There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Leo.
Social plans might suddenly change today. For example, you might receive an unexpected invitation or an event might be cancelled. Parents take note: This is an accident-prone day for your kids so be extra vigilant. Know where they are at all times.
Your home routine will be interrupted today by something unexpected. Small appliances might break down or a minor breakage could occur. Someone unexpected might knock at the door. (Get dressed.) It might be wise to stock the fridge because people are always happy if you are offer them food.
Your daily routine will change today because of something unexpected. Pay attention to everything you say and do so you can avoid an accident. New faces, new places and new ideas will shake things up. Avoid confrontations with others. (You don’t need this.)
Keep an eye on your money and your assets today because something unexpected could impact them. For example, you might find money or you might lose money. Something that you own might be lost, stolen or damaged. On the upside, you might have a clever, moneymaking idea!
Today the Moon is in your sign at odds with unpredictable Uranus and fiery Mars. For starters, this is an accident-prone influence. Guard against knee-jerk reactions and rash behaviour. Please be smart and count to three before you do anything today. Be mindful.
This is a restless day for you – no question. You feel vaguely disconcerted. Don’t worry about this funny feeling because it will be gone by tomorrow. Just sit this one out and resist the urge to do something on impulse, especially if you’re not sure what to do. Better to do nothing.
Today you will be surprised by a friend or member of a group. They might say or do something you least expect. Or they might make a strange demand of you? Possibly, you will meet someone who is unusual in some way. The key is not to overreact or to act too quickly.
Use tact and discretion when talking to parents, bosses, VIPs and the police today because things are unpredictable. They might react in way you least expect. Tread carefully; and never underestimate the power of courtesy. Be smart and show respect for authority figures to make your life easier. (Ya think?)
Travel plans will almost certainly be cancelled today or delayed or changed in some way. Therefore, allow yourself extra time to deal with the unexpected. Alternatively, some of you will suddenly have to travel when you did not expect to do so. Meanwhile – avoid controversial subjects!
Be smart and check your bank accounts, or details related to inheritances, insurance matters and anything that you own jointly with others – this includes taxes and debt. This is because something to do with these areas will surprise you today. “Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!”
Conversations with partners, close friends and members of the general public will hold some surprises for you today. Someone close to you might make a strange demand or request? Or they might do something that you least expect? Easy does it.
Your work routine will change today because of power outages, computer glitches, equipment breakdowns, staff shortages, fire drills – something. Be aware of this so that you can deal with whatever happens with grace and confidence. We are all in this Big Soup together.
Actor Joel Kinnaman (1979) shares your birthday today. You are a sensitive, compassionate, caring person. You are also creative, idealistic and spiritual. These are qualities that make others like you and trust you. This is a vibrant, lively year for you because it involves change, stimulation and the discovery of greater personal freedom for yourself. New directions and new growth will come easily to you. (Trust your intuition.)


NOVEMBER 24 birthday horoscope predicts that you are a Sagittarius who is straight up and but optimistic. What others consider as being blunt and hurtful, you say it’s honest real talk. You never actually mean anyone harm.
The November 24 birthday personality is a positive and adventure seeking individual who loves the outdoors. You love exploring new lands and discovering new people. In short, those of you born on this day love life!
As the November 24 zodiac sign is Sagittarius, you have a charming personality. Your inner beauty shines right through you. You have strong ties to your spiritual beliefs and are a bright individual.
Your friends certainly think so, and you have a lot of friends. However, the November 24 horoscope suggests that you attract lovers who are not right for you or rather they are not like you. Sometimes, you have difficulty committing to someone who doesn’t share your views.
Your family, however, say you have remained close to them and find solace in traditional values. You may be too dependent on your loved ones especially if you have children.
This Sagittarius birthday as a parent tends to hang on to her/his “babies” for too long. There comes a time in every parent’s life that they must let go so their children can grow. It’s the only way to have experienced adults who can be productive and successful in life.
As far as the health of the November 24 birthday personality is concerned, you tend to take care of yourself, but you use limited resources. Although eating a balanced and wholesome meal constitutes some effort in the right direction, it is not enough.
Finding a workout plan just for you is not as hard as it used to be. You don’t even have to go to the gym anymore. Personal trainers are at your fingertips with today’s technology. Incorporating a fitness plan into your daily routine is feasible and very doable. Try a few at the same time and decide on one. Then try your second choice or maybe combine them all into one regimen tailored for your needs and desires.
The future of person who born on November 24 predicts that you make an excellent communicator or speaker/writer. You have all the makings for a job in public relations. Your attitude is great. You wear a smile all the time.
You aren’t afraid to stand up for yourself or for what you believe in. This could be an excellent choice for you. If that does not excite you, then perhaps a life of the entertainer or performance artist should. The media industry is wide open to someone with a November 24 birthday. It might as well be you in the spotlight.
This November 24 Sagittarius is generally in control… it’s where you want to be at all times. Usually, if you have to give up your freedom for a lover or a job, then you are not a happy camper. They may have to find a replacement for you sooner than later if this happens.
If today is your birthday, you are people who live life a bit on the wild side. Vacations are usually exciting trips that include something risky or dangerous like mountain climbing or skydiving. You love this kind of stuff.
On the other hand, you can be impulsive and highly intolerant of others. As the November 24 horoscope rightly says, you are likely suited to have a seat on the city council. At your best, the media is calling your name. There are a variety of things that you could be as you are vocal and you can write. As we talked about your health, you could stand some improvements, but you are on the right track.

