Expect heat, passion, and empowering momentum this week. Three significant transits are arriving to enliven your emotions and spark enthusiasm for life.
On November 16 the Last Quarter Moon in Leo aligns with Venus shifting into adventurous Sagittarius. Both Leo and Sagittarius are fire signs, bringing warmth, spontaneity, and boldness to the week.
The Last Quarter Moon is a clarifying phase that invites release, self-empowerment, and trust in your intuition. With this Moon in Leo, attention turns to the needs of your inner child—give yourself permission to play, take risks, and seek joy.
That same day, Venus leaves sultry Scorpio for buoyant Sagittarius. Venus in Sagittarius feels spontaneous, optimistic, and sociable, encouraging fresh energy in both friendships and romance. Expect a lighter, more adventurous approach to pleasure and connection.
Then on November 17, Mercury enters Sagittarius, adding curiosity and philosophical flair to how you think and communicate. Mercury in Sagittarius wants to explore big ideas, study new perspectives, and engage in conversations that expand your understanding.
With so much fire in the sky this week, anticipate warm, dynamic energy, stronger instincts, and an urge to act on what excites you.
