Welcome to November 2024. This month is bookended by new moons. The first arrives in Scorpio and is ideal for switching up beauty routines or trying something different in bed. Divine Mercury shifts into Sagittarius, helping us share our feelings, even if we need to be careful with delivery. Mars also moves into fire sign Leo, which helps make this first weekend intense. Then, romantic Venus moves into Capricorn and gives us a chance to act in a more grounded manner. Saturn goes direct in Pisces, helping us all relax.
Back in 2008, Pluto moved into Capricorn. While it first moved into Aquarius earlier this year, it dipped back into Capricorn temporarily, giving us all a chance to say goodbye to an era. This month, it finally settles in Aquarius and will stay there for two decades. Wild Sagittarius season means travel, and holidays, and being able to assert yourself. Shortly after the sun enters Sag, Mercury goes retrgroade. This could mean travel delays, typos, and exes sliding into your DMs, but you can combat this stress by logging off social media. November comes to a close with another new moon. This one occurs in Sagittarius and wants to party.

November 2024 Horoscope Overview
Welcome to November, star signs. While during October, you had a chance to say goodbye to an era thanks to Pluto, this month sees the transformation planet finally settling into Aquarius, where it will stay for the next two decades.
There are also two new moons this month. Each moon phase has various associations and new moons are the time of beginnings. The first arrives in Scorpio on Friday, November 1. This date is a lovely excuse to switch up your beauty routine, perhaps trying skin care or eye makeup that's new to your beauty arsenal. You may also want to try something different in bed. The next day, on Saturday, November 2, the divine messenger Mercury moves into bold Sagittarius, helping us all share our feelings. Just be aware that this vibe can be a little intense, so think before you speak so you don't say something that you regret later. Adding to the need to think before you speak, the hot-headed planet Mars enters fellow fire sign Leo.
Over a week later, when romantic Venus moves into grounded earth sign Capricorn on Monday, November 11, love feels a little more stable, if analytical. However, if any heated words were exchanged earlier in this month, this shift gives you a chance to make up, talk it out, and recover. The next day, on Tuesday, November 12, the strict planet Saturn ends its retrograde and goes direct in Pisces. When it does, everyone is able to relax a little. When Saturn first went retrograde back in June, it asked us to reevaluate an area of our life (check your star sign for details). Now that it's direct, we can implement changes and unwind.
When Pluto settles into Aquarius, the new era is here.
Back in 2008, Pluto moved into Capricorn. It first moved into Aquarius earlier this year and then went retrograde in Capricorn as a chance for us to say goodbye to an era. However, when Pluto settles into Aquarius on Tuesday, November 19, the new era is officially here, as the planet will stay in the sign through 2043. Check your individual horoscopes to see what the next two decades hold for you.
The sun moves into Sagittarius, kicking off bold Sag season starting on Thursday, November 21. The next few weeks are all about travel and parties, and will be a nice change of pace after the intensity of Scorpio season. While some of you will have to travel to visit blood relatives, try to get some time in with your chosen family, too. Mercury begins one of its retrogrades on Monday, November 25. This could mean travel delays, communication mishaps, and the return of exes, but you can combat this stress by logging off social media.
Finally, November comes to a close with another new moon. This one occurs in Sagittarius on Saturday, November 30, and will leave many of you in the mood to party with friends after spending time with family for Thanksgiving. While it's a boisterous vibe, if you can, try to use this weekend to rest and decompress as much as possible. Read your sign's horoscope for a more in-depth reporting of what November means for you.
