Your End Of November Playlist, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Aries: The Dreamers Disease 

1. You Get What You Give – New Radicals

2. Jump in the Line – Harry Belafonte

3. Don’t Hurt Yourself – Beyonce

“We only get what we give.” You’re at a point where you’ve detached yourself from this cycle of negative self-talk, knowing that at the end of the day, these thoughts don’t define you. There is power and strength that comes with knowing your worth and as a result, the universe is matching that energy. 

Taurus: Forgive But Never Forget

1. A 1000 Times – Hamilton Leithauser

2. Shadowboxer – Fiona Apple

3. I Said Goodbye to Me – Harry Nilson

“The tenth of November, the year’s almost over”. Every November is a time of contemplation as we reflect on who we were in January, and where we find ourselves now. This year was more than you could’ve ever predicted. Right now you feel stuck, wondering “What if?” “What if I said yes to that job?” “What if I said yes to this relationship?” The only option you have now is to move on with life. It’s important that you forgive yourself and the people who have wronged you, but never forget the lessons you’ve learned and the meaning those people brought to your life. 

Gemini: Welcome to the Shit Show

1. Happiness is a Warm Gun – The Beatles

2. Something For Your M.I.N.D – Superorganism

3. Hey Ladies – Beastie Boys

Honestly Gemini, though November has been a complete and utter shit show of a month for you, you still can’t help but laugh at it. After the dramatic events of November, you feel like you should be feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Stressed. Panicked. Sad. SOMETHING! Is this a sign of depression or a newfound sense of confidence and understanding that no matter what, this too shall pass? Fuck it, right? The world is on fire so we all gotta find some way to cope. Might as well laugh. 

Cancer: I Know We’ll Meet Again

1. My Love Mine All Mine – Mitski 

2. Witches – Alice Phoebe Lou

3. We’ll Meet Again – maruwhat

Your November was about accepting the fact that you’re growing up, getting older, and the people who surround you now won’t always be around. Friends who used to consider you a priority don’t anymore, and though it hurts, try not to take it personally—life just gets busy. Remember that people never truly leave us emotionally, only physically. When we feel a special connection with someone, it stays with us. Let go and trust that they’ll come back into your life when the time is right. Seek beauty in change and the specific purpose we each serve in one another’s lives. Sometimes we’re not meant to keep people with us forever. “We’ll meet again. Don’t know where, don’t know when. But I know we’ll meet again some sunny day.”

Leo: The Group Chat Council

1. 151 Rum – JID

2. Gold Teeth – BROCKHAMPTON

3. Hell of a Life – Kanye West

Last month, you found yourself fighting for your life in the group chat over all the updates you’ve been giving your best friends. They can be harsh at times, but know it’s because they love you. Finally, something seems to be clicking. This month is all about letting go of toxic cycles and getting comfortable with you. Instead of giving to ex-lovers who leave you feeling empty, get a hobby and give that love to your friends and family. Invite your friends over and cook for them to let them know how much you love them. Lovers come and go, but your friends are the one constant who will always be there. With that said, breaking cycles is going to take some work and the hard truth is that you are only human, and you’ve made mistakes.

Virgo: Am I the Problem?

1. Water Flow – Kyle

2. Peppers – Lana Del Rey

3. Tear You Apart – She Wants Revenge

At the start of November, life seemed incredibly promising. You thought you had an idea of what to expect and felt in complete control of your destiny, then life had other plans. Towards the end, you find yourself disappointed with yourself, the situation, and the other party involved. Rehashing over and over in your head what went wrong. You won’t get all the answers you’re looking for, unfortunately, and you might have to learn how to cope with that. November has been a reminder to not get too comfortable. You have a tendency to overthink things and expect too much from others. Remember, you can’t always control how others feel, but you do have some control over how you handle your own feelings and how you navigate moving forward.

