HOROSCOPES

What kind of day will today be? To find out what the stars say, read the forecast given for your birth sign. For Monday, October 1, 2018

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)

Some Mondays are lighthearted and easy. This one, not so much. You are dealing with bosses, parents or the police, who will restrict you in some way. (Bummer.)

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)

Fight the urge to give in to worry. Most of the things we worry about never happen. Think of the positive things you can do today -- physical things you can do that are helpful. What can you say to someone that is positive?

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)

Tighten your belt because this is a poor day to spend money. You feel like old Mother Hubbard who looked in the cupboard only to find it bare. It's a temporary setback.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)

Today the Moon is in your sign, which makes you more emotional than usual. However, it also opposes stern Saturn, which is a buzzkill. Don't take it seriously.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22)

Don't worry if you feel cut off from others, because this is a temporary illusion. Just live with it. In two days everything will be different. Everyone loves you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)

Someone older might discourage you today. This person might criticize you or create obstacles for you. Fear not, because this is fluff! Even tomorrow things look better.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)

This is not a good day to approach someone in authority - parents, teachers, bosses or the police -- to ask for a favor or the approval of something. Don't do it. Not today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)

Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues, because people will shut you down. Obviously, you have a right to your own opinions. That's a fact.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)

Discussions about shared property and inheritances might discourage you today. So many rules and regulations! Can you plow through all this? Yes, you can. Relax.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)

Postpone important discussions with partners and close friends for another day. Don't have them today, because people are critical and a bit negative. (Hey, it happens.)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)

Don't ask bosses or supervisors for permission for anything today. Their response will be: "Talk to the hand!" Wait for a day.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)

Children might be an increased responsibility today. Well, this goes with the territory. Sometimes you just have to suck it up and cope. And you can.

YOU BORN TODAY: You are determined, disciplined and patient. You appreciate beautiful things. This year it's finally time to think "success, power and money"! Oh yes, it's a year of harvest and major achievements, because you are reaping the benefits of the past decade. You will taste power and leadership in all your relationships. Get going. Make it happen!
