valuable clues to what you should do.

Less than three hours later (3:51 am), following a waxing cardinal crisis of action square to retrograde Jupiter, the slow Moon will go void-of-course for almost ten hours.  This crisis of action square sets the tone for this morning.  Focus on newer things that are still developing and avoid starting anything new until after the Moon enters Scorpio.

Twenty minutes later (4:11 am), the slow Moon will make a waning inconjunct/quincunx to retrograde Saturn.  Nothing like an early morning surprise to start your day.  If something wakes you early, be sure to note the time, what it was, and as much detail as you can.  There are two more quincunxes coming.  Sometimes, when they run in threes, they share a common theme so pay attention!

 

11/17/25 – 12:36 pm – retrograde Mercury waning sextile (OOBs) Pluto

This finish something sextile shifts the energy to older stuff that is ready or needs to be made ready to finish.  You may want to focus on that for the rest of the afternoon.  Following this, Mercury will go void-of-course for about 30 3/4 hours.  Combining Mercury retrograde and void-of-course can be thought of as like Mercury retrograde squared or on steroids.  Those who are most susceptible to Mercury retrograde may feel this the strongest.  Pay extra close attention to all communications, written, verbal, or posted.

Ten minutes later (12:46 pm),  the slow Moon will make a waning inconjunct/quincunx to retrograde Neptune.  Did you determine what the theme was for the earlier quincunx to Saturn?  If so, this may add to, clarify, or try to change your mind about what it might be.  Focus! 

Just ten minutes later (12:56 pm), the slow Moon will make waxing inconjunct/quincunx to retrograde Uranus.  What do you call an unexpected surprise?  Isn’t a surprise, by its very nature, unexpected?  It may be that what you think is the surprise turns out to not be the surprise as something totally unexpected comes up.  Take a “chill pill,” and keep your cool.

Forty-eight minutes later (1:44 pm), the Moon will enter Scorpio, the sign of Her fall.  Some may find it more difficult to control their emotions and feelings while some may find a new release for theirs.  Old memories, hurts, losses may come up in the next couple of days.  If so, accept them as being part of what makes you, you.  Describe what you are feeling.  Accept that they are as real and tangible as the clothes you wear.

 

11/17/25 – 5:05 pm – slow Moon waning fixed square (OOBs) Pluto

This crisis of consciousness square ends the day.  This suggests focusing or at least taking time to review and prepare for the actions you will take tomorrow to push things that much closer to being completed.  This energy will probably continue through most of tomorrow as well as there won’t be another aspect for almost 28 hours.

 

11/18/25 – 7:20 pm – retrograde Mercury returns to Scorpio

What did Mercury leave unfinished when they were in Scorpio earlier?  If old memories come up, embrace them.  Feel them.  You may even want to record them to help you continue to process them.

 

11/18/25 – 8:49 pm – slow Moon fixed conjunction Venus

This is the monthly meeting of the two Grand Ladies of the Zodiac.  What new thing do you want to start?  Their previous meeting was October 19, and before that September 19, and before that August 20, 2025.  Did you start something new around any of those dates?  Perhaps a new relationship or taking one to the next level.  Their conjunction can also be a good time to start on something you desire, whether it is creating or acquiring something.

 

11/19/25 – 3:45 am – retrograde Mercury fixed opposition retrograde Uranus

This is the first of six exact major aspects today, three of them by Mercury.  Uranus is sometimes called the higher vibration of Mercury, so when this pair get together, unexpected, exciting things may come up.  At this time of the day, it could be as a dream, a vision, a sound, or feeling.  However, it comes to you, be sure to note it, with as much detail as possible as its value should become apparent shortly.

Thirty-six minutes later (4:21 am), retrograde Mercury will make a waning water trine to retrograde Neptune for the second aspect of the day.  With retrograde Neptune involved, this pause and plan your next actions trine could find you trying to discern what is the truth and what isn’t.

