Winter Love Horoscopes

Keep your love life burning strong during winter 2013 – 2014!

Jeff Jawer    Jeff Jawer on the topics of winter, love, horoscopes, astrology

 

We love to get warm with a sweetie during winter, and this one is almost perfect for patient people. New relationships can take some time to heat up with amorous Venus turning retrograde on December 21. This alluring planet’s reversal period lasts until January 31, making this an excellent period to make repairs in your current relationship. Getting clearer about what you want with Venus in responsible Capricorn might not sound sexy, but could provide the magic to revive passion with your partner or put you on track to connecting with someone new.

Taking that first step toward addressing a problem or breaking the ice may be done cautiously with supposedly aggressive Mars on his best behavior in super polite Libra. Signals could be misread when we’re so concerned about rubbing someone the wrong way, which is why clarity is a must. Strong desires expressed graciously are bound to overcome obstacles and soften the hardest hearts.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

The good news this season is that your passionate planet Mars is in your 7th House of Partners all winter, increasing your chances for making romantic connections. The bad news is that it’s in restrained Libra, which can slow down your pursuit of pleasure. Dealing with indecisive people or having to tiptoe around someone’s sensitivity could put a damper on spontaneity. But in exchange for having less dramatic encounters you should be more strategic in going after who and what you want. Just be charming and considerate of others and you’ll be amazed at how a seemingly cool relationship can turn into a very hot one.

December ends on a passionate note with intense Mars aspects from December 25 until the New Year. Yet even if you miss opportunities to play then, Mars forms sexy squares with his alluring partner Venus on January 16 and March 2 that should spice up your personal life when the mood could change from feisty to flirty in an instant, transforming a moment of conflict into one of sweet delight.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Expecting more from your relationship life might be exactly how you need to think to make sure that get what you want this winter. Your lovely ruling planet Venus is in serious Capricorn where she rewards you for having ambitious plans but could leave you out in the cold of disappointment if you settle for less. This serious sign rewards you for aiming high and being persistent in pursuit of your personal goals. Putting in more effort will get you more joy from your current partnership or open to door to someone new.

Venus’ transit is in your 9th House of Travel, which helps you to find love when you’re out of town or connecting with people from different cultures. It can take more time than usual to warm up with the love planet in such a serious sign, yet slowing down and enjoying the process of seduction will make it even more satisfying. Being respected, and being with someone you respect doesn’t sound erotic, but could be keys to building and maintaining the passion you seek.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

You are very likely to have the magical support of sexy Mars to keep your romantic life active this winter. This passionate planet settled into your 5th House Self-Expression on December 7 and, lucky you, will stay there until next July. Getting attention comes more easily with this extra long transit, increasing your opportunities for making connections. In fact, you could be so desirable that your challenge will be about making choices among potential partners.

If you’re in a relationship, it’s a signal that you can recover the fun and feelings that attracted you two to one another in the first place. Normally aggressive Mars is in cool and gracious Libra, allowing you to take the initiative in personal matters without coming on too strong and to skillfully back out of commitments that no longer touch your heart. The last week of December could be a little edgy with power struggles a possibility, but applying your considerable social skills can calm even the tensest situations as you head into the New Year rich with promise for partnerships and pleasure.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Expect more activity in your personal life with the energizing Sun occupying your two primary houses of partnership from December 21 to February 18. Although this is meant to increase your confidence and creativity, you might be tempted to step back and let others take the lead. This is not recommended because your chances for getting the love and affection you want increase when you’re running the show.

The Sun in authoritative Capricorn until January 19 says that you need to be the boss unless you want to be bossed around. Taking charge in relationships isn’t about being a bully, but is about you being clear about your expectations and commitments. Sure, you can be sweet and accommodating, but only after you’ve established some rules. This is followed by a solar shift into cool Aquarius and your 8th House of Intimacy, which begins a month of emotional experimentation. Attraction to an unconventional person or seeking more space in your current partnership will surprise you by showing that the freer you feel the safer it will be to get closer to someone.

Leo (July. 23 – Aug. 22)

Work is likely to take precedence over romance until the Sun enters your 7th House of Partners on January 18. This solar shift into quirky Aquarius reduces your sense of social pressure, allowing you to feel at ease with unusual people and in unpredictable situations. Being more playful and relaxed in your current relationship or with someone new means that you don’t have to put on a show to be loved. By keeping connections friendly you’re free to enjoy the moment without worrying too much about the future.

But if you’re missing the passion and drama that often comes with romance, you are likely to find it starting on February 18 when the Sun enters super sensitive Pisces and your 8th House of Intimacy. It’s a great time to surrender to your most tender emotions and plunge into feelings that melt any barriers with others. While it’s true that you could get lost in romantic fantasies during the subsequent 30 days, the delight of merging your body, mind and soul with a caring and compassionate individual could almost seem like finding heaven on earth.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

Winter begins with the solar move into responsible Capricorn on December 21, which is also when the Sun starts its 30-day stay in your 5th House of Romance. It’s time to take charge of your personal life by initiating contacts and organizing activities. As long as you don’t come across as too bossy you’re planning and determination can restore excitement to an ongoing alliance or open the door to a new one.

On January 18 the Sun floats into brainy Aquarius and your 6th House of Work. Romantic feelings could be aroused by an intellectual person, even if his or her ideas are very different from your own. This transit occurs in your 6th House of Employment, which can attract you to someone at work. What starts out as a professional relationship with a colleague could turn into something much more personal. Strong differences of opinion and belief systems may not sound like a reason to get closer to a person, but clashing ideas could, strangely enough, lead to a deeper emotional connection. As long as you’re respectful of one another and share the same overall goal, the results could be delicious.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

You could be running hot and cold in your approach to relationships this season. Whether it’s your own emotional changes or outside circumstances that are shifting from passion to indifference, this is likely to be a period of extremes. Your amorous planet Venus turns retrograde in serious Capricorn on December 21, which can slow down progress in your personal life and, perhaps, revive interest in someone from your past.

The pace should pick up again when she returns to forward motion on January 31, but a major boost in pleasure and popularity starts when Venus enters friendly Aquarius and your 5th House of Romance on March 5. But even while you’re waiting for this sexy transition, energetic Mars is in your sign until July. Its presence in Libra and your 1st House of Personality could spark impatience or a sudden attraction, yet it also provides you with the motivation to take the initiative in relationships. The best part is that your ability to be pushy in polite ways lets you take the lead with the one you’re with or pursuing someone new without appearing overly aggressive.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

Winter starts with a bang as your traditional ruling planet Mars blasts into explosive aspects with volatile Uranus on December 25 and intense Pluto on December 30 that can rock your world. Breaking free from restrictive situations is a possible benefit, but holding onto resentment and failing to make your position clear will slow down your love life in the New Year. So the key to making this a season of romance comes from taking a step back from your emotions and looking at your situation with a little bit of logic.

Yes, you may have to make some compromises, but a good friend will provide the advice and support you need to handle intense issues in a calm and cool manner. Besides, you don’t need to attract a lot of attention to get what you want now. Quiet, behind-the-scenes connections could be especially delicious. On February 18 the conscious, creative and confident Sun starts a 30-day visit to your 5th House of Romance. Just add a big dose of imagination, a pinch of idealism and a dash of compassion to make some loving magic happen.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Work comes before pleasure early this winter. It starts with the Sun in responsible Capricorn and your 2nd House of Worth where you can build your self-confidence and increase your appeal to others. Commitment to developing your talents and taking care of your body will have a major impact on your desirability, so make them your priorities. The Sun’s shift into friendly Aquarius and your chatty 3rd House on January 18 lightens your mood and increases your chances to connect with people. This is an easygoing transit that encourages conversations and attracts interesting individuals. You may need some variety, though, to get your emotions flowing.

If you have a partner, look for some new interests to restore passion to your lives. If you’re single, exploring different groups and organizations could lead to meeting someone new. Your tender side starts showing as of February 18, a time when you may be less interested in going out with friends and more satisfied staying home with one caring person. If you trust someone, don’t be shy about showing your soft side since sharing this kind of sensitivity invites intimacy.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

The season starts out slowly as the love planet Venus stops dead in its tracks on December 21. This retrograde turn occurs in Capricorn, which can encourage you to step back from a relationship. You don’t have to end a partnership, if you have one, but it’s certainly a time to review and rethink your commitment to it. By January 31, when Venus goes forward again, you should be totally clear about what you want. If you’re single, this reversal period is useful for reconnecting with an old lover and getting sentimental about the past.

Making adjustments to your appearance and approach to romance are excellent ways to use this transit. The Capricorn New Moon on January 1 joins transformational Pluto, reminding you to let go of beliefs, behavior and people that aren’t helping you find happiness. Even if you’re feeling edgy around the Full Moon on January 15, be patient and trust yourself to make responsible romantic decisions. Sexy Venus-Mars squares on January 16 and March 2 can arouse your desires and might even turn a disagreement into an erotic connection.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

You might feel like you’re being left out of the fun when winter starts. The life-giving Sun and romantic Venus are both in serious Capricorn and your 12th House of Invisibility then. Getting attention isn’t easy, but you might enjoy more private time for yourself or to share with one undemanding individual. Being less direct about expressing your desires makes sense until the solar shift into Aquarius and your 1st House of Personality on January 18. That should increase your confidence and visibility, but there still may be unfinished relationship business that keeps you from getting exactly what you want.

Working to please yourself, though, is a good way to ensure happiness and make you more desirable to others. Then, on March 5, the love planet Venus glides into your friendly sign to give you more sparkle and appeal. People are likely to notice and appreciate you then with new forms of fun and stimulation arriving on the 18th. A favorable alignment between alluring Venus and your innovative planet Uranus makes this a time of unusual pleasures and unexpected joy.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

A key relationship theme for you this season is the ongoing need to keep negotiating with others. Sure, you’re more inclined to find agreement with people, to keep your mouth shut or just to walk away from the situation. However, putting in the effort to discuss and debate difficult issues is worth the effort. Passionate Mars is in Libra and your 8th House of Intimacy where it rewards you for diplomatically stating your case, listening to what others say and coming up with a compromise to keep your connection alive and healthy.

