Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, November 21st

Our moods change so often today that we might worry that we can’t keep up with the watery Cancer Moon. Crabs vigilantly watch the tides, since survival depends upon their ability to anticipate the ever-shifting currents. Similarly, we must learn to increase our sensitivity and rely on our intuition. Our emotions receive an uplifting boost later this evening when the Sun slips into inspirational Sagittarius and the Moon joins jolly Jupiter.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Even if intense concentration is required at work today, you still may be distracted by a lingering personal issue. Thankfully, you can be so skilled at hiding what’s really happening that your associates believe you’re doing an amazing job. Accept whatever praise you receive; you don’t have to blow your cover — and you probably deserve the accolades anyway.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You enjoy working out of sight today, as long as you can readjust your action plan a few times during the day. Usually, you’re not a great fan of change, but shifting gears is easy now as you respond to what’s happening. It’s not useful to act as if you have all the answers. Listen to what others are saying and take their wisdom to heart.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Bringing your accounts current might require more time than you have now as the Moon visits your 2nd House of Money. Fiscal change appears to be in the air, but the results of your actions may not come quickly enough for you. However, impatience won’t lead to success today. Do what’s right and wait for the consequences of your extra efforts to work their magic.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You can be so psychic now that you know what’s happening even if no one tells you. Today’s Moon in receptive Cancer extends your emotional antennae even deeper into other people’s lives. Watch your moods swing back and forth throughout the day, and try not to make any significant decisions that could alter the course of your life. Nevertheless, considering all possibilities might pay off as soon as tomorrow when your optimism returns

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your day is mixed with paradox because you know that you’re on the edge of something big. And although it’s exciting to think that there are no limits to your far-reaching ideas now, you might have to face an unexpected obstacle that could feel like a setback. Fortunately, a seemingly insignificant social event can send you in a direction that is very advantageous to your career. Combining business with pleasure isn’t always a wise idea, but today it may be just what the doctor ordered for your success.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might choose to leave your personal worries behind by attending a social gathering today or participating in a team project. Either way, the Moon’s current visit to your 11th House of Community allows you to grow beyond your individual needs and to share your expertise with others. Don’t miss this opportunity to give something back to your peers. Fortunately, your positive attitude will be reflected back to you sooner than you think.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Although your friends might accuse you of playing the role of a mother hen at work today, your motives are purely altruistic. You want to share your love by taking care of others in the best way possible and the current Cancer Moon encourages you to express your emotions and nurture those around you. Pay close attention to subtle clues so you know when to back off or someone may get the idea that you’re just trying to control things, when you’re only trying to help

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Instead of letting personal issues overwhelm you now, blow off some excess energy by volunteering for a social cause. You can easily understand complex interpersonal dynamics so don’t be afraid to tell others exactly how you feel. Your perceptions are clear and your perspective is balanced while the Moon is moving through fellow water sign Cancer, so there’s no need to back down. Even if you make someone uncomfortable, honesty is almost always the best policy.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You are often drawn to philosophical discussions and can usually talk about ideas and concepts with a deep passion. However, you are likely to be more interested in personal issues today as the Moon moves through your 8th House of Intimacy. There’s no need to shy away from your emotions, even if they make you uncomfortable at first. Go right to the very edge of the abyss, since your feelings could teach you plenty about life now.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

If someone tells you his or her sad story today, you don’t have to take immediate action and fix what’s wrong. Instead, just be receptive and listen with a sympathetic ear. Your mistaken belief that you have to be in charge and demonstrate your competence only brings dissatisfaction and frustration. Sometimes it’s not easy to sit quietly and hold a space in your heart for other people’s issues; nevertheless, it’s a good idea now to incorporate this compassionate practice into your life.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You’re done trying to please everyone else. Instead of playing the role of superhero, be smart, work quietly behind the scenes and stay out of trouble. You can emerge victorious if you are secure enough to allow others to take center stage and receive recognition for their accomplishments. Even if you played a supportive role in someone’s success, it may be time to let that go. Learning to love yourself is likely to bring opportunities from somewhere you do not expect.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might not be very concerned about what others think of you today because you are acutely aware of what makes you happy now. Your clear perspective brings a new sense of emotional power. Nevertheless, you might not be overly eager to express your feelings out in the open. Go ahead and trust in the process; there is a direct correlation between showing your vulnerability and the amount of pleasure you experience later on.

