November 21 zodiac sign: Scorpio or Sagittarius?

If you were born on November 21, you're Scorpio or Sagittarius depending on the time: Scorpio before the Sun enters Sagittarius, Sagittarius after. The Sun crosses from one sign to the other on this date in 7 of the 51 years from 1980 to 2030, and the minute shifts from year to year (2026: November 22, 07:23 UTC). At noon UTC it's Scorpio in 100% of years; the exact minute of the change for every year is below.

Scorpio or Sagittarius? Check your year

The Sun's entry into Sagittarius shifts by a few hours from year to year. Find your birth year, convert your birth time to UTC, and compare: born before the time shown, you're Scorpio; after it, Sagittarius. Years missing from the list had the crossing on a neighbouring day (the Sun was in one sign for the whole of November 21).

Your sign: Scorpio (or Sagittarius)

The fixed water sign that goes to the depths and refuses to keep things shallow.

A Scorpio Sun is built around intensity and depth. You see through people — not always charitably, but accurately. The polite veneer most adults walk around in is transparent to you; you watch what people do, not what they say, and you remember. This makes you formidable in any field that rewards the willingness to look at uncomfortable things directly: therapy, investigation, surgery, research, art that doesn't flinch.

The date fixes the Sun; the hour fixes the rest. A Scorpio born November 21 in the late morning has Capricorn rising, and a different first impression from one born at dawn. Your rising sign needs the birth time; the twelve Scorpio Sun combinations show what each one changes.

In the US (2000–2014), an average of 12,005 babies were born on each November 21, rank 47 of 366 dates; Scorpio is number 7 of 12 signs (8.19%). What's the most common zodiac sign?

The Moon on November 21, 1980–2030

Across the 51 years from 1980 to 2030, the Moon at noon UTC on November 21 was most often in Libra (7 years) and least often in Aries, Cancer, Leo, Scorpio, and Capricorn (3 years each). Unlike the Sun, the Moon sign depends on the birth year. On November 21, 2026, the Moon stays in Aries the whole UTC day.

In 22 of those 51 years (43%) the Moon changed sign during November 21 itself, so in those years the birth time decides the Moon as well as the rising sign. Cells with an arrow mark them, with the UTC time of the change. The Moon was exactly full on November 21 in 1991, 2010, and 2029, and new in 1987.

Find your birth year. One sign means the Moon spent the whole UTC day there; an arrow means it changed sign that day, at the UTC time shown: born before it, the first sign; after it, the second. The Moon sign calculator settles it in seconds; your birth chart adds the rising sign and houses.

Times in UTC: a birth late in the evening in the Americas, or early in the morning in Asia, can fall on the neighbouring UTC date.

Your decan: the third decan of Scorpio

Each sign is divided into three 10° decans, and each decan has a sub-ruler that shades the sign's core. Degrees 20–30 of Scorpio belong to Venus: how you love, what you find beautiful, and what you value. Read it as Scorpio with a Venus accent — the water core is unchanged, the emphasis moves.

What the date can't tell you

The Sun is one placement out of ten. Your Moon sign changes every two to three days, so Scorpios born on November 21 in different years have different Moons; your rising sign changes every two hours and needs a birth time and place. Those two carry most of what people mean by "personality" in a chart.

Common questions

Is November 21 Scorpio or Sagittarius?

Both are possible. On November 21 the Sun moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius in most years, at a time that ranges from 18:54 UTC to 23:21 UTC UTC across 1980–2030 (in some years the crossing falls on the neighbouring day). Convert your birth time to UTC and compare it with the crossing for your year in the table above — before it you're Scorpio, after it Sagittarius.

What zodiac sign is November 21?

November 21 is a cusp day between Scorpio and Sagittarius; at noon UTC it falls in Scorpio in 100% of years between 1980 and 2030. Your birth year and hour decide it.

What decan is November 21?

The third decan of Scorpio (20°–30°), sub-ruled by Venus. Decans divide each sign into three 10° slices; the sub-ruler adds a second flavour to the sign's core — here how you love, what you find beautiful, and what you value.

What tarot card is November 21?

In the Golden Dawn system each decan has a minor arcana card: for the third decan of Scorpio it is the Seven of Cups (choices, illusion, wishful thinking). It's a birthday card in the same way a sun sign is — one lens, not a verdict.

What Moon sign is someone born on November 21?

It depends on the year, and in 43% of years on the hour too. For example: in 1980, Taurus; in 1990, Capricorn; in 2000, Virgo or Libra; in 2010, Taurus or Gemini; in 2020, Aquarius. Over 1980–2030 the Moon on November 21 was most often in Libra. A birth time and place pin it down.

Does everyone born on November 21 have the same chart?

No. They share the Sun in Scorpio or Sagittarius, but the Moon changes sign every two to three days, the rising sign every two hours, and the outer planets by year. Two people born November 21 in different years can have almost nothing else in common in their charts.