2021 November 25

Explanation: Shaped like a cone tapering into space, the Earth’s dark central shadow or umbra has a circular cross-section. It’s wider than the Moon at the distance of the Moon’s orbit though. But during the lunar eclipse of November 18/19, part of the Moon remained just outside the umbral shadow. The successive pictures in this composite of 5 images from that almost total lunar eclipse were taken over a period of about 1.5 hours. The series is aligned to trace part of the cross-section’s circular arc, with the central image at maximum eclipse. It shows a bright, thin sliver of the lunar disk still beyond the shadow’s curved edge. Of course, even within the shadow the Moon’s surface is not completely dark, reflecting the reddish hues of filtered sunlight scattered into the shadow by Earth’s atmosphere.

Ancient Egyptian Goddess Isis and God Osiris
At the ancient Egyptian temples of Philae, Nubians gave new life to a vanishing religious tradition.
Hathor.When the Romans conquered Egypt in 30 B.C., the country’s system of temples, which had sustained religious traditions dating back more than 3,000 years, began to slowly wither away. Starved of the funds that pharaohs traditionally supplied to religious institutions, priests lost their vocation and temples fell into disuse throughout the country. The introduction of Christianity in the first century a.d. only hastened this process. But there was one exception to this trend: In the temples on the island of Philae in the Nile River, rites dedicated to the goddess Isis and the god Osiris continued to be celebrated in high style for some 500 years after the Roman conquest. This final flowering of ancient Egyptian religion was only possible because of the piety and support of Egypt’s neighbors to the south, the Nubians.
Philae lies just south of the Nile’s first cataract—one of six rapids along the river—which marked the historical border between ancient Egypt and Nubia, also known as Kush. In this region of Kush, called Lower Nubia, the temple complex at Philae was just one of many that were built on islands in the Nile and along its banks. Throughout the long history of Egypt and Nubia, Lower Nubia was a kind of buffer zone between these two lands and a place…

2021 November 24

Explanation: Have you ever seen the Pleiades star cluster? Even if you have, you probably have never seen it as large and clear as this. Perhaps the most famous star cluster on the sky, the bright stars of the Pleiades can be seen without binoculars from even the depths of a light-polluted city. With a long exposure from a dark location, though, the dust cloud surrounding the Pleiades star cluster becomes very evident. The featured exposure, taken from Florida, USA, covers a sky area several times the size of the full moon. Also known as the Seven Sisters and M45, the Pleiades lies about 400 light years away toward the constellation of the Bull (Taurus). A common legend with a modern twist is that one of the brighter stars faded since the cluster was named, leaving only six of the sister stars visible to the unaided eye. The actual number of Pleiades stars visible, however, may be more or less than seven, depending on the darkness of the surrounding sky and the clarity of the observer’s eyesight.

A spirit animal is a healer, messenger, or teacher that has a special relationship with an individual. A spirit animal appears in the form of an animal that has a special appeal to the individual.
Spirit animals also go by the names animal helpers, powerful allies, spirit helpers, and animal guides. A spirit animal chooses you – you don’t choose your spirit ally.
Actually, if you feel a certain attachment to a spirit animal, it means that this animal has already chosen you.
This animal plays an important role in an individual’s life. It’s there to protect you, impart important lessons, and give you the guidance to make it in life.
It also provides you with power, wisdom, and immense knowledge.
Shamans and spiritual ministers from across the globe have relied on the wisdom and guidance of spirit animals since time immemorial.
Closely associated with spirit animals are animal totems. An animal totem is a symbol of your animal guide.
An animal totem is indicated by such symbols as jewelry, statue, crest, emblem, talisman, or a totem pole.
A totem can be used by a family lineage, a class of like-minded individuals, or an individual.
Your totem animal has the power to influence you throughout your life. This is because you feel a very strong affinity to the animal that has chosen you.

Explanation: Why are the regions above sunspots so hot? Sunspots themselves are a bit cooler than the surrounding solar surface because the magnetic fields that create them reduce convective heating. It is therefore unusual that regions overhead — even much higher up in the Sun’s corona — can be hundreds of times hotter. To help find the cause, NASA directed the Earth-orbiting Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) satellite to point its very sensitive X-ray telescope at the Sun. Featured here is the Sun in ultraviolet light, shown in a red hue as taken by the orbiting Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). Superimposed in false-colored green and blue is emission above sunspots detected by NuSTAR in different bands of high-energy X-rays, highlighting regions of extremely high temperature. Clues about the Sun’s atmospheric heating mechanisms come from NuSTAR images like this and shed light on solar nanoflares and microflares as brief bursts of energy that may drive the unusual heating.
Color correspondence is the way that the use of color will affect your magickal workings. From the color of the candles that you use to the color of clothes that you wear
It should be noted that this type of correspondence is not just associated with pagan followings or metaphysics. There is scientific evidence about the relationship of color to mood, success and growth. In many penal systems, when an inmate acts out of line (eq. gets in a fight), they are put into a “pink room” for a short time. This, under short duration, is said to calm the suspect. But long time exposure to pinks or reds can have exactly the opposite effect.

The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waning Gibbous Phase. This is the first phase after the Full Moon occurs. It lasts roughly 7 days with the Moon’s illumination growing smaller each day until the Moon becomes a Last Quarter Moon with an illumination of 50%. The average Moon rise for this phase is between 9pm and Midnight depending on the age of the phase. The moon rises later and later each night setting after sunrise in the morning. During this phase the Moon can also be seen in the early morning daylight hours on the western horizon.
Visit the November 2021 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.
The Waning Gibbous on November 23 has an illumination of 85%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On November 23 the Moon is 18.44 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.
There are 8 lunar phases the Moon goes through in its 29.53 days lunar cycle. The 4 major Moon phases are Full Moon, New Moon, First Quarter and Last Quarter. Between these major phases, there are 4 minor ones: the Waxing Crescent, Waxing Gibbous, Waning Gibbous and Waning Crescent. For more info on the Moon Cycle and on each phase check out Wikipedia Lunar Phase page.
