(Never known to fail). O Most Beautiful Flower of Mt. Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. O Star of the sea, help me and show me here in, you are my mother. O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity (make request). There are none that can withstand your power. O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee (3 times.) Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands (3 times).

Say this prayer for three consecutive days. You must publish it and it will be granted to you. Grateful Thanks.

• Thanksgiving Tip: “Let one person be responsible for putting prep dishes, pots and pans in the dishwasher while another prepares the bird and side dishes for the table. You will be halfway done with dishes by the time the meal is over.” — M.A. in Washington • “Bake stuffing in muffin tins for individual servings. Also, if your family is anything like mine, we love the crispy parts, and everyone will get some this way!” — W.G. in Mississippi • “If you host a large family holiday gathering and serve a lot of side dishes, try this trick to them hot while waiting for other items to finish in the oven. Simply cover the bottom of a clean ice chest with a few trivets or a couple kitchen towels, and set casseroles and oven-cooked meats inside.

Most people use a cooler to keep things cold, but the insulation works just as well to keep hot things hot ... at least for a little while.” — M.E. in West Virginia • “An oldie but a goodie, and certainly considerate of dear old Mom: In my family, you come to Thanksgiving dinner with your own plastic containers for leftovers. If you don’t bring your own, you don’t go home with tomorrow’s lunch. Mom instituted this rule after the first Thanksgiving when all the kids had moved out. We practically cleaned her out of Tupperware!” — E.Y. in New Mexico • Recipe substitution: If you need 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice, use 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ginger, 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg and 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves.

“PERCY”

Hi, my name is Percival, but I am called Percy for short. I came from Georgia, my parents saved me from the side of the road and brought me back up to Rhode Island. I love snoozin’, nature walks, and meeting other pups, but I’m still scared of loud noises such as cars.

I’m so happy to be with a loving family now.

Happy Companion of Andrei and Jessica D.

Remember, you have the right to decide where you receive your healthcare.

er often-used anticoagulant in people with atrial fibrillation: This may be the source of confusion. However, warfarin needs to be dosed precisely, with frequent blood-level checks.

Turmeric is an antioxidant that does have some mild anticoagulant properties. However, it is not remotely powerful enough to do the job of protecting your wife adequately from stroke.

Omega-3 fish oils were once thought to reduce risk of atrial fibrillation; unfortunately, a 2013 study showed no benefit.

Hawthorn has two potential benefits: To a slight extent, it acts as a beta blocker (like metoprolol) as well as an anticoagulant. However, no trials have proven its effectiveness. It may interfere with both her medicines. The metoprolol and Eliquis have much more safety data. *** DR. ROACH WRITES: In a recent column, a reader noted she had a history of irritable bowel syndrome and described intermittent sharp rectal pain. My answer discussed control of her IBS. When I saw the column printed in the newspaper, weeks after I wrote it, I realized instantly that the diagnosis was probably proctalgia fugax, which is a spasm of the muscles of the anus. It is thought to be related to nerve compression.

I learned from my predecessor of this column, Dr. Paul Donohue, that sitting on a baseball or tennis ball can sometimes stop the pain instantly, and that creams and sometimes oral or inhaled medications can be effective in harderto-treat cases.

I also want to point out that I fell victim to something called an anchoring heuristic error. I read about my reader’s irritable bowel and became “anchored” to that diagnosis. Admitting an error and trying to understand why it happened are critical to reducing the likelihood of making the same error again. Anyone can make a mistake; it’s important to learn from them.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@ med.cornell.edu. © 2021 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

King Features Weekly Service

DEAR DR. ROACH: My wife has been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. Doctors tried an electrical cardioversion, but it came back after a few days. She is taking metoprolol and Eliquis. We have read about the supplements red clover, turmeric, omega-3 and hawthorn. Should she discontinue the pharmaceuticals and take supplements instead? — J.C. ANSWER: Please don’t do that, and let me explain why.

Atrial fibrillation is an abnormal heart rhythm. The goal of treating it is first to relieve symptoms, such as fast heart rate and dizziness, and second, to reduce the risk of stroke. Blood clots can form inside the heart when the atria are fibrillating (a chaotic, non-coordinated muscle movement).

Those clots can break off and go into the blood vessels of the brain, causing cell death and loss of function in that part of the brain. That’s a stroke.

