Weekly Forecast - November 23 – 30, 2025, Kelly M Beard, 26 November 2025

​11/23 • Sun (energy & identity) ~sextile~ Pluto (rebirth & transformation):

This energy activates a positive & transformative shift, offering you the vitality needed to improve your current situation or resolve long-standing challenges. It is also conducive to purifying your environment, organizing your affairs & addressing any lingering issues that are holding you back or delaying your good. Taking a holistic view, you may identify areas where adjustments are beneficial for the collective well-being. Alternatively, if external tasks feel overwhelming, seize the opportunity for introspection & profound self-reflection. Shallow examinations won’t suffice; delve into the root causes of your current circumstances to discern what needs to be integrated & activated and what needs to be cleared & released in order to align with your current goals and new, personal values.

11/24 • Mercury Rx (ideas & thoughts) ~conjunct~ Venus (values & priorities):

This energy invites you to perceive the underlying harmony or cohesive thread weaving through the tapestry of your life, encompassing its diverse experiences across time. It heralds a fresh perspective on communication, self-expression, and the worth of your ideas, thoughts, concepts & creative projects. You may find yourself articulating long-held ideas with newfound clarity, perhaps even expressing affection or emotions in profound ways. It is a fertile period for your Inner Artist, where creativity flows unbounded, allowing for innovative expressions that you have yet to explore. Embrace the freedom of imagination, exploring ideas without fixating on outcomes. While delving into these connections & revelations, resist the urge to over-analyze; instead, relish the depth that they offer, fostering personal growth and a deeper comprehension of life’s unfolding magic customized for your own level of consciousness. Recognize the purpose within past challenges and acknowledge your journey toward personal self-mastery. Embrace this moment to cultivate fresh thought patterns that imbue your life with greater beauty and a deeper sense of peace & harmony.

11/26 • Venus (community & kinship) ~trine~ Jupiter (expansion & learning):

This energy is generally delightful, albeit fleeting. It offers an excellent opportunity to engage in social activities and relish relaxed, easy-going moments without any pressure. It might incline you towards idleness or indulgence, particularly if these tendencies already exist within you. However, if you are accustomed to a hectic pace, this energy permits a pause—a chance to unwind without the usual pressure to constantly produce results. Take this time to savor life’s pleasures, whether by indulging in leisurely activities or reflecting on your personal achievements, by acknowledging your own journey’s milestones. It is an auspicious period for travel, vacations or brief getaways. This energy often brings forth earned blessings, prompting gratitude towards the forces that guided you to this juncture in your life.

11/26 • Venus (values & priorities) ~trine~ Saturn (stability & endurance):

During this activation, an effortless & harmonious energy prevails, offering you a fertile ground to conscientiously engage with, which can lead to remarkable & tangible outcomes. It is an opportune moment to crystallize your vision & clarify your definitions within the realm of relationships, for your values & priorities have recently evolved. Drawing from your past positive choices & endeavors, you can anticipate positive benefits & well-deserved rewards heading your way. If you have side-stepped your responsibilities in any relationships, be they public or private, this energy provides a chance to realign, offering a smoother course, unlike the challenges typically associated with Saturn’s influence. Practicality regarding your limitations and a realistic evaluation of others’ contributions are keys to leveraging this energy. It supports discussions aimed at progress, growth or elevating to a higher collective level, which can also foster teamwork and a sense of kinship. Engaging in strategic planning for the future, delineating a vision that safeguards & nurtures all involved and honoring the vital essence of life pulsating through these interactions will find profound support through this harmonious alignment. Venus embodies the energies of love, money & magnetics, and Saturn advocates for an objective and somewhat conservative approach to both your relationships & finances. Given this fusion of potent energies, I recommend outlining realistic relationship or financial goals spanning the next 3-6-9-12 months as a guiding compass for this time.

11/27 • Saturn Direct 25* PISCES (until 2.13.2026):

We are in an unprecedented Seed Time for our personal, social & collective lives. Think of Saturn as a Teacher/Guide. Think of Aries thru Pisces as the Lessons that we all have to learn and just like any other education, some things will be naturally easier & naturally harder, according to your individual blueprint & disposition. During PISCES, the Lessons have to do with surrender, integration & good boundaries. We are completing a 30-year cycle of Reality & Purpose. Personally, our Roles & Responsibilities have run a full cycle and should be considered for renewal at this time. Imagine that this is the time to *incubate* the New Vision that you will act on and activate in literal terms when Saturn permanently into Aries in Feb 2026, so we want to prepare consciously.

