Your 2020 November Horoscope
November is the eleventh and penultimate month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars, the fourth and last of four months to have a length of 30 days and the fifth and last of five months to have a length of fewer than 31 days. Across all signs in the Zodiac, many people begin to experience the "winter blues" at this time of year. Stay positive, no matter what the stars have in store for you this month.
Aries:
Now that you've got your mojo back, what are you going to do with it? Since September, Mars has moved backward, weakened, in your sign. This has likely slowed momentum in a key area. It has possibly made even the simplest plan feel like a major undertaking. But it's how you present yourself to the world and where you yearn to achieve your potential that receives a significant, powerful boost. Prepare to reclaim your power – and revive your passion!
Taurus:
Are you where you need to be – or where you feel obliged to be? It may be time to assess honestly if your efforts and talents are appropriately applied. Yes, there will likely be a strong emphasis on your income, possessions, and valuables. You could discover a new way to make money. But what you earn could become more of a 'means to an end' to bring happiness connected with inspiring potential that exists elsewhere.
Gemini:
Since September, you may have felt that an important goal had to sit on a back burner. A lack of progress may have felt frustrating. But this 'time out' period has helped you make plans and consider what you'll do once the light turns from red to green. This month, that happens! However, to move forward effectively, you may need to release a weighty commitment that has had its day. A Lunar Eclipse in your sign on the 30th could clarify what – or who – this is.
Cancer:
'You never know what you can achieve until you put your mind to it.' To some people, those words are inspiring. To you, they might be annoying or condescending. Since September, you've used available planning time to get career-related 'ducks in a row.' You have a clearer idea of what you want and don't want professionally and how to overcome obstacles. You've likely felt ready for a new career chapter to commence. This month, action replaces thinking.
Leo:
Recent months may have felt frustrating where increased security and stability are concerned. Important, long-term goals may have become mirage-like or subjected to delays beyond your control, causing you to think progress would never happen. This month, you should feel reassured that you can finally take essential, timely steps. With a New Moon and Venus affecting your home and family, you could breathe a sigh of relief on the domestic front, too!
Virgo:
November is brought to you by the words 'release' and 'relief.' 'Release' may involve accepting a matter you've ignored or 'swept under the carpet' needs facing. Since September, a backward-moving Mars has affected secret fears or personal matters kept to yourself. From the 13th, you could find these emerge and demand attention. But prepare to feel liberated by giving it. As for 'relief'? See how the Lunar Eclipse on the 30th marks a new era with your career.
Libra:
A wave of comfort and security arrives, courtesy of a New Moon and Venus. The lunar event on the 15th brings a new beginning and shift in attitude toward what you earn and own. Your income could be affected in the first instance. What unfolds could reflect your recent efforts. Venus also casts a magical, creative influence on earnings, values, and valuables. If you have an unused or underused talent that could boost your income, then this is the month to apply it confidently!
Scorpio:
A New Moon graces your sign on the 15th. Look honestly at what or who holds you back from being the best version of yourself or achieving untapped potential. Whatever fires your imagination needs you to be free from anchors. You also have Mars awakening after a three-month slumber. Countdown commences for plans you've pondered to change daily routines, your job, or introduce a health regime. It's time to believe in yourself and apply faith-driven effort!
Sagittarius:
This is a month to be guided by curiosity or a desire to explore the enigmatic realms of your world. A New Moon on the 15th marks a new chapter with spiritual mysteries, fantasies, and escapism. If necessary, open your mind to what can't be explained easily, psychic matters, or where quiet 'you time' can heal psychological or emotional wounds. If you've wanted to learn more about self-healing or less traditional ways to do so, then the Universe supports your quest!
Capricorn:
Since September, Mars hasn't been helpful where your emotional foundations – or need for stability and personal security – are concerned. Uncertainty may have surrounded your home, family, a close relationship, or all the above. Mars also enjoys creating conflict, and you may have experienced your share of tension in those areas. This month, Mars is supportive. Motivation and determination replace lethargy. It's time to take the initiative to bring stability where it's needed.
Aquarius:
You may have recently felt a professional pursuit or an important ambition was getting underway but ground to a halt or went off on a tangent. This month, you have a New Moon on the 15th offering a fresh start career-wise. Venus follows on the 21st, bringing an abundance of charm and charisma to help you get noticed. Your reputation and public image receive a tremendous boost. See how this helps you get your foot in the door - or move up the professional ladder!