Your wife is taking metoprolol to slow the heart rate. Atrial fibrillation causes the ventricles to go too fast, causing a sensation of fast heart rate and palpitations. Metoprolol, a beta blocker, protects the heart from damage from a too-fast heart rate, in addition to relieving symptoms. Apixaban (Eliquis) is a powerful anticoagulant, reducing the risk of clot formation.

Red clover is usually used in herbal medicine for its estrogen-like activities.

Unfortunately, estrogens INCREASE clot risk, so this herbal medicine absolutely should not be used by someone at risk for clots. Sweet clover hay is the source of warfarin (Coumadin), anoth-

New Dog Has Appetite for Doggie Door Flap

Real Estate for Sale

DEAR PAWS CORNER: Help!

Our recently adopted dog “Mollie,” a medium-sized mixed breed, thinks the doggie door flap leading outside to the backyard is delicious. Rather than using it to go in and out, she grabs the edge, chews and tugs on it.

She growls when she does this. And she insists that we open the back door for her to go out. How do we fix this? — Mary T., San Antonio DEAR MARY: You’ll need to address this in two steps. First, you need to figure out if Mollie is chewing due to boredom or attention-seeking, or if she has separation anxiety due to trauma in her past. If she’s only chewing on the door flap and nothing else in the house, maybe there’s an old memory surfacing.

Second, you’ll need to repair or replace the damaged flap and train Mollie to go in and out of it confidently.

Here are a few methods: 1. Divert and distract: As soon as Mollie starts trying to chew the door, call her name to stop her and then distract her away from the door with something else that interests her, like a favorite toy or a treat.

2. Behavior training at the same time each day: Note when Mollie is most likely to start chewing on the door.

Then, conduct 10 minutes of behavior training in basic commands.

3. Train Mollie to use the flap correctly: Once she’s responding well to basic commands, add “going thru the flap” to her training. The AKC has a great tutorial here: www.akc.org/expert-advice/ training/dog-not-using-dog-door/ and this trainer’s video shows the clicker-treat method: www.youtube.com/ watch?v=-R_k4_UHDeA If these methods don’t work, consider a professional trainer to help identify and work through Mollie’s fears or bad habits.

Cash-out vs. change term mortgage refinancing Mortgage refinancing has long been a valuable option for homeowners looking to save money. Refinancing has become an especially enticing option since the onset of the pandemic, as mortgage interest ranks have sunk to historic lows. Despite that, a recent survey from Bankrate found that 74 percent of homeowners who have had the same mortgage since before the pandemic have not refinanced.

Homeowners who haven’t yet refinanced but are considering doing so can consider two types of mortgage refinancing options.

• Cash-out: According to the mortgage experts at MortgageCalculator.org, a cash-out mortgage extracts equity from a home. Homeowners in the United States have more than $6 trillion in untapped home equity, and that can be used to pay for various expenses, including home improvements, tuition and medical costs.

The financial experts at Nerd Wallet note that a cash-out refinance works by replacing an existing mortgage with a new home loan for more money than homeowners owe on their homes. The difference is then given to the homeowners in cash, which they can use for the aforementioned expenses or other costs, including paying down high-interest debts.

Lower interest rates typically entice homeowners to refinance, but if homeowners are solely looking for lower rates, then a cash-out refinance is probably not the best option.

• Change term: Also known

as a rate-and-term refinance, a change term is a refinance characterized by shifting to a lower interest rate. Homeowners also may refinance utilizing a change term to shift from an adjustable rate mortgage to a fixed-rate loan. Change term refinancing also is popular for homeowners who want to switch from the standard 30-year fixed rate to a 15-year fixed rate. This can shorten the term of the loan, saving homeowners a lot of money in interest over the 15-year period.

However, homeowners should note that switching from a 30year to a 15-year loan will lead to higher monthly payments.

This switch might be most suitable to individuals earning significantly higher salaries than they were at the start of their initial mortgages and/ or homeowners whose cost of living has recently decreased due to certain changes, such as children graduating from college. Homeowners also may consider change term mortgages to lower their monthly payments. In such instances, they simply swap out an existing 30-year mortgage for a new 30-year mortgage with a lower interest rate. That can save money up front, but homeowners should calculate the long-term interest costs of switching to a new 30-year mortgage. The lower monthly payments might be tempting, but homeowners may ultimately pay more in interest over the life of both loans by switching to a new 30-year mortgage.

