The armistice that ended fighting in World War I took effect at 11 a.m. on the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, which is why Veterans Day, Remembrance Day and similar observances fall on Nov. 11. The repeating ones also inspire a mythology of angels, wishes and spiritual messages. Take a moment to remember the ones who changed our world.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Someone once took a chance on you, and you've been benefiting from that decision ever since. Today, you'll get a chance to do the same for someone else. You'll love being the person who says, "Go on. You've got this."

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have a little habit you picked up from a loved one. Maybe it's how you make coffee, fold a towel or greet a stranger. You'll catch yourself doing it today and feel close to that person.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You'll hear a phrase you haven't heard in years, spoken by someone who couldn't possibly know its significance to you. What are the odds? Entertain the possibility that someone is saying hello.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You know what someone needs before they ask. You'll show up with the right thing at the right time. They'll wonder how you knew. You may wonder yourself, but you'll be glad you followed the impulse.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There are kindnesses you barely remember performing, but the recipient of your care does. A perfectly ordinary moment in your life became an important one in theirs. By just being you, you make a difference people pay forward.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There's someone whose advice you still hear in your head. Today, you'll face a situation that calls for exactly what they taught you. You'll handle it beautifully and perhaps pass the wisdom along to someone who needs it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You'll wish you could talk to someone who's no longer around. Then you'll find yourself imagining how they'd comfort you, right down to their choice of words. And in a way, now you're having a conversation on a different plane.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The one you admire was once in a situation similar to yours, and their choices changed everything. You have everything you need and the courage to follow their example to create the result you've been focusing on for months now.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You'll make a wish that seems extravagant even to you. Good. Why waste a perfectly magical date on something you could arrange by Thursday? Give yourself permission to want the improbable. You'll enjoy imagining how it might happen.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Someone will ask you for help with a problem you've solved before. You'll save them hours of frustration with a few well-chosen words. They'll think you're a genius, and you'll be glad for the opportunity to help.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You'll come across a photograph, letter or object that deserves a better home than the back of a drawer. You'll share it with someone who will treasure it. Love and history are intertwined.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll have a strong feeling about who you should be reaching out to. Follow it. They'll be especially glad to hear from you today. Whether you call it intuition, coincidence or angelic intervention, the conversation feels like kismet.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 11). In your Year of Requisite Variety, you'll reach your goals because your flexibility and range give you plenty of ways forward. The eclectic mix of skills you've collected over the years serve you well. More highlights: You'll have the funds to make a move you've thought about for years. You'll do what you love almost daily. A logistical adjustment will favorably transform your social life. Aries and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 15, 2, 20 and 25.
