Friday to Monday: a cut for the holiday table

- Book November 19 to 22 for a shape cut before Thanksgiving week.
- Growth trim? November 3 or 4, the waxing Capricorn days, are steady picks.
- Treatment night: November 10 to 12 are Aries days under a waxing Moon.
A year on from where this calendar began, the Moon is in a similar place. The hair days are back in the waning half, and November 2027 puts them in the most useful spot of the season.
The Moon enters Leo on Friday, November 19 and stays through Saturday, November 20, then moves into Virgo for Sunday, November 21 and Monday, November 22. All four are waning, from about two-thirds lit to a third. The last quarter Moon itself arrives very early on November 21 (UTC) at 28° Leo.
By the folk rules, that is a four-day window for a cut that keeps its shape, ending three days before Thanksgiving. If you want to look sharp at the family table and in every photo after, the tradition would say book that weekend.
Thanksgiving falls on Thursday, November 25, with the Moon in Scorpio, a water sign. Like Thanksgiving 2026, it is a skip day.
No November day is a waxing hair day. Growth trims fit the waxing days from November 1 to 7 (Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius) or November 10 to 13 (Aries and Taurus).
The Moon this month
A Taurus Beaver Moon
The full Moon arrives early on November 14 (UTC) at 21° Taurus, the Beaver Moon in the Farmers' Almanac naming. Taurus is an earth sign that the tradition treats as neutral: fine for a trim, nothing special.
The first quarter Moon is on November 6 in Aquarius, so November 5 to 7 are waxing Aquarius days, the month's best colour window.
The new Moon falls on November 28 at 5° Sagittarius, a treatment sign. Skip days: Pisces on November 8 and 9, Cancer on November 17 and 18, and Scorpio from November 25 to 27.

Quick answers
Can I get my hair done the weekend before Thanksgiving 2027?
Yes, that weekend is the pick of the month. Friday the 19th and Saturday the 20th bring a waning Leo Moon, then Sunday the 21st and Monday the 22nd move into Virgo. Folk Moon calendars treat that run as the time for a cut you want to keep its line.
Should I avoid a haircut on Thanksgiving Day 2027?
Moon calendars would say wait. Thursday the 25th has the Moon in Scorpio, one of the three water signs these calendars mark as skip days, so book the Leo or Virgo days the weekend before instead.
Which sign is the Beaver Moon in, in 2027?
Taurus, at 21 degrees, on November 14 (UTC). Folk hair calendars read Taurus as a neutral earth day: fine for a trim, not singled out for growth or for holding a shape.
When is the Moon in Leo and Virgo in November 2027?
The Moon enters Leo on Nov 19 at 00:27 UTC, Virgo on Nov 21 at 03:25 UTC. Read at noon UTC, Leo covers Nov 19-20 and Virgo Nov 21-22.
