November Astrology: Pluto in Aquarius Horoscopes

November is a month that brings a big, seismic shift for all of us. Pluto will enter the sign of Aquarius for the first time in almost 250 years. If that wasn’t enough cosmic energy we have Mercury in Sagittarius and Mars in Leo- both feiry, fire signs. We’ll wrap the month up with our last Mercury retrograde of 2024.

It all feels a little like a cosmic “lions, and tigers, and bears oh my!” and a look behind the curtain of the great and powerful Oz- represented by Pluto. Hold, tight because Pluto is an outer planet that plays the long game-like 20 years when it officially leaves Aquarius in 2044.

However, November is a key time for uncovering what this Pluto in Aquarius transit holds for you. You can think of November like the stars that you are charting your ship’s course by….for the next 20 years. 

This isn’t: “Oh, I’ve got plenty of time to work with this”

It’s: “I’m going to be listening in November so I know exactly where and what I will be course correcting my ship towards.”

What is underneath the surface of who you are and the life you are living?

What will you grasp onto if you fumble around in your shadows?

What structures have you handed your power over to or were disillusioned by?

What are the hard questions you’ve been afraid to ask?

If there is a place in your life that is requiring change, a structure to be dismantled, a system you no longer want to be a part of. If there is a version of you that wants to be embodied then start the transformation. What steps can you take today for the person you are tomorrow?

We are coming close to the end of the Gregorian calendar year; a time when we reflect and set our sights on next year. While we focus on the future, Mars and Mercury are bringing energies of courage, capability and optimism. 

Mars in Leo is pushing you to be bold, to exert your willpower, to find courage. To be assertive in exploring new boundaries of what you are truly capable of. Dream the big dream, and trust that you have the gumption to achieve it.

Mercury is in Sagittarius bringing the optimism and a desire to expand what you know. Sagittarius is our seeker of truth, wandering into the unknown to find an updated version of our belief systems. It’s time to confront the truth of what the narratives in your mind are actually doing to you and your future. Replace the “I can’t, I’m scared, what if it doesn’t work out” narrative to “I can, I’m empowered, and what if it goes better than I could have imagined”. If the thoughts in your head tend to lean towards fear, then they can also lean towards love. You have the capacity to hold both and to choose which one you attend to. 

Mercury will enter its final retrograde of 2024 on November 25. You’re going to be asked to slow down, to go inward and reflect. Take the time from now until November 25 to think about where you are headed. When the retrograde begins you’ll be given the chance to tap into all the inner wisdom you need to make 2025 a reality- wherever you are steering your ship. 

If you want to reflect on where some insight may have already happened, examine these time periods:

March-June 2023 

January-September 2024 

There’s no place like home- is beginning to have a whole new meaning rooted in belonging. 

Pluto in Aquarius Breakdown

Pluto is our planet of transformation, death, rebirth, power, wealth, secrets and mystery. It covers a lot, it holds a lot. The main theme is that it will destroy, destruct, and unearth all the places that are no longer serving. It removes the surface to get to the deep, dark systems that are operating under the surface. It wants to know what is corrupting our soul and poisoning our well of possibilities.  

Pluto comes with an energy that if we won’t speak to it, pull it from the darkness into the light, tear out its roots, then how can we ever transform and transcend? Pluto may feel harsh, but it has your best interests at heart. 

"One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious." — Carl Jung

When Pluto enters Aquarius on November 19 that transformation enters the realm of humanity. Aquarius is a pioneer, a visionary and a humanitarian. The Aquarian symbol is that of a water bearer-but it’s not a water sign, it's an Air sign.

The actual meaning of the symbol is about what is being poured from the vessel. The water is a symbol of knowledge, wisdom and healing being poured out or offered to humanity. That is why Aquarius is such an outsider because they can see what the rest of us can’t. They show us the way by offering wisdom, knowledge and healing to find a new path forward. Thank you, Aquarius.   

When Pluto and Aquarius come together we will have to face the reality of the world we live in. Who holds power; the institutions and structures we have perhaps put too much trust and faith in. The friends, groups, and communities we belong to will undergo change. It’s a time where you can tap into your heart-led rebel with a cause- and raise that flag. It will start with you, and begin to extend outward. 

