WEEKLY ASTROLOGY

Aries:

November 1-7: Picky people come your way. Don't aim to be totally organized, systematic, thorough and precise. Strive for casual efficiency. Financial discipline is essential. If you make out a budget and stick to it, you'll be pleased with the results.

November 8-15: Graceful movement is a good use of your energies this week. Make time to go dancing, skating, do aerobics, or similar fluid motions. A friend shares your favorite TV show for mutual pleasure. Relax and enjoy together.
November 16-23: Careful attention to details aids accomplishment and may bring monetary reward. Count your assets. You may express a more supportive attitude on the job this week. Be sure you get some of that caring energy back as well.
November 24-30: Your energy level and effectiveness are both high. However, don't expect to be able to do EVERYTHING. Set reasonable limits. You may want success faster. Don't let impatience become a problem; you can accomplish much! Family ties are in higher focus.

Taurus:

November 1-7: Living your values is important this week. Make a contribution, no matter how small, toward changing the world for the better. Assertion and anger arise as issues in relationships. Buried resentments could explode later, so be very clear with others.

November 8-15: Don't hold yourself back with demands of perfection. Do believe in yourself enough to act. You are called upon to be more sensitive. Trust your feelings and look for the silver lining and hidden value.

November 16-23: Time and energy constraints pull you between love and work. Take care of business during the days and romance in the evenings. Sometimes it seems household chores are endless. Focus on something small you can accomplish this week and satisfaction will rise.

November 24-30: Overwork and too much responsibility lie in wait for you. Be extra realistic about what you take on and be willing to say no. You feel the pull between a new, challenging project and tying up the loose ends on some old responsibilities. A holiday get-together is likely.

Gemini:

November 1-7: You'll have two kinds of tasks to which you must attend: some requiring much focus and concentration, while others can be done quickly. Choose wisely. The key to this week will be you knowing which tasks call for real thoroughness, and which can be done "once over lightly."

November 8-15: Indulge your favorite musical preferences in your leisure time this week. You'll relax and release any leftover tensions. Gather all the information you can and then use your intuition to make the final decision. Logic alone won’t get you all the data you need.

November 16-23: You want to relax and feel good, but also feel driven to explore and dig beneath life's surface. Placidity and probing must be blended. This week is a great time for a party--even an impromptu one. If that cannot be managed, set aside some time for laughter and fun with family.

November 24-30: A child seeks a way to demonstrate power over physical possessions and appetites. Food, toys, or money could be an issue. Stay cool. Now's the time to discuss what you and your beloved want from your relationship. Family connections can be strengthened and good times had during the Thanksgiving holidays.

Cancer:

November 1-7: Many different demands come your way. Don't attempt to do everything. Pick and choose where you can have the most impact. Head-to-heads over money, sex, or control issues are possible. Don't run from a fight, but do be willing to compromise.

November 8-15: In your relationship, you expect a lot. Nagging and dissatisfaction won't help; look for practical improvements. You're ready to analyze and improve your partner who's also willing to mention your flaws. Channel "fix-it" urges into tasks instead and everyone will be happier.

November 16-23: You can be more persuasive than usual, and this could be a useful asset monetarily. Take advantage of opportunities. Getting the right answers is important this week. You seek flaws in thinking. Mental discipline is good; guard against excessive criticism.

November 24-30: Your potential for charm and charisma is high. You may be very persuasive - or attract others who use their wiles on you. Have a good time! Interactions with others are highlighted. Plan on fun and frolic with your nearest and dearest, particularly on Thanksgiving.

Leo:

November 1-7: Take a good look at everyone's responsibilities and rewards around the home scene. Reassigning some tasks can avoid resentment. Fun with friends is in focus. Your children (and/or your inner child) enjoy lighthearted activities with other people this week.

November 8-15: Time to "wash your cares away." Consider a dip in a swimming pool, a trip to the beach, a walk in the rain, or water sports. Your persuasive abilities are in focus. Sales go well. You can play the comedian or entertainer for colleagues.

November 16-23: This week your caring quotient is high. You can be extremely warm and nurturing, with a great capacity to love and be loved. The financial focus revolves around the people you love.  Find ways to share pleasure (e.g., eating out together).

November 24-30: This week the watchwords are safe, sane and sensible.  Any financial moves should be very practical. Use your common sense. This week's the time for releasing old, negative emotions. Let go of hurt, resentment, anger, frustration and you'll find life opens up more and family get-togethers flow more smoothly.

Virgo:

November 1-7: In sharing ideas, you're unsure how much to shock others and how much to avoid making waves. Mental comfort vies with innovation. Family influences your thinking, conversation and perceptions this week. Immediate concerns and the people right around you draw your attention.

November 8-15: A past investment--of time, energy, or money--pays off. You gain the fruits of your labors. Emotions are intense and a confrontation could occur. Be sure your facts are straight before making any accusations. Use humor to defuse the situation.

November 16-23: Don't push aside compliments. You deserve them. Strive to appreciate yourself more. Pay attention to what you do well. Assertive action by you can bring financial rewards. Put yourself forward.

November 24-30: You're "up" this week with more faith, optimism and confidence. You can take direct action to advance truth, religion, education, or values. This week you are more aware of your strength, determination, and willpower. A bit of self-indulgence is OK also. Enjoy your Turkey Day!

