This week I look at the last week of November 2019, and the start of December, as well as the week of the First Quarter Moon in Pisces on Wednesday, Dec. 4.

Thursday, Nov. 28: Mercury connecting with Neptune and the Moon in the same place as Jupiter, both just before sunrise, indicate sweet dreams that for Sagittarians and Pisceans may be dreams that come true. A positive meeting of Venus and Uranus spells financial surprises for Scorpio. Paul Shaffer, bandleader for David Letterman, turns 70 today. On this day in 1979, New York Islanders’ goalie, Billie Smith became the first goalie to be credited with scoring a goal in the NHL.

Friday, Nov. 29: The Moon is in the constellation Capricorn. So is Saturn, and also Pluto. Today they all connect, bringing a serious need for self-confidence and a shot of solid willpower, especially to all Earth Signs – Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. Canadian funnyman Howie Mandel turns 64 today. Football great Joe Montana threw a record 22 consecutive successful pass completions for the San Francisco 49ers on this date in 1987.

Saturday, Nov. 30: If you stay up late on this last day of the month, be mindful of an idea in the hour just past midnight, an idea promising a hand with a better job or increased security. A playful mood ensues this afternoon and evening. It was on Nov. 30, 2004 that longtime Jeopardy champion Ken Jennings finally lost. He finished with the largest game show winnings of all time, with $2,520,700. And Mark Twain (his real name was Samuel Clemens) was born on this day in 1835, as Halley’s Comet zoomed overhead. He died on April 10, 1910, as Halley’s Comet made its next pass by Earth.

Sunday, Dec. 1: The Moon continues through the Sign of Aquarius and makes a friendly connection to the Sun and Jupiter, both in Sagittarius. This brings a steady self-confidence to activities and a helping hand that may seem a challenge later in the day. On Dec. 1, 1913, the Ford Motor Company fired up its first moving assembly line. Years later, Lucille Ball would make classic comedy of the idea. And The Divine Miss M, Bette Midler, turns 74 today.

Monday, Dec. 2: A kind of lazy start to the week. But Jupiter moves from its home sign of Sagittarius into the Constellation of Capricorn at 1:20 p.m. This brings steady good fortune to Capricorn, for a little over a year ahead, as Jupiter remains in Capricorn until Dec. 20, 2020. Jupiter is the ‘god’ planet, the bearer of good fortune and gifts. The age of atomic energy began on Dec. 2, 1942 as Enrico Fermi and a group of scientists were able to create the very first self-sustaining nuclear reaction. 

Tuesday, Dec 3: A super busy Tuesday sees the Moon move from Aquarius into Pisces in the early hours of the day. And Venus and Mars make a friendly connection in the morning, meaning male and female energies are balanced, so that moving projects forward is easier. And even enjoyable. And sexy! The day ends on a warm feeling of accomplishment. Galileo built his first telescope on this day in 1609. Ozzy Osbourne turns 71 today.

Wednesday, Dec. 4: This is the day of the First Quarter Moon in Pisces for 2019. This means the Sun in the constellation Sagittarius is exactly 90 degrees from the Moon in Pisces. And that makes for challenges where an all-knowing and totally self-confident fiery self is challenged by a super-sensitive and all-feeling emotional need. It ain’t easy. Find a way to make both happy is good advice. Today, “The Dude,” Jeff Bridges turns 70. Marissa Tomei celebrates birthday 55.

 Next week I look at the days before the Full Moon in Gemini on Dec. 12.
