This is the time of year that we are supposed to reflect and be thankful for the good things we have and all of the blessings that we receive. Endless Facebook posts reiterate that we are thankful for friends, jobs, living accommodations, and plentitude. But we never stop to consider that maybe we should be grateful for the shitty times too. Maybe we should give thanks for the ominous horoscopes, the rough times, and the unfortunate situations. After all, these are the times that create radical change, new beginnings, and rid us of what no longer serves us. These times truly make us who we are. It is the manure that makes strong healthy plants. So thanks Universe and whatever is out there, for the good times and the bad.
Scorpio
This is a very self-involved month for Scorpios. It’s a good thing though, as it is actually very natural and necessary at this time. This is a time for relying on yourself, taking an internal self evaluation, and being by yourself. Step out of the spotlight for a bit while you think about your redevelopment. If you are looking to change your image, now is a good time to do so, as Scorpios will be going through a highly transformative period. Be extremely cautious with your words as they hold a greater strength this month with Venus in your communication sector. Try expressing yourself poetically. You will find unusual fire.
Sagittarius
Now is a time for making peace with the past. What is on the surface does not match what is going on behind the scenes. A prominent internal struggle is on your charts. You may not even be able to name what it is, but your mind is occupied with it instead of allowing you to being present and enjoy the gifts of today. You may make some advances in the workplace, which is good because overindulgence in pleasure has put a dent in your wallet. You are ready to start sharing a little bit of yourself with the world again.
Capricorn
This is a time for new things in the Capricorn’s life. A shakeup will occur in your house of friendships, caused by either adding or subtracting a very important friend. Socializing still seems to be in your big picture and will continue to be as Venus hangs around you for the next four months. I hope you have been a good a little Capricorn, because Kharma and the forces of its nature will play out heavily for you and you will sit witness to it this month. A career change (maybe just a small one) is in your cards whether you realized it or not.
Aquarius
You are split between two opposing forces that need your attention. And both forces want a lot, the first being responsibilities (this may be in the form of work, children, studies) and the second being your private, intimate area (this may be a special relationship, your health, a secret). There will be much activity in both areas and as one demands attention, the other will demand more. You may start off caring more about responsibilities, but by the full moon, all of your attention will be or should be on the other matter. You will also have easy money come your way this month.
Pisces
Right now is more about the vision than the practical elements. The details will all fall in line later. For some time now, you have been feeling pinned up or held back from being your true self. Radical changes will take place as you start to make the small steps in changing your life. It is better to be present and live in the moment, than to be lost in a world wrapped up in the outcomes of tomorrow. Your month will be busy and scattered with no relief in sight until the very end of the month.
Aries
Aries are perplexed with the hole in the bucket. Where is the money going? An examination of debts and shared finances will reveal the answer. There is possibly a huge imbalance in a partnership––either financially or due to some similarly powerful force. When stress gets high, hit the track. Time alone exercising in the fresh fall air will reset your mind and help you to see the bigger picture. What once was negativity and pessimism will turn to optimism and a lighter heart as the month ends. Good for you… it was mainly how you were looking at it.
Taurus
All things eventually come to light. A problem that keeps getting swept under the carpet blows up with great energy this month. Time to address it. This will most likely have to do with a relationship or partnership. Once the stickiness is out of the way, a great balance will be found. But the explosion must happen, as your emotions will be all over the place this month. It is a great time for a personal revelation. Chaos before brilliance is the theme. Once the roadblocks are gone, you will find yourself a dreamer once more.
Gemini
Take the time to finish projects that you started––especially around the house. Now is the time to get organized and sorted. I promise you, Geminis that don’t take the time to regroup and tie up loose ends will miss great opportunities at the end of this month. At this time, neglectful actions of your health and living will come back to haunt you.
Now is the time to make “health” and “fitness” words in your daily vocabulary again. Remember that any dramas and traumas that happen this month–– especially at work––are simply clearing the way for better conditions. Om Nama Shiva!
Cancer
The solar eclipse that happened on the third held great clearing energies for your house. It is time to clear the air with a romantic partner or someone who you are in a partnership with. The main issue is how to balance seriousness and fun. Relationships that have been too much work need revamping or just completely letting go of. It is also a time to return back to some fun things that use to ignite your soul. Call it a hobby or a passion, but now is the time to dust the easel off and get your creative energies flowing again.
Leo
This month may not seem as hectic or productive as your usual months, but rest assured this down time is exactly what you need to achieve your future goals. A big move is ahead of you that will require an extreme amount of attention. You may feel an air of seriousness take over your family life. Old problems will seem to resurface again, yet you are expected to take a more participatory role this time around. You may feel like you are second guessing your intuition this month. Don’t let your confidence falter; it is only big, fat Jupiter messing around with your head.
Virgo
The beginning of the month may start off a bit hectic or almost as if you are going backwards. This will apply until your ruler, Mercury, is out of retrograde on the 10th. It may be hard for you to believe that the month will end auspiciously for you. But it’s true. By the end of November, you will look back with great satisfaction on your accomplishments. Here are the two keys for you to make that happen: first, do not take on any new endeavors. Concentrate on the ones currently on the fire. If you take on too much, you will be pissed at the end of the month when you want to relax. Second, remain extremely flexible, as your schedule must be rearranged in order to achieve your goals.
Libra
Dear Libra, now is not the time to be your usual charming, social, outgoing self. You are better serving yourself and others this month by reeling it in, pulling back, and recharging. You will find yourself with a houseguest or two this month. So, concentrate on your home; make it as clean and comfortable as possible and you will find greater ease throughout the month. You should also regain focus on your finances and build up again. Staying in is the perfect way to do this. You may find yourself being repaid a debt of generosity, or you may receive an unexpected bonus.