Thankful for so many things At a time when we can easily find things to complain about, Veterans Day and Thanksgiving remind us to focus on things to be grateful for.

When American men and women decide to devote their time to the military to defend and fight for our country, we can be grateful that they sacrificed their lifestyles and family lives to work for us all.

During the last two years with Covid creating unfortunate situations for so many folks, there are also some who have found their positions to be in demand and have provided services and products needed to keep us going in challenging conditions.

We can be thankful for those folks who showed up for work regardless of the risk at hand.

It is times like now that we can consider perhaps making a donation or volunteering our time to help those who are in need.

Donating to your favorite charity is a nice way to help others.

Volunteering your time can make a difference in someone’s life.

Delivering meals to senior citizens who are confined to their homes will allow them a balanced meal and the daily visit, even for a few minutes, can be the bright spot in their day.

Donna DeLauro Senior Real Estate Specialist RE/MAX Real Estate Center Founder of Mature Matters Sending a holiday card or care package to our troops serving our country is a great way to show gratitude for their service. Go to https:// militaryholidaycardchallenge.com/ for guidelines.

A sick child would love to receive a get-well card or a small gift to cheer them up while in the hospital.

Go to https://www.lifespan.org/hasbro-childrenshospital/ways-to-give for ways to give.

If you have a product or service you wish to donate, be sure to research that organization’s credibility. Although there are many great charities and foundations set up to legitimately help, there are

some who have names sounding trustworthy but are scammers.

I would like to take this time to thank a few folks who have helped me through the past year.

First and foremost, I am grateful for my family for being the most awesome family I could ask for.

Thank you to my clients who put their trust in me to help them navigate the process of buying or selling their homes.

Thank you to ReMax Real Estate Center for providing me the tools I need to do my job and support systems to help whenever needed.

Thank you to the team at Beacon Communications for allowing me to submit my articles to you. I hope you find them informative.

Take a Room-by-Room Approach to Renovations FAMILY FEATURES

When your home needs updating in multiple spaces, you may find yourself wondering where to begin. Prioritizing the rooms you use most and those in the greatest need of attention can allow you to work through your renovation at a reasonable pace while bringing greater enjoyment to your home one room at a time.

There’s no rule about where to start; it all comes down to your budget and how your family uses your home. The true beginning of any project is defining your vision for the finished space. These on-trend ideas can help you get started.

Multi-Purpose Room Makeover If you spend any time on social media, you know laundry and multi-purpose mudroom updates are popular. Having a well-organized, attractive workspace can make the less glamorous aspects of homeownership more appealing. Today’s mudrooms are more than a pass-through space. With thoughtful planning, you can create a more functional area for laundry, a drop area for book bags and other daily necessities and even grooming space for a pet or a potting area for an avid gardener.

With a space that gets used in so many ways, cabinetry plays an important role in keeping your cleaning equipment and belongings tidy and neat.

You’ll be able to find shapes and sizes to fit practically any need you can imagine, like tall hideaways for brooms or gardening tools and low-profile options that can double as bench seating. If your footprint allows it, consider an island for added storage and workspace.

Updated Kitchen A stylish, functional kitchen is a must for anyone who enjoys culinary arts or the simple pleasure of gathering family or friends around the dinner table.

Cabinetry is a focal point in most kitchens, so it’s an element that many homeowners give plenty of consideration. Today’s looks are commonly painted, and black is a surprisingly neutral option that can be adapted to numerous styles.

Medium density fiberboard is ideal for painted cabinetry because it provides a smooth surface for even coating and stands up to the temperatures and humidity commonly found in the kitchen.

For a contemporary but classic look, try Wellborn Cabinet’s Hartford door finished in Onyx paint and dressed with bronze pulls and moulding for an attractive look from floor to

(almost) ceiling. To create visual interest and contrast, take a different approach with your island, such as a Concord Maple door in Drift Slate finish. Don’t forget to give extra attention to what’s inside the cabinets, too.

Options like adjustable slide-out shelving make it easy to access even more storage space.

Bathroom Refresh Whether you’re breathing new life into an outdated bathroom or converting unused space into a new one, practical design is essential. This is especially true if you’re working on a full bath with a smaller footprint where storage space is at a premium.

