Get A Jump On Tomorrow…
Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, November 16th
by Rick Levine
General Horoscope
Stirring up some mischief sounds like a lot more fun than managing our responsibilities while Uranus the Awakener shoots sparks at Mercury the Trickster. Although there is less planetary pressure in the mix, serious issues still loom around the next corner and we will need to pay the piper next week for what we don’t do today. Nevertheless, the whimsical Gemini Moon distracts us until she sinks into contemplative Cancer at 7:56 pm EST.
Aries Horoscope Mar 21 – Apr 19
It’s one thing to dream about jumping on an airplane for a quick weekend getaway, but it’s something quite different to actually do it. Although plotting this type of escape might be a fun pastime, you’ll likely think about it in a more practical manner later in the day. Nevertheless, impulsively buying tickets — or doing anything irresponsible — is probably not a great idea at this time. Enjoy getting lost in the fantasy but see how you feel about it in a few days to avoid the consequences of buyer’s remorse.
Taurus Horoscope Apr 20 – May 20
You have mixed emotions about revealing your innermost secrets today — even to people you trust. But you’re not as worried about someone else’s reactions to your disclosure as you are about your next move. You don’t know if you’re ready to follow through on your intentions now, but you realize that you won’t be able to take back what you say. Tread carefully while continuing to consider your options. However, in the end, you’re less likely to regret the things you’ve done than the things you didn’t do when you had the chance. Tony Robbins says, “It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.”
Gemini Horoscope May 21 – Jun 20
Your cerebral antennae are fully extended today as you scan your environment for something new and exciting to fill your day. Unfortunately, your calendar might already be so overloaded that there’s no time for extracurricular pursuits. Nevertheless, your restlessness may be so acute that you’re willing to deal with an awkward situation later in order to satisfy your boredom now. Thoreau wrote, “Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.”
Cancer Horoscope Jun 21 – Jul 22
Maintaining a consistent outlook on life is tricky today because one moment you think you can do anything you set your mind to and a few minutes later you believe you’ll fail at even the simplest task. Obviously, neither of these two extremes are true. Instead of allowing your confidence to ebb and flow with arbitrary emotional tides, take control of your day by establishing realistic goals and striving to achieve them. However, the fastest way to build self-esteem is to do exactly what you’re afraid of doing. Fear looks, faith jumps.You’re the go-to person that everyone likes now because they think you have all the answers. However, you’re less interested in finding the solution to someone else’s problems than you are in escaping your own. Although you know that you can’t avoid your obligations forever, you’re still eager to test the limits if you can find others to join you in your little adventure. Keep in mind the words of Winston Churchill, “The price of greatness is responsibility.”
Virgo Horoscope Aug 23 – Sep 22
An unresolved family issue lurking in the shadows of your consciousness might suddenly explode into a full-blown melodrama today. Although it shouldn’t be a surprise, it’s still shocking when you realize the complexity of the situation. You can see many possible scenarios as you contemplate the various ways in which the current events could unfold. Naturally, you want to take everyone under your wing and save them from drowning in bad choices. Nevertheless, adopting a more detached approach enables you to be the calm in the center of the storm while empowering others to make their own decisions.
Libra Horoscope Sep 23 – Oct 22
Blaming someone else for your current anxiety isn’t the healthiest way to deal with your fears. Granted, irresponsible behavior can be quite upsetting if you assume that everyone will do exactly as promised. Unfortunately, you are likely to be let down today when reality doesn’t match your expectations. However, other people are just triggers, reminding you of painful memories from long ago. There is no reason to give your power away needlessly. Stop cheating on your future with your past.
Scorpio Horoscope Oct 23 – Nov 21
Concentrating on your work is challenging when there are so many other things that seem more interesting in the moment. Although exploring the complexity of human emotions in a relationship is fuel for your soul, there are pressing mundane issues that are currently fighting for your attention. Thankfully, you possess the power to aim your thoughts in any direction you choose. J.P. Morgan wrote, “The first step toward getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.”
Sagittarius Horoscope Nov 22 – Dec 21
You are excited about the potential you see in nearly everything that happens today. People around you are extremely talkative and you’re intrigued by what you hear. Nevertheless, you have more ideas than you know what to do with now; however, your inspiration could easily be drowned out by the intellectual noise of your interactions. Consciously limiting your social interactions is the best thing you can do to increase your current productivity. Stephen Covey reminds us that we’re not the product of our circumstances; we’re the products of our decisions.
Capricorn Horoscope Dec 22 – Jan 19
You prefer to start on one task and stick with it until every last detail is complete. However, you won’t likely have that luxury today with so many different activities vying for your time. Although you might try to simplify your schedule, there isn’t very much wiggle room on your calendar. Instead of wasting resources attempting the improbable, surrender to the complexity of the day with a smile. After all, the difference between success and failure is your attitude.
Aquarius Horoscope Jan 20 – Feb 18
You are eager to hang out with your colleagues in a social setting today, even if it means that you’re a little less productive than you planned. It’s not that you’re avoiding work; you’re simply reevaluating your life in a context larger than your job. Relying on friends to give you honest feedback is an important part of your current thinking process as you explore a variety of possible plans that can take you in very different directions. Remain neutral for now; Thomas Jefferson said, “Delay is preferable to error.”
Pisces Horoscope Feb 19 – Mar 20
You might expend quite a bit of energy defending your professional goals today because you actually believe them to be achievable. However, even your most sensible idea becomes unrealistic once it’s over-inflated. It’s tempting to take a simple plan and make it so complicated that you could not possibly execute it. Unfortunately, figuring it out as you go along isn’t a wise strategy, either. Take a step back, clear your mind, and refresh your perspective before moving forward.
