November 2023 — Tarot Pick a Card
Hello, my soul friends! Today we’re going to find out what November 2023 has in store for you. Curious how it will go for you?
All you have to do is pick the pile that sticks out to you the most. Which image inspires your intuition? That’s your pile and your tarot reading.
After you select your cards, scroll down to your pile or choose below.
Today I’m using the Crow Tarot and the Queen of the Moon Oracle decks (affiliate link). Remember that you have free will. That means you can manifest the positive and avoid the negative of any reading.
Now let’s find out what November 2023 will be like for you.
Pile 1: Rabbit
Themes
I see a month of lessons in your spread. These are going to be painful and cathartic lessons, but also lessons that give you closure and direction.
Because of the heavy thought element in your theme cards, the pain in these lessons may be entirely emotional. Perhaps no one on the outside knows the turbulent introspection you’re going through this month, so be prepared for your major eureka moments to be private and likely kept that way.
Your first card, Acceptance, is calling you to open your mind to possibility. Because of the Fear card, I believe there is some element of blindness. What you need to know is already in front of you, but you haven’t learned to accept that lesson yet.
The final oracle card in your spread, Wisdom, indicates you’re going to put your past and current experiences into context. This means whatever lesson you learn is meant to enter into your toolbox for later. It will make you wiser and more capable in the future.
Week 1: November 1st to November 5th
This week is about being precise and careful. I don’t necessarily sense this having anything to do with the general themes of the month, but embracing the energy of the Eight of Pentacles and being detail-oriented will likely help open your eyes anyway.
It may be helpful to journal this week or even just sit and ask yourself what it might be you’re missing about your life.
So it’s not so much that the lesson you learn this month is destined, but that the energy present makes it more likely you’ll realize it now than you had in previous months or upcoming months.
Week 2: November 6th to November 12th
Your second week this month should be a good one either in tone or event. This card, Queen of Wands, suggests you’ll be able to reconcile your introspection and start orienting your life in the direction that feels best.
Even though you’re unlikely to make monumental progress or changes, you’ll feel the change and have optimism and confidence about what you’ll be capable of in the future.
Week 3: November 13th to November 19th
Two steps forward, one step back. The Chariot, Reversed indicates a pause. This may or may not be a good thing, depending on whether you initiated it or someone else.
If you initiated a life pause, then it may be that you introspect some more and are even working on plans for the future. But if someone or something else caused the pause, you’re likely to be frustrated in your efforts.
Remember that even the most successful and powerful people have obstacles. Don’t be discouraged by a temporary one even if it seems all-encompassing at the time.
Week 4: November 20th to November 26th
Just as quickly as things stopped, things will start again because of the Four of Swords, Reversed. This is a sudden wakening card and you may feel as if you didn’t even get a chance to catch your breath.
If you started to initiate a plan, this may be a sign you’re trying to do too much at once. Ease into it instead.
However, if this suddenness is the result of outside forces, consider simplifying and prioritizing your life this week so you’re at least not overwhelmed with all that you need to do and can accomplish what’s most important at this time.
Week 5: November 27th to November 30th
I believe you’ll feel that things are unfair this week. The Justice, Reversed card could mean that you suffered some misfortune or that karma has been unkind.
But since this month is so focused on a lesson you learn, I suspect this may also be an internal understanding of a mistake you made and now you’re living with the emotional consequences. It could also be about understanding you’re circumstances are worse than you realized.
Remember to have compassion, though. This month is about understanding what went wrong so you can finally correct and justify yourself. It’s like a month of shadow work as life lessons. Just because it hurts now doesn’t mean it isn’t improving your life in the long term.
This is a reminder of the future you should live for instead rather than a lifelong bad karma sentencing.

Pile 2: Clock
Themes
This is an amazing, passionate month for you. Expect to be tired, but for good reasons: you’re going all out and chasing your dreams.
Your first card, Purity, indicates a clean slate. This could be an emotional clean slate or an actual clean slate in which you get to restart your life. Either way, a lot of your past won’t burden you anymore.
Just be aware with the Resilience card that you’re going to face challenges. I don’t see these challenges taking the face of past challenges, but I do think what you learned from those challenges will benefit you in the face of new obstacles, big or small. Hold to your desire for better things.
The final card, Hunger, is both an optimism card and a ravenous one. You’re not going to live like a plastic bag floating in the wind. You’re going to be filled with self-determination and moved by your desires. The clearer you are with your desires, the better your momentum will be.
Week 1: November 1st to November 5th
This week is likely to feel easier. The Five of Wands, Reversed is about the cessation of tension, though it can also mean feeling numb.
You may not want to do much of anything this week as you decompress from your past experiences. It’s okay to just relax and not make any plans. I think you deserve a little break.
Go have fun and let this week be the time when your slate is wiped clean in preparation for the month ahead.
Week 2: November 6th to November 12th
Ace of Wands signals an exciting and passionate beginning. You’re going to grasp hold of something that motivates you and then start a new path or project you really care about.
Know that this beginner’s energy is exciting, but also just starting to take shape. You may stumble a little bit and will no doubt encounter evidence that you aren’t fully prepared to manifest all that you desire.