While a powder room may not require much in the way of storage beyond space for extra rolls of toilet paper and hand towels, a full bath demands much more.

Using the right cabinetry for your vanity can create architectural detail that makes even this small space feel special. The clean lines of a Preston door style in medium density fiberboard is a practical and eye-pleasing option. To complement the vanity, consider built-in cabinets in the corner.

This is a smart way to use square footage that might otherwise be wasted. For visual interest, match the cabinet door style to the vanity but in a complementary way. One on-trend example is a soft, creamy Gray Mist vanity paired with a rich Willow gray.

Make function a priority with deep drawer dividers, sliding shelves and other creative solutions, such as repurposing a silverware tray insert to organize your toiletry drawer.

YOUR FIRST DINNER DATE IS ON US!

When you look over the colorful choices of squash in various goofy shapes and sizes at your market this week, tell your kids to snoop carefully to find an extra-fun variety you may have forgotten about or never tried — spaghetti squash!

The oblong, light-yellow squash, which is approximately 8-10 inches in length, is packed with healthy nutrients, is low in calories, high in fiber and, best of all, has a super kid appeal because there's a surprise inside.

To the delight of your entire family, you'll discover that once baked, the flesh of the squash comes out in long strands that look like noodles. Its buttery, mild and slightly sweet flavor is ideally suited to be topped with tomato sauce and grated Parmesan mimicking a bowl of traditional spaghetti.

On another occasion, serve it as a tasty side dish tossed with pesto, a garlic-flavored herb butter or mixed vegetables and feta cheese. And when you prepare a roast, set the sliced meat and juices over the "noodles" for a robust weekend meal.

Here are four easy steps for preparing spaghetti squash, with a few tips tossed in to make easier work when handling it.

1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Wash the outside of a 2 1/2 to 3 pound spaghetti

squash and pat dry. Cut in half lengthwise. (Like most varieties of winter squash, it can be difficult to cut through the hard shell. I pierce the squash in several places with the tip of a knife and put it in the microwave for 2-3 minutes or more depending on its size to soften it a bit. Let it rest for a few minutes and slice in half with a sharp knife.)

2. Scoop out the seeds. A melon baller and small ice-cream scoop are easyto-handle kitchen tools for school-age kids to use if they are assisting you with this step.

Factors to focus on when discussing driving with seniors Around 45 million licensed drivers on the roads today are age 65 and older.

Driving is one way for seniors to stay independent and live fuller lives, but traffic crashes are a leading cause of injury and death for older adults, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Older adults are more than twice as likely than younger drivers to report having medical conditions that make it difficult to drive, and usage of certain medications can further affect the ability to drive safely.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration urges older drivers, friends and family to talk about driving safety. The following are some points to emphasize during such discussions.

• Physical fitness: Driving is more than just understanding road signs and how the car works. Safe driving requires sufficient physical fitness to operate a vehicle. Exercising and being active by walking daily, stretching and performing strength-training exercises can make it easier to steer and get in and out of the car.

• Seat belts: Seat belts save countless lives. Some older drivers may have grown up during a time when seat belts were not standard on vehicles and may not recognize the importance of wearing them. However, seat belts are crucial each and every time drivers get behind the wheel.

• Vision checkups: The CDC recommends that adults have their vision checked by an eye doctor at least once per year. Corrective lenses or glasses also should be worn if they are needed to improve vision.

• Medications management: Individuals should exercise caution when taking medications, especially sleep and pain medications. Even cold remedies can affect driver safety, advises the Mayo Clinic. Always read medication labels and pharmacy inserts to determine if it’s safe drive while on a given medication.

• Limitations and modifications: Getting older may come with certain physical

limitations that can be remedied with a few modifications. An occupational therapist may be able to recommend assistive devices, such as steering wheel covers that make gripping the wheel easier, or a swiveling seat pad to make getting out of a vehicle less strenuous.

Aging drivers and their families can focus on various factors to keep such motorists safe when they’re behind the wheel.

Figural bottles were often used to package medicines as well as alcoholic beverages in the 19th and early 20th centuries. A cabin-shaped bottle with the embossed name “E.G. Booz Whiskey” led customers to use the word booze for drink, a term still in use. But how did a pig-shaped bottle become one of the most popular bottles to encourage buyers of medicine?