 

11/19/25 – 3:24 pm – slow Moon goes Out-of-Bounds South

The Moon is at 24 Scorpio 33’, as She makes Her monthly sojourn lower, beyond the Sun’s southern boundary.  The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “An x-ray.”  The south represents the past which combined with Scorpio could bring up some truly unpleasant or regrettable memories.  The symbol of an x-ray offers an opportunity, like an x-ray, to “see inside” yourself and help you process any difficult memories.

 

11/19/25 – 4:23 pm – slow (OOBs) Moon waxing water trine retrograde Jupiter

This pause and review of any recent actions trine is the third aspect of the day.  Take time to review what you think you have accomplished today.  In doing so, did you discover that there were some things that you needed to adjust or fix?

Twenty-two minutes later (4:45 pm), the (OOBs) Moon will make a waning water trine to retrograde Saturn for the fourth aspect of the day.  This pause and plan your next action trine comes late.  Perhaps it is for your last action of the day or more likely a chance to consider your first action tomorrow.

 

11/19/25 – 10:47 pm – slow (OOBs) New Moon fixed conjunction Sun

This New Moon, the fifth aspect of the day, is at 28 Scorpio 12’.  The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “An Indian woman pleading to the chief for the lives of her children.”  What or who are you passionate about?  This symbol suggests a time to be an advocate for someone, even yourself, or others less fortunate than yourself, or for a cause such as endangered animals or the environment.  Look for a group or organization that speaks to your heart or soul.  Learn more about them.  Offer what you can, volunteer your time, donate things you no longer use or need.  You will feel better about yourself in doing so.

Twenty-eight minutes later (11:15 pm), the slow (OOBs) Moon will conjunct retrograde Mercury at 28 Scorpio 26’ for the sixth and final aspect of the day.  This could bring up old memories, perhaps from your childhood.  If so, does it bring up current issues with a family member?  This may be your opportunity to resolve them and put them to rest as it serves to amplify the energy of the New Moon.

 

11/20/25 – 1:23 am – retrograde Mercury fixed inferior conjunction Sun

This is the first of five exact major aspects today.  This conjunction occurs when retrograde Mercury passes between the Sun and the Earth, as the three are in perfect alignment.  This conjunction is at 28 Scorpio 18’, reemphasizing this degree, the Sabian Symbol, and the importance of yesterday’s New Moon.  It isn’t too late to take advantage of the New Moon conjunction energy to start something new.

Just one minute later (1:24 am), following a near simultaneous waning water trine to retrograde Neptune and a fixed opposition to retrograde Uranus, the second and third aspects of the day, the Moon will go void-of-course for just over one hour, entering Sagittarius at 2:26 am.  Three exact major aspects within one minute are rare.  If something wakes you, note the time, what it was, with as much detail as you can.  Note any dreams, insights, feelings, or other sensations you may have.  They are your subconscious and the “You-niverse” telling you something.

 

11/20/25 – 5:52 am – slow (OOBs) Moon waning sextile (OOBs) Pluto

This finish something sextile is the fourth aspect of the day.  Combined with the next aspect, occurring less than one hour apart, they set the tone for your day.

 

11/20/25 – 6:39 am – retrograde Uranus waxing sextile retrograde Neptune

This rare event is the fifth and final aspect of the day and the second of five waxing sextiles between this outer pair.  The first was August 28, 2025.  The next will be July 15, 2026, then January 15, 2027, and the last one for this 172 year cycle will be June 6, 2027.  The current Uranus Neptune cycle began with three conjunctions in Capricorn in 1993, specifically February 2, August 19, and October 24, 1993.  If you were alive in 1993, what memories of that year do you have?  Do any relate to a time around those dates?

 

Forecast for November 21-30

The 21st is all about the Sun as they will oppose Uranus, trine Neptune and then enter Sagittarius.  -On the 22nd, Mercury will trine Saturn and then trine Jupiter.  On the 23rd the Sun will sextile Pluto, then on the 24th Mercury will conjunct Venus, one of five aspects that day.  On the 26th Venus will trine Jupiter and then trine Saturn.  On the 27th there will be 5 major aspects plus Saturn will finally station direct.  On the 29th there will be 8 aspects plus Mercury will station direct.  On the 30th, Venus will trine Neptune, go void-of-course, and then enter Sagittarius to end the month on an optimistic note.

