All 12 signs: weekly horoscopes for November 2 – 8, 2026

How is the weekly horoscope calculated?

At the start of every week the site recalculates the sky for the seven days ahead using Swiss Ephemeris. Houses follow the whole-sign system, so your sign counts as the 1st house and the next sign along the zodiac becomes the 2nd. From there the system checks which house the Sun occupies all week, which houses the Moon crosses and at what times, and whether a New Moon or Full Moon falls inside the week. It also notes where Venus, Mars and Mercury stand and whether any of them is retrograde. Each of those placements pulls a matching passage from a text library written specifically for weekly reading.

How to use your weekly horoscope

Read the theme on Monday morning and let it shape your to-do list; it shows where attention naturally gathers until Sunday. The day-by-day section tracks the Moon through your houses, so you can slot meetings, errands or a quiet evening into the stretch that suits them. The smoothest-days list marks windows that often feel easier for a job application, a first date or launching a project. If a retrograde note appears, lean toward reviewing, editing and wrapping things up rather than signing up for something brand new.

Daily, weekly or monthly horoscope: what's the difference?

A daily horoscope captures the mood of a single day, while a monthly one sketches the larger theme across four weeks. The weekly reading fills the gap between them: it pairs the Sun's steady focus for the week with the Moon's quicker shifts every two or three days. Reach for the weekly page when you plan, the daily page while the day unfolds, and the monthly page when you want the wider view. If you know your birth time, open your rising sign's weekly page as well.

Frequently asked questions

When is the weekly horoscope updated?

The switch happens on Monday, in the site's time zone, when each sign page rebuilds itself with the new week's sky. A week here runs from Monday to Sunday, and the times in the day-by-day section use that same time zone.

Is the weekly horoscope based on my Sun sign or my rising sign?

The pages are built for your Sun sign, since all it takes is your date of birth. If you also know your ascendant, read that sign's weekly page; topics that turn up in both readings usually point to what matters most this week. Your Moon, Venus and Mars placements can shift the picture further.

How are the best days of the week chosen?

The page lists the hours when the Moon is in your own sign or in one of the other two signs of your element. Traditional astrology treats these windows as times when things flow and your energy gets support. Weigh important decisions against your real circumstances all the same.

Are these weekly horoscopes written by an astrologer?

No. The planetary positions are calculated, and the wording comes from a library of passages prepared in advance for each house. Every sign is read by the same rules, which keeps the method consistent from week to week and from sign to sign.