Sagittarian Dreams – Bright possibilities emerge with the Sun in Sagittarius

Sagittarian Dreams

Bright possibilities emerge with the Sun in Sagittarius

Jeff Jawer   Jeff Jawer on the topics of sun, sagittarius, astrology

The Sun shifts from deep-feeling Scorpio to farseeing Sagittarius on November 21, marking a turn away from the reflective side of emotions and toward a dynamic expression of our aspirations.

Scorpio is a glass-half-empty zodiac sign that tends to combine concerns from the past and pressures of the present to interpret life as a struggle. Sagittarius, on the other hand, is able to ignore yesterday — and in some cases even the present — to project hope forward to a more desirable future.

The likelihood for fulfillment grows

Transforming Scorpio-style fears into Sagittarian dreams doesn’t happen automatically, though. Even if the shifting cosmic tides start flowing in an optimistic direction, we’re as likely to get lost in them as we are to find the happiness that we seek. Yet when we do Scorpio’s work of diving into our desires, assessing our resources and establishing priorities, the likelihood of achieving fulfillment grows.

This is not a process of denying doubts and fears, but one of examining them, determining which, if any, are useful, and letting go of those that have outlived their usefulness. Eliminating these negatives seems like it should be easy, yet we often are so identified with our wounds that we resist releasing them and turning our lives in a new direction. So much of who we think we are is enmeshed in a sense of limits where even the most consciously desirable freedoms are often resisted.

Do your dreams have a chance of coming true?

Refusing to look forward and dive into the future is only one way we hold back the tides of change. Another way to ensure our lives stay the same is to invest in dreams that have little likelihood of turning into reality. The potential to get lost in clouds of illusion is common with the Sun in Sagittarius, especially this week, when it squares nebulous Neptune on Sunday. This is an indirect and usually unconscious way to undermine progress, because the reward for failing to advance is getting to stay where we are.

A secret to bringing Sagittarian visions down from the clouds is to use the concentrated powers of Scorpio. The focus and determination of the latter cuts through the promises of the former, tapping into the essence of our aspirations. Scorpio is not about what we like; it’s about what we absolutely need. When a dream goes from being a vague hope to a detailed picture of desire, it finds the soil in which it can take root. The obstacles that stand in the way of achieving our goals are broken down by the intense commitment and drive that’s at the heart of Scorpio.

Look back with courage and forward with faith

When we think about the future, we usually don’t want to look back. Yet when we use the model of the zodiac sign preceding the one that we’re in, we will often determine whether we advance, stay stuck or regress. The promises of Sagittarius grow from the depths of Scorpio, and it will draw sustenance from the hunger or struggle it represents.

This reminds us that there’s little value in drawing a line between positive and negative, as they are essential parts of one another. The alchemy of achievement is created when both the faith to look forward and the courage to look back are a stirred together in the pot of possibility.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Thursday, November 21st

With a major portion of today occurring with the Sun in the last degree of Scorpio, it is a good time to reflect on your gains and losses of the past four weeks. Have you excelled at exploring the depths of your consciousness in order to eliminate old fears and doubts that may be blocking the flow of your creative artistry? Are you more adept at tuning into your spiritual willpower and mental concentration to be an entrepreneur with clout and finesse?  Steer clear of questionable investment offers as Vesta makes an off-kilter, 150-degree tie with often hazy Neptune (7:43AM). The Moon in Cancer continues a primary focus on healing old family wounds and pains.  A big change happens at 7:49PM when the Sun leaves watery Scorpio for fiery Sagittarius. Don’t be too surprised if you feel a sense of relief that some of the recent tensions may be in the process of dissolving away. A happy-go-lucky disposition is the right frame of mind to have during the monthly lunar conjunction with providential Jupiter (8:00PM).  Avoid overdoing a good thing a couple of hours later when the Sun makes a frictional, 45-degree tie with Venus (10:17PM). Keep a low profile overnight and avoid the social scene as the Moon begins a void uncertainty zone at 11:12PM that lasts until 3:58PM tomorrow. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Current Moon Phase for Nov. 21 – Waning Gibbous

