Horoscopes: Verses set to music

Horoscopes:
Verses set to music
By Imhotep
November ushers in good news. Milk this month for all its worth, my dear Rams, as people born under the Cardinal Fire sign of Aries (21 Mar-21 Apr) are sometimes called. So take advantage of the cosmic confluence. How often do all the celestial elements come together so perfectly? The stars are pulling for you, so make sure you ask for what you want. The sky's the limit, my dear Rams. Love beckons.
It may be a little much to begin reciting love poetry out loud, but there is nothing wrong with reading a little Shakespeare at your desk. A sonnet will inspire you this month. Listen to the lyrics.
Speaking of words, yours will carry an amazing amount of weight now. Your wish will be your friends' and companions' desire. People will do as you tell them, and there's nothing that pleases a Ram more.
Who wants to focus on the here and now, anyway. Go ahead and let your mind wander. Let your imagination drift away and see where it takes you. Listen to the music of the spheres. The adventures of your mind could lead you to enjoyable earthly encounters.
Having said that, there's nothing you enjoy more than the solid grounded feeling that comes from being absolutely sure you're loved. Doesn't matter whether it arrives via a friend, relative or a lover. Well, here it comes. Enjoy.
Forget about cocooning, my dear Bulls, as people born under the Fixed Earth sign of Taurus (22 Apr-22 May) are sometimes called. You are a total butterfly now, entrancing, gorgeous and light as air. It is the perfect mode for socialising, not to mention flirting. It is up to you where you alight next.
Love is in the air. Communication and romance are both very much favoured for you at the moment, my dear Bulls. November is an exciting time for you, too. Pry your heart open in the middle of the month. And, open your mind to the myriad possibilities for positive change. The stars say you are sitting pretty by the end of the month. Live it up.
Speak your mind -- or show what's on it in some more interesting, subtler way. So if you're not in the mood to banter, don't try to pretend you are. You will only leave others wondering what you really meant by that.
Words, words and more words. You have been dealing with nothing else for weeks and you've just about had it -- but you can't dismiss the subject yet. Someone needs an answer and you're the only person who can provide it. Go on... give.
Make yourself over. Go through your closet and donate any clothes you do not wear. Sell those possessions you never use and get rid of any clutter that surrounds you. Give. That has been the missing ingredient.
Part of you, my dear Twins, as people born under the Mutable Air sign of Gemini (23 May-22 Jun) are sometimes called, wants to walks away and save yourself. While the other part is convinced that you could turn this situation around if you had enough time. Just as you're about to decide, the other party will end up seeing things from your own point of view.
Keep those tissues handy, especially if you're spending time in the vicinity of someone with whom you share more than just casual memories. It's okay. Tears are nature's way of reminding us that we're primarily emotional creatures.
You are usually fairly comfortable with ambiguity, but right now something in the realm of romance may have you downright bewildered. Be straight-up about your puzzlement, at least with yourself: then you can move forward. Those Twins who are in long-term relationships might become more acutely aware of the need to strengthen a promising relationship in the weeks ahead.
If you are single, my dear Twins, you shall also enjoy and plan ahead. Your illusions are very pretty indeed, but if you can push them aside -- just for a moment -- you'll see some equally lovely real-deal romantic opportunities.
