People born on November 3 have all the strength and staying power of a long-distance runner. They are ambitious and energetic but know how to bide their time and go the distance to achieve their goals.
With the ability to keep calm under the most intense pressure, they can earn the reputation for being extremely cool, sometimes ruthless, customers. At times they may appear to be hesitant or passive, but all the while they are simply waiting for the right moment to strike out and achieve their goals. If there is one thing, however, that can unsettle the masterful self-control of these people it is defeat or failure. They are terrible losers and, instead of trying to find alternative solutions, they may waste tremendous energy on selfrecrimination and in some cases this can lead to depression.
Although they can be overwhelmingly negative at times, the upside is that when things are going well they can be energetic, charismatic, pleasure loving, and stimulating. Those lucky enough to catch them in one of these moods will be enchanted and uplifted. They can also be compassionate and supportive during these moments, with a deep understanding of the feelings of others. Unfortunately, when it comes to understanding themselves they lack similar insight, so they should look deep within to understand why the need to win can sometimes overpower their need to feel happy.
Despite being moody and intense as a teenager, after the age of twenty they will acquire a more optimistic and expansive outlook; this may lead them to broaden their horizons to seek truth, travel or study. After the age of forty-nine there is another turning point when financial and emotional stability is likely to take center stage. Throughout their lives they will always be highly competitive warriors, but once they understand that the only battle really worth winning is the one within themselves they can apply their progressive intellect, superb communication skills and almost superhuman endurance to the only cause that’s always a winner one that furthers the common good.
☆ On the dark side:Ruthless, depressive, closed
☆ At your best:Persistent, focused, progressive
Those born on November 3 are fighters with the stamina and endurance to hang in there, no matter what. They are highly competitive, if not actually contesting others then striving for their own private achievements and goals. The idea of bettering their position or standing occurs naturally to them. Under pressure they are usually cool, although they often reserve an explosive power which others can palpably sense. A certain deadly calm descends on them in trying situations that does not bode well for their opponents. In executing attacks against foes, both men and women born on this day can be quite merciless.
November 3 people know how to wait. They do not like rushing anything they do, and generally believe that time is on their side. They may give others the impression that they are procrastinating, but remain focused on the precise moment to act. Therefore November 3 people rarely risk defeat due to impulsive or premature maneuvers. Their tactics can still take their opponents by surprise all right, but probably because of meticulous calculation rather than impulse or intuition.
Those born on this day indeed do not like to lose. Their mania to win out in life can cost them dearly when they are faced with bad fortune. As a matter of fact, a run of bad luck emotionally or financially can wipe out their moral reserves, leading to depressive and, in extreme cases, suicidal feelings. Thus. November 3 people are not only winners but also sufferers, and they can really get down into their suffering, clam up and let others know about it with one hollow- eyed look. On the other hand, when they are in a good mood (usually because things are going well for them) they can be extremely entertaining. On such highs they can even go off in a manic direction.
November 3 people's powers of concentration are usually excellent, as are their mental and physical development, but the expression of their feelings is often blocked. They may send up a wall against any probing of their inner thoughts and emotions, resisting most personal examination.
Yet they can be quite sympathetic and empathic toward others, readily understanding their problems. Very deep people, those born on this day are nevertheless unlikely to fathom their own profundity.
Not only do November 3 people make bad enemies because of their physical presence and intelligent battle tactics, but also because of their satirical and sarcastic bent. They are quite capable of tearing an opponent to pieces verbally. November 3 people must learn to temper their aggressive side and to express their emotions in a more harmonious and flowing manner.
Fighting their own intolerance as well learning to be more forgiving, accepting and open are crucial to their personal and spiritual development.
Power Thought:I release all feelings of failure. My wonderful future is in my hands,Losing with grace can be an important win
Those born on the 3rd day of the month are ruled by the number 3 and by the planet Jupiter. Those ruled by the number 3 try to rise to the highest positions in their sphere, and November 3 people are no exception. The coupling of jupiterian energy with that of Pluto and Mars (Scorpio's ruler and co-ruler, respectively) can signal that the aggressively enthusiastic energies of November 3 people have a propensity to spin out of control, or perhaps be driven down inside, with disastrous consequences. Those ruled by the number 3 love their independence, and are therefore happiest when working for themselves, or in a position with a high degree of autonomy.
The 3rd card of the Major Arcana is The Empress, who symbolizes creative intelligence. She is the perfect woman, the ultra-feminine, Mother Earth nurturer, who embodies our dreams, hopes and aspirations. This card represents positive traits of charm, grace and unconditional love, but also negative traits of vanity and affectation, as well as an intolerance for imperfection.
☆Luck maker:(Work through worst-case scenarios)Before you act, think about the worst that could possibly happen for you, then produce a better outcome in your mind. Even if the worst does happen, you’ll know you can put another plan into action to control the damage.
You’re drawn to people born on October 23 to November 21:You are both resilient and uninhibited; if you can learn to give and take, you have great potential for happiness.
Idealistic and romantic, people born on November 3 can’t see the point of half-hearted relationships. They want to be involved with someone they can share their heart and their life with; anything less is simply a waste of their energy. They long to find their soul mate and, like most things in their lives, what these people long for they tend to get.
People born on this day tend to hide their emotions and true intentions both professionally and personally, and as a result they can be prone to stress and depression. Cognitive behavioral techniques to help them reprogram their thoughts from negative to positive can be extremely beneficial, as can counseling or psychotherapy. As far as diet and lifestyle are concerned, pleasure seeking is the order of the day and they need to go easy on saturated fat and rich, exotic food because digestive problems and weight gain can be a problem. Spending more time cooking and eating at home rather than dining out or doing the party rounds is recommended, as is a healthy nutritious and balanced diet along with plenty of vigorous exercise, such as running, cycling and team sports. Carrying a malachite crystal will help bring a sense of calmness and ease, boosting their mood during times of depression, as will wearing the color orange.
November 3 people must beware of their tendency to suffer and to control their emotions at all cost. This behavior can lead to all sons of psychological and physical problems. Psychologically, depression and self-destructive impulses are a threat. On the physical side, internal abdominal (particularly excretory) organs may be adversely affected, which in extreme cases can mean malignancies, kidney stones or ulcerative conditions. Most November 3 people love to eat, and may not be sufficiently concerned about their high fat, alcohol and protein intake until they suffer physical symptoms. Therefore, either their eating habits will have to be regulated in some manner, or they must balance their indulgences with a healthy dose of exercise.
These people are often drawn to professions where they can exert an influence over others, such as education, management or entertainment. Other career options include business, negotiation, financial advice, writing, and the healing or caring professions.
The life path of people born on this day is to learn to be more spontaneous and forgiving in their approach to life. Once they are able to be more tolerant, their destiny is to transform the progressive ambitions that drive them into a reality that benefits not just themselves but others.
Learn how to let go. Suffering and resentment can drop away if you let them. Be more realistic about your enthusiasm. Beware of indolence. Your enjoyment of pleasures may have to be tempered.
