The new week, starting November 3, will have some favorable days, though a few risky moments are expected. In addition, Mercury retrograde will add its own "but." Exclusively for us, Ukrainian astrologer Kateryna Solovyova created a weekly horoscope and offered advice for each day.

November 3

From November 2 to 9, the shadow period of Mercury retrograde takes place. The astrologer reminded us of some important rules.

"Do not plan important negotiations, sign new contracts, purchase electronics, take essential business trips, take exams, make important payments, or resolve disputes with neighbors," said Solovyova.

November 3 will be an unfavorable day for new projects and image changes. It is also advised to avoid making serious decisions or spending large sums.

"If you resolve old problems, new energy will appear in your body. Passivity is unhelpful. Group work, discussing shared problems, and exchanging information are beneficial," the expert recommends.

November 4

"There may be feelings of melancholy, sadness, or gloom, which can be relieved by productive activities or significant physical exertion," the astrologer warned.

On November 4, from 1:21 PM to 6:16 PM Kyiv time, the Moon will be void-of-course. This position, as is known, is equivalent in effect to Mercury retrograde.

"When the Moon is void-of-course, the normal flow of affairs is disrupted, wrong choices are made, actions do not bring the desired results, and a person experiences confusion, inattention, and futile illusions," the expert reminded.

Additionally, on November 4, Mars will enter Sagittarius, affecting the lives of many zodiac signs.

November 5

"Avoid unnecessary chatter, gossip, and misinformation, and keep track of your belongings to avoid losing them. Deception and fraud are possible," Solovyova said.

This day is favorable for:

  • Returning to previous projects
  • Reconnecting with former contacts
  • Retaking exams
  • Searching for lost items
  • Regaining clients
  • Analyzing and collecting necessary information

"At 3:19 PM Kyiv time, there will be an exact Full Moon. Women feel the Full Moon more intensely than men. This is a challenging and stressful time for the body, brimming with temptations and emotional strain. Do not give in to emotions and avoid overloading your nervous system," the astrologer explained.

November 6

Due to the general daily background, the astrologer advises against starting new undertakings (business, travel, education). Physical exercise is recommended.

On November 6, from 4:51 PM to 5:20 PM Kyiv time, the Moon will be void-of-course. This time is not convenient for starting anything significant, making changes, solving problems, or making purchases. Ideas that appear on this day should also not be trusted.

November 7

"Romantic encounters are welcomed: prepare a small gift for your loved one to make the end of this week bright and pleasant," the expert advises.

On November 7, from 12:15 PM to 1:49 PM Kyiv time, the Moon will be in the destructive degree of Gemini.

"In Gemini, this degree symbolizes deception, intrigue, theft, cunning, treachery, slander, guile, and audacity. Do not rely on those who are untrustworthy and be careful when choosing friends," Solovyova warned.

November 8

"An unfavorable period for new projects and important decisions, surgical and dental procedures, hairdresser visits, long trips, expensive purchases, contract signings, or divorces," the astrologer said.

"The surrounding reality will reflect your essence. Everything said about you is true. Avoid alcohol and smoking," she added.

This is a good day to wrap up tasks, take stock, and collect what’s owed.

November 9

"A critical day. Refrain from getting married, entering into contracts, or lending money. Be cautious with new ideas and acquaintances," Solovyova advises.

It is necessary to cleanse yourself and your home.
