Happy November, Marylanders! There's so much to be excited about and thankful for this month, but you may be wondering just what is in store. Well, Madame Maryland looked into her crystal ball -- here's what she saw. 

Aries

Is your sweet tooth calling to you, Aries? Well, instead of just picking up a cake from the store, why not challenge yourself to make some incredible desserts from scratch? Sell them, share them, or keep them for yourself -- the choice is yours. 

Taurus

It's only just November, but your mind is already on the holidays! Now's the time to beat the crowds and plan out the perfect gifts for the people on your list. Keep in mind that the perfect present doesn't have to be expensive, and if you're getting started this early, it doesn't have to be stressful, either. 

Gemini

Cancer

You could give someone some incredible inspiration this month, Cancer! Maybe a friend or a loved one is working on a creative project and you're playing muse. Your look, your humor, or your smarts could be exactly what someone else needs to get inspired to create something amazing. 

Leo

Who says hanging out with friends needs to be expensive? Skip the bars, the restaurants, or the clubs in favor of a no-frills hang at home. Pick up some snacks or some local goods from your favorite Maryland makers, and enjoy a low-key evening with the folks you love. 

Virgo

Don't jump to conclusions too quickly, Virgo. Before you apply your assumptions to reality, take some time to get all of the facts. If you act without thinking, you might end up embarrassing yourself. 

Libra

Scorpio

Sometimes, a simple apology can go a long way. If you've been thoughtless lately, take the time to truly apologize to someone in your life -- and if someone's coming to you with a heartfelt 'I'm sorry', take them seriously. 

Sagittarius

Getting a little more exercise doesn't have to be a drag! Instead of forcing yourself to go to the gym if you don't enjoy it, join a just-for-fun kickball league or team up with a buddy that you can go hiking or running with. It won't even feel like exercise.

Capricorn

Are the books on your nightstand gathering dust? It's time to get back into enjoying a good read, Cap. Treat yourself to a story that captures your imagination or a stranger-than-fiction historical account that you'll be telling everyone about all month long. 

Aquarius

Feeling energized this month? Put that energy to good use! You could put a lot of work into helping others and volunteering for a cause that gets you pumped. Your favorite causes could use that enthusiasm! 

Pisces

There's an art to being a gracious winner, Pisces. When things are going particularly well for you, it's important not to rub it in other people's faces, even if it's unintentional. Go with grace, even as you celebrate your wins!