There are early 1800s pig-shaped bottles made of both glass and ceramics. The tail is the spout, and the bottle was displayed on its four short legs.

Suffolk Bitters, a medicine with a high percentage of alcohol, used the bottle about 1870. If you drank a lot, it made you happier and pain-free like any alcoholic beverage. Bitters were considered a medicinal drink, not alcohol.

The original amber Suffolk pig bottle had its name in raised letters on one side with “Philbrook & Tucker, Boston” on the other. There have been reproductions made in other colors and similar pigs with other names. At a Glass Works Auction online there were 14 bids before the new owner paid $1,170.

But why pigs for a product that doesn’t contain any parts of a pig? It is probably to encourage sales because there was a belief in the 1870-1890s that pigs bring prosperity and the drink in a pig bottle would bring wealth. *** My mother says her bracelet is made of bake-a-lite. What is that?

Bakelite is a plastic developed in the early 1900s. It was used for jewelry by the 1930s by major designers. The art deco jewelry became very popular. Bakelite was needed for the war in the 1940s, so the jewelry wasn’t made for about five years. About 1997, the deco jewelry was rediscovered by collectors, and books were published with information and color pictures

RHODE ISLAND SHELLFISH SEAFOOD MARKET Open Monday–Friday 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM

1670 MAIN ST., WEST WARWICK • 401-744-0311 www.rishellfish.com

by Jennifer Coates For Peter Caswell, the owner and founder of Rhode Island Shellfish Co., there is nothing more noble in the ocean than the lowly quahog. For those who might be unfamiliar with the Atlantic’s delicious shellfish, the quahog is simply a kind of “edible clam with a very hard shell.” Quahogs are harvested off the shores of our state’s plentiful shores and find their way to the kitchens of home cooks and restaurant chefs from sea to shining sea.

Peter Caswell has loved quahogs his entire life. In fact, some of his fondest memories involve digging for quahogs as a young boy with his father; today, that tradition continues with his own sons. This inseparable part of his upbringing, and the one he is passing on to his boys, is only part of the reason Caswell is connected to the sea, but it is almost everything about why he opened RI Shellfish Co. in 2016.

Today, this business ~ inspired by this love of fresh fish (and the lowly quahog!) ~ offers FRESH off the dock seafood for both home delivery and from his FRESH seafood retail shop in West Warwick. The motto of RI Shellfish is “Seriously Fresh Fish ~ Shore to Door”! When Peter chose this catchphrase, he wasn’t messing around.

He wasn’t lying either. RI Shellfish Co. literally uses seafood fresh out of the waters of the Atlantic. Everything that Caswell sells, and everything he serves, is harvested or

Meet the lowly quahog, harvested fresh from the Atlantic and prepared into these incomparable Stuffies, waiting for you (or available for home delivery) at Rhode Island Shellfish, Co. in West Warwick.

caught fresh every day. This is a promise he makes, and one he keeps.

One might be able to guess Caswell’s specialty at RI Shellfish: anything to do with those favorite, locallysourced quahogs. It has become one of Caswell’s personal missions to showcase the quahogs’ many varied preparations, including his famous, mouth-watering “Stuffies.” His recipe for his Stuffies is that of his cherished late mother Annie. It was by her side where he first learned to cook, and it is in her honor that today, the commercial kitchen where all his food is prepared is named “Annie’s Kitchen.”

For those Stuffies, each clam is first hand-shucked, then the meat is ground and combined with their very own pork sausage, vegetables, spices and crackers. The perfect-size shell is hand-stuffed and that Stuffie is then officially ready to eat (or to have vacuum-packed and sent right to your door!)

Peter’s Stuffies join a diverse and crowd-pleasing array of other shellfish options that are available at the retail market. These include creamy New England Clam Chowder, indulgent Lobster Mac & Cheese, Fried Whole Belly Clams, Baked Scrod, Shrimp Fettucini Alfredo, Clam Cakes and more. Check out the whole menu for home delivery on their website.

Rhode Island Shellfish Co’s. in-store retail market is located at 1670 Main Street in West Warwick. Home delivery is available Monday through Saturday. Call 401744-0311 or order online at www.rishellfish.com. You can find them on Facebook (RI Shellfish) and Instagram (RI Shellfish Co).

