This year, Thanksgiving Day, a US national holiday, coincides with Red Planet Day, a date to celebrate all things Mars. Since Mars can represent anger and competition, how does this fit into traditional themes of kindness and gratitude? Interestingly, although family gatherings are wonderful, they can sometimes put us on edge! As Mars slows down retrograde while aligning with the Sun, we can find ways to share warmth and kindness by honoring our true feelings. Check your horoscope today to see what the stars have in store for you.
Aries (March 21 – April 20)
We all have the power to change the lives of others for the better. We can make someone’s dream come true. There is always something we can do for those around us and something we can share. But, when we are struggling to meet our own needs, then why try? Because, what we give, we receive in some mysterious way. Today, with your ruler, Mars, aligned with the Sun, if you want something, the way to get it is to be generous to someone else.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21)
Imagine you are a physicist investigating a complex problem. You spent a lot of time figuring it out. And one day, Eureka!, genius brings the answer to your mind. You write it down, but then you get distracted and forget it. How strange that would be! You worked hard; That formula needs to be used. Today they remind you of a great idea you put away. Time to take it back, refresh it and put it into practice
Gemini (May 22 – June 22)
There are some people we find difficult to communicate with. No matter how much we try to explain, we feel like they don’t understand us. It’s possible, of course, that they feel the same way about us. In an ideal world, intelligent and sensitive people would share information readily, but this is not always the case. Your ruler, now retrograde, makes you more aware of misunderstandings. However, it gives you a chance to solve it. The key is patience.
Cancer (June 23 – July 23)
You are just one of eight billion people on this planet. So what is the purpose of others? What should they do here? And what are the chances of finding someone who sees the world the way you do? More than you think. Now it is difficult for you to convince yourself. But if you’re tolerant of someone’s difference of opinion today, you’ll discover surprising shared interests and understanding. A mutual and perceptive relationship can develop.
LEO (July 24 – August 23)
It is wonderful to know that there is hope on the horizon. But the problem with horizons is that they always seem far away. In your world, you know how things should be and even see how they can be achieved in theory. But you feel like you’re not moving forward. Today, since your ruler, the Sun, is in harmony with Mars, the planet of energy, you will find it easier to make changes that produce real results. With enthusiasm, you can make a real difference.
Virgo (August 24 – September 23)
When television and movies were black and white, shades of gray were better understood. Today, with neon lights and bright colors, we are less aware of subtleties. We hope everything is clear visually and verbally. Even though your ruler, the planet of wisdom, is retrograde, you’re reflecting deeply on something that others don’t seem to think about. This will lead you to an important realization to make an important decision.
Libra (September 24 – October 23)
We know that we must conserve energy. While some of the planet’s resources are depleting, others, such as kindness, inspiration and compassion, are far more abundant than we realize. With so much negativity, it’s easy to think they’re in short supply, but that’s not the case. Today, if you display these qualities, you will experience more of them. Trust in the inherent goodness of the universe and you will see clear evidence that it is looking out for you. Think positive.
Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)
You are handling a delicate situation that requires careful adjustment. It is so balanced that any movement can tilt it to one extreme. From your position, you focus on an asymmetry that you need to correct. You’re tempted to lean in the opposite direction, but you run the risk of unbalancing him even more. With Mars slow to retrograde, your actions should be short and gentle. Proceed with caution.
Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)
Your ruler, Jupiter, is known as the “seeker of truth”. This explains your adventurous spirit and your openness to new experiences. You know that truth is, to some extent, subjective. If you distrust someone’s version of events, remember that some truths are relative. You are dealing with a complex, emotionally charged problem. Be humble in your feedback rather than critical and a door to inspiring insight will open.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)
Imagine hypnotizing people to do what you want: just by lowering your voice you can go out of their way to help them. Without manipulation, you now have access to such effects. Venus in your sign gives you the ability to express yourself in a way that builds support. But to use this gift, you must make sure you focus on things that benefit both others and yourself.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 19)
We’ve all seen action movies where characters perform incredible feats: jumping off skyscrapers, driving at breakneck speeds or fighting villains. Many of those scenes are the work of doubles. Now, you face a challenge that requires mental courage. It would be easier if someone else did it for you, but it’s your life. Not only can you manage it… once you start, you’ll enjoy it too!
Pisces (February 20 – March 20)
Our ability to succeed depends on the goals we set for ourselves. Dreaming big doesn’t guarantee we’ll get everything, but a clear purpose helps us move forward. If you secretly doubt that you’ve made the right choice, those insecurities will manifest as obstacles. Check your answers today. If an option doesn’t seem ideal, that doesn’t mean it’s second-rate. If this is your only option, then this is the perfect one.
