Horoscopes
Aries
This is not an ideal day for smooth communications and directions, dear Aries, but it’s a good time for the strengthening of a relationship or a deeper connection with a person or project you feel especially passionate about. There could be word of money or support coming through, a windfall of sorts, or an open-hearted conversation that perks you up. Your people instincts are powerful, and you may find joy in an intimate moment or a moment of profound self-honesty. This is an excellent time for considering your deeper needs as others are responsive and some of the usual barriers and boundaries dissolve. New insights about yourself or an essential person in your life can be motivating and heartwarming. Accepting others’ help, sharing responsibilities, and combining resources or talents in order to advance your goals makes sense now, and allows for maximum benefit from your experiences. While plans may not be on schedule, hearts are in the right place.
Taurus
Mercury is challenged in minor ways today, Taurus, and this generally points to nitpicky problems, delays, or miscommunications. However, with Venus and Jupiter coming to an alignment, your heart is in the right place, and your attitude is fabulous. Set out to deal with interrupted plans or disagreements with a spirit of forgiveness and cooperation. Loving Venus and expansive Jupiter come together in your partnership sector in two ways, influencing both today and tomorrow, and there can be a real drive to find happiness in a relationship or to improve a partnership. Expressing openness with, and appreciation of, the important person in your life can go a long way towards fulfillment. This can also be an excellent time for attracting a pleasant or helpful person into your life or for pairing up with someone to put a problem behind you or to further an important goal. There can be mutual benefits with others today. Expressing love, pleasure, warmth, and affection comes more naturally than usual, and you’re likely to find others are receptive and pleased with you now.
Gemini
Your ruling planet, Mercury, is challenged today, dear Gemini, and this can point to some indecision or chaotic schedules. However, a Venus-Jupiter alignment that influences today and tomorrow stimulates such good feelings that you’re unlikely to become stressed out over minor problems. You can be feeling quite motivated to do meaningful work or to make your work more meaningful to you. Helping others or being in service to others can be in focus. Be on the lookout for opportunities to improve or enjoy your daily life and health routines. You can feel joy with helping others, the services you provide, or your productivity. Meeting people through work or the pursuit of your health or daily routines can be in focus for some. There can be compliments or rewards for your skills and efforts now that fuel your motivation further. If you need help, gaining cooperation to complete chores or maintenance can be easy.
Cancer
Mercury’s minor stressful aspects today can lead to some tension, primarily due to misunderstandings or mixups, dear Cancer. However, a Venus-Jupiter alignment affecting today and tomorrow is excellent for morale. Opportunities to connect with someone special or to share good humor are with you. Sound energy is with you for expanding your personal horizons through creative endeavors. Love can be magical, and your powers of attraction are strong. You’re in good stead for friendships and dating, personal attraction, hobbies, entertainment, children, and your social life in general. Your confidence increases and you could be feeling exceptionally generous, with your heart, time, happiness, or money. You’re more understanding of others — and they of you!
Leo
There could be a disconnect experienced on a social level today or an irritating delay or change of plans, dear Leo. Avoid making snap decisions. Helping you out is a Venus-Jupiter alignment that influences both today and tomorrow, encouraging you to focus on the good things in your life. If you aim to look for abundance today, you’re likely to find it, particularly in your relationships with family and loved ones, or in the comforts of your home or inner circle. You might receive a gift (or give yourself one) that benefits the family or home. This is a time for emphasizing cooperation, trust, and faith. You can be feeling quite generous both materially and emotionally. Jupiter rules your creative and romantic sector, and this influence also boosts these affairs. This can also be an excellent time to clear space around the home, expand contact, strengthen ties, and find peace with the past.
Virgo
The Moon in your sign is invigorating today, Virgo. However, it can also mean you’re more sensitive than usual to some of the unexpected changes or miscommunications that are likely now. Fortunately, a lovely aspect occurs that means hearts are in the right places which can more than compensate for any mix-ups. With Venus and Jupiter coming together in your communications sector, look for opportunities to expand your knowledge, connections, or mental interests. Jupiter rules your home and family sector, so you might also enjoy improvements or extra warmth with these. Test results may come through or news you were waiting for arrives today and tomorrow. You could feel entirely inspired to pursue a line of study or make contact. There’s likely to be a warm reception for your ideas or output now, although Mercury and Uranus are stirring up a bit of controversy, and may delay the realization of what you’re trying to accomplish now. For some, there could be a creative project, speaking engagement, a publishing of your work, or even a romantic connection made. Success tends to come through word of mouth or bright ideas. Your good cheer and optimism can help strengthen close relationships.
