Sensitive and restless, you are a Scorpio with a dynamic personality and a need for variety. Usually life has a lot in store for you, and before settling down, you may experience numerous transformations. An innate restlessness implies that you can become easily bored in a monotonous atmosphere, while diversity can stimulate your mind.

If financial situations leave you dissatisfied, you are likely to search for better prospects. This urge to make a fresh start suggests that you may sometimes need to leave your past behind in order to move forward. For peace of mind and security, however, it would be advisable to consider long-term plans and investments.

Friendly and gregarious, you need to be involved in all sorts of social activities. The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Scorpio, suggests that although you are tenacious, with power, determination, and drive, your gentle side shows your vulnerability. If these extremes become too excessive, your relationships may suffer.

You are an idealist, and at times your moods and sarcasm can clash with your good intentions and efforts. Receptive and clever, you learn quickly and have an instinctive understanding of others. By staying open-minded and optimistic, rather than becoming insecure, you come to learn that if you do not succeed the first time, you can always try again.

After the age of twenty, when your progressed Sun moves into Sagittarius, you feel a growing need for more expansion and optimism in your life. This may come through mental development, education, or travel, or you may have a desire to seek for truth or a philosophy in life. Another turning point occurs at the age of fifty, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, highlighting the importance of order, structure, and realism in achieving your goals.

Although you may have an extravagant streak, money and security can often be a motivating factor to get you moving. However, a natural humanitarianism also gives you a strong interest in people and enables you to maintain your sense of perspective. By staying as detached as possible, you are able to avoid personal frustration or disappointment.

Sociable, with creative ideas, you may be happiest when expressing yourself. Your intuitive feelings are usually right and can often help you quickly judge others. At other times, you may suffer from an innate self-doubt that comes from not being certain you are making the right decisions. Nevertheless, you have a way with people and can be a fun companion, entertaining others with your wit and astute observations.

Primary Star's Influence

Acrux bestows a love of knowledge, harmony, and justice. This star imparts an interest in philosophy, metaphysics, and astrology as well as granting psychic abilities. You have an inquisitive mind and probably an insatiable appetite for books or a desire to travel. Acrux may lead you toward research and education, the social sciences, philosophy and religion.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Acrux suggests a sensitive and sentimental nature. This star imparts broadminded humanitarian beliefs, and you may be a seeker of justice. You may become a leader in your profession and can excel or gain a high position in affairs that concern humankind.

Positive: justice, love toward your fellow man, compassion

Negative: revenge, injustice, lack of feelings

Work & Vocation

Although hardworking and ambitious, you have a love of variety that points to a career involving constant change. A fine intellect and shrewd business sense can help you succeed in finance, sales, or law. With your natural diplomacy, you may fare equally well in careers such as media, public relations, or arbitration. Alternatively, your sensitivity, imagination, and vision may find an outlet in music, drama, or photography. Being an idealist and a good psychologist, you may be equally drawn to therapy or fighting for a cause. Optionally, careers involving sport or leisure can be excellent outlets for your energy and drive.

Numerology

Sensitivity and a strong need to be part of a group are suggested by a number 2 birthday. Adaptable and understanding, you enjoy cooperative activities where you can experience interaction with others. In your attempt to please those you like, you may run the risk of becoming overly dependent. Nevertheless, by developing confidence, you can overcome the tendency to be easily hurt by the action and criticism of others. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that you can express yourself and inspire others with your high ideals. Being innovative and having an interest in social reforms indicate that you need to be in the forefront of contemporary social groups. By persevering and being practical, you can attain your goals and objectives. Avoid taking on too many responsibilities or doing more than your fair share for other people.

Positive: good partnerships, gentle, tactful, receptive, intuitive, considerate, harmonious, agreeable, ambassador of goodwill

Negative: suspicious, lack of confidence, subservient, oversensitive, selfish, easily hurt, moody, deceitful



Love & Relationships

Imaginative and clever, you need to surround yourself with people who can inspire and motivate you. Secretive, you may sometimes be too reserved or shy to express your true feelings. Nevertheless, being sociable and entertaining, you have many friends and can be an interesting and amusing companion. Your close relationships are very important to you, so you are usually willing to work hard to make them a success.

