November 17th Zodiac

November 17th is a date to connect the dots and make sense out of things that seem senseless to begin with. This is a time of great changes, breakthroughs and neurosis, when one's body needs to adjust to a much higher mission in life than meets the eye. People born at this time are different, individualistic, and their special talents are meant to push them forwards. Too much frustration could lead to all sorts of psychosomatic problems and show through health conditions that medicine doesn’t easily explain.

November 17th Horoscope

A person born on the 17th of November is fast, eccentric and different from the crowds, always seeking innovative solutions to problems at hand and approaches that others won’t always understand. Their special approach to life and its cycles makes them an outcast in some ways, and this could trouble them and make them less confident than they should be. In order to ground their ideas, incredible visions and processes in their mind, they need care for the wellbeing of their body and to commit to making their existence on Earth as pleasurable as possible instead of simply rushing through it. Once they take a step back and create some distance from their social circles, they realize that what they want can be reached only if they go against the tides and stand opposed those who set the norms.

A deep change of personality is expected in these individuals, as they separate from the image of their father, outer authority, or status they thought they wanted to pursue. Leading positions could get lost, their ego broken, before they continue in a direction that is humane and truthful to their inner drive.

Love and Emotions

A bit burdened by all those situations and close contacts that take away their freedom, they could be torn between their desire to connect with their partner in oneness, and their personal rush to be free from any form of pressure. They need a good friend by their side, someone who won’t limit their movement, but need to raise their awareness to the point where they can actually give freedom themselves. This requires absolute honesty and a relationship of clarity and loyalty with enough dedication on both parties to make it work.

Their young years are often colored by strange and changeable relationships, short-term commitments that aren’t really commitments at all, and approaches to intimacy that might be a bit out of tune from their heart's needs. Sexuality needs to be in touch with their deepest emotional cravings or it won’t give them the satisfaction they seek. To give in and trust someone, they are to found their romance on solid and understanding communication, shared causes and ideas, and enough personal freedom flowing both ways.

Purpose

They need enough distance to pull their ideas through and remember what they can do when they are centered and aware of their true role in the world.

What They Excel In

They are scientists, programmers and managers, turned to non-government facilities and projects that are freelance and turned to the wellbeing of the collective consciousness. They could fit into a team as if they were always meant to be a part of it, but also go to another extreme of standing out until they are cast out by circumstances or other people. Excellent friends to those who share the same frequency, they do well with people for as long as they keep their personal space intact.

Inside out and upside down, these individuals have something to show to the world, and this isn’t something others will easily see. The frustration coming from misunderstandings and stubbornness of those who choose to hold on to their comfort zone could make them feel lonely or as an outcast. Luckily, there is a tribe to search for and people who think alike will show up in their path more and more often as time goes by.