*************************************************

11/21/25 – 3:13 am – slow (OOBs) Moon mutable fire conjunction Mars

This conjunction is at 12 Sagittarius 16’.  The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “A widow’s past brought to light.”  This symbol suggests that something from the past, a memory, issue, problem, person, may come up presenting a situation that you now need to deal with.  It may involve you directly or indirectly through a family member or close friend.  If so, this becomes your “new thing” to work on from this conjunction.  With Mars involved, it may require physical or other types of energy on your part.  Be sure to note any dreams, insights, thoughts, feelings, or other sensations that come to you during the night or on waking.

 

11/21/25 – 4:25 am – Sun fixed opposition retrograde Uranus

You might say this is a “sunny” day as the Sun carries the rest of the day.  What is your Sun sign?  Whichever sign it may be, it may add its influence to your day. 

This opposition from the Sun in intense fixed water Scorpio to retrograde Uranus in fixed earth Taurus could present a major challenge between two very stubborn forces creating an odd sense of imbalance.  If something wakes you early, note the time and what it was with as much detail as you can.  If this is around your normal wakeup time, note what your first thought or sensation is.  Did you see, hear, sense, or feel something?  If so, note what it was with as much detail as you can.  Somewhere in all of this, you may find the answers you seek to reestablish balance in your life.

 

11/21/25 – 5:05 am – Sun waning water trine retrograde Neptune

This pause and consider your next action trine should bring your focus to older work in progress for this Friday.  With a holiday next week, there are only four “normal” workdays left in the month to get your stuff finished so you better have a good plan.

Oh, and by the way, after this, the Sun goes void-of-course for 12 1/2 hours, until entering optimistic, philosophical Sagittarius.  With the Sun void-of-course, focus on older or other work in progress that needs to be completed by the end of the month or sooner.  Don’t start any new self-help, diet, or workout routine during this time.

 

11/21/25 – 5:36 pm – Sun enters Sagittarius

For some, the evening may bring on a feeling of optimism, for others it may take longer, if at all.  As the Sun transits Sagittarius this could be an opportune time to consider expanding your mind and horizons.  Learn about a different country, culture, or other areas of interest.  Consider continuing your studies or restarting a hobby that used to make you feel good.

 

11/22/25 – 5:13 am – slow (OOBs) Moon waning mutable square retrograde Saturn

This is the first of four major and two quincunx aspects today, four by the Moon and two by retrograde Mercury.  Some may feel as if they have lost or have less control over their day and life than usual.

This crisis of consciousness, consolidating square sets the tone for your morning.  Are you prepared for next week?  It is Saturday and a good day to finish any preparations that you need to make.  Use your time wisely.

 

About a 1/2 hour earlier (4:46 am), the Moon made a waxing inconjunct/quincunx to retrograde Jupiter.  Did something surprise you, wake you early?  Was it a dream, a sound, a sudden “a-ha.”  If so, be sure to note the time and as much information about it as possible as it may provide insights into your day.

 

11/22/25 – 10:45 am – retrograde Mercury waning water trine retrograde Saturn

This is their third of four pause and plan your next action trines and could bring up some old unresolved issues, missed steps, or changes that need to be made.  Their cycle started with their conjunction February 25.  Their first waning trine was June 27, and their second was October 25.  Choose your actions and your words very carefully.  Their fourth and final waning trine will be December 7, the 84th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.  Is there something, a theme in your life that connects those dates?

Just under three hours later (1:39 pm), the Moon will make a waning inconjunct/ quincunx to retrograde Uranus.  How many surprises can you handle on a Saturday?  With retrograde Uranus involved it just might be the “repeat” of a surprise that you missed earlier.

 

11/22/25 – 1:48 pm – slow (OOBs) Moon goes Void-of-Course

Following a waning mutable crisis of consciousness square to retrograde Neptune, the Moon goes void-of-course for just over one hour, entering Capricorn at 2:53 pm.  This is the consolidate, release, let go of, set aside something for a later date or time square.  Do you have a home project that you have been ignoring that you need to get back to?  If so, now may be the time to get back to it.