Sensitive and restless, you are a Scorpio with a dynamic personality and a need for variety. Usually life has a lot in store for you, and before settling down, you may experience numerous transformations. An innate restlessness implies that you can become easily bored in a monotonous atmosphere, while diversity can stimulate your mind.

If financial situations leave you dissatisfied, you are likely to search for better prospects. This urge to make a fresh start suggests that you may sometimes need to leave your past behind in order to move forward. For peace of mind and security, however, it would be advisable to consider long-term plans and investments.

Friendly and gregarious, you need to be involved in all sorts of social activities. The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Scorpio, suggests that although you are tenacious, with power, determination, and drive, your gentle side shows your vulnerability. If these extremes become too excessive, your relationships may suffer.

You are an idealist, and at times your moods and sarcasm can clash with your good intentions and efforts. Receptive and clever, you learn quickly and have an instinctive understanding of others. By staying open-minded and optimistic, rather than becoming insecure, you come to learn that if you do not succeed the first time, you can always try again.

After the age of twenty, when your progressed Sun moves into Sagittarius, you feel a growing need for more expansion and optimism in your life. This may come through mental development, education, or travel, or you may have a desire to seek for truth or a philosophy in life. Another turning point occurs at the age of fifty, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, highlighting the importance of order, structure, and realism in achieving your goals.Your Secret Self

Generous and broad-minded, you are intelligent and resourceful, and you like to keep busy. Although you may have an extravagant streak, money and security can often be a motivating factor to get you moving. However, a natural humanitarianism also gives you a strong interest in people and enables you to maintain your sense of perspective. By staying as detached as possible, you are able to avoid personal frustration or disappointment.

Sociable, with creative ideas, you may be happiest when expressing yourself. Your intuitive feelings are usually right and can often help you quickly judge others. At other times, you may suffer from an innate self-doubt that comes from not being certain you are making the right decisions. Nevertheless, you have a way with people and can be a fun companion, entertaining others with your wit and astute observations.Primary Star's Influence

Acrux bestows a love of knowledge, harmony, and justice. This star imparts an interest in philosophy, metaphysics, and astrology as well as granting psychic abilities. You have an inquisitive mind and probably an insatiable appetite for books or a desire to travel. Acrux may lead you toward research and education, the social sciences, philosophy and religion.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Acrux suggests a sensitive and sentimental nature. This star imparts broadminded humanitarian beliefs, and you may be a seeker of justice. You may become a leader in your profession and can excel or gain a high position in affairs that concern humankind.

Positive: justice, love toward your fellow man, compassion

Negative: revenge, injustice, lack of feelingsWork & Vocation

Although hardworking and ambitious, you have a love of variety that points to a career involving constant change. A fine intellect and shrewd business sense can help you succeed in finance, sales, or law. With your natural diplomacy, you may fare equally well in careers such as media, public relations, or arbitration. Alternatively, your sensitivity, imagination, and vision may find an outlet in music, drama, or photography. Being an idealist and a good psychologist, you may be equally drawn to therapy or fighting for a cause. Optionally, careers involving sport or leisure can be excellent outlets for your energy and drive.Numerology

Sensitivity and a strong need to be part of a group are suggested by a number 2 birthday. Adaptable and understanding, you enjoy cooperative activities where you can experience interaction with others. In your attempt to please those you like, you may run the risk of becoming overly dependent. Nevertheless, by developing confidence, you can overcome the tendency to be easily hurt by the action and criticism of others. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that you can express yourself and inspire others with your high ideals. Being innovative and having an interest in social reforms indicate that you need to be in the forefront of contemporary social groups. By persevering and being practical, you can attain your goals and objectives. Avoid taking on too many responsibilities or doing more than your fair share for other people.

Positive: good partnerships, gentle, tactful, receptive, intuitive, considerate, harmonious, agreeable, ambassador of goodwill

Negative: suspicious, lack of confidence, subservient, oversensitive, selfish, easily hurt, moody, deceitful

Love & Relationships Imaginative and clever, you need to surround yourself with people who can inspire and motivate you. Secretive, you may sometimes be too reserved or shy to express your true feelings. Nevertheless, being sociable and entertaining, you have many friends and can be an interesting and amusing companion.

