Weekly Horoscope Sunday, November 13 to Saturday, November 19, 2022

All Signs

This is a tricky week. Some wonderful planetary influences will encourage and help you to work hard and be productive. You’ll shine! Note: Get credit for what you do! However, there does exist some counteractive influences that will encourage some people to steal your light and perhaps even work against you. Therefore, your best option this week is to work as independently as possible. Steer your own ship. Hang out with people who have your best interests at heart. Be watchful. And if you think something fishy is going on – it is! Life is too short for boxed wine and people who don’t have your back. Amen.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

With Mars in your House of Communications, you have been gangbusters on a daily basis since mid-August. Lots of energy to burn to get things done! You’ve also been effective in working and talking to others. Oh yes, you’re PowerPoint on steroids. However, now that Mars is retrograde, the shine of your communications has dimmed. Nevertheless, you can still attract money, favours and help from others this week. Do not let power struggles at home and possibly with your kids, hold you back. You’ve earned all the help you can get, so take the money and run. Ka-ching!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a popular time for you, which means you are enjoying seeing friends as well as interacting with clubs and organizations. In fact, these interactions can favourably influence you to modify future goals. (Keep that in mind.) Right now, your involvement with spouses, partners and close friends is important. Fortunately, things are supportive. Nevertheless, do not let your relations with those who are closest to you be threatened by siblings, relatives, neighbours or a family member. Step back so that you have enough space to function in your closest partnerships. Avoid negative influences. Keep the air around you fresh and clean!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might feel a bit stalled in the water because Mars is retrograde in your sign. Fear not, it’s there, but it’s subtle. It’s not a big deal. You simply have to recalibrate your expectations of yourself and others. Cut yourself some slack. In fact, give yourself a pat on the back for what you do accomplish. (“It’s hard out there without your towel.”) Ironically, this week, you are all systems go because you will be productive, and coworkers will be supportive. Don’t let financial restraints, or someone who holds the purse strings, or siblings and relatives, create problems for you. You don’t need this. Go with what works and steer clear of negative energy that might get in your way. (“Where is my huff? I know I brought it with me, and now I must leave.”)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

It’s important for you to remain independent this week. Do your own thing. Trust your judgment. This is a lovely week to enjoy schmoozing with others, and checking out music, the theatre and the arts, as well as exciting sports events and fun times with children. Romance is also favoured! Yes, all these enjoyable experiences are possible for you. Accept invitations from positive people whom you trust. The trick is to avoid power struggles, especially those that are work-related. And also, stop being your own worst critic. Don’t listen to that voice that says you don’t deserve this much fun. You do!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Family relations and events happening with your home, will be positive this week. You’ll be pleased with home repairs that get done. You might tweak your digs and redecorate a bit. (After all, Leos are royalty and their home is their castle.) It’s a great week to entertain at home especially Monday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. (So many opportunities to share good food and drink during lively conversation with friends!) Nevertheless, you have a generous heart and you do things in a grand style. Don’t let yourself be exploited by others. Avoid takers or those who are envious of you. But don’t let this stop you from being a host to those who are grateful for your company and generosity. Your enthusiasm is contagious!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This is an optimistic, upbeat week for you! You’re keen to travel, take short trips and talk to others. Many of you are writing and studying more than usual or taking courses because this is an excellent time to learn something. You also have a busy schedule with errands, appointments and visits with siblings and relatives. Oh yeah, you’re on the go! Enjoy this busy pace! Enjoy talking to others and don’t let anyone else rain on your parade. Avoid a power struggle with a friend or member of a group. Someone or something behind the scenes might try to guilt trip you. Hey, you’re entitled to your own happiness. You are entitled to make your own decisions. And yes, you’re entitled to your guilty pleasures.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Rewarding news! Encouraging events related to your job or your work might boost your income. Or perhaps, you are making an exciting purchase related to your job, possibly your health? Whatever the case, you are pleased with financial news this week; and it feels good to have bucks in jeans. Nevertheless, a parent or an authority figure might give you some static or try a power struggle with you. Possibly a friend or a member of a group will throw shade on your plans? Don’t let this hold you back. This is the year for you to improve your existing job or get a better job and make more money – so do it. You deserve this.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You are empowered because as this week begins, the Sun, Mercury and Venus are in your sign. As the week progresses, you will attract money to you, and probably spend it on beautiful things for yourself and loved ones. (So what? You know what you’re doing.) Meanwhile, avoid power struggles about controversial subjects or something to do with travel plans, publishing, the media or the law. You might even encounter a dispute about a pet or your health. Don’t let this get to you! Whether, it’s an authority figure or someone else who tries to bring you down – avoid these people. Stick with people who are truly on your side.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This week things are relatively low key for you. Enjoy peace and quiet. Nevertheless, this is also a positive week and an excellent time for you to make future plans, especially setting goals for your personal year ahead (birthday to birthday). Avoid power struggles about money, cash flow, salaries and potential purchases. You don’t need this. Likewise, responding to controversial subjects (perhaps on Facebook?) might depress you. Optimism and physical activity are survival issues for Sagittarians. It’s important for you to maintain a positive frame of mind and believe that something better is just around the corner. Protect your sunny heart. (Hope is the feeling you have that the feeling you have isn’t permanent.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You are enjoying dealing with friends and groups, especially in your community, because you like to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Right now, you have a chance to do this. In particular, you might work with younger, creative people. Don’t worry if your energy at work is less or their energy is less – it’s just what’s happening. Meanwhile, it so happens this is an excellent time you to set goals. And your enthusiasm this week will contribute to and shape your ideas for your long-term future. However, you might get ambushed by someone. This person could be a neighbour or relative, sibling or someone in a bank or someone with whom you do business or share property? Steer clear of negative vibes! Protect yourself.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You continue to look great to others because a handful of planets are at the top of your chart, which makes you look competent, especially in the eyes of authority figures. Enjoy this great press! Use it to go after what you want. But be aware that there might be people out there who are jealous. Or perhaps you will encounter power struggles with partners, close friends, even your kids. Don’t let this break your stride because if you can distance yourself from negative energy, this is a very strong week for you. Don’t worry about getting your ducks lined up in a row. Now is the time to go after what you want. Don’t listen to conservative cautions. Hey – a bird in the hand is messy!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a positive week for you, and many of you are already starting to see that you’re getting richer. “Come to mama! Baby needs a new pair of shoes!” Believe in your ability to boost your earnings because it exists. You have a lot of watery, touchy-feely energy that taps into the energy of the universe. No question. Therefore, it’s important for you to stay positive and believe in yourself to make the Law of Attraction work for you. (You know this.) Do not listen to the naysayers this week, because they will be lurking. This is your best chance in over a decade to earn more money or attract financial good fortune to you. Believe in yourself. He who hesitates is miles from the next exit.

