Horoscopes
Aries
There can be a lot going on just under the surface of things today, dear Aries, that can interfere with clarity and purposefulness. Inner restlessness may be an issue as Mercury and Jupiter are forming a tense aspect, and there can be some truth-stretching or dramatic thinking and conversations. Avoid spending too much time deciding the best path but do keep in mind that what you hear may be exaggerated. There can be some irritability as there seem to be obstacles in the way of your plans, and this may be an indication that you need to slow down and think up a better or more realistic approach. You can sense that you don’t have all the info you need or that you’re in the dark on a particular matter, and it can eat away at you, but only if you let it! You could also be feeling somewhat drained or demotivated, but the pressures to perform and to get things done are just as high. The result can be inertia. Sorting things out will come easier tonight and tomorrow. For now, do your best to separate the wheat from the chaff with incoming information.
Taurus
You may be seeking out comfort or support from people in your life today, Taurus, but it may not be as full as you’d like. For one, signals easily get crossed, and misunderstandings are likely, and for another, there are expected to be plenty of distractions to sort through. And, even further, insecurities about being able to meet your goals may lead to uncomfortable situations or tension in your relationships. Watch for putting too much value into things that don’t deserve your attention, and overlooking details that are important! Something may be exaggerated now, so take what’s said with a grain of salt. Thoughts and feelings will level out soon enough. Decisions made under these conditions rarely work out for good. Once you pull yourself out of a stubborn mindset, you’ll find wonderful energy is with you for doing detective work, investigating, or uncovering information that you need tonight and tomorrow morning.
Gemini
There is a tendency to entertain very big ideas today, dear Gemini, and while this can be harmless fantasy, today’s energies are a little chaotic, and it can be difficult making straightforward decisions as a result. Because there is a tendency to blow things out of proportion right now, try not to count on promises made unless they stick beyond today. Stretching your mind to think up new possibilities without investing too much of yourself into these ideas can be a useful process. Try not to overthink the essential things, however, and avoid pushing your opinions too hard. If someone is (or you are) harping on the past, try to release some pressure to fill certain goals quickly. Try instead to focus on what you can do to move forward. Frustrations can be magnified, but as the day advances, you gain perspective.
Cancer
It can be difficult focusing on priorities until this evening, dear Cancer, and even then, you’re inclined to question your decisions. Avoid flip choices and try not to pressure yourself too hard to be on the ball. You may need some time to center yourself since information is inclined to be contradictory or missing. Tere can be tensions that can trigger arguments now, and self-righteousness might emerge but only serves to alienate further. Ambitions are good for you up to the point that they motivate you, but if you put so much pressure on yourself that you’re living with unrelenting stress, then you may need to make some adjustments. Aim to focus on improving things and don’t rush things that don’t honestly have a deadline.
Leo
There is a theme of exaggeration and drama today, dear Leo. It’s best not to invest too much into what’s communicated now, but it’s also important to watch what you’re committing to, since overestimation of time and energy is likely now. Aim to take your time coming to conclusions. You may be putting a lot of pressure on yourself in the first half of the day if you feel you’re behind on your goals, work, or health endeavors, which can result in tense interactions with others or possibly some cynical thoughts that chip away at your confidence. An event may force you to pay attention to something you typically would avoid, and you may have unusually strong feelings about it. There can be a triggering of buried feelings today. Treat it as a chance to rid yourself of old resentments.
Virgo
The day’s energies hold some nitpicky aspects that can serve as distractions, dear Virgo, and it may be best to avoid significant decision-making for now, as information is likely to come to light at a later date that changes your current perspective. This may come as soon as tomorrow, by the way. The tendency today is to imagine the extreme of a situation, good or bad, and it can be challenging to listen to your own voice of reason just for now. Take your time drawing meaningful conclusions. Relationships can be a little tense in the first half of the day, especially if pressures to succeed or push a plan forward are getting to you. Frustrations might also emerge if someone is attempting to call all the shots.
Libra
People around you may seem a little dramatic today, dear Libra, as we tend to see things either as far more wonderful or far more terrible than they are. You may come across the same way if you don’t watch for the tendency. We’re making a lot out of situations, so aim to take your time digesting everything you learn before basing decisions on your perceptions today. Plans might meet some resistance now, which can be frustrating but could also buy you time to make significant adjustments and edits. As the day advances, a Mercury-Jupiter influence encourages a broader look at your world, but it inclines us to exaggerate. However, stretching your mind may be a valuable exercise and can lead to some unusual but workable ideas and solutions to problems.
