You may feel a lot like Dorothy at the end of The Wizard of Oz. Yes, your feet are bruised and blistered, but you stayed the course—despite the allure of poppy fields, abduction by flying monkeys, and the bittersweet discovery that the Wizard you pinned your hopes on was a fake. So what do you have to show for all this? The realization that the answer you've been looking for has been with you all along. And it's not the knowledge that three clicks of the heels will spirit you home; it's the understanding that you have to be behind the choices you make. You have to be in your own corner. People will talk you out of things, circumstances can thwart you, and even the Stars may be misaligned. But if you're in your own corner, then things will turn out right eventually. It's why we travel these meandering yellow brick roads—because sometimes it's only by getting lost that we discover our life's true purpose. This is something you'll see for yourself when the Sun in Sagittarius forms a sextile to Pluto in Aquarius on November 21st.
