We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible, the best sex positions for each sign, or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based Astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each day. Today's topic: your daily horoscope for November 29, 2016.
The headline for today is the New Moon in Sagittarius. Since New Moons mark periods where we should look to initiate new projects or start fresh in a particular area in our lives (based on where the moon touches our birth charts), a New Moon in expansive Sagittarius calls us to welcome changes most concerned with our biggest dreams and a need to explore. As one of Sagittarius' gifts is its eternal optimism, this Moon reminds us to find the silver lining in situations where there seemingly is none. However, with this Moon headed for a square off with Neptune, the planet of illusions, we have to make sure that our hopefulness in a situation isn't a case of blind faith or refusing to see what's in front of us. Though when Venus (relationships, values, money) in clear-headed Capricorn squares off with freedom loving Uranus in Aries later this afternoon, we should be able to tell what's real and what's not because inauthenticity won't feel as satisfying as it used to.
Read below to see what today's stars mean for your sign.
And remember to tune into Bustle's weekly horoscopes video live on Facebook every other Monday at 4 p.m. ET for a rundown of your weekly horoscope.
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
You seem to know which direction you should head, so why are you ignoring the message? If you are seeking true freedom to do what you want, you"ll have to pay attention to what you've been refusing to see.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
It's time to break free of people in your life that are no longer worth your time and energy. Clearing a path for good things to enter your life starts with your relationships. Connect with people who share and support your vision.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Sometimes the relationship that you think you want isn't what you always get. Not that you should settle, but could you be passing up something or someone genuine for a fantasy or ideal? It's time for a new perspective on partnership.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Is it time to face facts when it comes to a job or health situation? While tackling the issue head on may feel like damper on your parade, know that you are giving yourself more freedom and power to achieve the outcome you actually want.
Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
The romance that you crave now is possible if you allow yourself to release someone or an ideal about love that is working against your best interest. Similarly, when it comes to your talents — you didn't get these gifts to squander them.
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
The cosmos gives you the opportunity to start fresh when it comes to your home and family life. Though as you move forward know that wherever you choose to go now, there you are. If you want change, you'll have to start with you.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)
Sitting back and letting things happen is not necessarily an option right now as the Universe is calling you to be more intentional about what you say and do. While not everything is under your control you do have ability to say yes (and no) to the right things.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)
Your focus today is reflect on ways that you may be blocking your abundance. Do you tend to give until no more is left? Or do you tend to have little faith that what you want is always available to you? It may be time to let go of what you've thought about money.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
It's time for a fresh start Sag, especially where it pertains to how and where you see yourself. If there was anyone who can't afford to stay stuck in the same place, it's you. Dust off your bow and arrow and pick your next target.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)
Get out of your head for a minute. If you must be in your thoughts, at least make it productive. That means that meditation or mindfulness exercises are what your brain needs right now. Have your thoughts work for you instead of against you.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
It's time for you to get clear on what you want for the short and long-term. No use in just scraping by now, hoping things will get better when you have the power to do that right now. Take a honest look at what needs to be done and do it.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Good things are ready to take off for you professionally, if you can just trust yourself. Though there may have been many to come through to do what you're aiming for, recognize they've never done it in the way that you can.
