The November 11 Scorpio new moon spotlights your communication house, bringing exciting news, an a-ha moment or a page-turning conversation. If you&amp;#039;re working on a writing, multimedia or teaching project, this is a great occasion to plant seeds that will blossom over the next six months. You could also initiate an important dialogue with a colleague or loved one, making strides toward keeping the communication channels open and direct. No more guessing games\u2014it\u2019s time to get everyone aligned today. A breakout moment for you arrives on November 2 when charismatic Mars and seductive Venus unite in Virgo, a rare conjunction that takes places in your first house of self and identity. This is like the cosmic genie granting you wishes for a day, so put your solo projects front and center. What do YOU really want\u2014to start your own business, spearhead a work project or just indulge your desires more? Going after your goals will be pleasurable and enlivening under this cosmic alliance. You\u2019ll have people eating out of your hand today, so work this planetary mojo to your advantage! Bold Mars adds a splash of assertiveness, so feel free to self-promote; the playful Venusian allure helps you employ a graceful touch when pushing your agenda. The (pleasingly) squeaky wheel gest the oil!  On November 22, the Sun enters Sagittarius and your fourth house of home and family, turning your attention toward Chateau Virgo and your loved ones. For the next four weeks, you&amp;#039;ll feel like keeping holiday celebrations closer to home, maybe hosting a cozy Yuletide gathering or making the rounds of small house parties instead of buzzy, boozy big events. You&amp;#039;ll be extra sensitive during this period\u2014and sentimental about your closest bonds, especially those that have stood the test of time. You may also need a boost in the self-care department, so nurture yourself amidst all the holiday hoopla. Before you rush off to save the day for anyone, check in with yourself: Do you have the emotional energy to go there? Let\u2019s be real: \u2018Tis always the season of giving when you\u2019re a Virgo, so no need to go overboard. Save some of that generosity for yourself.  The month could end with a career coup, so don\u2019t get too comfortable in those giant furry slippers. The November 25 Gemini full moon shines its light on your ambitious tenth house, pulling you out of nesting mode for a professional win. Around this day, you could hear news of a long-awaited promotion or new job. You may get a leadership opportunity\u2014a bump up in stature that could also translate to a boost in pay. Over the last six months, you&amp;#039;ve been working diligently toward a professional goal\u2014and now it&amp;#039;s coming to fruition. This day may mark a different type of turning point, too; perhaps you realize that your current path isn&amp;#039;t exciting and you make a commitment to explore another avenue entirely. With dualistic Gemini ruling this sector of your chart, you may even be adept at managing two professions or embracing the \u201Cmultihyphenate\u201D label and pursuing several passions at once. Follow your inspiration\u2026and the energy to reach your goals will surely follow.   LOVE &amp;amp;amp; ROMANCE:  Step into the sexy spotlight, Virgo! Early in the month especially, you&amp;#039;re attracting admirers in droves\u2014thanks to red-hot Mars visiting Virgo until November 12 and alluring Venus providing a softer touch here through November 8. Having the cosmic lovers in your sign\u2014ruling your first house of personal passion and self\u2014is quite the lucky boon for romance. Whether coupled or single, you have just the right balance of assertiveness and receptive charm. For example, if you&amp;#039;ve been putting your own needs on the backburner in a relationship or in life (thus preventing you from being ready for love), you can now spell out what you truly desire and take action\u2014in the most seductive and sensual way.  One huge day for amour arrives on November 2, when love-planets Mars and Venus unite in an exact conjunction\u2014in Virgo!