November 17 birthday horoscope and your daily astrology

Your popularity may increase a notch or two during the next two to three weeks. You may receive extra social invitations, make valuable connections, or be held in high esteem by your peer group. Consider filling your social calendar for December when gatherings and holiday excursions are a tradition. A take charge attitude and good sportsmanship could set in during January as healthy competitions may be happening. Romantic yearnings and fantasies might be on your mind in late January when you could enjoy a vacation or time off with a loved one. Write down your most inspiring ideas, as they may have value in the future even if it may not seem possible to act on them. Maintain a low profile in early February when you may lack important details for certain negotiations. Think twice before implementing new strategies and financial tactics at that time.
