This will be a big month, for all key parts of your chart are being touched and sparkling. As you begin November, you have a new moon energizing your ninth house of foreign people and places. You may be going to a distant country now or by next month, or working on a major project for a client based overseas from your home base. You may need to settle a citizenship, immigration, passport, visa, or green card matter, and if so, November is your best time to do so, for things should go smoothly for you.

If you are in the publishing or broadcasting business, you will be very much in demand. Some Pisces are in college or graduate school, and if that is you, you may be getting ready to hand in an important paper or take an exam. All these areas glow for you, and you will do well. The new moon is in Scorpio 8 degrees, a water sign like yours, encouraging all your innate talents.

This particular new moon, October 30, will be strong for ten days, and is a great time to get started on focusing on any of these areas. Neptune will be very friendly to this new moon, and because Neptune is your ruling planet, you will benefit more than any other sign from the opportunities that come up. You are a creative soul, and this time, Neptune will give you many ways to put your touch of individuality and artistry on the projects that you will be working on in November. This will feed your soul – being creative and visionary is at the heart of being a Pisces.

If your birthday falls on February 26, plus or minus four days, you will benefit the most from this full moon. Similarly, if you have Pisces rising, the natal moon in Pisces, or a natal planet in Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer, Taurus, Virgo, or Capricorn at 8 degrees plus or minus four degrees, you too will benefit in a very noticeable way.

Financially, watch November 4 for good news about your income, thanks to a beam Uranus will send to Venus, linking your house of earned income to your professional tenth house of career status, fame, and honors. It seems that not only will you get recognition for work well done on this day, but also be paid well too.

November 7 may be a day you are meeting with a VIP, for the Sun and Pluto will be in direct communication. A friend may be involved in this meeting, and it should go well, perhaps better than you expect.

The full moon, November 14 in Taurus, 23 degrees, will likely find you finishing a writing project or being asked to speak on a topic of your expertise. You appear to be reaching a culmination on this assignment, so perhaps your manuscript is ready to go to press. You may be printing important business or personal stationery (or other job that needs to go to the printer). You alternatively (or additionally) may be taking a short trip over the weekend of November 12-13, as all full moons have a plus or minus four days attached to them. You may be involved in an advertising or publicity, or presenting a marketing campaign. If you have designed a new website or app, it will be ready to show to the world on or within days of November 14.

Pisces who have a birthday that falls on March 13, plus or minus four days, will feel the benefits of this lovely full moon the most. Similarly, if you were born with Pisces rising, the natal moon in Pisces, or have a natal planet in Pisces, Scorpio, Cancer, Taurus, Virgo, or Capricorn at 23 degrees, plus or minus four degrees, you will notice that this full moon has a powerful effect on you.

Mars has been in Capricorn since September 27, but will change signs on November 8. In Capricorn, Mars has had you seeing more friends than usual, and you may have been touched to see how they are supportive of you. See if you can get out and about during the first week of November. However, your social life won’t grind to a halt at that time, for just as Mars is packing his bags, Venus will be moving into Capricorn two days later, on November 11, to stay until December 7. Venus will see to it that you will enjoy seeing people you’ve not seen in a long time.

When Mars leaves Capricorn on November 8, the red planet will move into Aquarius, and you will want more privacy and rest. Pisces likes to be with friends, but you also always have a strong corresponding need to be alone, to think, to create, and to reflect on the recent past. Mars will stay in Aquarius until December 19, at which time you will feel more energetic and be ready to get fully into the holiday spirit.

Save your biggest initiations for next month when from December 19 to January 28 Mars will tour Pisces. Having Mars in your sign is a big competitive advantage, for you will be the leader of the parade, and others will follow you wherever you go. You only get Mars in your sign once every two years, and when you do, it almost always marks a successful time for starting new projects and relationships. You will be passionate, determined, and courageous, and you will be unusually persuasive at this time.

Before you get to Mars in Pisces on December 19, you have a wonderful day coming, when Mars and Jupiter will be aligned in the friendliest way. Put a big star on December 1 and here is why, and how things may play out for you. On this day, your tenth house of prestigious career actions will be linked to your eighth house of large one-time financial payments, whether earned as commission or royalty or loaned, say in a mortgage or acquired through venture capital and other such sources. Jupiter is currently IN your ninth house so the money would also stem from foreign people and places, or a media project involving a publishing or broadcasting venture. It is also possible that at the same time a legal matter will be settled in your favor, and money would accrue to you. No doubt about it, December 1 will be a good day for money, for it will find its way to your door.

Speaking of money, you have two other days when you should be thrilled with financial news. The first will be November 22 when Mercury and Jupiter will work together to see that you do well with money. The other day when you may be completely surprised by financial news will be November 26, a day when Mercury and Uranus will be in heavenly angle and again send you cash, this time money that you are not expecting. Over the past few years, money has been up and down for you – always feast or famine, but happily, this month all news appears to be positive news when it comes to money.

