November zodiac signs
November has two zodiac signs: Scorpio and then Sagittarius. From 1950 to 2010, the Sun entered Sagittarius on November 21 in 2 years, November 22 in 54 years and November 23 in 5 years, in UTC.
November birthdays run from Scorpio into Sagittarius, from the sign that keeps secrets to the sign that tells you everything over dinner. Scorpio is read as loyal, watchful and all or nothing, and Sagittarius as honest, restless and hopeful. In love, one wants to know you completely and the other wants to go somewhere with you. It is also the month where people born either side of the change most often insist they are nothing like the other sign.

How these dates are worked out
We take each position from astronomy-engine, the open-source astronomy library behind our birth charts, at noon UTC on the date, in the tropical zodiac our charts use. Changes of sign and New and Full Moons are searched to the minute in UTC, and eclipses are dated by the moment they peak. If you were born close to a change, your birth time and place decide. How we calculate the sky shows the checks.
