Born today, you tend to immerse yourself more naturally and more willingly in intellectual pursuits than in anything that might require physical prowess. You enjoy solitary learning far more than engaging in games and sports with others. However, you are also always eager to put that learning to the test against others in the professional arena. This, then, sums you up quite well: You learn on your own and use what you learn to compete with others.
When you do choose to work and play with others, you know how to bring out their best, and inspire them to achieve more, perhaps, than they had originally set their sights on -- and this gives you tremendous satisfaction. You like things to progress at a steady pace, whether fast or slow; you don't like sudden stops, starts or unexpected changes in direction -- whether they are literal or figurative.
Also born on this date are: Louisa May Alcott, author; Cathy Moriarty, actress; Kim Delaney, actress; Howie Mandel, comedian and TV host; Chuck Mangione, musician; C.S. Lewis, author; Busby Berkeley, choreographer.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- What you are trying to avoid is actually more likely to come to pass the harder you try to avoid it. Your focus is clearly misplaced!
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll be able to clear many obstacles out of your way today -- but one proves unusually stubborn. It's time to call for expert help.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll be wading knee-deep in personal issues throughout much of the day, which means you won't be able to progress as planned on a work project.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You've been trying to avoid making the only decision available to you, but today it may become quite clear that you cannot avoid it any longer.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- The signals you receive today have been sent to guide you through a minefield of tricky issues. You may be better off ignoring some of them.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- An idea spawned early in the day is likely to take off very quickly -- and you will want to remain in the lead as progress is made by many.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may be inundated with ideas today that you cannot put to practical use -- but you can make a very good plan based on at least one of them.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Recent events may have taken the wind out of your sails, but it's now time to meet a coming storm with confidence. You've got what it takes.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You'll have the chance to try something new today, but if you enjoy it too much, you'll run the risk of sacrificing something of value.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Putting your best foot forward may be more difficult than usual today, if only because you're not sure what is really expected of you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may not be able to follow every rule to the letter today because of an unexpected personal development. People will understand.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Your preparations must be complete today before you cut your ties to the "mother ship." Once you're on your own, you're really on your own!
