PLANETARY EVENTS
Nov. 24: Mercury enters Sagittarius
BEST DAYS: While there are other days during this time frame that are fine, these are the best of the bunch. What do I mean by the best? The energy is flowing, the moon isn't void and there's a greater likelihood for happy and/or productive outcomes.
Nov. 22, 27, 28
BEST AVOIDED: The energies on these days aren't favorable for new ventures or any activity where you want or need a definite result. If you must schedule something, you may have to think on your feet, or there may be a need for patience or flexibility.

NOTABLE ASPECTS
Thursday, Nov. 25 (Thanksgiving)
The transiting Moon strikes a somber note when it opposes Saturn, but since it occurs from roughly 3:00-4:00 AM EST, most of you will probably sleep right through it. For those who are early risers, night owls or live in distinctly different time zones than New York, this energy could feel a bit heavy. If something has been weighing on your mind, or if you're feeling a bit pressed to get things done, this influence is likely to magnify the situation. The key to handling this energy is to be aware of this possibility and not let it get the better of you. Fortunately, the influence itself is brief, and once it passes you should feel lighter.
On a different note, later on (9:00-10:00 AM EST) an unexpected disruption connected to a family member, or alternatively a domestic mishap, could test your patience and/or trigger a brief emotional outburst that could set a negative tone for the day. Should you find yourself feeling testy, remind yourself that you have control over how you react, take a deep breath (or several as the case may be) and know that as the influence passes, so will your level of irritability.
Finally, from 8:00-9:00 PM the transiting Moon (emotions) will square (provoke) Mars, an influence that often coincides with strong emotional reactions. This can be anything from jumping to your feet and enthusiastically (Mars) cheering as your favorite football team scores to reacting with anger (also Mars) to someone's comment. Should it be the latter, know that since the Moon will also be making a quincunx (uncomfortable) to Venus (relationships), it could create some awkward moments.
On a totally different note, this transit could coincide with a brief bout of stomach (Moon) inflammation (Mars) as a result of indulging (Venus) in too much food or drink.
Sunday, Nov. 28: Mercury conjunct the Sun
Whether you're writing, painting, speaking, teaching, negotiating or brainstorming, this influence can help you express yourself. The only caveat is that given the egocentric nature of this planetary combination, you may need to make a conscious effort to be aware of other people's needs.
