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 Feng Shui News for Dec. 4th – ‘Santa’s List Day’

On ‘Santa’s List Day,’ before he checks twice to find out whether you’ve been naughty or nice, do be sure to write your wishes in red ink. Better yet, write nine specific wishes in red ink and then put that list where you can see it during the day.

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.

Open your mind, but hold your tongue — that’s the best advice we have when communication planet Mercury moves back into bold and sometimes reckless Sagittarius on December 4, 2013.

Mercury is a bit of wild-card in Sagittarius. That’s because Mercury is all about thoughts and words, and Sagittarius is all about action. This translates into a time when we may find ourselves speaking too soon, accidentally saying rude things, or spouting off things that aren’t true.

If you’re prone to telling tall tales or getting your facts wrong, or if you know anyone like that, it’s going to be exacerbated now. We’re all advised to try harder to think before we speak and to consider others’ feelings more. But there’s an upside to Mercury in Sagittarius, too.

Because Sagittarius is so open-minded and adventurous, our thoughts will become more expansive, too. We might start thinking about travel or going back to school or starting a new job. Sagittarius is a visionary, so our minds will wander far and wide during this time.

Make big plans for December! With Mercury in Sagittarius until December 24, it’s a great month for feeling confident, thinking positive and doing something exciting.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for December 4th

As the day begins, anxiety and stress seem to have the upper hand due to an off-kilter, 150-degree alignment taking place between Pallas in Virgo and Uranus in Aries (12:49AM). Avoid mental fatigue and exhaustion around the time of this celestial contact. Better vibrations intrude into your life thereafter — thanks to the Moon in Capricorn forming a supportive, 60-degree liaison with Neptune in Pisces (3:09AM) while the Moon parallels Mercury (3:44AM) and the Sun makes a 60-degree constructive aspect with Ceres (4:16AM). The Moon-Neptune connection stimulates your psychic sensitivity and creative imagination while the other two aspects can give your correspondence a noticeable lift and enhance your productivity across the board.  Think of bold ways to promote your worldly stature as the Moon makes it monthly conjunction with distant Pluto (3:20PM). Tuning into your spiritual willpower and mental concentration — with an absence of egocentric, know-it-all pride — is one good way of working positively with energy coming from the key planet that rules the unconscious realms of humanity’s intelligence.  The enthusiastic vibes of Sagittarius gain a new cheerleader as Mercury enters this sign (6:43PM) until December 24. Maintain your thinking, attitudes and five senses operating on the highest levels of fortitude and ingenuity. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

This day also provides a good time to begin efforts involving self-improvement or understanding.

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.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for December 3rd

If you are feeling happy-go-lucky in any sort of way, then play that up to the max. The reason is that a double emphasis of Sagittarius — Sun and Moon together in this potentially ebullient and achievement-oriented, 9th sign of the zodiac — only occurs for approximately two days in any calendar year. Plus, this morning’s supportive, 60-degree rapport from Mercury to Mars (8:36AM) is a clear energizer for literary, educational and athletic hobbies. Improve your tennis backhand, golf swing or volleyball serve. Consider signing up for classes, conferences or workshops that pique your interest.  Later on, the Moon forms a square aspect to the red planet Mars in Virgo (7:46PM). This feisty interaction — always occurring twice a month in either a waxing or waning phase — has the capacity to increase the tensions within the psychic atmosphere.  In addition, today’s 90-degree Moon-Mars encounter begins another void-of-course lunar experience that lasts for 3 hours until 10:50PM. Keep a low profile while the Moon is in its meandering condition and then focus your attention on career aims and professional work when the Moon enters Capricorn — the earthy, tenth sign of the zodiac at 10:50PM. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of December 2nd

An optimistic New Moon in Sagittarius may renew your faith in love on Monday. In particular, we’re talking about the kind of love that takes you on a magic carpet ride, opening you up to a whole new world. Set your sights on the exotic vacation you and your sweetheart never had the opportunity to take, and make it happen if possible. The itch to travel will be strong — especially after Wednesday when Mercury enters Sagittarius. The real headline news in love this week, however, has more to do with Mars. The planet of assertive drive will enter relationship-oriented Libra on Saturday, where he’ll settle in for an unusually long visit — until July 2014! Think all is fair in love and war? Not so fast…

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Big news, Aries! On Saturday, Mars, your ruler, will enter your 7th House of Partnership. This transit happens about once every two years, but this time it’ll be extra special. Why? In 2014, Mars will turn retrograde, giving you an opportunity to carefully revisit your approach to partnership matters. How are you using your energy in relationship? Are you fighting with your partner for no good reason or are you avoiding a fight because you’re afraid of rocking the boat? Oh, and by the way, what happened to your sex life? These questions and more will be answered over the next several months.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might not even be looking for the opportunity for a new intimate encounter this week, but thanks to Monday’s New Moon it’s quite possible that someone will approach you with a sexy request. Whether or not you choose to accept is up to you, of course, but if you do, be sure not to kiss and tell. On Friday, there’s a testy link between Mercury and Neptune to caution you against sharing any of that private pillow talk with friends. You wouldn’t want to be the subject of gossip.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

On Monday, a New Moon may promise a fresh start for you and your mate. If things have been dull in the relationship department, it’s possible this lunation will open up the door for new adventures in love. After Wednesday, you’ll even find it easier to communicate with your partner and you may decide to pursue a new course of study together for fun. If single, your sex life is about to get a major jump start. Mars will enter your romance sector for the first time in nearly two years. Ooh la la!