This can also be a seductive transit as you’re ability and instinct to charm almost everyone you encounter is strong. Of course, that could send out misleading signals, so be clear about your intentions and behavior to avoid attracting someone who doesn’t really appeal to you. The Sun’s entry into your sign on February 18 will provide you with more confidence and creativity, which will make you more visible to others. This can give you extra energy to put into your current relationship or provide the will to pursue a new one.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Friday, December 20

The energy level jumps up a notch and shifts us into a more festive mood today, as the Moon enters lively Leo at 1:47 a.m. EST. We may be ready to walk away from our obligations in order to enjoy ourselves. Unfortunately, avoiding responsibilities isn’t as simple as we wish, for there are consequences to our actions. However, the dramatic Leo Moon’s smooth trine to independent Uranus motivates us to express our needs without regard to the outcome.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your self-esteem is on the upswing today, yet your enthusiasm could create problems if you don’t take the time to listen to what others are saying. It’s tempting now to just ignore an important piece of information that can come back to haunt you later, costing you time and money. Someone may unintentionally give you incorrect data, or you might misunderstand what you’ve been told. Either way, it’s wise to check everything you hear twice. Sticking close to the facts is your smartest strategy, even if it’s not the most enjoyable path to take.

Taurus Horoscope

 

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Oddly enough, although the pace of your life may be speeding up, it feels as if your progress is slowing down. It’s difficult to keep up with all that you should be doing now, and you might exhaust yourself by trying to finish everything that you start. Even if you want others to appreciate your reliability, it’s still important to take your time and produce high-quality work. Focusing on excellence will impress your colleagues more than hurrying through your tasks just to get them done.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Your life seems quite complicated today, as the evocative Moon visits your 3rd House of Communication, turning up the volume on your conversations with others. But if your day becomes too noisy, a possible misinterpretation can add chaos and confusion. Nevertheless, don’t worry if you need to untangle a delicate issue; it’s worth clearing up a misunderstanding now before it causes any trouble later on. Carving out a bit of peace and quiet may be the first step toward finding clarity.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You may become quite stubborn if a coworker suggests you change your plans today. You might dig your heels in even further if you have already taken the time to carefully consider your options. You want to do what makes the most sense, but you don’t think you should revise your agenda just to make others happy. Compromising is a necessary part of negotiation, but there’s no need to sacrifice your values to reach a successful agreement.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Escaping your daily routine to have some fun might be tempting, but you have more important things to do because others are depending on you now. You have been itching to make something exciting happen, and it’s time to push ahead with your plans. Just don’t become impatient; positive change must be grounded by a strong foundation, so impulsive action is unwise. Build on what you already have today instead of betting your future success on the unknown.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You feel torn between presenting your ideas to others and withdrawing to keep your point of view to yourself. Your creative juices are flowing, but you’re not sure if it’s appropriate to express your crazy ideas. Fortunately, your imagination won’t steer you wrong today, so trust your instincts no matter what. Taking a chance by putting yourself out there for everyone to see isn’t as risky as you think.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Chilling out with your friends sounds like a great idea, but you could end up far from your goals if you don’t take things more seriously today. It’s tempting to assume that everything is on track and will turn out as you wish, but you need to deliver on your promises to keep the day from spinning out of control. Thankfully, if you take the time to put your recent commitments into proper perspective, you should be able to negotiate a course of action that won’t require as much hard work on your part.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You intuitively know what others want today, which may help you get a head start on the job. There’s no reason to wait patiently for your boss to assign you a new task if you already know what needs to be done. Starting on your chores earlier and being more methodical in your approach can turn a hectic day into a pleasant one, enabling you to accomplish more than you originally thought possible

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your feet are planted firmly on the ground today, yet the Moon’s visit to your 9th House of Adventure also inspires you with a touch of wanderlust. You have a pretty good idea of what you should be doing now, but your restlessness won’t go away on its own. You’re eager to embark on a big trip, but this might not be the most convenient time to travel. There’s no hurry; thankfully, solid preparation will pave the way to your success. The future may be even more exciting than you can imagine.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Although the emotional intensity seems to be mellowing out today, there’s still a lot happening in your personal life. Fortunately, you have a specific destination in mind, making it easier to follow the path toward your goals. Visualize your success, make a plan to reach it and then set out toward your target. Keep in mind that shortcuts won’t help you get there any faster now, so prepare to take the more traditional route that consists of hard work and sheer determination.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may strive to take a centrist position today because you really don’t want to stir up any extra trouble. You prefer sharing a point of view that’s easily defendable, but it seems as if everything you say now provokes conflict, even if you’re just trying to make your opinions known. Remember that your plan is merely one way to approach a dilemma; grace others with respect, even if their conclusions are different from yours. Thankfully, there’s more than one route to reach your goals.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Although you can competently analyze a project by breaking it down into manageable components, it’s not necessary to make such a big deal of what you are doing today. Fulfilling your commitments is important, but don’t waste energy explaining how you developed your strategy. Others don’t need to know your inner process now, as long as you focus on getting the job done in a timely manner.

Your Weekend Love Horoscopes for Dec. 20 – 22

Weekend Love Horoscopes

December 20-22: Party, Interrupted!

Maria DeSimone   Maria DeSimone on the topics of love, horoscopes, astrology

 

With the Moon in Leo all day Friday and Saturday, you might think you’re home-free for a magnificent weekend of romance and pleasure. Not so fast.

Unfortunately, love planet Venus will turn retrograde on Saturday, deflating everyone’s plans to party with a cavalier attitude. In fact, beginning Saturday and until January 31, 2014, matters of the heart will become more sober for everyone. Pay close attention to what needs fixing in your love life since, because until you revise this it may be difficult to enjoy even the happiest of lunar aspects.

The Moon will enter serious Virgo on Sunday, and at least by then you’ll be able to honestly look at the wrinkles in your love life. It’s time to get out the iron!

Full Moon in Gemini Horoscopes

Full Moon in Gemini Horoscopes

Shifting gears under this bright lunation

Jeff Jawer  Jeff Jawer on the topics of horoscopes, gemini, full moon, astrology

The jittery Gemini Full Moon early on December 17, 2013, is easily distracted by a million and one minor details, which contrasts with the philosophical perspective of the Sagittarius Sun. The challenge we face is learning how to shift gears from the petty to the profound and to recognize the difference between issues of the moment that will fade quickly and those that require a longer time for deeper analysis and consideration.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

There’s a tendency to speak carelessly with the chatty Gemini Full Moon in your 3rd House of Communication. You could overload others with information or inflate a single fact into a major philosophical statement. Don’t oversell your ideas, but focus on developing key points and make sure that you listen to feedback while trying to make a point. Your credibility depends on the information that you share.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

This diverse Gemini Full Moon lands in your 2nd House of Money. The positive side of its opposition to the Sagittarius Sun is that it can open up additional sources of income. The risk, though, is spreading yourself too thin. You may be so pre-occupied by an excess of activities that you lose sight of the big picture. Exploring ways to earn more is fine as long as you don’t lose your principles or perspective along the way.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

This Full Moon in your communicative sign is likely to make you even busier than usual now. It occurs in your 1st House of Personality, which tends to increase the range of your activities. But it’s also a signal to play with your appearance and your approach to people, exploring new ways to connect. Don’t give in to the judgments of others, though, especially those who are rigid in their beliefs and ways of doing business.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

It’s understandable if you want to turn off your phone, lock your door and pull down the shades with this Gemini Full Moon in your 12th House of Secrets. Of course, you’re more likely to be swamped with activities that require your attention, but finding private time and space is a must. When you can get the quiet you seek, your mind will start popping with ideas that might even seem like miraculous answers to critical questions.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)

This highly active Gemini Full Moon lands in your 11th House of Friends and Groups, which should keep you extra busy these days. You might consider limiting your social and professional commitments instead of wearing yourself out by being part of every event. Choosing the people and experiences that are the most important to you will improve the quality of your connections and maintain your energy level.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

This easily distracted Gemini Full Moon occurs in your 10th House of Career and Public Responsibility. The good news is that it can help you make professional contacts and take on interesting tasks. However, there is some danger of spreading yourself too thin or, for a conscientious person like you, stress you out with more obligations than you can comfortably meet. Learning to delay and delegate will lighten the load.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

You might have itchy feet with this restless Gemini Full Moon occurring in your 9th House of Faraway Places. The desire to travel and to expand your mind is growing, which could make it challenging to concentrate on one thing at a time. But the gift of this transit is to open your thinking with curiosity and, hopefully, connect you with people, cultures or subjects that will be new, exciting and mentally stimulating.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

This communicative Full Moon occurs in your 8th House of Deep Sharing where it can open your appreciation for different kinds of people and activities. Discussing intimate matters comes more easily as you become more objective and adaptable in close personal and business relationships. Dealing with delicate issues is likely to be more successful when you’re less locked into a limited point of view.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

The diverse Gemini Full Moon lands in your 7th House of Relationships where you may be challenged by the inconsistency of others. Its opposition to your opinionated Sun could be frustrating if you’re trying to sell an important idea. It’s essential to really listen to and respond to the feedback people give you as this will provide necessary information and keep doors open in personal and professional partnerships.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

Adaptability on the job and in dealing with other tasks is the key to utilizing this flexible Gemini Full Moon. It occurs in your 6th House of Work, which can wear you out with distractions and diverse duties that are difficult to manage. Yet it can also awaken your interest in developing new skills and methods that can enhance your career. While you don’t ever want to be sloppy, relaxing your rules is recommended now.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

It’s your time for fun with this playful Gemini Full Moon landing in your 5th House of Romance, Play and Children. Your heart should be lighter as you take yourself less seriously. There’s nothing wrong with being silly or youthful in friendly situations. Flirting and teasing come more easily and are very likely to get you more attention than usual.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

This verbal Gemini Full Moon happens in your4th House of Home and Family, which can increase activity at your house. The plus side could include breakthrough conversations or discoveries about the past that could lighten your load. But you can also be overwhelmed with so many people and events that you’ll need more alone time.

