Scorpio
This is your month to shine dear scorpion, as a host of planets glide through your sign. The Sun joins Mercury and Saturn, and there’s a solar eclipse on the 3rd at 11 degrees Scorpio. If you were born around November 3, this will affect you most, although all scorpions will feel some effects. Note that eclipses can take up to 6 months to take effect. The eclipse is sextiling Mars in your 11th house of hopes and dreams, and your ruler, Pluto, in in your 3rd house of communication and contracts. It looks like you’ll be initiating a new venture that is very important to your identity, possibly a work project of sorts, and you may be signing a contract. Saturn in your sign will be conjunct this eclipse, bringing stability to whatever you begin, although it likely won’t be easy. Be careful not to initiate any ventures early in the month while Mercury is still retrograde. If you are signing a contract, wait until November 12th, a lucky day when the Sun in your sign will signal Jupiter in your 9th house of travel and publishing. Watch out for the 6th, when the Sun will conjunct Saturn in your sign and you may hear some jarring news. Additionally, Jupiter turns retrograde on the 7th. You may have to go over any publishing, writing, or broadcasting projects for revisions over the next few months. Venus spends the month in your house of communication and contracts, and you may find you suddenly have the gift of gab. Just watch out for the 15th, when Venus will conjunct your ruler, Pluto. This could be a great influence- Venus is a lucky, healing planet- but conjunctions can bring surprises, and this one is squaring Uranus in your 6th house of work. A full moon falls on the 17th in your partnership sign of Taurus. Jupiter in your 9th house of travel is nicely angled, so you should hear good news around this time. You might get engaged (on a trip perhaps?), or call things off, but trust that all will be for the best. 2 days later, Mars in your 11th house of friendships will sextile Jupiter in your 9th, and you may end up traveling with friends. Why not head to Vegas for a little pre-Thanksgiving jaunt? Next month will see you focusing on work and money, so go get your kicks in now!

Sagittarius
After a turbulent month that saw you focused on socializing and friendships, this month has you resting and recuperating. Hopefully you have a few days off over Thanksgiving to be low key and take some time for yourself. The Sun joins Mercury and Saturn in your 12th house of recuperation and closure. There’s a solar eclipse on the 3rd in this same sector, and it’s nicely angled to Mars in your house of career and Pluto in your house of income. Any Archers in a creative profession, or a medical or institutional field, should see profits coming in from any new venture. In general, ventures now will be behind closed doors. Don’t worry- your time to shine will come. Save any initiatives until after Mercury goes direct on the 11th. The 12th would be best, as the Sun on this day will trine Jupiter in your 8th house of other people’s money and you could come into some unexpected funds. Venus spends the month in your second house of income, which is even better news for you wallet! Watch out for news on the 15th, when Venus will conjunct Pluto in this sector. You could hear good news, but with Uranus squaring both planets, you might have a large expense related to a child or creative project. The full moon on the 17th falls in Taurus and your 6th house of work and health. Take your vitamins and eat your vegetables- this is the prime time of year to get sick, and we don’t want that! Jupiter will be nicely angled from your 8th house, so I suspect you will hear good news- perhaps a commission from a client will come in, or you’ll land a new job with a stellar bonus structure. Two days later, Mars- which has been revving up your career sector all month- will sextile Jupiter in your 8th- even better news for money and career! Alternatively, you might have a deep conversation with your spouse (if married) and be thankful that you’re closer than ever. What a great way to spend the holiday! Just watch out for the 25th, when the Sun- which will have moved into your sign- squares Neptune in your 4th house of home and you may have an argument with a family member. Silly Sagittarius- always remember, wine + politics + family members don’t mix! We all know you have big opinions, so maybe just pour yourself another glass and let the other person win this battle.

Capricorn
A lot of people tend to spend Thanksgiving with their families, but not all of us are lucky enough to have family nearby. What better alternative that to gather a bunch of friends together and hold a Friendsgiving? This month you’re in the perfect position for just that, as a host of planets, as well as a solar eclipse, are in your friendship sector. The eclipse takes place on the 3rd, and it’s nicely angled to Mars in your 9th house of travel and Pluto in your own sign. You might go on a trip with friends, launch a publishing or broadcasting project, decide to move abroad, or even begin your dream business. Because this eclipse is conjunct to Saturn, your ruler, whatever you launch should be blessed in legitimacy. What great news! If you do initiate something, wait until the 12th. Mercury will have gone direct the day before, and on this day the Sun will trine Jupiter in your 7th house of partnerships, suggesting that perhaps your love with join you on whatever adventure you begin! Venus spends the month in your sign, giving you charm in spades. Been thinking about chopping off your hair or updating your wardrobe? DO IT (just don’t forget to wait until after November 11th!). Keep your eyes open on the 15th, when Venus will conjunct Pluto in your sign. I think you will hear good news this day- possibly regarding a love interest or career opportunity- but Uranus in your 4th house of home will be squaring both planets, so you may have a few kinks to iron out. There’s a chance some bad news will come up, but I have faith that Venus will protect you. The full moon on the 17th falls in fellow earth sign Taurus and your 5th house of true love. You might just get married or engaged, or perhaps you find out you have a little one on the way! Jupiter in your 7th house of partnerships will be looking on lovingly, so it wouldn’t surprise me one bit. There’s always a chance you’ll break up, and if so, trust that it’s only because there’s someone out there who is better for you! This full moon is too beautifully angled for this not to be the case. On the 19th, Mars- which has been revving up your travel sector all month- sextiles Jupiter in your partnership house. If you do get engaged, I suspect it might happen on a trip- perhaps a Thanksgiving trip? With that eclipse earlier in the month lighting up your house of hopes and dreams, this is a definite possibility. House of hopes and dreams indeed!
