The traditional birthstone amulet of November is the topaz; and the chrysanthemum is the month's traditional flower.
November is shared by the astrological signs of Scorpio the Scorpion and Sagittarius the Centaru-Archer, and is sacred to the following Pagan deities: Astarte, Hathor, Kali, Hecate and Sekhmet.

Ancient Hellenic =

* November is the month in which the Day of Hecate at the Crossroads is celebrated. As a goddess of witchcraft, Hecate has become the principle deity of forbidden and dark magic. From ancient Hellenic myth and the Hellenic-Egyptian magical papyri comes the corpus of Hecatean magic.
* November 7th: Night of Hecate. In ancient Greece, a fire festival was held once a year on this night to honor the goddess Hecate.
* November 11th: On this day, the annual Hellenic feast in honor of the wine-god Dionysos.

Ancient Egyptian =

* November 2nd: In Egypt, the final day of the Isia takes place on this day. This annual festival celebrates the rebirth of the god Osiris through the sacred and life-giving milk of Isis.
* November 24th: In ancient Egypt, the sacred goddesses of light and birth were honored and invoked annually on or around this day with prayers, libations, and the ritual burning of special lamps.
* November 28th: Day of worship, dedicated to the goddess Ma'at (Balance).

Ancient Babylonian =

* November 6th: On this day, the birth of Tiamat ( an ancient Babylonian goddess known as the Dragon Mother) is celebrated. According to mythology, Tiamat and her consort Apsu gave birth to all the gods of the world, and the earth and the heavens were created from Dragon Mother's severed body.