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Cancer.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Something unexpected might impact your family or your home today. For starters, check bank accounts etc. because some kind of support (perhaps financial or practical) might be suddenly withheld or delayed. Possibly someone who was willing to help you will change their mind?

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Pay attention to everything you say and do because this is a mildly accident-prone day for your sign. Meanwhile, a friend or partner might surprise you by suggesting something you least expect. (This is not a boring day.) Definitely, stay flexible and light on your feet.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Guard your possessions today. Something unexpected might impact your assets. You might find money; you might lose money. Be smart and protect what you own against loss, theft or damage. This surprise might even be work-related or something hidden, behind the scenes. Hmmm.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today you might be caught off guard by unexpected events. Parents should note that this is a mildly accident-prone day for their kids. Social plans might suddenly change. Accept an unexpected invitation. Double check existing social plans. Avoid sports accidents.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a restless day for you because things that are going on behind the scenes might impact your family or something to do with your home and private life. Stay on the ball so that you know what’s happening. Stock the fridge because unexpected company might drop by.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Quite possibly, a friend or a member of a group will throw you a curveball today. Someone will do something you least expect. Maybe a group will decide to take a new position on something? Possibly, you will encounter a real character today, someone colourful and different?

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Someone in authority, a boss, parent, teacher or member of the police might do something that surprises you today. “Busted!” Knowing this ahead of time, do some damage control. Take care of loose ends. Meanwhile, show respect to others. Never underestimate the value of courtesy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Travel plans might suddenly change today. They might be cancelled or delayed. Alternatively, you might have to travel when you least expected to do so. Likewise, school schedules might change along with matters related to the law and medicine. Be alert!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Make friends with your bank account today because something unexpected could impact your funds and assets or something to do with inheritances and insurance issues. Likewise, something unexpected might affect an arrangement you have with someone about shared property or something that is jointly held. Be in the know!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Your best option today is to cooperate with others, especially partners and close friends. Don’t give them any static. Just go along to get along. Even then, something unexpected might catch you off guard. It might involve a younger friend or a younger acquaintance in a group.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Something to do with your work routine will be interrupted today. Something unexpected will happen. Therefore, be smart and give yourself extra time so that you have wiggle room to deal with the unexpected. Likewise, you might hear surprising news related to your health or a pet. (Be vigilant.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Please be aware that that this is an accident-prone day for your kids. It could be minor (split milk), or it could be something more serious. Therefore, keep your eyes peeled. Meanwhile, social plans will suddenly change. They might be delayed or cancelled. Conversely, you might receive a surprising invitation. (Act quickly because this window of opportunity will be brief.)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress, TV host Whoopi Goldberg (1955) shares your birthday today. You are an excellent judge of character. You have common sense and wisdom and you are passionate about your beliefs. This is why people listen to you. This is a more social year for you. Enjoy yourself! Let your guard down and loosen up a bit! Old friends might rekindle friendships.

Flying Saucer Crash Lands in Utah Desert

Image Credit: USAF 388th Range Sqd., Genesis Mission, NASA

Explanation: A flying saucer from outer space crash-landed in the Utah desert after being tracked by radar and chased by helicopters. The year was 2004, and no space aliens were involved. The saucer, pictured here, was the Genesis sample return capsule, part of a human-made robot Genesis spaceship launched in 2001 by NASA itself to study the Sun. The unexpectedly hard landing at over 300 kilometers per hour occurred because the parachutes did not open as planned. The Genesis mission had been orbiting the Sun collecting solar wind particles that are usually deflected away by Earth’s magnetic field. Despite the crash landing, many return samples remained in good enough condition to analyze. So far, Genesis-related discoveries include new details about the composition of the Sun and how the abundance of some types of elements differ across the Solar System. These results have provided intriguing clues into details of how the Sun and planets formed billions of years
