Your Birthday for November 17, 2024

Your Birthday | November 17th, 2024

Born today, you are one of the most colorful and vibrant individuals born under your sign, and you possess a lust for life that is likely unmatched by any other Scorpio native -- and that is quite rare among those born under any other sign. Once you get going, you are not to be stopped, not because your will is so strong, but rather because it is such a pleasure to watch you do the things you do that others simply won't stand in your way! Indeed, you are likely to be widely imitated, but no one can truly adopt all that you have going for you -- in particular, your positive outlook and your enthusiasm for pursuing your goals and getting things done. You never let the daily routine get you down.

You have been endowed with much that others find almost irresistibly attractive, and you're sure to have more than your share of admirers following in your wake at every point in your life. You aren't the kind, however, to indulge in brief love affairs; you want the real thing, and when you get it, you'll do all you can to ensure it lasts a lifetime.

Also born on this date are: Lauren Hutton, actress; Daisy Fuentes, actress and TV personality; Danny DeVito, actor and producer; Lorne Michaels, producer; Gordon Lightfoot, singer and songwriter; Martin Scorsese, filmmaker.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Avoid being political in your response to someone who is trying to be as transparent as possible. Be direct and speak the truth.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The contribution you're trying to make today may not be understood by others, and there's the problem! You must explain things more clearly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Very soon you'll likely realize that it's time to alter your strategy regarding a difficulty at the workplace. Such change can be valuable.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- The balance between getting what you need and going after what you want may be trickier than usual today. Focus on the former first.

Your Birthday for November 16, 2024

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 16th, 2024

Born today, you are one of the most solid, steadfast, hardworking, dedicated and even-tempered individuals born under your sign, and this makes it possible for others to mistake you at times for anything but a Scorpio native, for you never seem beholden to your emotions or buffeted this way and that by the winds of fate. Indeed, you are so self-controlled that others may consider it a kind of challenge, even a game, to rile you up in some way -- but it's not likely to happen, for you can sense when your emotions are rising to the surface and you are quick to employ any and all means to keep them from getting the better of you. Indeed, you have much to teach others about the value of self-control!

There is, perhaps, a kind of darkness into which you may descend now and then which seems to cause a kind of malaise from which it can be difficult to recover. It is at such times that you must -- and do -- rely on those closest to you to help you see the light. Friends, family members and significant others can all be trusted to help you when you're in need of assistance.

Also born on this date are: Oksana Baiul, Olympic figure skater; Lisa Bonet, actress; Martha Plimpton, actress; Burgess Meredith, actor.

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 17

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The rules you choose to follow today may separate you from the crowd, and you're going to have to guard against any unexpected conflict.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You've been undervaluing something that has been making things possible for you for quite a while. Today, you may recognize its importance.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may find it difficult to persuade another that the path you've chosen is the right one, and you may have to go it alone as a result.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Someone else's words or actions may disappoint you today, but you mustn't let them slow you down in any way. Other barriers demand attention.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- What you're doing is getting results, but you may not know why -- or how long this period of productivity will last. Is that necessary?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may be heading into a critical endeavor with blinders on, and that's likely to be very risky indeed. Be sure you can see where you're headed!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You don't have to pay any attention to rumors that are being shared by others. Stick to your game plan and focus on what you know to be true.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- The bargain you are attempting to strike with someone else continues to elude you today. You may be missing something fundamental.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- An idea contributed by someone you find difficult to work with is still worth some exploration and study today. It may actually work out!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Going to extremes today won't be good for anyone, so you'll want to follow a course that allows you to use moderation at all times.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- The problem you're trying to solve is not as complicated as you think. You may find that the problem you're encountering is self-made.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You mustn't spill the beans about something you weren't supposed to know about in the first place. Don't speak when you should listen.

Your Birthday for November 15, 2024

by Stella Wilder

Your Birthday | November 15th, 2024

Born today, you have a singular vision that you will cultivate throughout your lifetime, and wherever you go and whatever you do, you will surely think, say and do things that are not only true to it, but that also allow it to grow and develop as you collect knowledge and experience. You are not one to dive into books necessarily, for you tend to prefer hands-on experience to absorbing information presented to you by others, and you have been known to risk everything to pursue something that may or may not pay off in the end -- but, to you, the pursuit itself, the journey you take as a result, is the most important thing.

Were it not for your tremendous sense of self and your almost superhuman self-control, you would be at the mercy of a constant rush of emotional currents that run just beneath the surface. Fortunately, however, you know how to channel these feelings into positive and productive endeavors about which you are nothing if not passionate!

Also born on this date are: Georgia O’Keeffe, artist; Petula Clark, actress and singer; Sam Waterston, actor; Ed Asner, actor; Joseph Wapner, TV judge; Felix Frankfurter, Supreme Court Justice.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The knowledge you gain today needn't be put to use immediately in order to be valuable. It can do you a great deal of emotional good.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You are determined to satisfy your curiosity about someone else's seemingly inexplicable behavior. Don't cross the line, however!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Certain instructions and warnings meant solely for you must be followed and heeded today if you're going to make progress as scheduled.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The messages you send today are likely to carry more information than intended. Take care that you don't reveal something best held back.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You make a great deal of progress today simply by sticking to what you know best and following guidelines that have worked for you in the past.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Are you afraid of attracting attention or of putting yourself in a vulnerable position? Something is holding you back right now.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Focus on what has happened in close proximity to you in recent days, and you'll come to understand why you feel as you do about certain key issues.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can explore much more than originally thought today, provided your schedule is flexible and you are able to take certain side trips.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- What you do independently today will benefit others as well, and you still won't have to collaborate if you aren't in the mood.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Despite telling someone that you'd be able to give them the time they'd asked for today, you may have to opt out for sudden personal reasons.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- What's going on near you that has you in the state you're in right now? This may be overreaction, but it won't let up until you regain control.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may not want to believe what you read or hear today, but the facts are clear, and you won't be able to refute them for very long.
