SOCIAL SCENE
ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20
Seeing winning and losing as opposites is unhelpful. It is, though, our culturally-entrenched perspective. When the only alternative to winning is being the loser, winning becomes everything. Yet, even though great athletes lose sometimes, their place in sporting history remains intact. You want to succeed. But, if you’re overwhelmingly focused on attaining first place, you risk losing sight of what’s motivating you. It’s time to dampen your burning desire to win, and reignite your passion.

LEO JUL 24 - AUG 23
We are who we are - nothing can change that. Except, that’s not quite true. What is life, but a process of discovery? With every fresh experience, we learn something new about the world, ourselves, and our place in that world. What sort of person could experience the infinite variety of things life throws at us, without being changed in small, imperceptible ways? Change is something to embrace. Let your recently acquired wisdom guide you to make a great decision today.
Are you ready for great news about the rest of October? Call 1900 959 005. The Full Moon arrives in Aries, opposite Mercury, while Mars and Venus converge today. But it’s the conjunction of harmonious Venus and passionate Mars that demands our attention. This event occurs every couple of years, and it always has an impact on relationships. It’s one of those moments when self-assertion and co-operation can work hand in hand. Highlighted by the powerful Full Moon, it suggests that an important understanding can be reached. Let’s hope it affects those in positions of power, as well as us.
TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21
Her surface might not seem hospitable, but Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love. And today, she conjuncts Mars, in a part of the sky that, for Taureans, is concerned with romance, generosity and whole-heartedness. Since Mars is the planet of passion, you can expect interesting developments in matters of the heart. Your creative faculties will also flourish. So don’t be afraid to try something new. Add the Full Moon to the mix - and, although not everything will be perfect, a lot will. Make the rest of October great! For your month-ahead forecast, call 1900 959 005.
VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23
There’s a British sitcom character called Swiss Toni. He’s an absurd car salesman who lectures his young assistant about how to be an appealing lover (and proving himself inept at that and everything else). You have no need of a Swiss Toni in your life. As Venus and Mars converge in your sign, a particularly attractive quality of yours is strengthened. So, rather than thinking of this merely as a role you’re playing, it’s simply a different side of you that’s being revealed.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 22
Yesterday, we talked about the Full Moon bringing a sense of protection. But, your astrological outlook is nuanced. The Full Moon acts as a source of celestial assistance. It suggests that a realisation is on its way. The security being bestowed on you is reinforced by the alignment made by Venus and Mars. They’re affecting the part of the sky associated with your inner, hidden strength. Don’t doubt the might of your foundations today. Your indomitable energy should not be underestimated.

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23
A kind-hearted group lunched in style while also donating lots of items for animals in need of friends
ANIMAL WELFARE LEAGUE LUNCH Shuck Restaurant and Bar, Main Beach
THEA William’s personal invitation to lunch has become an annual event to help and support the Animal Welfare League Qld. Held at Shuck Restaurant and Bar in Main Beach, guests bring everything from bowls, toys, blankets and even veterinary equipment to assist the AWLQ and its work with shelter animals. Now in its fourth year, Thea’s lunch will go some way to helping the ongoing AWLQ work of caring for the 17,500 animals a year that need help. Possibly the most dangerous phrase in English is: ‘I’d be happy if...’. In this mindset, happiness is impossible. Only when we achieve an arbitrary set of conditions will we be satisfied. And that’s ridiculous! Although astrologers look into the future, we know that what will make someone happy three months down the line, isn’t always what they think it might be. All anyone knows for sure, is what’s going on in the present. As Venus and Mars link today, give yourself permission to be happy.

CANCER JUN 23 - JUL 23
Should you look before you leap, or throw caution to the wind? Sometimes, major advances happen only when a brave individual decides to take a leap in the dark - and in those circumstances, there’s no point in looking! That doesn’t mean you should throw yourself at a challenge without consideration. But, as another proverb has it, he who hesitates is lost. You can talk yourself out of anything if you leave it long enough. So, if your gut feeling is to go for it, don’t over-analyse that instinct. Make the rest of October a magical month. For important news, call: 1900 959 005.
SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22
Some people have verbal and physical tics that they’re unaware of. They might drum their fingers, clear their throats, or resort to the same phrase repeatedly. To a newcomer, these quirks can be frustrating but, over time, the people around them cease noticing altogether. Recently, someone’s eccentricities have been getting under your skin. Rather than making a scene, why not take a step back? Their habits may be stopping you from seeing the gifts they have to offer.
