Your Weekly Horoscope for November 28, 2021
With Thanksgiving in the rearview, December comes in hot with the fiery, final solar eclipse of the year. But that's far from the only astrological highlight this week.
On Sunday, November 28, the sun pairs up with messenger Mercury in Sagittarius, supporting confident, opinionated, unfiltered communication. On Wednesday, December 1, spiritual Neptune, which has been retrograde in mystical Pisces since June 25, finally goes direct, allowing you to put your rose-colored glasses back on after months of reality checks. And on Friday, December 3 or Saturday, December 4 (depending on your time zone) the new moon and solar eclipse in Sag hits, bringing exciting change, bolstering courage, and empowering you to speak your truth.