 

11/22/25 – 3:37 pm – retrograde Mercury waxing water trine retrograde Jupiter

This pause and review of any recent actions trine would generally shift emphasis from older work in progress to newer work.  Today, if you have been working on older work getting it ready to complete, this trine may be about those actions, or any actions you’ve taken today.  Take time to review what you have done today.  Is there anything that you need to change?  Best to do it now and not put it off.

 

11/22/25 – 5:46 pm – Pluto returns In Bounds

Pluto crosses 1 Aquarius 45’ for the fifth and final time as He returns in-bounds until August 11, 2026, less than four months before the 2026 midterm elections.  Perhaps things will settle down or perhaps we will receive clues as to what the long term aspects of Pluto out-of-bounds south may be about.

 

11/23/25 – 11:20 am – Sun waning sextile Pluto

It is Sunday, and this finish something sextile is the only aspect today.  This suggests that there may be something personal that you can, and perhaps should, complete today.  This is also the opportunity to begin making plans for what new thing you want to start at their annual conjunction in about two months.

 

11/24/25 – 11:24 am – slow (OOBs) Moon waxing sextile Venus

This is the first of five exact major aspects today, four of them by the Moon.  Those more sensitive to the Moon may feel the pull and push of the changing energies more strongly than others. 

This is the develop, pause and plan your next action sextile as it precedes the crisis of action square in the normal sequence.  This suggests that you may want to take time to focus on newer work, to make sure that nothing important gets overlooked before the holiday. 

Just over one hour later (12:28 pm), for the second aspect of the day, the Moon will make another waxing sextile, this time to retrograde Mercury.  Keep on keeping on with what you are doing, for now.  A change is coming.

 

11/24/25 – 4:12 pm – slow (OOBs) Moon cardinal opposition retrograde Jupiter

With five of eight planets retrograde, and this combination in action oriented cardinal signs, identifying any imbalances and fixing them may be more difficult than usual.  This third aspect of the day is the first of four consecutive oppositions between them while Jupiter is retrograde.  This could indicate that some important project that you are working on could encounter delays, setbacks, or rescheduling.  Or it may be that some recognition or bonus that you have been “promised,” or are expecting, may be delayed and/or less than you expect.

 

Just 36 minutes later (4:48 pm), the still slow (OOBs) Moon will make a waning closing sextile to retrograde Saturn for the fourth aspect of the day.  This is the finish something sextile.  What kind of day have you had?  Perhaps finishing something at this time is just what you need to do.  You will feel better if you do.

 

11/24/25 – 5:52 pm – retrograde Mercury fixed water conjunction (opposition) Venus

This, their first of three conjunctions during this cycle, and the fifth and final aspect of the day is at 22 Scorpio 45’.  The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “A bunny metamorphosed into a fairy.”

This appears to be a conjunction from our perspective as they both line up with the background stars.  With Mercury retrograde and passing between the Earth and Sun and Venus direct and passing on the far side of the Sun, this has all the markings of an opposition.  As a conjunction we look to the Sabian Symbol for guidance on what new thing to start.  This symbol shows growth, movement, and a possible transformative experience.  If you have been thinking about seeking a higher or greater purpose in your life, now would be a good time to start.

 

11/25/25 – 12:52 am – slow (OOBs) Moon waning earth trine retrograde Uranus

There are four major aspects today, the first two before most people will start their day, the third for a wakeup call and the fourth just in time for morning coffee break.  It is almost as if the planets want to get an early start on the holiday.

 

This pause and plan your next action trine may appear as a dream, a vision, a sudden sense of knowing.  Whatever happens or comes to you during the night, note times, what it was, and as much detail as possible.  It is Tuesday, and with the holiday, time is quickly running out to get things finished.  Plan your work carefully.  Be meticulous.  Be creative.  Be bold!

