November 20th brings the most powerful new moon of 2025—deep secrets will be revealed.
Plus: a rare grand water trine, signs pointing to a celebrity death, and major UFO disclosure developments as scientists confirm mysterious objects orbited Earth before we launched anything into space.
This month's astrology is unlike anything we've seen in years. A grand water trine involving Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune creates flowing energy for profound emotional healing—but also brings pressure as past wounds surface.
Mercury stations retrograde in Sagittarius (the last fire sign retrograde until 2031), Mars enters Sagittarius bringing volatile energy to the US, and Venus squares Pluto, testing our closest relationships.
But the centerpiece is November 20th's Scorpio new moon—conjunct Mercury's cazimi, opposing Uranus, and aspecting ALL the outer planets. This lunation promises breakthrough moments, shocking revelations, and transformations that will ripple forward for months.
I'm also tracking the November 5th Taurus full moon, which shows remarkable activation of death-related asteroids. A famous person—likely a woman or Venusian figure—may pass during this lunation.
Plus: Peer-reviewed research now suggests a network of unidentified objects orbited Earth in the 1950s, with correlations to both UFO sightings and nuclear tests. The Uranus-Neptune sextile (exact again on Nov 20) continues pushing disclosure forward.
We may well be moving closer to proof of the existence of UFOs in orbit around the Earth.
This full moon could bring a famous person's passing.
I could see this being a moment where deep secrets are revealed.
It really looks to me like they're trying to harness the astrology
in a bid to undermine and maybe even eventually topple Donald Trump.
Hello friends and welcome to this forecast episode for November 2025.
This month promises some powerful energies flowing through the water signs
that could lead to profound emotional healing both for individuals and for the collective.
I'm your host Dan Waits, this is World Astrology Report and let's get into it.
Last month Pluto stationed direct in Aquarius for the first time this cycle on October the 14th.
Pluto is also out of bounds at the moment and this is a time when its energies are
to be felt even more strongly than usual and in Aquarius it's bringing revolutionary energy
which we're seeing right now across the world in the form of what's being called the Gen Z
uprising, a wave of protests by dissatisfied young people across the planet.
In recent weeks we've seen protests in Indonesia, the Philippines,
Kenya and Peru. Governments have been toppled in Nepal and Madagascar
and protesters are attempting to do the same to the government of Morocco right now.
Most of these countries have young populations and we're seeing young adults reacting to high
unemployment and corruption and nepotism all over the place and they're using technology to organize
which is Aquarian. Now again Pluto stationed direct in the middle of October and on October
the 18th liberal opponents of the Trump administration staged nationwide protests
in the US under the banner of no kings. It's getting really hard to avoid the conclusion
that this movement is using astrology and is well aware of the history of Pluto in Aquarius
in particular because during the last Pluto in Aquarius transit America rebelled successfully
against the British monarchy and the French monarchy was guillotined. Donald Trump's Leo
ascendant is conjunct the fixed star Regulus which also has regal connotations and this protest was
scheduled right about the time that Pluto was stationing direct for the first time this cycle
in Aquarius. So it really looks to me like they're trying to harness the astrology
in a bid to undermine and maybe even eventually topple Donald Trump. Now as all viewers of this
channel know very well I'm also expecting revelations about the UFO phenomenon in the
next few years and particularly between now and 2027. Right now Uranus and Neptune have reached
the sextile phase of their 170-odd year synodic cycle and they'll form five exact sextiles between
2025 and 2027. This cycle is related to quote-unquote disclosure or at least much more
coming out about UFOs. At the start of the cycle in 1993 Stephen Greer launched the Disclosure
Project which brought out whistleblowers to testify about government projects about UFOs.
