We’re in for a very Sagittarian week with three major cosmic events taking place in this mutable fire sign.
The action kicks off when communication-ruling Mercury stations retrograde in outspoken Sagittarius on Monday. Don’t be afraid to press pause as the speedy planet starts moving in reverse — you may need an extra moment to figure out the best way to respond to others. It’s also important to stay nimble during this chaotic transit, and giving yourself some added wiggle room in your schedule can help you handle any curve balls that happen to come your way. Do your best to remove distractions so you can focus on what truly matters until Dec. 15, when Mercury stations direct.
You may feel like nothing can hold you back from achieving what you want when the spirit-driving sun in adventurous Sagittarius trines energetic Mars in confident Leo on Wednesday. This aspect could even inspire you to dive headfirst into the unknown — summon your courage and determination to pursue projects that align with your values. You may also find that this influence has a flirtatious quality that encourages you to prioritize romance, passion and connection. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to engage with someone you’ve been eyeing, this could be the perfect opportunity to make sparks fly.
Then, be sure to give yourself some room to breathe during the new moon in Sagittarius on Sunday (or late Saturday evening, depending on your time zone). This powerful lunation will give us a chance to better understand ourselves and set more effective intentions. Carve out time to really think about how your surroundings influence your behaviour and hold space for any emotions that get brought up along the way.
Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, November 25, 2024.
Aries
Be open to a little course correction, Aries. As Mercury travels in reverse over the next few weeks, you may notice that certain ideas or practices that once rang true to you no longer make sense in your world. Avoid getting stuck in a rut by being brave enough to branch out. Who knows? Opening your mind to fresh methods and routines might even help you become more efficient in the long run. Then, you could start to feel more restless as the weekend approaches and find that this energy awakens a new passion within you. Make the most of this rush of exhilaration by letting your imagination run wild and writing down everything you want to pursue.
Taurus
When was the last time you really checked in with yourself, Taurus? Starting now, and throughout the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, you’re urged to focus on healing and nurturing your sweet spirit. This will be a beautiful moment to truly let go of the past and free yourself from any grudges or old wounds that have been weighing you down. Meanwhile, if you’ve been thinking about making some improvements to your home, looking within could help you determine what it’ll really take to manifest your vision. Journalling, meditation and spending time in nature are all great ways to get in touch with what you want for your space.
Gemini
Tread carefully, Gemini. As Mercury turns retrograde at the beginning of this week, you may notice that people’s fuses seem particularly short. Try to be extra mindful of your words as you navigate this testy transit. Leading with empathy and working to heighten your awareness of others’ feelings will help you maintain harmony — and weather any conflicts that happen to crop up. Then, this weekend could provide you with a beautiful opportunity to assess your relationships and consider how you show up for others. Set an intention to build connections with those who appreciate your innate value.
Cancer
Have you been craving a deep clean, Cancer? Starting now, and throughout the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, you’ll find that working to bring more order to the chaos of your space not only invigorates you, but also helps to banish any feelings of overwhelm or anxiety. Use this moment to reorganize your paperwork, devices and other belongings, and watch how quickly it frees up your mental capacity. Then, come mid-week, you may feel as though you’re at a turning point in your career. Go ahead and muster up the courage to make a big power move — and have faith that your hard work will pay off.
Leo
You’re allowed to take a break from the spotlight, Leo. In fact, from now through the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, you’re fully encouraged to do so. This will be a beautiful opportunity for you to take a seat in the audience and absorb inspiration from the talents and perspectives of others. You may even find that taking this brief respite helps you rekindle your creative spark and come up with an ingenious money-making idea. Then, romance will be in the air this weekend, which is sure to make your heart flutter with joy. If you’re single, this could be an excellent time to reach out to someone special and show them your softer side.
Virgo
You know very well that less is more, Virgo. But let this be your motto from now through the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde. This transit will provide you with the perfect opportunity to downsize, declutter or totally reorganize your home. You may even find that you’re able to think more clearly once you’ve given your space some much-needed attention. Come mid-week, however, be sure to carve out a few moments to recalibrate and recharge your emotional batteries. Spending a little time in solitude might even open you up to a flash of genius that would’ve otherwise been unreachable.
Libra
Stay flexible, Libra. Starting now and throughout the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, situations and conversations may not always go as you expect them to — and you may need to find solutions to mixups or miscommunications on the fly. Giving yourself extra time to get things done will also help you protect your peace and ensure your mood remains sunny as you navigate this transit. Then, as the weekend approaches, you may be feeling more spontaneous and eager to say yes to any invitation that comes your way. Just remember to really consider your capacity and what you’d like to welcome into your life before you accept any offers.
Scorpio
Watch your wallet, Scorpio. Starting now and throughout the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, you’ll be called to monitor your spending and focus on strengthening your relationship with your finances overall. Challenge yourself to stick to a firm budget and make use of what you already have. This is not the time to give in to impulse purchases, however great they might make you feel at first. Then, come mid-week, you could be on the precipice of reaching a brand new level in your career. Don’t miss this chance to ask for the support you need; people will be paying attention and will likely be eager to help you achieve your goals.
Sagittarius
Watch your words, Sagittarius. As Mercury travels retrograde from now through the next few weeks, you may find it more difficult than usual to get your message across to people. If you do feel a disconnect, try to use this as an opportunity to reassess how you communicate. Taking a step back to look at things from the perspectives of others could help you figure out how to rephrase your intentions in a way that your friends and loved ones can understand. Then, as the weekend arrives, your sense of self-love could start to grow, inspiring you to reinvent yourself. Now is the time to implement any changes that have been simmering beneath the surface.
Capricorn
Be kind to yourself, Capricorn. Starting now and throughout the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, you’re encouraged to try to cut out the background noise and quiet your critical mind. While it may be difficult to connect with your softer side at first, carving out time in solitude to engage in some deep concentration may allow you to finally let go of negative patterns that have been holding you back. Then, you’ll be wise to pay attention to your dreams this weekend, as your subconscious could reveal truths that you’ve yet to fully process. Be sure to keep a journal nearby to jot down any wisdom that emerges.
Aquarius
Don’t believe everything you hear, Aquarius. From now through the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, your social circle may be particularly unreliable when it comes to sharing information — even if certain friends claim to have insider knowledge. Try to reserve your judgment and be sure to double-check your sources before you engage in plans or gossip. Then, on the weekend, you could be exposed to a new group of people who can help you make valuable connections in your career. Harness this moment to network with those who share your interests and challenge your thinking.
Pisces
Ride the wave, Pisces. From now through the next few weeks of Mercury in retrograde, choppy emotional waters may have you feeling turned upside down, but try not to let them pull you under. Taking responsibility for your actions will allow you to gracefully move past any mistakes you happen to make. Meanwhile, when it comes to your career, you’ll be in a prime position to stand up for yourself and claim the recognition you deserve. If you’ve been dreaming of a brighter future, take advantage of this moment to pursue opportunities you feel truly passionate about. Ask yourself: how would you show up if you weren’t afraid of the spotlight?
