This Week's Horoscope for Scorpio by Eric Francis Coppolino
Your solar chart is describing a situation where you make the same mistakes over and over again. This seems to be about presumptions you make in relationships, in your psychological assessment of yourself, or both. Yet these ideas or experiences might run so deep that they're out of your normal range of perception. And in fact, you may have data coming back from your environment that affirms your impression. For example, you might be wondering why people seem so inaccessible, and connect that to a pattern in your life. Your tendency might be to blame yourself. However, if you can step back from that, an unusual breakthrough is possible. While I don't have the space here to explain exactly how, this situation comes back to self-esteem. You have been working overtime for a breakthrough here. You know that how you feel about yourself ultimately determines how you feel about being alive. Keep nudging this forward, gently and steadily.

If Your Birthday is Nov. 21
(The Day of Elegance) | Birthday Readings: Scorpio | Sagittarius | Others
You seem torn between accepting certain social norms and revolting against them. Society is in a time of upheaval. You can get away with more rebellion than you might otherwise, though remember: you want to be a rebel with a cause and with a clue. Not all traditions are bad. Some need to be updated. Above all, practice being open-minded.
Written in the Planets
With the Sun in the last degree of Scorpio (it enters Sagittarius tonight into Wednesday, depending on time zone), keep an eye on your edginess meter. Sometimes the Sun at the end of a sign can come with a sense of needing something to shift, but without the timing feeling quite right. Unless you're facing an actual, hard-and-fast deadline today, chances are any major decisions can wait a day, even if they feel 'urgent'. Instead, see if you can understand your emotions better. Venus in Scorpio is making a sexy sextile to Pluto in Capricorn. This bodes well for deepening any kind of friendship or even a group situation, with intimate relationships perhaps being a particular draw. Superficial just won't cut it today.
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 21, 2017 | By Eric Francis Coppolino
If Today is Your Birthday
You seem torn between accepting certain social norms and revolting against them. Society is in a time of upheaval. You can get away with more rebellion than you might otherwise, though remember: you want to be a rebel with a cause and with a clue. Not all traditions are bad. Some need to be updated. Above all, practice being open-minded. You share a birthday with Harold Ramis, Goldie Hawn, and Bjork.
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- You may not feel like you've got everything you want out of a partnership or business situation, though that remains to be seen. You have made significant gains over the past month, and you will be happier if you take a moment to count your blessings and reflect on the benefits you have.
"One gift you get from Pluto in Capricorn is the ability to align your goals with the rapidly changing conditions of the world. You are in an excellent position to take advantage of the shifting, quaking and shaking state of society. This of course requires being present and not being afraid when things get really real. You can and must look for the opportunities presented by change."
-- 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 now.
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- You may not understand where a certain relationship situation is going or how it's developing. But it's not all so distressing; you're in a transition that will work itself out rather quickly, and you'll soon find yourself in a clearer, brighter space, with fewer cares and concerns.
"If you ever feel lost or misguided, come back to purpose, which you will know when you feel it. Experiment all you need to. The more you experiment with bringing purpose and meaning to the surface of your consciousness, and consider them carefully, the more strength you will have; the more persistence; and more motivation and energy."
-- 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 now.
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Let your desire be beautiful. Let it burn through all your ideas about what is right and wrong. Feel who you are, what you want and what you need, and let that be OK. Feel your desire to throw away or smash all those expectations it seems people have of you, and be yourself.
"The dualism of Gemini is well known; you can live in a world of relative truth, which might work for you -- though consider how it works for those you influence. Pisces is the place in the zodiac where opposites are integrated and resolved, and for you this happens through your most meaningful work."
-- 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 now.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Partners may seem a little rebellious at the moment, though give them the space to be themselves, and appreciate their feisty approach to life. It will help if you don't take this personally, unless of course you want to get a little feisty yourself. There's a time and place for friendly rough play.
"Living in peace with your desire is one commitment to make to yourself. As you do this, it will have an influence on your relationships. This is to say, as you raise your energy and commit to being real with what you want, others will take notice. Ultimately the result will be living in your body rather than in your head."
-- 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 now.
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- You may have a lot to get done before the holiday break (hopefully you get one); though, rather than labor, use your mind. You have plenty of it; you need to save time, and the best shortcut of all is a brilliant idea. You can accomplish two or three goals at once, and save time and effort.
"If you consider yourself to be at the center of your social circle, or an integral part of your community, the changes you make in your own life constitute a form of leadership for the people around you. You can count on the fact that the people who look up to you are waiting for your initiative."
-- 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 now.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- Something may be brewing with relatives or living partners, and you would best be proactive. Tune in and see if you can figure out what's going on. In particular, check in with young people, including nieces and nephews; ask them what they're up to, and listen carefully.
"The universe is not usually embraced all at once, nor is your place in the universe. Rather, you engage with it in momentary interactions, and you make it with everything you make, everyone you speak to, everyone and everything you touch. Imagine that in each of those contacts, you weave existence, and give life to the world."
-- 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 now.
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- You have made substantial progress over the past month. Take a moment and size up what you've accomplished and how you've done it. Simply by being motivated, you've improved your financial situation, and you feel better about yourself. Keep your focus and don't take anything for granted.
"Trust yourself, and trust your body, if you embody what I call the thresholder: one whose role is to bring others to the edge. You can only take them to the edge; they must cross over themselves. Others can only take you to the edge; you must cross over it yourself, and see who welcomes you on the other side of the journey."

