Horoscopes
Aries
You are picking up more information than usual through observation these days. This is the work of Mercury in your solar eighth house, as it inclines you to look before you speak or draw conclusions, and to look for layers and levels to a problem or situation. With a Mercury-Neptune influence today, dear Aries, it’s a good time to look at ideas and interactions in a different way, perhaps with a little more compassion or imagination. Your thinking is creative, particularly when it comes to matters of the past, intimate relationships, and your own inner workings. You may be able to see a different level of someone you care about or gain better understanding of your own motivations. This can be a time when you’re fascinated with a mystery or given to wondering and musing.
Taurus
You are coming across well in your one-on-one relationships these days, dear Taurus, and today this is emphasized, largely due to a boost of compassion, intuition, and imagination to your thoughts, perceptions, and conversations. Your ability to see the other side of the coin is strengthened with Mercury in your partnership sector, and today Neptune is connecting with Mercury, adding insight and warmth to the mix. You might be connecting with people through your perceptiveness and open mind now, in either platonic or love relationships. Be accepting and tolerant now in order to let all of the good things in. The Moon transits your romance and creativity sector all day, and this stimulates a creative approach to your day.
Gemini
These days, you’re looking at the details more than you are concerned with overview or big picture thinking, dear Gemini, and this is helpful for tasks that involve sorting, organizing, and editing. Today, Mercury connects with Neptune, adding imagination and compassion to the mix. If you face perplexing problems, be sure to take a step back from them, as intuition is more likely to kick in if you do so. In fact, some very creative ideas can come to you now, particularly related to work and/or health. People may not fully get you, but they are flowing with you and attracted to you. This can be an especially contemplative and imaginative – even inspiring – day.
Cancer
Allow yourself some freedom to dream, imagine, and create today, dear Cancer. There is wonderful energy for imaginative expression now. Your tastes, and even your conversations or art work, can have an exotic flavor. You might be looking at your love life through a different lens, and romantic sensibilities are strong. You might be able to talk yourself into or out of something now, quite successfully! If you are able to be both hopeful about the future and happy in the present, then you are in especially good shape. Fantasy that doesn’t take away color from the moment is truly the most helpful. You can enjoy interesting conversations or musings now.
Leo
This is a time for appealing to your own, and others’, sense of wonder and feelings of compassion, dear Leo, with Mercury in harmony with Neptune. You might be intrigued by a mystery that begs unraveling, or you might enjoy entertainment that engages your emotions and imagination. It’s a good time for stepping back from the regular routine and letting your imagination go. You may be releasing negative feelings about a relationship today, or at least working on doing so. Conversations tend to be more sympathetic now. You’re presenting your ideas a little more creatively than usual, and you can be an engaging speaker or writer, although perhaps not as focused on facts and figures.
Virgo
Sometimes differences in values, taste, or style can disrupt relationships, dear Virgo, but today, they actually add something to your interactions. Acceptance is strong now, and you may very well learn from different viewpoints and perspectives, as well as inspire others with yours. Imaginative activities and thinking can be themes, and today is about connecting to others on a completely different level, forgiving, accepting, and letting go of stress and negative emotion. The Moon is in your sign all day, bringing emotional needs to the forefront. You are also far more noticeable for your personality than you are on other days.
Libra
Today, you could be in an especially sharing, generous mood, dear Libra, and it can be a good time to try to let go of possessive feelings. Imaginative and creative impulses increase today, although it’s more on a mental level than it has to do with physical activity, so you could find yourself dreaming up all sorts of way to enjoy yourself! Listen to hunches and ideas that seem to come up out of the blue. If you can, avoid work or chores that require a lot of focus or attention to detail, and instead focus on ideas and overviews for best results. Allow yourself some breathing room for freeform thinking.
Scorpio
This is a day that favors creative expression, dear Scorpio, and it’s also quite wonderful for connecting with others imaginatively. Conversations can be uplifting, and fantasies or musings are positive, lighting up your higher mind and opening up new possibilities. Important messages communicated over the phone or through texts or chat may not fare as well as in-person ones, as there are many subtleties and nuances that are delivering your messages today. You are persuasive and taking things in stride, all adding to your personal appeal.
Sagittarius
The day may not have a clear mission, dear Sagittarius, but it may not need one with Mercury and Neptune in harmony and stimulating your need to color outside the lines. You are seeking out slightly out of the ordinary or colorful connections, ideas, and experiences. Some of you may be reminiscing about the past and enjoying your memories. It’s a good time for letting bygones be bygones, especially with family. You might see others in a more positive light, or in a more human light, seeing beauty in weakness or imperfections. You might help someone out with your advice or simply through listening and acknowledging.
Capricorn
Today is strong for looking at relationships, ideas, and problems from a different perspective, dear Capricorn, and quite possibly one that is especially sensitive, accepting, and understanding. It can be a good time to be or have a confidante. Your dreams are inspiring, or information coming in can inspire you. While attention to detail is not especially favored today, you’re certainly making up for it with imagination and creativity. There is some tendency to avoid unpleasant work or tasks, but it’s a strong day for entertaining new ideas, dreams, and possibilities.
Aquarius
Today is more about hunches and inspiration than it is about the details or the facts and figures, dear Aquarius. Intuition is easier to access today for business ideas, particularly the more creative ones. Recent ideas can begin to come together, or you see the missing links now. Your own communications are received well today, and it’s more about the delivery or approach (soft sell) than the content. Interactions with others are a little kinder, gentler, and possibly inspiring, and your insight can add another dimension to a connection.
Pisces
This is a day that favors imagination and creative flourishes, dear Pisces. Your ruler, Neptune, in your sign is harmonizing with Mercury, creating a good atmosphere for using your imagination and accessing your intuition. This is also a strong time for reaching out to others, sharing ideas or a unique perspective, entertaining new ideologies, and learning something new. You might come to an agreement with a partner or good friend, or connect intuitively with a special person in your life. You could be motivated to give voice to topics that are important to you. that may have been difficult to talk about recently.

VIRGO STRONG
Meticulous, discriminating, pure, practical, health conscious, hard working. Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic.
SCORPIO STRONG
Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE WEAK
We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.
EARTH STRONG
We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.
AIR WEAK
We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.
BALANCE OF MODES
CARDINAL WEAK
This is not a time that we tend to naturally initiate actions. We may be stronger at following up than starting anew. Survival mechanisms may be weaker now.
MUTABLE STRONG
We are flexible, adaptable, willing, open to change, and possibly flighty or nervous.
LUNAR PHASE: THIRD QUARTER
Moon from 90 to 45 degrees behind the Sun.
We have strong beliefs and are likely to put them into action. We have the wisdom to know when to act, but sometimes can be inflexible.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on November 6th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
