If Your Birthday is Nov. 5
(The Day of Actuality) | Scorpio Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Be careful not to make too many assumptions. Rather, find the courage to ask people where they are coming from, and have the courage to tell them your point of view. It's only when people are working with a full set of facts that they can make honest and helpful decisions. This is rare to find; though, for you, it's an essential element in your happiness.

Written in the Planets
There's a whiff of adventure and fun in today's astrology as Mercury enters Sagittarius. If you find yourself hankering for a little stimulus, you might set your mind at liberty for a while and see where your daydreams take you. If there's something particular you notice you'd really like to enjoy or accomplish, a good first step is to consider it as possible, however you might ordinarily feel. The finer details and practicalities tend to become a lot clearer once that bar is lifted, and you may suddenly find that any challenges you perceive are not, after all, insurmountable.

Planet Waves By any standards, 2018 will be a distinctive year astrologically. Get your essential guide to riding the waves of the next 12 months and beyond. Pre-order The Art of Becoming, the 2018 Planet Waves Annual by Eric Francis.

Daily Horoscope for November 5, 2017 | By Eric Francis Coppolino
If Today is Your Birthday
Be careful not to make too many assumptions. Rather, find the courage to ask people where they are coming from, and have the courage to tell them your point of view. It's only when people are working with a full set of facts that they can make honest and helpful decisions. This is rare to find; though, for you, it's an essential element in your happiness. You share a birthday with Vivien Leigh, Art Garfunkel, and Bryan Adams.
Aries
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- Ultimately, what is spiritual must also have a practical benefit. You're in a rare position this week to work with the two, and to notice the relationship between them. Any ideas you accept as higher teaching must have an actual purpose. You may find the deepest truths in what is the most ordinary.
"One's relationship to change is the underlying reality that determines how one handles transits. This relationship counts for a lot now, and you would be wise to bring it to full awareness. What you're currently experiencing is the culmination of six years of nonstop and ever-increasing energy. All of that has been excellent preparation. Now, you're experiencing the actual threshold, the invocation of your new life."

Taurus
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- Pay close consideration to financial matters that come to your attention this week. You may find that they're mingled with emotional material, and it will help if you sort that out by giving careful scrutiny to the facts and figures. Where money is concerned, there are very few matters of opinion.
"You possess actual creativity, actual devotion and a strong tendency to be ethical. If you don't let fear contaminate your mind, you will be able to connect these things in the form of your true vocation. If you are involved in what you consider to be your true vocation, you will have opportunities to go deeper and to bring in something that has the power to change you and change the world around you. That's the mark of truth: it's alive, it's active, it's provocative, and it compels you to establish an ongoing relationship with it."

-- From your 2017 annual reading by Eric Francis, The Book of Your Life, which you can read hereEric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Gemini
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Take today and slow down as much as a Gemini can in the modern world. Get some time to yourself and prepare mentally for the things you have to do this week. There will be interactions with influential people, collaborators and intimate partners. You will need your composure.
"The two most significant aspects of life -- love, and work -- are coming in at full strength. You're in a moment unlike any other you've lived through, at least speaking from the viewpoint of your astrology. It's all so much that you might not be so thrilled; you may not see the opportunities in the wild mash-up of factors that are influencing your life. To begin with, I am here to remind you that you're larger than it all." 

-- From your 2017 annual reading by Eric Francis, The Book of Your Life, which you can read hereEric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Cancer
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- You might take the next 48 hours and consciously evaluate how you feel about an important matter that came to a head Friday or Saturday. You don't need to rush this assessment; you owe it to yourself to take things one step at a time, and decide how to work events to your best advantage.
"You are the kind of person who must become your intentions and give everything all you've got. You feel better when you do this, even if you're having to stretch a little. Being half-hearted does not suit you. You are a whole-hearted person, you want to feel that fully, and you want to be appreciated for what you do. This is the essence of self-esteem and it's currently one of the most basic elements of your astrology."

Leo
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- This would be a good day, or evening, to get out of the house and be among people. I would suggest somewhere quiet enough to have a conversation, and hear what people have to say without having them repeat it three times. You'll feel better when you have some company.
"The more you take a proactive and creative role, the less it will feel like changes are happening to you and the more it will feel like you are working with the incoming forces to create the change that you want. Therefore, pay close attention to just what that is: know what you want to change. I suggest you work with two lists: what you want to resolve or eliminate, and what you want to create. Both will happen as part of the same process."

-- From your 2017 annual reading by Eric Francis, The Book of Your Life, which you can read hereEric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Virgo
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- Mercury, the Virgo planet, is about to change signs to Sagittarius, which will brighten up your outlook on life. Mostly, you will be reminded that you need other people less than you may think. Your happiness depends on yourself rather than on the actions and choices of others.
"You could say that apart from all the psychological concepts attached to self-esteem, the experience you're looking for is feeling good about who you are. This is a feeling, not a concept. Rather than strive for the feeling, the thing to do is give yourself the experiences that you want; the experiences that will enrich you and help you develop into your personhood. To feel good about yourself, it's vital that you know how to express who you are, and what you feel."

Libra
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- Mars is continuing its journey through your sign, which is a reminder to assert yourself. As the next week passes, you may need to do this whether you think people believe you or not. However, it would be wise to check in repeatedly with yourself and make sure your thoughts are on the right track.
"Your workplace must be not just habitable but truly supportive. You simply must like the place where you work, or you risk your mental and emotional health. Others can get by with jobs they hate, or substandard working environments; you cannot. Therefore, invest the time and energy that you need to have a place of work that supports your creativity, your health and your wellbeing."