Dear Friend of Planet Waves:
I recently did the astrology portions of the Scorpio reading. That reading is ready for instant access.
While I was working, I had a feeling I often get doing these readings: this is information I would want to know were I interested in astrology, if it was available. I would want to know about this, if only I had an astrologer I was fairly sure had a clue what was happening. [Listen to audio preview here.]
Over the next year or so, three critical planets will change signs: Saturn, Chiron and Uranus. (Chiron is often thought to be a morph of Saturn and Uranus, so that's pretty cool.) Saturn will ingress Capricorn at the end of the year, then next year, Chiron will enter Aries and Uranus will enter Taurus. Plus, several important minor planets will change signs.
What you get with my birthday (and annual) readings is astrology that's too complex to put into the horoscope column, but too personal to say much about in my articles. Using a very old technique called whole-sign houses, I am able to cast an actual chart and read that chart just like I would if you were sitting here.
For just $44, you get a reading that comes very close to a personal reading, containing much that a competent astrologer would say -- if they understood both the classical and modern astrology. This is the thing.
So much of what's happening now compels an understanding of contemporary developments in astrology. A minor planet that was discovered in 1999, and named a few weeks ago, fills in a missing piece of the puzzle in the current astrology. You can read about that here.
This reading, and my approach to by-sign readings, fills in a vast middle ground in astrology: we have horoscope columns (most of them irrelevant), we have blogs and newsletters (most of them speculative) and we have "prepared reports," drawn from a database by your birthdate, which if you were lucky were written fewer than 15 years ago.
The reading I'm offering now was done today, based on research I've been doing with my team all week and weekend -- and supported by my decades of work, writing, research and presenting in the astrology field.
I've included a graphic of the chart so you can see how sophisticated my approach is. In my presentation, though, I am speaking directly to you, in everyday language. You won't need a Ph.D. in astrology to understand this: you just need to be curious about yourself. You may appreciate the fact that I am direct and honest about relationships, sexuality and the social constructs that influence them -- a topic of vast importance today, and of interest to you. I cover much more than that, however.
You will love and benefit from this reading, or you may have your money back.
Here's how to get instant access.
with love,
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- You want to be independent, though you don't need to push that so hard. It's enough that you have your own approach to life, your own ideas, and some financial independence from others. If you need extra space, take it before you get irritated with anyone. You're entitled to some time alone.
"Make some peace with what you really feel beneath the surface tension of appearances. The reason that staying superficial is so popular is because it negates feeling. Yet every facet of your astrology is saying it's essential to go deep -- and that depth is essential in feeling good about who you are, and discovering who you are."
-- 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 now.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- You may feel like you have to break social norms, but really, you just need to remind yourself that you have the freedom to do what you want. Rather than staging a rebellion, use your sense of humor. You can just as easily laugh at what might make you angry. Laughter is a form of revolt.
"You might think of Saturn as the one missing and necessary ingredient in Sagittarius. It's not an easy mix. It is, however, a imperative one, if you want to get anything done; if you want to claim your full personhood. To live free means to take up responsibility for your destiny."

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- Mars making its way across the fame and reputation angle of your chart has you in an especially ambitious mode, though as you've recently discovered, you don't want to push things too hard. Take an even-handed approach and work with at least a medium-range plan. Slow and steady wins the race.
"The thing is, your future self is not as easy to perceive as your past self. Every transit I've described adds up to you developing in ways that you simply cannot predict, and which therefore amount to a daunting unknown. In order to face who you are becoming, you must face that unknown."
-- 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 now.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- The Sun's sign-change into Sagittarius will lighten up your outlook and open up your social prospects. You've been a little too focused on work lately. You're getting results, though for better efficiency, you need more recreational time. End work at a reasonable hour and get out among people.
"The fantasy is simple; you're in control. The reality is more complex; feelings are involved. I recommend trying anything that you're bringing out of fantasy at least three times before you make up your mind. Gradually work your way into it. Build your courage. Find the right people and persist in your experiment. Let curiosity drive you."
-- 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 now.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Important career matters continue to brew, though it's getting around time to make a concrete decision. That may be spurred by an idea, by some unusual success or by your feeling that things just need to change. Change is approaching, though you want to be the one making the decisions.
"There really is no mission, career or vocation: there is you, becoming who you are. I feel like I keep saying this, though this notion keeps coming up in your astrology. You're not really changing; rather, your inner essence is emerging in a way that is both unstoppable and undeniable. And this you can express as mission."
