The World Is Better for Your Presence

Dear Friend and Reader:

Whether or not you live in the U.S., I hope that you discovered many reasons to feel thankful this past weekend despite the ongoing pain and chaos in the news. While we all experience moments of grief and fear, there is also an incredible amount of beauty and kindness and love in this world; sometimes it takes special effort to redirect one's attention to it, however.

Short of viewing Earth and its struggles from space, there are other ways to get some perspective. Photo of Earth and the Milky Way from the International Space Station by Scott Kelly / NASA.
Some of this week's astrology is building toward aspects that may increase your sense of tension and frustration; specifically Mercury stationing retrograde and a Full Moon. Yet there are important mitigating factors along the way.

For example, beginning the week we have the Mercury-Saturn-Pholus-Galactic Core conjunction in late Sagittarius. This is the astrology that last week's Astrology Diary highlighted. This is the aspect pattern that is urging you to remember you are an adult should you happen to meet someone whose parental posturing threatens to trigger you into reacting like a child. The Galactic Core is offering the message that you have the power to stand in your truth.

Yet it's later in the week that things get interesting. For instance, on Friday Mars in Libra will oppose Uranus in Aries. Mars aspects are often noticeable as they approach, and this is a good one to grasp early.

If Your Birthday is Nov. 27
(The Day of Electrifying Excitement) | Sagittarius Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Identify the kinds of doubts that eat away at your confidence, and address them directly. Most people you know are still caught in the same fears they were five or 10 or 20 years ago. You are embarking on a major new phase of your life, and you can only go forward from a place of actual self-esteem. Be bold about challenging beliefs instilled in you by your family.

Written in the Planets
Contacts with the Galactic Core have a certain elusive quality: insights can be forgotten if not somehow documented. Mercury's conjunction today could have a more substantial and lasting effect. For one thing, Saturn is nearby. For another, Mercury is slowing down: it will only continue for six days and a couple more degrees before stationing retrograde. It won't reach the Galactic Core again until Jan. 8. If you feel like an inspiration is near but not yet connecting, give it time to come through in full color. You're likely to find it worth the wait.

New Features Added:
Videos for 2018 Saturn, Chiron and Uranus Transits

Dear Friend and Reader:

The Art of Becoming is your 2018 annual reading. This is my 20th time at the rodeo! And that's a good thing, because to write about the transits of the coming year will take experience. If you're new to the discussion of this project, I've linked a letter in the last paragraph.

Planet Waves
Eric Francis.
I've added three new features to The Art of Becoming, for those who pre-order all 12 signs: videos that cover Chiron in Aries, and Aries Chiron returns; Uranus in Taurus, and Uranus oppositions; and Saturn in Capricorn, including those two Saturn return groups (first and second). These cover many age groups and sub-generations.

These videos are included if you pre-order all 12 signs. Then they will be spun off as separate products. They will not be included with post-publication orders, or single-sign orders. Each will be offered separately for $37.37 each.

I've wanted to do transit readings like this for years! One distinction about my astrological career is that rather than predicting transits, I've been listening to my clients tell me the stories of their transits for more than two decades.

The current pre-order price is $99, which includes written readings for all 12 signs, plus the Saturn, Chiron and Uranus video presentations. Those will be published before the written readings, by the way. Note: for Cyber Monday we have rolled back the price to $88 until midnight tonight (Nov. 27).

Delivery is expected in January. That's the time estimate, based on 20 years' experience doing this project. If you're curious to read more about The Art of Becoming, here's a detailed letter describing how I do the readings and what they contain.

And if you have not read your 2017 reading, you may do so here at no charge.

Sign up today. The next price increase will be soon!

Thank you for trusting me as your astrologer, and for participating in Planet Waves.

With love,


Planet Waves

Daily Horoscope for November 27, 2017 | By Eric Francis Coppolino
If Today is Your Birthday
Identify the kinds of doubts that eat away at your confidence, and address them directly. Most people you know are still caught in the same fears they were five or 10 or 20 years ago. You are embarking on a major new phase of your life, and you can only go forward from a place of actual self-esteem. Be bold about challenging beliefs instilled in you by your family. You share a birthday with Bruce Lee, Jimi Hendrix, and Samantha Bond.
Aries
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- Go out of your way to be diplomatic today, and indeed through the whole week. You could take leadership and guide events in a positive direction; or you could lapse in your awareness, and spark needless conflict. Start by making sure you're at peace with yourself, then let that spread.
"The person you thought you were five years ago, one year ago, even yesterday, is not quite the same person you are today, potentially in some profound ways. To the extent that this is shaking up your consciousness and that of the people around you, you simply must develop confidence in yourself."

