The Sun enters Sagittarius on Nov. 21. This is the time when we are near the end of the year and we can look back and take stock of what we have experienced and accomplished. It is harvest time, both literally and figuratively, and we celebrate Thanksgiving, which is a truly Sagittarian holiday. We give thanks and have gratitude for the abundance that life has bestowed upon us, both material and spiritual. Sagittarius also wants us to review our year and distill wisdom and understanding from our experiences. Reflect on what you have learned so that you can more wisely make plans for the future.

Aries (March 21-April 19) You can gain deeper insight into who you are now. There is an opening to more expanded visions of possibilities, and a recognition on your part of a more elevated sense of being. But there are also some rather intense emotional conflicts that you are dealing with that need to be examined and resolved. Don’t let them hold you back as you move ahead.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) There is an intensity of feelings and emotions that you are dealing with now. Overall you feel good; your heart is open and you are moving ahead dynamically with your life. You have a sense of stability and clarity of mind that supports you in moving forward confidently. But you also feel somewhat restless and you need to develop patience.