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Because you’re ruled by the fluctuating Moon, it’s no surprise that wherever the Moon goes in your chart is where your mood will focus. This week, on Wednesday and Thursday, you’ll have your emotions set on your partner as the Moon makes her way through your relationship sector. An intuitive grasp of your mate’s feelings will be easy to achieve. On Saturday, Mars will enter partnership Libra and your domestic 4th House of Home and Family. You and your sweetheart may have more quarrels about a home renovation project. Don’t lose sight of what really matters.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Are you looking for love in all the wrong places? This week, a brilliant New Moon might send just the signal you need to help you get your heart out of the “lost zone.” Anticipate at least one opportunity to date someone new. This person will likely captivate you more because of your differences rather than what you have in common. Be careful on Friday, however, because it’s possible that you’ll misunderstand your new paramour’s signals. Talking about a sexual fantasy doesn’t mean it’s time to manifest it!

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may feel extra sentimental about romance on Wednesday and Thursday, as the Moon tours your 5th House of True Love. While it’ll be a wonderful time to shower someone close with affection, at the same time you may feel distracted because these feelings will occur in the middle of your hectic work week. Give yourself permission to let loose once in a while.  Besides, having your lover in bed will be more fun than taking home all of that paperwork!

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Get ready to feel more energy than you have in quite some time! Mars, the planet that rules our “get up and go” factor, will move into your sign this Saturday, and isn’t going anywhere for several months. For the next few weeks you’ll feel passion return to your veins as Mars prompts you to go after what and whom you want most! You might notice a stronger sex drive, as well, as the ability to make that first move if you’re typically the shy type. You’ve got game!

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

A confusing conversation with your lover may set the tone for bewilderment rather than fulfillment in the romance department — especially by Friday. You might have unrealistic expectations about a relationship or what a lover can offer you in return for what you can offer him or her. On Saturday, Mars will enter your 12th House of Privacy. It might become more difficult to outwardly pursue someone you’ve got a crush on. You’ll need to make an extra effort because your intentions might not be as easy to read.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

A New Moon in your sign on Monday can spell the beginning of something wonderful because it’ll allow you to write a brand new chapter in the story of your life. If a relationship is your priority now, you can certainly use this energy to help you attract an emotional equal. You’ll have an even stronger edge by Wednesday, when Mercury enters your sign and helps you communicate what you want clearly. You’ll offer up scintillating conversation that’ll make it difficult for someone you admire to ignore.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

If there’s something private you’ve longed to share with your partner but somehow couldn’t open up enough to reveal, all of that may change this week. A New Moon will illuminate your 12th House of Privacy, opening up an opportunity for you to make a personal breakthrough. Because the Moon rules your partnership sector, it’ll be easy for you to “go there” with your mate and not worry so much that he or she will judge or condemn you. Trust that by sharing your innermost feelings, it’ll only draw the two of you closer.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

If you’re single, you’ll want to focus on your circle of friends to help you breathe new life into your romantic prospects. A gorgeous New Moon on Monday will open up the floodgates in your social life. A pal may offer to set you up on a date or you might go out with a group of friends and meet someone special. On Wednesday, when Mercury (ruler of your romance sector) enters your friendship sector, you may consider asking a friend for advice about your love life. He or she can help you solve a relationship problem.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

On Saturday, with sexy Mars moving into your erotic 8th House of Deep Transformation and Sex, on Saturday you’ll have the stamina to pursue your most taboo fantasies in the bedroom. Fortunately, your partner will be on board! You might experience some tension, however, when it comes to shared finances. If your mate has built up any credit card debt, for example, you may get into a quarrel. Alternatively, you and your partner might find yourselves in a position where you need to address a tax issue. Don’t let money problems ruin your great love affair.

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 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 Charm for November 27th is Gemini the Twins

Your Charm for Today

Gemini the Twins

Today’s Meaning:  

This aspect of your life will be strongly influenced by a person who is adaptable, versatile, communicative, witty, intellectual, eloquent, youthful and lively. This could be a sibling, a child or a very close friend.

General Description:

Third sign of the Zodiac, May 22nd to June 21st. Ruling planet Mercury; correct metal, Silver. Those born under the influence of Gemini were believed to be endowed with strong intellectual powers, high aspirations, to be shrewd, ingenious and vivacious, but restless and fond of change.