Pluto in Aquarius Horoscopes

Aries & Aries Rising

What is friendship, what is community, and how are you participating in civilization? Oh yeah, Aries listen to what comes up around these themes over the next several months! This Pluto transit is going to shift the circles you find yourself in and have you examining your community in a whole new way. Put your ear to the pavement and listen for group activities or gatherings that are happening in your backyard. 

This is the end of friends and friend groups who don’t get the assignment. We want to clear space, and make room, start accepting applications for your dream team. Is your circle made up of people who teach you, people who support you, and people you are teaching?  

It’s time to find your unique group of misfits and rebels, the collective that rails against the status quo and makes you feel at home. At home in the revolution of who you are. 

Taurus & Taurus Rising 

Where are you going next Taurus? It’s okay to feel like you are at a bit of a crossroads around your profession or career choices. In the coming months you can take your time examine what the next step will be. Do you feel confident to take that next promotion, are you leaving the industry you are in, or perhaps you are being called in a totally new direction?

Success is being redefined, have you noticed! As you chart your next course, what is the measuring stick for being successful and what do you want to be remembered for.

Start looking at what makes you feel safe, stable, secure and worthy. Now take a step back, look at the bigger picture and ask yourself are your values reflected in the public life you lead? Who do you work for, what is the work you are putting out in the world- do you believe in it and yourself?

Gemini & Gemini Rising

It’s time to broaden your horizons Gemini! Through your mind and the new experiences and wisdom you are looking to gain. If I was to ask you: Where will I come find you in 20 years from now? What is it that you hope to have accomplished, what do you want to check off the bucket list, what places have you not explored in your spirituality or some kind of higher learning?

If you are in a place right now, where in 20 years, you’ll still be here….that should get your wheels turning. I want you to think of the coming months like you are preparing for a journey- you take deep care of your body, you venture down the rabbit holes, you take all the courses and read all the books.

Be the explorer of your future- and don’t be surprised if your limiting beliefs or the perceptions of your world start to change. There are societies all over the world, living in many different ways…how do you know the one you’re in right now is right for you?

Cancer & Cancer Rising

It’s a deep dive for you, Cancer! In the coming months your relationship to finances, grief, loss and all the things that come with being human will arise. Pluto is attempting to unearth all the places where this pain can be transformed into wisdom.

What do you believe about transformation and the power you could hold if you were free from sorrow?  It’s time to ask for help wherever you need it, it’s a call to be unburdened. It’s truth time with Pluto.

It’s time to make space for your power and your worth- start connecting with groups that push you into higher ranks. How could what you are after be merged with another to help you get there. Is there somewhere where your resources and another’s take you to new heights?

Leo & Leo Rising

Over the next several months your relationships are being excavated Leo! This is time where your 1:1 relationships, of all kinds, can push you to a new level. Look at who you partner with and what they represent in terms of your evolution- from your fitness instructor, best friend or intimate partner. What are they showing you about who you are when in relationship?

You may not always like the reflection being shown-but that comes when we examine the truth. What have your past patterns around relationship brought up time and time again for you? I am going to give you a hint of how you can weigh the scales of your relationships: Do they keep you stagnant and restricted or dynamic and creative? Double hint: How many times and in how many relationships have you asked: “How did I get here again?”

Start there Leo and I promise there is major leaps and bounds waiting for you.

Virgo & Virgo Rising

How is your health, Virgo? No really, how are you feeling in mind, body and soul? Over the coming months, your health will be a central focus, you could be more accident prone so slow down. Additionally, if you have any outstanding health issues or indulgence that are causing more harm than good (think sugar and caffeine) it’s time make a change. 

The question really becomes: How are the routines, habits and organization of your life keeping you well? Preventing illness? And allowing you to show up in the outside world and your relationships as your best self?

Pluto is not trying to take you out, it’s trying to transform your health habits so your physical body can experience renewal. It’s about finding discipline so you can experience total freedom. Reduce the stress, dial down the over working, and start to uncover how you need to feel so you can welcome and hold the shifts that are coming. 

Libra & Libra Rising

Let’s bring a little drama, passion, and presence for you, Libra! When was the last time you allowed yourself to take up space? To let people look at you because you knew you were worthy of their stares. This is not about arrogance, it’s about allowing your power to radiate off you like a confidence boosting pheromone everyone wants to inhale.