Gibbous Moon

(waning /74% illumination)

This is a tremendous time of transmutation. All of the prior elements are coming together for a final burst of creative output. You have seen a clear view of your own needs and the posture of significant others. Now the accumulation of that input is leading to a deep, core change within you. In this phase, you will naturally be inclined to seek higher guidance so that you can emerge from this transformation successfully. The Disseminting Moon favors sharing what you have learned (and are learning) with others.

The Witch’s Magick Spell for Nov. 21 – Long Term Career Spell

goth114

Long Term Career Spell

On a piece of paper, write down all the obstacles you can think of that you are blocking your success. Include everything: the economy, specific people like your nasty boss, every circumstance, and every situation that opposes your success. Try to be as specific as possible.

Now for each obstacle on your list, get a black candle. And for each candle, carve one of the obstacles on your list onto the candle.

It’s best if you have an odd number of candles.

Anoint each candle with cinnamon oil.

Burn one candle each night, and scorch the edges of the paper a little bit each night. Do not burn your list completely until the final night and the final candle.

After you have burned your last black candle, take a gold or green candle. Gold and green are the colors of success. Choose a green candle if your main goal is to make more money, a gold one if it is to find a more satisfying career.

On a new piece of paper, list everything that you want in a job. Your dream job, if you will. Be specific as possible. As your green or gold success candle burns, burn this paper as well.

Focus and concentrate on manifesting your dream job. Now that you have eliminated all obstacles in your path with the black candles, it’s time to start focusing on attracting success.

Be patient, the answers will come to you and new opportunities will make themselves available.

Don’t be afraid of these opportunities. Recognize them for what they are—and go for it!

Your Daily Horoscopes for Wed., November 20th

We start the day feeling anxious but our nervous energy gradually begins to settle down once the jittery Gemini Moon shifts into contemplative Cancer at 6:22 am EST. The edginess is emphasized by mental Mercury’s very early morning alignment with high-strung Uranus, elevating our expectations and encouraging rebellious behavior. Later in the evening, Mercury hooks up with penetrating Pluto to deepen our thoughts and activate our inner worlds.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Unfortunately, an uncontrolled slip of the tongue today might create more negativity than you wish. Speaking impulsively today may cause regret, but you cannot take back what you say. Thankfully, paying careful attention to the potential impact of your words prior to opening your mouth could prevent an unnecessary headache later on. Stopping to consider other people’s feelings first should be enough to save the day.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

There’s no reason to be in a hurry today even if you’re trying to resolve the tension between you and a loved one. Although you might be feeling a sense of urgency, taking your time may be the most intelligent tactic you can employ now. Thankfully, stressful emotions should settle down on their own, enabling you to process the previously frazzled energy. Don’t bother looking for quick solutions. Your inner guide will reveal the best path, but only if you have the wisdom to slow down and wait for the inspiration.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Accomplish as much as possible today, especially since you may grow less ambitious over the days ahead. By working harder you can burn off some excess energy which increases your ability to concentrate on one thing at a time. But don’t think that you’ll miss something important just because you choose to narrow your focus. Instead of obsessively competing with others for a more dominant role now, perform your job to the best of your ability and then move on to what’s next.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