Libra
The day can be strong for appreciation of recent blessings and your talents as well, dear Libra. While you may need to contend with mixed messages or disrupted schedules, a Venus-Jupiter alignment helps with the “mind over matter” attitude that’s sure to lead to good feelings. There can be a sense of abundance and fulfillment now. For some, this is about a stronger drive to enjoy individual freedoms or the fruits of your labor. There can be a gift or discovery of a resource that benefits you now. Enjoy some overview thinking concerning long-term goals and short-term issues in your life. This is a good time for getting an overall sense of your next step or next move. Look for opportunities to feel more comfortable and secure. There could be a significant gift or bonus, or you may simply be feeling generous, with others and yourself! Opportunities to make more money could emerge for some of you. Be open and generous with others today for best results.
Scorpio
While you’re likely to deal with miscommunications or some foggy thinking today, dear Scorpio, good feelings tend to override these small frustrations. This is an active time for sharing your feelings, happiness, art, talents, and joy as Venus in your sign highlights your lovable qualities and aligns with Jupiter, the planet of expansion. You are easy to be around and could be feeling especially confident about who you are and about dealing with life, in general. Sometimes Jupiter can expand feelings to the point of being overwhelmed, however, if you’re not feeling particularly satisfied with your life. If this is the case, it may be important to reach out to others for support or to focus on appreciating the things that you currently have. Romantic attention is very possible now and timing tends to be good. You would do well to put a past grudge behind you, as this is a good time for it. When it comes to your money and valuables, avoid a slapdash approach, as there can be a tendency to forget or overlook important details.
Sagittarius
Mercury is the maverick today, dear Sagittarius, and there can be some problems with directions, instructions, and delays. However, Venus aligns with your ruler, Jupiter, and this suggests hearts are in the right places. This alignment occurs in your sector of the past, endings, solitude, and privacy so that the past can pleasantly come into sharp focus. There could be freeing from a burden or unhealthy attachment, a surprise and fun escape from the everyday, or a feeling of forgiveness and understanding that helps you to feel far better about the future. This can come through a conversation or news, and perhaps even a chance meeting or experience from which you gain greater insight into a matter. There could be warm feelings about a private issue or a real desire to help others now. Some of you can benefit from synchronicity — something surfaces now, such as an unusual coincidence, that brings joy to your life.
Capricorn
While there can be some misunderstandings or snafus to deal with today, dear Capricorn, a Venus-Jupiter connection influencing today and tomorrow helps us rise above it all with a fun, happy outlook. This is one of the better times for connecting with friends, networks, peers, and groups, as well as for helping or sharing ideas with others. You might turn to others or new ideas for inspiration now, and you’re likely to find it. This is a time to detox from pressured situations and goals, and to make more time for sharing, connecting, and community. You’re feeding your soul and reminding yourself that happiness counts! Some of you enjoy new friendships or meet a love interest through a group, friend, or social networking. A lovely escape may be in the offing now. Don’t hide away at this time, but also be wary of overdoing your pursuit of pleasure or for taking on too many commitments.
Aquarius
There can be some minor tensions to deal with today, dear Aquarius, with Mercury in challenging minor aspect to Uranus, your modern planetary ruler. Interruptions to plans and schedules or a social disagreement are possible, but helping you put these aside is a Venus-Jupiter connection that influences today and tomorrow. This influence encourages long-term vision and expands feelings and pleasures related to career or reputation. Connecting and cooperating with others is the key to reward and success now. There can be a boost in popularity, or you may be feeling more confident or happy about where you’re headed in a general sense now. Making plans and setting goals is exciting now. Business connections can be helpful. This influence may very well open up doors on professional or public levels. People are enjoying and appreciating what you do. Romantic or friendly connections are particularly likely from public exposure or business affairs.
Pisces
Mental disconnects are possible today, dear Pisces, as Mercury is stressed by Uranus as well as the Moon in your opposite sign. A Venus-Jupiter alignment influencing today and tomorrow may not override these problems, but can certainly help improve spirits. Thinking and feeling in big terms can be rewarding now. Venus-Jupiter encourages activities that connect you with empowering ideas and experiences, as well as people who stimulate hope and optimism in you. You are likely to feel a little bolder about expressing your likes and loves or about pursuing your heart’s desire. Non-routine activities seem to be most appealing and beneficial now. A fun and healthy escape may be in the offing and can be a real refresher. Educational or travel plans may be part of the process of opening you up to new ways of thinking and living.

We could discover new information, hidden information, or a lost item. This is a time for recycling – seeing new uses for old items. True feelings come to the surface.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes
BALANCE OF SIGNS
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.
SAGITTARIUS STRONG
Inspiring, broad vision, enthusiastic, goal seeking, truthful, adventurous. Can be reckless, unrestrained, tactless.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
AIR WEAK
We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.
WATER STRONG
We are more compassionate, emotional, and intuitive than usual, and we may react emotionally to situations, possibly at the expense of logic or practicality.
BALANCE OF MODES
The modes are balanced.
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 12th:
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 the Moon 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 lifetime).