It’s about sharing your beautiful gifts so that others feel empowered by you. Let shine, let it shine. You may be called to stand up and stand out over the coming months- looking for new thrills and pleasures. If that joy gum you’ve been chewing has lots it flavour, try a new brand- find a new way to bring the fun back in your life. Love affairs, romance and renewal in your intimate partnerships could come into focus. 

What expression does your heart need and what areas of your life need to have the spark reignited. In 20 years, when I ask you what do you do for fun? I want to see your face light up with excitement about being asked.

Scorpio & Scorpio Rising

Where is home and who is family, Scorpio? Pluto is going right across the area of your chart that rules ancestry, the family you came from, the family you created, and the physical place you call home. 

It’s time to examine the family you came from and the psychological imprints that were left and may still be active. This is change to the very core of who you are, the root from which your entire understanding of self and emotions are growing from. It’s deep work but it promises a transformation, a healing, a chance to nourish and rebalance the place within which you operate from.

You can do this Scorpio, you’re built for this work, Pluto is your ruling planet. In 20 years from now, who are you? Sometimes it can help to start with who you won’t be anymore….Because this work is so profound for you, it’s time to make your home sanctuary. Ensure you have the safest place to do your exploration surrounded by the people and animals who you nurture and who nurture you in return. 

Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising 

Your daily life and the mundane of the everyday are calling you Sagittarius! You can be pretty out there, focusing on the next great adventure, experience or opportunity, but right now is not the time. The everyday is calling to you, and with it, all the challenges that are present. The amount you side step or don’t address any rising tensions in your immediate environment will take centre stage in the coming months.

It’s time to speak to what frustrates you, to ask yourself what the seven days a week are really filled with. Is your life as rosy as you have been telling yourself? Or have you just been unwilling to focus on it? No shade, but it’s time for the truth. 

In 20 years from now, will there be something you regret about today, that was left unsaid. Take a look at the changes you can make so the parts of your world that have gone beige can be lived in full colour again. Your mind and your perceptions are about to shift.

Capricorn and Capricorn Rising

Pluto could bring changes to your financial circumstances and your values, Capricorn! This is a time to be careful with your money, paying attention to your assets, and asking yourself how many wants you have versus needs. You could even experience a change in your job during this time. 

You will be asked to examine your values- what is underpinning the decisions you make in this world. Doing exercises that allow you to re-evaluate what is truly important to you, beyond the material world, will be paramount. Ask yourself: My top 3 personal values I uphold in every decision I make are? Most people don’t have their values readily available because we think our values are based on acceptable societal moral standards, but they are so much more. Our values are an integrity and self-worth compass that allow us to remain in our authenticity; to never abandon ourselves.  

In 20 years from now, what would you rather be holding- a handful of cash and a mountain of assets or your health and the hearts of the people you love and who love you in return? 

Aquarius & Aquarius Rising

What’s up with you, Aquarius? No really, Pluto wants to know. This transit for you, and especially the next several months, will be a transformative journey into self. We don’t want you to lose your beautiful authenticity, we want you to examine it a little more. How does your ego and your desires motivate you in the outside world. What is the vision of self that you have and that you hold?

It’s time to embrace self-awareness or finely tune your skills with it. You can become easily distracted by the outside world or an idea- so finding a grounding practice that allows you to navigate this change is key. We want you to transform without losing you to the process of it- balance and attention to your nervous system.

You’re a freedom seeker, above all else, so find the freedom within. Uncover all those beautiful parts of self. Allow this transit to wash over every part of you. 

Pisces & Pisces Rising

Ohh this is a good one for you, Pisces! This is a genuine time of rebirth for you. In the coming months there will be a revisiting of the things you have experienced; this is not to be pull you under but to do a deep clean. We are clearing out and cleaning up all that you want to put in the “keep” or “toss” pile for your new cycle. 

This may not always be easy, so ensure you ask for help where it is needed and recognize when it arrives. What does the next chapter look like, where could that lead, and where do you want to land in 20 years from now? You are so great at wandering into your imagination, spend some time dreaming of future you.

Find solitude that serves your spirituality, find practices that make you feel good. Connect with who you are and all the wisdom you hold. Meditation, solo retreats, and connecting with your guides promise solace while you transform during this transit.