Just 18 minutes later (1:10 am), following a waning sextile to retrograde Neptune, the Moon will go void-of-course for just over one hour, entering Aquarius at 2: 16 am.  This is the finish something sextile.  Note any dreams, messages, feelings, or other sensations that Neptune may offer as His guidance to what and how to get stuff finished. 

About one hour later (3:19 am), as She crosses 0 Aquarius 33’, the Moon will return back into the bounds of the Sun.  For some the day may feel different, more normal as they get started.

 

11/25/25 – 5:45 am – accelerating Moon fixed air conjunction Pluto

Let this conjunction be your wakeup call.  What new thing have you planned to start now?  With Pluto involved, something personal, meaningful to you would be good.

 

11/25/25 – 9:28 am – Moon waxing sextile Sun

This is the pause, review, then plan your next action sextile.  Normally this would relate to newer work; however, this late in the month it may be about making sure that you don’t have any new work that needs to be completed by the end of the month.

 

11/26/25 – 8:31 am – Venus waxing water trine retrograde Jupiter

This pause and review of any recent actions trine may be just the thing to help you make sure that you haven’t forgotten anything for tomorrow or Thanksgiving Day, if you celebrate it.  Take time to make sure you haven’t missed any steps with what you are working on or have completed recently.  You are running out of time to “fix” things, so focus and make sure you do it right the first time.

Fifty minutes later (9:21 am), the Moon will make a waxing sextile to Mars.  This is the review and then plan your next action sextile.  With Mars involved, one may act impulsively.  There is an old expression, “haste makes waste.”  Think before acting or you may have to do it over.  It is better to take your time and do it right the first time, than to have to do it over.

 

11/26/25 – 3:48 pm – Venus waning water trine retrograde Saturn

In the waning, consolidating, completing phase of a cycle, this aspect suggests that it is time to pause and plan your next action.  With retrograde Saturn involved you may want to consider your past successes and failures to help you decide your best course of action.

 

11/26/25 – 7:12 pm – accelerating Moon waxing fixed square retrograde Mercury

This crisis of action square may relate to something you need to do tonight or for tomorrow, Thanksgiving Day in America.  With Mercury retrograde it may be a sudden memory of something you said you would do but forgot to.  Do it now or write yourself a note so that you won’t forget it again.

 

11/27/25 – 3:32 am – average Moon waxing fixed square Venus

This early morning crisis of action square may wake you with a sudden realization of something else you forgot or need to do.  If you can’t do it now, put it at the top of your “to-do” list for when your day starts.

 

Almost two hours earlier (1:36 am), the Moon made a waning inconjunct/ quincunx to retrograde Jupiter.  Did you have a dream, or did something wake you in the night?  If so, be sure to note what it was and as much detail as you can remember.  There may be useful information there for you.

 

11/27/25 – 9:53 am – average Moon goes Void-of-Course

Following a waning fixed crisis of consciousness square to retrograde Uranus, the Moon goes void-of-course for 1 1/2 hours, until entering Pisces at 11:24 am.  This is the consolidate, trim down, and get things ready to be completed square.

 

11/27/25 – 1:49 pm – Mars goes Out-of-Bounds South

As Mars enters 17 Sagittarius, He will once more venture beyond the lower or southern boundary of the Sun.  When He does so, He may bring up bad memories, times when you made mistakes, or when you felt like you may have failed.  If you think about them, remember, you survived them and they helped make you who you are today.  Besides, you have many more positive past successes than “failures.”

 

11/27/25 – 7:52 pm – Saturn stations Direct

Saturn will appear to pause at 25 Pisces 09’, for the next several days before He appears to be moving forward.  Saturn will end up spending 59 days at 25 Pisces before He will return to 26 Pisces.  Now He returns to His pursuit of Neptune.  There are now four planets retrograde.  Obstacles, delays, set-backs will continue.

 

11/27/25 – 10:59 pm – average Moon waxing mutable square Sun

This crisis of action square relates back to the Scorpio New Moon of the 19th.  Did you start something new around that date?  If so, how is it developing?  It is late, but you might want to take some time to consider what your next action should be to keep it moving forward.

