November 2025 Wrap Up
Stardrops November 23 2025
PDF
Hello friends, a quick planetary update to wrap up our recent Mercury retro and more. The main themes are:
- Challenges presented to us in order o reach an outcome. For some, challenges occur from learning of some news that needs to be handled, which might be hard. Something we were not so aware of before. Mid to end of November. There could be an incident where you are being stretched to take care of something yet you feel resistance. It began last week yet may continue to the end of November. This could have caused a separation from others. It can break up a relationship or separate ourselves from another place, location such as a trip or a break from the routine. Part of this cycle might feel emotionally challenging.
- A revelation of some sort could come to you in this last half of November. A conversation, discussion, or private realization may happen which feels complete, feels like the next step one should take. Purchases, acquisitions, projects can bring a sense of completion- ideal outcomes from otherwise testy situations. Productive conversations, meetings and plans can develop under this cycle. These two cycles do not seem to be merging or influenced by each other.
Because we are still in the last vestiges of Saturn and Neptune in Pisces for one last time – (ending January 26 to February 13th) everything still continues to feel a bit vague and fuzzy, like walking through a dream. But the positive energies of this last bit of Mercury retro has us coming to a conclusion, a realization of the New Way to walk.
It’s handed to us and will work, yet has several components, steps to implement in order to establish this positive end goal. This is because it is wrapping up at the end of November in the zodiac sign, Scorpio. (also reflected in our latest November 20 New Moon theme). Either way, we are turning around towards a new end goal, physically and literally or in our vision and mind at this point. Can you relate to any of these new energies happening to you recently?
Planetary Cycles you will want to know during the last two weeks of November 2025 are the following:
November 19 – 25th, 2025 …. Mercury continues retrograde at 29* – 21* in Scorpio trine Neptune, Saturn, Jupiter, and conjoin Sun and Venus. Mercury also still in opposition to Uranus.
Table Below:
We have been positive Mercury energies yet as said above, some challenging ones. Either way, for the past few Stardrops regarding Mercury, it has all been about expanding our awareness of something which must be incorporated into our thinking, our personal and global awareness. Something we did not consider before. Expansion in some way.
The expansion impacts our belief of what is possible for us to do and reach.
This Month of November, may have brought important issues into view for us to finally be aware of and improve upon something. Mercury retro in Sagittarius/Scorpio can inspire all these things!
October 28 – December 10 (strongest October 28-30; November 18-20; December 9-11)
The challenging Mercury energy (Uranus oppose Mercury retro/direct) is a separating out and exposure of a problem. There could be a sudden unexpected situation which must be finally addressed. It sharpens our view of reality, the truth of particular situations which come to a head. The cycle could be for some mild, for others, more serious.
November 11 – 26 We are also in a conjunction period up to the 25th of November, with Venus, Mars mildly prompting social connection, invitations, closeness and love. It could inspire conscious action taken towards acts of kindness, support, helpfulness – possibly a resolution, positive insights for making important decisions in one’s life, productivity, progress and plans implemented, generosity, gratitude, reaching out and increasing the love.
This Mercury cycle can help us be in the flame of the heart, being heart – centered right now, supporting others and evolving to a deeper level of useful resourceful problem solving for ourselves, and among others especially in crisis.
All of these Mercury cycles have been active the end of October – December 14, 2025.
Mercury will leave retrograde on November 30 in the early morning, in the western hemisphere. (North/South America zone) Late November 29 into early morning, Central Europe time.
November 30 late through December 1, Asian/Australia/NewZealand time zones.
December 10-12, Mercury direct will once more, oppose Uranus, the separating cycle which is the last moment or dealing with unexpected challenges.
It could just be a need to separate ourselves from a normal routine, and change our circumstances somehow. It may be turning us towards a new chapter in our lives, work or path. Just like November 12 – 22, peaking exact on November 19 – 24, it is the final opposition to become more astute regarding challenging circumstances with others, and attempt to mend and solve these issues. Since October, Mercury has been working on us quietly (or openly) to push us into a new way. December it is final and has done its job. time to reflect how your mind has changed about something since the end of October!
