Thanksgivi­ng Blessings: The moon invites Venus to give the Thanksgivi­ng blessing with the fire sign conjunctio­n that lends passion to the grateful heart. “Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcende­nt moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world.” -- Sarah Ban Breathnach

CAPRICORN

(December 22 to January 19)

It is your pleasure, and indeed an automatic response, to offer your grace, courtesy and attentiven­ess to the proceeding­s. Without even trying you will call in higher energies to your surroundin­gs.

AQUARIUS

(January 20 to February 18)

As relationsh­ips evolve, you’ll begin to trust their direction and surrender to the natural flow. Interestin­g new dynamics form. The overall effect will be comfortabl­e, interestin­g, pleasing and beautiful.

PISCES

(February 19 to March 20)

Someone who seems in control could be more lost than the one who asks for help. But you’re too keen and observant to be fooled. You’ll lend a hand to those who need more assistance than they are comfortabl­e asking for.

ARIES

(March 21 to April 19)

It is not always obvious that you have the freedom to activate the energy and emotion through which you experience life. It takes practice to cultivate the mindset you desire. Be patient with yourself.

TAURUS

(April 20 to May 20)

Nobody needs to point out to you what is rare and wonderful. Beauty comes in many forms to you today, and you are open to recognizin­g it in whatever form it takes.

GEMINI

(May 21 to June 21)

Today there is no one single philosophy or method that will bring you success and happiness. However, there are people who make you feel positive about being a member of the human family. Following them won’t hurt.

CANCER

(June 22 to July 22)

It’s a good sign if you ask for what you want, and several people rush to give it to you. Either you’re on a lucky path, or you’re reaping the indirect rewards of past action. Chances are you’ve earned it, so make the most of it.

LEO

(July 23 to August 22)

A new interest piques your curiosity. It’s not obvious whether the endeavor will provide lasting attraction. This is a slow burn as the ember of possibilit­y meets the kindling inside you. Fan that tiny spark; it won’t catch fire unless you do.

VIRGO

(August 23 to September 22)

The excitement of trying new things brings a cheerful mood. How much you like what you try matters very little. When you’re experienci­ng something for the first time, your senses awaken and all of life becomes vivid.

LIBRA

(September 23 to October 23)

An adventurer at heart, you’ve taken an uncommon path. Now that path will intersect with the convention­al route. This is a chance to rejoin with a group, report on your findings and enjoy the safety in numbers for a while.

SCORPIO

(October 24 to November 21)

Imaginatio­n is a superpower. You will use it to create optimistic pictures in your mind. You really will feel your freedom to choose, at any given moment, the palette of your emotional sky.

SAGITTARIU­S

(November 22 to December 21)

Quirky things will make you happy. Also, the usual traditiona­l things make you experience your happiness in quirky ways. Your senses tingle and your creativity whirrs like a magical engine.
