Virgo

Words, messages and second drafts shape the first half of November for Virgo. Mercury, your ruler, is retrograde in your area of communication and close contacts, so a misunderstanding with a sibling or neighbor, an unanswered email or an unfinished course may come back for attention. When the Sun meets Mercury on November 4, the missing piece of a conversation may fall into place, and once the retrograde ends on November 13, paperwork and plans can start moving. As Venus ends its retrograde in your area of income and values, it may be easier to see what truly matters. The Mars-Jupiter meeting in Leo falls in your private, behind-the-scenes area, a time better suited to quiet preparation and recharging than to showing every card. Home and family may claim more time once the Sun enters Sagittarius. The Gemini Full Moon on November 24 illuminates your career area and may bring a professional effort into the spotlight, while the Sun's opposition to Uranus there can add an unexpected twist between work and home. Mars enters your own sign on November 25, which may restore your drive and make personal initiatives easier to launch.
