Your daily horoscopes for Saturday November 2, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
The sky’s the limit starting Saturday as mental Mercury zings into expansive Sagittarius. The messenger planet will be activating your boundary-busting ninth house until January 8, bringing a flurry of possibilities into your line of vision. Write them all down so none of your best ideas fall through the cracks. To flex your personal-growth muscles, you might sign up for a class, pitch an entrepreneurial venture or connect with a far-off collaborator. Choose your own adventure, Ram. Just make sure you get it all arranged before Mercury spins retrograde from November 25 to December 15. On Sunday, it’s your ruler, molten Mars, who blasts into a new sign: Leo and your fun-loving, artistic fifth house. Between now and January 6, you’ll have oodles of energy to make serious headway on a creative project. And since this house also rules amour, that red-hot Mars energy can turn a sultry exchange into explosive chemistry. Are you ready to take an existing bond to the next level? Initiate the action, bold Aries. But do it fast! On December 6, Mars flips into a two-and-a-half-month retrograde that could force you to backtrack and move at a more measured pace.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
Ready, set, focus! If your attention has been on other people at the expense of your own pet projects, Mercury’s arrival in your intensity zone on Saturday encourages you to zero in on what matters most to YOU. Choose one thing that you’re passionate about—something you can get really obsessed with in a healthy way. Then shift into focus mode and do a deep dive between now and January 8 (an extended spell due to the upcoming retrograde from November 25 to December 15). When you come up for air occasionally, you’ll crave real talk about serious stuff with the people closest to you. Casa Taurus is the happening spot starting Sunday, when mobilizing Mars parades into Leo and activates your domestic corner until January 6. All of a sudden, those household projects you kept putting off seem more urgent. Declutter your space, pick up a heavy winter quilt, put up bookshelves. But try not to take on more than you can handle because the red planet also has a retrograde cycle that begins on December 6. Keep your distance (as much as possible) from triggering family members so you don’t wind up embroiled in a protracted conflict.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
Time to do what you do best, Twin: talk! Your ruler, verbal Mercury, zips into Sagittarius and your partnership province on Saturday, calling for you to level up the communication in your relationships. Between now and January 8, make a point of connecting one-on-one and getting a dialogue going, especially if you’ve been uncharacteristically guarded lately. Remember to do an equal amount of listening because it’s the mutual exchange of thoughts and feelings that will seal your bond. You’ll also bank some good karma for potential miscommunications that may arise when (glug) Mercury is retrograde from November 25 to December 15. You’ll be in your element starting Sunday as dynamic Mars promenades through Leo and your third house of communication and community for the first time in a year and a half. You’re a pro at “twinning,” and this superconnector cycle calls for you to band together with kindred spirits between now and January 6. But don’t get too far out over your skis. On December 6, the red planet turns retrograde, backing up through Leo, then Cancer, until February 23. Also, since Mars can tempt you to get carried away, carefully vet any potential partners, whether you’re pairing off for fun, amour or business.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
Messenger Mercury embarks on its annual journey through your systems zone Saturday, persuading you to get your ducks in a row. You have until January 8 (an extended spell due to the upcoming retrograde from November 25 to December 15) to analyze what’s working and what’s not in your daily life and come up with solutions. Maybe you’ll hit on the perfect fix for a stalled project or tap someone to take over a duty that’s never been a good fit for you. If your energy flags late in the day after carb-heavy meals, you might try going gluten-free. The devil is in the details, so don’t be afraid of a little micromanaging to get just the right routine that will make your days run like clockwork. Firecracker Mars departs your sign this Sunday after a whirlwind of a transit that may have worn you out these last couple of months. Although it’s been a wild ride, it may have been a bit intense and even unnerving. Now, as the red planet marches into Leo and your stabilizing second house until January 6, you can ground some of your recent genius ideas in reality. Since this is also your finance sector, if your bank balance has taken a hit after all that high flying, you can start to rebuild your cash reserves. Important note: Mars spins retrograde from December 6 to February 23, backing up through Leo, then slipping into Cancer on January 6. Make a budget for the holidays and don’t overdo it on family plans. You need to preserve some energy for yourself in early 2025!
