HOROSCOPE

October 1, 2016

Moon Alert: We have the “all clear” today to shop and do business. The Moon is in Libra.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This is a romantic, affectionate day for lovers. Concern for the welfare of others makes it easy to come to an agreement regarding inheritances and shared property. However, you might be inclined to give away the farm. Don’t do this.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is an excellent day to relate to partners and close friends because people feel genuinely warm to each other. They have a sincere concern for the welfare of others. Make plans to socialize with someone close to you because you will have an enjoyable time. It’s also a good day to negotiate.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

This is a pleasant, easygoing day at work. Your relations with others are warm and friendly. In fact, quite likely, someone will approach you for advice or ask you to counsel them in some fashion. Do the best you can; and of course, get $200/hr. (Not really.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a romantic, pleasure-loving day. It’s perfect for a candlelight dinner, a romantic drive somewhere, or any occasion where you feel treated in a special way. It’s easy to tell others that you care for them. You will also enjoy warm times with children.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is an excellent day to explore real-estate possibilities. It’s also a great day to redecorate or do something to make your digs look more attractive. While you’re at it, why not invite someone over to admire your work? It’s a lovely day to entertain at home because the vibes are happy and gentle.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You are diplomatic today, which is why this is a wonderful day to schmooze with others, especially to talk to siblings, neighbours and relatives. It’s also a good day to negotiate and sign contracts. Writers, actors and teachers will be in top form!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

If shopping today, you will want to buy something luxurious and elegant. And why not? Libra is the sign that is associated with haute coutour. (That’s French for spending too much money for clothes.) The good news is you might also see ways to boost your income. Keep your eyes peeled!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Fair Venus is in your sign today dancing with Neptune. This makes you charming and diplomatic in the eyes of others; and it also makes you feel genuinely sympathetic to everyone. Enjoy schmoozing today but do be prudent. Take care of your own needs, too.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Secret love affairs and clandestine trysts will take place for some of you today because there is a secretive overtone to everything that you do. For some, it might mean that you simply want to be alone in beautiful surroundings - just be by yourself. (“Peel me a grape.”)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Relations with friends and members of groups are warm and friendly today. This is why you should accept invitations to share the company of others. Possibly, someone will ask for your help because you feel genuine sympathy for others today.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You make an excellent impression on bosses, parents and VIPs today. In fact, some of you will make such an excellent impression that you will begin a flirtation with a boss or someone in a position of authority. Others will seek out your creative advice on something.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Travel for pleasure will delight you today because your appreciation of beauty is heightened. You will enjoy seeing gorgeous, architec- tural buildings, beautiful parks, art galleries, museums and special boutiques. Enjoy your day!

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actress Brie Larson (1989) shares your birthday today. You are bold and competitive. You also have excellent timing when it comes to attracting opportunities. Initially, this year begins quietly, which is why you might not see major changes until next year; however, it will be a year of growth, construction and building. Do what you can to reduce your debt and strengthen your financial position because you are building for your future!

If Your Birthday Is Tomorrow

Photographer Annie Leibovitz (1949) shares your birthday today. You are clever, witty and an excellent communicator. You are also social and you like to have company around you. You appreciate the finer things in life. Take advantage of opportunities that present themselves this year because this is the year you’ve been waiting for. Expect a major change, perhaps as significant as what occurred around 2006. It’s time to test your future!