 

11/28/25 – 7:58 pm – accelerating Moon waxing mutable square (OOBs) Mars

This crisis of action square is the only exact aspect today.  Do you have anything that needs to be completed this month?  If so, you are almost out of time.  What can you do to get this stuff completed?

 

11/29/25 – 12:54 am – accelerating Moon waxing water trine retrograde Mercury

This is the first of eight exact major aspects today, seven of them by the Moon.  There will be three waxing, two waning, two conjunctions, and one opposition aspects, so be flexible as the energies ebb, flow, and shift throughout the day.  With seven aspects by the inconstant emotional Moon, this could be an emotional roller coaster day for some, some may feel a high, while others may feel a low.  Note any dreams, insights, feelings, or other sensations you may have.  If your day starts early, you may want to review any recent actions you have taken, such as what you did yesterday.  Check carefully as you may need to change some things.

 

11/29/25 – 7:45 am – accelerating Moon waning water trine retrograde Jupiter

This pause and plan your next action trine is the second aspect today.  Shift your attention to older work that needs to be finished.  What can you do to get it completed?

 

11/29/25 – 8:42 am – accelerating Moon mutable water conjunction stationary Saturn

This is the third aspect today and marks the beginning of a new Moon Saturn cycle.  This is the beginning of a new Moon Saturn cycle.  What new thing do you want to start today?  With Saturn involved, be sure to follow any rules, don’t take any shortcuts, skip any steps, and recheck your work regularly.

 

11/29/25 – 9:38 am – Mercury stations Direct

Mercury is at 20 Scorpio 42’ as they appear to pause as if trying to decide which way to go.  The Sabian Symbol for this degree is “A soldier derelict in his duty.”  The unspoken implication here is that the soldier is following his conscience as he believes it is an illegal order.  Is your conscience clear?  Have you compromised your beliefs or code recently?  If so, this may be your chance to make it right.  There are now three big planets, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune retrograde.

 

11/29/25 – 3:13 pm – accelerating Moon waxing water trine Venus

This pause and review of any recent actions trine is the fourth aspect today.  Check your work from today, yesterday, even the past week if you can.  Better to “fix” it now than later when it may take more time and be more “painful.”

 

Just twenty minutes later (3:33 pm), the Moon will make a waning finish something sextile to retrograde Uranus for the fifth aspect today.  Be creative.  Trust your unique talents to find the best way to finish things.

 

11/29/25 – 4:05 pm – accelerating Moon goes Void-of-Course

Following a mutable water conjunction with retrograde Neptune, the sixth aspect today, the Moon goes void-of-course for just over one hour, entering Aries at 5:07 pm.  Avoid starting anything new until then.  If there is something new that you want to start, perhaps a “dream project,” get started before the conjunction or wait until after the Moon is in Aries.

 

11/29/25 – 6:48 pm – Venus fixed opposition retrograde Uranus

This is the seventh aspect today.  Finding a balance at this time may be challenging as fixed signs can have a stubborn energy.  Retrograde Uranus suggests that you may want to reflect back on how you successfully handled similar situations in the past.  Trust Venus to help you select your best option.

 

11/29/25 – 8:22 pm – accelerating Moon waxing sextile Pluto

This opening sextile is the eighth and final aspect today.  Did you start something new with either conjunction?  If so, you may want to recheck it now to make sure that you haven’t left anything undone.

 

11/30/25 – 12:48 am – Venus waning water trine retrograde Neptune

Following this pause and plan your next action trine, Venus will go void-of-course for about 11  hours, until entering Sagittarius at 12:14 pm today.  Note any dreams, insights, feelings, or other sensations.  They may be useful later.  While Venus is void-of-course, don’t start a new relationship, don’t end or take an existing one to the next level, and avoid making any expensive, long term purchases, or contractual commitments.

 

11/30/25 – 8:00 am – fast Moon waxing water trine Sun

This is the pause and review of any recent actions trine.  Are your actions developing as you expected?  Do you need to change anything that you have done?  If so, and you can, do it now.