If you’re worried about the final outcome of a situation, remember that everything unfolds at its own rate and resolution may remain out of reach for now. Luckily, something unusual could happen today that snaps you out of your anxiety, even if no one else wants to acknowledge how much has changed in just a few short hours. You should explain your newfound optimism, especially if others are working hard to hide the truth. Just remember that blame doesn’t help your cause. Lead by example to make your point.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You dream about escaping now, instead of facing how much work there is for you to do. Happily, you may be able to sneak away from a few unpleasant chores today by simply going into hiding. However, denial isn’t a viable option because it doesn’t offer a lasting solution. It’s okay to withdraw a bit, but stay grounded and ready to interact if needed. A surprising turn of events might just change things for the better.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Relaxing your focus on work may seem like a good idea but could leave you feeling a bit lost. The Moon sidles into your egalitarian 11th House of Friends this morning, enabling you to maintain a cool demeanor in most social situations. Broadening your horizons and expanding your network gives you and others much-needed hope. But don’t allow the present situation to dictate what’s real. Open your eyes to all of the possibilities and take a leap of faith.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You might be stressed out by your current need to feel your own power today, especially if someone important seems to be blocking your personal expression. Thankfully, time is on your side now, so don’t make up reasons to speed up the pace or you may just have to work harder than necessary. Nevertheless, don’t be afraid to add your two cents while you still have something to say that could dissipate the resistance.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

A wave of uncertainty grows stronger and may dissuade you from attempting to manifest your dreams. However, this is not a great day to sit back and talk about unrealized potential. Wake up and get going as early as possible because you have a lot of work to do and the sooner you start, the sooner you will finish. You can make solid progress now if you put away your doubts and believe in yourself.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You aren’t in the mood to do a whole lot of relationship processing today, but a complex array of circumstances appears to push you in the direction of self-analysis anyhow. Thankfully, you stand to gain crucial insight now, even if you were already sure that you knew the score. Remember, you can’t just walk away from your obligations. Thankfully, once you accept the inevitable and consciously face your fears, you could be amazed by how fast things can improve.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your natural inclination may be to prevent others from seeing your vulnerability by hiding the true you from sight. Nevertheless, you have a deep reservoir of courage; it’s time now to dig it up and use it accordingly to stand up to your ghosts of relationships past. Messenger Mercury’s supportive sextile to transformational Pluto motivates you to sink to the bottom of the well so you can reinvent yourself out of sight. Just remember that once your inner work is done, the key to growth is in honest communication with those you love.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You might know exactly how to improve your health now, yet you don’t want to tell anyone about your current realizations. Worse, you may be tempted to take no action at all, even if change is desperately needed. Luckily, you’re smart enough to understand the importance of taking care of yourself. Resist the waves of complacency and break free from the status quo by enlisting the support of someone you trust. Make the most of the power of now.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may attempt to hide your vulnerabilities from others today and go to great lengths in order to protect your feelings. However, there’s no need to be overly dramatic now as you demonstrate your fondness for someone special. Nevertheless, expressing your desires isn’t only about clearing the air; it also improves your chances of getting what you want. The squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, Nov. 20th

Yesterday’s Chiron station is still having repercussions through the psychic atmosphere because it is still virtually motionless while no longer retrograde. Meanwhile, interest continues to grow in a wide variety of healing techniques as Mercury trines Chiron (2:17AM). This positive alignment occurs while the Moon is compromised by being void in Gemini until 3:24AM.  Once the lunar orb enters Cancer (3:24AM), turn your attention to dealing with important home and family concerns. Spruce up your kitchen and bath areas. Cooking and baking are back in style. Learn more about your family tree and take a stroll down memory lane by looking through old photo albums and school yearbooks. Investment planning receives a notable boost as Vesta forms an inspirational, 72-degree link with usually benevolent Jupiter (9:37AM).  Your psychic sensitivity can grow by leaps and bounds as Mercury makes a supportive, 60-degree tie with Pluto (6:10PM) while the Moon in Cancer orchestrates the building of a Grand Triangle in water signs by forming flowing trines with Chiron in Pisces (9:44PM) and Mercury in Scorpio (11:56PM). Any Grand Triangle has the capacity to open up the sixth sense in human beings — allowing the hidden dimensions of divinity to become temporarily visible for those whose consciousness is resonating to life in the spirit realms. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Revolution Day (Mexican)

Waning Moon

The Waning Moon is a time for study, meditation, and little magickal work (except magick designed to banish harmful energies).

Moon Sign: Gemini

Gemini: Things begun now are easily changed by outside influence. Time for shortcuts, communication, games and fun.

Cancer: Stimulate emotional rapport between people. Pinpoints need, supports growth and nurturance. Tends to domestic concerns.

