Horoscopes
Aries
You’re once again in an excellent position to think up strategies for reaching your goals today, dear Aries. You quickly discover that sharing your ideas is most rewarding and productive if you give others’ opinions and ideas weight. The key to a stronger feeling of empowerment is to seek out ways to expand your knowledge. This will be particularly useful when Mercury and the Sun move to the top of your solar chart in the coming weeks. At that time, you’ll be able to apply the knowledge you gain now in the “real world” with great results. Try not to rush the learning process right now, however. Take advantage of your increased ability to truly absorb and learn. The Moon in your resources sector today points to a stronger interest in your money and talents.
Taurus
The Moon is in your sign all day, dear Taurus, and you’re prioritizing your emotional needs. You are especially noticeable, and you seek out emotional stimulation now. You’re also looking for acknowledgment of your feelings. Friendship, networking, sharing ideas, and learning are particularly excellent outlets for expressing yourself, and you tend to avoid or aim to escape responsibilities just for now, as your heart is not quite into them. This is temporary, of course, and what you avoid now you’ll need to face later. There is good energy for reasoning through a financial or complex emotional matter today. You do need to watch for a tendency to want the last word at all costs, however!
Gemini
There is a strong desire for peace-making today, dear Gemini. The Taurus Moon brings out a need to stay in the relative background. You are a little more sensitive than usual, and you may be treating others with greater care as a result, perhaps as a self-protective measure – this way, they are more likely to return the favor! As well, you feel a little more personally powerful if you get a handle on your relationships with Mercury and Juno joining in your partnership sector. Your negotiation skills are excellent, not only with partners but also with people you work with or whom you meet as you pursue your daily duties and routines.
Cancer
While the desire to harmonize with others is strong today, dear Cancer, you’re driven by a desire to be true to yourself and responsible to others, and you’ll avoid people-pleasing if it goes against either of these things today. Even though you tend to do so quietly, you enjoy breaking social barriers right now. Good counsel about work or health and habits is likely to be available today. You’re taking special pride in your work right now, and you’re also a little protective of your ideas. You can feel that you’d rather do things your way for fear that others may mess things up. However, try not to take on far more than your share as a result.
Leo
You can be feeling particularly protective or possessive of a romantic partner or creative work right now, dear Leo, but you’ll find that talking or reasoning things through can help you relax this tendency enough to enjoy yourself more thoroughly. Even so, this can motivate you to push a little harder, and you may appreciate this now. The Moon is in your career and reputation sector all day and will reach Full in this sector of your solar chart tomorrow morning. It’s an excellent time for recognizing your need to perform, to best yourself in some significant manner, and to feel useful and relevant on a professional level.
Virgo
There can be some power plays or fears to address on the domestic front now, dear Virgo, but it’s a great time to do so. Reasoning through problems gives you a strong feeling of being in better control of your life, and family can be the subject or the participants! When it comes to personal concerns and domestic matters, you are an especially effective communicator these days. You have a way of bringing others together, and their cooperation means a lot to you. Today’s Taurus Moon prompts you to look for a little more than the usual routine. There can be traveling or venturing out and about. Tomorrow, the Moon is full, and you may be bursting at the seams wanting to share a project or your ideas.
Libra
You can be particularly excited about your ideas or a project today, dear Libra, and perhaps a little possessive of them, preferring to keep them your own. Protect what’s yours, but try not to worry yourself sick in the process! Releasing a little control over something can be empowering, as much as you might feel otherwise at the moment. Personal power increases as you let go of things that are, in fact, controlling you. Today’s Taurus Moon encourages you to focus on ways to transform a stagnant situation into a thriving one. The Full Moon tomorrow morning is also quite wonderful for releasing a fear or letting go of an unhealthy attachment.
Scorpio
There is a strong focus on relationships and achieving a better sense of balance in your life today and tomorrow, dear Scorpio. Your need for others is quite evident now and is set to grow as the Moon moves to Full in your partnership sector, exact tomorrow morning. This can be a time of seeing something you’ve overlooked, and this can include your own emotions and feelings for someone. While your social life is an important theme now, a focus on money, talents, and resources is a healthy, helpful one. In fact, getting a handle on your practical affairs can be empowering. It’s a great time for learning new things about how to manage your money or develop your talents.
Sagittarius
You are in an excellent position to learn something valuable and empowering today and tomorrow, dear Sagittarius. You have a way of connecting with others and making all parties concerned feel good about the connection. You have a powerful presence right now, and your ideas are real gems. You can be somewhat of a loner these days when it comes to getting to final decisions, but you absorb everything around you and listen to others quite well — you simply prefer to make the decision or choice that counts. However, it’s important not to put all of the pressure on yourself, as this can eventually wear you down. The Full Moon tomorrow morning brings a work or health matter to light, and today, you’re likely to feel uncomfortable if you’ve let either of these things go. Don’t despair, however, as you’ll be in an excellent position to make improvements, edits, and adjustments that get you back on track.
Capricorn
Today can be quite excellent for quickly sizing up situations and seeing the rhyme and reason behind what you used to feel were odd behaviors of others in your life, dear Capricorn. You might also consider reasoning through nagging problems or issues from your past that keep re-emerging in your consciousness, even when you least expect them. You can gain a stronger sense of being in control of your life as you work out why things have happened and especially why they’re still relevant to you. Good energy is with you for resolving problems and for self-understanding. Despite this serious theme, the Moon transits your romance and creativity sector all day, encouraging you to enjoy yourself more thoroughly, particularly through leisure activities and other pleasures. The Full Moon tomorrow morning can act as a further prompt to follow your heart.
Aquarius
Attention to home and family matters is vital today and even more so tomorrow, dear Aquarius, with the Moon in your solar fourth house today, reaching Full tomorrow. Alternatively, revelations and epiphanies are about your emotional needs, which assume tremendous importance now. If you’ve been ignoring these needs recently, you’ll receive the strong message now that you need to pay more attention! With a solid base, all other areas of life benefit. Today is potentially excellent for enjoying supportive, helpful conversations with friends or about long-term goals, however. Teaming up with others can be rewarding and even empowering.
Pisces
There is quite a bit of “busyness” to your day, dear Pisces, and perhaps a flurry of activity tomorrow as something reaches a head, a deadline looms, or a revelation happens with the Full Moon. You stand to learn a lot, although you may be a little too scattered to process everything at once. Take time to digest and process before jumping to final conclusions. Your ambition is stimulated today, and you may learn new information that helps give you an edge over competitors. It may be wise to guard information for the time being, at least until you know all the details. There can be feelings stimulated now that motivate you to pursue your goals more passionately.

We are looking to attach value and meaning to our goals. This is a time for analyzing, questioning, perfecting, and improving.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on November 13th:
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 lifetime).
