🔭 Major Astronomical & Planetary Events: November 3 – 9, 2025
Written by Mia Astrology
This is not an ordinary week — it’s a Full Moon week, and a bright one. The Full Moon in Taurus rises on Wednesday, November 5, blending grounding earth energy with Scorpio’s intensity. The Southern Taurids also peak that same night, so the skies are doubly radiant — the kind of beauty that makes you stop and breathe. Venus, Mars, and Mercury weave a sensual and honest tone through the days, urging emotional truth and soft courage.
🌕 Full Moon in Taurus — November 5, 2025
A Taurus Full Moon is always about embodiment — feeling safe in your skin, your choices, and your worth. But with the Sun opposite in Scorpio, the emotional voltage is strong. This is the culmination of the Scorpio New Moon two weeks ago — a time to see results, release control, and celebrate small victories.
🌟 Good for: grounding, sensual rituals, gratitude work, financial clarity, body nourishment.
⚠️ Avoid: stubbornness or emotional hoarding; flow is your friend now.
💫 Intuitive message: What you have built deserves to be trusted. You don’t need to fight for what’s already yours.
🕯️ Ritual: Write down three things you’ve stabilized this year. Under the moonlight, thank yourself — not for perfection, but for persistence.
🌠 Southern Taurid Meteor Shower — Peak Same Night (Nov 5)
Under the Taurus Full Moon, the Southern Taurids scatter slow, golden streaks across the sky. Even with lunar brightness, the fireballs are visible — a celestial reminder that patience can still sparkle.
🌟 Best seen in: Europe, UK, U.S., and Canada, after midnight.
💫 Intuitive message: When the sky shines twice — moonlight and meteors — it’s the universe whispering, “Stay open to joy, even in the work.”
☿ Mercury Conjunct ♀ Venus — November 8
This soft alignment in Scorpio brings warmth and depth to communication. If the Full Moon stirred emotions, this aspect helps you speak them with tenderness.
🌟 Good for: love letters, honest talks, writing from the heart.
⚠️ Avoid: passive-aggressive tones; clarity is healing now.
💫 Intuitive message: Say what love has taught you, not what pride wants to prove.
💞 Venus Sextile ♂ Mars — November 9
As the week closes, Venus harmonizes with Mars, blending affection and motivation. This is ideal for creativity, reconciliation, and attraction that feels mature and mutual.
🌟 Good for: rekindling passion, designing beauty, moving your body.
⚠️ Avoid: confusing desire with distraction.
💫 Intuitive message: Love that grows with effort is love worth keeping.