Incense: Myrrh

Color: White

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, November 19th

A growing sense of optimism continues to be the major theme today as the flighty Gemini Moon helps us sever attachments to unproductive negative emotions. We’re still dealing with intense feelings, yet the weight of our worries seems to be lighter now as active Mars forms a supportive sextile with confident Jupiter, enabling us to channel energies that were previously blocked. Changing our attitudes can transform challenges into accomplishments.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You’re feeling your oats today and are ready to express your newfound confidence through direct action. Your key planet Mars is supported by the larger-than-life visions of Jupiter, encouraging you to put your very best foot forward. But don’t just fall into the more-is-better trap, especially when taking on a new project. It’s easier to start off small and expand later than it is to overextend and then have to cut back when you’ve gone too far.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Normally, you can set a pace and sustain it until you reach your goal. But now you may be so caught up in the excitement of the present moment that you forget about your limits; you might even believe that you are invincible. Fortunately, your actions still could bring good fortune, even if you rush in today before considering the consequences. However, it’s tempting to be distracted by the next captivating idea or shiny object. Consciously focusing on a single destination is your best assurance that you’ll arrive on time.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You might become involved in stressful relationship dynamics at work today even if you approach the situation with a sense of detachment. Although you can’t prevent other people’s feelings from impacting your life, you can choose where to put your attention. Thankfully, you’re able to distance yourself from someone else’s drama if you establish clear boundaries and stick to them. Ironically, you may be most helpful now by retreating enough to maintain your emotional balance so you lead by example instead.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You have enough stamina today to finish whatever you start, so push yourself to accomplish as much as you can. However, your exuberance could pull you in too many directions, mostly as a result of your need for amusement. Remember, the more dedicated you are to your work, the sooner you’ll be able to freely apply your excess energy to fun activities. Seize this opportunity to strut your stuff and prove your strength.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Not everyone understands your methods today, but you still may receive the recognition you want anyhow. Meanwhile, you are content to play a role behind the scenes in support of a larger goal now, and naturally, this makes you a better team player. Whether at work or at home, be sure to include others in what you are doing to help your cause. Shining your spirit of generosity won’t lead you astray.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Approaching your career goals in a new way might make all the difference in the world. Perhaps you are growing tired of doing something with such regularity that it is beginning to get on your nerves. However, you could find the courage to try an alternate method today. Fortunately, if it doesn’t work, you can go back to the drawing board to create another plan. But if it does succeed, this little breakthrough brings you joy during the days ahead.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

An uncharacteristic longing for an exotic adventure can impact your daily routine today. Your imagination is more vivid than usual, making it necessary to keep your fantasies to yourself now. There’s nothing wrong with escaping into your dream world for a while, but sharing your inner process at work is quite challenging. Unless you want to complicate things at work, wait until you are safely at home before you let your guard down. Reveal your desires only to someone you trust.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

It feels as if you know what you need but someone close to you has become a fly in your ointment today, oblivious to your desires. Nevertheless, you’re optimistic about your potential; you know that success is yours if you maintain a positive attitude and continue to do the work. If you recently suffered from low self-esteem, it’s time to reconnect with a more positive view of you. Leave your doubts behind; set new goals and move boldly toward them.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

There’s not much that can bring you down today because your key planet Jupiter is receiving an energetic blast from red-hot Mars. Someone might think that you have gone over the top, but you probably believe there is still room for more. For everyone’s sake, don’t expect anyone to match your level of enthusiasm. Although you may be soaring high above the clouds, remember that other people are still on the ground.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your behavior gives away your heart’s desires today, and there is little you can do to hide what you want. The good news is that satisfaction is within reach, but not if you just assume you should have whatever you wish because you deserve it. Feeling self-confident is a great start, but a positive attitude is not enough on its own; you must earn your rewards now through hard work. Thankfully, you’ll be smiling soon enough if you keep the distractions to a minimum.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Expressing your enthusiasm at work is normally a smart strategy, yet it might get you into major trouble now. Unfortunately, knowing you should keep your big ideas to yourself probably won’t be much of a deterrent. Luckily, you can minimize conflict if you simply stay aware of everything that’s happening around you. However, problems arise when you forget about using your common sense. Others are watching your every move; if they tell you that you’re overstepping your bounds, listen to them before it’s too late.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have an enormous reserve of positive energy today, yet you might burn through it without even realizing what you’ve done. Thankfully, a little caution goes a long way and you can easily remember to conserve your resources now before it’s too late. Most everyone is willing to appreciate what you do, but you have such a complex agenda that you could get tripped up by your own desires. The clearer you are about your motives, the better the outcome.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of November 18th

