Astrological events of the week (Nov 2-8)
- Sun in Libra (Tula), debilitated: the Sun runs through its weakest sign until mid-November, so authority battles and ego pushes pay poorly this week. Cooperation pays better.
- Mercury retrograde and combust in Libra: Budh is vakri since October 24 and sits close to the Sun. Messages misfire, bookings wobble, old conversations return. It turns direct on November 13.
- Venus retrograde at the edge of Libra: Shukra, the festival's own planet, is retrograde through Diwali and turns direct on November 14. Relationships and purchases both carry a "look again" flavour.
- Mars debilitated in Cancer (Karka): Mangal reaches the deepest point of its debilitation this very week. Energy runs low, irritation runs high; budget both.
- Jupiter newly in Leo (Simha), with Ketu: Guru has just changed signs, opening a year-scale transit. Whichever house Leo rules in your chart gets a long-term blessing starting now.
- Saturn retrograde in Pisces (Meena): Shani continues its slow review; old duties ask to be finished properly.
- Amavasya on Diwali: the new Moon tithi runs from 11:27 am on November 8 to 12:31 pm on November 9, which is why Lakshmi Puja falls on Sunday the 8th.
The theme: reflect before you reconfirm
Two of the sky's gentlest planets, Mercury and Venus, are both retrograde through the entire week, and they are sharing Libra with a debilitated Sun. That is not a bad sky; it is a backward-looking sky in a forward-looking week. Old friends reappear at Diwali gatherings, old payment threads and old plans resurface, and anything rushed, especially paperwork, gadget purchases and travel bookings, deserves one extra check. Traditional Dhanteras purchases are a matter of custom and joy; just recheck receipts, warranties and delivery dates while Mercury is vakri, and keep big new commitments for after November 13-14, when both planets turn direct.

Weekly horoscope for all 12 signs
These are Moon-sign (rashi) readings from the week's actual planetary positions. Read your Moon sign first; if you only know your Sun sign, read both.
Aries (Mesh)
The Libra stellium sits in your 7th house, so partners, clients and spouses take centre stage, and with Mercury and Venus both retrograde there, an old conversation or an old flame may resurface. Hear it out, but do not re-sign anything before the 13th. Mars deep in your 4th can make home tense around the festival rush: light the diya, skip the argument. Jupiter entering your 5th is the week's gift: children, romance and creative work get a long-term tailwind.

Taurus (Vrishabh)
Your ruler Venus is retrograde in your 6th house of work and health: an old workplace issue or a recurring health niggle wants finishing, not ignoring. Routine discipline beats new launches this week. Jupiter's entry into your 4th house starts a gentle golden phase for home and family, fitting for a Diwali spent close to your people. Keep Dhanteras purchases practical and bills double-checked while Mercury is retrograde.

Gemini (Mithun)
Mercury, your ruler, is retrograde and combust in your 5th house: old projects, old students, old romances, all knocking. Revise rather than launch, especially anything creative. Money sits in focus with the 2nd house active; festival spending is fine, lending is not. Jupiter now in your 3rd house builds courage and sibling bonds through the month ahead. Saturn retrograde in your 10th asks patience with a slow-moving career matter.

Cancer (Kark)
Mars is at its deepest debilitation in your own sign this week, so energy dips and tempers flare faster than usual: guard your rest in the middle of the festival schedule. The upside is real: Jupiter has just entered your 2nd house of wealth and family, one of the better long-term money transits you will get, and Diwali is a fitting week to feel it begin. Home repairs flagged by the 4th-house theme are better scheduled after mid-November.

Leo (Singh)
The headline is yours: Jupiter has just entered Leo, beginning a year-scale chapter of growth, visibility and blessings on your own sign, and it starts in Diwali week. Ketu beside it keeps the growth spiritual rather than flashy, so let the work speak. Mars hidden in your 12th can disturb sleep and stir background stress; keep late nights in check. With the retrograde stellium in your 3rd, double-check travel plans and messages before the lamps are lit.

Virgo (Kanya)
The Libra stellium is in your 2nd house of money and speech, and both money planets there are retrograde: recheck bills, EMIs and anything you are told you are owed, and keep festival words sweeter than sharp. Venus retrograde edges back toward your sign mid-month, so self-care returns to the agenda. Saturn retrograde in your 7th asks patience with a partner. Jupiter in your 12th begins a year where rest, retreats and quiet giving matter more than applause.

Libra (Tula)
Sun, retrograde Mercury and retrograde Venus are all sitting on your sign in your birthday season: identity review is the theme, and old versions of you, old partners, old plans will ask whether they still fit. Decide after the 13th, when your ruler Venus and Mercury straighten out. Mars debilitated in your 10th makes workplace friction likely; do not take the bait during festival deadlines. Jupiter entering your 11th is excellent news: gains and friendships grow for the year ahead.

Scorpio (Vrishchik)
The stellium rests in your 12th house: the quietest corner of the chart during the loudest week of the year. Old expenses, old dues and unfinished private matters surface for closing; clear them before Diwali and the festival feels lighter. Jupiter's entry into your 10th house opens a strong career year, with recognition building from this very week. Keep Dhanteras spending within the list you wrote, not the list the market writes for you.

Sagittarius (Dhanu)
Gains flow through old doors this week: the 11th-house stellium, with Mercury and Venus retrograde, brings former colleagues, old clients and lapsed friendships bearing opportunities. Follow up, but paper the deal after the 13th. Mars in your 8th argues against risky money moves during the festive rush. Your ruler Jupiter entering your 9th house of bhagya begins one of the luckier year-long transits you get: travel, learning and faith all brighten.

Capricorn (Makar)
The career spotlight is on: the Libra stellium fills your 10th house, but with both benefics retrograde there, the wins come from reworked old projects rather than new launches. A past achievement gets a second life. Mars debilitated in your 7th can heat up partner conversations exactly when the house is full of guests; choose the festival over the argument. Rahu in your 2nd keeps money ambitious: let Dhanteras purchases be deliberate, not impulsive.
Full Capricorn November rashifal in Hindi →
Aquarius (Kumbh)
Rahu on your own sign keeps you restless and visible; use it for the season's socialising rather than overthinking. Mars debilitated in your 6th house says watch routine health, especially sleep and digestion through the sweets and late nights. Jupiter's fresh entry into your 7th house is the week's quiet headline: partnerships, marriage talk and collaborations now carry a year of growth. With Mercury retrograde in your 9th, reconfirm any travel bookings twice.
Full Aquarius November rashifal in Hindi →
Pisces (Meen)
Saturn retrograde continues on your sign, so the week asks for patience with yourself first. The 8th-house stellium, retrograde planets included, puts joint money, insurance and family property papers under review: read documents slowly, sign them after the 13th. Jupiter entering your 6th house strengthens your hand in daily work and health discipline for the year ahead. Diwali evening spent simply, with your closest people, restores more than any party.

How to read a weekly horoscope honestly
A weekly horoscope is a transit reading for everyone who shares your Moon sign; it describes the weather, not your exact road. The same retrograde Venus that asks one Libra to rethink a purchase asks another to call an old friend. What decides which applies to you is your own birth chart: your lagna, your dashas, your houses. That reading is what Aura AI does from your kundli, and the first question is free.
