Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of November in a playful and creative part of your chart before returning to your busy work sector and as there is often an overlap, this was always going to be a month when a balance between work and play will need to be watched. However, what you don't usually have is a total overlap, when there isn't a moment where there are no planets in either, calling on a need for balance from the start. While the Sun won't leave a playful and creative part of your chart and return to your work sector until 22nd November, the month begins with Mercury and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment already here.
They will be joined on 5th November by Mars, with his first visit to your work sector in two years kicking off what a likely to be some of the busiest six weeks of the year, whether at work or with whatever it is that keeps you busy and occupies your time. While Mercury's direct turn here on 10th November will attempt the keep the brakes on and until retrograding back out on 19th November might be partially successful, all bets will be off once he leaves. Meanwhile, having Saturn and Neptune back in an adventurous part of your chart is helping, as will Venus' return to a playful and creative part of your chart on 7th November, where she will spend the rest of the month.
Until returning, Venus will spend the first week of November not only in your home and family sector, where she will be working to make home where your heart is, but she will spend her final days clashed with the three planets in your career sector, bringing some familiar and timely work/life balance reminders. A powerful month on the job and career fronts is being matched by planets that are just as focused on powering up the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence. Now more than ever, it is all about having the right balance and especially with both sides of life's fence having so much to offer this month.

While the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of November in your romantic sector and the solar spotlight is always on matters of the heart at this time of year, to a degree this is being overshadowed by Venus, Mercury and Mars, who are making this anything but an ordinary month for all things romantic. Just having had Pluto leave your relationship sector in November 2024 means that for the first time in 16 years, the Sun and the planets moving through your romantic sector don't have to compete and instead, Saturn and Neptune have retrograded back into an adventurous part of your chart to mark the occasion.
Both had left earlier in the year and will leave again in the New Year, but have retrograded back in to greet the planets as they return to your romantic sector. By the time you move into the new month Mercury, who left your romantic sector at the end of last month but will retrograde back on 19th November for a do over, has already formed a friendly aspect to both, Mars has connected with Saturn and will form a friendly aspect to Neptune just before leaving your romantic sector on 5th November. As the planets of passion and dreams come together, so too will a mix of nostalgia, romance, passion and adventure that will make Mars' final days some of the best.
It is two days later that Venus, the planet of love will return and as the last planet to return, until leaving on 1st December, she will be working to make these some of the most romantically charged weeks of the year, weeks that come with serious support from the start. Mercury's return on 19th November means that he will not only be back in time for the Moon's return from 18th November to 20th November and for the New Moon just before it leaves, but will keep the romantic flame burning well into next month. Meanwhile, until the Sun, Venus and Mars return to your relationship sector next month, the Moon's return from 23rd November to 25th November will offer a chance to check in and become more emotionally engaged and aware.