 

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, Dec. 16th

The distractions are endless today, making it difficult to hold our concentration on any one task as the inquisitive Gemini Moon increases our curiosity and draws our attention to something new. It may be quite challenging to follow through on everything we start now, since we can imagine many possible outcomes in every direction we look. But it’s nearly impossible to gauge how much to say as messenger Mercury aligns with over-the-top Jupiter.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may be feeling extremely enthusiastic today as effervescent Jupiter pumps up your optimism. Even if you are facing tough circumstances, you can still find something positive to focus on. But don’t paint such a worry-free picture that you overlook an important truth right before your eyes. Instead, map out a realistic strategy for the upcoming months ahead and concentrate on accomplishing your goals. Sheer determination and hard work could be all you need to make your dreams come true.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

New perspectives continue to expand your understanding of the big world outside your door. You are going on a journey within your mind, so take every opportunity you can to learn more about yourself as you travel. Explore your interests in religion, philosophy, or metaphysics, even if you are normally concerned with more mundane things. Put your current inspiration to work by doing your best to discover the secrets of the universe.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Your moods may be a bit uncontrollable today, prompting you to react without thinking. Usually, you’re the one who cleverly motivates others, but the tables are turned for the next few weeks as your associates push you into action. You won’t be able to get away without cooperating, so use this time to act in a forward-thinking manner instead of waiting until it’s too late. It’s okay to take a risk, but allowing others to lead may be more productive for now.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your big ideas might not solve any work-related issues, but they do help you think more globally. You could try to bury your feelings so you can kick yourself into action today, but you could move so fast that you overdo it. Don’t let your impulsive excitement lead you into any agreements that limit your range of action or you may feel stuck until the end of the year. Relying on your natural cautious instincts now works in your favor.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You receive an encouraging boost of energy today from witty Mercury as it stirs up colorful ideas in your 5th House of Creativity; however, it’s your decision on how best to use your current inspiration. You may be highly productive or choose to have a whole lot of fun instead. The good news is that you can get the best of both worlds, applying your playful spirit in a spontaneous way whether you are at work or at home. Whatever you do, don’t waste this magical moment.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your primary concern over the following weeks may involve finding the right mixture of enthusiasm and restraint as you vacillate between moving forward with your career aspirations and retreating into the safety of your nest. Your best strategy might be to avoid making a final decision for a while. Let the internal conflict inspire you to imagine new possibilities even while circumstances continue to slow you down.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may feel another surge of mental energy as you search for long-term solutions to current problems. But don’t squander a wonderful opportunity by staying within your head. Now that you are buzzing, do something about it and initiate a bold move. Don’t get hung up wondering if you are making the right decision or not; any movement now is better than waiting for the perfect moment. Strike while the iron is hot.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your financial security might seem so important to you now that you’re tempted to set aside matters of the heart so you can focus on managing your business. Of course you realize your silence will not last forever, so you’re probably just delaying the inevitable. Although your self-esteem may be shaky today, you could boost your confidence by pushing past your fears and guiding your actions from a place of love.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The party vibes kick up another notch as jovial Jupiter spreads his good cheer all over the place. You may feel charged up with an energetic buzz, allowing you to enjoy just about anything that attracts your attention. Unfortunately, your short-term enthusiasm can temporarily overwhelm your long-term strategic goals. Beware of saying yes too quickly, even if you are more than ready for whatever happens next. A little bit of caution improves your chances of success.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Preventing your feelings from bottling up within you is critical today because your intentions will probably slip out even if you don’t express what’s on your mind. Taking full responsibility for your needs is much more admirable than playing the role of a victim. Your ambitions may be honorable, but circumstances can quickly get muddled unless you are prepared to walk your emotional talk. Thankfully, your sense of integrity will see you through.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You might be very surprised with all the changes occurring in your life. Your social calendar continues to get even busier as friendly Mercury is activated in your 11th House of Friends. Enjoy the energetic shift outward as you think about filling up your calendar with exciting activities. Just remember that it’s okay to turn down an invitation if you don’t feel up to it, for there will be plenty more opportunities for fun throughout the holiday season.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Although you may be a fairly private person, you now have a chance to show the world how well you can play with others. Perhaps you feel more ambitious today, yet you’re not certain how best to apply your efforts. Don’t worry about finalizing a new plan, for your greatest strength today is your ability to make it up as you go along. Have faith in the process of collaboration and be ready to create positive change.

Fortunately, turning our dreams into reality is possible because optimistic Jupiter forms a harmonious trine with pragmatic Saturn, relieving the pressure that comes from frustration. It’s crucial to consider what we want to achieve now and set our intentions on reaching our goals.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You don’t have to take charge by acting in a dictatorial manner, even if you believe you know what needs to be done. Although you are a champion of choosing the fastest route to your destination, there are other ways to reach your goals today. Yours may be the best method for you, but it might not work as well for someone else. It’s better to give up control around the outer edges of your life now and let some things run their own course.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You should be able to accomplish your objectives today, but you might start out distracted by an inner conflict as you contemplate the best way to assert yourself in the current situation. You may struggle reining in your emotions this morning, but steadfast support from a close friend has a calming influence. Relationship dynamics improve as the day wears on, freeing you to find a sustainable pace at work. In the meantime, any movement is better than inaction even if you don’t see tangible results until later on.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

It’s probably not a trivial issue if you’re concerned about your current obligations to coworkers. However, your mental gyrations might actually push you to a critical point as you turn your thoughts into effective action. You know that you shouldn’t let a crucial opportunity slip away now without making your move. Go forward with determination; your efforts will pay off in ways you can’t yet imagine.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your resolve deepens today and may turn into an obsession unless you’re able to put your goals into a healthier perspective. Fortunately, you seem to have a natural ability to know when to let go because your intuition is right on target now. Don’t waste energy second guessing your decisions. Overcome your insecurities and trust your judgment. If you keep your eyes on the prize, you’ll be amazed by the progress you make over time.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You must wield your power carefully because your actions have greater consequences now than you realize. However, it’s crucial to lead by example and not by intimidation. Use of force isn’t effective and only encourages others to resist getting in line with your goals. You have a deep pool of physical and mental energy today, so make these days as productive and positive as you can.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Although you may be unsure of your goals now, you can lean on your close friends and associates for a reality check. However, once you let others help you reach a decision about your course of action, you must rely solely on your own practical and efficient manner to achieve the results you want. The good news is your high level of integrity has come through for you in the past and it will do so again today.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your long-term career goals are on your mind today but you might not choose to share your plans with anyone else yet. You can achieve the greatest satisfaction by considering various scenarios and imagining your future success. Luckily, these thoughts are not just idle fantasies now because you also have the ability to work hard and improve your life. Don’t expect immediate results; some things are worth waiting for more than others.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your tendency toward concentrating on a single task might make you seem a bit ruthless now, but it’s a small price to pay for achieving your goals. Others may feel as if they are in your way unless they agree to do everything you suggest. But you don’t have to be so quick to push your agenda. Even if it doesn’t seem apparent at first, there’s always room for compromise. Success is within reach if you can establish a productive routine to follow during the next several weeks.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You have a high level of concentration today, especially if you establish clear objectives because karmic Saturn is harmonizing with your key planet Jupiter. Instead of inflating your confidence to cover your uncertainty, you’re able to keep your optimism on a long slow burn, sustaining a steady level of production. Remember, practicing patience can buy you the time you presently need, but there’s no substitute for solid preparation and hard work. Don’t jump yet; leap only when you feel ready.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are very conscious of interpersonal boundaries now and could go out of your way to clarify the dynamics in your relationships. Thankfully, others can bring you a sense of well-being as your key planet Saturn harmonizes with generous Jupiter in your 7th House of Companions. You may feel disarmed by someone’s encouragement, prompting you to let down your guard. However, you’re acutely aware of your goals and how to achieve them, so there’s no danger in being subsumed by someone else’s agenda. Open your heart and let the force be with you.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You aren’t in a mood to be messed with today, especially if your work has piled up and you feel pressure to meet your obligations. You won’t let anything prevent you from accomplishing your goals. Thankfully, your coworkers may turn out to be a source of much-needed support. It’s a blessing to have good people around you who can jump in and offer useful assistance at exactly the right moment. There’s no need to shoulder the burden alone; gratefully accept the help in the manner it is intended.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Expressing yourself creatively might be more important to you than to anyone else in your environment. Other people may question your motives or even ask you to do additional tasks for them. Luckily, you’re not easily sidetracked now, even if you don’t have much to show for your efforts at first. But don’t slip into the tempting waters of irrational self-doubt. No one can pull the rug out from underneath you if you remember that your instincts are trustworthy and rarely steer you wrong

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, December 9th

The boundaries which separate us seem less real today. Although mystics throughout the ages have taught that our personal distinctions are illusory, the spiritual Pisces Moon reminds us of what happens when we confuse reality with fantasy. We must pay attention to our limits as the surreal Pisces Moon squares the indulgent Sagittarius Sun, encouraging us to reach for the stars. It’s easier to find our way home if we haven’t traveled too far.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may be more concerned about everyone else today than you are about yourself. Obviously, wanting to help those you love is wonderful, but trying to fix everything is not healthy. Learning to respect other people’s boundaries is a huge lesson for you now because you might unconsciously ride roughshod over someone’s feelings, without even realizing it. Remember, you can be of assistance by actively listening and kindly sharing your emotions; just don’t try to run the show.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Thinking about cosmic questions that don’t have easy answers might occupy a lot of your spare time today. Searching for the meaning of life isn’t on your everyday agenda, but now it can deepen your spiritual connection. Even if you are oftentimes satisfied with simple explanations, take this opportunity to explore a more complex set of issues that go beyond finding emotional security and personal pleasure. Look within to find the solutions you seek.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

An unusual turn of events might shake up your schedule, but there’s no reason not to go along for the ride. Fortunately, you are able to make good use of your toolkit of clever ideas and smooth moves, which can ease the complexity. Remember, if anything goes awry now, it’s most likely a sign of a deeper problem. Do whatever you must to extinguish any brush fires that smolder while continuing to work on cleaning up the underlying issues. The more effort you put in, the more you will receive in return.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Knowing exactly what’s appropriate today is tricky, since your emotional boundaries may still be a bit fuzzy. You could even waste time and energy lost in feelings that actually belong to someone else. Visualizing a barrier of impenetrable white light around you can be enough to reestablish a strong perimeter that keeps out the negativity and allows you to reconnect with your center.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may be quite hopeful now about the possibilities of a new romance, yet caution is advised so you don’t overlook an important piece of the puzzle. Although no one is purposefully trying to mislead you, everything is not exactly as it seems. It’s your willingness to give others the benefit of the doubt that can create problems. A healthy dose of realism today saves you from disappointment tomorrow.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

A challenging relationship issue may give you a headache today, but if you face the situation with a realistic attitude, you’ll be thankful in the long run. You could learn something crucial that helps you to see things more clearly in the days ahead. However, burying your head in the sand is not a viable strategy. Dealing with the truth that is right in front of you creates a foundation strong enough to endure the current circumstances without having to retreat. Handle the situation the best you can and don’t look back.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Maintaining a steady work pace while taking care of business is difficult today, but pushing yourself harder won’t necessarily be an efficient strategy. Try cutting yourself some slack and let your energy ebb and flow throughout the day without attempting to control it. In between short bursts of concentrated effort, make time to revel in your creative side, even if you aren’t productive for a while. Think of yourself as a metaphysical surfer; ride the waves while the surf’s up and regroup when it’s calm.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Making enough time to commune with nature or with your inner guides can turn today into a sweet memory. Even if you have responsibilities to fulfill, don’t cheat yourself out of the magic you might find by creating a bit of solitude. Thankfully, your imagination reveals unconventional solutions to mundane problems if you successfully quiet your thoughts. Giving yourself permission to be spontaneous now empowers you to move through a current roadblock. Listening to your intuition is a good place to start.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your sound judgment pours from you so smoothly today, you may not realize how much you help someone else. You have a great deal of philosophical and spiritual wisdom to share, and this is your chance to return the generosity that others have shown you in the past. There’s no need to seek recognition or approval now; giving back to those who require assistance is its own sweet reward.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Making intelligent decisions could be tricky business today because your mind isn’t on your regular mundane concerns. You may be drifting around in your own private fantasy, instead of carefully calculating how to reach your next set of goals. Don’t try to suppress your dreams even if they seem unreachable; there are treasures waiting for your discovery within the realms of your imagination. Open the door and let them in.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may have to deal with complicated money issues today, yet you can avert a messy problem if you face them head on as soon as they surface. Although the current situation might not seem like a significant concern in the big picture, it’s still a smart idea to consider what you could learn from exploring all your options before making an important decision. However, if your intuition tells you one thing and logic points elsewhere, go with the facts for now.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You are happily splashing around in your own watery element today and are able to dive deeper into your dreams if you so choose. This can be a most luxurious time if you are in a positive state of mind. But if you are even mildly depressed, you could find yourself drowning in your own tears. Don’t be afraid to talk about your fears with a trusted friend. The first step to getting help is asking for it. Remember, Fish are most content when they are swimming in a school of like-minded souls.