Q: A:

Is the drama “All Rise” ever coming back? — J.T. CBS announced this past summer that it would not be renewing the legal drama “All Rise” for a third season. Greg Spottiswood, who created and ran the show, was fired by Warner Bros. following allegations of misconduct and racial insensitivity in the writers’ room. Even though a successor was named toward the end of season two, CBS chose not to renew the show.

The good news is that OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network) has resurrected it!

Star Simone Missick and most of the original cast will return for a 20-episode third season some time in 2022.

It doesn’t appear that Marg Helgenberger will return as Judge Brenner because she was cast in the NBC drama “Getaway” after “All Rise” was originally canceled. In addition to airing on the OWN channel, episodes will be available to stream via Hulu and HBO Max. *** I recently saw supermodel Niki Taylor on a cosmetics commercial. She was always my favorite. What has she been doing in recent years, and how old is she now? -– B.B. Niki Taylor was born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in 1975, and signed a contract with Cover Girl cosmetics when she was 18. She went on to model for Liz Claiborne, Versace, Anne Klein and Gap. In the past two decades, she’s co-hosted “Make Me a Supermodel,” with Tyson Beckford, was a competitor on “Celebrity Apprentice,” and appeared on several talk shows. In April, the 46-yearold Taylor signed on with Cover Girl again, the first time with them since her contract ended in 2000.

Sadly, Taylor suffered two major tragedies during the height of her fame. In 2001, she was in a terrible car accident in Atlanta, sustaining severe internal injuries and flatlining twice. Just six years earlier, Niki lost her younger sister, 17-year-old model Krissy Taylor, to a rare heart condition. *** I keep hearing about a show called “Succession.” What is

it about? Is there much language or violence? — E.K. “Succession” is a satirical HBO series about a dysfunctional family that owns one of the world’s largest media conglomerates. Scottish actor Brian Cox (“Deadwood”) plays the family patriarch, whose four adult children compete for control of the family’s empire. It stars recent “Saturday Night Live” host Kieran Culkin, Jeremy Strong, Sarah Snook and Alan Ruck. Now in its third season, “Succession” has amassed several Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Lead Actor for Jeremy Strong.

Despite the cutthroat dynamic onscreen, Cox assured fans during an appearance on the “Late Late Show” that the actors all “gelled from day one” and became a family very, very quickly. As for its content, it’s definitely for mature audiences and contains a lot of explicit language, but not much in the way of violence. A great website for researching whether a series, film or book is for you or appropriate for your children is CommonSenseMedia.org.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Ask your partner for an explanation of what seems to be a sign of strain in your relationship. The sooner you understand the problem, the sooner you can both act to resolve it.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A new challenge in the workplace holds an exciting promise for the future. But be aware of the fact that you haven’t been told about all the demands you might have to meet.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Your financial picture brightens as you get into sorting out realistic goals and those that are not reachable at this time. “Caution” remains your fiscal watchword.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You’re deep into your new project, and that’s just fine. But don’t neglect your family and friends.

Spending time with people you care for is always a wise investment.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Past feelings are suddenly reawakened. This could make you emotionally vulnerable. Be careful about decisions you might be asked to make at this time.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You’ve come to a place where you’ll be facing important decisions that can affect your future. Rely on your strong moral compass to guide you toward making the right choices.

BORN THIS WEEK: You’re gifted with both natural wisdom and wit — a good combination for success as a writer or teacher and, most importantly, a parent.

November 15, 2021

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This is a good time to let that intrepid Aries temperament take charge. Your strong leadership will help settle those still-unresolved situations. Support comes from a surprising source.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your problem-solving talents shine as you move to cool down heated emotions.

You also inspire trust in all parties when you act with careful consideration of their feelings.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) That long-delayed commitment begins to look better to you. But there’s still a crucial fact or two you need to know about it. A health problem needs to be taken care of.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Don’t waste time trying to learn why someone you relied on is wavering in his or her support of your stand on a workplace issue. Move on with the help of more steadfast allies.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Relationships enter a brighter period, both at home and in the workplace. Prospects also look good for single Leos and Leonas, who can expect a welcome visit from Cupid.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Those mixed signals that were complicating your life are giving way now to clear, definitive guidelines.

This makes it easier for you to weigh your options and make decisions.
