Horoscopes for the Week of November 26- December 2, 2012
Last week the Sun entered the adventurous sing of Sagittarius, starting a month long of increased optimism, daring and creativity. The solar ingress into this bright and philosophical sign was slow and a bit shy, courtesy of Mercury's retrograde dampening effect on our psyche. But fear not, Mercury will start moving forward again on Monday/Tuesday, leaving behind a trail of missed-communications, entangled conversations and frustrating delays. With the great mischief making moving ahead on its path, leave old routines and stale ideas behind. Are you ready to make your dreams come true and fulfill your destiny? During the weeks ahead up until the Winter Solstice on December 21 -- ask yourself the bigger questions about the meaning of your life ... and your purpose in it. You may be surprised by some of the intriguing answers you get. It's time to be both inspired and inspiring!
November 27: Mars conjuncts Pluto
Last week, when Mars connected with the Uranus-Pluto square with its own square to Uranus, you were ready to break free from conditions and people no longer good for you. This week, Mars connects with powerful Pluto, giving you the opportunity to direct your passion and energy toward something you want to achieve. This aspect has fabulous potential if you know how to handle yourself. If you don't try to run everything on your own, influential people will align themselves with you. And if you're an avowed control freak and have alienated others who could help you now, do everything possible to fix that problem! If you can be proactive instead of reactive, you'll be miles ahead of others -- and chances are you'll earn a few karma points along the way!
November 28: Lunar eclipse in Gemini
Watch out for information overload as this dramatic lunar eclipse highlights all forms of communication. Whether you read attention-grabbing headlines about global and national events, or simply receive news about people in your personal life, it seems like everybody has something important to report! Don't allow yourself to become distracted by superficial, gossipy conversations. Rather, use the power of this eclipse to spread a positive and empowering message.
Life will get better this week and the ones to follow but also much more fast paced. Hang on to your hats and seize the opportunities. And if you want to know more and in detail how your life could shape up if you only knew what/how to do...you may want to book an appointment with me for a private consultation on skype, the phone or in person.

Until then, as I usually say, live, love and learn.
Here are my insights on what is in store for each sign this week.
ARIES
Mercury powers forward in Scorpio this early Tuesday, effectively ending a three-week retrograde phase, and restoring your charm to maximum potency. Since November 6, retrograde Mercury has brought a skyfall of drama into your world. From dealing with jealous friends to alternatively fending off and trying to figure out mischievous exes, to sorting out sticky contract negotiations, you may have found yourself swimming in red tape. Freeing yourself will be a delicate matter and one that requires a good deal of your attention this week. Take back your power, Aries, Thursday brings a moment of truth occasioned by a lunar eclipse in Gemini , revealing hidden information you simply can’t ignore. Ask yourself if you can really trust (or count on) a person, partner, association or deal. The answer will come but do not act on your new certainty just yet. You'll be better positioned to do so after Mercury gets some traction.
TAURUS
You will rediscover your inner sexy kitten for the next month, as the sun slinks into Sagittarius and your erotic, exotic eighth house. Make the best of it, work it and see the results! But beware, the balancing act of relationships will be thrown under the stark light of a naked bulb. While you’re willing to shoulder more than your share of the burden at times, you’ve also been enabling your partner’s slacking ways. Financially, this month of Sagittarius solar power could bring some windfalls. The eighth house rules lump sums of cash, like royalties, inheritances, and commissions. Pursue a big money opportunity or brainstorm potential passive income streams like a sales website,for example. Just make sure you believe in the product you’re hawking, Taurus, as your authentic endorsement is required to make this a go.
