Your November horoscope, unladylike edition
Not science, and not your mother's astrologer either. Read your sun sign, then your rising sign if you're that girl. Here's what November has in store.
Aries
21 Mar – 19 Apr · fireYou've said yes to three weddings on the same weekend and plan to attend all of them. You will, somehow. Just don't pick a fight with the photographer. Mid-month brings the work win you've been chasing since the monsoon.
Unladylike move: Ask for the credit in the meeting, not after it.
Taurus
20 Apr – 20 May · earthYour comfort zone has a razai, a heater and a bowl of gajar ka halwa. Valid. But someone is about to offer you something new, so say yes before your brain lists eleven reasons to say no.
Unladylike move: Take the second helping without announcing your diet.
Gemini
21 May – 20 Jun · airTwo group chats, four opinions, one you. The gossip comes to you this month, and so does the urge to share it. Pick your audience carefully. A message you've been avoiding needs a reply by the 25th.
Unladylike move: Say "I don't know" out loud and notice how freeing it feels.
Cancer
21 Jun – 22 Jul · waterYou're the one who remembers everyone's food allergies at the family function. This month, someone remembers yours. Let them look after you for once. Home stuff settles after the 20th.
Unladylike move: Leave the dishes for someone else, and skip the guilt.
Leo
23 Jul – 22 Aug · fireThe sangeet stage is calling and you've already picked the song. Of course you have. Work wants your spotlight too, so bring your best idea to the table, not only your loudest one.
Unladylike move: Wear the outfit the aunties will talk about. They'll talk anyway.
Virgo
23 Aug – 22 Sep · earthYour to-do list has a to-do list. November asks you to drop one thing on purpose and watch the world carry on. A friend needs your honest advice, and this time she'll listen.
Unladylike move: Send the email with the typo and move on.
Libra
23 Sep – 22 Oct · airEveryone wants you to settle their fight, from your cousins to your team. You're good at it, but take a side when it matters. A small splurge feels right around the 22nd.
Unladylike move: Choose yourself first in one decision this week.
Scorpio
23 Oct – 21 Nov · waterBirthday season, queen. You know exactly who forgot, and you'll pretend you didn't notice. A secret comes out this month, and it works in your favour.
Unladylike move: Celebrate yourself loudly, cake and all, without waiting for someone to plan it.
Sagittarius
22 Nov – 21 Dec · fireYour season starts on the 22nd and suddenly every weekend has a plan. A trip idea from months ago comes back. Book it. Money looks better than you think, so check before you panic.
Unladylike move: Travel somewhere alone and post about it after you're back.
Capricorn
22 Dec – 19 Jan · earthAppraisal talks are coming and your numbers are ready, colour-coded. Good. Now practise saying the figure without softening it. Family wants more of your time, so give them a Sunday, not every evening.
Unladylike move: Negotiate, then don't apologise for it.
Aquarius
20 Jan – 18 Feb · airYou have a theory about your situationship and a slide deck to back it up. Maybe close the deck. A new friend this month gets your humour straight away.
Unladylike move: Skip one wedding you don't want to attend, politely and without a fake fever.
Pisces
19 Feb – 20 Mar · waterYou cried at a car ad again, and that's fine. This month your soft side helps at work, because you read the room better than anyone. Creative plans click after the 18th.
Unladylike move: Show someone the thing you made, even if it isn't finished.
Written for fun. Your stars are not a doctor, a lawyer or your mother.