I'm jealous, I'm overzealous

When I'm down, I get real down

When I'm high, I don't come down

I get angry, baby, believe me

I could love you just like that

And I could leave you just as fast

But you don't judge me

'Cause if you did, baby, I would judge you too

No, you don't judge me

'Cause if you did, baby, I would judge you too

'Cause I got issues, but you got 'em too

So give 'em all to me and I'll give mine to you

Bask in the glory of all our problems

'Cause we got the kind of love it takes to solve 'em

Yeah, I got issues

And one of them is how bad I need ya

You sound so innocent, all full of good intent

Swear you know best

But you expect me to jump up on board with you

And ride off into your delusional sunset

I'm not the one who's lost with no direction

But you'll never see

You're so busy making masks with my name on them in all caps

You got the talking down, just not the listening

And who cares if you disagree?

You are not me

Who made you king of anything?

So you dare tell me who to be?

Who died and made you king of anything?

November 3

Although you often have a pragmatic approach to life, you are a sensitive and imaginative Scorpio. Usually determined, with a strong need for self-expression, you can combine practical skills with your creative talents. Friendly and sociable, you enjoy the company of others and can be very entertaining.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Pisces, suggests that although you are sensible, learning to trust your instincts or first impressions can help you overcome your doubts and indecision. Neptune’s influence grants you great inner vision, psychic abilities, and receptivity. Although you can be loyal and loving, you may have to guard against a tendency to be stubborn.

As a perfectionist who is talented and idealistic, you usually take pride in your work and add a touch of individualism to whatever you do. By avoiding the worry and emotional insecurity to which you are often prey, you will be able to execute your obligations to your satisfaction. Use charm and witty repartee rather than jealousy and sarcastic remarks when you want to put your views across.

You are often blessed with good economic circumstances, but if you do find yourself short of funds, your troubles are usually short-lived. Although your financial prospects are favorable, a strong emphasis on work implies that through perseverance and concentrated effort, you can take advantage of the many opportunities that come your way.

After the age of nineteen, when your progressed Sun moves into Sagittarius, you become more optimistic and have a growing need for a more expansive outlook; this may lead you to broaden your horizons, seek truth, travel, or study. After the age of forty-nine, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, you become more practical, realistic, and organized in order to achieve our goals.

Your Secret Self Although you project a strong image, an inner restlessness suggests that you need patience and must face the challenge of finding harmony within yourself. Although you have a pragmatic approach to life, a need for adventure and variety can lead you to explore new horizons, whether mentally or emotionally. If your powerful feelings become repressed, however, you may find yourself dissatisfied and escape through fantasy or self-indulgence as a form of compensation.

With your warm heart and sympathy, you can often sense the feelings of others. Your high ideals bring a desire for love and affection that may find creative outlets through the arts or spirituality. A need for personal freedom, however, can bring about changing attitudes or make you prone to fluctuating moods. Fortunately, your magnetic charm and acute perceptions can win you many favours and be keys to outstanding success.

Creative, with a natural talent with words, you are likely to also have latent writing skills that you may wish to cultivate. In business you are ideally suited for dealing with large projects and other people’s money. Alternatively, you may use your sensitivity and creativity in some form of healing or self-expression.

Numerology

With a number 3 birthday, you are sensitive, with a need for creativity and emotional expression. Fun-loving and a good companion, you enjoy friendly social activities and many interests. Although you are versatile and expressive, with a need for different and exciting experiences, an inclination to get bored easily may cause you to become indecisive or spread yourself too thinly. Although, as a number 3 individual, you are usually artistic and charming, with a good sense of humor, you may have to develop self-esteem and guard against tendencies such as worry and emotional insecurity. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that you are enthusiastic and inspired. Supersensitive and imaginative, you have psychic abilities and receptivity. Although you are pragmatic, a tendency to fluctuate emotionally suggests that you need to stay single-minded and apply your inspirational ideas to some serviceable or creative use. If indecisive or insecure, you can succumb to a tendency toward self-indulgence or become scattered, with too many interests.

