As you begin November, you will be looking forward to a social event that will have all the romantic elements you love - superb food, soft lighting, music, fragrant flowers, and a reason to wear your favorite outfit. The full moon, November 6, will create this opportunity for a bewitching evening, and because all full moons have an area of influence of several days, your event is likely to occur over the weekend of November 8-9. This invitation will be special, so be sure to attend. You might also want to consider giving a party of your own, and it would be just as successful.

When it comes to love, you seem to be waiting for something to happen. If you are married, you may be hoping to find the right time to have a child, and if you are single, you seem to be waiting for your relationship to move forward. You have been in limbo, due to Saturn's long journey through your sector of true love (since October 2012), but that will soon end with Saturn's departure next month on December 23. You are ready for progress, and if you don't see it, you will need to have a good answer why things can't move forward now. Your days of waiting are coming to an end, for your patience has been strained and in short supply.

November 18 is due to be a tough day, when the mighty Sun will meet with cold taskmaster planet Saturn. This is a pairing of opposites, fire (Sun) and ice (Saturn), and can make you work too hard or be overly sensitive to criticism. If you feel a bit deflated, tired, or a little pessimistic about things, know that in a day or two those feelings will pass. Take the pieces of the criticism that you hear (if any is offered), using what is helpful, but discard the rest. No criticism should ever be allowed to impinge on your estimation of self-worth.

Be careful too on November 12 when you might want to challenge a VIP's choices. The dictates won't make sense to you, but you'd be best to let it go. Mars will be at very hot angles to Uranus, planet of unexpected outcomes, so this is a debate you would never be able to win.

At work, a lot of new business is about to walk through the door, as a result of the new moon, November 22. You may work in a seasonal business, for the coming year-end holidays would be reason enough for the flurry of activity that will suddenly be stirred up at work. Your presence will be needed to oversee others for the duration of 2014, at the very least. This new moon will be conjunct Saturn, indicating you will be putting in long hours and must oversee much detail. You might have to hire new recruits to handle some of what must be done, so file resumes that cross your desk in case you need to hire someone quickly. With Venus conjunct this new moon, you are likely to find friendly warm workers who will take their job seriously.

This same new moon, November 22, would be a superb one to begin one of your fitness resolutions for the New Year. You will have the perfect aspects on November 22 and in the ten days that follow, but you won't have nearly the cosmic help in January. If you have fallen off the fitness wagon, check with your doctor, and simply start small. In astrology, the date you choose to begin is vital, for it is when you give birth to your new venture. You need not give hours of time to the gym (nor would that necessarily be productive) - just a short amount of time would qualify as a start. If you begin now, you will give 2015 a great, healthy start. This is the gift you can to give to yourself in November.

On November 6, the full moon in Taurus will appear - get ready to enter a very social period. Parties, dinners, meet-ups at the museum - think of things you'd love to do. You will enjoy this breezy, easy new trend.

Don't meet with any high level people over November 12, when Mars in hard angle to Uranus will make this a day when surprise events will come out of left field, and they won't be ones you like. You will be focused on career. Competitors will be fierce - keep an eye on them.

A love relationship might be quite depressing on November 17-18, due to Saturn conjunct the Sun. Alternatively, you may be seeing the world through a dark lens. Watch your love relationship, child, or work you need to do for a creative project.

You will impress the VIPs at the top, for on November 26 you will likely get outstanding praise for work well done. A promotion may come up in late March or April as a result of your fine performances.