So this theme is baked into this Uranus-Neptune cycle. Now these two planets made their first
exact sextile aspect at the end of August and they'll form their second exact sextile on November
the 20th this month and there's been some really interesting news that's just come out. In late
July as Uranus and Neptune approached their first exact sextile the academic and astronomer Beatrice
Villarroel and her team released a paper on research they performed analyzing old photographs
of the sky before the launch of Sputnik in 1957 and they identified dozens if not hundreds of what
they call transients. Lights that were present in one picture but not before or after and they've
suggested that this was a network of objects in orbit around the earth before we ever launched
anything in the sky. What's more they established statistically significant correlations between
the appearance of these lights with both UFO flaps and nuclear tests. Now the big news in
late October is that this paper has just passed peer review meaning that other scholars believe
its methodology was sound and that's a big deal. We may well be moving closer to proof of the
existence of UFOs in orbit around the earth and this is proof that should be taken seriously by
the scientific establishment. I'm also paying close attention to 3i Atlas the third ever
interstellar object that's hurtling through our solar system as we speak. People continue to say
crazy stuff about this object and it's hard to know what to believe about it. I think that at
the very minimum it's symbolic of widening human consciousness and awareness of our place in the
cosmic neighborhood but it could be even more than that. Some people are claiming it's a conscious
entity of some kind or carrying life on it. In the bonus section of this video available for members
of World Astrology Report whether on YouTube or at my website we look at 3i Atlas in more depth.
We look at its discovery chart, its perihelion chart and try to find clues as to what it may
really be about. All right that's it for now let's get into the forecasting part of this video.
If you're enjoying this video so far please do me a favor and click the like button down there
to register your support for the channel and do subscribe and activate notifications if you feel
so inclined. Thanks. There are some powerful energies coursing through the water signs
right now and they'll continue to do so through most of the month of November. Expansive Jupiter
the planet of faith wisdom and wealth has been transiting through the cardinal water sign of
Cancer since May. At the start of September Saturn retrograded back into Pisces and on October the
25th Neptune also moved back into that sign. So Saturn and Neptune are now making their final
moves through Pisces the last sign of the zodiac. That means we're seeing a close trine a harmonious
120 degree aspect between Jupiter in Cancer and Saturn and Neptune in Pisces right now.
There are also planets moving through the other water sign Scorpio trining both Jupiter and Saturn
and so they're forming what we call a grand trine with those planets. The grand trine comes when we
see planets in the three signs of the same element. These are powerful flowing aspects. Things happen
quickly and easily when planets are in these configurations. And we'll begin the month with
Mars in this grand trine although it's already perfected it in the last few days of October.
Now water signs relate to the bonds between human beings, feelings, emotions. They're also
spiritually oriented signs. This configuration involves a trine between Jupiter and Neptune.
Normally that would signify great optimism and spiritual inspiration almost to the point of being
out of touch with reality but Neptune is with Saturn which grounds things and adds more pessimism
to the picture. Saturn and Neptune is bringing a general sense of disillusion perhaps sometimes
even hopelessness right now. And with the trine between Jupiter and those planets it's almost like
Jupiter in Cancer is making us want to retreat to what is homely and comfortable and protected
because of the general sense of disillusion that Saturn-Neptune is bringing to the picture.
But generally with all this flowing water activation this could be a time to do some
great healing. So pay attention to feelings, dreams, intuition and strive to connect deeply
with those you love. With Saturn heavily implicated here we could find that emotional
wounds from the past are being dredged up at various times over the course of the month.
From a mundane perspective we can also think about the synodic cycle of Jupiter and Saturn here
because they're close to forming an exact trine and this marks a major moment in their cycle.
On November the 11th Jupiter will station retrograde at 25 degrees and nine minutes of
Cancer. Saturn will be at 25 Pisces and 23 minutes and they'll get to within about 10 arc minutes
from an exact trine through the middle days of November. But they won't actually complete that
trine. That doesn't happen until August the 31st of 2026. So we need to look back through the
synodic cycle of these planets which began with their conjunction on the winter solstice of 2020
in the first degree of Aquarius. Around that time the first COVID jabs were coming out. One of the
themes of this Jupiter Saturn cycle is the building of digital systems to control human populations
and their movements at a global scale and to make sure they're up to date with the latest approved
high-tech medical products in their bloodstreams. You get the feeling it's a bit like managing a
herd of animals. Well I suspect that that's how the people driving this from the very top ultimately
see it. Now Jupiter and Saturn made three squares over the past year and we've seen governments
trying to push through parts of this system. Although they've also been encountering resistance.
I'm thinking here of the global pandemic treaty which was pushed by the World Health Organization.
