Cosmic Shifts: Navigating Dual Retrogrades This Week
The week of November 10 to November 16, 2025, brings significant astrological energy with two major planets in retrograde - Mercury and Jupiter. Rather than fearing these celestial movements, consider them an opportunity for reflection and pause from the constant hustle of modern life.
Esteemed tarot reader Kerry King, with three decades of experience, suggests viewing this period as a cosmic "time out" from relentless activity and striving. This is the perfect moment to avoid major decisions, technological overload, and significant commitments. Instead, embrace stillness and contemplation about your current life circumstances.
According to King, this reflective period may lead to major epiphanies that have been developing beneath the surface for weeks. The universe encourages you to sit with your life as it exists now and observe what revelations emerge naturally.
Weekly Tarot Card Readings for Each Zodiac Sign
Aries (March 21 - April 20)
Your card this week is the Page of Coins, indicating that education and learning hold the solution to your current challenges. The answer lies not in working harder or longer, but in acquiring new skills or adopting different approaches. Break down what makes your situation difficult and research alternative methods to move forward.
Taurus (April 21 - May 21)
The Nine of Coins appears for you, suggesting that your self-improvement efforts regarding health, wealth, or home require more time than initially anticipated. Accept this reality as your new normal and create an adjusted plan. Every step you take brings measurable progress and rewards.
Gemini (May 22 - June 21)
Your card is the Five of Swords, warning against involvement in conflicts or rivalries. You naturally prefer avoiding confrontation, so trust that instinct now. Steer clear of others' disputes, even when they seem intriguing, and you'll appreciate this distance when tensions eventually escalate.
Cancer (June 22 - July 23)
Judgement card emerges for you, prompting a review of your 2025 journey similar to New Year's resolution assessment. Examine your growth, flaws, successes, and changes with clear-eyed honesty. This self-reflection will clarify what to prioritize and develop moving forward.
Leo (July 24 - August 23)
The Page of Wands encourages movement despite uncertainty. Waiting passively leaves you vulnerable to others' actions. Take steps in any direction, viewing them as experiments rather than final decisions. You can always adjust your course as you gather more information.
Virgo (August 24 - September 23)
Your card is the King of Swords, advising emotional distance from current situations. When too close to a problem, perspective becomes clouded. Imagine viewing your circumstances from an eagle's vantage point to see the bigger picture and make clearer decisions.
Libra (September 24 - October 23)
The Knight of Coins indicates no shortcuts available for your current goals. Hard work remains essential for worthwhile relationships, roles, or tasks. The effort itself will prove rewarding, and beginning sooner means finishing sooner.
Scorpio (October 24 - November 22)
The High Priestess signals a breakthrough moment for uncovering deep mysteries. The answers you seek already exist within you. Create space for solitude through walks, journaling, or daydreaming to allow inner wisdom to surface.
Sagittarius (November 23 - December 21)
Your card is the Queen of Swords, emphasizing independent work on current projects. Your abundant energy and ideas make solo efforts potentially more rewarding. Create a structured plan and accountability system since you'll reap all the rewards from your labour.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 21)
The Ace of Swords reveals home truths through candid conversations. Approach discussions with compassion and curiosity rather than jumping to conclusions. After clearing the air, take time to process what emerges about long-standing issues.
Aquarius (January 22 - February 19)
Your card is the Ten of Wands, warning of near-burnout conditions. Prioritize rest, delegation, and deadline extensions. Reduce mental stimulation and focus on nourishment through proper hydration, nutrition, and daydreaming to restore your energy.
Pisces (February 20 - March 20)
Death card signifies transformation already underway. Resistance proves futile against these natural shifts. Remain open-minded about emerging opportunities that could ultimately improve your position. Flowing with change leads to new heights.