Are You Ready, Here They Are – Winter Love Horoscopes for 2013

Winter Love Horoscopes 2013

Keep your love life burning strong while the temperature drops…

Maria DeSimone  Maria DeSimone on the topics of love, horoscopes, winter, astrology

 

We love to get warm with a sweetie in winter and this one’s is almost perfect for patient people. New relationships can take some time to heat up with amorous Venus turning retrograde on December 21. This alluring planet’s reversal period lasts until January 31, making this an excellent period to make repairs in your current relationship. Getting clearer about what you want with Venus in responsible Capricorn might not sound sexy, but could provide the magic to revive passion with your partner or put you on track to connecting with someone new.

Taking that first step toward addressing a problem or breaking the ice may be done cautiously with supposedly aggressive Mars on his best behavior in super polite Libra. Signals could be misread when we’re so concerned about rubbing someone the wrong way, which is why clarity is a must. Strong desires expressed graciously are bound to overcome obstacles and soften the hardest hearts.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)

The good news this season is that your passionate planet Mars is in your 7th House of Partners all winter, increasing your chances for making romantic connections. The bad news is that it’s in restrained Libra, which can slow down your pursuit of pleasure. Dealing with indecisive people or having to tiptoe around someone’s sensitivity could put a damper on spontaneity. But in exchange for having less dramatic encounters you should be more strategic in going after who and what you want. Just be charming and considerate of others and you’ll be amazed at how a seemingly cool relationship can turn into a very hot one. December ends on a passionate note with intense Mars aspects from December 25 until the New Year. Yet even if you miss opportunities to play then, Mars forms sexy squares with his alluring partner Venus on January 16 and March 2 that should spice up your personal life when the mood could change from feisty to flirty in an instant, transforming a moment of conflict into one of sweet delight.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)

Expecting more from your relationship life might be exactly how you need to think to make sure that get what you want this winter. Your lovely ruling planet Venus is in serious Capricorn where she rewards you for having ambitious plans but could leave you out in the cold of disappointment if you settle for less. This serious sign rewards you for aiming high and being persistent in pursuit of your personal goals. Putting in more effort will get you more joy from your current partnership or open to door to someone new. Venus’ transit is in your 9th House of Travel, which helps you to find love when you’re out of town or connecting with people from different cultures. It can take more time than usual to warm up with the love planet in such a serious sign, yet slowing down and enjoying the process of seduction will make it even more satisfying. Being respected, and being with someone you respect doesn’t sound erotic, but could be keys to building and maintaining the passion you seek.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)

You are very likely to have the magical support of sexy Mars to keep your romantic life active this winter. This passionate planet settled into your 5th House Self-Expression on December 7 and, lucky you, will stay there until next July. Getting attention comes more easily with this extra long transit, increasing your opportunities for making connections. In fact, you could be so desirable that your challenge will be about making choices among potential partners. If you’re in a relationship, it’s a signal that you can recover the fun and feelings that attracted you two to one another in the first place. Normally aggressive Mars is in cool and gracious Libra, allowing you to take the initiative in personal matters without coming on too strong and to skillfully back out of commitments that no longer touch your heart. The last week of December could be a little edgy with power struggles a possibility, but applying your considerable social skills can calm even the tensest situations as you head into the New Year rich with promise for partnerships and pleasure.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)

Expect more activity in your personal life with the energizing Sun occupying your two primary houses of partnership from December 21 to February 18. Although this is meant to increase your confidence and creativity, you might be tempted to step back and let others take the lead. This is not recommended because your chances for getting the love and affection you want increase when you’re running the show. The Sun in authoritative Capricorn until January 19 says that you need to be the boss unless you want to be bossed around. Taking charge in relationships isn’t about being a bully, but is about you being clear about your expectations and commitments. Sure, you can be sweet and accommodating, but only after you’ve established some rules. This is followed by a solar shift into cool Aquarius and your 8th House of Intimacy, which begins a month of emotional experimentation. Attraction to an unconventional person or seeking more space in your current partnership will surprise you by showing that the freer you feel the safer it will be to get closer to someone.

Leo (July. 23 – Aug. 22)

Work is likely to take precedence over romance until the Sun enters your 7th House of Partners on January 18. This solar shift into quirky Aquarius reduces your sense of social pressure, allowing you to feel at ease with unusual people and in unpredictable situations. Being more playful and relaxed in your current relationship or with someone new means that you don’t have to put on a show to be loved. By keeping connections friendly you’re free to enjoy the moment without worrying too much about the future. But if you’re missing the passion and drama that often comes with romance, you are likely to find it starting on February 18 when the Sun enters super sensitive Pisces and your 8th House of Intimacy. It’s a great time to surrender to your most tender emotions and plunge into feelings that melt any barriers with others. While it’s true that you could get lost in romantic fantasies during the subsequent 30 days, the delight of merging your body, mind and soul with a caring and compassionate individual could almost seem like finding heaven on earth.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)

Winter begins with the solar move into responsible Capricorn on December 21, which is also when the Sun starts its 30-day stay in your 5th House of Romance. It’s time to take charge of your personal life by initiating contacts and organizing activities. As long as you don’t come across as too bossy you’re planning and determination can restore excitement to an ongoing alliance or open the door to a new one. Your self-confidence is particularly appealing, but the next significant step toward relationship fulfillment requires a much softer and subtle approach. This begins with the Sun’s shift into tender Pisces and your 7th House of Partners on January 18. Setting aside rigid rules and breaking down barriers of control and authority are needed to deepen a personal connection. Being compassionate to others is a plus as long as you don’t wind up with someone who won’t take responsibility for her or himself. Pity is not the same as love, no matter how much it softens your heart. But sharing dreams and showing vulnerability with a sensitive individual can bring you closer together than ever.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)

You could be running hot and cold in your approach to relationships this season. Whether it’s your own emotional changes or outside circumstances that are shifting from passion to indifference, this is likely to be a period of extremes. Your amorous planet Venus turns retrograde in serious Capricorn on December 21, which can slow down progress in your personal life and, perhaps, revive interest in someone from your past. The pace should pick up again when she returns to forward motion on January 31, but a major boost in pleasure and popularity starts when Venus enters friendly Aquarius and your 5th House of Romance on March 5. But even while you’re waiting for this sexy transition, energetic Mars is in your sign until July. Its presence in Libra and your 1st House of Personality could spark impatience or a sudden attraction, yet it also provides you with the motivation to take the initiative in relationships. The best part is that your ability to be pushy in polite ways lets you take the lead with the one you’re with or pursuing someone new without appearing overly aggressive.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)

Winter starts with a bang as your traditional ruling planet Mars blasts into explosive aspects with volatile Uranus on December 25 and intense Pluto on December 30 that can rock your world. Breaking free from restrictive situations is a possible benefit, but holding onto resentment and failing to make your position clear will slow down your love life in the New Year. So the key to making this a season of romance comes from taking a step back from your emotions and looking at your situation with a little bit of logic. Yes, you may have to make some compromises, but a good friend will provide the advice and support you need to handle intense issues in a calm and cool manner. Besides, you don’t need to attract a lot of attention to get what you want now. Quiet, behind-the-scenes connections could be especially delicious. On February 18 the conscious, creative and confident Sun starts a 30-day visit to your 5th House of Romance. Just add a big dose of imagination, a pinch of idealism and a dash of compassion to make some loving magic happen.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)

Work comes before pleasure early this winter. It starts with the Sun in responsible Capricorn and your 2nd House of Worth where you can build your self-confidence and increase your appeal to others. Commitment to developing your talents and taking care of your body will have a major impact on your desirability, so make them your priorities. The Sun’s shift into friendly Aquarius and your chatty 3rd House on January 18 lightens your mood and increases your chances to connect with people. This is an easygoing transit that encourages conversations and attracts interesting individuals. You may need some variety, though, to get your emotions flowing. If you have a partner, look for some new interests to restore passion to your lives. If you’re single, exploring different groups and organizations could lead to meeting someone new. Your tender side starts showing as of February 18, a time when you may be less interested in going out with friends and more satisfied staying home with one caring person. If you trust someone, don’t be shy about showing your soft side since sharing this kind of sensitivity invites intimacy.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)

The season starts out slowly as the love planet Venus stops dead in its tracks on December 21. This retrograde turn occurs in Capricorn, which can encourage you to step back from a relationship. You don’t have to end a partnership, if you have one, but it’s certainly a time to review and rethink your commitment to it. By January 31, when Venus goes forward again, you should be totally clear about what you want. If you’re single, this reversal period is useful for reconnecting with an old lover and getting sentimental about the past. Making adjustments to your appearance and approach to romance are excellent ways to use this transit. The Capricorn New Moon on January 1 joins transformational Pluto, reminding you to let go of beliefs, behavior and people that aren’t helping you find happiness. Even if you’re feeling edgy around the Full Moon on January 15, be patient and trust yourself to make responsible romantic decisions. Sexy Venus-Mars squares on January 16 and March 2 can arouse your desires and might even turn a disagreement into an erotic connection.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)

