Feeling Restless? Here’s How This Week’s Astrological Events Can Help You Find Balance and Purpose

Weekly Astrology Forecast: November 18 – November 24, 2024
By Storm Cestavani

Hold onto your hats, Storm Chasers! This week, we’ve got a cosmic celebrity stepping onto the scene, and it’s none other than Jupiter, the king of the gods. Picture this planetary powerhouse as your ultimate life coach, pushing you toward growth, big ideas, and maybe even some adventure. But remember, there’s a difference between a productive stretch and a pulled muscle—so, yes, we’ll be balancing that optimism with a dose of practicality. Let’s dive into this week’s astrological agenda!

Monday, November 18: Mercury and Jupiter in Tug-of-War

Monday kicks things off with a bit of a brain-bender, as Mercury in Sagittarius locks horns with Jupiter in Gemini. Think of Mercury as the keeper of your to-do list, while Jupiter’s over there dreaming up your five-year plan. It’s easy to feel pulled in two directions. On the one hand, there’s the urge to get lost in the details—organizing, planning, making lists. On the other hand, Jupiter’s got you thinking big: world travel, that novel you’ve always wanted to write, or, hey, maybe even launching a business.

Here’s the challenge: find a middle ground. Let yourself dream, but ground those big visions with a few actionable steps. Just because you’ve got a big idea doesn’t mean you need to sprint through it. Find balance, take it one step at a time, and try to keep those ambitions manageable.

Tuesday, November 19: Enter Pluto in Aquarius – The Transformation Begins

On Tuesday, Pluto finally waves goodbye to Capricorn and settles into Aquarius for the long haul. Picture Pluto as that friend who drags you to therapy, whether you like it or not. This planetary shift is all about change, growth, and deep transformation. It’s time to drop the labels that no longer fit (who even are you now?), challenge yourself with new knowledge (quantum physics, anyone?), and maybe reevaluate some of those “meh” friendships.

Aquarius energy is progressive, forward-thinking, and ready to shake things up. Pluto’s asking, “Are you?” So think about the next two decades as a time to refresh, renew, and set your sights on a version of you that even your future self will high-five.

Wednesday, November 20: The Moon in Leo – Time to Shine

Wednesday brings us the Moon in Leo, turning the spotlight your way. This transit is about self-expression, so let your inner diva out to play! Creativity, confidence, and maybe a little (or a lot of) flair—this is the energy of the day. If you’ve been itching to start a passion project or step up as the leader you know you are, here’s your moment.

But Leo energy also has a shadow side: the ego. While you’re busy shining, make sure you’re not burning out the people around you. Sprinkle a little kindness and generosity into the mix, and let your inner lion roar in a way that lifts everyone up.

Thursday, November 21: Sun Moves into Sagittarius – Aim High and Dream Big

Say goodbye to the intense depths of Scorpio and hello to the wide-open possibilities of Sagittarius! The Sun’s entry into Sagittarius is like a breath of fresh air, inviting you to dream big and think bigger. Sagittarius isn’t here to dwell on the little stuff; it’s about exploring, learning, and seeking new experiences.

Whether that means taking a literal journey or diving into a new project you’ve been eyeing, now’s the time to go for it. Sag loves freedom, so don’t let yourself get bogged down in the mundane. Just remember to stay honest (even when it’s tempting to sugarcoat things) and keep it real as you venture forth.

But wait, there’s more! The Sun immediately sextiles Pluto in Aquarius, and when these two team up, it’s like you’ve been handed a secret power boost. This is transformative energy without the usual drama—think subtle yet powerful. Tackle life’s challenges strategically, and don’t shy away from those deeper conversations. This transit’s perfect for facing fears or making subtle yet impactful changes.

Friday, November 22: Venus and Saturn – Love Grows Up

Friday brings us a lesson in love and responsibility, as Venus in Capricorn forms a sextile with Saturn in Pisces. This is no fairy-tale romance; it’s love that can go the distance. Venus and Saturn say, “Let’s get serious.” Whether you’re single or partnered, this energy helps ground relationships in reality.

Venus and Saturn together are like the cosmic grown-ups of romance, reminding you that real love isn’t always roses and butterflies—it’s showing up for each other, building trust, and laying a foundation. So, whether you’re considering a relationship or revisiting an existing one, think stability over glitter.

Saturday, November 23 – Sunday, November 24: The Moon in Virgo – Time to Get Organized

This weekend, the Moon moves into Virgo, and suddenly, all those little projects you’ve been ignoring are calling your name. It’s a great time to get organized, tackle clutter, and make sure your routine is actually working for you. Virgo energy loves a good checklist, so use it!

Need to streamline your schedule? Perfect. Thinking of starting a new health routine? Even better. Virgo’s influence is all about productivity and helping others. It’s less about grand gestures and more about the small, practical steps that make life smoother.

So, as the Moon in Virgo wraps up the week, remember that sometimes, the most meaningful transformations happen not with big declarations, but through the little things we do each day.

Wrapping It Up

This week’s astrology invites us to dream big, tackle the details, and make space for transformation. With Jupiter as our guide, there’s an underlying theme of growth, but it’s balanced with practical lessons from Venus, Saturn, and Virgo’s no-nonsense vibe. Whether you’re ready to launch a project, refresh your life, or just organize your closet, there’s something here for everyone.

Keep looking forward, Storm Chasers, and remember to keep it real!