GEMINI
The Sun’s shift into Sagittarius last week ignited a month long tour through your seventh house of partnerships. Finding your other half is an eternal quest for Gemini, the twin, and you’ve no doubt auditioned a rotating cast of characters for this role. You’re an ....ever-changing being, so finding one person who can furnish all your needs (and hopefully elevate along a similar trajectory) can be a challenge.When Mercury turns direct this week, you’ll be ready to go the distance with an eligible option. But also hold your fires for a little while, as the eclipse will cast the light of truth on a person or situation OR cast a shadow on your understanding of it/them. In other words, even your quicksilver mind can get foggy. If you can just observe whatever is unfolding and hold on from eloping to Vegas instantly, you will be in a better position to advance in a few days.
CANCER
On early Tuesday, messenger Mercury wakes up from a three-week retrograde through your house of style, romance, and creativity. If your self-expression has waned since early November, fear not. Fading in with the wallpaper is not your fate; in fact, you’re due to make a brilliant entrance again this week. If a strey ex has found their way back into your inner landscape (by accident or voluntarily) and you allowed it, you will now see things in the clear again. On Thursday, a lunar eclipse in Gemini rockets through your twelfth house of closure, completions, and help from above. A guardian angel or saviour type could enter your world; or a mentor who you met near the corresponding solar eclipse on May 20, 2012 could emerge as a powerful figure in this week’s events, ushering in an incredible opportunity for you, or taking you under his/her wing. Got any addictive habits to break? For Cancers, emotional eating and tippin’ back the moonshine can be the big ones. These lures could be exacerbated during the eclipse, so keep your support base close.
LEO
With Mercury retrograde in your domestic sector, these past weeks have given you cause for wanting to break those "ties that bind" or a domestic arrangement that is clearly going sour. This Tuesday, the communication planet resumes forward motion, bringing back the love between you and your inner circle. Some Leos may even be spurred to flip through the real estate listings and will relocate to a more suitable space in the days ahead. There’s no need to put up with a crappy roommate or shabby rental anymore, Leo. Break that lease and learn from your mistakes. You’ll choose more wisely the next time. A team effort hits a high note this Thursday, when a lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini lights up your eleventh house of groups and collaborations. This eclipse is the culmination of six months of hard work that began with the corresponding solar (new moon) eclipse in Gemini on May 20 This eclipse is the perfect date to launch a web-based venture or at least put up a splash page to announce your presence on the virtual map. The two weeks following this eclipse could bring an influx of brilliant ideas for how to make money on the web. An e-commerce or network marketing site, even a blog have the potential to become serious revenue generators for you.
VIRGO
On Thursday, a lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini and your tenth house lights the way to a brilliant career opportunity. Just as Earth’s shadow will only be visible on the moon for a short spell, this prospect could come and go in a near flash. You’ll have to throw your Virgoan caution to the wind and trust your intuition. If your gut says “Go for it!” don’t waste time polling every friend who will pick up her phone. Make an autonomous decision and leap! Eclipses can black out one option, forcing you to look in a new direction. Should one door close (even temporarily) on Thursday, forget about fiddling with the lock. Search for a window, as there is something beyond your current scope that is calling you. A helpful man may be part of the picture: the tenth house is the "cosmic boys’ club", so tap the guys in your circle if you need a boost up the ladder this week.
LIBRA
A lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini bursts wide in your ninth house of travel, higher education, and entrepreneurial ventures. This lunar eclipse is the culmination of a corresponding solar (new moon) eclipse in Gemini that happened last May 20, so check back to see what seeds you planted then. A long distance relationship—for romance or finance—could be a sealed deal, one that might just prompt you to hit the “Buy Now” button on a deal. Libra business owners could reach a decisive or milestone moment...for better or worse. You may be invited to teach or speak to an audience about what you know, a long held dream of yours. This will finally be your breakthrough or you will finally find out what has been developing behind the scenes that prevented your dream to manifest in real life. Both good...
