November will be infinitely better than October, because last month you had to deal with your ruler, Mercury, retrograde until October 9, and a new moon last month that was fierce and not very nice. This made last month a tense month, where things kept surfacing that made you deal with things suddenly. By contrast, November will be sweet as sugar in the first half of the month, but as you get to the third week, we will have Saturn acting up, and I will show you where and how to deal with him so he won't cause dismay to you.

Let's start with November 2-3 when Venus will be conjunct Mars, a rare aspect, to light your home sector. This would be a wonderful day to look for things to add to your home or to look at new spaces, such as a new house or condo, or to browse shops that have model kitchens and baths, to help you create one that a contractor will fulfill. November 2 and 3 would also be a perfect time to have friends over after work, for any reason. You will effortlessly show off your entertaining skills, and everyone will have a fun time.

If you are single and your family mentions that there is someone you should meet, give that idea a try on either November 2 or 3. Believe it or not, this time your family member really does have a good idea of whom you would like to meet. If you are attached, cook up a gorgeous dinner for the love of your life as a surprise, and make it romantic with candlelight and flowers.

On November 5, you may have a chance to raise your income by doing a side project, or if you are self-employed, through new business that may come as a phone call from a client that wants you (and you alone) to do the assignment. A VIP will look kindly upon you, so it's an ideal day to meet.

You have a string of fine days, for on November 6, Mercury, your ruling planet, will receive a supremely lovely beam from Neptune and set your imagination in motion. Also on this day, transiting moon in Virgo will conjunct Jupiter, making this an exciting day for letting your creativity and vision take flight. If you write novels or screenplays, this is a day you must sit down and use your talents to create great work.

On November 10 you will have another standout day, when the Sun and Jupiter will work together in a way that denotes great opportunity. This could be one of the happiest days of the year, and a superb day to meet with an influential person. Jupiter is in your home sector, suggesting you should have a well-appointed home office to do projects either all the time or when you want to concentrate without distractions of others coming by your desk to chat. (These days, substantial money will come through your home or other property you may own.)

A most important day will be November 11, the new moon in Scorpio at 19 degrees, that will light your house of workaday assignments and personnel you work with or that report to you. This is one of the very finest new moons of the year, because generous planet of good fortune Jupiter will be very active, and will help you generate new assignments. Pluto will be friendly too and also present you with a fine time to hire people who will report to you, at work or at home. You will be busy, but as a Gemini, you are such a talented multi-tasker that you can do more in a day than most people do in a week.

This same new moon may be one of the finest points of the year to discuss a health concern with your doctor, for in the coming days and weeks, you can find ways to heal and rejuvenate. Jupiter is known to be the great planet of good fortune, happiness, and expansion, but you may not know Jupiter is the great healer too. Sometimes Jupiter has been known to bring a miracle. By all means, see your doctor on this new moon, November 11, or quickly in the days that follow. If you need a second opinion, go to get one. Do your homework by investigating the right specialist for you, and you will set Jupiter and Pluto in motion and get them both to work on your behalf.

When Neptune goes direct on November 18, after being retrograde since June, you will see your career begin to show impressive progress. In fact, you may see things move on fast-forward. Neptune rules your solar tenth house of honors, awards, and achievement, so if you feel you've been working hard, but not seeing enough progress considering the quality of your performance, hold on to your hat. Things will move after November 18.

The full moon in Gemini 3 degrees might mark a difficult part of the month. Saturn will collide with this full moon, adding a very serious note to this week. By November 29, the Sun will conjoin Saturn, too, another aspect that tends to deflate confidence, often when someone whose opinion you trust may make a critical comment. This week would not be a good time to launch a new product or service, or to give a lecture or other speculative event where you hope to sell tickets and make a profit.

With Saturn leaving his fingerprints all over this full moon, you might be tempted to take on too many tasks, and feeling tired or overwhelmed, will take everything going on around you to heart, and perhaps become deflated and unnecessarily pessimistic. November 25 will fall on the day before the Thanksgiving Day holiday in the US, so if you are doing all the cooking, ask for help. It will be easy to overdo at this time. No matter where you live in the world (and are not likely to be celebrating any family holiday), this full moon is likely to make you emotionally overwrought from having too much going on around you. Like the Britney Spears song, many will want to take a piece of you. Get enough rest at this time, and your spirit will stay strong.

In love, you'll be a standout in November. Libra rules your fifth house of true love, and on November 8, Venus will enter Libra to stay until December 5. Just a few days later, Mars will enter Libra, too, and reside in the very same part of your chart from November 12 to January 3. Venus and Mars are called the cosmic lovers, for they long to be together, but often cannot be, due to assignments given them by the universe that forceÿthem to be in different constellations. Now they will be together and moving in the perfect part of your chart to help you find the kind of loving relationship you've long hoped to find. Venus and Mars will not be conjunct in Libra this month, but both will be in the same house of true love, and once there, will spread silvery pixie dust all over to get you in the mood for love. Forÿthe first time in a long time,ÿyou have a solid chance to find romance with a person who is right for you, and who will be the person to stay your life a very long time. You need to do your part by finding the time toÿcirculateÿat social events, for it would be aÿshame to stay home with such loving planets standing by to help you. Happily, the festive holidayÿseason is starting to shape up, and you are likely to get a number of invitations to come out and celebrate and to make the acquaintance of many new people, one of whom may turn out to be very special to you.

