Ah, November!  What’s not to love about this month, other than the fact that it is mostly ruled by emotional, alluring, poisonous animals?  That’s right; I’m talk to you, dear Scorpio.  Happy birthday, Scorpy; or depending on the time that you’re reading this, happy belated.

If you ask any non-biased astrologer, they’ll tell you that Scorpio is known to be viewed by people in two extreme lights.  To some, they are ambitious go-getters that go and get and bring it back around town.  However, to signs that they don’t mesh well with, they are the bloody devil; which brings us to the mythology of Scorpio.

The name Scorpio may sound similar to the word ‘scorpion,’ but in several mythologies, Scorpio is represented by the serpent.  According to Native American astrology, the spirit animal for people born under Scorpio is the snake.  Even in biblical mythology, the representation of the serpent shows how Scorpio is perceived by others.  In the Garden of Eden, Eve is persuaded by Lucifer disguised as a snake.  What this says about Scorpio is that they can be seen in two different ways.  To some, they are charismatic and charming, but to others, Scorpio is a liar.  The serpent is also seen as a symbol for wisdom in some ancient mythologies.

According to Greek mythology, Orion proclaimed himself the best hunter ever and boasted that he could kill every beast on Earth.  When the goddess of the hunt, Artemis, and her mother, Leto, heard this, they were not happy.  So, they sent a scorpion to battle him, and the scorpion killed Orion.  Zeus honored the small creature in the stars for slaying “the best hunter ever.”  This story says that Scorpio shouldn’t be underestimated and will surprise you.

Now, let’s get on to the predictions.

Aries (March 21-April 19)
Relationships will be a main focus for you this month, Aries.  Your relationships will involve someone from high social status or someone who can help you advance your own social status.  When it comes to romance, you will be contemplating some huge decisions.  If you are already dating you may be considering a breakup; if you’re single you might want to start something new with someone.  Do whatever is best for you, though.  It’s okay; just be selfish.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Expect to be working with others this month.  Your work will cross paths with other people, Taurus.  In fact, there’s a strong chance that you could be working with someone new.  This collaboration will be strengthened later in the month whenever your creative and expressive juices start flowing more than usual.  Along with your expressive side, if anyone tries to interfere with any personal business, just tell them that they’re full of bull.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Been in a kiddie pool lately, Gemini?  You’ve been pretty shallow lately.  You might have your eye on someone this month.  However, your curiosity questions the reason as to why you’re interested in them.  The only reason is because you only see them for what you can see.  You don’t know them as a person yet.  So, channel that curiosity and get to know them.  This could be that start of yet another beautiful friendship for you.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Little Cancer crabs, you will be having a lot of feelings (no shock there) this month.  You will feel the need to be more open than usual with people.  If you’re in a relationship with someone, you’ll be feeling as if it needs more affection.  As far as your friendships go, you’ll be the problem-solver among them.  Your nurturing side will be amplified in November as you will want everything to be joyful.  You will find harmony and sing Kum Ba Yah as long as you remember to play nice.

Leo (July 23-Aug 22)
Your work will shine bright this month, Leo.  Your talents will be shown to the world, which could very possibly lead to a reward.  While you may be a fan of work and personal relationships being separate, unfortunately, that won’t be happening this time around.  Just swallow your pride and admit your deeper feelings to people, even if they might not want to hear it.  Be courageous and you’ll be happy.

Virgo (Aug 23-Sep 22)
No more Mr. Nice Guy for you!  This month you’re going to be very competitive, Virgo.  You will do everything in your power to win.  Go ahead; be as ambitious as you possibly can.  Regardless if you win or not, you can definitely expect to be making memories.  Your achievements and success will be extremely sentimental for you.  This November will be something for you to remember later on.

Libra (Sep 23-Oct 22)
Usually you’re a very social person, Libra, but not this month.  A serious and difficult situation will arise for you.  It could be so bad that you’ll feel the need to put your work on hold.  Work through it; you’re a champion.  This situation for you could also result in a stronger need for you to be alone.  Take as long as you feel you need to get back on your feet.

Scorpio (Oct 23-Nov 21)
You are more intense than ever, Birthday Boys and Girls.  Dear Scorpio, you’ll be feeling very in control this month.  You will deal with jealousy earlier in month, but as long as you are in control, you’ll be fine.  When it comes to your work, some big changes will occur.  Along with those changes, your intense personality will cause you to get really stressed.  Don’t freak out; everything will be okay if you have someone collaborate with you for this work.

Sagittarius (Nov 22-Dec 21)
You feel like it’s your month to heard.  Someone who is very close to you is going through a very hard time, and you have to help them through it.  While helping them through their situations, you face the temptation of imposing your personal opinions onto them.  Your thoughts do matter, Sagittarius, but remember to not view yourself as superior to them.  Instead, view everyone around you as equal to you; they matter just as much as you do.

Capricorn (Dec 22-Jan 19)
November is the month for you to be in your prime.  You will see yourself being a lot more social than you usually are.  Instead of being your typical pessimistic self, you’ll be more sentimental.  After all of your hard work, treat yourself to make this month memorable.  Feel free to focus less on work and more on having fun.  It’s your time to relax and open your eyes to something new or different in life.  Just chill, Capricorn.

Aquarius (Jan 20-Feb 18)
This month is hard for you to get through.  Your free spirit feels like it can’t go where it is meant to be, Aquarius.  You feel more constrained and discouraged than usual.  Add a dose of some humor and optimism and the situation will get better.  You will go through obstacles and tough situations in your relationships and work.  However, through this difficulty, you’ll learn important information that could help you make a big decision towards the end of the month.

Pisces (Feb 19-March 20)
You want a good month?  You better work, Pisces.  This is time for you to give your all.  You feel more competitive than usual.  Your hard work and multiple projects will lead you to gain more popularity and social status.  When it comes to relationships, you feel passionate.  It could go either way: you could either find a new friend or lose one.  If you do lose a friend, understand that there are other fish in the sea.