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
What’s in your heart, Leo? After Mercury swings into Sagittarius and your expressive fifth house Saturday, the spirit moves you to share more of your famous passion with the world. You could reveal your feelings to a crush or take on a high-profile role that generates buzz or dig into a creative endeavor with gusto. Between now and January 8 (a protracted spell due to the upcoming retrograde from November 25 to December 15), your mind will be on what fulfills you and how you can convey your unique message. If you leap out of bed this Sunday rarin’ to go, don’t expect others to keep up with you! For the first time since spring 2023, go-getter Mars blazes a trail into Leo and revs up your first house of image and identity until January 6. Channel that boundless energy toward something you’re legitimately passionate about. Over the coming weeks, you’ll make immense strides when you focus on personal growth development. Careful not to bite off more than you can chew with these missions. The red planet will turn retrograde on December 6, ramping up stress. Instead of adding complexity, simplify to amplify.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
Kin and kith will be on your mind once your ruling planet, Mercury, soars into Sagittarius and your foundation zone Saturday. Reach out to your nearest and dearest while the communication planet travels through this sentimental part of your chart until January 8. And if you’ve had a beef with family members lately, start mending fences in time for the holiday season—and before Mercury’s retrograde from November 25 to December 15. Trying to plan a gathering? Put your heads together to get a consensus on logistics like who’s hosting and what’s on the menu. On Sunday, motivating Mars darts into your twelfth house of rest and retreat. Talk about a paradox! Between now and January 6, you could feel both wound up and worn out at once, especially when Mars slips into retrograde mode on December 6. Be careful not to expend too much energy during this healing cycle. You’ll be far more “productive” if you go within. There’s nothing particularly fun about unpacking emotional baggage, regressive patterns of behavior and outmoded situations—but Mars imbues you with the courage to face your demons.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
What have you got to say for yourself, Libra? Speak up starting NOW because loquacious Mercury wings into Sagittarius and your communication corner on Saturday and will linger there until January 8 (an extended spell due to the upcoming retrograde from November 25 to December 15). Pitch ideas at meetings where you might be hanging back too much. Toot your own horn on social media instead of merely shining a spotlight on others. Look around close to home for people you’d like to reconnect with. Invite a neighbor over for Thanksgiving, check in on your sis or drop by your favorite cafe for a catch-up chat with your local crew. You might treat networking like a part-time job starting Sunday, when motivating Mars parades into Leo and fires up your eleventh house of groups and tech until January 6. Is your contact list getting a little stale? Sift through social media profiles to find more heavy hitters to add to your database. Are you hoping to make a lateral move? Once Mars turns retrograde on December 6, you’ll do better to reach out to peers, acquaintances and former colleagues who are familiar with all the ways you dazzle.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
Keeping your mind on your money is more important than ever as mental Mercury lands in Sagittarius and your finance zone on Saturday. Between now and January 8, you’d do well to think about your budget every time you pull out your debit card. We’re not suggesting you go into Grinch mode. Just put extra thought into your gift-giving, selecting one affordable thing for each person on your list rather than splurging on a ton of stuff in a last-minute frenzy, especially since Mercury will be retrograde from November 25 to December 15. Supersized goals start calling your name this Sunday, Scorpio! Listen up because for the first time since spring 2023, your co-ruler, motivating Mars, blazes into your tenth house of success. Between now and January 6, shift your ambition into overdrive. This is your time to step up to the plate and claim your seat at the table. Ready for a professional pivot? Pursue job and client leads with gusto until December 6. After that, Mars will be retrograde for eleven weeks, marking a cautious period where you can make more progress behind the scenes than out in the wild.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday November 2
You were born with a silver tongue, and the zingers will be flying extra fast and furious once witty Mercury sails into your sign on Saturday and sets up shop until January 8 (an extended spell due to the upcoming retrograde from November 25 to December 15). If you have a message you’d like to broadcast, this is a golden opportunity. Make a viral video, write a clever post, hit send on that important email—send your words out into the universe. If your nomadic urges have been MIA, just wait until Sunday. For the first time since spring 2023, fiery Mars bolts into Leo, activating your worldly ninth house until January 6. Although you don’t need to travel in order to broaden your horizons, many Archers will make plans to do precisely that. This cycle is also favorable for getting advanced training, launching a publishing project (with AI, perhaps?) or green-lighting an entrepreneurial venture. One catch: Mars will spin retrograde from December 6 to February 23, first in Leo and then Cancer. During this period, focus on attracting opportunities that are a natural fit instead of pursuing every lead that comes your way.

Your pulse will be racing between now and January 6, and you might want to set aside some nights for private time with bae or enjoying your own company. Single Goats could make it their mission to meet one…or two…or a few sexy prospects. But stay on-guard for obsession and jealousy.
