Your Weekly Horoscope Newsletter: November 23-29

Hey {{first_name | destiny director}},

This week brings peak holiday heart chaos. With all the traveling, taking time off, and drifting back into hometown orbits, the universe is reopening unfinished romantic storylines.

Mercury and Venus stir the emotions, Saturn pushes honesty, and suddenly the “Are you around this week?” text feels… loaded. The ex who always resurfaces, the almost-something you might see at the grocery store, the one who got away who still knows your family’s WiFi password? Yep, they’re all in play.

Is someone coming back? Should you let them? And do you still want them? The cosmos says: welcome to reunion season!

🔮 Weekly tarot card: Judgement says don’t ignore this truth
🪐 Horoscopes: Signs. Secrets. Scandals.

♈️ ARIES (March 21 – April 19)
Jealousy is just love with trust issues. This week’s Mercury–Venus energy stirs up intense feelings that have you side-eyeing your partner’s every move. Instead of going CSI: Relationship, channel that heat into an honest conversation. Your instincts are sharp, but your imagination is louder. Redirect it. That “secretive” vibe? It may just be them planning a holiday treat for you.

♉️ TAURUS (April 20 – May 20)
Let love come to you, not the other way around. If someone’s been keeping things casual, Thanksgiving week you see whether they’re ready to go deeper… or if they’re just filling time. Venus trine Saturn brings seriousness in the best way, turning commitment from “scary” into “actually kind of exciting.” Trust your gut. Intuition is the gift you didn’t ask for but definitely needed.

♊️ GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)
Sometimes the detour is the destination. Your love life expands the moment you stop choosing the same person in different bodies. Venus entering Sagittarius opens your world, your options, and your appetite for someone who thinks as big as you do. This Thanksgiving weekend, lean into adventure, flirt outside your type, and say yes to the surprising match. You’re being upgraded.

♋️ CANCER (June 21 – July 22)
Love isn’t supposed to feel like a conspiracy theory. Mercury going direct smooths out the misreads, mixed signals, and text-chaos that’s been driving you up the wall. That message you’ve been analyzing? It meant what it said. Nothing more. This holiday week favors clearing the air instead of overthinking everything twice. Relationships can handle honesty: especially yours.

♌️ LEO (July 23 – August 22)
 If they won’t make a move, step forward. Venus trine Jupiter rolls out the red carpet for romance, and as usual you are the star of the show. Make a bold move, plan a holiday get together, or finally say something you’ve been rehearsing in the shower. You don’t intimidate the right person. You inspire them.

♍️ VIRGO (August 23 – September 22)
Dreams are great, but you need to be honest about what you need. Saturn direct reminds you that love thrives when boundaries are respected, not avoided. Tell that person what you need, clearly. It’s not “too much,” it’s emotional quality control. The right person will meet you there instead of making it a problem. Set the standard. Let them rise to it.

♎️ LIBRA (September 23 – October 22)
Money talks, but this week it’s yelling at you. Venus opposite Uranus can stir up tension around holiday spending, gifting, or shared finances. Keep financial stress separate from romantic energy, you already juggle enough. Prioritize harmony and reassurance. Your partner needs your honesty this time.

♏️ SCORPIO (October 23 – November 21)
Intensity is your love language, but it doesn’t have to be your weapon. Venus conjunct your ruler turns up the magnetism and the desire to go deep. Instead of interrogating someone to see if they’re “safe,” ask the question you actually want answered. Deep conversation > assumptions. Let emotional honesty pull someone closer.

♐️ SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21)
Adventure is out there… and so is someone who can keep up with you. Venus entering your sign kicks off your sexiest, sparkliest romantic window of the year. You’re irresistible when you’re honest, spontaneous, and a little chaotic in the fun way. Single? Shoot your shot. Partnered? This is perfect energy for leveling up (literally or emotionally).

♑️ CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19)
Power means nothing without stability. Venus trine Saturn is your love language: commitment, longevity, and shared ambition. You’re done with question marks in human form. This holiday week, you see clearly who is willing to build with you and who just likes to loiter in your energy. Let actions speak louder than promises.

♒️ AQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18)
Predictability is overrated, but nonstop chaos isn’t the move either. Venus opposite Uranus highlights where your need for freedom clashes with your need for connection. You don’t need to choose, you need someone who respects both. If your relationship feels like a cage, start the conversation. Or the exit.