It hasn't ended up being as empowering for the WHO as that organization would have liked. In these
last weeks and months of 2025 look out for major developments around these themes and expect to see
things being pushed through without as much resistance as before. Given that all this is
happening in water signs I could see there being major announcements related to the themes of
travel and borders and security and systems that attempt to regulate those things using biometrics.
That's because Saturn in the oceanic sign of Pisces brings restrictions and systemization of
things that flow globally. Jupiter in Cancer has to do with themes like protecting the homeland.
And we're already seeing examples of what I'm talking about coming out right now. When I was
researching this video I googled biometric travel and the first story that came up was titled
flyers once viewed airport biometrics with fear and skepticism now they prefer it. You can really
feel the easy trine energy in those words. Now there are some particular times in the month that
will activate this grand trine. Around November the 17th the Sun forms a grand trine with Jupiter
and Saturn at 25 Scorpio. Jupiter is at its most positive by trine and it's in its home sign of
Cancer so this is about as positive an influence as you can find in astrology. The Sun illuminates
and shines the light of consciousness on things. Here it will be in the deep penetrative martial
realm of Scorpio. I think this will be a good time to envision what you truly desire. This is the
domain of Scorpio and it will also probably be a good moment for solar themes generally like
asserting authority and receiving recognition. Now towards the end of the month we'll see more
activation of this grand trine on November the 28th. Saturn will station direct in Pisces for
the last time this cycle. It'll station at 25 degrees and nine minutes of that sign so we can
expect a surge in Saturnian energy in the second half of the month. Pisces is the oceanic realm of
mysticism, intoxication and martyrdom. Saturn in Pisces is about building structures and
imposing limits and rules in watery free-flowing places where those things don't take so well. I
think this final Saturn station will probably round off Saturn's transit through Pisces
in a fairly positive fashion because of the support it's getting from Jupiter from Cancer.
So it could be that some kind of work pays off around that time and finally reaches completion
or perhaps a difficult situation gets some kind of resolution or bow tied on it before Saturn
leaves Pisces for good this cycle. I just want to take a moment to let you know that I've opened up

November the 4th Mars will leave its home sign of Scorpio and enter Jupiter's mutable fire sign
of Sagittarius. Mars represents the principle of action taken to fulfill desire. That's why it's
also the planet of conflict which is driven by conflicting desires and interests. It's been in
sign of Scorpio since September the 22nd where it's powerful, where it's a real force for getting
things done and fulfilling desire. You may have noticed that there's been some growth or achievement
in the part of your life represented by Scorpio in your natal chart. Sagittarius is the archer.
All Jupiterian signs are concerned with gnosis, knowledge of the true state of things. And
Sagittarius acquires this through its actions by heading out into the world and exploring and
soaking up the truth almost by osmosis. Mars in Sagittarius takes action in line with Jupiterian
vision principle and faith. It's bold and optimistic and looks to the future to the
realization of big dreams. It can also take big risks fueled by that Sagittarius optimism.
Of course risks can pay off sometimes. Sometimes not so much. The transit of Mars through Sagittarius
will bring that risk-taking adventurous dynamic to the part of your life represented by the
Sagittarius whole sign house. And the coming transit of Mars through Sagittarius might start
with something of a bang because as soon as it ingresses into the sign it forms an opposition
with Uranus, the planet of surprise, shocks and sudden inspiration. So this looks like a volatile
moment. A Mars-Uranus opposition can bring events with a shocking or surprising or fast-acting feel
to them. It can bring volatile encounters with unusual characters that don't go the way you might
expect. So people with placements in the earliest degrees of the mutable signs might want to be ready
for that. Sagittarius is the rising sign of the U.S. at least according to the Sibley chart that many
astrologers use including myself. And so Mars in Sagittarius is a time when we can expect the U.S.
