The planets today
who you are · 8° Scorpio
In Scorpio until 22 Nov 2026, then Sagittarius.
For about a month, the Sun lights up one house and that area of life gets your attention whether you planned it or not. Expect it to feel like the obvious place to put your energy.
what you need · 28° Cancer
In Cancer until Sun 1 Nov at 4:18am, then Leo.
The Moon passes through a house in a couple of days, so it's more of a mood than a chapter. It tends to make that area feel tender, needy or suddenly important.
In Scorpio until 6 Dec 2026, then Sagittarius.
When Mercury passes through a house, conversations, paperwork and second thoughts pile up there. Good for sorting things out, less good for making your mind up quickly.
In Libra until 4 Dec 2026, then Scorpio.
Venus softens whichever house it visits, making people warmer and the area more pleasant to spend time in. It can also make you spend more there, so mind the basket.
how you act · 18° Leo
In Leo until 25 Nov 2026, then Virgo.
Mars brings heat to the house it passes through: more energy, more urgency and occasionally more friction. A good time to start things there, as long as you don't start rows.
where you grow · 24° Leo
In Leo until 26 Jul 2027, then Virgo.
For roughly a year, Jupiter makes the house it visits feel roomier and more generous. Say yes to opportunities there, but read the small print.
In Aries until 13 Apr 2028, then Taurus.
Saturn's visit asks you to take that area of life seriously, sort out what's wobbly and build something that lasts. It's slow, but what you build now tends to stay built.
In Gemini until 3 Aug 2032, then Cancer.
Uranus spends years in one of your houses, bringing surprises, restlessness and new ideas to that area. Expect to outgrow something there and to feel oddly excited about it.
In Aries.
Neptune slowly dissolves the edges of the house it visits, so that area can feel magical, confusing or both. Keep dreaming there, and keep receipts.
where you transform · 3° Aquarius
In Aquarius.
Pluto stays in a house for many years and slowly clears out whatever no longer fits there. It's rarely comfortable, and it usually leaves you stronger.

What it means for you
A planet's sign is the same for everyone. What makes it personal is which of your houses it is passing through, because that is the area of your life where you feel it. Saturn in Aries might land in one person's career house and another person's home. Find your houses, then match each planet's sign to the house that sign falls in.
