Your daily horoscopes for Thursday November 28, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Family overload alert! With the moon in Scorpio today, spending time with one special person will be more your groove than pulling off the “life of the party” role. Of course, that quest for one-on-one time is easier said than done if there are guests milling about. Slip off for a walk or some cozy conversation in the quietest part of the house (doors closed). Don’t hide away the entire time. An inspiring conversation about a creative project could set ambitious plans in motion before the dessert plates are cleared.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Repeat after us, Taurus: “I am thankful for (fill in the blank).” Today’s moon-Mars square could stir up some moody blues, but you don’t have to spend the day in a funk. Get cozy with your journal this morning, writing down all the stormy thoughts that come up. After you’ve gotten that out (because face it, denial isn’t going to make ‘em go away), make a gratitude list. Who are you spending the day with? Pick a few things to appreciate about each of them, then say them out loud. Lift the spirits of your celebration by asking people what they’re most thankful for this year themselves. The feel-good buzz will be palpable by the time the turkey is carved.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Today’s planets put you in your dual-natured element: Half of you is fluttering about in social butterfly mode while the other half wants to settle down for a long winter’s nap. Don’t commit to any all-day events—not unless you’re comfortable slipping off for a little shut-eye wherever you go. Take people in small bites. An hour with this one, a couple hours at that party will be more your speed. And if you decide to skip the whole turkey ordeal and decamp to a Chinese restaurant followed by a movie and karaoke, the cosmos will understand.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Put a couple extra chairs around the table, Cancer—two, not ten. The Scorpio moon is butting heads with excitable Mars, which could make you eager to share your bounty with everyone you love. The trouble is, you won’t have the firmest sense of boundaries, and this could lead to burnout. You don’t have to invite a fleet of unprepared neighbors to carve into your turkey, especially if it means your already invited guests will be short-changed when it comes to your culinary care and loving attention. That said, there are probably one or two beloved souls in your social circle who don’t have plans for the day. Loop them into your celebrations like the extended family they are.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Delayed reaction? With the Scorpio moon squaring hotheaded Mars in Leo, you could get hit by a lightning bolt of truth. Something—or someone—really pushed your buttons recently, but in good-natured-Leo fashion, you convinced yourself it was “no big deal.” Although the realization is a powerful one, confronting the person in question is not a good idea. Give yourself time to process the accompanying emotions with a supportive person in your circle. Slip off for a walk with a soul sister or your cell phone and get that perspective. Don’t O.D. on turkey. Nightlife beckons, so burn off the indulgent meal on the dance floor!

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
A traditional feast with all the trimmings? With a restless moon-Mars square, you may not have the patience to baste the turkey and make dressing from scratch. Call for backup so you’re not locked down in the kitchen all day. You’ll have a better time picking up guests from the airport or giving them the grand tour of your hometown and all the latest haunts. If you’re traveling, take a few hours to explore before the dinner bell rings. Even if all the stores are closed, a walk through the crisp air will be rejuvenating; plus you can peek in the shop windows for a preview of tomorrow’s Black Friday steals and map out your plan of attack.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
With ambitious Mars in your teamwork zone this turkey day, you’re the glue who holds everyone together, but that doesn’t mean you should sacrifice self-care. Stress levels tend to rise during the holidays, so do some damage control in advance. Prepare a relaxing playlist of intergenerational jams, set up a play area for the kids with crayons or video games, design icebreaker activities (or a tray of signature cocktails) to warm everyone up pre-meal. Romantically, this planetary pair may present you with a situation that forces you to drop your guard. That could spell major momentum in the love department! A complete surprise, but you’re here for it.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
You’re the star of The Gratitude Show today. With the moon circulating in Scorpio, plenty of appreciation is heading your way. Revel in it and keep the good vibes flowing by openly acknowledging what you adore about everyone in your midst. Remember: It’s just as easy to harp on what annoys you about people, especially when the heat of holiday stress cranks up. Carve out a little “me time” in your schedule today to keep your sanity in check. But don’t lose track of time (easy for live-for-the-moment Scorpios to do). Showing up late at the dinner table could bring unnecessary friction with your gracious host.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
“Tis better to give” could be your mantra today as the planets leave you awash in thankful vibes for all that you have. Pick up a volunteer shift at a shelter, make airport runs or play sous chef to whomever is preparing the seasonal feast. One caveat: You also need to know your limits! A moon-Mars square makes you prone to overdoing everything, and this could leave you exhausted and resentful. Park your invisible jet in between shifts so you don’t crash and burn.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Breathe in through your nose, out through your mouth. A little centering meditation would do you good before you launch into your day. Planetary activity is frenetic—though fun—so it’s important that you stay grounded in the face of it all to keep anxieties at bay. A flirtatious attraction heats up and might even find you slipping into a quiet room for a memorable kiss. Coupled? Although the demands of family, friends and guests could activate your people-pleasing side, circle an hour for romantic “just the two of us” time. Bundle up and walk gloved hand in hand or take a drive to see a holiday light display—sexy roadside makeout session a plus.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Is it love that you’re feeling? Today’s moon-Mars square stretches your heart like a rubber band. You can’t deny your attraction to a certain someone, but another part of you is starting to feel drained by the demands of the relationship. Stop over-functioning, Aquarius, and restore equilibrium to your bond. In some cases, ‘tis better to receive than give…or create a little more breathing room with the person in question. In the meanwhile, nurture your connection to a few of the people who you know you can lean on.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Thursday November 28
Will this be a three-hanky Thanksgiving for you, Pisces? With the Scorpio moon lighting up your outspoken ninth house, you’ll well up with gratitude for the ones you love. Don’t hold back your appreciation. Raise a toast to someone at the table who really made a difference for you in 2024. Although the good vibes are flowing, don’t spill every tawdry detail or epic drama from your personal life. With the moon and Mars squaring each other, oversharing could leave you feeling vulnerable and exposed. Choose your confidantes wisely.
