HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, November 5, 2022. We’re currently sandwiched between two eclipses, which means that day-to-day life might seem more chaotic or intense. For today, relationships may be a bit more difficult to navigate than usual as there’s some strong “make it or break it” energy in the air. At the same time, there may be a strong craving for something new and exciting, while, for some, the idea of change might be scary. Though, no matter what side of the fence we’re on, we may need to guard against doing something careless or impulsive as a means of dealing with boredom or difficult feelings.

ARIES: (March 21 to April 19)

Are you keeping someone at arm’s length? It’s OK to let them in.

TAURUS: (April 20 to May 20)

There’s only but so much of you to go around. Take a break.

GEMINI: (May 21 to June 20)

You want things to move faster with a goal or a plan than they’re able to go. If you keep pushing you’ll only frustrate yourself more. Take it slow.

CANCER: (June 21 to July 22)

Don’t worry yourself too much about the future. Focus on appreciating what you have now.

LEO: (July 23 to Aug. 22)

Be mindful of jumping into new commitments. You don’t have the bandwidth right now.

VIRGO: (Aug 23 to Sept 22)

Steer clear of discussing hot-button topics or sharing controversial opinions. Keep some things to yourself.

LIBRA: (Sept 23 to Oct 22)

If something or someone upsets you today, don’t look to retail therapy for help. Lean on a friend or take some space to cool off.

SCORPIO: (Oct 23 to Nov 21)

A certain partnership or relationship may no longer be salvageable. Handle the situation responsibly so as not to create more tension.

SAGITTARIUS: (Nov 22 to Dec 21)

You might feel like blowing off your responsibilities today. Let folks know that you need a break or more time for your tasks before you disappear.

CAPRICORN: (Dec 22 to Jan 19)

It feels good to be of help to your friends, but think twice before swooping in to save the day or pick up the tab. Don’t overextend yourself.

AQUARIUS: (Jan 20 to Feb 18)

You’re feeling the pull to take your career in a new direction. Or maybe you want to start or end a key alliance. Have someone help you determine the best strategy.

PISCES: (Feb. 19 to March 20)

You could be eager to sign up for an exciting course or book a trip — though it might not be affordable. Consider creating a savings plan.
