November Design Horiscopes

Sagittarius

Jupiter, your ruling planet, is making a transit through your sign this month. That's a mighty big mass on the move and it might have a direct effect on you. If you have some authority, go ahead and slightly throw your weight around on a few projects. It never hurts to let others occasionally feel your presence. Tread firmly but lightly. Remember, feeling your presence does not include ruthlessly stepping on tender toes.

Capricorn

Your money planet is Uranus and why that causes others to snicker childishly is bewildering. As a Capricorn, one of your strongest virtues is patience but you are also prone to negative thoughts. You feel you deserve at least a moderate increase in salary before the end of the year but you're willing to wait because of fear you'll be soundly rejected and ridiculed for seeking one. If you don't go for it now, you'll want to kick yourself in your money planet later.

Aquarius

As an Aquarian, you have an uncanny ability to understand abstract concepts. However, for most of this month, you'll constantly battle lapses of concentration. And there's nothing abstract about the reason for your lack of focus: it's party time! In December, much to employers' dismay, revelry takes priority over responsibility. Try not to let things get out of hand and at the very least, avoid incarceration. No client wants to use a designer who is concepting from a jail cell.

Pisces

All Pisces have heightened sensitivity and psychic power. Tapping into those attributes might come in handy. Tune into your sixth sense and attempt to pick up vibes that can steer your career in a better direction or help you avoid pitfalls and costly mistakes. But don't take the psychic power thing too far. If you do, here's a prediction: dressing like a gypsy, carrying a crystal ball and spreading out tarot cards in your work area will most assuredly frighten the heck out of co-workers.

Aries

Aggressive and restless, pity the poor fool who gets in your way this month. It's full speed ahead as you run around and wrap up end-of-the-year projects at a dizzying pace. Your highly charged energy is so contagious it's even putting some spring in the step of those who normally shuffle their way around the office. Slow it down on the way home or your unbridled drive will pay off—but only for the pursuing police officer who writes your speeding ticket.

Taurus

One of the top objectives in the life of a Taurean is to maintain stability. Unfortunately, the festive-laden month of December is about as stable as an intoxicated monkey on a trampoline. Office parties, gift exchanges, after-hour celebrations and employee food fests are all digressions this month from your stable work routine. Jump in and let loose. Save your painful regrets for the morning after.

Gemini

As the New Year approaches, you're feeling youthful and lively. There's an aura of renewed energy around you and it's not from the protein bars you munch on during the day. Your spirit is undergoing a major uplift and you are ready to tackle every project challenge that 2008 has to offer. Grab all the creative gusto you can muster. You'll be more charged this month than a Christmas shopaholic's credit card.

Cancer

Cancerians are easily flattered but lauds of any kind recently have not come your way. Lately you've been more low-key than a newcomer to the US Federal Witness Protection Program. End the year quietly but look for a boost in compliments and adulation in '08. These praises might be work-related, appearance-related or even personality-related but nothing that will attract the attention of local media or paparazzi. In an ironic way, that in itself is flattering.

Leo

You're feeling cumulative fatigue this month from what has been a busy year that included your designs on a wild diversity of projects—from a label on a bottle of clowns' shampoo to a cover for a prison tours vacation handbook to a poster for mime's karaoke night to numerous redesigns of a newsletter devoted to people who suffer from acute boredom—it seems you've done it all. Take some extra time off for the holidays and avoid anything out of the ordinary.

Virgo

What a special time of year—partying, celebrating, caroling, gift-giving, snowing, sneezing and coughing. Try to subtly avoid ill co-workers in the office but don't freak out with verminophobia, which is an out-of-control, exaggerated fear of germs. Wearing a surgical mask to work is ill advised and will only alienate others who have a tendency to be extra friendly during the holiday season. Just go with the flow. The New Year will bring a fresh set of company sick days you can use.

Libra

Typical Libra, symbolized by the scales. You've done a good job of balancing projects this month so that your end-of-year workload is all wrapped up like a Christmas present. Now you can enjoy the seasonal festivities and jump head first into all the celebrations. Keep in mind, though, while you have visions of sugarplums dancing in your head, the procrastinators still have some work to do before jolly ol' Santa wiggles his plump derriere down their chimneys.

Scorpio

You work hard Scorpio and you play even harder. You'll make the rounds in your wide social circle this month and your magnetic personality will easily be the life of festive office parties. With a boisterous "Merry Christmas to all!" accompanied by tight hugs, lingering kisses and impromptu dancing, you might lend new meaning to the term, 'Season's Greetings.' Just remember that what happens at office Christmas parties doesn't stay at office Christmas parties. Unless you're in Vegas.