Positive: humorous, happy, friendly, productive, creative, artistic, freedom-loving, a talent with words

Negative: easily bored, vain, overimaginative, exaggerate, boastful, extravagant, self-indulgent, lazy, hypocritical, wasteful

Love & Relationships

Although you may seem quite down to earth, you are idealistic and romantic, with powerful yet sensitive feelings. You are usually willing to work hard to bring stability to your relationships and possess natural diplomatic skills when needed. If your strong emotions become blocked, however, you may experience changing moods or become dependent on your partner. You possess the ability to be both devotional and caring, yet tough and dutiful with those you love. You need people and are very sociable.

November 4

Inspired and idealistic, with a need to be creative and enterprising, you are a Scorpio who wants to be practical and down to earth. As a discerning individual with insight and determination, you are versatile, with natural business acumen. Often you intuitively know the answer to other people’s problems. Astute and perceptive, with unique ideas, you can present a fresh and unusual point of view that has practical value and is elegant in its simplicity.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Pisces, adds to your receptivity and implies that you can absorb the atmosphere around you. This influence also suggests that although you are imaginative, you can be prone to indecision and misunderstanding. A positive attitude, therefore, is essential to your well-being. By avoiding pessimism, you can focus your attention on matters at hand rather than scatter and diffuse your energies through nervous haste.

Although you have a flair for finances, worry and anxiety often revolve around money issues and can interfere with your ability to resolve problems or find easy solutions. Nevertheless, your inspirational ideas, bright outlook, and communication skills frequently give you the edge when the call is for originality. You are a perfectionist, and your thoroughness or concentration enables you to pick up on ideas and methods very quickly.

After the age of eighteen, when your progressed Sun moves into Sagittarius, you reach a turning point that emphasizes a growing need for freedom and optimism in your life. You may seek to expand your horizons through a quest for truth, mental development, education, or travel. Another turning point occurs at the age of forty-eight, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn and begins to highlight practical issues of persistence, dedication, and realism. From the age of seventy-eight, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, you begin to place more emphasis on independence, friendship, and group awareness.

Your Secret Self

Your inner sensitivity suggests a strong need for harmony, security, and affection. This implies that your home and family are particularly important to you. You run the risk, however, of caring so much that you become dominating and take charge of others’ affairs to run them in your own way. By the power of your love and affection, however, you are able to practice forgiveness and overcome nearly all difficulties. Being a perfectionist, you can be very determined and devoted when committed to a cause or ideal.

Dramatic, with a strong awareness of values, you possess an ability to stand out from the crowd. An innate business sense enables you to turn any situation to your advantage as long as you do not become too materialistic or allow a desire for security to block you from taking risks. Charming and refined, you have only to apply the necessary self-discipline to your natural sense of leadership and intuitive perception to achieve remarkable results in life.

Primary Star's Influence

Acrux bestows a love of knowledge, harmony, and justice. This star imparts an interest in philosophy, metaphysics, and astrology as well as granting psychic abilities. You have an inquisitive mind and probably an insatiable appetite for books or a desire to travel. Acrux may lead you toward research and education, the social sciences, philosophy, and religion.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Acrux suggests a sensitive and sentimental nature. This star imparts broad-minded humanitarian beliefs, and you may be a seeker of justice. You may become a leader in your profession and can excel or gain a high position in affairs that concern humankind.

Positive: justice, love toward your fellow man, compassion

Negative: revenge, injustice, lack of feelings

Work & Vocation

With your original ideas and individual approach to life, you may be attracted to writing or occupations involving communication. Possessing a shrewd business sense, you are often successful in commerce or may use your sharp mind for research, science, or medicine. Equally, your keen mental perceptions can draw you to philosophy, religion, or metaphysics. Given your intuitive understanding of people, any career that uses psychological skills is an excellent channel for your talents. Your natural dramatic sense can also attract you to politics or the entertainment world. Nevertheless, whatever career you choose, you will always have creative ideas and want to be constantly improving the way you work.

