November 22 zodiac sign: Scorpio or Sagittarius?

If you were born on November 22, 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 44 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 Sagittarius in 67% 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 22).

Your sign: Sagittarius (or Scorpio)

The mutable fire sign that aims at the bigger picture and refuses to be domesticated.

A Sagittarius Sun is built around expansion and meaning. You're the friend who has lived in three countries, who keeps reading philosophy at 2am, who wants to know what people actually think rather than what they're supposed to say. Your optimism is real — not the brittle "everything happens for a reason" kind, but a genuine sense that life is interesting and worth showing up for.

The date fixes the Sun; the year and hour fix the rest. A Sagittarius born November 22 with the Moon in Leo runs on a different inner weather from one with the Moon in Sagittarius: see Sagittarius Sun, Leo Moon. Your rising sign needs the birth time; the twelve Sagittarius Sun combinations show what each one changes.

In the US (2000–2014), an average of 10,706 babies were born on each November 22, rank 344 of 366 dates; Sagittarius is number 10 of 12 signs (7.95%). What's the most common zodiac sign?

The Moon on November 22, 1980–2030

Across the 51 years from 1980 to 2030, the Moon at noon UTC on November 22 was most often in Gemini, Libra, and Scorpio (6 years each) and least often in Cancer, Leo, Sagittarius, and Capricorn (3 years each). Unlike the Sun, the Moon sign depends on the birth year. On November 22, 2026, the Moon moves from Aries into Taurus at 10:10 UTC.

In 26 of those 51 years (51%) the Moon changed sign during November 22 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 22 in 1980, and new in 1984, 1995, and 2014.

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 first decan of Sagittarius

Each sign is divided into three 10° decans, and each decan has a sub-ruler that shades the sign's core. Degrees 0–10 of Sagittarius belong to Mercury: how you think, learn, communicate, and process information. Read it as Sagittarius with a Mercury accent — the fire 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 Sagittarians born on November 22 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 22 Scorpio or Sagittarius?

Both are possible. On November 22 the Sun moves from Scorpio into Sagittarius in most years, at a time that ranges from 00:19 UTC to 21:18 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 22?

November 22 is a cusp day between Scorpio and Sagittarius; at noon UTC it falls in Sagittarius in 67% of years between 1980 and 2030. Your birth year and hour decide it.

What decan is November 22?

The first decan of Sagittarius (0°–10°), sub-ruled by Mercury. Decans divide each sign into three 10° slices; the sub-ruler adds a second flavour to the sign's core — here how you think, learn, communicate, and process information.

What tarot card is November 22?

In the Golden Dawn system each decan has a minor arcana card: for the first decan of Sagittarius it is the Eight of Wands (speed, movement, news). 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 22?

It depends on the year, and in 51% of years on the hour too. For example: in 1980, Taurus or Gemini; in 1990, Capricorn or Aquarius; in 2000, Libra; in 2010, Gemini; in 2020, Aquarius or Pisces. Over 1980–2030 the Moon on November 22 was most often in Gemini, Libra, and Scorpio. A birth time and place pin it down.

Does everyone born on November 22 have the same chart?

No. They share the Sun in Sagittarius or Scorpio, 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 22 in different years can have almost nothing else in common in their charts.
