A baby born today has a Sun in Scorpio and a Moon in Aries if born before 5:46 a.m. (ET). Afterward, the Moon will be in Taurus.

Happy birthday for Friday, Nov. 3, 2017:
This year you will be subtle, yet you also will be more put-together and confident. Don’t worry so much about your choices or direction. Trust yourself. You are in the first year of a 12-year luck cycle, which often is considered the luckiest. If you are single, you could have many admirers and dates, if you so choose. If you want to make a commitment, the possibility of meeting someone special strengthens this year. If you are attached, the two of you make excellent choices together. If you respect each other’s differences, working through issues won’t be hard. TAURUS often plays devil’s advocate.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Friends surround you and have their own agenda. You might choose to use some of their ideas, and as a result, you could learn a lot. Note when you feel tired or bored. In that case, move on, as you need to stay with what you feel great doing. Tonight: Flow with the moment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