Scorpio
It can be difficult fully backing a decision, as there is a sense that something is exaggerated or magnified, good or bad today, dear Scorpio. This is due to both a Sun-Pluto and Mercury-Jupiter challenge. Part of you wants to get involved, and another would prefer to escape! Take your time coming to conclusions. Disagreements on core values or methods and heated discussions or tense interactions are possible, but it can be hard to put everything on the table and be straightforward now with all sorts of matter working just under the surface of things. You could be feeling on the defensive, but this might be the result of pressure to perform or meet a goal that is too out of reach at the moment. Avoid reading too much into others’ actions and words. Fortunately, as the day advances, we tend to loosen up.
Sagittarius
Typically, you are very able to inspire others and get them going, dear Sagittarius. Today, there is a sense that people around you are making impractical choices. In fact, you may be too close to a situation or influenced by pressure to see things clearly yourself — it’s merely the nature of the day, and it’s through no fault of your own. Try to quickly resolve conflicts that seem to be brewing over money, sharing, or values before they also blow out of proportion. Vague disappointments from your past or feelings of guilt have their way of creeping up on you now. Avoid exaggeration and the busy rumor mill. A good time to talk about personal matters arrives tonight and tomorrow, but do watch for a tendency to exaggerate this evening, or to bank on promises that are good-natured but may not be feasible.
Capricorn
Emotions are mostly steady today, Capricorn, and you’re emotionally geared towards practical activities. Even so, the energies of the day can, in fact, lead to impractical thinking, and even if you’re not participating, you’re bound to be dealing with it through others. There is a tendency for worries and concerns to become magnified, and you may want to watch for a tendency to see the best or the worst of a situation rather than merely seeing it for what it’s worth. Recent pressures may negatively impact your relationships, and misunderstandings or hurt feelings may result. Avoid trying to maneuver situations to work in a particular way, and try to be more flexible. However, you can quite readily change your mind and begin to see things far more positively as the day advances. Unusual ideas may seem inane early today, but as the day advances, refinements seem to make them very workable.
Aquarius
With the Moon in your sign all day, emotional urgency can prompt you to assert your needs, dear Aquarius, but you might want to find ways to self-soothe instead until later today and early tomorrow. Before then, it can be difficult to gain understanding. Life demands more from you, and you can feel pulled in many different directions. You’ll be required to do some juggling. Making mountains out of molehills is entirely possible now. Poor decision-making can be the result of exaggeration. Relationships can be temperamental as there are likely to be hidden agendas at play or information that is not yet known. Tension over past issues with performance or let-downs can be stimulated. Even so, you have a real knack for graceful maneuvering to get where you want to go. Be the voice of reason, as you so often are, if someone seems to be going overboard. Solutions to problems are unusual but useful.
Pisces
The Moon continues to transit your privacy sector all day, dear Pisces, and you’re inclined to lay low. You are learning how to use challenges and obstacles to your advantage, but there is a strong potential for tense power plays or a tendency to harp on the past right now. Ambitions may be high but can cause some tension until you sort out your thoughts. Talking things through is favored, but gaining someone’s full support is difficult for now. The tendency to make too much of a situation is a potential problem and trying to explain your way out of something is likely to be a waste of time. Misleading information abounds, so wait things out. By tomorrow, you’ll be in a great position to determine your next move or to drum up a plan related to life path, financial, or career goals.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes
BALANCE OF SIGNS
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.
AQUARIUS STRONG
Humanitarian, innovative, group conscious, progressive, serving others. Can be rebellious, eccentric, aloof, emotionally superficial, overly extroverted.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE STRONG
Fire is enthusiastic, dynamic, and spontaneous, but lacks reflection. We are more courageous and adventurous now, with a tendency to act before thinking. There is little concern about what happened in the past. We are competitive and possibly impatient or bored easily.
EARTH WEAK
There can be a lack of desire, interest, or skills regarding practical affairs. We may not be very much in touch with reality. Difficulties concentrating, grounding ourselves.
BALANCE OF MODES
The modes are balanced.
LUNAR PHASE: CRESCENT
Moon 45 to 90 degrees ahead of the Sun.
This is an eager, impulsive, and progressive time. We are motivated and ready to take on challenges.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EST) on November 24th:
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).
