The Stars This Week: November 19-25, 2012



Take Your Time!

Things are not as they seem this week, so make sure you take things slowly on November 21 when the Sun enters Sagittarius and squares Neptune. On that same day, if you're looking for a soul mate, keep your eyes open as Venus enters passionate Scorpio! Then, take advantage of available help in a challenging environment when Mars makes two important aspects on consecutive days, squaring Uranus on November 23 and sextilingSaturn on November 24.


November 21: The Sun enters Sagittarius and squares Neptune
Do you feel as if you're driving in heavy fog with all your familiar landmarks obscured? The Sun meets nebulous Neptune immediately after entering Sagittarius, the sign of the traveler, and as ready as you may be to look at the road ahead, difficult conditions aren't making it easy! Still, you have dreams you want to achieve, and you will be able to make progress. Forward movement right now is gained by tuning into your innermost thoughts and the whispers emanating from your soul. Logic won't be helpful now; instead, be imaginative and visionary.

November 21: Venus enters Scorpio
As Venus, the love planet, leaves social Libra to enter the deep waters of passionate Scorpio, light and casual conversations just won't interest you. Leave the commitment-phobic people behind -- you're now ready to connect on a more soulful level. If you're single and want to meet the love of your life, look for those who are excited, energized and dedicated to something other than themselves, whether it's their work, their studies or a cause. Already in a relationship? Take advantage of this transit to connect on a deeper plane.

November 23: Mars squares Uranus
November 24: Mars sextiles Saturn
You've been holding on, waiting and mulling things over. Now, as Mars connects to the Uranus-Pluto square (Mars conjuncts Pluto next week), the energy ramps up and you're ready to act! As important as it is to break free from conditions and people who aren't good for you, make sure you don't act too impulsively. And since Mars also sextiles authoritative Saturn now, opportunities indeed exist ... but you'll need to notice them to take full advantage.
