Weekly Horoscope: November 9, 2026 to November 15, 2026—The Underworld Awakens

November 8, 2026

We are certainly in the midst of Scorpio season, and with so much scorpionic energy in the cosmos, we are deep in our feels, investigating the shadow sides of life, and hungering for our desires. Scorpio season tends to make us “all-or-nothing” and make people more intense, as this zodiac sign is ruled by both Mars, the planet of passion and anger, and Pluto, the planet of transformation and the underworld. However, this doesn’t inherently make Scorpio energy bad by any means, as we must respect both the light and dark sides of human nature. Without daylight, we would not be able to bask in the sun, and without darkness, we could not know what lies in the depths of the unknown.


The Energy Profile Of This Week

This week, we have a new moon kicking off the days ahead in Scorpio on November 9, 2026. In the week that follows, we may be encouraged to delve deep into our souls, our secrets, the esoteric, our relationships, or even wealth matters. Unfortunately, the planets are clashing with this new moon, which could heat up tempers, inflate people’s egos, and bring a bit of confusion. Luckily, Venus and Mercury retrograde end on November 13 after quite a long journey into Dante’s Inferno.

Speaking of Mercury and Venus both turning direct on November 13, it is highly likely that this entire week will feel a bit of whiplash—and then a standstill—as if we are waiting with bated breath to see how the dust is going to settle. Be sure to reference your individual horoscopes in recent weeks, as you’ll likely see how both of these karmic transits have been causing your life to alter. Mercury navigates its orbit on November 30, while Venus will do so on December 15. Pay close attention to those dates in my future weekly horoscopes.

As for astrological aspects this week, November 9 will fill us with vibrant, sexy, and romantic energy as Venus sextiles Mars. Venus is still retrograde, so it may be a good time to meet up with someone from the past. Jupiter will stand opposite the True Node on November 11, so watch to see if something destined enters or exits your life. It could be “meant to be,” redirecting your life’s journey. Mars will conjunct Jupiter on November 15, which can amplify our personal and professional desires as we seek to conquer our paths—and this energy can be felt for days before and after. Let the fiery, sexy, and expansive celestial ooze from your spirit!

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

As the heavens turn, you’re set to experience a rather intense and evocative new moon this week, Aries. It may highlight a few different themes for you, depending on where you are in your life. For instance, wealth matters may become more apparent, as a door opens to acquire more riches. Meeting with a consultant about assets, investments, an inheritance, a bonus, or beyond may be helpful. As for intimate relationships, you may be assessing where you stand. Lead with honesty and an open heart.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

One of the most important weeks for your significant relationships is upon you, Taurus. As the new moon dawns, you will likely be focusing on a one-on-one union. Flying solo is not the ideal way to harness this energy, as you should consider ways to connect with someone who can aid you as a team, personally or professionally. If you are in an established union, you may take things to the next level, move in, get engaged or wed, or even decide to go separate ways. However, if you can wait to make official announcements until next week, that may be better due to Venus and Mercury retrograde still at this time.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

Even though you are still dealing with the sluggish pace of Venus and Mercury retrograde—Mercury being your cosmic planetary ruler, after all—the new moon could kickstart you to get moving and grooving, Gemini. Productivity is the key approach to harnessing this energy, and you may find that you are able to get a lot done, in particular when it comes to your employment projects, routines, responsibilities, or even physical health. This may be a positive time to reconnect with an old employer or coworker, if you so wish.

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

This week’s new moon highlights your heart’s passions, so it’s time to let yourself come out of your shell, Cancer. Each year, we tend to get only one new moon that energizes this sector of our lives, which rules true love and dating, expression and art, hobbies and sports, as well as anything to do with children. If one of these themes is of particular interest to you, you may have more luck pursuing it. Connecting with someone “from the past” may also be positive if you do it this week. But move quickly—Venus and Mercury retrograde will soon awaken and close one portion of “the vortex of the past.”

LEO (JULY 23 – AUGUST 22)

As much as you’re a social butterfly, you do love to transform your living space into a kingdom, Leo. This week could find you spending more time at home, with family, focusing on your domestic life, or even investigating real estate. Even if there have been some intense situations around any of these themes in recent years, you may enjoy the nostalgic vibe of the week to help you reconnect with the sacred joy you’ve been missing. By honoring where you came from, you can better build in the era to come.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 – SEPTEMBER 22)

Don’t hide your ideas away now, Virgo. That is—as long as you’ve gotten all the facts and done the research! This week’s new moon is encouraging you to step up to the microphone and assess the special messages you want to communicate, whether that is in a written, verbal, or digital format. Revamping social media? Why not? Even if you don’t feel like you have something you’re ready to announce, get invested in a good book or podcast.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 – OCTOBER 22)

Finances have likely been a bit topsy-turvy in recent months, Libra, with the retrogrades certainly affecting them! This should slowly but surely regulate, in particular by the end of this month. Luckily, you have a new moon that kicks the door open to new income, whether in the form of a raise, a new side hustle, or an exciting job offer—but the key is to put yourself out there and be on the hunt! In fact, if you wish to return to an old client or source of income, this may be an ideal time to do so.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 – NOVEMBER 21)

The most important new moon of the year is calling out to you, Scorpio—your cosmic birthday gift from the universe! Any time that you experience a new moon in your zodiac sign, you have open doors to pursue your most important goals, whether they be personal or professional. Consider the patterns you want to build now and set forth to make them happen. Even if you use this week to take your time, the retrogrades will conclude at the end of this week. Then you can hit the ground running!

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 – DECEMBER 21)

You’re all about the hustle and bustle and keeping yourself busy with a million irons in the fire to captivate your curiosity, Sagittarius, but this week could find you spending a bit more time in solitude, resting, and relaxing. Life comes with ebbs and flows, so it’s not a bad thing to “take a breather” if you do so this week. Spend time journaling, reflecting, and being nostalgic. You may have a “creative breakthrough” that seems to manifest out of intuition or even a dream.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 – JANUARY 19)

A rather festive and fun period may await you now, Capricorn. Not just this week, though, but in the weeks ahead, too! The new moon spotlights your communities and social networks—and while you’ve likely heard from many acquaintances from the past—this is a time to find ways to grow closer with your tribe. Asking for favors from people who adore and support you is also an excellent way of harnessing this cosmic glow. Be confident in your aspirations and go toward them, while enlisting others to your aid.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 – FEBRUARY 18)

In recent weeks, there have likely been some delays or confusion around your career and professional matters, Aquarius. Ultimately, it doesn’t have to be a bad thing, as you could have used this time to take off or review your strategies. This week’s new moon is pushing you to really analyze your goals and what you seek to build in the year ahead. Start from A to Z and get moving—especially after Venus and Mercury retrograde awaken closer to this weekend.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 – MARCH 20)

Of all the zodiac signs, you are always eager to swim into new seas, explore what life has to offer, and try new things, Pisces! This week’s new moon is offering just that! Don’t sit back and wait for adventure to call your name. Find ways to put yourself in the position for unique experiences, as well as meet inspiring and interesting people. They may inspire you and cause you to reflect on your life and what you still do not know. You’ll be glad that you did! Travel may also be a fun way of harnessing this energy!