-- 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 now.
Taurus
Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- A task at work today will require your undivided and mindful attention. It must be done with precision and care, and then you'll need to ensure that, over the next four to five days, things don't get undone. So, do your best; consult with those who know more than you; and make things right.
"If Taureans are competitive, it's primarily with themselves. You never want to do anything worse than you did it last time. Your next effort has to be better. When this is not driving you a little nuts, it can really work for you; and it definitely works for those who benefit from your devoted efforts."

-- 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 now.
Gemini
Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- Put a little flair into a work-related presentation or encounter today, though make sure you're 100% honest. If you're exaggerating, say so. If something is offered for illustration purposes, make that clear. Your imagination is running strong, and your genius streak is in full force.
"Like an aviator or a sailor or both at once, you must study the weather, within you and around you, and have many skills and tools for coexisting with it. You harness your energy from change itself. Knowing yourself is not a matter of having a fixed concept, but rather an honest and ongoing relationship with who you are." 

-- 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 now.
Cancer
Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Be confident about taking on challenging tasks at work this week, though maintain a sense of balance. For example, if you've never done something before, add a little extra time to the schedule. If you get stuck and need help, get that help sooner rather than later. Cooperation is essential.
"Whatever you are doing, the essential spirit of your chart is that you define yourself. You set your mission; you establish your reputation; you are the master of the experiment. If you want to accomplish anything beyond the routine level of success, that also entails the highest level of self-responsibility and inner authority."

-- 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 now.
Leo
Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- If an important discussion has stalled out, be patient. Give a partner or loved one time to respond, and to approach you with what they want to say. If this goes on for a couple of days, remind them that you're available for a conversation. If that doesn't work, gently bring up the subject yourself.
"You are now in a moment where you get to review, rethink and recreate just about anything you want. This may involve any facet of your life. You have the opportunity to work from the roots of your existence upward, and outward. For now, stay close to the ground and work from your core reality."

-- 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 now.
Virgo
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- It matters not whether others are truthful or forthcoming with you. All that matters is that you are in touch with reality. Don't be distracted or confused by anyone's amnesia, wishful thinking or colorful storytelling abilities. Stay in touch with your actual feelings, whatever they are.
"Let everything point you back to you, as the focal point of your existence. This will enhance your capacity for relationships rather than diminish it. The more solidly you are present for yourself, the more solid you can be for others. But that's really beside the point; focusing your intimacy with yourself is its own reward."

-- 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
Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- Pay careful attention to your environment, which basically means how you feel when you walk into a room. Make sure you get plenty of fresh air and as much sunshine as you can get this time of year. And if you notice that any people feel toxic, politely slip out and do a disappearing act.
"You may have been looking to the people you relate to directly -- that is, partners of various kinds -- for answers about the changes you're going through. The deeper truth is that something inside you is evolving and growing, and changes to your partnerships are a kind of secondary effect. The sum total is that your circumstances are conspiring for you to be highly self-reliant."

-- 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.
Scorpio
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- Pay attention to a financial matter this week. You may be able to resolve something that's been nagging you for a while. You will need to come 100% out of helpless mode and be open to negotiation. That means a process of give and take that you personally initiate.
"The essence of this message is that you must express your true self in every facet of your being, particularly in the work that you do. The tangible contribution you make to your community and the larger society is your single most dependable way to develop yourself, and to cultivate respect for yourself, and these angles of your chart are coming under strong, creative aspects this year."

Sagittarius Birthdays 2017-18:
How Will You Apply What You've Learned?
Your reading has given direction and meaning on how to proceed, to learn and move forward in these difficult, unsettling times and at the same time, inspiring me to tap into limitless creative gifts. Thank you, Eric; from my heart to your heart."
-- Ann Cortese, B.S., M.P.S.
Dear Friend and Reader:

Undoubtedly you've experienced quite a process of maturation these last three years or so, as you've responded to the need to bring real discipline to each way in which you express yourself in the world. With all hell seeming to break loose lately, it's possible this has been a painful or scary process for you.

