Your Weekly Horoscope for November 7, 2021

This week, falling between an intense Scorpio new moon and game-changing Taurus full moon and lunar eclipse, brings highs and lows of its own, owed to a whole lineup of planets hanging out in the fixed water sign.

On Wednesday, November 10, Mercury pairs up with Mars but later squares off against taskmaster Saturn in fixed air sign Aquarius to amplify mental activity and go-getter vibes. But the same day, action-oriented Mars in Scorpio similarly clashes with serious Saturn, which can create a frustrating energy that can make you feel like you're running through mud to reach the finish line. And the more you push, the tougher things get. Thankfully, on Friday, November 12, the sun will get along with dreamy Neptune to support empathy, imagination, and even a little bit of magic. And the week closes out on Saturday, November 13 with messenger Mercury in Scorpio opposing game-changer Uranus in grounded, sensual Taurus, which can crank up the volume on quick thinking — but also any existing nervousness and anxiety.

(Pro tip: Be sure to read your rising sign/ascendant, aka your social personality, if you know that, too. If not, consider getting a natal chart reading to find out.)

Aries (March 21–April 19)

Your weekly highlights: Money 🤑 and Sex 🔥

On Wednesday, November 10, your ruler, go-getter Mars in your eighth house of joint resources squares off against taskmaster Saturn in your eleventh house of networking, making it tough to get on the same page as a loved one or friend — possibly around money or a shared goal.

And on Friday, November 12, the confident sun in your eighth house — which also oversees sex — forms a sweet trine to mystical Neptune in your twelfth house of spirituality, boosting your appetite for getting swept up in your fantasies. This could be a day to wrap up your work a bit earlier than usual in order to enjoy solo play or quality bonding time with your partner. (