SCORPIO
On Thursday, a lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini brings some "seal-the-deal" energy into your universe. This eclipse is the culmination point of a corresponding solar (new moon) eclipse in Gemini that happened this past May 20. Discussions about a merger—for romance or finance—that began this spring could get super-serious this week. You might just put a ring on it, or sign some form of joining-of-assets contract. This eclipse could bring a big sale, so if you’ve had property on the market or are looking to invest in some yourself, the process will be expedited, moving things along at a faster clip than you may have expected. There’s an all-or-nothing vibe to this eclipse too, so if you’ve exhausted yourself stressing, obsessing and enduring fits of jealous rage in the name of “love,” harness this lunar power to set yourself free. Cut the cords of a toxic entanglement and free yourself up for a connection that sooths your soul instead of sinking it.
SAGITTARIUS
On Thursday, an important relationship reaches a milestone moment under the spell of the lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini and your seventh house of partnerships. Who came into your orbit near May 20? That was the day of the corresponding solar (new moon) eclipse in Gemini, and a relationship that was born that day could find its groove, becoming “officially official.” Eclipses DO reveal shadows, so brace yourself for some surprises. You might realize that the uber-helpful coworker or the friend whose shoulder you’ve been crying on for months is actually not that helpful or, you could suddenly have a flash of understanding about a recent relationship fallout. How have you participated in this dynamic, Sag? Yes, it’s time to make a change…and a big one…but you can do so without bringing the relationship to its knees. Let this eclipse turn your attention towards proactive, cooperative solutions. They do exist! (especially if you walk a minute in someone else's shoes). Business partnerships are swayed by this eclipse, which could herald an exciting contract or end one that you’ve been dragging along.
CAPRICORN
With Mercury powering forward, a stalled online venture could take flight again. If you have a website, blog post, or other techie project that’s ready to share with the world, it’s safe to hit the launch button after Tuesday. Still in the development process? Do a little sourcing and let the general public (or at least your Twitter followers) give you their candid feedback by sharing a link or tossing out an idea for critique. Your carefully crafted Capricorn routines could get a mighty shake-up by the lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini. You may be forced to think on your feet, scrambling for a solution for a situation you thought you had locked down. As irritating as this process may be, it’s an incredible opportunity for you to mine the reserves of your own slumbering creativity. What you dream up in the last minute will be pure genius. Have faith in your ability to improvise!
AQUARIUS
Retrograde Mercury has been painfully sliding through your tenth house of authority figures making anyone from teachers to bosses to the cop on the corner seem like the force that’s been holding you down.This week, set about the task of repairing these relationships by seeing them in the light of truth and admitting YOUR part in the sluggish performance. Mend fences, even if that requires a little begging for forgiveness here and there.On Thurdsay, another spike in your popularity comes, courtesy of the lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini and your romantic fifth house. The spotlight that’s been searching for you since the corresponding solar (new moon) eclipse this past May 20 could hone in. Are you ready for your close-up, Aquarius? There will be plenty more eyes on you than you’re used to, but don’t worry: you’ll perform like a pro. This eclipse could throw your hidden talents into sharp relief or make you loose a profitable opportunity because if the less than elegant way you showcase your work.
PISCES
On Thursday, a lunar (full moon) eclipse in Gemini and your fourth house of home could bring developments to your home. Eclipses are harbingers of change and by the weekend, things might look quite different under your roof. You may finally get going on that renovation project or put that errant roommate’s belongings on the curb. If a relocation has been in the works—especially since the corresponding solar (new moon) eclipse in Gemini this past May 20—this eclipse could shove you out of the nest and on to greener pastures. Even if you don’t literally pack up shop this week, plans could get underway for a future move, one that brings the promise of a much happier lifestyle. A family member or close female friend may suddenly need an assist. Jump in for the save, Pisces, as you’re the one who can make things right. Besides, this person has been there for you through thick and thin and you don’t want to bail on the payback moment. Financial security is another big theme of this eclipse. If you’ve been living beyond your means, you could get a bit of a wakeup call. Let this be your motivation to scale back and simplify.
Until next week, live, love and learn!
