The challenges that appear during the coming weeks could point out what needs to be changed and give you the steely determination to break away from unpleasant associations. You may become more ambitious, but November is a time to gather experience rather than to test your wings. Maintain a low profile in November and early December when you should avoid making changes which could turn into an albatross around your neck. By January you may be searching for greener pastures or experience situations that require you adjust your outlook. In March and April be willing to try out innovative methods and accept applause for your originality.
