Your November 2021 Horoscope
What’s in store for you in November? Gritty Pretty’s resident astrologer Emma Vidgen reveals all…
ARIES
How are you doing, like really doing? 2021 has been *a time*, and it’s highly likely you’ve powered through it, just like you always do. This month, the skies are inviting you to take a minute and check-in with yourself. Acknowledging the scar tissue and meeting it with sensitivity should be top of your list. Rally that Aries courage to dig deeper and face the wounds you’ve been putting to one side. It’s not easy work, but acknowledging what’s really going on, and how this year’s craziness has changed you, will help you process. There’ll be plenty of time to get back to regular fiery programming once Sagittarius season rolls around (22 November).
Tip: Try a self-guided 21-day mindfulness meditation challenge
TAURUS
Tensions ramp up this month as the intensity of mid-year begins to build once again. Big questions that have been weighing heavily on your mind will come back into focus. It’s a season of truth bombs and big realisations. Trust that any cracks that appear in your grand plans are design flaws that need a rethink. This stuff is coming up because it needs your attention. If you’ve been burying your head in the sand, it’s time to get real. Whether you stay or go is up to you but going into things with your eyes wide open—especially in relationships—is essential to building a more sustainable future.
Tip: Trust your gut when it comes to your closest relationships
GEMINI
There’s intrigue in the air this month, with the skies bringing lots of unexpected exposés. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to watch and learn as the drama unfolds. Surprise developments—especially at work—could leave you reeling … and maybe a little cranky. Resist the temptation to go on the offensive. The key is to stay observant (one of your superpowers!) and watch what happens. Not everyone will keep their cool but if you can stay curious, the new developments could help you refine your longer-term game plan.
Tip: Stay curious about what’s going on beneath the surface—especially at work
CANCER
There’s potential for some friction this month as Scorpio season (until 22 November) highlights the holes in our grand plans. Ongoing drama with friends, especially involving cash, could flare up and leave you feeling quite indignant. If cracks appear, trust that it’s better to know now, than find out later. The truth isn’t always easy, but when it comes to relationships, honesty is always the best policy. On the plus side, your creativity will be on lock and will have you feeling extra inspired. Manage your frustrations by prioritising play.
Tip: Throw yourself into a creative project to manage stress
LEO
The ongoing storyline of 2021 centering on your work and relationships is firmly in focus this month, as Scorpio season shines a spotlight on any weak spots in your longer-term strategy. The realisations will come thick and fast—some more surprising than others. Making time for stillness and giving yourself an outlet to process frustration is essential to navigating the turbulence. Understanding the deeper impact of this year’s chaos, especially on the people closest to you, will be a silver lining to the intense astro weather.
Tip: Pay attention to how work and relationships impact your home life
VIRGO
Your knee-jerk reaction to fix things will be in overdrive in November, but now is not the time to rush in and clean up the mess. As the drama kicks up a notch, the best approach is to hang back and pay attention to what’s really going on. Recurring issues around restriction and uncertainty will reemerge on a larger scale impacting your work and travel plans. Your #1 goal is to drill down and see where the shortcomings lie. Draw on that Virgo power of analysis to see what the deeper truths are and respond rather than react accordingly.
Tip: When things go awry, remain analytical and try to glean the deeper meaning
LIBRA
There’s no ignoring the bigger themes of this year as the skies stir up plenty of question marks around what’s really going on. With the piercing spotlight of Scorpio season (until 22 November), shining a light on any shortcomings, your number one homework will be to stay calm. Numbing out with shopping will be a huge temptation; resist the urge to drop a bunch of cash as a quick fix. The limitations you’re encountering are coming up for a reason—the plan needs more work. Pay attention and consider how you could revise your longer-term goals and start plotting accordingly.
Tip: Resist the urge to shop your troubles away
SCORPIO
With energy levels restored, you’ll be feeling a bit more like your old self. But despite your newfound joie de vivre, there’ll be plenty of drama especially the first few weeks of the month. With the ongoing tension—especially around love and where you’re living—highlighted, the frustration will be palpable. Use that Scorpio focus to separate what truly matters from what’s not meant to come with you. Trust that any big bombshells are necessary stepping stones to a stronger game plan. Try to remain philosophical and balance the heavy thinking with plenty of fun. Your creative streak will be coming in hot, so tap that gold and see what unfolds.
Tip: Trust your gut, especially when it comes to love and family
SAGITTARIUS
Laying low isn’t really in your wheelhouse but the first few weeks of this month, the skies are inviting you to go to ground. Scorpio season (until 22 November) is a perfect time for some enforced chill. With your intuition especially strong, noticing the signs and messages from your deeper self should be high on your agenda. Meditate, swim, journal, make love. Stay in your own lane and let the drama unfolding outside (and there will most definitely be drama!) play out with minimal input from you. Come the 22 November, your home season will bring the fire and you can re-emerge refreshed and inspired.
Tip: Connect with your intuition and schedule some enforced down time
CAPRICORN
The past month has been huge for Cap folks, but this month there’s a vibe change as the broader themes of 2021 come clearly back into focus. That’s not to say November is without drama, but the work-til-you-drop mood should ease off (TF!). There’s potential for some big developments to unfold—especially when it comes to friends. The revelations may come as a surprise, but trust whatever comes up is information you’d rather have, than not. It may be hard to hear in the moment but long-term, the truth is always a more faithful master than ignorance.
Tip: Trust your instinct in the face of uncertainty—especially when it comes to friends
AQUARIUS
After a month or so of reprieve, Aquarians are back in the hot seat primed for some major revelations the first few weeks of —especially related to work/life balance. If there’s shortcomings in your strategy, Scorpio season (until 22 November) promises to show you where you need to go back to the drawing board and refine your plan. Trust that you’d rather spot the holes in your boat now, before you push back and you’re miles from shore. Your intuition is bang-on; deep down, you know exactly what to do. Test out those big ideas and have the confidence to pull the plug when things aren’t working.
Tip: See setbacks as a blessing in disguise, helping you future-proof your big plans
PISCES
After a whole lot of soul-searching in October, Scorpio season (until 22 November) is drawing you out of the shadows and back to real life. The reality could be a little intense, as the skies highlight the larger themes that have dominated 2021. Despite the drama, there’s the chance to glean some wisdom, if you’re willing to dig a little deeper. On the plus side, you’ll get a sweet hit of creative inspiration—that could help you approach the problems that arise with a sense of healthy detachment. Lean into that mood whenever the feeling takes you, before Sagittarius season (22 November onwards) shifts your focus to work.
Tip: Use your creativity to detach from drama and navigate setbacks
Hot tip: try reading these horoscopes for your rising sign as well as your sun sign. You can check the Co-Star app or have your charts read by an astrologist to see what your rising sign is.
