Horoscopes
Aries
Business strategy can thrive today. Plans can be drawn – very effective ones – and problems can be solved. Intimate matters can also benefit from further thought. Your ruler moves into your professional and public sector today, where it will stay until December 4th. This is one of the most ambitious periods of your year. You can really fly on a professional level, and motivation is strong to get things done, to perform, and to accomplish. Structuring your time will be key, but you will also benefit greatly from toughening up in some way. Sometimes, being a tad dispassionate can help you to get over certain humps and take care of business. It’s not the time to cower or to hide your light under a bushel. Even so, try not to stir up unnecessary controversy right now. It could come back to you in more challenging ways than you expect.
Taurus
Mars moving into an Earth sign and harmonizing with your own sign today supports you energetically, until the 4th of December. You seem to need this extra boost of energy, dash of independence, and outgoing push right now, as you’ve been tending to other people’s needs far more often than your own these days. Good energy is with you for turning the corner in a family relationship – moving forward, healing, and enjoying the moment again. You have more courage, or it may be more about having more access to your courage, and you’re letting go of some of your inhibitions. You can also be holding onto your ideas and beliefs very strongly, and there can be conflicts arising from differences of opinion. Today is very strong for problem solving that gets results in a partnership.
Gemini
With Mars now in your intimacy sector until the 4th of December, you’re more strategic in your approach to the world. Instead of directly pursuing your desires, you tend to formulate strategies. Your desires themselves may be more complex or complicated. There is more attention now to your deeper desires and needs, spiritual regeneration, intimacy and sharing, power and how you share power with others, and your support systems. If there have been problems brewing in these areas of your life, then Mars here will aggravate them, not just to cause a fuss, but so that you can do something to balance the scales. Don’t allow issues of control and power, or jealousies and resentment, eat you alive. Use this time for being as honest as you can with yourself. Today brings freer interactions with a partner, and powerful energy for problem solving in the areas of work and health.
Cancer
Mars moving into your opposite sign today (until December 4th) can have the effect of lowering your energy, dear Cancer, as there can be heavier demands on you from other people. However, it’s a time for really getting somewhere in your close relationships. This is a time for correcting injustices and clearing the air. There can be frustration experienced if you feel that other people seem to have the upper hand in your life, or seem to be taking the lead. You may need to draw some boundaries. Today is very strong for creative pursuits of all kinds. Your sense of harmony and balance is powerful. There is also lucky energy with you for money matters.
Leo
From now until December 4th, it will benefit you greatly to be more detail-oriented, structured, and disciplined. You are more industrious, have increased energy for applying to your work or daily routines, and can feel quite motivated to pick up or step up a health and wellness program. Performance is more important to you during this cycle, but it’s also vital to balance this drive with awareness of your limitations and need for rest. You don’t want to become so absorbed in details that you lose sight of the broader goal. Just as you shouldn’t demand too much of yourself, try not to expect others to match your pace. Today is good for problem solving around the home and with family or personal matters, and it’s also strong for bringing more beauty and balance to your domestic world.
Virgo
Mars moving into harmony with your Sun sign (today until December 4th) is a supportive, helpful aspect. Generally speaking, it means you are freer to move about and pursue your desires without too much in the way of interference or resistance. The major difficulty associated with this position involves looking too hard for, or being too dependent on, validation from others. If you keep this under control, you’ll be in a better position to experience its benefits. You are more courageous with your creativity, and also when it comes to love and affection. You put more energy into pleasure, play, and pastimes. Today, a good deed from the past can benefit you. There is excellent energy for solving problems, particularly mechanical and learning/schooling ones. There is a lot of wisdom in what you have to say. It’s a great day for smoothing over differences.
Libra
This is a strong day for group connections, networking, and friendships. There can be a turning point, a freeing from a restriction, and a positive frame of mind. Good energy is also with you for problem solving with business, financial, and practical affairs. Mars begins its transit of your solar fourth house today, where it will transit until December 4th. There can be a lot of energy in your personal life during this period. As long as this extra energy is channeled well, it can be a great time for moving forward home projects, and for activities with family. This is a “cleaning house” influence, and can work both literally and figuratively. You’ll need to watch for too much defensiveness at this time. Your instincts to protect are activated powerfully during this transit.
Scorpio
This is your time to shine! You’re receiving a lot of attention, and on a professional level, you’re seen in an especially good light today. You may be turned to for advice, and people are very much on board with your ideas. Mars begins its transit of your solar third house today, and will continue to affect this area of your chart until December 4th. There is increased energy and activity surrounding communications, transportation, siblings, your neighborhood, and learning. You are more spontaneous when it comes to speaking your mind and communicating in general. You could be especially motivated to learn, explore your mental interests, and make connections. Watch for impatience with manual and mechanical tasks, and for pushing your ideas too hard.
Sagittarius
The Moon moves into your sign and your emotions come out of hiding today. Even so, there is still quite a bit going on behind the scenes. There is strong healing energy accessible today surrounding family affairs. There can be a good feeling derived from a sense of shared or respected belief systems. Mars moves out of your sign today, taking some of the pressure off. It is now transiting your finance and values sector until December 4th. Your focus shifts from asserting your desires to building your resources. You’re not inclined to stir up trouble, preferring to keep the peace during this cycle, but if you feel disrespected or pushed around, you are especially ready to defend your turf. This is a good time to really work on your self-esteem if this has been a troublesome area. You can be impulsive with money, but many of you could also be more motivated to earn.
Capricorn
Mars moves into your sign today after several weeks of sweeping through your privacy sector and stirring up all sorts of buried matter. This transit, lasting until December 4th, stimulates your more dynamic side. You are especially passionate, desirous, and excitable. You can accomplish far more than usual, as long as you focus your energy. One of the reasons you can be more effective now is that you are much clearer about what it is you want. Confidence builds upon self-control and direction. Act rather than react. Today is excellent for building rapport with friends and group connections. It’s also powerful for talking through tricky areas and topics, such as balance of power.
Aquarius
Mars begins its transit of your solar twelfth house today, where this planet of action will stay until December 4th. You’re likely to be especially active researching, weighing pros and cons, and dealing with private matters. You could be working on a plan to get rid of limiting, difficult, or stagnant connections, attitudes, and goals that have been clogging up your life. This could relate to something that began in December 2012. This is a good period for you to clear up problem areas, but not necessarily the best time for new initiatives. Today is powerful for a partnership matter and possibly a financial agreement. There is also strong energy available for new creative approaches to a work project.
Pisces
Good energy is with you for being seen in a good light in the work you do, and for creative problem solving as well. You are better able to help people understand your point of view today. Mars enters your solar eleventh house today, where it will transit until December 4th. This is a pleasing transit that subtly lifts your hopes, and possibly even lifts some obstacles for reaching your goals. There could be the need to network, work with a team, or collaborate during this period. You are especially good at structuring and organizing projects and groups/group work. Some of you could be motivated to push for an important cause. Involvement with friends can be energizing at times, and draining at other times if you don’t set limits.