You might feel like you’re being left out of the fun when winter starts. The life-giving Sun and romantic Venus are both in serious Capricorn and your 12th House of Invisibility then. Getting attention isn’t easy, but you might enjoy more private time for yourself or to share with one undemanding individual. Being less direct about expressing your desires makes sense until the solar shift into Aquarius and your 1st House of Personality on January 18. That should increase your confidence and visibility, but there still may be unfinished relationship business that keeps you from getting exactly what you want. Working to please yourself, though, is a good way to ensure happiness and make you more desirable to others. Then, on March 5, the love planet Venus glides into your friendly sign to give you more sparkle and appeal. People are likely to notice and appreciate you then with new forms of fun and stimulation arriving on the 18th. A favorable alignment between alluring Venus and your innovative planet Uranus makes this a time of unusual pleasures and unexpected joy.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)

A key relationship theme for you this season is the ongoing need to keep negotiating with others. Sure, you’re more inclined to find agreement with people, to keep your mouth shut or just to walk away from the situation. However, putting in the effort to discuss and debate difficult issues is worth the effort. Passionate Mars is in Libra and your 8th House of Intimacy where it rewards you for diplomatically stating your case, listening to what others say and coming up with a compromise to keep your connection alive and healthy. This can also be a seductive transit as you’re ability and instinct to charm almost everyone you encounter is strong. Of course, that could send out misleading signals, so be clear about your intentions and behavior to avoid attracting someone who doesn’t really appeal to you. The Sun’s entry into your sign on February 18 will provide you with more confidence and creativity, which will make you more visible to others. This can give you extra energy to put into your current relationship or provide the will to pursue a new one.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, December 5th

We are more attracted to ideas and philosophies than to the practical applications of language now. This is mental Mercury’s first full day in adventurous Sagittarius on a visit that lasts until December 24, activating our tendency to think expansively. Our inclination toward learning increases, but we must be careful that we don’t become too self-righteous in our beliefs. Meanwhile, the controlling Capricorn Moon helps us focus on what’s real.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Even if your feet are planted firmly on the ground today, your mind is beginning to drift out toward the distant edges of the universe. You have relentlessly paid attention to your thoughts in order to get to the source of your current feelings. Now it’s time to simplify your thinking and free yourself from previous emotional burdens. Fortunately, making the shift might actually be easier than it sounds once you truly let go.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Your obstinate behavior could overpower your good intentions now that the evocative Moon is in traditional Capricorn. Practicing mental flexibility is a smart strategy today, but it may be easier said than done. Nevertheless, keep reminding yourself that a stagnant mind can dam up the waters of creativity. Thankfully, an open mind allows your fertile imagination to flow with lush motivational ideas.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You are taking a more philosophical approach to relationships now that your key planet Mercury is visiting your 7th House of Partners. But you won’t likely be satisfied with emotionally detached discussions unless they have a direct impact on your life. You want to see real progress, so move your conversations out of the theoretical realm and into the present moment. Choosing your words carefully improves the chances of deepening a connection between you and someone special.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Colleagues at work may be a source of tension now as they pressure you to modify your plans and take a different course of action than you initially intended. You probably can rationalize your strategy to yourself, but it’s more challenging to convince others that they should cooperate with you. It might be better to bite the bullet and do what is expected today, even if only to buy some temporary peace and quiet. Return to your original ideas later when there’s less resistance all around.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You’re on the edge of something amazing and you can feel it right to the bottom of your feet — even if you don’t yet know what it is. You may be a bit frightened at the magnitude of the changes ahead, but holding on to your past never seems to make you happy for long. Keep wiggling your toes in anticipation of what’s next because your agility will suddenly become very handy when it’s time to make your move. But don’t rush the start; you will know when to act if you trust your instincts.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You’re turning into quite the philosopher these days, which may be somewhat out of character for you. Normally, you like to focus on the most practical applications of your analytical thinking, but now you don’t have to be so concerned with the mechanics of the real world. This strategy isn’t an excuse for sloppy thinking. Stay sharp and let your thoughts roam free without taking any action yet.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your emotions are intensifying and it’s crucial to stick with the inner process, even if it makes you feel vulnerable with those closest to you. Sometimes you take the easy way out of an emotional dilemma, for you often see both sides of an issue. However, your basic values could be at stake now, so don’t be afraid to speak with integrity. You can learn something special about yourself if you stand up for what’s important.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Even if you experienced an emotional crisis with a friend or lover recently, it’s time to move past the drama today and consider what’s next. You still might be attached to your unresolved feelings, but these just may have to heal on their own. There’s really no reason to involve others in this process. Instead, visualize a path toward a happier and healthier future. What you create in your imagination now can become reality later on.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may be experiencing a refreshing wave of joyful energy. Your mind carries you to great heights now as you explore new areas of interest when cerebral Mercury is visiting your sign until December 24. Although it could feel like a breath of fresh air, be careful that your enthusiasm doesn’t distract you from the real work in front of you. Adventures can be fun, but don’t use them to escape your commitments.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your heart is softening, yet it’s still challenging to risk telling others how you feel today. Paradoxically, your caution can actually make life more difficult because someone may notice that you’re keeping something secret. Even with the best of intentions, hidden agendas have more impact than you realize. If you have something to say, get it out into the open where it won’t do as much harm. Speak your mind and then focus on reclaiming the joy of the present moment.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your social life is on the upswing now because you are more drawn to the energy of group dynamics with interactive Mercury visiting your 11th House of Friends. Be bold and pencil in activities for the rest of the month even if you don’t have any concrete plans yet. There’s no need to wait until the holidays are here to put things on your calendar. But don’t just talk about it; get busy and start making the magic happen.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

A shift in your workplace is underway and you may have to collaborate with your coworkers more than ever before. You might even have to step up to the plate to assume a managerial role. In any case, the hierarchy of your office or community is becoming more apparent. Find your place within the social structures and play out your part the best you can. Keep in mind that a positive attitude will take you even further on your path to success.

Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, December 4th

We feel the need to get serious today as the Moon enters ambitious Capricorn at 1:49 am EST. Responsibility weighs heavy upon our shoulders and we have no choice but to do what’s required at this time. Although pleasure takes a back seat until we’ve taken care of current obligations, we can learn some profound lessons if we’re willing to dive deep. However, trickster Mercury flies into extroverted Sagittarius later tonight to relieve the stress.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You’re willing to work harder now because you think that your current ambitions have a better chance of being realized. But it’s not just because you are eager to put in the extra effort to accomplish more. It’s as if you’re tapping into something mysterious that adds power to everything you do. Keep in mind that fulfillment of your dreams may take longer than you wish, but believing in yourself today is certainly the first step to success.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You have an extra amount of patience that you can call on today, but it’s not because you are so saintly. Actually, you know what you want now and are ready to do whatever is necessary to reach your goals. If it is advantageous for you to push extra hard, you will. But if playing the waiting game is what’s required to bring satisfaction in the long run, then that’s exactly what you’ll do. Just be sure that your dreams are worth your time and effort.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You take your own plans very seriously today and you expect everyone else to do the same. However, you may not be so quick with your snappy comebacks now because you realize that you have a chance to experience something you might normally miss. Instead of relying on your clever repartee, sink into a meaningful emotional dialogue as you would a luxurious fantasy. But remember to play for keeps because this opportunity for connection is real.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Although you might think about ways to minimize your heavy workload today, someone else may successfully convince you to reconsider your plans. Taking time to reevaluate your current motives is a good idea, but don’t get duped into doubting your ability to make the right decision. Remember, people are counting on you. Nevertheless, listening to your instincts now is smarter than solely relying on others for guidance.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may feel a little awkward as your lighthearted spirit and playful attitude begin to fade. You aren’t necessarily looking for additional responsibilities today, yet others might be putting too many expectations on you, anyhow. However, there’s no need to waste energy worrying now since you still have some very pleasant times ahead, even if you have to tackle some less enjoyable tasks first. Take your mind off your current situation by concentrating on the rewards that are just around the next corner.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

If you are overly anxious because something seems out of whack, rest assured that a shift toward stability is now in the works. But don’t expect all your problems to just disappear since your newly discovered center of gravity brings its own intensity. Nevertheless, you should be able to enjoy yourself today, no matter what stressful situations you might face. Instead of seeking your answers in the outer world, find a peaceful place within where you can reconnect with your higher self.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You might try a stoic approach to a complex situation that involves a family member or very close friend. Even if you believe that the most intelligent strategy is to keep your emotions in check now, it may prove impossible to prevent them from showing. Ironically, it could be that expressing your feelings without editing them is exactly the catalyst that’s needed to resolve the current emotional drama. Don’t hold back; respond directly from your heart.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are in a better position now with respect to harvesting the fruits of your labors. But your current success isn’t only about your career; it has just as much to do with the overall satisfaction you feel about your personal life, even if it is still far from your vision of perfection. Instead of wasting energy focusing on what is lacking, express your gratitude for every single thing that brings you happiness in the present moment.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Obviously you want the good times to roll on forever, but, of course, they cannot. Thankfully, this doesn’t mean that you’re headed for troubled waters; it’s just that your over-exuberant energy needs to mellow out for a while. When you consider your recent experiences, you can’t help but realize how many wonderful blessings are present in your life, even if there are no fireworks currently lighting up the sky. Fortunately, you don’t have to wait for something major to happen; share your love with those in your life who deserve it right now.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

An emotional interaction can wake you up today and remind you of something that you have been trying to avoid. Luckily, you don’t have to fix everything that needs changing all at once. It’s better to be a silent observer now than to push your agenda forward in a way that might not bring you any closer to happiness, anyway. Simply being more aware is sufficient to start. Letting your feelings play through as naturally as possible allows the transformation to happen on its own.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You might decide to go into hiding now as the reflective Moon visits your reclusive 12th House, although your need for seclusion won’t likely last long. Nevertheless, treat this urge for solitude with respect, especially if you have been a social butterfly recently. But don’t confuse your current desire for privacy with moodiness. Although creating healthy boundaries is a great way to replenish your spirit, there’s no reason to feel alone in the universe.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You aren’t overly concerned with what you’re supposed to do in the real world today because your dreams have grown too special to set aside. It’s crucial to understand that your happiness is not dependent on acquiring more material wealth. Instead of focusing on your professional ambitions now, surround yourself with friends who encourage your spiritual growth and are willing to stand by you no matter what. Spread your wings and fly.

Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, December 3rd

Positive thinking increases our chances for success now that the high-spirited Sagittarius Moon reminds us that we can be the masters of our own destinies. We may overextend our reach because our self-confidence spurs us on to greater possibilities. Thankfully, a cooperative alignment between talkative Mercury and assertive Mars motivates us to speak clearly about our intentions. We’re inspired to take a risk in the pursuit of happiness.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

The seas are calm today, you have a gentle wind in your sails and the world is your oyster. Even if you require assistance, others will come to your rescue with exactly the skills and resources you need. If someone offers help, don’t exhibit false pride; acknowledge your predicament and say yes. Ultimately, being thankful for whatever generosity you receive now allows everyone to feel good about participating in your success.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

If you were a dancer, you would tell exquisite stories with your movements today, but you currently prefer to rely on words to get your message across. However, rather than being passionate about sharing your ideas, you secretly wish you could be chilling out. Unfortunately, pleasure may seem far away and you probably won’t be able to avoid meeting your obligations. Thankfully, the sooner you start your chores, the quicker you will finish.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You may wonder if a certain partnership is worth the trouble today, but unresolved issues seem to come together just in the nick of time. It’s easier to discuss your concerns openly now since people won’t likely take your accurate perceptions in a negative manner. Pick a subject and get the conversation rolling. Stick to the chosen topic because you cannot afford to waste energy being scattered by other people’s ideas. Tell the truth; even if your honesty temporarily raises the stress level, everything will settle back down soon enough.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Your positive attitude has a motivating effect on your coworkers today, but your optimism could be slightly misleading. Although you might have concerns about the quality of the job you’re doing, you may still appear so sure of yourself that others don’t offer their assistance because they believe you’re on track. Be specific and clearly ask for help if required. Fortunately, the support you want will be forthcoming, but not unless you’re completely honest about what you need.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You have big ideas about relationships now, and you believe that your good intentions can overcome any obstacles. The evocative Moon’s presence in your 5th House of Creativity emphasizes your innate need for spontaneity and drama, even if it means that your actual productivity suffers today. However, obtaining tangible results may not be as important to you as sharing what’s in your heart with those you love.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You’re pulled in two different directions today as the exuberant Sagittarius Moon encourages you to think big, while your natural instincts tell you to maintain a methodical approach when making plans. This internal conflict might make you hesitant to get too caught up in the excitement of the day, even if you want to jump in and join the fun. Keep in mind you can actually accomplish more than you realize by consciously limiting your overall expenditure of time and money. Moderation is key.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

It appears that you have a busy day ahead of you, so you might not be able to truly relax until the evening when you are finally caught up with everything. People seem to infringe upon your personal space now, even if they mean well. Oddly enough, you don’t mind all the distractions today; they could even inspire you to explore new avenues of self-expression as you interact with others. Enjoy the social noise while it lasts, since tomorrow will likely be much quieter.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may have ambitious plans to revamp your finances and if your goals survive today’s reality check, then you can be assured they are in the ballpark of plausibility. But if current events shake your security or stress your cash flow, set aside your big ideas and refocus your attention on the present moment. Ultimately, here and now is more important than then and there.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Nothing — not even the facts — is likely to prevent you from seeing amazing possibilities in every situation today. Your opinions might be so strong now that you disbelieve what’s in front of your eyes in order to preserve the big picture. Although you can easily soar through the day, being motivated by unrealistic visions isn’t necessarily healthy. Adjust your plans willingly, based upon what you learn, instead of waiting until it’s too late.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your vivid imagination spurs you on today with full-spectrum bursts of inspiration, but you can quickly see where you are overextended. Paring back your dance card is a smart strategy, since it’s better now to have one or two excellent partners rather than many mediocre ones. Your discernment is a powerful secret weapon, so use it carefully. Seek quality over quantity for the best outcome.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Staying on target is tricky now, because your mind naturally drifts off into the distant future. Although you feel highly creative today, following a single project through to completion is tougher than starting a new one. Don’t let others tempt you off course. Even if their activities sound like a lot of fun, abstaining from them allows you to take care of your business in a timely manner. Work now, play later.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Displaying a more compassionate side at work may be scary today, yet it’s healthier to face your fears so you can overcome them. Others see you as the source of a much-needed solution, but you might be hesitant to share what you know. There’s no need to talk until you feel it’s totally safe to express your opinions, especially if they are still in the process of development. Your intuition will tell you when the time is right.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, December 2nd

We might throw caution to the wind today as the cosmic energy blows in a fresh point of view. The Moon’s shift into farsighted Sagittarius at 1:31 am EST clears the clouds of illusion from our minds, enabling us to see the distant horizon. The New Moon at 7:22 pm makes us more aware of all the opportunities waiting just around the next corner. We may attempt to act cautiously, but we’re feeling confident and more hopeful about the future now.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You can go so far today fueled only on your boundless optimism that you could stir up some unexpected resistance, especially if you’re behaving outrageously. Although you may overlook a critical fact with the cavalier Sagittarius New Moon activating your 9th House of Big Ideas, your current intentions are strong enough to overcome challenging odds. Acting on a strong conviction is healthy, but it’s not necessary to spend energy defending your position with hollow words. Let your work speak for itself.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Including another person in your plans could be quite advantageous now that the fun-loving Sagittarius New Moon lands in your 8th House of Deep Sharing. However, you must be open to what your partner wants, too. A positive attitude is always an asset, but it won’t be enough today unless you pay close attention to the facts. Don’t minimize what you’re told because slipping into a dreamy space of denial won’t help you reach your goals. Keeping your feet firmly on the ground is just as important as knowing your destination.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

A personal relationship may be infused with exciting energy today because the fiery Sagittarius New Moon falls in your 7th House of Others. Or, perhaps, someone might enter your life now and inspire you with possibilities of creating something very special. Either way, it is your responsibility to transform your dreams into reality by releasing previous expectations and allowing the power of the moment to work its magic.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You want to accomplish a lot of work today, but you could underestimate the amount of effort required to meet your obligations. You’re up for the challenge because the optimistic Sagittarius New Moon occurs in your 6th House of Employment, but you also might discover that you’re in over your head. If you suddenly realize that you overcommitted your resources, taking out your bad judgment on others isn’t a useful strategy. Instead, be up front about your predicament and ask for assistance. You may be surprised at how quickly your real friends rush to your rescue.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may feel like letting loose and kicking up your heels today with the playful Sagittarius New Moon charging up your 5th House of Fun and Games. You might be so eager to enjoy yourself that you temporarily forget about your previous commitments. But don’t be overly concerned now; you will finish everything even if you have to work harder later. Give yourself permission to truly enjoy the present moment while expressing your gratitude as often as possible.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your philosophical perspective and realistic attitude can have a very positive influence on those around you. But you would prefer to focus on the good news today rather than the bad. Even if your actions portray the purest of intentions, your self-criticism might be harsh and you may fall short of your own expectations. Today’s Sagittarius New Moon energizes your 4th House of Emotional Security, so don’t be too rough on yourself. Simply do your best while leaving enough time to enjoy the company of those you love.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You’re quite appreciative of your closest friends and family now because their presence adds so much joy to your life. Thankfully, the Sagittarius New Moon lands in your 3rd House of Immediate Environment, so anyone can inspire you just by initiating an interesting discussion. Although you might prefer to narrow your focus, everyone around you will be happier if you are flexible and allow the day to carry you along on a wonderful ride without worrying about your destination.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You find it challenging now to separate your philosophical views about personal wealth from any judgments that you might have of yourself. You may appear certain of your current financial choices, but it’s still wise to exercise a little caution with the zealous Sagittarius New Moon falling in your 2nd House of Money. All the details haven’t surfaced yet, so don’t draw any premature conclusions. In the meantime, don’t underestimate the value of the connections you have with those who care about you the most.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might believe you’re on a roll, especially if you have a lot to be thankful for today. But the happy-go-lucky Sagittarius New Moon could inspire you to feel so enthusiastic about what may come next in your life that you are a bit sloppy with the execution of your plans. Instead of building your entire future on a dream, make certain that your strategy is grounded in reality. Success requires equal parts of creative imagination and hard work.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s not that you want to rain on anyone’s parade; it’s just that you value your integrity more than your desire to project hope. Nevertheless, you could set aside your high standards today while you encourage everyone to create his or her own vision. The Sagittarius New Moon occupies your 12th House of Fantasy, so don’t take the easy way out by glossing over the truth just to go along with the crowd. Hold on to your level-headed approach, even if others don’t always appreciate what motivates you. Only you can decide which path you should follow.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You have a cheerful attitude and it seems as if everyone’s taking notice now that the exuberant Sagittarius New Moon activates your 11th House of Social Networking. You’re very easygoing today and don’t require a lot of maintenance. You might even prefer to have a memorable time with your friends without being the center of attention, instead of putting yourself through performance anxiety. Even if you shirk the spotlight, you will still be recognized for the joy you bring to others.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You have a strong desire to know where you are heading in your chosen profession now that the Sagittarius New Moon emphasizes your 10th House of Public Recognition. Your general career path may be the topic of a hot discussion today, but don’t try to reach any final decisions or make a detailed action plan for what comes next. The greatest limitations at this time can arise from within your own mind. Instead, just go ahead and dream big because nearly anything is possible if you simply believe in yourself.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Friday, November 29th

Sharing our feelings is easy today, yet they could become difficult to manage anyway. Concentrate on the highest potential in any interaction instead of imagining problems now. Thankfully, the peaceable Libra Moon helps us all get along. But taking things beyond the conversational stage grows tricky as the willful Sun forms a complex quintile with physical Mars. We may run out of words once the Moon slips into secretive Scorpio at 11:02 pm EST.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may go out of your way to communicate your desires today, but you could take things to an extreme. People might even grow annoyed if you aren’t willing to meet them halfway. Fortunately, your good intentions should be enough to smooth over any ruffled feathers. But others won’t be able to hold a grudge if you simply tell the truth with kindness. You really don’t have to negotiate away your need for independence. Just remember you can still be considerate while honoring your integrity.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Being able to trust your friends means the world to you. Even if you disagree about something important today, it’s better if everyone openly shares what’s on their minds. However, your tendency to gloss over difficult emotions now can create problems down the road. Take extra time to check in with your heart to make sure that you know what you want, even if it’s inconvenient. Being completely honest paves the way to true intimacy.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

Giving up on a good idea today sounds easier than it is, even if you know you cannot add one more item to your list of tasks. The lingering positive energy from yesterday’s easygoing Mercury-Jupiter trine continues to remove obstacles from your path and increases your optimism. However, your resources are limited and you could exhaust yourself trying to deliver on all your promises. Paring back your activities optimizes your efficiency and improves your chances for success.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