Pisces:
Since September, Mars, instead of boosting determination to enhance your earnings, has likely caused you to feel uninspired or deflated. This month, that uphill battle should feel less problematic. Perhaps, having your confidence restored in a talent or skill plays a part in a healthier bank account. On the 30th, a Lunar Eclipse affects your home, family, and emotional foundations. Be strong. Be philosophical. Whatever changes or ends has been building for some time.

Special guest post by Jeff Lundenberger @jlundenberger
I Found It at the Drive-In
My host, Aurora, recently shared a piece on this blog celebrating the 84th anniversary of the birth of the drive-in. In it, she mentioned a history.com statistic that there are less than 500 functioning drive-in theatres in the U.S. today. This bit of information sent me directly to the website of the Lynn Drive-In in Strasburg, Ohio, the local drive-in of my youth, and I was relieved to discover that it is still open. The website proudly proclaims its status as “Ohio’s Oldest Drive-In Theatre Since 1937.” It now has two screens – I think a summertime trip to Ohio for an investigation into that development is in order – both with double features every night of the week. “Come as you are in the Family Car,” the home page invites, and I’m happy for the Ohio families that are still able to patronize this fading American institution. Hopefully they are creating future memories like the fond, but dim, memories I have of going to the movies in the twilight outdoors of my earlier days.
How the West Was Won might have been the first movie I saw at the drive-in. It was released in February of 1963 and I probably saw it that summer. I have a distinct memory of seeing the film, but my parents don’t remember any of it, or any of the other films I recall seeing with them. That was the only time I’ve seen How the West Was Won from start to finish, at that trip to the drive-in, whatever year it was. At least I assume I saw the whole thing. I have little memory of the actual movie. I’ve seen parts of it since, catching it randomly on TCM now and then, and there are sparks of recognition, like waking in the morning and trying to piece together a hazy dream. The only thing I’m sure of is the song A Home in the Meadow, sung by Debbie Reynolds in the film. I was pleasantly haunted by that tune for days afterward. It seemed like a song I had known since before I was born. Later, I was happy, if a bit confused, when the same tune turned up with different words in the Christmas Carol What Child is This?
My aunt, uncle and six cousins accompanied us to at least one movie – this might have been it. I remember the two station wagons, Ford Country Sedans, parked side by side, both filled to the brim with children making faces at one another through steamy windows. This wasn’t the only outing we had with my mother’s sister and her family. Somewhere there is a picture of us at the Cleveland Zoo, looking more like a class trip than two families on a local vacation.
We weren’t poor, but with so many of us mom economized by popping batches of corn that filled a big brown grocery store bag, the outside speckled with patches of grease. There was pop (aka soda) in a cooler, but how I longed to get something from the concession stand (goaded, no doubt, by the on-screen prodding of the preview) that tempted from the little building that also housed the film projector. We were only permitted to go there to use the restroom, accompanied, of course, by a parent. I stared down the rows of candy as I waited for my mom and sisters to finish their business – surely mom would relent and buy me something. We returned to the car empty-handed.
As I look up the release dates for other films I saw as a child, I see that 1964 must have been a big year for me and the movies. I don’t remember going to see Mary Poppins, at the drive-in or otherwise, but I received the soundtrack record for my birthday, and I do remember being completely mystified by the Sister Suffragette scene and song. I remember standing in line outside a theatre for A Hard Days Night, taken there by a friend’s mother. It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World was released in November, 1963, and so it must have been the summer of 1964 when my uncle, as a birthday gift, took two cousins and myself to see it. The three of us were all born in the same year, one each in June, July and August. I was the oldest of the bunch, if only by a matter of weeks, and I wasn’t happy that I had to sit in the back seat. Chalk it up to the early diva in me.
It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, too, is a movie I’ve seen in its entirety only as a child and, again, my few memories of seeing it then are interwoven with the several times I’ve seen parts of it over the years since. I do remember Jimmy Durante, before dying on the side of the road, telling a group of people about some money buried underneath a big W. I remember Phil Silvers in a convertible in a river. I remember the palm trees that create the big W, men atop impossibly tall fire truck ladders, and Ethel Merman slipping on a banana peel. I think.