Numerology

The solid structure and orderly power suggested by the number 4 birthday indicate that you need stability and like to establish order. Endowed with energy, practical skills, and strong determination, you can achieve success through hard work. Security-conscious, you like to build a strong foundation for yourself and your family. A pragmatic approach to life confers a good business sense and an ability to achieve material success in life. As a number 4 individual, you are usually honest, frank, and fair. The challenges for a number 4 person may include overcoming periods of instability or financial worry. Loyal by nature, you gain from collaborating with others. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that you are intuitive and creative, with a need for self-discipline. Idealistic and easygoing, you also desire harmony and balance. If you are discontented and unsettled, you may rebel and waste your wonderful ideas on impractical schemes. By taking your responsibilities seriously, you can achieve long-lasting stability.

Positive: well organized, self-disciplined, steady, hardworking, organized, craftsmanship, good with your hands, pragmatic, trusting, exact

Negative: unstable, destructive behavior, uncommunicative, repressed, rigid, lazy, unfeeling, procrastination, too economical, bossy, hidden affections, resentful, strict

Love & Relationships

As an idealistic and honest individual, you need to choose your partners cautiously, otherwise you may find them a disappointment. Being secretive suggests that you find it difficult to express your true feelings and so sometimes appear cold or indifferent. By staying sincere and confident, you can develop your emotional spontaneity to enhance loving relationships. Your creative approach to life ensures your success socially and enables you to mix with people from all walks of life.

There used to be a graying tower alone on the sea

You became the light on the dark side of me

Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill

But did you know that when it snows

My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen?

Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray

Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels, yeah

And now that your rose is in bloom

A light hits the gloom on the gray

I dance around this empty house

Tear us down

Throw you out

Screaming down the halls

Spinning all around and now we fall

Pictures framing up the past

Your taunting smirk behind the glass

This museum full of ash

Once a tickle

Now a rash

This used to be a funhouse

But now it's full of evil clowns

It's time to start the countdown

I'm gonna burn it down down down

I'm gonna burn it down

If I tell you now

Will you keep on

Will you keep on loving me?

If I tell you

If I tell you how I feel

Will you keep bringing out the best in me?

You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo

You give me, you're giving me the sweetest taboo

Too good for me

There's a quiet storm

And it never felt like this before

There's a quiet storm

That is you

There's a quiet storm

And it never felt this hot before

Giving me something that's taboo

Got me begging, begging, begging, begging, begging, begging

I still watch you when you're groovin'

As if through water from the bottom of a pool

You're movin' without movin'

And when you move, I'm moved

You are a call to motion

There, all of you a verb in perfect view

Like Jonah on the ocean

When you move, I'm moved

When you move

I'm put to mind of all that I wanna be

When you move

I could never define all that you are to me

So move me, baby

Shake like the bough of a willow tree

You do it naturally

Move me, baby

November 5

Intelligent and receptive, you are an astute Scorpio with deep feelings and strong inner powers. Inquisitive, with a discerning mind, you often attempt to gain strength through knowledge. Although outwardly calm, with a gentle composure, you can become intense, and your sharp criticism can at times be brutally frank. Determined and persistent, you also have strong convictions and a resolute attitude that can sometimes be interpreted as stubbornness.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Pisces, adds power to your sensitivity and implies that you have the ability to instinctively comprehend issues. An ability to concentrate on one issue at a time indicates that you can specialize in one particular field of research or have original interests. Imaginative, with keen senses, you assimilate all that is around you. Although this influence suggests that you can be emotionally excessive or prone to fluctuating moods, you can achieve inner equilibrium by creating a balanced and harmonious atmosphere.

Your need for personal contacts means that, as a networker, you have a flair for people-related activities and usually thrive on new opportunities and contacts. Being mentally active, you enjoy a good intellectual challenge. An inclination to be argumentative, however, implies that when you do not get your own way you can become quarrelsome. Nevertheless, a desire to succeed or become involved in financial ventures indicates that you can benefit from associations or working for others.

After the age of seventeen, when your progressed Sun moves into Sagittarius, you start to become more optimistic. This may lead you to expand your mental outlook on life, take chances, or travel. Alternatively, you may desire more inner freedom and have a greater psychological interest in truth, philosophy, or the meaning of life. After the age of forty-seven, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, you become more organized, industrious, and realistic, with a greater understanding of your goals and ambitions in life. From the age of seventy-seven, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, you begin to place more importance on companionship, freedom, and independence.

