As much as this month is set to take an exciting turn and especially on the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence, there are also some surprise developments professionally. That they are all happening at the same time makes the work/life balance reminders that a Full Moon on 6th November is set to deliver all the more important. It is thanks to the Moon's transit through your career sector from 5th November to 7th November, something that halfway between the Sun's last visit to the next, is able to jump start things professionally. With no planetary activity here since Uranus left in July and Venus' departure from your work sector last month having ended all planetary activity on the job front for the year as well, professionally this couldn't be more important.
This is also a Full Moon that will always fall at some point during the Sun's month long visit to your home and family sector, something that in the first three weeks of November will have the solar spotlight on things close to home. As the Sun and Moon clash to create the Full Moon, this can put your work/life balance to the test and this time, with Uranus retrograding back into your career sector on 8th November to bring this professional year home, the timing couldn't be better. With continuous planetary activity in your home and family sector all month and Venus joining the Sun on 7th November to make home where your heart is, this will remain important.
Also benefiting from having the right work/life balance is the rise in planetary activity in a playful and creative part of your chart. While you begin the month with Mercury and Juno, the queen of commitment here, before the Sun can return on 22nd November, Mars' return on 5th November will change everything. It has been two years since Mars was last here and teaming up with the three planets in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery, this is going to power up the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence for not just the rest of this month, but for the rest of the year.

While the Sun won't return to your romantic sector until 22nd November, the point in each year when the solar spotlight will always shift onto matters of the heart, things that have been on a slow boil since the start of last month are set to power up long before that. It was at the start of the month that the asteroid Juno, who had spent a few months here earlier in the year before retrograding back out, returned for a do over. This was a chance to revisit the resolutions made earlier in the year, but in a way that was preparation for what is coming. Even Mercury's return late last month was part of that preparation.
Normally spending just 14 to 15 days working to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page, while Mercury will leave on 19th November, a retrograde turn on 10th November means that it will be by backing out, only to return for a do over once back in direct motion next month. While Venus, the planet of love won't return to begin what she will be working to make some of the most romantically charged weeks of the year until 1st December, something that will keep her here right through to Christmas, the spirit of romance will get a major boost when on 5th November Mars, the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos returns to your romantic sector for the first time in two years.
With Mercury not eventually leaving until early January, the final two months of the year are set to be the most romantically charged. For now, Venus is more focused on her mission to give your heart and your relationships a voice before leaving your communication sector on 7th November, just as Pluto has moved into his first full month in direct motion in your relationship sector. This bodes well for a positive end to the year on both the romantic and relationship fronts, with the Moon's return to your romantic sector from 20th November to 23rd November and to your relationship sector from 25th November to 28th November, a chance to capture this.
