Horoscope for Thursday, Nov. 26, 2020

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions from 5:30 to 10 p.m. Chicago time. After that, the moon moves from Aries into Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Possibly there are touchy feelings left over from yesterday, which might account for difficulties dealing with parents, bosses, teachers and the police. These relations could be strained and repressive. Try to give the head honcho a wide berth.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Don’t even go there when it comes to getting involved with arguments about politics, religion and racial issues because you will be squashed. These discussions will be a real downer and a squeeze play for you. Instead, focus on close friends and partners. They’re happy to see you!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Relations with friends and members of groups are still delicate, which is why you might feel discouraged in discussions about how to share or divide something. People in power are not interested in helping. “Elvis has left the building.”

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a poor day to challenge bosses, parents and the police about anything. Be smart and don’t do this. If you do, you will feel diminished by the experience or put down in some way. Instead focus on social outings, sports and fun activities with kids. (“Who wants an ice-cream cone?”)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Discussions about politics, religion and racial issues will be a bummer. Don’t even go there. Instead, focus on family matters, especially to do with home repairs or redecorating projects. This is something that will interest you. It always does.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Discussions about the cost of a social event or the cost or support of kids and their education and their activities will not go well today. You will feel overwhelmed by obstacles and people who don’t agree with you, especially authority figures. (Time to send out for dark chocolate.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This is a poor day for an important discussion with an older family member or an authority figure about family situations. Whatever happens, you will feel blocked or dismissed or squelched. You might want to explore money-making ideas or shopping therapy? If so, check moon alert.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Discussions related to your health, or a pet, or your job, might discourage you today. Rules and regulations will block your efforts. [“Must be legal drinking age. Please drink responsibly.”] Fortunately, with Mercury and Venus in your sign, you will be friendly and helpful.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Tension related to social outings, planning vacations or something to do with sports or kids might discourage you today. Or perhaps an authority figure will try to restrict your actions or make you feel diminished. No fun!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be accommodating with family members today to avoid a squeeze play, which is likely. Criticisms, restrictions, obstacles and reasons you cannot do something will be par for the course. Instead, focus on involvement with a friend or a group because this will please you!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your day-to-day interactions with others might discourage you today. Someone might put you down or be critical. Don’t take this personally. Instead, make an appeal to a boss, parent or someone in authority because they are on your side. That’s what you want — someone on your side. (It’s what we all want.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Squabbles about money and possessions might occur. Or something else might make you feel broke. Instead, talk to people from other cultures or focus on learning something new or traveling somewhere because if you can expand your horizons, you’ll be happier! “I need to get outta Dodge!”

If Your Birthday Is Today

Singer, performer Tina Turner (1939) shares your birthday. You are brave and persevering. You are a seeker, especially a spiritual seeker who is also practical and down-to-earth. Exciting changes and opportunities await you this year. Count on new adventures! If you can, explore opportunities to travel. Do whatever you can to expand your world through learning. Welcome change! Your personal freedom is your goal this year.