to be more assertive or aggressive on the world stage than usual. For example during the last
Mars in Sagittarius transit almost two years ago on December the 23rd 2023 the U.S. announced
Operation Prosperity Guardian, a multinational coalition of nations formed to respond to Hootie
attacks in the Red Sea. So watch the U.S. between November 4 and December the 15th for more martial
activity. I'm thinking we could see Trump's odd conflict with Venezuela heating up. The September
22nd 1830 chart of Venezuela has a Sagittarius moon suggesting the country may end up in harm's
way with Mars in that sign. Now we can also look to the geodetic map to understand the places that
might get more heat applied to them as Mars moves through Sagittarius. The Scorpio zone of the map
is this one which covers the very far northwest of the U.S. and Canada and part of Alaska. Right now
there's a kerfuffle about Donald Trump potentially deploying federal troops to San Francisco that
perfectly fits the symbolism of Mars the war planet acting in the Scorpio geodetic zone. When Mars
moves into Sagittarius other places will be triggered. The action will move to the east.
Sagittarius represents the heartland of the U.S. and Mexico. I'd watch relations between those
countries over this period and now let's change tack. On November the 5th we'll see this year's
Taurus full moon. On November the 5th we'll see a full moon at 13 degrees of Taurus. This is a moment
of culmination and a revelation, a turning point related to Taurus matters. Taurus is the sign of
material bounty and security. It's a sign that has to do with harvesting and enjoying the bounty of
the world with the regular rhythms of work and play that constitute a life lived well. This is an
interesting full moon one that seems to me to contain some contradictions. On the one hand the
moon isn't forming any close aspects besides the sun which of course it's always in opposition with
at a full moon. The moon's ruler Venus is in her home sign of Libra so she's doing rather well. On
the surface of things you'd think this moon could be pretty pleasant. A moment with the feel of
harvesting a bounty or reaping material rewards. But at the same time Mars is the ruler of the
Scorpio sun in this lunation and Mars is in a tight opposition with Uranus which we already
discussed. So that's an explosive combination and it's also baked into the dynamic of this moment
and moon. So it's almost like there's a contrast here between material security on the one hand
and then a sense of fast moving events and conflict on the other. And one more thing, I've
been inspired by my recent interview with Laurie Lothian to play more with asteroids. Now the
asteroids Grieve, Memoria, Requiem and Libertina are sent to indicate the deaths of famous people
and funerals and they seem strongly activated by this full moon. Memoria is one degree from the sun,
Requiem is closely opposing Saturn within one degree, Grieve is squaring Pluto and Libertina
is just one single arc minute from Venus in Libra, the ruler of the lunation. So I'm thinking this
full moon could bring a famous person's passing. It could be a Venusian figure, perhaps a woman,
someone known for their beauty or femininity or alternatively a person with prominence in society
or the arts. All right let's keep pushing through November. Venus is going to run into some trouble
early in the month. On November the 6th Venus will leave her home sign of Libra and enter the
strategic, desire-focused sign of Scorpio, the nocturnal domain of Mars. So Venus moves from her
domicile, the sign concerned with justice and balance and diplomacy, to somewhat darker terrain.
And the first couple of days of this transition could be a little rough, although rough is often
also an opportunity for growth of course. Because as soon as Venus enters Scorpio and loses a lot of
what we call essential dignity, she squares Pluto. Now modern astrologers give rulership of Scorpio
to Pluto and there's clearly some affinity between Scorpio and the dwarf planet. Scorpio wants to
stare unflinchingly at the reality of human relations, to see through veneers, to uncover
the deeper undercurrents of things. Pluto is also related to depth. It forces us to undergo trips to
the underworld in order to be reborn in ways that are more true to ourselves. This square between
Venus and Pluto will probably put pressure on relationships. It may be a time when you see things
about a partner that are less than attractive, or when you're confronted with some of their darker
truths. But in my experience Venus-Pluto contacts are actually great opportunities to strengthen
relationships, but only if you're willing to be vulnerable and to sit and have the difficult
conversations and get to the truth of things, however difficult they may be. Venus square Pluto
can also bring intense encounters with others and themes of control, manipulation and obsession. So
be careful who or what you expose yourself to at this time. Of course you could choose to consciously
work with this energy by exploring or creating art that looks at the darker side of desire
and love. And there's another notable moment for Venus at the end of November around the 28th
when Venus reaches the later degrees of Scorpio and forms a grand trine with Jupiter and Saturn.
