Make a Major Splash

It takes patience and a good sense of strategy to win the work wars this month. The Sun will be in your private 4th House of Home Life until November 21, which may pull your attention toward your personal life and leave less time and energy for your career. However, this is a signal to turn inward and examine your work history. There may be unfulfilled desires and underdeveloped abilities that are ripe for exploitation. Are you getting the most out of your talents? If not, what do you need to do to make change that? Don't let fear be your primary motivator, though, since that tends to narrow your thinking and cut you off from your full creative capacity. Let desire guide you to dig deeply within and come up with the passion it takes to re-launch your career. A new level of intensity is needed, not just to get ahead, but to keep from falling behind. Starting your own business is certainly worthy of consideration, although if you're already self-employed some major changes may be required to increase profits.

Your enthusiasm and confidence are likely to grow when the Sun enters outgoing Sagittarius and your 5th House of Self-expression on November 21. This can thrust you back into full Leo mode with just that little edge of cockiness that serves you so well. As long as your performance is as stellar as your sales pitch, you'll be able to make a major splash. Be creative and come on strong if you believe in what you're doing. When you're hot like this, it's time to pour it on and take the risks you need to maximize your professional opportunities.