Now, let’s move onto other planetary energies:
The New Moon October 20th has mirrored the exact same theme as the Mercury Retro/Direct. However, it is emphasizing the completion and acceptance of this New Way or insight we now need to follow. It will push us for two weeks to change our past habits, and implement a harder more challenging walk we must take. It is worth it! Because these planets (see below in Scorpio on the left side of the wheel) are all opposing Uranus, just like the Mercury oppose Uranus separating energy we spoke of above, and they are all in Scorpio, the challenge is complicated and may not see immediate results right way. But, must be walked, incorporated into our new goals, our new way of living. It is rejuvenating in the long run, and might also even bless others if we now move strongly towards this new way. That’s the New Moon energy in a quick analysis, which is already in play right now.
November 19-20 Sun oppose Uranus (Enhancing and joined by Mercury retro oppose Uranus discussed above)
As of the date of this release, this energy has already happened, and I witnessed some challenging crisis erupt – globally and personally, with people exiting, resigning, leaving or checking out. Again, it was a separating theme.
This cycle simply brings to light much more precisely what needs to change – highlights an awareness, a sharper targeting of issues which now needs to be addressed. How you personally are impacted. It is as if the Sun makes it now personal. What does this mean for you? It has the power to take upon ourselves, the creative will and determination to get very focused, and solve a problem, and how to move forward in this new path, new insight which has enhanced your thinking.
November 20-22 Sun trine Neptune (Sun at 29* Scorpio, trine Neptune at 29* Pisces)
This cycle brings us to a sharpened closure of spiritual/psychological healing, resolve, understanding along with much compassion and sense of completion of something. It is past now, but in reflection, this cycle also, has been running in the background since end of November from the Mercury trine Neptune. It is like a grace and higher wisdom and love has been guiding us all along.
November 22 to December 20 The Sun moves into Sagittarius
This marks a period of time for ethical expansive ideas to be put into motion. To think bigger than normal. It is a positive cycle for some, for physical exercise, sports, outdoor activities, or travel. It can heighten spiritual insights and study.
November 23-25 Sun and Mercury sextiles Pluto A positive few days for cooperation from official people, professionals, qualified individuals. A positive time for expecting important people in your life to get along with each other. A willingness to share advice, information, share and play fair. The entire set of dates where a greater openness for helpfulness and receiving support and help would be October 30, November 6, November 17, November 23, Dec 2, Dec 13. It is positive for meetings, collaborations of all kinds, working successfully on specific complicated projects and seeing it through. Connecting with others who can truly get a job done well.
November 23-26 Mars in Sagittarius squares Nodes
Take care of your money. Some challenges over expenses. Sometimes the nodal squares bring frustrations over conflict with other’s preferences, opinions. Social challenges, friendship challenges. Expenses could seem tight, some hesitation over money, budget and how to pay for certain necessary things.
November 25-26 Mars inconjuncts Hades at 15* Cancer
A mild glitch could occur with incongruencies between one’s drive, one’s plans messing up the day. Mars exerts much energy, physical, emotional to overcome and get through our day, yet something is looming over us potentially interfering. A slight glitchy day with a sense of being a bit out of sorts in some way.
November 29 – 30 Venus opposes Uranus You might find yourself listening to another’s story and need to be objective, open. Typically, Uranus oppose Venus is a more stand offish energy – but it can clarity issues, bring things to light and definitely reveal the truth about things. Patience is required.
Venus is our heart, feelings, our values and love yet Venus in an opposition, can mean some area of our life might feel challenged with our relationships with others, or social stresses. Is it our attitude? Or possibly anothers’ attitude and position they take? Or a lack of honesty and depth in themselves? Some might experience a problem with others, where they just don’t feel valued by another. There can be some degree of personal emotional separation, self protection, or leaving someone. It provides stronger awareness of the contrast between what you feel is right for you, what you value, where you stand on things, versus what matters to others, what their obvious priorities are. Again, this may have already been building in some form for a while, but this week, it is peaking for resolution.