Planet Waves
Yet perhaps you've felt more solid within yourself than ever before -- and if you haven't, you still can.

In the coming month, the major force behind that growth process will shift: Saturn leaves your sign next month and enters Capricorn.

You'll get to take all the lessons you've recently learned and apply them in increasingly tangible ways to everything that matters most to you. This includes that most precious of all commodities in today's world: your self-esteem. Then, early next spring, Chiron -- raiser of awareness and magnifier of healing potential -- moves into your fellow fire sign Aries. Aries is your zone of play, creativity, adventurous risk, sex for fun and more.

Being someone with their Sun, rising sign or Moon in Sagittarius, you might feel like you have playful creativity already well covered. But what if it could be even better -- more fun, less guilt or baggage, more fulfilling?

Eric will be exploring the moves of Saturn, Chiron and more (including Uranus entering Taurus) in your 2017-18 Sagittarius Birthday Reading.

Comprising two astrology segments of at least 30 minutes each plus a tarot reading for your year, you can pre-order it now for the lowest price we offer: only $33 for the whole thing. All portions of the reading are recorded in studio-quality audio, and can be downloaded to your favorite device so you can listen as many times as you like throughout the year.

Note that the price of the reading will increase as publication approaches, and then again after it's been released. Planet Waves does not do Black Friday gimmicks, but we do reward you with the best price when you sign on early.

You get some of the clearest, most nuanced and jargon-free personal astrology available on the internet. Eric crafts these readings with the best of his life-coaching, cheerleading and problem-solving skills; the sensitivity of his therapy training; his uncanny knack to help you see challenges from a more empowering perspective; and with the kind of everyday, practical inspiration you can use immediately.

What more do you need to steer your life through the end of 2017 and into a new year?

Yours & truly,

Amanda Painter
Planet Waves Astrology Editor

P.S. Do you always forget your favorite Sagittarius friends' birthdays due to holiday distractions? Give the gift of the 2017-18 Sagittarius Birthday Reading today, and the thought may count more than ever.



Sagittarius
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- You think the best approach is a consistent strategy or method; however, you're just as likely to get your answer in a flash of intuition. Yet intuition is often untrustworthy and, at best, it's subtle. You will need to experiment, but listen to all sides of your mind. Get them working together.
"You will thrive if you maintain a spirit of exploration and play in the work that you do. You might explore the idea that no matter what you do, you're doing the same thing: expressing your energy and love. If you discover that you don't feel so energetic or so loving, that's the time to consider why you're doing it. However, remember, many facets of your current astrology call for patience."

-- 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 now.
Capricorn
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- You must be decisive, and yet carefully check to ensure there's not a trace of self-destructive impulse in any choice you make. That doesn't mean refusing to take risks; it's about the kinds of risks, your motives for taking them, and your probability of success. Pay close attention.
"One thing to remember is that your integrity is not linked to your being unchanging. In fact, your integrity is about your ability to change in helpful ways, and not to resist what you need the most. As well, you must be honest with yourself and with others about your uncertainty. It's all too tempting, in times of profound change, to attempt to cling to some form of fundamentalism or false security."

-- 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 now.
Aquarius
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Be careful with money today. Something you think is worth a great deal might not be worth so much, and you might find it cheaper in a few days. As for something you're offering, such as for sale, or to a client, give it a day or two before you finalize your asking price, and then stick to it.
"If you find some material you must confront, summon the might of Pluto to help you work through the details. When you discover that you're carrying around material from one or more of your ancestors, notice what it is, and offer it back to them. One thing you have going for you now is a rather hot spiritual fire burning. This is an excellent opportunity to burn off karma."

-- 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 now.
Pisces
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Present yourself exactly the way you want to be seen. It will help if there's some truth to the image you're projecting, because you will soon enough have to live up to what you say. However, you have lots of room to be creative, and to add color, feeling and tone to who you really are.
"When you look at these years in retrospect, they will clearly be a 'before and after' time. There are likely to be focal points of that transition; you may have experienced many 'befores' and 'afters', which add up to nothing less than a complete transformation in the form of embodying your own existence. This has taken many shapes, and in truth it's a process that, once ignited, keeps on going."