It’s easier to talk about what you’re capable of doing today than it is to actually follow through with decisive actions and get concrete results. Accordingly, it may be smarter to spend your day engaging in meetings, making phone calls and writing emails, rather than executing your plans. Networking with potential supporters now can help you develop an effective strategy. Figure out the best way to reach your goals and prepare to make your move.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You’re feeling on edge today because you know that something big is brewing but you can’t yet tell what’s around the next bend. Although your positive attitude works in your favor, you’re also worried that you aren’t in complete control of your destiny. Fortunately, you have more stability now than you realize, so just let the current events flow without trying to direct every single outcome. Trust the universe and let the Force be with you.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may believe that anything you can imagine is possible. Although clever Mercury is beginning to settle down today, your thoughts are still flying all over the place. Just remember that you’re not invincible, so don’t fill up your life with plans based on unrealistic dreams. Reach for the stars, but don’t lose sight of your valuable common sense. There’s nothing wrong with setting ambitious goals now as long as you also keep your feet firmly planted on the ground.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You would love to get by with less hard work now that the reflective Moon is back in your sign. However, you could end up wasting precious time and energy today if you believe that an ingenious shortcut will get you to where you’re going faster than taking the tried and true path. But these days your most reliable approach comes from setting a manageable pace early in the day and then sticking with it as best as you can. Slow and steady wins the race.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You’re feeling your oats today because mischievous Mercury in your sign harmonizes with joyful Jupiter in your 5th House of Fun and Games. You might not be able to forget about all the serious issues in your life, but at least you can put them into a healthy perspective that allows you to have a good time no matter what else is going on. Ultimately, the choice is yours; either focus on all the uncertainty or make a temporary escape and enjoy the power of now.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You still have secrets to keep, yet it may be a struggle to remain quiet for much longer. Nevertheless, it’s more important to honor your commitments, even if you feel comfortable enough to spill the beans. You might be able to see the positive side of sharing everything you know, but it’s not your decision to make now. Take the high road and don’t stir up any unnecessary trouble yet; wait a few days until the Moon is back in your sign before reconsidering your options.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Engaging in small talk is just a waste of time today; you’re eager to dig into the core of the matter. You aren’t interested in acting diplomatically now, even if you realize that it can help you obtain what you want. Thankfully, your friends and associates appreciate your direct and honest approach, so follow your instincts and get down to business without beating around the bush. The early bird gets the worm.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The most boring tasks can morph into lots of fun if you only adjust your perspective. Luckily, the potential for sudden change is still growing. Unpredictable Uranus is in the spotlight today, shocking you with new and exciting experiences — even if you have routine responsibilities to handle before you move on to the more pleasurable stuff. Stay focused and get your work out of the way quickly so you have time to expand your horizons by pursuing other interests that bring you personal satisfaction.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You appear very positive today, even if you’re holding some doubt in reserve while you vacillate between optimism and worry. However, others won’t likely sense your uncertainty, especially if you think it’s to your advantage to hide your lack of confidence. Ultimately, it’s in your best interest if you can find enough courage to share your fears with someone you trust, for they will most likely dissipate once you’ve given them voice.

Your Weekend Love Horoscopes for Nov. 29th to Dec. 1

Weekend Love Horoscopes

November 29 to December 1: Love Potion

Maria DeSimone  Maria DeSimone on the topics of love, horoscopes, astrology

With the Moon in sultry Scorpio you’ll crave emotional depths in love. With Scorpio there’s nothing superficial and certainly nothing halfway.  Either you’re “all-in” when it comes to an affair, or you’re just not interested. Fortunately, the Moon will make fantastic aspects all weekend, supporting the best of what Scorpio has to offer rather than activating his shadowy and sometimes controlling side.

First, on Saturday there will be a trine to Neptune and a sextile to Pluto. This will encourage you and your mate to explore your passionate fantasies in a way that makes both of you feel secure, rather than vulnerable. In addition, the Sun will be at a trine to Uranus on Saturday, offering a burst of sudden vitality and innovative energy to shine a light on whatever it is about your relationship that is most unique. Don’t worry about your love thinking you’re eccentric … this is actually how you’ll win him or her over.

Then, on Sunday, the Moon will make supportive links to Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, Mercury and Mars. WHEW — that’s half of the zodiac all rallying to boost Scorpio’s potential for intimacy and soul-binding erotic moments. This weekend, when it comes to love, the universe has your back.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, November 28th

Experiencing harmony in relationships isn’t likely enough today; we also want to talk about our feelings. The pleasure-seeking Libra Moon reflects our need to play the role of host, with our satisfaction dependent upon others. Sweet Venus opposes joyful Jupiter, adding a sense of optimism, even if our current situations are less than perfect. Thankfully, words come easily now because chatty Mercury forms a harmonizing trine with Jupiter.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You might hit a few emotional speed bumps if you move too fast today. Even if your life is running smoothly, you would be wise to pay attention to a potential problem before it creates trouble. If you’re not careful, your enthusiasm may get the best of you and you could even go too far. Remind yourself throughout the day that your high energy can make others uncomfortable. Tempering your exuberance with a little common sense enables you to lead with your heart while still acknowledging the needs of everyone else.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Enjoying the finer things in life now without overdoing it isn’t as easy as it sounds. You may be tempted to eat or drink more than you should or to spend more money than you have. Thankfully, you don’t need to let these warnings prevent you from having a wonderful time. Go ahead and joyfully indulge in a bit of sensory pleasure, but make sure that you don’t push your limits too far.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You may feel like a million bucks today; you’re at the top of your game when it comes to dishing out your clever repartee. You can easily put your best foot forward and then do your famous verbal tap dance to impress others. However, you might be too smart for your own good now. The power of positive thinking only works if you don’t push the envelope beyond what’s socially acceptable. Taking a calculated risk is a good idea as long as you’re ready to abandon your plans if they go awry.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You can communicate quite effectively today, even if you would rather withhold your emotions. You should be able to manifest your dreams if you just let your intuition take over. However, there’s a delicate balance between your ideals and what you actually achieve. Your romantic fantasies may now be realized, but you must give voice to your feelings or you won’t get what you need. Be brave and speak from your heart.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Letting your errant feelings out into the open can be stressful today, for your current needs might appear out of character for you. Nevertheless, it’s nearly impossible to adjust your desires to what others are willing to give. Meeting someone halfway begins with listening rather than just stating what you want. Finding a way to be emotionally flexible now will better your chances of having a memorable day spent with those you love.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You might prosper in love today, but circumstances could stress you out, nonetheless. Normally, you are careful about what you say and what you eat, but now you are tempted to overindulge. As long as you aren’t concerned with making these pleasures last, this can be quite an amazing day. But tomorrow may not be as pleasant when you realize what you’ve done in the name of immediate gratification. Paying attention to your limits makes more sense and won’t detract from your fun.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Going out of your way to consciously perform random acts of kindness can make your day much more pleasurable. Even if you’re just chatting with your friends today, your optimism encourages those around you. Your spirit of generosity is reflected back to you in the form of greater freedom, more expansive thinking and heightened creativity. Something special will happen if you continue to express love and beauty in an altruistic way.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Say whatever’s on your mind today because the planets can maximize the positive impact of your words. Even if you have felt unforgiving in the past, it may be the right time now to reassess the situation. Relationship issues are best tackled with a loving and supportive approach, but behind the serious talk is your desire to bask in the glory of love. Be extra sweet to someone you cherish and the positive repercussions will ripple back to you quickly.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You like to dream big and your fantasies are over the top today, enticing you away from a more practical approach. Your key planet Jupiter is overstimulated by sensual Venus and mischievous Mercury, encouraging you to partake in one too many social activities. There’s nothing wrong with indulging in the fun, but don’t go overboard. Steer clear from jumping to conclusions before you logically think your vision all the way through.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your organizational skills are operating at peak efficiency, but you could become distracted today and gloss over a few important details. Although you can clearly see the whole picture, it’s difficult to stay on track as temptation tests your self-discipline. It might be too easy to let your responsibilities fall to the wayside now as you seek the pleasure in your life that may be long overdue. Balancing work and play is your best approach — as long as you lean toward having fun.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You want to be appreciated for your actions today and your current routine may send you off in an entirely different direction than you imagined. However, this isn’t a great time to trust your intuition, for you might be attracted to the easiest path instead of the smartest one; your sense of proportion is slightly bent out of shape. Remember, it’s less important to be recognized now than it is to feel good about what you’ve done. True self-esteem comes from within.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It’s all too easy to become obsessed with the ideas, myths and religions of another culture as expansive Jupiter harmonizes with mental Mercury in your 9th House of Distant Places. Falling in love with someone or something is quite possible now. Opportunities for pleasure are knocking at your door, but they won’t wait around forever. Enjoy each experience for what it offers, but don’t ruin it by trying to make it permanent.

Your Daily Horoscopes for November 27th

Our desire to make intelligent decisions today might actually cause us to get bogged down in indecision instead. The analytical Virgo Moon’s stressful aspects with fiery Mars, powerful Pluto, chatty Mercury, stern Saturn and dreamy Neptune keep our moods in flux. Fortunately, our attention is diverted from the chaos when the Moon enters fair-minded Libra at 4:59 pm EST, allowing us to see both sides of any issue as we seek to restore balance.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You don’t like being asked to choose between your professional and personal life. However, your role is changing and your job duties may infringe on your private world more than you prefer. Unfortunately, your resistance to the new arrangement can lead to frustration. Even if you’re stressed out today, try to be optimistic about the future without slipping into denial. Facing the current dilemma and dealing with work issues now enables you to maintain a positive attitude about your future.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

You aren’t one to ignore the facts, but today you may be tempted to avoid the truth to get through a complicated predicament. Thankfully, you can see the positive side of a difficult issue even if it seems irresolvable in the moment. Although the ultimate answer might be just beyond your reach now, going through the motions of seeking a sensible solution helps to boost your confidence along the way to achieving your goals.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You may be struggling to get to the bottom of a complicated situation involving your family, but it’s not clear which stories are the true ones. Usually, you’re pretty good at discerning fact from fiction, but today you are holding everyone to a higher standard. Don’t waste time demanding an unattainable level of accuracy; instead, just do your best with the information you’re given. When in doubt, trust your intuition.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

