In short: For the week of 16–22 November 2026, the Sun moves into Scorpio (Vrishchika) on Mon 16 Nov, 19:43 UTC+5:30 — Vrishchika Sankranti, Venus moves into Libra (Tula) on Sun 22 Nov, 17:30 UTC+5:30, Mars and Jupiter meet in Leo on Mon 16 Nov, 11:52 UTC+5:30 and Saturn is retrograde all week.

The sky this week

The Moon changes sign 3 times this week, as it does every two to two and a half days; its passage through the houses counted from your Moon sign is given in each reading below.

Where the planets are

Positions on Mon 16 Nov at 06:00 UTC+5:30, with any change during the week.

Rahu and Ketu, by their mean motion, always move backwards through the zodiac. In Jyotish a retrograde (vakri) planet is not a bad omen: classical texts treat it as strong in motion (cheshta bala), and its themes tend to be revisited rather than lost.

The Moon day by day

Aries (Mesha)

The Sun moves from your 7th house into your 8th on Mon 16 Nov, bringing visibility and vitality to transformation, shared resources and the hidden. Tradition does not list the 8th from the Moon among the Sun's helpful positions; read it as a call for patience and care, not as a warning. Venus moves from your 6th house into your 7th on Sun 22 Nov, bringing affection and enjoyment to marriage, partners and contracts. The 7th is not among Venus's favourable transit houses in Phaladeepika, so the classical counsel is to go steadily in these matters rather than to force them. On Mon 16 Nov, Mars and Jupiter meet exactly in your 5th house (about this pairing), joining energy and drive with growth and good counsel in matters of creative and family plans.

Mars is in your 5th house, bringing Mars's drive to children, creativity, intelligence and merit. Classically this house is not one that Mars favours in transit; patience with creative and family plans serves better than pressure. Mercury is in your 7th house, bringing Mercury's thinking and talk to marriage, partners and contracts. It is not among the favourable transit houses for Mercury in Phaladeepika, so take partnerships at an even pace.

Saturn is in your 12th house from the Moon, which is the first (rising) phase of Sade Sati — a long stretch that tradition reads as a time for steadiness, simplicity and patient, lasting work. Jupiter is in your 5th, a favourable house for it by tradition. Rahu (11th) and Ketu (5th) hold their axis between gains and friendships on one side and creative and family plans on the other.

Moon days. The Moon passes through traditionally favourable houses for you in your 10th (until Tue 17 Nov, 15:30), your 11th (from Tue 17 Nov, 15:30 to Fri 20 Nov, 00:50) and your 1st (from Sun 22 Nov, 05:55 to the end of the week). It is in your own Moon sign from Sun 22 Nov, 05:55 to the end of the week — a time when feelings run closer to the surface.

Taurus (Vrishabha)

The Sun moves from your 6th house into your 7th on Mon 16 Nov, bringing visibility and vitality to marriage, partners and contracts. The 7th is not among the Sun's favourable transit houses in Phaladeepika, so the classical counsel is to go steadily in these matters rather than to force them. Venus moves from your 5th house into your 6th on Sun 22 Nov, bringing affection and enjoyment to work, service, health habits, debts and rivals. Tradition does not list the 6th from the Moon among Venus's helpful positions; read it as a call for patience and care, not as a warning. On Mon 16 Nov, Mars and Jupiter meet exactly in your 4th house (about this pairing), joining energy and drive with growth and good counsel in matters of home life.

Mars is in your 4th house, bringing Mars's drive to home, mother, property and inner peace. It is not among the favourable transit houses for Mars in Phaladeepika, so take home life at an even pace. Mercury is in your 6th house, bringing Mercury's thinking and talk to work, service, health habits, debts and rivals. By the classical transit rules this is a helpful placement.

Saturn's long transit of your 11th house is one of its traditionally favourable positions, rewarding steady effort in gains, friends, networks and wishes. Jupiter is in your 4th, where tradition expects less of its help — guidance comes, but it may need to be sought out. Rahu (10th) and Ketu (4th) hold their axis between career on one side and home life on the other.

It crosses your 8th until Tue 17 Nov, 15:30, the window almanac practice calls chandrashtama; tradition advises keeping important new starts for other days.

Reading this page well

A Moon-sign horoscope places the week's sky on one twelfth of humanity at a time, so it can only speak in broad themes. Your own chart adds what this page cannot: the house each planet rules for your ascendant, your running dasha, and the ashtakavarga strength of each sign. If you do not know your Moon sign, your kundli shows it. For the Western, Sun-sign view of the same week, see the Sun-sign weekly horoscope.
