Horoscope: October 27 - November 2

Sort the practical from emotional as they need to be handled in different ways. Words between key players must be measured for effect. Clarify misunderstandings or illusionary interpretations; it's time to face reality. Some experience endings or closure in various forms. Ambitious drives push things forward - ready or not. Those on the right path advance, while the wrong path brings problems. Tensions are explosive; power struggles intense. High level meetings bring results. Find common ground in confidential ways. Avoid threats or drawing lines in the sand.
