Your November 2025 horoscope is here. A song rings in our ears: If you could turn back time… November astrology is taking us down a memory lane surrounded by funhouse mirrors, and we need to use any “second chances” wisely. Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius and Scorpio is the star of the show, officially running from November 9th to 29th. At the same time, some of the slower-moving planets like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are experiencing meaningful transitions that synchronize with Mercury's back-and-forth dance.
Simply put, this may be riskier than your usual Mercury retrograde. This feels more like a back to the future movie, a chance to “correct” the timeline you're in or fundamentally rewrite a script you've been running for years. If this is indeed the end of an era, what are some small changes you can make that will actually bind the big problems you've hitherto unsolved? Think of it as exiting your personal version groundhog day Because you know how to break the cycle.
Now, Mercury Retrograde is also known as a transit where “things go wrong” and “people can't hear each other for the first time.” For frequent fliers, this also tends to be a time of travel disruption and booking confusion. As Mercury begins to retrograde with Mars in Sagittarius, the likelihood of foot-and-mouth syndrome in the first week of November is as high as blowing through the exit you should be taking. During this time of the month, try to move slower and more consciously than you would like. Also, and this is important, try to keep your thinking flexible when you take other perspectives. People will want to stand their ground and be right, but the deeper aspect of medicine is that you don’t know what you don’t know yet.
On November 18th, Mercury returns to Scorpio. For the rest of the month, we'll probably be thinking less and thinking more. The second half of the month brings some big realizations – ones that could lead to a quantum leap in your perception and, yes, in your life's reality. Secrets may be revealed, mysteries revealed. If you're traveling, you'll probably want to learn about the little-known histories of the places you're visiting, and explore parts of cities that are conceptually or actually underground (think: catacombs, bomb shelters, speakeasies). What you learn on your journey may also provide you with the keys to unlocking psychological puzzles in your life.
