Despite feeling some kind of way this Scorpio season—Mercury is in retrograde until November 13—the horoscope for November 2026, especially the second half of the month, brings great clarity, determination and a more direct energy for many signs. Two zodiac signs, though, astrologer Georgii Tsoi, better known as Gosh, says, will have a particularly favourite time: Scorpio and Aquarius.
So why is that? Well, these two signs are linked to Pluto, which resumed its direct motion in mid-October. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, while Pluto is currently transiting Aquarius. This planet is largely shaping a new generation of people born today and also exerts a significant influence on those born under Aquarius. For these two signs, life will once again feel like it’s moving forward.
At the same time, Mercury and Venus—both of which are or were retrograde—are set to resume direct motion between November 12 and 16. Many Scorpios have certainly felt the effects of this retrograde. When a planet resumes direct motion, it promotes the forward movement of events rather than their reversal.
Around the same time, on November 15, Mars and Jupiter will form a conjunction. Mars is the planet of action and motivation, while Jupiter is associated with expansion and good fortune. This is a significant event, as this conjunction occurs only about every two and a half years. It could give many people the momentum they need to seize their opportunities and reach new heights. The most surprising moment arrives at the end of the month, on November 24, with the full moon, which is also influenced by Uranus, the planet of unexpected events and surprises, and rules Aquarius. A quick tip for reading your horoscope and better understanding astrology: look at both your sun sign and your rising sign. Also, when you hear that a planet rules a sign—as in this article, where Pluto rules Scorpio and Uranus rules Aquarius—it simply means that this planet defines the energy of that sign. Scorpios are traditionally considered intense, deep and powerful, while Aquarians are known for their innovative spirit, forward-thinking outlook and sense of community.
Which areas of Scorpio and Aquarius’s lives will be most affected, and what should they pay attention to?
For Scorpios, identity seems to be a central concern in their horoscope for November 2026. Many will question who they are and feel the need to change certain aspects of their personal expression—whether it’s a haircut, their style or their makeup. As long as Venus and Mercury are retrograde, I’d advise them to wait. If you really want to make these changes, wait until the end of the month. But many Scorpios will focus mainly on how their identity is evolving right now, what they want to embody and the reputation they want to build for themselves. In mid-November, Scorpios might feel a tremendous surge of energy and find themselves in the spotlight when it comes to their careers, public reputation, ambitions and quest for recognition. This may also involve issues of authority, whether it’s a supervisor, investors, or, more generally, influential people. With all the planets in direct motion during the second half of the month, Scorpios will finally be able to finish what they’ve started and move forward without any setbacks.
For Aquarius, major changes could revolve around their relationships. Pluto, the planet of transformation, is in their sign. Over the next few years, Aquarius will therefore see their identities evolve and undergo a profound transformation, to the point of becoming almost unrecognisable. And their relationships won’t be spared from these changes. Many may meet an ambitious and influential partner, a best friend, or even a client, if they offer services. It could be a client who changes the course of their life, a best friend who helps them advance their career, or a relationship that gives them greater influence in society. With the full moon at the end of the month, Aquarius’s romantic situations, self-expression, creativity and personal projects will come to fruition. For you, Aquarius, this will be the biggest surprise and the most significant moment in the year.