Scorpio Birthdays 2017-18
Sensing Behind the Veil: Your Guide into a Big Year
"Your passion, deep care and love always shine through; and you have the gift of all great teachers, of making one feel that one is being personally addressed, respected and taken care of."
-- Liz Glanville
Dear Scorpio Friend and Reader:

Here we are in that time when the veil between this world and unseen realms is said to be thinnest. I know many people, including several Scorpios, who revel in the sensations of this season. Yet tuning in takes conscious intention; it asks you to make time and psychic space for subtler forms of connection than what modern life generally facilitates.

That's one of the beauties of your 2017-18 Scorpio Birthday Reading: it's the ideal tool to help you tune in -- to yourself, to the astrology, to your soul's purpose in this world, and to your connection to the subtler realms.

Scorpio
Your solar year is beginning with astonishing potential, thanks to Jupiter's presence. And while Jupiter is not exactly 'subtle', it still asks you to make conscious contact with its energy -- Eric will guide you in how to make the most of it.

With Saturn, Uranus and Chiron changing signs, your environment will be shifting -- yet another great reason to focus your bandwidth and deepen your awareness. In particular, Uranus entering your opposite sign and 'relationship house' -- Taurus -- could bring some surprises over the next few years. Listening to your birthday reading will help you get oriented on the inherent creative potential, and to channel your energy and emotion in deeply productive ways.

Your reading will include two astrology segments of at least 30 minutes each, plus a tarot reading using the Voyager Tarot by James Wanless (you also get an extended description of your sign). Recorded in pro-quality audio, you can listen as many times as you like.

And, you'll want to: Eric creates these readings to combine the best of his motivational life-coaching skills; the best of his therapy training; and the most down-to-Earth, practical, jargon-free astrological insights you'll find anywhere on the internet.
"A devoted follower of your work since 2008, and a supporting member now for more than a year, I feel your readings are spot on so I keep coming back."
-- Lesley (Scorpio x 3)

Yours & truly,

Amanda Painter

P.S. If you know and love anyone with a Scorpio Sun, Moon or rising sign, the 2017-18 Scorpio Birthday Reading makes an incredible gift.



Scorpio
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- You cannot let your anxieties and insecurities define who you are. You might be surprised if you could see the extent to which you allow this to happen. Yet to change this, you need a better source of information. Pay attention to what your senses are telling you: literally, your eyes, ears and nose.
"You must gather with people who share common values with you. You can no longer afford to invest your precious time and psychic energy with people who do not embody the highest vibration of what you desire, and know to be true. You will feel better about yourself when you can speak openly about what you value the most, and spend time with those who share your spiritual goals and your purpose for living."

-- From your 2017 annual reading by Eric Francis, The Book of Your Life, which you can read hereEric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- Don't allow your fears to run away with you. Keep your perspective, and remember how little of what you've ever worried about has ever come true. Mercury is about to enter your sign, which is something that can be preceded by a little burst of anxiety. Just let it pass through you.
"To succeed, your work plan must have metes and bounds. You must choose the things you need to accomplish within a specific timeframe, and these choices must be prioritized. This does not mean that you will follow your plans exactly, and you'll very likely alter your priorities as you proceed. Yet it's essential to start with some organized scheme, so that you have an overview, and you have a first draft to revise."

-- From your 2017 annual reading by Eric Francis, The Book of Your Life, which you can read hereEric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Capricorn
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- Worry less about your image and more about substance. Spend less time talking, especially at work, and more time focusing on the task at hand. Pause social media for a few hours a day. You'll guide your life through the week with far less effort and more opportunity to relax.
"You are someone who is more connected to the wider flow of the human experience than you might otherwise be. Even if you're not an official leader, or into politics, you are connected (often rather consciously) to aspects of life that extend far beyond yourself. This connection sometimes comes bursting into your life when you're not vaguely interested. Sometimes you feel it as a direct calling, and you may or may not know what to do with that."

-- From your 2017 annual reading by Eric Francis, The Book of Your Life, which you can read hereEric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Aquarius
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Forget your doubts; you've made key decisions, and a new phase of your life is beginning. You're about to go public with a plan you've been hatching. That's a beautiful thing, because you'll finally get a look at whether you've been on the right tack. But take your time making that assessment.
"Within the morphogenetic fields of your sign is an inbred rebelliousness of mind. This comes with the refusal to accept patterns imposed by others; the capacity to hybridize one's views and have original positions on social and political issues; which in turn leads to a kind of eccentricity that is very much a quality of your nature. So too is a distinct inventiveness, if you can keep your mind awake, alert and young."

-- From your 2017 annual reading by Eric Francis, The Book of Your Life, which you can read here. Eric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Pisces
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- As a Pisces, you tend to walk with one foot in the world of dreams. This could apply to your creative abilities, all of which are a bit dreamlike. But it also applies directly to your connection with the 'other world', which is especially strong right now. Information is coming through; listen carefully.
"After many adventures, misadventures, developments, challenges and crises, you've integrated the many seemingly separate facets of who you were into someone who you now most distinctly are. I suggest you make a study of this gradual transformation that's taken over your life, and which is nearly complete. Feel the ways in which you've worked out problems that seemed to have no solution. Notice how your confidence level has increased."