\u2014the third and final of such trysts in 2015. You\u2019ll be irresistible and on fire today, so give in to the passionate wave and make pleasure a top priority. It\u2019s rare that these two planets meet, and even more unusual for them to line up in YOUR sign. The surge of confidence could inspire you to flirt or talk to someone you normally wouldn\u2019t. Step out of character and leave insecurity behind. And above all, revel in the sacredness of your own life. This beautiful post by Virgo Kitty Cavalier (http://kittycavalier.com/how-did-the-rose-ever-open-its-heart) sums up the poignant, present energy that you could feel today. Midmonth, your desire for sizzle gives way to a penchant for steadiness, as lovely Venus enters Libra, your second house of stability, from November 8-December 4, joined by results-oriented Mars on November 12 for the rest of the year. After an exciting start to the month, you&amp;#039;re ready to get &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; in relationships. Yes, feverish liplocks in the stairwell are awesome, but now you want to know: Can your love interest pull his/her weight? You need a rock now, not (necessarily) a rock star. Trade the non-committal or starving artist types for dependable suitors who call when they say they will. Then again, maybe it\u2019s not so cut-and-dry, as this executive recruiter realized when her perfect lover just so happened to also be chronically unemployed (http://nymag.com/thecut/2015/10/executive-recruiter-with-an-unemployed-lover.html), forcing her to reckon with her own values.  Coupled Virgos could spend more time thinking about the practical aspects of their relationship, untangling knots about how you deal with money and/or conflict. If you&amp;#039;re nervous to talk tangibles, these tips (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jamesnichols/love-money-the-money-talk_b_6674626.html) may help you get started. Since the second house also rules luxury, you&amp;#039;ll want to be solid enough to splurge on a fancy date every now and then. You could indulge in a sensual, posh evening like this one (https://www.newyorkvintners.com/class/savor-your-senses) which pairs fine dining and excellent wine with classical music. Or if that\u2019s too stuffy for your taste, get a coveted reservation for a rising star chef\u2019s table or tickets to see an on-the-verge-of-discovery band in a small venue\u2026something that shows off your sign\u2019s unparalleled flair for culture. Have you been unsure where your love life is heading? Clarity reigns supreme in love, thanks to foggy Neptune&amp;#039;s November 18 direct (forward) turn after a five-month retrograde (backward) spin in Pisces, your seventh house of commitment. During this period, you may have had your doubts about your partnership (or what you even wanted out of partnership, if single). Perhaps you were both longing for love and simultaneously repelling it. It&amp;#039;s possible you were suspicious about your S.O.&amp;#039;s real motivations, and with deceptive Neptune in the mix, you may not have been totally off the mark. But likely, you couldn&amp;#039;t act, or didn&amp;#039;t. Now you can start to see this situation for what it really is\u2014especially if your fears got the best of you. You may have seen some deep-seated phobias pop up, wondering whether or not your mate was cheating. (Maybe the summer\u2019s Ashley Madison hack http://www.thestranger.com/blogs/slog/2015/08/28/22776166/savage-love-letters-of-the-day-end-of-week-ashley-madison-letter-dump) even played into this. By worrying (your specialty), you may have even convinced yourself that you were the helpless victim.  Now that the planet of illusions is turning direct, take steps to ground your union in facts, not fears. First of all, you always have choices, Virgo. And you definitely deserve to be with someone who is your equal in every way\u2026no more trying to &amp;quot;save&amp;quot; your partner. Single Virgos may also confront their own martyr complexes head-on\u2014if you&amp;#039;re not truly empowered, how do you expect to attract a worthy partner? Nix your codependent tendencies, stat. Instead of trying to control a situation\u2014or getting overly fixated on the outcome\u2014invite a sense of spirituality into your union, or how you view relationships. Surely, there are always lessons to be learned. Coupled Virgos may pick up a yoga or meditation practice with their partner. (Check out this link https://www.mindfulcouples.com/2012/09/27/couple-meditation/ for how to relax in tandem.) Solo Virgos may incorporate mystical elements into their ideal vision of love, or even make a vision board\u2014as cliched as it may sound, Neptune is all about the Law of Attraction.  You&amp;#039;re not totally out of the swamp, though. On November 26, confusing Neptune forms a tricky square to serious Saturn in Sagittarius, your sensitive fourth house. If you&amp;#039;re hemming and hawing over whether or not to bring that special someone home for the holidays, you could encounter some serious resistance. You may not even know why, when things have been going so well. It&amp;#039;s possible that you fear your own happiness, but it&amp;#039;s also likely that you&amp;#039;re not ready to leave the love bubble for the reality of a family gathering. It&amp;#039;s all amorous fun and games until your love meets your crazy aunt Sheila or your dysfunctional parents. (Hello, libido-killer.) Think twice before hosting family at your shared pad, too, because they could stir up major tension between you. (No need to bicker over the artichoke dip recipe.) Solo Virgos might be feeling those holiday blues, fantasizing that everyone is happily coupled and cozy by the fire except you. Remind yourself\u2014before you fall too far down the self-pity rabbit hole\u2014that it\u2019s simply not true. Everyone has their issues, and YOU are wholly loved and complete, with or without a date for Thanksgiving.   