13 voids, 16% void
Bare branches and a bright Moon: November's voids are short and steady.
November holds a record of its own: the shortest void-of-course Moon of 2027. In Libra, the Moon sextiles Venus at nearly 30 degrees and enters Scorpio about five minutes later. A void that brief is almost a technicality, and a good reminder that the Moon is not "void for days" as often as people assume.
The month's longest window comes early, in Pisces, after an opposition to Jupiter: around sixteen hours before the Moon reaches Aries. It is short compared with the year's two-day giants.
The Full Moon in Taurus mid-month is grounded and practical, a good night for a home-cooked meal and a budget check before the holidays. The New Moon in Sagittarius near the end of the month suits plans for travel, study or a new year's goal you want to start early. The US Thanksgiving week falls late in the month; check your travel and dinner times against the table.

November 2027, counted
13 windows, 117 h. 9th of 12 by hours; 16% under a 2027 month's mean; none past 24 h, 1 under 60 min. Weekend starts (UTC): 4. Weekday 13:00 to 22:00 UTC starts: 3.
The Full Moon at 21°31′ Taurus on Sun Nov 14 · 03:25 UTC, the New Moon at 5°39′ Sagittarius on Sun Nov 28 · 03:24 UTC: 2, both clear of any void.

6 planets close voids
Five minutes in Libra
The shortest void of the year comes on November 25. The Moon sextiles Venus from Libra at 11:05 UTC and enters Scorpio at 11:10. That is the whole window, and it is the only void of 2027 shorter than ten minutes.
November is otherwise a month of medium-length windows. Five of thirteen pass twelve hours, but none reaches seventeen. The longest, about sixteen hours in Pisces from November 9 to 10, follows an opposition to Jupiter, and the next three, in Aries, Taurus and Gemini, each last between about twelve and fourteen hours.
The last word is spread out this month. Mercury and Jupiter close three voids each, and Saturn, Mars and the Sun two each, with Venus taking only that five-minute one. Tuesdays and Thursdays (UTC) start four voids apiece. The Full Moon in Taurus on November 14 lands less than two hours before the Taurus void begins, and the Sagittarius New Moon on the 28th falls clear of any void.

November: when to wait, when to go
Try this today
- Check your Thanksgiving travel window against the table.
- Plan next year's trip at the Sagittarius New Moon.
- Look up the five-minute Libra void and enjoy the trivia.
Move anything important off the early Pisces void. The rest of November is mostly short windows, so you can schedule freely with small adjustments.
November's long windows cluster in the first half of the month: five of them between November 2 and 14, each lasting about thirteen to sixteen hours. After the Gemini void on the 16th, everything is under eleven hours. If you are booking Thanksgiving travel, November 25 has that five-minute Libra void at 11:05 UTC and nothing else, so the day is effectively clear.

Worth knowing
Five minutes counts because the definition is binary: once the Moon makes its last aspect in a sign, it is void until the ingress, however soon that comes.

Is the Moon void of course on Thanksgiving 2027?

What about the Taurus Full Moon on November 14?
It stays clear, by a small margin. The lunation lands at 03:25 UTC, the Moon still has its trine to Jupiter ahead, and that trine at 05:06 UTC opens the Taurus void. From there the Moon drifts for about thirteen hours before reaching Gemini at 18:14.
