"A woman who writes feels too much,
those trances and portents!
As if cycles and children and islands
weren't enough; as if mourners and gossips
and vegetables were never enough.
She thinks she can warm the stars.
A writer is essentially a spy.
Dear love, I am that girl."
-- Anne Sexton

As voters on Tuesday turned against the Republican Party one year after Donald Trump was elected president, a new report, "Autopsy: The Democratic Party in Crisis," examines the role of Democratic Party loyalists in the party’s 2016 defeat. Amy and Juan look at the outcomes from election night with the report's co-author, Norman Solomon.

If Your Birthday is Nov. 9
(The Day of Earthly Temptation) | Scorpio Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Learning how to receive what others are offering you will help you grow, and will facilitate your success. Receiving requires vulnerability, and you would be well served to end your standoff with being open to others. You'll know you're succeeding when you consciously have to go beyond whatever fears come up, and trust others enough to nourish you.
Written in the Planets
The Sun making a sextile to Pluto is ideal astrology for moving anything that feels stuck. This might include, for example, a habit or routine that's outgrown its usefulness. You may, from time to time, be surprised by how quickly you evolve or change on certain matters. In this there is little to fear and much to celebrate. You're free to rise above conventions or superstition or fear of the unknown, and step into a whole new adventure.
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 9, 2017 | By Eric Francis Coppolino
If Today is Your Birthday
Learning how to receive what others are offering you will help you grow, and will facilitate your success. Receiving requires vulnerability, and you would be well served to end your standoff with being open to others. You'll know you're succeeding when you consciously have to go beyond whatever fears come up, and trust others enough to nourish you. You share a birthday with Hedy Lamarr, Carl Sagan, and Sandra "Pepa" Denton.
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- You must be willing to assert yourself, to get what you want. Rather than sitting around waiting for good things to come to you, make it a project. Know your own desires and set about the artful craft of bringing them into your life. This will teach you the power of your own creativity.
"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."
-- 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.
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- If you have emotional needs, be open about them with close partners and loved ones. The key to doing this is refusing to feel guilty. You might also substitute 'need' with 'want' and see how you sound when you make the statement. The people who care about you will be responsive.
"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."

Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- You can be free of the past, if you want to. Yet, to have that privilege, you must understand your past and how you relate to it. For many people what happened long ago means more than what is happening right now. This is not a key to happiness, and there is a way through the maze.
"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 here. Eric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- You are in an excellent position to improve your income. This might come through a personal business, or through negotiating a raise. Remember that as far as bosses and clients are concerned, what matters most is what you can do in the future, not what you did in the past.
"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."
-- 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.
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- The Moon burst into your sign this morning, and you may be wondering whether you're on top of the world or about to fall off. The thing is, you always feel better close to the edge, and you always keep your grip. Some bold adventure is waiting for you today. Don't hold back.
"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 here. Eric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- All weekend, your ruling planet Mercury will be making a square to Neptune, which will offer you a sense of security and wellbeing. At the same time, an intimate relationship may go to a new depth. Just make sure that you can swim well enough to hang out at the deep end of the pool.
"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."
-- 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.
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- You may be pushing to attain a financial goal that finally seems to be in reach, though that will take care of itself. You must continue to take care of yourself, so that you keep your momentum and flow from one project to the next. Just take a slower pace and work with long-range goals.
"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
The Help You Need To Make the Most of Your Incredible Year
"Your work has always offered me food for thought, options to consider and clarity when needed. Thank you very much for what you do and how you present it."
-- Victoria Bouet
Dear Scorpio Friend and Reader:
It seems that every day, there's a new tragedy to grapple with. If you're at all sensitive, life can feel overwhelming on an almost-daily basis. Yet you have deeper reserves than you might think; your passion is a powerful tool for transformation -- and this year, you have some extra-special help in your sign.
That would be Jupiter, which is keeping you company for the next 12 months or so, and which kicked off your solar year with a potential-filled conjunction with the Scorpio Sun. You also have company in the form of Eric Francis and your 2017-18 Birthday Reading.
The key to using Jupiter's blessings well is to use them consciously, with full intention and actual action. As you do, you'll pave the way for making the most of the other major planetary sign changes coming up: Saturn leaving Sagittarius for Capricorn; Uranus entering your relationship sign, Taurus; and Chiron leaving Pisces for Aries (a Mars-ruled sign, like yours).
As your environment shifts, you'll need to adjust how you interact with it. Whether that means channeling your energy and emotions into your relationships, your home, your creative risk-taking or some other facet of life, you'll want to do so as productively and with as little wasted effort as possible. And you can.
Eric designs 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. This means the 2017-18 Scorpio Birthday Reading makes the perfect gift for your Scorpio Sun, Moon or rising sign loved ones.
You'll get two segments of astrology, a tarot reading for the year, and an extended description of your sign. Best of all, you can listen as many times as you'd like -- whenever you need a pick-me-up or some new insights throughout the year.
"The Scorpio reading described my life right now and was much needed! Thank you!"
-- Columba Genubath
How will you use the blessings of Jupiter in your sign this year, Scorpio?
Yours & truly,
Amanda Painter

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- One thing you must learn how to overcome is petty insecurity. You need to coast over it like a ship moves through the waves. Today you'll have the choice whether to doubt yourself, or affirm yourself. Once you figure out that this is a decision, it will be obvious what to do.
"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 here. Eric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- You may be feeling a little overexposed, whether it's excessive time on social media, your face on realtor ads all over the neighborhood or your PR team working overtime. You might want to take a few hours off from the internet today, and spend some time in a café with a book and your diary.
"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 here. Eric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- You've probably figured out that there's a problem with the "one size fits all" relationship model. You need the custom edition, with specific agreements that allow both you and your partners to live the lives you want. Just one thing stands in the way, which is jealousy. This, you can outgrow.
"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 here. Eric's beginning work on the 2018 annual edition. Pre-order that here.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Most of your good luck will come through others today -- people willing to help, people who offer a kind word, or someone with an idea that you might want to dismiss at first. Be kind and open-minded with everyone. Listen carefully to people even if you don't think they make much sense.
"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 (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Do not be content with yesterday's dreams. Rather, push yourself to imagine what's possible, and to have the moxie to dare to try making it happen. Everything that happens in the world does so because someone wants it to be that way. It's your turn to step up to the challenge.
"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."