Your Secret Self

An interesting combination of high ideals and deep thought mixed with a practical desire for money, prestige, and luxury indicates that you may vacillate between these two extremes. Very strong-willed and determined when you have a goal in mind, you can impress others with your power and resolve. A good strategist, you possess the energy and determination for outstanding personal achievement, although you may find greater happiness using your focused willpower for the good of others.

Although you can often have an exceptionally perceptive mind, your tendency to alternate between ambition and inertia can challenge your otherwise great potential. Nevertheless, with your powers of concentration, need for recognition, and willingness to take on difficult and challenging work, you can be hardworking and dedicated. A strong need for harmony can be reflected in an appreciation or talent for art and music or by expression of a universal spirit.

Primary Star's Influence

Acrux bestows a love of knowledge, harmony, and justice. This star imparts an interest in philosophy, metaphysics, and astrology as well as granting psychic abilities. You have an inquisitive mind and probably an insatiable appetite for books or a desire to travel. Acrux may lead you toward research and education, the social sciences, philosophy, and religion.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Acrux suggests a sensitive and sentimental nature. This star imparts broadminded humanitarian beliefs, and you may be a seeker of justice. You may become a leader in your profession and can excel or gain a high position in affairs that concern humankind.

Positive: justice, love toward your fellow man, compassion

Negative: revenge, injustice, lack of feelings

Work & Vocation

Through your natural diplomatic skills and ability to make contacts, you are able to excel in careers that involve negotiation or arbitration, such as public relations, liaison and agency work, or business advising. You may also be particularly good at selling or promoting an idea or product. Totally determined once committed to a project, you have shrewd business sense and organizational skills that are likely to aid your success in whatever career you choose. Although you may prefer to work for yourself, you also realize the benefits of working cooperatively with others. Alternatively, a need for recognition may push you into the limelight in some capacity.

Numerology

Strong instincts, an adventurous nature, and a desire for freedom are all indicated by the number 5 birthday. The willingness to explore or try anything new and an enthusiastic approach suggest that life will have a lot to offer you. Travel and many opportunities for change, some unexpected, may lead you to undergo a real transformation of views and beliefs. With a number 5 birthday, you need to feel that life is exciting; however, you may also have to develop a responsible attitude and avoid tendencies such as unpredictability, excessiveness, and restlessness. You can achieve success by avoiding premature or speculative actions and through learning patience. The natural talent of a number 5 individual is knowing how to go with the flow and staying detached. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that you are intuitive, with strong instincts. Intelligent and direct, you can communicate your ideas in a crystal-clear manner. Although you are receptive and sensitive to others, your humorous viewpoint can at times blend with your skepticism and produce a cynical wit.

Positive: versatile, adaptable, progressive, strong instincts, magnetic, lucky, daring, freedom-loving, quick and witty, curious, mystical, sociable

Negative: unreliable, changeable, procrastinator, inconsistent, undependable, overconfident, headstrong



Love & Relationships

Sensitive, with powerful emotions, you usually have a curious nature, with fixed beliefs and strong principles. As you admire powerful and independent people, you need a strong partner who can stand up to you and not be intimidated by your forceful personality. Although friendly and sociable, you may strike out on your own and try new challenges. Since you need to exercise your cerebral power, you prefer the company of intelligent individuals.

Strap me in real tight

I'm too cute to fall

Oh, I'm super high

Far away from it all

Got a bag to match

Carry all my burdens

Make it through it all

Even if I'm hurting

Every girl's met a boy who was just no good

Every girl's met a boy who was just no good

Put your best dress on like a diva should

Walk above it all

Walk above it all in your winner shoes

Left, right, keep it moving, you can't lose

High above the drama

Strut it like a rock star

Watch me by the walk in my ten foot stilettos

Can't nobody get to me

Here where it's easy to breathe

I'm just standing free in my ten foot stilettos

I'm a real tough girl

But I'm sweet at heart

Live in a real rough world

Oh I could fall apart

But I just won't fail

'Cause I was born to fly

I rise above, that's how I live my life

Every girl's met a boy who was just no good

No, no, no good

Put your best dress on like a diva should

Walk above it all in your winner shoes

Left, right, keep it moving, you can't lose

High above the drama

Strut it like a rock star

Watch me by the walk in my ten foot stilettos

Can't nobody get to me

Here where it's easy to breathe

I'm just standing free in my ten foot stilettos

Now watch me walk it off

Now watch me walk it off

November 6

Charming and gregarious, though motivated and ambitious, you are an enterprising Scorpio with vision and idealism. A need for personal fulfillment and a desire for action are often your motivating forces. Although you usually appear bright and amicable, occasionally circumstances can cause confusion and leave you feeling insecure or indecisive. Nevertheless, a lucky streak can get you out of many difficult situations, even when these are brought about by your own actions.