The Greeks and Romans had great faith in Agates amulets, wearing them for health, wealth, and long life. Queen Elizabeth possessed a large engraved Agate, which was supposed to be endowed with magical powers

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.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, Nov. 27th

Before cosmic fireworks detonate at the monthly Moon-Mars union in Virgo (3:45AM), you may be savvy enough to solve some key problems as Mercury makes an inspirational, 72-degree link to Pallas (3:00AM).  Meanwhile, the Moon uniting with the red planet every month is no walk in the park and, in this situation, the alignment at 3:45AM also begins a 10+ hour void lunar twilight zone that lasts until 2:01PM when the Moon enters Libra. Avoid unnecessary entanglements with temperamental individuals during the void-of-course Moon cycle. It is much better to stay out of the spotlight and perform good deeds without calling attention to yourself.  Once the Moon enters Libra (2:01PM), the next 2+ days provide an opportunity to improve the quality of key relationships while you plunge into favorite arts, crafts and hobbies. Helping you be a creative mover and shaker in society is a supportive, 60-degree link between Mercury and Venus (6:46PM) followed by a mind-expanding trine of 120-degrees connecting Mercury and Jupiter (11:24PM).  You may feel like soaring into the stratosphere of worldly success, but watch out for hubris and a sudden drop in productivity as Ceres squares Pluto (11:51PM). Fortunately, this Ceres-Pluto clash may have little sustaining power as only 10 minutes later, the Moon makes its monthly union with Vesta in Libra (12:01AM on Thursday). This Moon-Vesta affiliation is a boost for sisterhood ties as well as providing the potential for making gains via wise investment planning. [Note to readers: All times are calculated for Pacific Standard Time. Be sure to adjust all times according to your own local time so the alignments noted above will be exact for your location.]

Wednesday – The Day of Wisdom, The Day of Mercury

blog

WEDNESDAY

The Day of Wisdom
 The Day of Mercury

wodensdaeg (Anglo-Saxon)
mittwoch (Germanic)
dies mercurii (Latin)
budh-var (Hindu)
boodh (Islamic)
mercredi (French)
sui youbi (Japanese

Traditionally known as the fourth day of the week. This day was associated with Odin the God of War, Wisdom, Agriculture and Poetry. He was also regarded as the God of the Dead. The Anglo-Saxons changed the name from ‘Odin’s Day’ to ‘Woden’s Day’, whilst the French referred to the day as ‘Mercredi’ or ‘Mercury’s Day’, Mercury being the God of Science, Commerce, Travellers, Rogues, and Thieves.

In most of Europe Wednesday was thought to be a very unlucky day whilst in the USA quite the opposite was believed as the following New England rhyme shows: ‘Monday for health,
Tuesday for wealth,
Wednesday the best of all.
Thursday for losses,
Friday for crosses,
And Saturday no luck at all!’

The above rhyme has according to research also been associated with selecting days to get married. The Persians associated Wednesday with the name ‘Red Letter Day’. It is believed that this was because they believed that the moon was created on this day.

According to the English historian Richard Grafton certain dates of the month were unlucky as published in the ‘Manual’ in 1565. Days throughout the year were identified and of course could have related to any day of the week. The date was the most important point to consider. The work was reputed to have some credence with support given by astronomers of the day.

Your Charm for November 26th is The Caduceus

Your Charm for Today

The Caduceus

Today’s Meaning:

You will find you have within you the ability to resolve all conflicts and disagreements with regard to this aspect. You will find an eloquence you did not realize before.

General Description:  

The staff of Mercury was given to him by Apollo in exchange for the lyre. The rod was endowed with the remarkable power of deciding all quarrels and bestowing wonderful eloquence upon its possessor. Mercury proved this when he saw two serpents fighting. Placing the rod between them and using his eloquence he reconciled the serpents, who then embraced each other, and becoming attached to the rod formed the caduceus. The pine cone is credited with health giving power, and the wings symbolize speed and the flight of thoughts between friends. This ancient talisman was supposed to be a charm for prosperity, rendering its possessor healthy, wealthy and wise.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Wed., November 20th

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

Aries Horoscope

(Mar 21 – Apr 19)

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

Taurus Horoscope

(Apr 20 – May 20)

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

Gemini Horoscope

(May 21 – Jun 20)

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

Cancer Horoscope

(Jun 21 – Jul 22)

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

Leo Horoscope

(Jul 23 – Aug 22)

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

Virgo Horoscope

(Aug 23 – Sep 22)

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

Libra Horoscope

(Sep 23 – Oct 22)

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

Scorpio Horoscope

(Oct 23 – Nov 21)

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

Sagittarius Horoscope

(Nov 22 – Dec 21)

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

Capricorn Horoscope

(Dec 22 – Jan 19)

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

Aquarius Horoscope

(Jan 20 – Feb 18)

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

Pisces Horoscope

(Feb 19 – Mar 20)

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

Daily Cosmic Calendar for Wednesday, Nov. 20th

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