Libra:

November 1-7: Invest in a course, class, book or program that can eventually add to your income.  Training now brings later rewards. The mind can contribute to your assets. Begin classes, reading, or honing skills that can (in time) enhance your financial situation.

November 8-15: Household members fluctuate from rowdy to silent or seeking fantasy rather than action. An adaptable attitude allows you to cope. Seek out some educational activities, help kids or grandkids with their homework, or do something to stimulate everybody's mind.

November 16-23: Words build bridges of friendship this week. Discuss what is on your mind; you'll find your connections strengthened. You have a really enjoyable discussion with a friend and both end up feeling good.

November 24-30: Sometimes you just want OFF the "information highway." Don't be afraid to take a break! Your beloved is eager for a romantic encounter. Set the mood and enjoy the results. A little indulgence is probably over Thanksgiving. It’s OK.

Scorpio:

November 1-7: Some of your strong feelings or beliefs may be tested this week. Insisting on your viewpoint closes doors; openness leads to useful insights. This week you may feel torn between the "real world" and religious or spiritual perspectives. Keep a balance between principles and practicalities.

November 8-15: This week you can be rational and logical, detached and objective. You will listen more to your intellect than to your emotions. Common sense is highlighted. This is a good time for solving practical problems. You can come up with sensible solutions.

November 16-23: Don't let work "get" to you this week. You're taking it too seriously and worrying about the future. It will all work out. Impatience with other people's interruptions or directions on what and how to do things could dog your footsteps. Seek solitude.

November 24-30: Your focus and concentration are excellent this week. You will get a lot accomplished, plowing through your tasks. Frustration is strong as a cherished goal seems beyond your reach. But if you give yourself more time, you can achieve it. Holiday activities are fun and food-filled.

Sagittarius:

November 1-7: A friend criticizes you. Take it as intended to be helpful and resist retaliation. Release emotions--cry, scream, vent to a friend. Don't keep things bottled up inside.

November 8-15: Foreign food tastes zestier this week. Go out to eat or fix the family an ethnic dish. Broaden your culinary horizons. You are more prone to mood swings about finances this week. Don't get caught up in extreme optimism or pessimism

November 16-23: Legal matters arise or you must deal with the political, economic, or judicial system. Be sensible. Getting some exercise is a good idea this week. Keeping active supports your spirit and builds energy.

November 24-30: An associate is acting out of character. Be sensitive and don't rock the boat. Circumstances will stabilize. You may be inclined to resist authority a bit. Thanksgiving puts family in focus with opportunities to indulge one another. A little pampering is in order.

Capricorn:

November 1-7: Your moods vary a lot at work this week: from totally dedicated to laughing and kicking back. Be aware of when the boss is watching! Beauty is tied to friends: perhaps sharing a sunset, going to a concert, singing together, or enjoying anything lovely.

November 8-15: Your idealistic quotient is high this week; balance perfectionism with self-assertion. Do something for charity, beauty, or spiritual inspiration. A sudden urge to change everything around could sweep over you, only to be replaced by a yearning for security and stability. Do a bit of both.

November 16-23: Information is power. Don't reveal everything. "Please mind your own business" is a legitimate answer. "Feast versus famine" swings (around food, alcohol, money, etc.) are likely. Allow yourself some human indulgences without going to extremes.

November 24-30: A major project begins this week. Don't feel overwhelmed; you will do a marvelous job! Taking financial stock is a good idea. Balance the checkbook, review a budget, consider expenses, or look over retirement and investment plans.

Aquarius:

November 1-7: You're a dynamo this week and run through tasks rapidly. High energy keeps you on a roll. You have much vitality for success this week, but strife is possible if you let others "bug" you. Tune out unimportant distractions.

November 8-15: Inner wisdom can point out a helpful course of action. Pray for guidance or listen to your small, inner voice to know what to do. It's normal to feel you don't have enough time for your work AND your relationship. Relax and give up guilt!

November 16-23: Energy, action, charisma and courage are important in your relationship. Find positive (not negative) excitement or risk-taking. Keep your romantic dreams, but be practical in relationships. Be forgiving of small, minor faults and appreciate major good points.

November 24-30: Your power and ability to stand up for yourself will be tested this week. Don't go looking for trouble, but be firm in taking care of yourself. Focus, concentration and follow through are important this week, so don't start anything without plenty of time to finish. (Stamina at the Thanksgiving table is likely as well.)

Pisces:

November 1-7: Sales people don't want to hear "No" now. Be firm, and don't purchase items you don't need. News of expansion in the home arrives--a visit, plans to add on, a new child, pet, or other arrival.

November 8-15: Slow and easy is the tone for your week. Don't push yourself. Take naps if you feel like it. Dreaming the days away is OK. Patience, fortitude, and follow-through are essential this week in relationships. Remember to count to 10.

November 16-23: You may feel some confusion about your employer as a person versus as a boss. Keep the divisions straight for your own good. Questions of right versus wrong or your expectations for your partner become a focus. Balance, compromise and humor are called for.

November 24-30: Take advantage of an opening to discuss your long-range plans with your partner. Visualize your future together. Mental activity, communication, learning or traveling with others are accented. Stimulate your mind with the people you love. The season of Giving Thanks is a good one for reconnecting with your nearest and dearest.