On November 13, Venus will be in divine agreement with Saturn, the planet of long-term thinking, linking your house of love and marriage. You might have a tender conversation with the person you love and are dating seriously, with a plan to get engaged for Christmas (or if you don't celebrate Christmas, another religious or family holiday), or on New Year's Eve. Any and all of these dates would be heavenly, so if you are ready, proceed.

As the month opens, your personal life is taking precedence, with much attention on home, family, and your living space or other property you may own. You may have made progress last month on goals involving home and property, but if not, concentrate on this area during the first ten days of November. If you have design choices, or important home-related purchases to make, or want to give a party at home, do so on November 1 or 2. (October 31, Halloween, was also a favorable time to invite friends over). Venus and Mars, together at last, will add a touch of romance, beauty, and elegance to all you do in your living place.

All month, Mercury, your ruler will be busy meeting with other planets, almost always in a favorable way. On November 6, Mercury meets with Neptune and will spark creativity in you. On November 10, Mercury will interact with Pluto and bring on positive talks about money. A very special day will be November 13, when Mercury will meet with good fortune Jupiter, and decisions about home and family will go better than expected. It would be an ideal day to choose a contractor, sell property, or bid or close on a house. November 24 brings a serious discussion, decision, or promise. Alternatively, it would be an ideal day to sign a contract because Mercury, your ruler, will receive golden beams from Jupiter.

November 25 brings an opportunity to take action on a weighty decision, but with Saturn pressing hard, if you have too much to do, or are criticized by someone whose opinion counts, don't let it make you lose confidence. You will be in top form again within four days, so keep the faith. In the meantime get enough rest, for being tired will only magnify your worries unnecessarily.

The sweet new moon of November 11 will bring an opportunity to pick up a new client or assignment, most likely in the communications arena. With Saturn active, it appears the workload will be strenuous later in the month, so pace yourself. The upside to the assignment is it will be interesting and the pay you receive very generous. Also at this time, you will have the time and the impetus to address any possible health concern with your doctor. This new moon and the Sun will be in ideal angle to Jupiter, suggesting that you can find relief or even healing if you see the right specialist in days that closely follow the new moon.

Life won't be all work and no play, for Mars is about to light your fifth house of true love from November 12 to January 3. This is great news if you are single; for the first time in a long time, you will have a solid opportunity to meet someone new and someone you can actually imagine bringing home to meet mom and dad. If you are attached, the plan to have a child may come up for discussion in weeks to come, and it is an ideal time to get serious about that goal.

If you are attached, the full moon in Gemini, November 25, might bring some conflict or concern about your partner and make you more emotional than usual. Your partner's health or well-being may be your focus (in love or business), or in a more trying manifestation, you may find getting along together to be difficult. Things may reach a peak impasse on the day the Sun receives a conjunction from Saturn on November 29 - a tough meeting of fire and ice. Most people will feel fragile on this day, so take good care of yourself and get enough sleep.

Neptune will move direct on November 18 after being retrograde since June 17. This will have a positive and lively effect on your career, so watch the news you receive in the days that circle November 18 - you will see clues of what is to come.

Neptune will disagree with Saturn three times within several months, on November 25, and next year, on July 17 and September 10, 2016. With Neptune giving you vision and creativity in your career in coming years - this planet is not leaving anytime soon, not until 2026 - Saturn will urge you to be realistic in the way you view your career and the projects you work on. If you have an agent, manager, or business partner, you need to find a way to blend energies in a smooth way this month, and dance with one another without stepping on each other's toes. If you don't, you may lock horns.

Romantically things are looking up. Mars, the great energizer, will enter your true love sector on November 12, joining Venus, already there, as of November 8. Even if you feel you're never lucky in love, you may change your mind now. It's been years since you have had these two cosmic lovers in your loving fifth house - the place in your chart that sets off the pretty firework sparks of love. You have a solid chance to meet someone intriguing, but you will have to make an effort, by looking your most attractive, magnetic, and charismatic, and by being open to many types. Let go of preconceived notions about what your ideal partner would be like.

On the full moon, November 25, you may have a concern over an important male in your life - your father, favorite uncle, husband, boss, or other person close to you. If you plan to cook, don't take on too much of the obligation - so ask for help. You may need to be available to others at the last minute at work, too, so keep your cell phone powered up (as annoying as that might sound). Be glad to be so needed!
