Okay so last night I was scrolling through instagram right, saw some random astrology meme and boom – remembered I gotta do the November horoscope for Aries. Coffee first though. Always coffee first. Poured myself a big mug, kinda bitter ’cause I let it sit too long, but whatever.
Where I Started – Total Mess
Opened my damn laptop, screen was a disaster. Like, ten tabs already open from yesterday. Closed all that noise. Went straight to my notes app, the one I use for ideas. Searched “Aries stuff”. Found scribbles like “fiery”, “impatient”, “leads”. Basic stuff, but gotta start somewhere. Then I pulled out my dusty astrology books – yeah the actual paper ones, covered in coffee stains. Flip flip flip. Mars rules Aries, obviously. Need to see where Mars is chillin’ in November ’24.
The Planet Check
Fired up my trusty (and kinda slow) ephemeris website. Don’t judge, it works. Scroll scroll scroll to November 2024. Peeped Mars first. Saw:
- Mars hanging out in Cancer starting early November? Whoa. Water sign. That felt… weird for fiery Aries.
- Also noticed Mercury doing its backwards thing in Sagittarius later in the month. Ugh. Communication glitches.
- Oh yeah, and Venus cozying up with Jupiter in Libra around mid-month. Nice for romance maybe?
My brain was trying to connect how that affects an Aries. Mars in Cancer felt like telling a racecar driver to chill in a minivan.
Putting Pieces Together
Sat back. Sipped cold coffee. Ew. Okay, so Mars (their main planet) feeling crabby and emotional in Cancer. This ain’t natural for Aries! Means they gotta slow down, maybe deal with home stuff or family feels instead of charging ahead like usual. Annoying for them, probably. Had to write that down. Then, Mercury retro in Sag – that’s gonna mess with travel plans or big ideas near Thanksgiving. Important: tell them to double-check tickets and contracts.
Then Venus-Jupiter in Libra? Romance, partnerships, fair dealings – looked sweet. Aries might actually score big socially or find some peace in relationships… if they don’t blow it by being their usual pushy selves. Ha! Jotted that down too.
The Aries Spin
Now the hard part. Taking all these planetary vibes and making it sound like advice an Aries won’t hate. They hate being told “stop”. So I had to frame it as strategy.
- Mars in Cancer: Told ’em it’s a month for securing home base, listening to their gut feeling instead of just rushing.
- Mercury Retro: Said “Proofread everything dude! And hey, maybe road trip delays are a blessing?” (Gotta be positive).
- Venus-Jupiter: Highlighted it as a golden chance for fun dates or smoothing over arguments… but emphasized talking things out calmly.
Also threw in a warning: Mars opposite Saturn early in the month? That screams “Don’t pick fights!” Wrote it in all caps. THEY NEED THAT.
Wrapping it Up
My neck hurt by this point. Read the whole thing out loud. Sounded okay? Mostly. Edited a bunch. Tried to make it punchy, some tough love, a bit of hope. Kept thinking “Would an actual Aries read this and go ‘Huh, maybe’ instead of throwing their phone?” Finally hit save. Felt tired but glad it’s done. Just gotta post it tomorrow morning. Coffee’s cold again. Typical.
