November 14
The close proximity of Sun and Mars will add to your influence and authority during the coming year. You will feel much more inspired and optimistic about your future. Much of what happens over the next year will depend on your capability to conduct yourself. There will be ups and downs but as long as you maintain responsibility for your own actions, you are not likely to cut a sorry figure.

Your greatest strength is your efficiency and commitment towards work.

November 15
With a new moon sighted by inimical stars, things are not always what they seem. It may look as if other people are inconsiderate, unkind and are in the habit of ducking out of engagements or just not turning up. It can give you a few anxious moments but it can be a blessing in disguise also.

You can change your plans accordingly and could forget about it. It is a matter of applying common sense also than taking it so seriously.

November 16
You are entering one of the most ambitious and productive phases of your life. Your stars present a very rosy picture of your achievements. Although this is a most opportune occasion for taking risks, the other factors in your solar chart indicate that the tendency to rush through in important matters should be avoided.

The right approach in such a situation is to take every encounter as an opportunity to gain more experience and expertise. In the present, situation ‘slow and steady’ should be your motto.

November 17
Try to find solutions to your personal, social, professional and financial problems. You should be able to resolve outstanding differences and restore harmony without going against your principles. Luck will be on your side.

A majority of your planets are firmly planted in the signs of their choice. This indicates that once you make up your mind, you will stick to your decisions. The more selective you are, the better the outcome will be.

November 18
A sharp escalation in routine expenditure may upset the apple-cart. Your stars could give a big jolt to your financial affairs.

Your expenditure may be more than your income during the first quarter. You may have to live hand to mouth during the second. There is a dire need to realise in all earnestness that you cannot afford luxuries during the third. You will, however, manage to come out of the crisis during the last one.

November 19
This is the right time for you to achieve excellence. There should be no hitch in persuading even difficult people to fall in with your plans. It is for you now to turn your dreams into reality.

For those interested in creative art, it is the right time to win awards and distinctions. Artists and sportsmen will do exceptionally well. Those who are contesting an election could win with a convincing victory from September onwards.

November 20
Your stars have seldom shown such a beneficial and morale boosting configuration. A well-deserved spurt in your earnings is very much on the cards. The first and foremost task before you will be to think in terms of making your future secure rather than running after temporary gains.

A new system will improve your working capacity during the first quarter. March-April are excellent months for gaining success through the good offices of your friends. Beware of taking too many risks during the last phase.