So that's another opportunity to work with the deep emotional healing energy of the grand trine
and this time probably with a lighter edge. All right let's change direction because in November
we once again reach Mercury retrograde season. On October the 29th Mercury entered Sagittarius.
We've already talked about Sagittarius in this video. It's a sign of speed and forward movement.
It's one that has deep convictions born of experience. It's a sign of the preacher but also the
explorer, the adventurer. Mercury in Sagittarius is put in service of Jupiter's quest for truth.
It adopts the pose of the archer using words to guide and motivate and inspire others. The
salesman's placement among other things. The problem is that Mercury in Sagittarius becomes
less concerned with actually getting the facts and details right. It moves too fast and gets things
wrong. So Mercury is less effective at its usual task of crossing the t's and dotting the i's and
lowercase j's. On November the 9th Mercury will station retrograde at six degrees and 51 minutes
of Sagittarius. The seventh degree of that sign. Mercury will then retrograde its way back through
Sagittarius and back into Scorpio. Eventually stationing direct at 20 degrees of Scorpio on
November the 29th. Mercury reached that degree for the first time this cycle on October the 21st.
So it entered the part of its retrograde cycle that we call shadow on that day. Once the planet
enters shadow it starts to set up the themes that the retrograde will be about. So have a think about
what came into your life at that time. Particularly relating to mercurial themes, communication, ideas,
exchange, trade and so forth. Because you'll probably be dealing with them again in November
after Mercury stations retrograde. Now on November the 9th that retrograde begins. So Mercury is going
to be doubly unreliable from this time. Normally Mercury in Sagittarius can be a good time to
practice using words to affect other people's behavior. But given the retrograde station I'd
advise caution with that this month. It could be a time when your words actually get you in trouble
if you're not careful. Mercury retrogrades can be annoying. Sometimes there are times when systems
stop working. You see weird technical snafus. You have to try things multiple times to get them to
actually work. It's a time for patience and to slow down and stop rushing to get things done.
And if you do slow down you might just pick up some wisdom in the silence. Mercury retrogrades
are also times when sclerotic systems and when ways of doing things in your life that have gotten
stale are shaken up. Since Mercury stationed retrograde in Aries on April the 1st of 2024
it's mostly been retrograding in the fire signs and shaking up those corresponding parts of our
lives. This month's Sagittarius retrograde is the last one beginning in a fire sign that we'll see
until 2031. Have a look at the three fire signs in your chart and think about which houses they apply
to. Those parts of your life have been given a dose of trickster energy. Perhaps some stuck
situations have changed. The next six Mercury retrogrades will begin in water signs so they're
next in the trickster's sights. If you want to know more about this subject I suggest you watch
this video that I made on Mercury retrogrades with Gary Caton who knows pretty much all there is to
know about Mercury and its retrogrades. One date to keep in mind is November the 20th when Mercury
makes its inferior conjunction with the Sun also known as the Kazemi. This can be a turning point
in the retrograde story when there's a moment of realization as Mercury meets with the Solar
Monarch and it'll do this at the exact same time as November's new moon which is honestly probably
the most interesting lunation of the whole year. On November the 20th comes one of the most
interesting new moons of the year and possibly even of the last few years. There's so much going
on with this new moon it's hard to know where to start. New moons represent new beginnings,
their seed moments when new ideas, insights, impulses, trends and visions begin and this new
moon comes in Scorpio so it's a new beginning in the Scorpio part of our charts. It'll bring forth
Scorpionic themes, feelings of desire, tight human relationships, strategic thinking, psychology
and so forth. But the crazy thing about this new moon is that it's conjunct Mercury which is
experiencing the Kazemi phase of its retrograde. Mercury Kazemis tend to have to do with sudden
realizations and breakthroughs. They can show the way forward through the retrograde which
will have been presenting problems to work through. So this new moon has a strongly mercurial quality
it's as if whatever's born here has the flavor of a mental breakthrough that relates to human
relations or other concerns of Scorpio. And then there's all this other stuff going on because
this new moon is closely dialed in to all the other outer planets. It's closely opposing Uranus
adding to the sense of breakthrough and newness. At the same time it's in a trine with the Saturn
Neptune conjunction that we've talked about a lot on the channel already and it's in a wider
out of sign sextile with Pluto and it's receiving a nice trine from powerful Jupiter in Cancer.
