The Aries weekly horoscope for Nov. 9 to 15, 2026 opens with a new moon in Scorpio and closes with two planets finally turning direct, giving Aries a week that moves from quiet introspection to real relief. The new moon lands in the sign’s eighth house of intimacy, shared resources and transformation, while Mercury and Venus both station direct midweek after lengthy backward spins through houses tied to closeness and partnership.
For Aries, that combination means the week starts inward and ends with momentum. The Sun and Moon spend these seven days moving through Scorpio and Sagittarius, lighting up the eighth and ninth houses of shared resources and bigger-picture beliefs, before Mercury and Venus stations in the back half of the week unstick conversations and relationships that have felt delayed.
The Week At A Glance
- Nov. 9, 2026, 2:02 a.m. ET: New Moon in Scorpio, activating Aries’ eighth house of intimacy and shared resources
- Nov. 13, 2026, 10:55 a.m. ET: Mercury stations direct in Scorpio, easing miscommunication around money and trust
- Nov. 13, 2026, 7:21 p.m. ET: Venus stations direct in Libra, Aries’ seventh house of partnerships
Mercury and Venus have both been retrograde heading into this week, according to the sky data, along with Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Saturn and Neptune remain retrograde in Aries’ own first house of self and identity, while Uranus stays retrograde in the third house of communication and short trips, so the station of Mercury and Venus marks the clearest shift of the week for Aries specifically.
Love
Venus retrograde in Libra has spent weeks sitting in Aries’ seventh house of partnerships, and its direct station on Nov. 13 at 7:21 p.m. ET should take some pressure off one-on-one relationships. Venus is sextile Mars this week, a supportive angle that connects the partnership house to Mars in Leo, which sits in Aries’ fifth house of romance and fun.
Paired couples may find that a conversation stalled by Venus retrograde finally moves forward once the planet turns direct midweek. Single Aries natives could see playful connections favored by the Mars-Jupiter conjunction in Leo, also occupying the fifth house this week, adding warmth to romance and creative pursuits.
Career And Money
The new moon in Scorpio on Nov. 9 falls in Aries’ eighth house, the zone traditionally tied to shared resources, debt, taxes and joint finances. New moons mark fresh starts in astrology, so this one is a reasonable moment to review a joint account, a loan or a shared financial arrangement.
Mercury retrograde has also been moving through that same eighth house before its direct station on Nov. 13 at 10:55 a.m. ET. Aries natives handling contracts or financial paperwork this week may want to wait until after that station to sign anything significant, since Mercury governs communication and clear thinking in astrological tradition.
Wellbeing
Saturn and Neptune remain retrograde in Aries’ first house of self and identity all week, a placement that can make first impressions and self-image feel like unfinished business. Saturn traditionally represents discipline and structure, and its retrograde motion in the sign’s own house suggests this is a longer-term process rather than a one-week fix.
The Moon’s path through Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius during the week touches themes of intimacy, belief, ambition and community in turn. Readers who want to track exactly when the Moon changes signs can check a resource like timeanddate.com’s moon phase tracker for precise timing.
Best Day Of The Week
Nov. 13 stands out as the best day of the week for Aries, since it carries both the Mercury direct station at 10:55 a.m. ET and the Venus direct station at 7:21 p.m. ET. With both planets unsticking on the same day, communication and relationship matters that have felt stalled since the retrogrades began have the clearest shot at forward movement.
The next notable shift for Aries comes once Mercury and Venus settle into direct motion after Nov. 13, with the standard caveat that exact personal timing can vary and astrology is best read as guidance rather than certainty.