On the positive side, we can harness our imaginations to think differently and dream bigger so that we are calling in a New Vision for Self & Humanity, as well as a deeper connection to and reverence for the mystery of life on Earth. We are being called to more awareness & care of our physical bodies, as well as improved spiritual practices & deepened dedication to honoring being a Spirit in Human Form. We have officially reset our personal boundaries in social & collective settings over the last 2-3 years, so now we can reclaim our power to control the input of information or images into our consciousness, being more discerning & creative, rather than being lazy & accepting things at face-value.

On the negative side, the Shadow expression of this energy leads to literal insanity, a disconnect from reality because it is too harsh, upsetting or counter to the vision in our minds. We can lose ourselves in the overwhelm of societal & collective crumbling and go down a dark tunnel of victimhood, martyrdom & judgement.

When Retrograde, we get to re-dream our reality in some way, annually. Tune-in to the Higher Self and ask for concrete directions on how to proceed. This means we may have to tweak our spiritual practices during this time to be more effective & meaningful. It’s definitely a time to heal & integrate anything blocking or delaying your results & rewards. Now that it is going Direct, we will have an opportunity to move things around to accommodate the evolved vision for the year. This is the best time to reflect on the Light & Shadow expression and note your own evolution over the last 2-3 years.

11/29 • Venus (values & priorities) ~oppose~ Uranus (freedom & liberation):

When Uranus enters the picture, it becomes the wild card, making it quite the challenge to foresee how things will actually unfold. Presently, there is a dynamic tension between what you hold as apparent, common values and the expression of your distinct, individual self. Venus, representing relationships, may usher in the beginning of an unconventional relationship or unveil something extraordinary within an established one. This isn’t about categorizing it as “good” or “bad” but rather acknowledging an unforeseeable shift or sudden realization, calling for compromise & integration. This energy harmonizes beautifully when your personal truth & individual values align. However, if they are not in-sync, it tends to be immensely disruptive. Being open, flexible, and seeking a win-win scenario for all involved is crucial amidst this unfolding. Remember, navigating this period requires openness, adaptability & a commitment to finding solutions that honor everyone’s well-being.

11/29 • Mercury Direct 20* SCORPIO (until Dec 11th):

Mercury has been swimming in Scorpio’s deep waters, stirring the cauldron of your mind, asking you to face the truth of how you think, communicate & express your authentic voice. This is not surface-level chatter—this is a soul-level inquiry. Hopefully, you have been asking the deeper questions and processing your life on deeper, more soulful levels. The Shadow Work you have done has cleared the darkness from your thoughts and allowed you to see other potentials & possibilities so, as it moves back through Scorpio & Sag, you will activate more creativity & vision for the future.

Remember, this whole extended stay in Scorpio/Sag is facilitating and upgrade to your ideas, thinking & concepts in those Areas of Life (Houses). So it seems that if we can recalibrate our ideas & thinking in the Sag Dept, then the ideas & thinking in the Scorpio Dept will go that much better. In other words, if you can shift what you believe to be true or possible, then you can conceive new ideas or increase the beauty & value of the ideas you are working on, going forward. Either way, it is a reconnection with your Soul & Spirit and the ideas that that part of you wants to pursue come the new year will require that you shift your ideas, thinking & beliefs to accommodate emerging power, potent creativity & new consciousness.

11/30 • Venus (values & priorities) ~trine~ Neptune (faith & spirituality):

This prevailing energy warmly supports the act of weaving your world through the power of dreams! Allow your imagination the freedom to roam, leading you to or through typically uncharted territories. Engage in playful contemplation of “what-if” scenarios—pondering what would unfold if all your material needs & desires were effortlessly met. Envision how you would dedicate your time, energy & resources under such abundant circumstances. You might find yourself deeply empathic & attuned to the experiences of others during this period, however, it is vital to maintain healthy boundaries amidst this empathic connection. Neptune’s influence can evoke profound spiritual encounters with fellow human beings—be they friends, family or lovers. Yet, time is the only true storyteller, unraveling whether Neptune is playing whimsical tricks or if indeed, a genuine spiritual connection is in play. Stay grounded as you navigate these mystical waters, honoring your intuition while remaining open to the unfolding truths before you.

11/30 • Venus Enters SAGITTARIUS (until Dec 24th):

When Venus is in Sag, we want to expand our relationships & improve our lives in some way. You start to recognize which exchanges with others energize you versus the ones that drains you, and subsequently, some partnerships may see a cooling-off period where one or both parties get in touch with what they really believe to be true or possible and move from there. The idea is to be optimistic, looking for opportunities even in choices & changes that are uncomfortable or challenging. This is the time to infuse your values & priorities with some diversity – shake it up, expand in some way that allows your creativity to flow in new ways or through new mediums. Edit or develop the Story you are telling with your current values & priorities and notice where you could be more imaginative & authentic and thereby capable of telling a much more interesting Story if you allow your own Truth to guide you at this time. Think bigger! Then begin the steps toward manifesting a Higher Vision of how you relate with others going forward.
