People born on November 17 are extremely intuitive and sensitive, with a powerful orientation toward others. Many times in their lives they will find themselves in the important role of integrator or facilitator.
One of the reasons these people are so good at encouraging others to work better together or ensuring that everyone gets on and things run smoothly is that they have a real understanding of the importance of compromise. Perhaps in their own lives they have had to learn the hard way that in the real world everyone can’t get exactly what they want and that there is always a certain amount of trade-off. For example, they may have given up their dreams of performing to teach instead, or have scaled down their career to devote more time to their family. Whatever the nature of the compromise, they have convinced themselves that greater satisfaction can be found by placing the interests of others above their own.
This rightfully earns them great respect from others, but the downside is that they can become overly dependent on the satisfaction they get from helping others. They may also have a tendency to over-identify with the concerns of others, neglecting their own interests and psychological growth in the process. Until the age of thirty-four these people are more likely to take chances but after the age of thirty-five they reach a turning point when they start to become more progressive, determined and serious in their approach to life. After the age of sixty-five they begin to place more emphasis on friendship and independence.
Whatever age they are, it is crucial that they don’t shut down emotionally and over-identify with the role of facilitator. As valuable and important as that role is, nothing is more valuable and important for their psychological growth—and for their ability to unlock the outstanding potential for success and happiness associated with this birthday—than their acknowledgment of and willingness to express their own dynamic creativity, independence and sense of purpose.

Those born on the 17th day of the month are ruled by the number 8 ( 1+7=8), and by the planet Saturn. Saturn carries with it a strong feeling of limitation and restriction as well as a highly judgmental aspect, increasing the danger that November 17 people may fall victim to self-righteousness. The connection between Saturn and Pluto (Scorpio's ruler) can emphasize the dominant, heavy, cold and repressive sides of their personalities. The number 8 carries a conflict between the material and spiritual worlds; those ailed by this number can be lonely, and prone to indulge in excess.