Someone may claim you’re so gullible that you believe nearly anything — so think twice before you blindly accept what you are being told today. However, it’s not about you being naive; instead, you’re capable of seeing the potential where others might just pass it by. Remember, there’s nothing wrong with having a positive attitude as long as you check your facts before making assumptions that could get you into trouble. Don’t let others rain on your parade.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You can’t decide if it’s a smart idea to accept additional responsibilities today. A new project could lead to the recognition you want and even to a promotion. But you could underestimate the amount of effort that’s required to meet your deadline. Even if the whole deal sounds promising, it’s still not wise to make your life more complicated now by taking on more than you can deliver. Take your time to analyze all the facts before making a final decision.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Relying on your common sense can be tricky now because you keep changing your mind as new information comes to your attention. It may be challenging to remain optimistic, yet it’s important to consider if you are actually fooling yourself. You can see the world through two different lenses today. One makes everything appear better and the other one makes things look worse. Keep in mind that the truth is found somewhere in the middle.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Laying your feelings on the line is never easy, but if you don’t share what’s on your mind today, your frustration could push you right to the edge. Fortunately, everything will become easier for a while once you choose to share whatever you were hiding. You still have a lot of work to do, but you can accomplish anything if you truly believe in yourself. Trusting the process isn’t as great a risk as it seems

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Although the overall prognosis may be quite excellent today, you still have to face your own shadow before you can fully realize the potential that’s all around you. This isn’t about any one specific interaction or a single decision you’re required to make. Your attitude is directly impacted by your thoughts; if you believe that you are successful, then you are. Put your amazing intensity to work and make something magical happen now.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your extra efforts will likely pay off with a bonus check, the possibility of a promotion or at least words of praise. But it isn’t very smart to think that the world owes you something, for you aren’t entitled to rewards you haven’t earned. Ultimately, you won’t do as well if you believe personal satisfaction is guaranteed. Stop worrying about what you want in the present moment and set your sights on a more significant long-term goal. Once you have a plan, get to work.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may not understand why no one has acknowledged you today for your positive contribution. You feel as if you’re doing well responding to all the stressful circumstances, and you know that you deserve more credit now than you’re currently receiving. Nevertheless, your lesson is that accomplishing your goals requires more time than you initially expected. Thankfully, once you accept that success take time to achieve, you might not be so frustrated in the moment. Find comfort in a job well done.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You want to be known as a considerate friend who puts the wishes of others first. But taking care of everyone’s needs except your own isn’t a path to happiness. Unfortunately, you could be so involved with doing what’s right that you inadvertently overlook the much-needed support of an ally. Show your vulnerability by acknowledging that you have needs, too, and you don’t always know the best way to get what you want.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might appear quite enthusiastic about something you are doing today, but you could just be hiding your fears for the sake of simplicity. You may feel as if there are no correct answers anyway, but don’t let this concern stop you. Instead, respond to the current stresses by showing up with an open heart, even if you don’t have a long-term plan in place. It turns out that living in the present moment is the best possible strategy you could have now.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, November 26th

We want to open our minds and expand the spectrum of our experiences as the illuminating Sun anxiously aspects visionary Jupiter. But meanwhile, the exacting Virgo Moon reflects our need to separate useful facts from insignificant ones. Additionally, we can feel the conflict as the practical Virgo Moon narrows our perceptions while the inspirational Sagittarius Sun widens our horizons, making it difficult to maintain an objective perspective.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

There is an undeniable gulf between your thoughts and your feelings today. You prefer to rely on relevant information and clear thinking instead of letting your desires dictate a more subjective agenda. Although sticking to the facts sounds good on paper, the truth is that you’re better off now if you also listen to your intuition. Balancing your head with your heart helps you to fulfill your highest potential.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

It is wise to speak up once you know where your thoughts are taking you. But blurting out a partially formed idea only complicates your life today. Usually, you can slow down and think things through, but your impatience may get the best of you now. Your attempts to sidestep authority or bend the rules won’t work. However, you might be pleasantly surprised if you just acknowledge the limitations imposed on you by others. Simply relax and trust the process.

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You might not be clear about everything that’s happening now, yet you can get to the bottom of a complex situation if you focus on what’s important. Although others may think that you’re just putting on a show, you don’t need to let their assumptions distract you from your real work. Remember, it’s not sensible to set aside your strategy if you believe that your plan will succeed. Just don’t push too hard; taking small steps is smarter than overreaching and then having to admit you were wrong.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You wish that everything would happen on time today, but you may be so obsessive about your schedule that you accidentally miss a potentially memorable experience. Letting go of control isn’t easy now, but it can be a very powerful antidote to your current inflexibility. Quit trying so hard. When you allow your energy to flow with the currents, magic follows you everywhere you go.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may want additional recovery time, but you might not be able to find it today. You are being pulled in multiple directions now, yet the real message is to reconnect with the most practical routines. Even if you feel slightly out of step with what’s going on around you, this probably isn’t a smart time to shift your course. Concentrate on your immediate needs while surfing the waves of change.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The Moon’s return to your straightforward earth sign is a reminder to be as simplistic as possible in your approach to life today. Making some changes on the home front may be helpful, but your time is at a premium now. Nevertheless, frustration arises if you let your own needs go unfulfilled for too long. Divide your day so you can take care of your chores first and then move on to more enjoyable activities later.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You can feel the weight of your responsibilities continuing to grow today, tempting you to retreat from non-critical social activities. Still, you are likely to participate in pointed discussions about the very real issues now facing you and your friends. Ultimately, you must decide your level of involvement. Don’t blindly accept the rules that someone else makes for you; follow your own intuition, instead.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your survival instincts kick in today, prompting you to concentrate on an all-too-familiar unresolved issue. But simultaneously, waves of hope wash onto your shore, making your goals appear closer than before. Don’t give up; extra hard work will be rewarded. Reaching for satisfaction in your dreams can make a huge difference in the days ahead. What you now imagine has the potential to become your future if you want it bad enough.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You have a natural inclination to aim for the stars, even if an unexpected change in circumstances throws you a surprising curve ball today. Your reaction may be immediate, but don’t assume that making a quick decision is better than carefully thinking through all of the alternatives. Others are eager to listen to you and will respect your thought process as long as you consider a variety of possibilities prior to committing to just one.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are in your own earthy element today because the practical Virgo Moon harmonizes with profound Pluto in your sign as it continues to slowly deconstruct and reconstruct your life. Thankfully, there’s no reason to develop several different contingencies; one concrete strategy is enough. Remember, you don’t need multiple options now; you only need the chance to follow through with a plan that makes sense.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Circumstances might force you to think about an old emotional issue that’s still bothering you. Even if you attempt to evade the problem today, you will just be lured back into the melodrama tomorrow. Since you may not feel very comfortable in this situation, play through the possible conversations in your imagination prior to facing them in real time. A bit of advanced mental preparation now makes it easier to speak from your heart.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be feeling a bit more independent these days, but you still must stand up to someone who tries to be authoritative in order to put you in your place. Thankfully, you aren’t willing to do as you are told if you can envision more appealing alternatives. Don’t take the easy way out; the course of least resistance might not lead you to your goals. Once you know what you want, do whatever is necessary to fulfill your dreams.

Although the days might be cooling off, our enthusiasm is firing up. We’re more optimistic about the future now that the radiant Sun is traveling through confident Sagittarius. We want to take care of those we love since the Moon is in nurturing Cancer, and her shift into generous Leo at 6:56 pm EST warms our hearts.

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

The current shift in your awareness is noticeable today as the Sun begins its visit to your 9th House of Adventure.

Ultimately, you need to find new ways to express your freedom, so don’t be too eager now to surrender it without gaining something in return.

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

Relationships grow more complicated as the Sun makes its way through your 8th House of Deep Sharing. You want real intimacy now, and may not be as willing to remain with someone just because it’s safe. Even if security is important to you, don’t take the easy way out. It’s not worth sacrificing your needs just so you can be with someone. Being true to yourself now will make you a better partner in the long run.

(May 21 – Jun 20)

You could be pleasantly surprised that you can find happiness once you remember to express yourself freely without worry or fear of what anyone else might think.

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

You might have withdrawn a bit over the past couple of days, yet your interactions with others may become much more interesting now. Although your feelings could trigger childhood memories, it’s still important to distinguish what happened in your past from the current situation. Allow yourself the chance to connect emotionally with someone you trust to help you through the process. Experiencing give and take in the present moment can greatly enrich your journey.

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You are stepping into a fun-filled phase when your life lightens up and you want to express yourself in a more playful manner. Even if it’s challenging to find the satisfaction you’re seeking, you still might be willing to move forward with anticipation now, rather than close down in fear. It’s certainly more pleasurable to be with those you love than spending your time alone wishing for company. Take a chance and invite someone to join you for a memorable experience.

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are not all that interested in overdoing anything, for self-discipline typically comes easily to you. However, today you may need to manage a new set of issues around your current responsibilities and your desire to spend time with your family. Even if you wish you could let your work slide, you still must follow through on what you started prior to partaking in any relaxation or recreation. Meeting your obligations first allows you to have guilt-free playtime later on.

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You don’t mind being so busy now, but it isn’t a smart idea to equate too much activity with happiness. It’s challenging to know what is enough or when to stop, and you could exhaust yourself before realizing that you can’t keep up with all that you started. Even if your weekend calendar is already set, don’t be afraid to cut back on your schedule. It’s better to have more free time than not have enough time to do what you want. There’s a healthy balance between pleasing others and pleasing yourself.

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You have had some intense experiences recently and thankfully are at the threshold of a more relaxing phase now. Instead of continuing to dig deeper into your feelings, today is a good day to stabilize a current situation. Fortunately, this change of attitude can also be a relief to the people closest to you. Your newfound confidence could have you spending too much money these days, so keep an eye on your resources to make sure you’re using them wisely.

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

It’s a smart idea to consciously make use of your birthday month by taking the time to do those things you have set aside because responsibilities called you elsewhere. The bright beams of the Sun shifted into your sign last night, bringing you good luck, new opportunities and exciting adventures. Do what you do best; inspire others by living your life to the fullest.

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Concentrating on your work is nearly impossible today because your thoughts are already focusing on the weekend once the Sun shifts into your 12th House of Imagination, encouraging your fantasies to take flight. Your mind is bouncing around all over the place and there doesn’t seem to be much you can do to stop it. Instead of resisting the temptation or denying your intuition, give yourself permission to follow your daydreams and see where they lead.

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may receive much-needed support now that the Sun is pushing through your 11th House of Friends. Nevertheless, the dramatic Leo Moon reminds you of just how bored you become if you can’t break free from your everyday routine. You are more interested in pursuing creative activities now than showing up for your regular tasks. Be thankful that others are there for you, but don’t expect them to help you escape from whatever responsibilities that could be holding you back. If you must show your rebellious nature, be prepared to pursue your dreams on your own.

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You could stir up all kinds of trouble today, especially if you start more projects than you can possibly finish. Your smartest approach is to avoid overload and pare back your commitments as much as possible. Don’t wait until others have become fully dependent upon you, for it will be more difficult to make changes once they do. However, there’s no reason to eliminate all pleasurable activities or you will likely have regrets later on. Find a way to have some fun without turning your life upside down.
