November 2026 Astrology Calendar: Every Transit, Date and Time

November 2026 opens with two planets still moving backwards and closes with the sky almost fully cleared for forward motion. Mercury and Venus both station direct in the middle of the month, Mars and Jupiter meet in Leo, and the Sun moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius. All times below are UTC, calculated with the Swiss Ephemeris; the table above converts them to your local time.

The big picture for November 2026

The first half of the month still carries the review mood of late October. Mercury has been retrograde in Scorpio since October 24 and Venus retrograde since October 3, now back in Libra. Plans, money conversations and relationship terms that stalled in October are still being reworked during the first two weeks.

The turning point is November 13–14. Once both planets are direct, the month changes gear. Mars is in the last degrees of Leo and catches Jupiter on November 16, which adds confidence, appetite for risk and a strong push to act. The Sun squares both of them on November 18–19, a reminder that enthusiasm still has to fit real limits.

The final week belongs to Sagittarius: the Sun changes sign on November 22, Mars moves into practical Virgo on November 25, and Uranus completes its exact trine to Pluto on November 29.

Week by week

November 1–8: still in review

Mercury and Venus are both retrograde. The Sun meets Mercury on November 4 at 12°10′ Scorpio; this inferior conjunction is the midpoint of the Mercury retrograde, when missing information often surfaces. The same day Venus, still retrograde, sextiles Jupiter: a good window to repair a relationship or revisit a creative project rather than start a new one. Mars crosses 20°55′ Leo around November 5–6, entering the shadow of the Mars retrograde that begins in January 2027.

November 9–15: New Moon and the double station

The New Moon on November 9 at 07:02 UTC falls at 16°53′ Scorpio. It suits intentions about trust, shared resources, debts, therapy and anything that needs real commitment. Venus sextiles Mars on November 10, which softens conflicts between what you want and what you are willing to do.

Mercury stations direct on November 13 at 15:54 UTC at 5°02′ Scorpio, and Venus follows on November 14 at 00:28 UTC at 22°51′ Libra. Stations are slow, so the days around them can feel stuck rather than released. Let the decision settle for a day or two before you sign or announce.

November 16–22: Mars meets Jupiter

Mars conjoins Jupiter on November 16 at 06:24 UTC at 25°53′ Leo. This is the boldest aspect of the month: good for launches, public visibility, sport, leadership and generous gestures, less good for overcommitting. The Sun in Scorpio squares Jupiter on November 18 and Mars on November 19, so the same energy can turn into overconfidence or a clash of egos. Check budgets and timelines before you promise.

On November 22 at 07:23 UTC the Sun enters Sagittarius and Sagittarius season begins.

November 23–30: Full Moon in Gemini and Uranus trine Pluto

The Sun trines Neptune on November 24, and the Full Moon follows that day at 14:53 UTC at 2°20′ Gemini. It lights up communication, contracts, siblings, short trips and learning. Because Mercury has just turned direct, it is a natural moment to finalise paperwork that was revised during the retrograde.

November 25 is busy: the Sun sextiles Pluto, opposes Uranus, and Mars enters Virgo at 23:37 UTC. Expect quick changes of plan and a shift from big gestures to practical execution. Venus makes its second sextile to Jupiter on November 28, now moving direct, repeating the theme of the November 4 aspect with more momentum.

On November 29 at 11:23 UTC Uranus, retrograde in Gemini, makes an exact trine to Pluto in Aquarius at 3°31′. This is a generational aspect that works over months: technology, information networks and collective power structures shift in the background. The month ends with the Sun trine Saturn on November 30, a steady close that rewards practical commitments.

How to use the November calendar

1. Hold launches until after November 14. Use November 1–12 to finish edits and close loops from October.
2. Use the Scorpio New Moon for commitments that need depth, such as a financial plan, a joint project or a difficult conversation you have been postponing.
3. Channel November 16 into one visible action, not five new promises. The squares on November 18–19 show where you overreached.
4. Sign and finalise around the Gemini Full Moon, once Mercury is moving forward again and the facts are on the table.
5. Watch the slow shift. Uranus trine Pluto will not show up as a single event; notice which long-term changes in your work, tools or community feel unstoppable this season.
