Daily Horoscope for November 10

Scorpio

Once the Moon enters Virgo and your eleventh house of friends and associates, you'll feel optimistic and friendly again. Yesterday's frustrations are quickly forgotten, so make an effort not to hold a grudge. You may agree to disagree with someone as the Moon and Pluto clash: just remember that everyone is entitled to an opinion, no matter how wrong it is!