♓️ PISCES (February 19 – March 20)
Reality check: even fantasies need grounding. Venus trine Neptune is romantic heaven, but it’s also where rose-colored glasses get prescription upgrades. Let yourself swoon, but stay awake. The best love stories have magic and truth. Keep your eyes open even when your heart wants to float.

On Thanksgiving, Saturn finally goes direct in Pisces, snapping you out of months of emotional fog and “what if” nostalgia. This transit blends truth with memory, forcing you to see old connections without the romantic haze.

You might cross paths with someone from your past or feel that familiar tug toward an unfinished story. Saturn isn’t reviving the past for drama, it’s checking your growth.

Pisces brings the feelings. Saturn brings the reality check.

Ask yourself: Am I being pulled back because it’s right now… or because it used to feel right?

This week’s tarot pull is Judgement, embodied here by a lone bald eagle soaring over an icy Alaskan bay. Everything about this imagery speaks to elevation, awakening, and a truth that rises whether you’re ready or not. The mountains are ancient, the waters reflective, and the eagle—a messenger between worlds—glides with unmistakable purpose.

With Saturn stationing direct in Pisces on Thanksgiving Day, the timing could not be louder. Saturn is maturity, reality, accountability. Pisces is memory, longing, and old emotional tides. Together, they summon the past not as nostalgia, but as a crossroads.

Judgement is the moment something (or someone) comes back into view… and you realize you are the one who’s changed. It’s the reunion, the reckoning, the “I can’t pretend I don’t feel this” moment. It’s the call-back from the universe that says: Rise to meet your own truth.

✨ The message: You’re being asked to respond differently than before. Growth means answering the call. Not repeating the old pattern.

You feel the shift before it arrives. An old feeling resurfaces, a familiar name pops up, or a memory feels suddenly relevant. Judgement whispers:

Pay attention to what rises—it’s rising for a reason. Write down whatever hits your spirit. This is your prelude.

This is the big one. The energy clears, and a long-stuck emotional storyline starts to move. Someone from your past may reappear, or you may see an old relationship with new eyes.

Judgement asks: Is this worth resurrecting? Or is this your moment to finally close the chapter with clarity? Trust your body’s reaction, not your fears.

The call becomes clear. It might be a text you send, a truth you admit, a choice you make, or a boundary you set.

You reclaim something you once gave away: your hope, your standards, your voice, your self-respect.

✨ Judgement rewards the brave. Saturn rewards the grown. This weekend, you are both.

On Thursday, we asked our daily readers* what part of their story they would most like to change. The answer was: “Repeating the same old patterns even when I know better.”

Here’s what the SASS Squad confessed:

Ready to retell your story—with power this time? Here’s what to do.

✨ The message: You’re not fighting the pattern, you’re replacing its ending. And Saturn direct loves a clean rewrite.

Think gratitude is just a fun journaling prompt? Nope. It’s low-key one of the most chaotically powerful forces in the universe. Here are the fun, cosmic, slightly unhinged facts your science teacher never told you:

Neuroscientists found that when you feel gratitude, your brain lights up in the same region activated by receiving cash. Yes, the universe rewards “thank you” like it’s Venmo.

You don’t have to feel grateful. You just have to try. Your body still releases serotonin.

Studies show grateful people get sick less. Apparently being thankful is nature’s free flu shot.

No magic spell here. Your brain literally filters for more possibilities when you’re in a grateful state. It’s called the reticular activating system. Aka: the universe’s algorithm.

People who express appreciation are rated more attractive in studies. Your personality gets a glow-up, not just your aura.

Heart rate drops. Stress hormones dip. Your body’s like, “Finally, something that’s not a disaster.”

Your brain has a negativity bias. It’s wired to notice the bad to help you survive. Gratitude hacks that bias so you actually remember the good moments instead of the awkward ones that haunt you at 2 a.m.

In some traditions, giving thanks during certain lunar phases was believed to “lock in” blessings. (Still works. SASS-approved.)

Because apparently being thankful turns you into the emotionally regulated version of yourself you wish you were.

Astrology, psychology, your grandmother. Everyone agrees: you don’t need to do it perfectly. A messy, half-hearted “thanks” is still cosmic currency.
