It’s Friday the 13th, the week’s finally winding down, and your phone lights up with a name you haven’t seen since the summer. You stare at it. Then the phone goes face down on the counter, until you pick it up again a minute later. Somewhere far above the rooftops, in the opening act of November 2026 astrology, two planets are doing exactly the same thing: after weeks of going backward, Mercury and Venus are turning around.
That little coincidence sets the tone for the whole month. October was the month of second thoughts, crossed wires and old flames flickering back to life. November is when things start moving again, and it saves its showstopper for last: a glowing Gemini supermoon, rising just in time for Thanksgiving week. Pour yourself something warm. Here’s what the month has in store.
Quick answer: November 2026 astrology has two big moments. On Friday, November 13, Mercury and Venus both end their retrogrades, so stalled plans and quiet relationships can start to move again. Then a Gemini supermoon rises on November 24, two days before Thanksgiving. The dates come from astronomy; the meanings are astrology, offered for fun and reflection.
Monday, November 9: a new moon in Scorpio
Friday, November 13: Mercury and Venus turn direct
Monday, November 16: Mars meets Jupiter in Leo
Sunday, November 22: Sagittarius season begins
Tuesday, November 24: a full supermoon in Gemini
Wednesday, November 25: Mars moves into Virgo
If you’re on the West Coast, one or two of these land the evening before. The sky doesn’t mind in the slightest, and neither should you.
If October felt slightly off, you weren’t imagining it. Mercury, the planet astrologers link with messages, plans and paperwork, spent the last week of the month in retrograde. Venus, the planet of love, pleasure and everything we treasure, had been retrograde since early October.
Nothing up there actually reverses, of course. As the encyclopedia entry on apparent retrograde motion explains, planets keep orbiting in the same direction; they only look as if they’re drifting backward because of how Earth and the other planet pass each other. Astrologers have long treated these stretches as a time for second thoughts, though, and October certainly delivered a few.
Maybe an ex liked a photo from three summers ago. Perhaps a group dinner was rescheduled four times and then quietly abandoned. Or you hit reply-all at exactly the wrong moment. Our guide to every Mercury retrograde of 2026 and the story of Venus retrograde in Scorpio tell the full saga. The good news? Happily, the sequel is much more cheerful.
The month really gets going on November 9 with a new moon in Scorpio. New moons are traditionally read as fresh starts (our guide to the moon’s phases explains why), and Scorpio is the sign of depth, secrets and things left unsaid.
You know the conversation. You’ve practiced it in the shower, in the car and, on one memorable occasion, out loud in the supermarket. This is a lovely moment to work out what you actually want to say. Just hold on to it for a few days. With Mercury still retrograde until the end of the week, a slow draft beats a hasty send.
Then comes the big one. On Friday, November 13, Mercury turns forward in the morning and Venus follows in the evening, which gives the whole day a rather satisfying shape.
Picture the morning: the parcel that’s been “out for delivery” since Halloween finally arrives, a colleague answers the email you sent three weeks ago, and the booking site stops crashing. By evening, the mood turns softer. That’s when the name lights up on your phone, or when you realize you’d quite like to send a message of your own.
Here’s the thing astrologers will tell you: there’s no prize for answering in the first five minutes. Read it, smile (or roll your eyes), make a cup of tea and sleep on it. If the feeling’s still there in the morning, it’s probably worth something. And if you’ve always had a soft spot for this date, we’ve made the case for why Friday the 13th can be a lucky day.
On November 16, Mars and Jupiter meet in Leo, and frankly, it’s the most glamorous get-together of the month. Mars brings the nerve, Jupiter brings the generosity, and Leo makes sure everyone’s watching.
This is the week to pitch the idea, take the solo at karaoke or finally wear the bold lipstick you bought in the spring. Just keep one eye on your shopping basket. Under this much cosmic confidence, a velvet blazer and two concert tickets can look like an absolute necessity at midnight. They might be! Give them a day, and see if you still think so over breakfast.
On November 22, the Sun moves into Sagittarius, the zodiac’s traveler and truth-teller. The mood turns restless, curious and a little more adventurous, which is handy, because half the country’s about to get on a plane or into a car.
Sagittarius is also famous for saying exactly what it thinks. That can be wonderfully refreshing at a dinner party. It can also explain why the family group chat goes suspiciously quiet.
On November 24, the full moon rises in Gemini, and it’s a supermoon. The Old Farmer’s Almanac calls it the Beaver Moon, after the time of year when beavers settle into their lodges for winter, and suggests looking up on the evenings of the 23rd and 24th for the best view.
Gemini rules talk, gossip and curiosity, and astrologers note that this full moon sits close to Uranus, the planet of surprises. Two days before Thanksgiving, that’s a recipe for at least one conversation that goes off script. Your cousin announces she’s moving to Lisbon. Your dad reveals a passion for sourdough. Someone finally explains what happened at last year’s dinner. Our advice? Ask one more question than usual, then really listen to the answer.
The day before Thanksgiving, on November 25, Mars slips into tidy, practical Virgo. It’s perfect energy for the grocery run, the guest room and the seating plan. It’s slightly less perfect when it starts offering notes on somebody else’s gravy, so keep the critiques for your own to-do list.
Bottom line: November starts with second thoughts and ends with full tables, bright skies and plenty to talk about.
Sometimes one of these moments lands right on top of a real decision: whether to answer that message, whether the new job is the right move, whether this is the relationship you want. It can help to say it out loud to someone outside the situation. An EasyPsychics advisor can talk it through with you by phone; check the current offer and rates before you book, and remember the choice is always yours.
Mercury turns direct on Friday, November 13. Some astrologers like to wait a few more days before signing anything big, simply because the planet moves very slowly at first.
Venus turns direct on the evening of November 13 in the US. In the UK and Europe, it’s already November 14 by then, so you may see both dates online.
Yes. The Old Farmer’s Almanac lists the November 24 full moon as a supermoon, also known as the Beaver Moon. The evenings of November 23 and 24 are the best times to look for it.
The Sun moves into Sagittarius on November 22 and stays there until the winter solstice on December 21.
Not according to the planets. The date’s spooky reputation is a superstition, and in astrology this particular Friday is when two retrogrades end. Plenty of people will call that lucky.
If you follow retrograde tradition, waiting a few days after November 13 is the classic advice for contracts and big purchases. For everything else, take the time a decision deserves, whatever the date.
Not at all. These dates are for everyone. A birth chart can show which parts of your life a transit touches personally, but it’s a lovely extra rather than a requirement.
