A big shift in focus takes place this week as the Sun moves into your income sector, Sagittarius, on Monday. You are now in an awesome place to hear the sound of crisp greenbacks rustle as you fold them into your wallet.
That’s in part because serious Saturn, the planet of hard work, has been in this part of the sky for the past year. It’s the ringed planet’s first visit to this sector in 30 years, and it will remain here for another year. But now that the Sun has joined Saturn (and intelligent Mercury too), you can really make headway with your financial goals.
This isn’t about money you inherit, win or are awarded (through a court case, for example) but money you earn via your own efforts. Not surprisingly, self-worth is also found in this part of the sky, as are savings plans and good fiscal habits.
Jupiter, the planet of optimism and good fortune, has been situated in your hush-hush twelfth house since September, so it’s quite possible that you’ve been working on a major project behind the scenes–a job hunt, a book deal, or adding new revenue streams to your company.
Tuesday is stellar for working on these projects and for holding confidential discussions about your next step. This may be a holiday week in the US, but your nose will be to the grindstone. As a matter of fact, Wednesday is the perfect time to sit back with a cup of coffee and really brainstorm which way you want to go.
Quick thinking Mercury and Saturn meet up then in a conjunction, a powerful aspect that bodes well for making long term plans. While you’re at it, examine your budget, spending habits and where you currently are with saving more.
Then we get to Thursday, when a tough aspect between Jupiter and Pluto indicates that someone could be difficult to read, perhaps even playing head games. This is Thanksgiving, which means that you could be surrounded by family, friends or a lover, so any of these folks could be involved.
You may be feeling open, ready to share your thoughts and feelings with others, but the problem is that they may not be so forthcoming. Be careful as to what you reveal, and be prepared to deal with pushback.
But Friday brings a super opportunity to have a serious talk with someone as Venus conjuncts Pluto. You may need to take ownership of an issue or be the grown-up here, but if you don’t get this stuff out on the table it will fester. Try to deal with facts as your intuition could be off.
Saturday may bring a “come to Jesus” moment when you look down at your waistline and realize that it hasn’t gotten bigger just from eating a few slices of pumpkin pie. Uranus will light a fire under your tush to get moving with an exercise routine, and the new moon on the 29th will help you develop solid new habits.
