Horoscopes: Monday, Nov. 20, 2023

ARIES (March 21-April 19). While your natural inclinations in the moment can certainly bring a situation into order, things turn out even better if you think ahead. You’re brilliant as you anticipate problems, not as a pessimist, but as a master.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It’s normal to feel a little lost when every option is a road you’ve never been down to a destination uncertain. Trust your choice and life’s process. This is how you’ll get to know an exciting and different side of yourself.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The action veers out of your control, but delightfully so because you’re able to relax and enjoy the ride. You suspect that uncertainty will bring out your best. The adrenaline rush will thrill and focus you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Even though you don’t require the acceptance of others, it feels good to get it. As a result, you’re inclined to be generous with others, and either return the goodwill or pay it forward.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The peace you seek is already within you. You experienced it just this morning, in the moment after you woke up and before you had your first thought of the day. Somewhere in your mind, this silence sits — a pocket of pure potential.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your project is coming together. It seems you have everything you need except time. You’ll get it if you carve it out, claim and protect it. It will happen because you are intentional and proactive.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Change is always happening whether you are in control or not. As any insect inside a chrysalis knows, what’s occurring may feel more messy than miraculous, and yet, on the other side … a wondrous flight.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Communication is your strength today, though conversations may not go as anticipated. It’s a good sign you’re doing it right. Predictable conversation is the result of scripting or speaking without regard to the input of others.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your optimism is warranted. Things are working and will continue to work even better once you make a few minor adjustments. Your whole mind is lit up and ready to figure it out.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Groups change, splinter into factions or reorganize, forming new groups. Knowing the way it is now isn’t how it will always be, you’ll make the most of the current arrangement.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People reciting dogma will have no influence on your decisions because you know that facts aren’t knowledge and knowledge isn’t wisdom. You’ll choose based on what experience has taught you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People will want to be near you, do what you do and know what you know. The funny thing is, this all comes so automatically to you, you may not even be aware of what you’re thinking until you articulate it.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 20). You’ll lavish it on your loved ones and new friends, too — your enchanting ability to make even the most ordinary moments feel extraordinary. Fresh influences will inspire your style, eye for design and appreciation of beauty in its many forms, including the invisible. More highlights: a raise, proud family moments and political gains, too. Leo and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 14, 6, 30, 2 and 11.