MONEY &amp;amp;amp; CAREER:  Express yourself! The November 2 alignment of charming Venus and go-getter Mars in Virgo, your first house of self and identity, gives you added courage to stand up for your ideas and beliefs. Yes, even discussing a work project can feel personal\u2014so work your passionate feelings to your advantage. In meetings, brainstorming sessions and networking events, speak from the heart. You&amp;#039;ve been handed the proverbial microphone, so squash any self-criticism and start talking about the causes and ideas that most light your fire. These powers of persuasion can result in miraculous connections\u2014perhaps inspiring a restructure of your department if you work in a team atmosphere, or maybe even a deal for a new venture. Just make sure you&amp;#039;ve done your homework and have the facts to back up your swagger. You never know who&amp;#039;s listening!  Get ready for some revved-up money mojo in the second half of the month. From November 12-January 3, energetic Mars is in Libra, your second house of earned income. Time to roll up your sleeves and get busy. When it comes to finances, it behooves you to take a grounded, methodical approach. You&amp;#039;ll be revved up to make some moolah, especially if you&amp;#039;re in debt. You can take great pride in your own self-sufficiency, so start researching IRAs and other ways to sock away the cash. Warning: With stress-inducing Mars here, you could receive an unexpected bill or some other expense that strains your spending plans. Don\u2019t get mad, get to work! Go after that year-end bonus or sale\u2014just because everyone else is hobnobbing around the eggnog bowl doesn&amp;#039;t mean you can&amp;#039;t make some shrewd moves. Beware the holiday spending sprees and keep your indulgences in check. (If it glitters, you might need to put your wallet away\u2014far away.) Remember that you don\u2019t have to celebrate the season with a shopping cart full of material objects. &amp;quot;Budget&amp;quot; needs to be an operative word in heavy rotation right now!  For the first three weeks of the month, you&amp;#039;re on inspirational fire, as the Sun moves through Scorpio, your third house of ideas and communication, until November 22. Is there someone you need to convince of a project&amp;#039;s brilliance, like a higher-up or investor? Do your homework, and then impress your colleagues with a witty, high-minded pitch. No one can top you when it comes to intellectual prowess, Virgo\u2014especially at the November 11 new moon in Scorpio, which brings a fresh start to a new, stimulating endeavor. This is an excellent day to start a new venture rooted in a unique concept or schedule an epic brainstorming session. Seeds planted today will blossom over the next six months, so get the ball rolling. Spend your energy on projects that invigorate you. On November 18, you could start to see the forest for the trees in a certain business partnership, thanks to confusing Neptune making a forward (direct) turn in Pisces, your seventh house of one-on-one relationships. Since June 12, you may have been seriously questioning whether or not you and a colleague or collaborator are a good match. Your differences may have gotten in the way of your original objective, or maybe you started to suspect the other party of nefarious activity. It&amp;#039;s possible that you were being paranoid, and if that&amp;#039;s the case, you can now ask the questions you need to ask, laying your concerns out on the table, and moving forward one way or the other. Or, if they have been hiding something, that may come to light, too. Knowledge is power, as they say, so if you choose to end a partnership, do so with confidence and keep all interactions grounded in mutual respect. This planetary influence also supports any creative or artistic ventures\u2014maybe the real culprit of collaboration troubles was your own inability to own your talents in a dynamic duo. Now, your imagination is back\u2026in full, constructive effect. Dust off the manuscript or pull out your gouache paint set, and let the creativity begin. On November 25, you\u2019ll hit a career milestone (or maybe reach the end of one path), thanks to a full moon in Gemini, your tenth house of professional achievement. You could earn a promotion or score a leadership opportunity. You might also complete a major work phase, wrapping up a big project or undertaking. Since your goal-oriented sign loves to cross the finish line, you could be left with a feeling of, &amp;quot;What&amp;#039;s next?