  Who would take their eight year old child (and his younger siblings) to see Alfred Hitchcock’s Marnie? Take a guess. My parents have never been review-readers and I’m sure they must have thought it was just another Hitchcock suspense film with an ambiguous ending. Were they surprised when they discovered that the film included sexual repression and violence? I asked – they don’t remember. I remember a yellow purse, black hair, the entire screen turning red, and a little girl killing a man with a poker under very peculiar circumstances. Like Marnie Edgar, I’ve had hidden memories jogged to life, not by the hysterics of my mother but by later viewings of this film. Fortunately, my hidden memories don’t carry with them a debilitating psychosis. Or do they? I admit, I have something of an obsession with Sir Alfred and his films. I blame – and thank – mom and dad.
I saw Woman of Straw at the drive-in. It, too, was released in 1964 and I’m guessing it was the first film of a double feature with Marnie. It would make sense, since both star Sean Connery. An online plot synopsis mentions Ralph Richardson in a wheelchair, and that revived my only recollection of that film: a wheelchair.
I think my parents took us to the drive-in to see the animated Disney version of The Jungle Book in 1967 and The Odd Couple in 1968. Funny, my memories of those two more recent films are less certain than those of the earlier ones. I watched The Odd Couple a few months ago and it provoked those recognizable flashes of familiarity. That must have been when I saw the trailer for Rosemary’s Baby, which left more of an impression than the feature. Mom answered with a firm “no” when I asked if we could return to see it. That also could have been the night we took to the open air to watch a film. It was a balmy summer night and we put a blanket on the hump of ground that raised the car to an optimum viewing angle. It was perfect for an outdoor sofa and it was bliss, watching a movie under the stars while the sounds from the tinny speakers echoed across the field.
The Ray Harryhausen films The Golden Voyage of Sinbad (1974) and Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger (1977), their thin stories made palatable by their charming, almost tactile stop-motion special effects, were perfect drive-in material. I saw both of them in the years of their release, with two different friends. My Golden friend shocked me when he took apart the speaker and unhooked its wires, a much easier operation than I would have guessed, making of it a bulky, metal souvenir. I was sure we were going to be arrested and couldn’t relax until we had left the lot and were on our way home. Tiger was much less stressful.
A double feature of Friday the 13th Part 2 and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre drew two friends and myself to an unfamiliar Ohio drive-in one summer night in 1981. This time out I was content sitting in the back seat, it being a hot and humid night. We laughed and talked throughout Friday – it didn’t take us long to figure out that most of the high and horny teens were going to get it, one way or another. Chainsaw was another story. Before the credits had finished I had crawled into the front seat. There we were, three sweaty, screaming adults, car windows closed because everyone knows that chainsaws can’t penetrate glass. It might be the most disturbing movie I’ve ever seen. Part of me would like to see it again, to see if it still as terrifying as I remember. Most of me says just let sleeping Leatherfaces lie.
I went to the Lynn for a XXX double feature with a couple of friends one year. Late at night, on weekends, cars lined up for a mile or so down the road for the after midnight porn. And that’s all I’m going to say about that.
I saw Blade Runner, in 1982, at yet another local Ohio drive-in. I loved the film and its evocation of a film noir future, and this was my second time seeing it. My cousin took us in his pickup truck, me and another cousin who he was dating… from the opposite side of my family. Ohio isn’t THAT bad. How was I to know that this would be my last trip to the drive-in? We enjoyed the movie, I visited the concession stand several times for snacks, he drove us home, and that was that.
Home and theatre collide at the drive-in. We face the big screen, surrounded by others, the extent of the public experience limited to the family and friends seated with us in the safety of our vehicular capsules, a communal isolation. It’s the best of both worlds. The images are larger than life. You can trek to the concession stand for snacks – or bring your own. The kids can wear pajamas. I guess you can too, if your sartorial concerns are less stringent than mine. And, if you have to shush someone, take comfort in the fact that you’ll be shushing someone you know. I had great fun at the drive-in and would happily go again if there were one nearby. Not for a film I was genuinely interested in, mind you. As much as I enjoyed the experience, it’s not the ideal atmosphere for watching a film with serious intent. But I would have appreciated Alien: Covenant, which I saw recently at the mall, much more if I had seen it with that spoonful of sugar that is the lowered expectation of the drive-in.
The magical appeal of that union of movie and night persists. A local hotel here in Asbury Park is now showing open-air movies on the roof, the rescued sign from Asbury’s old Baronet Theatre glowing proudly above the screen, and the last few summers have featured movies on the beach (Jaws being a big hit). Who knows? Maybe the architects who created movie palaces with ceilings of sky, stars and drifting clouds were anticipating a theatrical future that included the classic drive-in.
