Astrology Transits November 2025 – Transformation with Love

Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don’t really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It’s just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy. ─ Pema Chodron, When Things Fall Apart.

November begins with the emphasis in the sign of Scorpio. We are asked to wade through the deep, dense, emotional, mysterious waters of Scorpio. The shift from the polite, balanced, nice, more superficial Libran energy into the darker sojourn into our shadow side can be upsetting and scary at first. However, it is part of our life journey. As the Pema Chodron quote above states, the healing comes from letting things come together and also letting them fall part again. Scorpio is the sign of transformation ─ moving from a stagnant position to a whole new realm of being.

One of the reasons I love astrology is that it helps us see that nothing lasts forever. Even when we are going through really rough times, we can look ahead and see when things will shift towards an easier, more joyful time. I remember many years ago when Pluto transited my Sun. Pluto transiting your Sun, Moon or ascendant is a time of deep transformation. Necessary, but usually not fun. In the depths of despair, I looked ahead and saw that Pluto would be transiting my Sun for around two years. Two years seems like a really long time. However, it gave me hope, because I knew that I could stand it for two years by getting through one day at a time. Then, like clockwork, everything began to ease and hope and optimism returned. My life was better than ever and has remained so through the ongoing ups and owns that is called “life.”

The Sun is in Pluto’s realm (Scorpio) from October 23 through November 22, along with Venus after November 7, and also Mercury as it retrogrades back into Scorpio on November 18. Use this Scorpio energy for your personal Hero’s Journey. The alchemical Scorpio energy will assist in exposing unhelpful attitudes and self-destructive behavior. It excels in bringing things to light so they can be transmuted into a more light-filled way of being.

November 2-3: Sun at 10 Degrees Scorpio Sesiquiquadrate Saturn at 25 Degrees Pisces. Venus Opposition Chiron at 24 Degrees Libra/Aries. Venus Square Jupiter at 25 Degrees Libra/Cancer. Venus Quincunx Saturn at 25 Degrees Libra/Pisces. Mars Trine Neptune at 29 Degrees Scorpio/Pisces. There is a lot going on in the sky the first week in November. The Sun in a harsh aspect to Saturn reminds us to honor our responsibilities. Then, Venus’ connection to Chiron, Jupiter and Saturn urges us to move beyond old issues (Chiron), but to do so in a serious (Saturn), yet optimistic way (Jupiter). It is an excellent time to make those tough decisions that you have been putting off.

November 4: Mars Enters Sagittarius and Opposes Uranus at 0 Degrees Sagittarius/Gemini. Mars in Sagittarius brings out your competitive warrior spirit. Mars opposition Uranus sparks an active, rebellious, adventuresome dynamic. Mars opposition Uranus brings energy and inspiration, but also impulsiveness. Be careful not to scatter your energy and to think before you act.

November 5-6: Full Moon at 12 Degrees Taurus. 

Sun at 14 Scorpio Sesiquiquadrate Neptune at 29 Degrees Pisces.

Venus Quincunx Neptune at 29 Degrees Libra/Pisces.

Venus enters Scorpio at 6:39 PM EST

Venus Quincunx Uranus at 0 Degrees Scorpio/Gemini. 

This Full Moon in Taurus has a distinct Venusian flavor, because the sign of Taurus is ruled by Venus. Venus in the Full Moon chart is quincunx Neptune, bringing a nebulous, spiritual quality to the practical Taurus Full Moon. Use this energy to re-evaluate your finances. Ask yourself: Is my financial life in tune with my spiritual aspirations and goals? Taurus is a Venus-ruled sign that puts the spotlight on relationships, security, finances and nature. Every Full Moon is a time of letting go of the mental, emotional and physical clutter of the previous 30 days. Use this time to evaluate your financial holdings, your value system, and your relationship to Mother Nature.

November 7: Venus Square Pluto at 1 Degree Scorpio/Aquarius. Uranus Retrogrades Back into Taurus. Your interactions with others may feel more intense when Venus is square Pluto. You may also become more aware of the imperfections of those around you. Use this time to change what can be changed and to accept the rest. However, major relationship issues will need to be addressed when the planet of love (Venus) meets the planet of transformation (Pluto).