&amp;quot; That&amp;#039;s a fair question, but do take a moment to celebrate all that you&amp;#039;ve accomplished, whether it&amp;#039;s scoring a new job or completing a high-profile project. The VIPs could be tapping YOU for advice, and when that happens, don&amp;#039;t play coy and modest. This coup is all thanks to your hard work and expertise\u2014you deserve to be on the dais as much as anyone else, Virgo. Step into the spotlight\u2026and prep your acceptance speech just in case!  HEALTH: MIND, BODY &amp;amp;amp; SOUL:  Keep it moving! It&amp;#039;s Scorpio season, highlighting your third house of cerebral action, so you have a lot of excited/nervous energy to burn. (What&amp;#039;s new?) It takes a lot to wear you out, Virgo, so you may need to pack in extra workouts, just so you can sleep at night. You may hit the gym with a friend\u2014adding some socializing to your healthy pursuits motivates you doubly. (And it\u2019s a great way to keep up with your BFF&amp;#039;s latest news.) Since you crave stimulation, you may decide to walk to work, taking in your everyday sights with a fresh pair of eyes. Find a new podcast to feed your news/story addiction. Check out this list (https://www.themuse.com/advice/51-smart-podcasts-that-will-make-your-commute-way-better) of the most informative and entertaining options. If music gets you pumped to work out, you may want to freshen up your playlist, or try out a new artist/mix on Spotify.  With stressful Mars in Virgo, your first house of self, until November 12, you definitely need to take the edge off. A heart-pumping cardio routine will go just as far to soothe your nerves and moderate cortisol levels, so that your reaction to normal stressors doesn&amp;#039;t turn into a cautionary tale about burnout and adrenal fatigue. Exercise is vital to your sanity. You may need to pass on a social event or clock out of work early, but the time spent at the gym or in a yoga class will be downright sacred. For ways to get grounded, both physically and spiritually, you may want to check out Colleen Saidman Yee&amp;#039;s gorgeous book, Yoga for Life: A Journey to Inner Peace and Freedom. (http://www.amazon.com/Yoga-Life-Journey-Inner-Freedom/dp/1476776784) Beautifying Venus will lend its magic to this sector of your chart until November 8, ensuring that the result of your self-care regimen is a radiant and attractive glow. On November 22, the Sun slips into Sagittarius, your fourth house of domesticity and family, turning you into quite the homebody for the next four weeks. Avoid the impulse to be the perfect, most domestic diva ever\u2014the holiday season could easily turn stressful, if you&amp;#039;re trying too hard to make everyone happy (and impress them with your Martha Stewart-worthy meal spread). The bright side is that you&amp;#039;ll love having your nearest and dearest around, but if you extend your caretaker role too far\u2014hosting a huge dinner and coordinating everyone&amp;#039;s travel schedules\u2014you could burn out pretty fast. Not that you mind being the planner, Virgo, but still\u2026it can be overwhelming at moments. And what&amp;#039;s the fun in that?  You could have a challenging moment with your clan on November 24, as communicator Mercury aligns with stern Saturn in Sagittarius, days before the Sun and Saturn make the same alignment on November 29. If you&amp;#039;ve been struggling with a family member who pries too much (or says too much), you may need to lay down the law. Boundaries, when it comes to your loved ones, are essential. No more of them popping by unannounced and expecting you to cook and entertain. If you&amp;#039;re doing some family planning, you may be also dealing with fertility issues. Take the tried-and-true route to getting pregnant, eating healthy, getting a check-up, and maybe even seeing an acupuncturist who specializes in fertility, like Julie Von, (http://www.newclinic.org/clinicians/) who has a rep as a &amp;quot;baby whisperer.&amp;quot; These few days might feel a little depressing, but if you know what the right, responsible course of action is with a family or home situation, following this path will give you great solace. Even if you have to make a tough decision, you have the benefit of knowing you maintained your integrity. Saturn could also bring a dose of reality, as you have a sobering moment with your mom or female relative, suddenly understanding old patterns of behavior and dysfunction. Your compassion could save the day\u2014and your relationship\u2014as long as it comes with some firm and healthy limits.
