HOROSCOPES November in the stars.

The future revealed: your essential guide to NOVEMBER

SCOR PIO

24 October – 22 November

Achieving results in areas that others have viewed with some scepticism will be gratifying. However, you mustn’t appear to have grown too fond of the sound of your own voice. It’s easy to play into the hands of cynics who resent your success and like the idea of tarnishing your reputation whenever possible. lucky day 27th – fortune favours you when you’re most in need.

SAGITTARIUS

23 November – 21 December

Some individuals may think you should be tackling mundane work or responsibilities. Unfortunately, they fail to see the part of you that desperately wants to engage in your creative and innovative streak. Does this mean you intend to ignore the practical side of life? No. But you certainly won’t become a slave to convention. lucky day 11th – you’re in tune with a figure from your past.

CAPRICORN

22 December – 20 January

Although your strength and determination will be much admired, you mustn’t come across as too single-minded for your own good. You’re facing a situation in which it would be helpful to prove that you know when compromises must be made and people allowed to try things their own way. lucky day 2nd – sharing heartfelt opinions breaks down barriers.

AQUARIUS

21 January – 19 February

Long-awaited remedies for home or family issues will appear out of the blue. Be especially alert around 12 November, when a Full Moon highlights the domestic section of your chart and you suddenly see even the most complicated issue with great clarity. Just don’t allow opportunities to slip through your fingers due to inattention. lucky day 6th – unexpected news brings enlightenment.

PISCES

20 February – 20 March

Travel or potentially fruitful meetings could be disrupted. But don’t put the blame on anybody striving to keep everything running smoothly for you. You may have to adopt a philosophical attitude to hitches, and keep promising yourself that, during the second half of the month, you’ll accomplish all you’ve set out to do. lucky day 24th – strangers provide a solution to an ongoing problem.

ARIES

21 March – 20 April

Someone with whom you normally share closeness, bordering on intimacy, will become distant and unfriendly. What you mustn’t do is overreact. Instead, be sufficiently patient to ignore slights or insults, while trusting that this relationship is worth too much to allow it to disintegrate simply because of difficult circumstances. lucky day 8th – much-wanted outcomes become a reality.

TAURUS

21 April – 21 May

The misuse of power and influence is to be avoided, especially with Mars confronting Pluto. Yes, you should have the chance to persuade others to your way of thinking, but not by using tactics that could be seen as unethical. As the month progresses, you must play to the gallery in the best way possible. lucky day 22nd – taking on changes once seen as irksome pays dividends.

GEMINI

22 May – 21 June

If a partner or loved one fails to support your views, put it down to experience. And don’t allow it to whittle away your confidence just when you hope to be at your most self-assured. By pursuing your goals completely independently of anyone else, you’ll go up in the estimation of those whose opinions count. lucky day 14th – wanting something enough means you can make it yours.

CANCER

22 June – 23 July

Don’t panic as certain individuals lean on you when they are at their most vulnerable. With Venus entering a caring section of your chart followed by the Sun, you needn’t worry about failing to live up to expectations. Just make sure, however, that what starts out as a one-off act of charity doesn’t become a permanent liability. lucky day 26th – commitments suddenly become manageable, even enjoyable.

LEO

24 July – 23 August

You’ll be inclined to tackle a challenging set-up imaginatively. Fortunately, a confidante or ally will insist that it’s time for a pragmatic and commonsense approach if you’re to achieve the best outcome. But remember this is merely a temporary phase, and it’s important not to let your vital spark of creativity fade altogether. lucky day 7th – moves perceived as trivial prove advantageous to all.

VIRGO

24 August – 23 September

Perhaps not everyone will understand why you’ve become keen to indulge friends or family members at a point when you have so many obligations to deal with. Rather than trying to explain, you should continue with what seems right to you and, a little later on, enjoy seeing the positive results of your efforts. lucky day 13th – inhibitions fade as you articulate your true feelings.

LIBR A

24 September – 23 October

Take care not to escalate misunderstandings over much of what you have and own. It will be hard to get crucial messages across, at least until 20 November, when Mercury ends its three-week retrograde phase. Remember, those concerned will be as keen as you are – maybe more so – to seal deals that are mutually beneficial. lucky day 10th – contentious matters are thrashed out as you speak up.
