Horoscopes: Friday, Nov. 29, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When the world cranks up the intensity, don’t seek escape; seek perspective. With a vantage and a clear view, it will be easier to decide where to best lend your energy.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Because your heart is big, you move past the wrong someone did you. You will wipe the slate clean. You’ll get your pitch together, suit up, go where there might be opportunity and make friends.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Demanding the impossible sets striving as your standard, reaching as your resting posture and dreaming as your waking duty. It’s not a very relaxing way to live, but it seems to suit you on days like today.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Wanting something badly makes us minimize the negatives and glorify the gains. Take the wanting out of the equation, and suddenly the risk calculation becomes much more accurate.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your ideas are strong. You can revisit, reinterpret and reinvent them, and they’ll continue to breathe life. The proof of this comes today when you take something you’ve been thinking about and apply it to brilliant effect.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The concepts you find simple are challenging to others. Your discretion and patience are signs of your generous spirit. The best teachers never talk down to their students; rather, they invest full attention helping others learn.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Romantic comedy characters are a fantasy, but sometimes people actually seem to spring from the movies and behave as an on-screen rom-com character. Your charm activates, and you are such a person to someone else.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When your options are abundant, each choice you make is more significant. For instance, how you amuse yourself will say something about who you are. Someone is paying attention as they try to know you better.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There are creative, funny, classy and genuinely good people out there — people who match your energy and outlook. One of them will be drawn to your sense of kindness and fun.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Acquired tastes, like coffee or wine, often have a bitterness to them. People can be the same way, and you’ve come to an appreciation for individuals with strident tendencies. They help you appreciate the occasional sweetness.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Most people do what they believe is best at the time, though sometimes poor outcomes come from having nothing better to choose. To provide better choices, in any form, is saintly work.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Someone new will be intrigued by you and want to learn about you, sending you the signals and possibly texts that light you up. The possibilities are completely open with people ready to meet you on your level.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 29). As curiosity and wonder guide your every move, knowledge turns your world into a playground. You’ll act on your strong instinct to protect and care for others and become a powerful leader in the moments that matter. More highlights: an elite invitation validates your work, a health victory, and a financial boost you pay forward that boomerangs back. Leo and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 16, 34, 49, and 13.