Libra: Karma is a Bitch and So is My Ex

1. Heroes – David Bowie

2. Dancing With Myself – Billy Idol

3. Karma – Taylor Swift

To be honest, most of 2023 has been a huge letdown. Tiny moments with promises of opportunity have all amounted to disappointment after disappointment, but finally, in November, you’ve found relief. Whether you’ve finally gotten over that toxic ex or you’re finally getting the recognition you deserve at work, November has been the month of transitions and metamorphosis. Where others are starting to see you how you see yourself. Despite all the moments of despair, where you were left wondering when you’ll catch a break, now is your chance to be grateful for the sadness. Without the dark, how would we know the light? Just trust that by doing the right thing, karma will always have your back in the end. Now enjoy acquainting yourself with the new you. 

Scorpio: Fake it Till You Make it

1. Chick Habit – Bound

2. Lake Superior – The Arcs

3. I’ll Be Around – Cee Lo Green & Timbaland 

You’ve been given the opportunity to prove yourself, and yet you find yourself self-sabotaging everything. Throughout November, though, you’ve started to realize that the best thing to do is to just fake it till you make it. Focus on the version of yourself you wish to be. How do they dress? How do they act? Is this version of you more confident? More of a leader? Are they more generous? Whoever is the ideal version of yourself that you wish to be, pretend like you’re them right now. Walk like them. Talk like them. At that point, you’re not even faking it, you’re just making it.

Sagittarius: I’m the Main Character

1. My Body’s Made of Crushed Little Stars – Mitski 

2. On The Bound – Fiona Apple

3. Everybody Here Hates You – Courtney Barnett 

You spent your November giving energy to the people around you, and in the end, you realized there was nothing left you could give to yourself. After playing the supporting character for your friends and loved ones’ lives, you’ve realized that you can’t always play this two-dimensional role. What does that make you? The supporting character in your own life? No, remember that you’re actually the main character. Don’t think that because you’re saving energy for yourself then the people around you are going to hate you. November has been about your growth and the lessons you’ve learned. If you’re always solving other people’s problems, how will you solve your own? How will your character arc? 

Capricorn: Devil’s Advocate

1. The Horror – Spacehog

2. ENERGY – Beyoncé (feat. Beam)

3. Sticky – Raven Lenae

You don’t know how to trust yourself anymore, and so you turn to the advice of those around you. The thing is, only you know what’s right for you. No one will ever understand the intricacies of this situation better than you. Tune into what you’re feeling, block out the noise, and trust that. One thing you do know about yourself is that you always figure it out in the end. Look at what the universe is trying to tell you. What are the omens? What synchronicities do you keep discovering and what direction are they pointing towards? You’re quite practical and grounded Capricorn so “signs from the universe” are merely coincidences in your eyes, but let’s approach this analytically. If weird coincidence after weird coincidence keeps occurring, perhaps there is a reason. Perhaps there is a message you are missing. Whether this message is from your subconscious or the universe, there is still something there that is worth understanding. Play a little devil’s advocate and entertain what messages you’re meant to receive. 

Aquarius: Shut the Fuck Up

1. I Got My Mojo Working – Joyce Harris, Daylighters

2. Whole Lotta Love – Led Zeppelin 

3. Smack a Bitch – Rico Nasty

I kinda get the feeling not enough people have told you to shut the fuck up. Not in a mean way, but in a loving and nurturing sorta “shut the fuck up” kinda way. Like a well-needed smack in the face from that really blunt friend. November has humbled you in all the right ways. This month has mostly been a good one, though towards the end you’ve been feeling a little on edge. Find that one friend who keeps it real and ask them honestly how you can improve as a person. Sometimes it’s better to just listen. Your friends can see the things that you can’t. 

Pisces: Tell The World What You Want

1. Autumn Sweater – Yo La Tengo

2. Kids in America – Kim Wilde

3. Back on 74 – Jungle

Instead of hiding who you truly are and what you truly want out of life, November has helped you to open up and let the world know exactly what you want. How can you expect people to give you a chance when they don’t know what you want? Whether you’re a struggling artist or a small business owner, these side passions will only grow and flourish if you proudly label yourself as those things. You’re not defined by the job you do to stay afloat, you’re defined by the passions that give your life meaning.
