Happy birthday for Monday, Nov. 13, 2017:
This year you are very active with your friends, especially when it comes to pushing a long-term aspiration to the forefront. You will achieve that goal, and many more. If you are single, know what you want from a relationship, and then go for it. You are likely to meet someone special in the next 12 months. If you are attached, the two of you benefit from spending more one-on-one time together. Both you and your sweetie flourish in this atmosphere. LIBRA helps you to achieve exactly what you want.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

No one can deny your hard work, and today is no exception. Optimism radiates from you, but you still could be met with some negativity. Explaining why you view a situation a certain way might not get it through to the other party just yet. Tonight: Respond to a loved one’s request.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

If someone blocks your path, your ingenuity will motivate you to jump right over the hurdle. You might not even notice this obstacle, as your creativity is spontaneous and kicks in with ease. Opt for a long workout at the gym. Tonight: Know when enough is enough.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You could feel stuck in the morning, but by the late afternoon, you’ll sprint from one project or conversation to the next, and so on. Clearly, others appreciate your mental dexterity and seek you out. Tonight: Reach out to a loved one at a distance whom you rarely see.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You come from a secure space, as others demonstrate compassion and interest in what you are up to. Though you might be moody, try to express more sensitivity toward others. You have a very nurturing nature, and those around you appreciate it. Tonight: Home is where the heart is.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Listen to what is being shared. You sense some changes happening in the present situation. Don’t try to clarify what is going on; instead, simply enjoy your interactions. Understand that one person, possibly a child, could be unusually difficult. Tonight: Whatever your heart desires.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You have the ability to manage a personal matter much differently from how you have in the recent past. A matter involving your home or property seems off. Know that it’s not a good day to push others to go along with your plans. Tonight: A little self-discipline goes a long way.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You could feel out of sorts when dealing with people in general. A lack of connection distorts an important piece of information, but you will hear it clearly soon. Reach out to a friend who seems withdrawn. Handle a hassle involving communication. Tonight: Off to the gym.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You could be tired of continuing at the same pace. Remain positive when putting in the effort to move forward with a key goal. A financial problem will eliminate itself, given time. Extremes seem to be the very nature of the day. Tonight: If you can, get some extra sleep.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Demands surround you. Behind all the burdens lies a golden opportunity. It might take you a while to sort them out and decide where you want to place your energy. You have a strong sense of what you want and expect. Tonight: Loosen up with friends or loved ones.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Expand your mind to see both sides of an argument. You tend to favor more practical and logical thinking, but you also see the benefit of coming from an emotional perspective. A meeting could be more important than you realize. Tonight: All eyes turn to you once more.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You could be looking at a situation differently from how a partner sees it. You might feel as if you can’t get past a problem. Remain positive, and don’t let this person get too carried away. Stay centered and focused. Tonight: Suddenly, you see the way out of a conflict.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You need to defer to someone else for now. Let this person see the natural results of his or her decision. Understand that he or she might need/demand close interaction with you during this process. A friend trusts you more than you realize. Tonight: Catch up on news over dinner.
