There is a massive planetary pileup right at the beginning of Sagittarius this month, around November 23. Check it out: Pluto, Jupiter, the Sun, the Moon, Venus & Mars, as well Mercury are all in there for a little while. The most apt metaphor for a time like this involves a pulp protagonist out of fiction: our hero beating insurmountable odds to save the day.

ì Aries [3/23-4/20]: you can feel the momentum building as the south node of the Moon swings through your sign. The good news is that this is an indication that yourffate in life is destined to be much easier for a while. All the struggles are gradually fading away, and you should feel much better about yourself.

The Aries/Libra axis is important during this time because it seems like you are going head to head with just about every fixed obstacle you can find. Adopting a lighter attitude and throwing yourself into work will help„it will help a whole lot! You should be forging ahead, though, at work, and as Mercury goes direct on October , you will find that some obstacles seem to melt away.

£ Taurus [4/21-5/22]: there was a lot of emotional trauma stirred up in Taurus, close to a year ago. If you dealt with the problems which arose out that series of events (where were you last year at this time?) then you are ine shape to move on. In any case, it is okay to dwell on the past but donÍt make a home there. And your car trouble should be over by now.

Gemini [5/23-6/21]: I love you Gemini types: flighty, aberrant, event flakey, but always mentally active. Well, just hang on, because you air (flighty) is going to feed the fire which is raging on the opposite side of the zodiac. You might feel like youÍre dodging bulletsw these days when in fact, you are doing a dance. Just hang in there a little longer.

Cancer [6/22-7/22]: you home bound Cancer types are feeling some pressure for balance in your life, and the holidays are not a good time to affect anything resembling balance. Give it up for now. The next couple of weeks are difficult because there just doesnÍt seem to be enough time to get everything done. Some cold water fishing is also a good idea right now. You do know how to ice skate, donÍt you?

Leo [7/23-8/23]: with everthing thatÍs heating up for you fire signs in (all them planets in Sage), you should be feeling some singeing of your clothes as well. Get ready for what is going to be a particulalryl good month for, especially if you are interested in making some big changes in your life. Sort out yur directions, now. And remember Leo: party on!

Virgo [8/24-9/23]: every once in long time, isnÍt it nice to know that there isnÍt a whole lot of anything going on? I mean, besides work, and the new romance in your life, there isnÍt a whole of new stuff coming at you at a time like this. Try to sit the big holiday out. Right?

Libra [9/24-10/23]: itÍs a tough call for you tough guys, but from what IÍve seen in your chart, there seems to be a lot of travel going on at a time like this. What yo do with the beneficial energy that you are surely feeling by now is up to you. Your birthday was a big party, and now weÍre back to the start again. Enjoy the added momentum that stars are giving you.

Š Scorpio [10/24-11/23]: November hearld a month of subtle, and not so subtle change for everyone else. As a Scorpio, you should just relax, sit back, and rest easy knowng with absolute certanty that all of the torment, torutre and genreal malaaise in your sign is gone for now. Finally! Good news ahead.!

Sagittarius [11/24-12/21]: whump! Wham, wham, wham. Everything feels like you are getting beaten on the head, repeatedly. If you ever thought about having a steel plate inserted into your head, well, thereÍs never been a better time. ThereÍs a major lineÜup of planets in your sign, and this gives you great energy and foresight, and, if you were ever destined to win the lottery, nowÍs the time. Rather, though, I would look forward to some earthÜshattering changes.

Capricorn [12/22Ü1/20]: as the close of the year rapidly approaches, it is entrely approrpiate for a Capricorn such as yourself to reflect back on what the old year was like, and then look forward towards your new birthday and the new year coming up.

Aquarius [1/21-2/18]: while the month of November starts out with some tough stuff going on, it gets a whole lot better, and I mean a whole lot better, shortly before the big Turkey day. Whatever you planned for that day, be prepared to change your plans. Relax, the outcome is probably beneficial.

Pisces [2/19-3/22]: your poor, worn out Pisces: Saturn has been making a tremendous splash in your watery sign for last couple of years. The bad news is that Satrun always brings a hard dose of reality. The good news? Satrun is finally headed away from you now. Go forth and rejoice (like yu needed an excuse).
