Your daily horoscopes for Friday November 3, 2023

Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

Yes, Aries, it is possible to work efficiently AND find joy in the process. Despite what you may believe, the two are not mutually exclusive. And today’s dreamy dance between artsy Venus and intuitive Neptune can show you how it’s done. First, adjust your attitude! Resolve to enjoy each task, maybe by building in little reward breaks at certain intervals. Go out for a fancier-than-usual lunch with a coworker or take a mid-afternoon walk. If your schedule permits, perhaps you can squeeze in a quick yoga class before quitting time!

Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

You might feel ambivalent about a team effort as you try to decide on the right amount of esprit de corps to dial up. Under a befuddling Venus-Neptune opposition, you’re torn between throwing yourself into this collaboration and staying on the fringes and protecting your intellectual property. To whatever degree you do engage, be sure to stand your ground around domineering personalities. (There’s always at least one in every crew.) Your cheery attitude will quickly evaporate if you feel like you’re not being acknowledged.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

Pick up a box of tissues on your way into work today, Gem. You might be playing the role of therapist (or couple’s counselor) for some out-of-sorts co-workers. With an opposition of two of the most sensitive planets—Venus and Neptune—in your work and family zones, you’ll have the empathy AND the emotional distance to listen objectively and provide support. You probably won’t even need to dish out advice. Your special brand of active listening is more than enough.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

You can easily win people’s hearts and minds today, Cancer, so don’t hold back! Venus in your communication corner heads up your charm offense as she trades fire with intuitive Neptune. Your flirtation skills are in perfect working order, too, should you be looking to connect on THAT level. But don’t get so carried away with your ability to impress or woo people that you lose sight of your higher goals. Before you got sprinkled with this fairy dust, you WERE on a mission….

Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

Your regal sign can practically smell the difference between the real deal and a knockoff and wouldn’t dream of lowering your standards. But if you’ve been trying to tighten your (Gucci) belt, you’ve probably learned to adapt to “affordable luxury.” Today, as fashionista Venus opposes dreamy Neptune across your money axis, you may really, REALLY want something new for your fall wardrobe. NP! Use your savvy deal-finding skills to home in on one absolutely perfect piece—at a fraction of retail. Score!

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

Dim your light so someone ELSE can shine? We don’t think so, Virgo. Your modest, service-oriented sign is always ready to help out a friend in need, but letting others grab the glory when you’ve done all the legwork just isn’t right. Under today’s eye-opening Venus-Neptune opposition, take an unblinking look at the situation. Is this truly a matter of helping a friend—or is someone climbing on your sturdy shoulders to raise themselves up? Nip that in the bud!

Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

It takes a lot to push you to your limit, but a truly aggravating person could manage to do it today. As your ruler, peaceful Venus, faces off with compassionate Neptune, you may struggle to stay centered. Sometimes playing fair means playing hardball—but that doesn’t give you permission to deliberately throw out a wild pitch. With these planets in the private corners of your chart, you don’t need to make a scene. Pull back instead of losing your famous Libra cool.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

You may feel seriously tempted to cross a red line today or give a triggering person a second chance. With peaceful Venus heating up your friendship zone AND opposing boundary-challenged Neptune, you’re only seeing the upside of such a liaison. While it could be amazing, remember: Where there’s smoke, there usually is fire. As a Scorpio, you’re going to do exactly as you want, so at least TRY to think through possible repercussions and make sure you’re ready to handle that.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

Your sixth sense is sharper than any other tool in your arsenal today, Sagittarius, so follow that rather than turn to your inner circle for input. This goes double if you have to make a decision that your squad may not understand or support. With creative Venus in your work corner locking horns with perceptive Neptune, you have access to more tuned-in downloads. If one person in your world has actually dealt with a similar issue, it MIGHT be worth getting their advice; but no Gallup-polling!

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

It’s easy for you to slip into an “all work and no play” groove, but today’s skies have other plans for you. With sensual Venus in your adventurous ninth house opposing emo Neptune, it’s a good day for a personal timeout. If you can take a personal day, so much the better, but even a long lunch break walking in nature or strolling through an artsy neighborhood can get your creative juices flowing. When you get back to work, you’ll feel refreshed and even more productive!

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

With a Venus-Neptune face-off hitting your work and money houses, you’ll be inspired to dive into a project, particularly the creative aspects of it. But instead of going about things in the same order or using a tired approach, mix it up. Venus and Neptune may inspire you to source from different vendors or tap other people to fill in some gaps in your skill set. Brainstorm away, but since this dust-up can put practicality on hold, just throw all those ideas up on the whiteboard and run them through the reality filter tomorrow.

Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Friday November 3

Are you helping, empowering or enabling? Today, under a disarming opposition of affectionate Venus and your ruler, compassionate Neptune, you may be so intent on being there for someone that you don’t realize you’ve overstepped a boundary. Give—just enough to get THEM in motion—then get back to your work. Make sure you’re not procrastinating on your own agenda by focusing too much on other people.