Yet the motivation you feel this week should encourage you to be optimistic about the possibilities you do have.
Week 3: November 13th to November 19th
You’re going to feel a holy alliance between your mind-body-spirit or work with others on a project because of the Three of Pentacles. This union will help you to manifest tangible progress on your goals and it’ll be very encouraging.
Don’t let this opportunity pass you by. If you don’t have someone to work with, try an easy exercise regime like a daily walk and a mindfulness regime like a five-minute meditation.
This will help you to work with a holistic perspective and see problems from many different angles.
Week 4: November 20th to November 26th
Judging by the Page of Swords, you may be a bit reckless this week and take on things you’re unprepared for. Your Hunger card is really manifesting here.
But I don’t necessarily think this is a bad thing as long as you’re clear about what you want and you recognize you may face some minor peril in your actions. Don’t bite off more than you can chew, but it’s okay to take risks if you do so with eyes wide open to the possible consequences.
Example: it’s one thing to take on an exciting work project that could result in you losing a promotion if you fail, but an entirely different thing to quit work immediately in hopes of finding your dream job the next day.
Week 5: November 27th to November 30th
Your month likely ends with you losing a bit of control over your life. Temperance, Reversed indicates an imbalance. To some degree, I think this is unavoidable. You’re insatiable for what you desire and you’re going to be very aware you don’t have everything yet.
But you’re at risk of things getting crazy, so make it a practice to stop and think before acting. Consider the pros and cons of anything you plan to do so you can weigh possible outcomes effectively.
Worried you don’t know how to analyze a situation? Ask for help. People in our lives often love to be useful and even asking strangers on the internet can give you an objective perspective on a situation that you can use to weigh your decision-making.

Pile 3: Moth
Themes
You’re going to be fixated on material things or your status this month. That’s not a shallow thing in your case given your theme cards. This is a month of putting your life into context with the universe and learning to appreciate what matters.
Your first card, Focus, features a woman with a butterfly on her forehead. Butterflies are connected to spirituality, so I interpret the meaning of this card in your spread about contextualizing your life to something greater.
Consider your higher purpose, or if you haven’t discovered it yet, your connection to universal truths and values like love, and then ask yourself how to better orient your life around those things.
The second theme card is Gratitude. There’s a lot in life you don’t have, but you’re being asked to appreciate the little and big things that bring you joy and peace. Do what you can to emphasize these more. If you’re grateful for your family, spend more time with them. If you’re grateful for a talent, use it more.
Your final oracle card is Assessing. You may not make any major changes this month, but I do think you’re going to evaluate your life and your relationship with the divine. What makes you ungrateful? Why? Is there anything you can do about it, or is it something you need to emotionally move on from?
Week 1: November 1st to November 5th
This week is about celebration and fun. The Three of Cups could indicate that you’ll be spending time with others or it could indicate that you’re having emotional fulfillment. Some of you may manifest a creative project.
Emphasize gratitude this week. Write down what you’re grateful for on sticky notes and tape them to a mirror. Each morning, look at your reflection and see all the things you’re grateful for framing your face.
You can keep them up if you want, but at least keep them up until the end of the week or until you’ve listed everything you can think of and have been looking into the mirror at least a few times throughout the day.
Week 2: November 6th to November 12th
Something I rarely see people address is that gratitude is also a comprehension of what you don’t have. You can’t be grateful unless you know that what you have isn’t automatic.
Your second card, Knight of Cups, Reversed, is about an ideal being shattered. There’s likely to be an event or understanding that something you always wanted may not come true (at least in the way you expected). This is heartbreaking, but know it doesn’t mean the end of happiness.
Parents who want to have a child but learn they’re infertile often go through this. They either learn to accept their family will be just them as a loving couple or they adopt. But happiness in an alternative form doesn’t equal sadness. It’s just a modification with its own special and wonderful traits.
Week 3: November 13th to November 19th
Give back this week. The Six of Pentacles is a card of charity. People who give to others, emotionally or financially, are usually rewarded with personal satisfaction. It helps to activate your own gratitude and hopes because you’ll be an active witness that goodness exists in the universe.
This giving could be financial charity, but it may also be a personal quest to say one nice thing to a stranger each day or to help out a family member with a task they’re struggling with. Don’t overthink this and just imagine what your compassion could do for others if you listened to your heart more.
Week 4: November 20th to November 26th
I think this week will be frustrating for you. The Magician, Reversed suggests some failure to manifest or someone who serves as an obstacle to your manifestations. Take a deep breath when you encounter this.
This is where your Assessing card comes in. There may be an answer or a path forward that you didn’t consider yet. Obstacles are often opportunities to try something different, and I think that’s the case here because of the next card.
Week 5: November 27th to November 30th
Your month ends with the beautiful World card. This is about fulfillment and material advantage, so there’s going to be tangible proof of something you value.
You’ll likely feel on top of the world and very grateful for that, but know it wasn’t by chance you got to this point. Consider all the hard work you’ve done and remember what specific strategies or choices let you here. I think you can repeat the good you see again in the future.
