Astrological Forecast for November 2024

November starts off with Scorpio benefits as the new Moon on November 1^st is in Scorpio at nine degrees.

If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Scorpio, you want to start a new direction in life that transforms your inner and outer world.

You may have been renovating your life over the last two weeks and are now ready to start off November with less financial stress as you move into completing financial goals by the full Moon in Taurus on November 15^th.

Letting go of old things was the theme in the second half of October and depending on how much you were able to let go of will enable you to take advantage of the grand trine in water signs on this new Moon day.

Grand trines are the wind at your back. I call it divine grace. Things can just fall in your lap without any effort on your part. Those with Scorpio energies can visualize what they want and watch it materialize by the full Moon.

Scorpio, Cancer, and Pisces experience more ease and grace in this water Grand Trine so enjoy a more peaceful transition in your life in all areas.

If its financial issues, especially for Scorpio, you may find that a nice balance can come back into your life by the full Moon in Taurus on the 15^th.

What was a wake-up call in your personal financial life in the second half of October is now an opportunity in November, especially the first half, to bring balance to your debt and feel like you have some control and stability.

The T-square running in this new Moon chart is between Venus in Sagittarius, Jupiter in Gemini, and Saturn in Pisces. This combination can create tensions for these signs in the forms of communication, Gemini, romantic freedom, Sagittarius, and practical solutions instead of just dreams, Pisces, which allow more balance.

Look to your family and friends who are born under the sign of Virgo to fill in this stressful T-square for advice on how to keep your life moving in a more orderly and practical way. Virgo is also the healer and may offer some technique like Reiki or other spiritual healing abilities, so the T-square is cleared out and balanced.

It is All Satins Day on November 1^st. If you have a favorite saint or saints, it does not have to be a Roman Catholic Saint, then turn to them in prayer for yourself and others in the world who really need our prayers.

Mercury moves into the optimistic sign of Sagittarius on November 2^nd just after the new Moon in Scorpio. If you have the Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Sagittarius, you are shooting for the stars and thinking, Mercury, about your future.

Maybe you want to take another course of study to help sharpen your skills or gain more knowledge through long-distance travel.

However, if you plan on traveling do it in the first half of November as Mercury will station retrograde in Sagittarius on November 25^th. More on this towards the end of this column.

Daylight Savings is here again starting at 2AM, Sunday morning, November 3^rd. We gain one hour and hopefully get some extra sleep. We all wish they would end this adjustment of time as it is not healthy for the mind, body, and spirit.

Mars moves into the sign of Leo on November 3^rd and the sign of Leo gets an extra jolt of energy.

The sign of Leo is normally ruled by the Sun which provides physical vitality so they don’t need help from Mars, however, this increase of energy will last till December 6^th when Mars turns retrograde and puts some of the plans for Leo on hold.

Therefore, it would be an advantage to those born with the Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Leo to plan ahead so when your plans get slowed down from December 6, 2024, to beginning of May 2025, you are not caught off guard.

I will talk more about Mars turning retrograde in my December 2024 column.

Election Day is on Tuesday November 5^th. I have already cast my vote early and encourage everyone to vote for your favorite candidate. I have an extensive analysis of both Kamala Harris and former President Trump on my You Tube account in both Western and Vedic astrology. Go to (1) Louis Valentino - YouTube

Venus moves into the conservative sign of Capricorn on November 11^th and offers a sweet tone to an often emotionally detached sign.

If you have the Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Capricorn, you may come across more charming than normal from November 11^th till December 7^th. You can attract more beauty, abundance, and balance in all areas of your life.

Saturn stations direct in Pisces on the same day that the Moon is full in Taurus on November 15^th. The full Moon is at 24 degrees of Taurus (4:28PM EST).

Pisces may have needed more sleep since the beginning of July. Especially over the last month. I know I have since I am a Pisces and Saturn is stationing direct right on top of my Sun and Mercury casimi conjunction in Pisces at 12 degrees.

Saturn stationing direct will help the sign of Pisces feel like they have more energy and less depression. Saturn can add a heavy energy to whatever planet it touches and its deeper in retrograde motion.

This is good news for Pisces. If you have the Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Pisces you can look forward each day AFTER Saturn stations direct to feel like a weight has been lifted from you and get back to a balanced energy level and less depressive.

The full Moon in Taurus offers more stability after an exhaustive Presidential election cycle and hopefully we have a definitive answer to who is going to run American over the next four years.

This full Moon conjuncts Uranus which shows emotional instability but both planets trine Pluto offering a calming effect that allows the signs of Taurus and Capricorn to have deep feelings, Pluto, which are not always traditional, Capricorn, since Uranus is more about innovative ideas and the younger generation.

This all leads to Pluto moving into Aquarius on November 19^th and will not move back into Capricorn for another 248 years. Pluto in Aquarius is responsible for bringing a new Age of Aquarius into more focus. See my video on “Pluto in Aquarius” on my You Tube channel (1) Louis Valentino - YouTube

If you have the Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Aquarius, you are being more noticed for your role in transforming the world around you. Aquarius is a group/team player.

Pluto rules the underworld and we have seen everything from drug cartels, secret sex trafficking, celebrities that hid secrets for years of abuse including religious organizations, tunnels running underground in Gaza that have secretly hid terrorist, issues surrounding underground oil reserves, abortion, birth and death through wars and the Pluto list goes on and on.

Peace negotiations will start to move forward more with both Saturn and Pluto moving forward and this full Moon offers more talking, Jupiter in Gemini, about a better future, Mercury in Sagittarius that offer more compassion for humans who are starving and have been abused by war.

See my You Tube video on 2025, The minor Grand Trine for more details. (1) Louis Valentino - YouTube It will take till Pluto reaches three degrees for the intense purification going on to calm down and find balance. That won’t be till the end of 2026.

Until then, we can continue to project more light into the world and FIND THE TIME EACH DAY TO SIT QUIETLY to bring more balance to the collective consciousness of the world.

The sign of Taurus on this full Moon Day has a change of plans when it comes to financial empowerment, but the changes bring a positive outcome. Go with the flow as Wall Street may be going through changes from November 13^th till December 1^st.

The Sun moves into Sagittarius on November 21^st. Happy Birthday to Sagittarius.

Mercury stations retrograde in Sagittarius on November 25^th. Mercury will station direct on December 15^th.

If you have the Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Sagittarius, you are planning your future and how you want 2025 to look. Sagittarius is the sign that rules the future. They are forward looking, the arrow shooting into the sky.

This Mercury retrograde period can be spent planning and asking your internal dialogue about how you want to proceed forward. Look at the houses that are ruled by Sagittarius to get an idea of what issues you want to work on.

This is a time when students can buckle down and study most comfortably. Teachers may be hearing how students are enjoying their homework. They are able to do research on any topic with more ease and grace.

A T-square in this full Moon chart shows the mutable signs, again, getting most of the lessons and needing the sign of Virgo to add balance and practicality to their often larger than life dreams and ambitions.

Having said this, having only one T-square is healthy on a full Moon and the trine from the Moon to Pluto, along with Uranus close to the Moon, offers an exciting energy that is more forward thinking.

This is healthy for the signs of Taurus and Capricorn which can be a stick in the mud at times.

Wishing everyone a peaceful and joyful month of November. Happy Thanksgiving on November 28^th. Remember, Mercury is retrograde so try to not take family or friends comments to heart.