Jupiter in Cancer trine Saturn in Pisces October 30 – December 6, 2025 closest on Oct 30, and Dec 6.
This cycle is strong and even though ends on December 6, will help us succeed for weeks ahead in our new direction.
A welcome productive period for reaching idealistic dreams, as if we are getting closer and closer to the understanding of how we are swimming in a world of electrons, photons, plasma and mind/body/emotion intention – Translate! Our intuitive natures are becoming stronger. Our optimistic plans can be realized if we put it into physical action plans. We are in a higher state of recognizing the big picture and should trust this way.
Saturn in Pisces supports the Jupiter in Cancer’s need for more security, expansion, some recognition, support and potentially positive financial decisions, future good fortune by taking positive action now. Some increase in, emotional love, kindness, financial opportunities and caring about the family.
It is positive for planning domestic, things, all things related to family and home…. real estate progress. and business expansion.
It’s also a time where we are naturally desiring to not sell out or compromising on what one would really desire, need and expect in their lives.
It combines the practicality and realistic functionality of Saturn’s standards and goals, along with the need for Jupiter in Cancers’ emotional concerns for family happiness, money, harmony, financial security and abundance. Whether you are in a challenging situation, or a positive one – Saturn trine Jupiter, helps you figure out the next step you need to take. It supports concrete realistic actions, and grounds you, inspires the practical and make the best of the situation.
November 18-28 exact on November 30 Uranus in Taurus sextile Neptune in Pisces
This cycle is also VERY STRONG, and is going on for quite a while. It started on August 29 2025. It has been positively influencing the planet earth from August through November 21 2025, yet doesn’t just end on the 21st, but continues it’s influence for a period of time. Personally, it can bring revelations and unexpected insights for the new plans in your life to be somehow realized and supported by a higher invisible force. (Neptune)..
As I step back and review these new themes from October through December, peaking right now, I realize, as said in the past two Stardrops, we truly are stepping through a transitional dimension or frequency – into a new world. It might appear imperceptible, yet is happening.
We are entering a higher form of clarity, a new path, a new way of seeing ourselves. Life is now different from how it was before the past month. New values, new challenges. Something has definitely changed, either literally or within.
This is an incredibly strong cycle to concentrate upon one thing you desire to change and bring into your life, feel and experience the potential of this thing coming into view, and confirm outloud with Affirmations to expect this project or situation to breakthrough, for example, and believe the Universe, the All That Is, desires your fulfillment. This would be one example of using this period for your benefit.
AFFIRMATION
“I AM trusting in the great Divine Love within me, to support, guide and bring complete fulfillment for me and all Divine Souls, for our New Path we now walk.”
Visualizing and recognizing a thing you want to bring about – and feel the love, support and potential universe generosity of the success of this thing – and discover more and more as the weeks go by, how to make this come true!
Globally, Uranus and Neptune together could also inspire cooperation between nations, leaders, financial solutions, advanced future breakthroughs with currency, economy, value of money – exchange agreements, cooperative meetings and agreements involving technology, advanced science, land/territory negotiations etc…
- June 24 -2026 – Aug 7 2026,
- Returns on December 22 2026 -to February 14, 2027,
- Returning again on May 8 2027 – June 29 2027;
- February 2028 – May 13, 2028.
- Started officially August 2, 2025 up to May 13, 2028.
Because we are still in a messy period of Earth’s history of separating out from the dark, life can continue as a great challenge, personally and globally. Yet, these planetary influences reveal we are in an incredible opportunity to combine skills, resources and higher minded abilities among progressive people, to bring about great things for yourself, your projects, business, teams and communities, and humanity.