The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Pisces, adds intuitive insight to your sensitivity and implies that you have the ability to instinctively comprehend or absorb the atmosphere around you. Imaginative, with keen senses, when inspired you enjoy being creative and fantasize or speculate to better your prospects. Inner equilibrium can be achieved by creating a balanced and harmonious atmosphere in your surroundings.

Happy when initiating new ideas, you like to be in the forefront of new trends. Creativity and practical skills are some of your many attributes, and the ability to present a new and unusual vision suggests that you have original thoughts. Usually a perfectionist, you are enabled, through inspirational ideas and positive perspective, to have the edge when the call is for ingenuity and drama.

After the age of sixteen, when your progressed Sun moves into Sagittarius, you start to become more positive and expansive in your outlook. This may lead you to higher education or travel, or stimulate you to be adventurous and take chances. You may wish to explore your psyche through philosophy, religion, or the quest for truth. From the age of forty-six, when your progressed Sun moves into Capricorn, you begin to take a more practical, realistic, and organized approach to life, with a strong need for order and structure. From the age of seventy-six, when your progressed Sun enters Aquarius, you begin to place more importance on friendship, independence, and humanitarian ideals.

Your Secret Self

Blessed with a talent for fortunate ideas, you often seek associations that can bring you gain and further advancement. A strong emphasis on relationships and partnerships implies that although you are a strong and forceful individual, you may have to learn the art of compromise in order to benefit from what others have to offer. With your intuitive farsightedness and quick grasp of situations, you are usually ready to make the most of opportunities presented to you, if not instigating them yourself.

You can be honest and extremely generous with those you love, but you also run the risk of spoiling your relationships through being domineering or self-destructive. Although you possess potent desires and emotions, by learning to be flexible and take criticism you can be more open to expressing the powerful, selfless love you possess at a deep level.

Primary Star's Influence

Acrux bestows a love of knowledge, harmony, and justice. This star imparts an interest in philosophy, metaphysics, and astrology as well as granting psychic abilities. You have an inquisitive mind and probably an insatiable appetite for books or a desire to travel. Acrux may lead you toward research and education, the social sciences, philosophy, and religion.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, Acrux suggests a sensitive and sentimental nature. This star imparts broadminded humanitarian beliefs, and you may be a seeker of justice. You may become a leader in your profession and can excel or gain a high position in affairs that concern humankind.

Positive: justice, love toward your fellow man, compassion

Negative: revenge, injustice, lack of feelings

Work & Vocation

With your down-to-earth approach and natural diplomatic skills, you enjoy work involving cooperation with others and are in your element when you can mix business and pleasure or when promoting ideas linked to financial gain. Being independent, with natural leadership skills, you do not like to take orders, and this may stimulate you to apply for management positions or work for yourself. With an urge for action and a talent for troubleshooting, you often thrive on new beginnings or challenges. Courageous yet persuasive, you can be very committed and enthusiastic once decided on an activity or career. Music or writing may also prove attractive to you, either professionally or as a creative release.

Numerology

Compassion, idealism, and a caring nature are some of the attributes suggested by a number 6 birthday. This is the number of the perfectionist or the universal friend and indicates that you are frequently a humanitarian who can be responsible, loving, and supportive. With a number 6 birthday, you are often domestically inclined and a devoted parent. The more sensitive among you will need to find a form of creative expression and are drawn to the world of entertaining or art and design. You may need to develop more self-confidence and overcome tendencies such as interfering, worry, and misplaced sympathy. The subinfluence of the number 11 month indicates that you have powerful emotions and a strong character. Although you possess high ideals, you need to be determined, with patience and perseverance, in order to attain your goals.