 

11/30/25 – 12:14 pm – Venus enters Sagittarius

Now in optimistic mutable fire, many may also feel as if things are lighter, that there is reason to hope and look forward to the future.  Some may find themselves seeking more adventure or freedom in their life.  Perhaps exploring an interest that they have been thinking about such as higher education, hobby, or a stimulating relationship.

    I’m sorry I’m new to reading your column. I love the exact times but are you referring to PST or GMT?

  3. Jim Sher says:

    Yes, Katerina, Venus did enter Aquarius on Monday, January 2nd at 6:09pm PST.

    Hi Jim, you mention Venus in Capricorn with the Cancer moon today. I have read other astrological sources which mention that Venus is now in Aquarius since January 2nd. I would appreciate you clearing up my current confusion regarding the actual Venus placement now. Thanking you in advance, Katerina Rellos

    Re: your comment on “like kidney stones”, unfortunately not true. My father’s stones were subjected to lithotripsy back in the late 1990s. Maximum 3 treatments were permitted. His stones stood their ground. At least he was not in discomfort.
    I enjoyed this reading otherwise.

    It’s been a powerful Super Moon (March 9th) so far…also interesting it is so near Venus conjunct Uranus. It feels like really big things are happening on every front.

    Here are the basic astrological details of His Royal Highness, Prince of Cambridge. Weight 8 lbs. 6 oz., according to news reports, the heaviest future King by birth weight in 100 years of more. Correct birth time is July 22, 2013, 4:24 pm, London, England.

    A true “cusper” with Sun 29 Cancer 58. Moon 28 Capricorn 17, which means that HRH was born less than 3 hours before the full Moon at 0 Aquarius. Birth ascendant is 27 Scorpio 10 and his birth M/C is 20 Virgo 36. He was born with 7 of the 10 primary points in Cardinal signs and 6 of them in water signs. He has a Grand Water Trine of Mars 6 Cancer and Jupiter 5 Cancer trining Saturn 5 Scorpio and trining Neptune 5 Pisces. He also has a Cardinal T-square with Mercury 13 Cancer opposing Pluto 9 Capricorn and both squaring Uranus 12 Aries. He has none of the 10 primary points in an Air sign and 3 of them are retrograde. 3 retrogrades is the second most common number, 2 being the most common. Born with Mars out-of-bounds north might he be a rather precocious child, to say the least.

    What a time to be born for the new prince-princess in England!
    Leo sun, Cancer planets: care for the family = the Kingdom, Aquarius Moon- we need open minds in the future!

    Hey Jim,
    Source: Astronomical Phenomena For the Year 2013, prepared by US Naval Observatory and Her Majesty’s Nautical Almanac which defines lunar eclipse time as Moon reaching centermost point of its journey thorough the shadow cast by the earth, and solar eclipses timed for maximum obscuration — typically different from time of simple conjunction. However, I note the Rosicrucian Ephemeris, citing JPL and the US Naval Observatory call it at 5:21. I’m betting there’s yet another computation out there.

  12. Jim Schultz says:

    Hi Dane, thank you for your comment. Not sure what your source for the eclipse time is. I use Solar Fire 8 for the dates and times I post. The time is based on the exact conjunction of the Sun and Moon which is 5:28 pm PDT. The NASA eclipse site shows a time of 5:26 pm PDT.

  13. dane_sullivan@verizon.net' Dane Sullivan says:

    Probably just an editorial slip, but believe the May 9 eclipse doesn’t happen until 5:55 at 19 Taurus 33. Enjoy your observations!

    “01/18/13 – 12:56 am – Mercury conjunct Sun 28 Aquarius 26”
    Sun still in Capricorn

    Oh boy! I am not an astrology student, however, I do enjoy reading your article every week. I have picked up the tiniest sliver of what is being discussed and from what I am able to glean, July sounds like it has the potential to be rather challenging. As a Taurus, I was happy to have read about the Mercury retrograde before it happens! I will be carefully watching my “p’s & q’s ” throughout the month and refer back to the entirety of the article – changes are a-comin’ for sure.
    Thanks for your work!