So this moon is a real punctuation moment for the story of the grand water trine that we've
been talking about in this video. So this new moon looks to me like it could bring new breakthroughs
both collectively and individually that have to do with human relations and the human family in
general. Of course it may not be easy. What's more I can see this being a moment where deep secrets
are revealed. Secrets of Scorpionic and there's a strongly revelatory quality to this new moon
given the Mercury Kazemi and the opposition from Uranus. Whatever comes out here will probably have
big consequences and set off new cascades of events with huge transformational potential.
I can see there being significant events here involving the US which has its moon at 27 Aquarius
in a close square and Israel whose Mars at 28 Leo is square to the moon and Uranus. Right now the
outer planets are in a minor grand trine with a Saturn Neptune conjunction as the anchoring
centerpiece. There's huge transformational potential for humanity with this current configuration
which is something that's working its way through us over the next years. It's signifying the
emergence of a new globalized multipolar world as well as transformations wrought by global
connectivity. You can't connect all of humanity's minds together in a single system and not expect
massive shifts for the human race and consciousness as a whole. But that transformation of humanity is
also working through each and every one of us. We're all experiencing breakthroughs and even
expanding consciousness right now, at least a lot of us hopefully. The conscious focus on 3i Atlas,
this strange interstellar object that's hurtling through the solar system from deep space is
another symbol of this. But again this new moon is a new beginning for each and every one of us
and it's in Scorpio so it will be a time to do some deep visioning work on what we most desire
not only for us as individuals but for the human race as a whole. All right let's keep pushing
because there's one last thing I want to talk to you about, Sagittarius season. On November the 22nd
the sun enters the sign of the archer and so Sagittarius season begins. Sagittarius is a mutable
fire sign ruled by Jupiter. The sun is in Sagittarius in the month before the winter solstice
which this year comes on December the 21st. In the northern hemisphere the winter solstice is
the darkest point of the year. It's when the nights are at their longest. Darkness hasn't
reached its greatest triumph over light. Sagittarius is descending towards this point
and yet as with all four mutable or double-bodied signs there's an inherent knowing that the turning
point is about to come and so Sagittarius is the sign of faith. It's about that belief that
something better is coming and that even though the world of matter may be difficult the light
always returns. Sagittarius is a mutable or double-bodied sign and as such it has a two-ness
about it. All the double-bodied signs carry some kind of duality in them because they come at a
time when two seasons are merging. One has yet to end but the new one is already making its presence
felt. The two-ness of Sagittarius is obvious. The centaur, half man half beast, symbolizing the union
of body and spirit. Mutable fire knows where it wishes to go but it also wants to show the way
to others. As we've already seen in this episode Mars in Sagittarius takes action to direct others.
Mercury in Sagittarius uses language to persuade and influence and inspire. The sun is soon entering
Sagittarius and shining a light on the works of the archer. The writer Joan Didion is a Sag sun
and moon. In a commencement address she once said this which I think captures something of the Sag
spirit. I'm not telling you to make the world better because I don't think that progress is
necessarily part of the package. I'm just telling you to live in it, not just to endure it, not just
to suffer it, not just to pass through it, but to live in it, to look at it, to try to get the picture,
to live recklessly, to take chances, to make your own work and take pride in it, to seize the moment.
And if you ask me why you should bother to do that I could tell you that the graves are fine
and private place but none I think do their embrace. Nor do they sing there or write or argue
or see the tidal bore of the Amazon or touch their children. And that's what there is to do
and get it while you can and good luck at it. Each of the immutable signs carries with it the knowledge
that the season is ending but that the new is also coming. There's almost a sense that they
more than others live in the shadow of death. Yet that knowledge is also what gives us lust for life.
So I wish you an exuberant Sagittarius season. In these crazy times we can all use a little
of the centaur's spirit. But that's almost it for the forecast. In a members version of this video,
available for members on YouTube or on my website, we're digging into 3i Atlas once again
and some intriguing signals that it may be more than meets the eye.
Thanks for watching and see you again very soon.
