ASTROLOGICAL WEATHER | NOVEMBER 23–29, 2025
I have only a few spaces left on my books for ASTROLOGY and TAROT for the year. An astrology reading with me is a way to glimpse into the future—to understand where these tides are flowing in your own chart, what is closing, and what is waiting to begin.
Something has clicked, hasn’t it? Not brightly, not loudly, not in a way you could point to and name — but in that deep-bone, deep-belly way that tells you a truth has risen from the underworld of your own knowing. A truth you didn’t hunt for. A truth that simply arrived because you were ready to hold it. This week is the settling of that realisation. The steadying of the newly rearranged inner landscape. The quiet exhale after the internal earthquake.
As the week opens, MERCURY retrograde folds back into VENUS in the dark, distilled waters of SCORPIO, and something softens in the mind: the ability to speak without armouring, to think without defensiveness, to understand yourself and others without collapsing into old stories. Conversations deepen but they also simplify. What was swirling emotionally in the past weeks begins to sharpen into clarity. This is truth-telling not as confrontation, but as intimacy. A moment where the mind and the heart stop negotiating and, instead, agree.
By midweek, the emotional atmosphere shifts — gently, like a window opening in a room that needed air. The MOON moving through AQUARIUS brings a cooling perspective, creating just enough distance for clarity to settle. Something that felt suffocating becomes breathable; something that felt personal becomes less about you and more about the pattern itself. This slight detachment isn’t avoidance — it is relief, the kind that lets you see newly, freshly, intelligently.
But the deepest pivot arrives as SATURN stations direct in PISCES, joined by the MOON. Where there was fog, form begins to appear. Where you’ve felt unmoored or emotionally porous since midyear, a boundary, a structure, a path rises from the waterline. This is not rigid clarity — it’s spiritual coherence. A realisation that your sensitivity is actually your scaffolding, and that the lessons of the past months were not chaos but calibration. Emotional commitment, spiritual discipline, and the quiet strength of intuition all click back into place, but gently — like a tide choosing to turn.
And at the week’s end, MERCURY finally ends its retrograde in SCORPIO, and the mind exhales. The internal sorting completes. The threads weave together. What was felt but not yet understood becomes legible. You recognise the pattern beneath the pattern. You understand what the past three weeks have really been about — how your body knew the truth long before your mind was ready to name it. This is not a blaze forward; it is a steady step, a clear step, a step taken with conviction rather than urgency.
This week is the quiet stabilisation after a deep internal shift.
A settling of ash into new ground.
A soft coherence.
A return to yourself with more truth, more clarity, and more compassion than before.

This week softens you where you least expect it. As MERCURY and VENUS merge in SCORPIO, something inside you clarifies around intimacy, shared resources, or power dynamics.

When SATURN stations direct in PISCES, old fears lose their grip. Your inner world steadies, and a deeper spiritual truth rises. By the week’s end, MERCURY direct helps you reclaim your agency. You step forward with clearer instincts and a more grounded sense of what’s worth investing in.

A dream that has been reshaping itself for months finally shows its outline. With MERCURY direct, your voice grows more assured. You speak, write, or share something that has needed articulation.

With MERCURY direct, the internal narrative that’s been rewiring becomes coherent. You see your future with more clarity than you have in months.
TAROT OF THE WEEK
Eight of Pentacles
This week returns you to your craft — the quiet, focused devotion that only you know how to give. The EIGHT OF PENTACLES is the card of refinement, of the slow mastery that happens when we stop rushing toward an imagined outcome and instead honour the work in front of us.
Under the MERCURY retrograde sliding back into SCORPIO and the NEW MOON that asked us to look inward, this card reminds you that you already have what you need. The skill. The instinct. The ability to deepen. Every effort you make now accrues, compounds, and strengthens your path forward.
It is a card that whispers:
Do not scatter.
Do not abandon your becoming.
Do not forget how capable you are.
There is gold in the repetition, revelation in the return, magic in the work you keep choosing.