Thanksgiving Day falls on November 24 this year, and is a US holiday that spans four days, though the weekend. If you are traveling to go home, see if you can leave on November 22, when Mercury will be well angled to Jupiter, for that’s when you are likely to get through the airport, rails, or traffic smoothly. The following day has Mercury conjunct Saturn, November 23, not as beneficial for travel at all. I mention this because in this country, more people travel at that time than any other time of the year. I want your holiday to be a positive one! Mercury rules your solar fourth house of home and family in your chart. November 22 and 26 will be the most fun, but Thanksgiving Day looks special too.

Your biggest day will revolve around the new moon of November 29, lighting your tenth house of honors, achievement, and fame. This new moon will take all that you’ve done all year and package it into one big month – December – and show you just how well you have been doing. All new moons open a door, and this one in Sagittarius 8 degrees will bring on a string of events to make you very gratified to have worked so hard all year. At this time, you will see reward.

Jupiter, from your financial eighth house of other people’s money and large one-time-payments of cash, will be friendly to this new moon, so you will again see money from the work you do. Mars will be friendly too, albeit from a slightly distant mathematical degree, and will also have a positive influence on your finances.

However, at the November 30 new moon, your ruler, Neptune, will not be friendly, so the chances of communication being tangled will be strong in the weeks ahead. Sometimes when Neptune is “square” in 90-degree angle, it forces information out in the open that you had not had been told previously. Acting like a lever, the 90-degree square forces truth out suddenly, like a geyser. This truth would involve people you work with closely in your career, both clients and the people who are working with you. You may have assumed everyone was on the same page, but in reality perhaps not. This would be the time to have a meeting to be sure everyone agrees on the goal you have set and are working toward one purpose, not scattering energies in various directions.

So much good news is about to come your way in November, and in December too! As the month begins, foreign people and places are on your mind. You may be traveling or working with people based in international settings on the phone, through email, fax, or other devices without ever needing to leave home. The start of November will also be ideal for setting up your plans to attend college in the next semester, January 2017, or for working in solitude on an important manuscript to be published as a book, magazine, or newspaper story, or on a broadcasting segment to air soon. On November 1, the Sun and Neptune be in divine alignment, helping you even further to generate ideas that everyone will agree is pure genius.

At mid-month, within four days of November 14, the full moon will bring a communications project to a finish. Things will go well, so work toward that date. Also over this full moon, you may want to visit with your sister or brother, and possibly take a little trip over the weekend of November 12-13.

After months of being retrograde – since mid-June – Neptune will finally go direct on November 19, and because Neptune is your ruler, you will see a big blast of energy pushing you forward at long last. Whenever a big planet like Neptune turns direct after months of being retrograde, it leaves clues of what is to come in the two days that surround the turnaround date, in this case, November 19. It would be easy to miss the clue, so pay close attention to all the messages you receive, for those will be clues that will point you in your future direction.

Financially, you should do exceptionally well this month. On November 22, when Mercury will be friendly to Jupiter, you may hear of a sudden influx of cash to soon be directed your way as a bonus, commission, insurance or tax payout, or you may be approved for a business loan or mortgage. You won’t see this coming, which makes the news all the more thrilling.

Again news that money will come to you suddenly could easily happen on November 26 when Uranus in Aries aligns with Mercury. This money would be parsed out in weekly payments, such as the way salary is done, so you may get a raise.

One of the most exciting developments of the month will be when the new moon arrives, November 29, to light your house of honors, awards, and achievement. This new moon can help extend your influence far and wide, and give you the step up in your industry that you’ve long hoped would come.

This new moon, the only one in 2016 in your house of fame, will be in ideal angle to Mars, suggesting VIPs have quietly noticed your work and have been impressed with your performance. You will hear from at least one highly placed individual now. Saturn will be close to the new moon, so you will feel the weight of new responsibilities you may take on now, but in time you will ease into your new role. You have been in a cosmic training course since December 2014, and your testing period is not over – it will continue until December 2017 when Saturn is due to move out of Sagittarius, and the cosmic test you’ve been through will be over. Be glad you have Saturn’s tutoring now – he is working to make a big success of you!

Romantically and socially, you will do fine. The first week of November is likely to be your most social time, for after that, on November 8, Mars will move into Aquarius, and you may prefer to stay in and finish an important project behind closed doors. Still, Venus will be in your friendship sector from November 11 to December 7, so you will always have the option to go out and relax with friends when you want to go. December will be a bigger month for you, for that’s when Mars will enter Pisces for the first time in two years, a huge advantage. You will be making headlines, and be in control. Life will be beautiful, for it will be a time to go after your dearest dreams, professionally and personally.
