Weekly Astrology Forecast ⭐ Nov 11th - Nov 17th
🗓️ Main Vibe for the Week Ahead
Since last week’s election results here in the U.S., I’ll admit, my thoughts and emotions have been all over the place. As an astrologer, part of my job is to detach from personal biases, to zoom out and see the larger picture. But…I’m also human—a passionate person with my own set of personal values —and it’s hard to ignore the shockwaves that come when more than half the country chooses not even a different path - but a completely opposing one. Even though I knew it was a strong possibility, it still shook me to my core, just as strongly as it did back in 2016.
Regardless of the weight & ramifications of this result, I know I have it within me to direct my anger towards what can be productive. I refuse to let “Whatever the hell happened last week” define my future. There’s a quiet yet steady spirit of defiance within me that is willful and will keep me going through the choices I make in my day to day actions.
But I want to pause and ask: how are you feeling?
Whether you’re here in the U.S. or watching from another part of the world, I imagine these recent events might have stirred something deep within you, too. Maybe it’s exhaustion, frustration, or even disbelief.
Perhaps you feel a mix of emotions—all tangled together. Whatever is coming up, know that it’s valid. In times like these, our hearts are stretched, and we’re asked to hold both the heavy and the hopeful. We’re all finding our way through this in our own unique way, and you are not alone.
I also hope you find small pockets of joy in your immediate environment. Sometimes, grounding ourselves in the simplest things—moments of peace, connection, or beauty—can provide a foundation from which we can take actions forward with strength, not reactive fear.
This week’s astrology, fittingly, invites us to find that grounding and to reflect on what true security means, especially when it feels as though the world around us is shifting. As we build toward the Full Moon in Taurus on Friday the 15th, conjunct with the electrifying energy of Uranus, we’re being asked to examine where we stand—financially, physically, emotionally—and to consider:
What truly sustains us? What keeps us rooted, even when the ground feels unsteady?
Uranus in conjunction with this Full Moon brings an element of the unexpected, urging us to confront what stability looks like when familiar structures begin to shake. Taurus teaches us resilience, reminding us that regardless of the external, we have the capacity to build a foundation within that keeps us steady. This Full Moon shines a light on how we can align our resources—our time, energy, and money—with what truly matters, not just what is popular or dictated by external forces.
And, as if that weren’t enough, Saturn stations direct on the same day as the Full Moon, offering us a powerful moment to take stock of our commitments, our structures, and the paths we’re building. If you want to do a self-review on it’s past retrograde cycle that started June 29th of this year, and what you’ve overcome since then - you can read the separate post here:

Saturn’s energy is about responsibility and intention; it asks us to consider what we are willing to build and sustain. You don’t have to wait for things to change on their own; it’s about showing up and discovering creative solutions to build a life in alignment with your personal values, one step at a time. The world may not change overnight, but we can change how we show up each day. Every action, every choice, can be a declaration, a ripple effect of who we are and what we stand for.
So, this week, lean into Taurus’s strength. And with Venus also ingress into Capricorn to start this week, recommit to your values, strengthen the relationships that are worthy of your attention & presence.
Reassess what makes you feel secure—not just in the world, but within yourself. Let the fire of your integrity burn brighter, anchoring you as the world around you turns. Together, let’s hold onto the certainty that no matter the challenges, we will keep moving forward. We will keep going.