Actions may speak louder than words this week, thanks to a positive dose of expansive Martian energy. On Tuesday, Mars will link up to Jupiter, offering plenty of confidence and gusto to pursue your heart’s desire. On Saturday, Venus will be at a sextile to Saturn, helping keep both feet on the ground while you allow your heart to soar. By Sunday, however, the Sun will square off with Neptune, and all may not be what it appears to be despite your idealism.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your heart takes flight this week when the Sun, ruler of your 5th House of Romance, enters optimistic Sagittarius on Thursday. You may feel a stronger sense of wanderlust, and if so now will be an ideal time to consider a vacation with your sweetheart. The more exotic the better! On Sunday, you might feel all warm and fuzzy as you and your love enjoy a spiritual connection that may feel too good to be true. Ask your lover to pinch you so you know you’re not really dreaming.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

A scintillating conversation with your lover will likely get your heart racing on Tuesday. Even if you can’t see each other on this day, be sure to spend time on the phone or exchange a few sexy text messages. If you live together, the act of your mate doing housework or cooking dinner will really turn you on. Don’t forget to offer a proper thank you! On Saturday, Venus will be at a supportive link to Saturn and you’ll take a step back to feel grateful for where you are in your relationship: Secure.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Talking to a coworker you trust about an intimate matter in your personal life may help you sort things out on Wednesday. If it’s a colleague you have romantic feelings for, you might be surprised at how easy it is to reveal your emotional state by Saturday. Although your focus will be on committed partnership after Thursday, you might have the one you love on a higher pedestal than he or she deserves — especially on Sunday. Open your heart … and your eyes.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You and your partner may work together to make a vital decision on Wednesday. Whatever is happening, know that the choice you make as a couple will further empower your relationship. On Saturday, you’ll continue to enjoy a feeling of solidarity with your mate. If you have children together, you’ll be in complete agreement over how to handle a testy situation. If you don’t, you may create a framework around a joint creative endeavor. One thing is certain: This week your relationship will be rock-solid.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Romance will take center stage this week, which will surely delight you. The catch? You may be so enamored with the glamorous trappings of your love life that you neglect to separate fantasy from reality. The good news is that with the Sun entering your romance sector on Thursday, you’ll shine a light on making love … and making love work. Still, a nasty square from the Sun to Neptune on Sunday might leave you licking wounds of disappointment when it comes to your intimate life. A fantasy might be better off kept to yourself — at least for now.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You’ll have plenty of motivation to spice up your social life early in the week, which will help your love life, ultimately. On Tuesday, consider attending a meeting or other social function. If single, you might not leave the event alone! On Saturday, a stabilizing conversation between you and your sweetheart (if attached) will convince you that working together strategically is what it takes to make any love relationship work. A joint decision you make on this day will stand the test of time.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Behind the scenes support from your partner might be the catalyst prompting you to reach for new professional heights. Although your mate could prefer to remain a silent cheerleader, don’t underestimate his or her ability to make you feel capable of achieving your goals. By Saturday, you and your partner will likely feel more secure about a domestic or financial matter. If you’re considering an investment in real estate, you’ll be on the same page when it comes to how much you can realistically afford.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

A serious conversation about a love relationship will be in order this week, and it may take place on Wednesday or Saturday. This might not even be a talk with your mate, but it could be a private dialogue you have with yourself instead. Don’t avoid this honest assessment. If you can sort out whatever holds you back in matters of the heart, it’s possible you’ll finally feel free to give your all in love. With Saturn in your sign, you are certainly ready for commitment. The question is, have you found the right person to commit to?