November 9: Mercury Retrograde at 6 Degrees Sagiottarius. Mercury turns retrograde in Sagittarius. It will move back into Scorpio on November 19 and finally turns direct on November 29 at 20 degrees Scorpio.

November 11: Jupiter Retrograde at 25 Degrees Cancer. Jupiter retrograde in Cancer gives you a chance to re-evaluate your familty connections and to re-assess how you nurture others and how you wish to be nurtured. You might want to look at any imbalances in how your family perceives you versus your true self. Jupiter here asks the question: “How have I underestimated myself?” Jupiter resumes forward motion on March 12, 2026,

November 17: Grand Trine with Sun at 25 Degrees Scorpio Trine Jupiter at 25 Degrees Cancer and Saturn at 25 Degrees Pisces. You should be able to accomplish a lot under this Grand Trine of Sun, Jupiter and Saturn. The Sun furnishes energy, Jupiter brings optimism and Saturn brings responsibility and the desire to stick to the task until completed.

November 18: Mercury Enters Scorpio. Venus at 14 Degrees Scorpio Trine the North Nodes at 14 Degrees Pisces. Venus at 14 Degrees Scorpio Sesiquiquadrate Neptune at 29 Degrees Pisces. Mars at 10 Degrees Sagittarius Sesiquiquadrate Jupiter at 25 Degrees Cancer. Venus enters Scorpio and is busy, busy, busy. It’s a great time to re-evaluate your life direction when Venus is trine the North Node. Venus sesiquiquadrate Neptune invites you to light some candles and quiet the mind. The answers to your problems can be found within.

November 20: New Moon Conjunct Sun and Mercury at 28 Degrees Scorpio Opposing Uranus at 28 Degrees Taurus. It’s time to get real, to delve deeply into your own desires and to transform (Scorpio) those things that are no longer working. You may need to have that hard conversation with someone (Mercury conjunction) to clear the air and to then let go of old negative feelings and resentments. Uranus in opposition breaks chains. Ask yourself whether you want to make a choice or to let fate make the choice for you. This New Moon in Scorpio can be wonderfully liberating if handled wisely.

November 21: Sun Opposition Uranus at 29 Degrees Scorpio/Taurus. Sun Trine Neptune at 29 Degrees Scorpio/Pisces. The Sun opposition Uranus in the fixed signs of Scorpio and Taurus can stir up some chaos around you. Digging in your heels and refusing to change or compromise will only accelerate the disorder and confusion.

November 21: Sun Enters Sagittarius at 9:35 PM EST. Spirits are lifted and optimism returns when the Sun leaves the serious, transformative sign of Scorpio and enters Sagittarius. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and, thus, has an optimistic, curious, energetic vibe.

November 26: Grand Trine with Venus (and Mercury), Jupiter and Saturn. Venus at 24 Degrees Scorpio Trine Jupiter in Cancer and Trine Saturn in Pisces. Venus and Mercury conjunct and both trine Jupiter and trine Saturn are such a lovely combination just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday celebration. Venus, Mercury and Jupiter bring lots of positive (Jupiter) talk (Mercury) among those you love (Venus). Saturn brings the boundaries to keep you from over indulging or from going too far or too controversial in your conversations. Enjoy!

November 28: Saturn turns Direct at 25 Degrees Pisces. The pace will pick up once Saturn regains full forward motion, particularly around business and health matters. It also signals the need to take more responsibility (Saturn) regarding your spirituality and creative endeavor (Pisces). Saturn moving direct will make an important conjunction with Neptune on February 14, 2026.

November 29-30: Venus at 29 Degrees Scorpio Opposition Uranus at 29 Degrees Taurus (Retrograde) and Trine Neptune at 29 Degrees Pisces. 

Mercury Stations Direct at 20 Degrees Scorpio. 

Venus Enter Sagittarius on November 30. 

This time period begins with an unsettled, intense need to express rebellious (Uranus) feelings, along with a strong need to escape (Neptune). The somewhat crazy feeling should smooth out when Venus enters Sagittarius at the end of the month. It might be fun now to plan your next vacation since Sagittarius rule travel, mind expansion and adventurous trips.
