Full moon November 2025 (Hunter's Moon 2025): date, time and sign

The full moon of November 2025 is on November 5 in Taurus. It reaches its peak at 13:19 UTC — that is 08:19 EST in New York and 16:19 in Moscow. This full moon is traditionally called the Hunter's Moon. The Moon is also a supermoon, as its distance from Earth is 356979 km — closer than 360000 km.

Full moon in Taurus 2025: what it is about

With the Moon in Taurus and the Sun opposite in Scorpio, the sky highlights two contrasting yet complementary themes: the need for stability, comfort and the senses (Taurus) and the urge for depth, transformation and intensity (Scorpio). According to Vronsky, when the Moon transits Taurus, people tend to become calmer, more grounded and cautious, yet also slower and somewhat sleepy. At the same time, the Sun in Scorpio, as Vronsky notes, temporarily increases ambition, passion and interest in intimate matters, and can make people more argumentative and prone to errors. The combination suggests a tension between holding on and letting go, between comfort and transformation.

The aspects and the sky on the day

On November 5, the Moon in Taurus and the Sun in Scorpio are in exact opposition — the full moon itself. Pluto in Aquarius. Mercury is already in its pre-shadow period: it will turn retrograde on November 9 and remain retrograde until November 29, with the full shadow lasting from October 21 to December 17. This means that around the full moon, communication and travel may already feel slightly slower or more reflective — a good time to double-check details and avoid rushing into decisions.

What it may mean inside

Psychologically, this full moon can feel like a meeting between two inner voices: one that craves safety, routine and physical pleasure, and another that seeks transformation, emotional honesty and a deeper understanding of hidden motives. The Taurus Moon invites you to notice what truly grounds you — your body, your home, your daily rituals — while the Scorpio Sun asks what needs to be released or transformed. This is not a time for dramatic change, but for quietly observing where you hold on too tightly and where you might be ready to let go. The lack of major planetary aspects suggests that the inner dialogue is relatively uncluttered — you can simply sit with the question: What do I truly need to feel secure, and what am I afraid to face?

How to live the full moon in November 2025

  • • Slow down and enjoy the senses. According to Vronsky, the Moon in Taurus enhances appetite and a desire for comfort. It is a good time to prepare a fresh meal, listen to music, tidy your space or spend time in nature — without rushing.
  • • Be mindful of stubbornness. The same source notes that under tense conditions, people can become more obstinate, touchy or apathetic. If you feel resistance rising, pause and ask yourself what you are protecting. That can be useful for reviewing budgets or postponing large purchases until you feel clear. Avoid signing important contracts until after November 29 if possible.
  • • Notice your dreams and feelings. The Scorpio Sun, as Vronsky writes, increases sensitivity to subtle influences. Keeping a simple journal by your bed may help capture insights that arise during the night.
