Horoscopes
OUR RESIDENT ASTROLOGER PREDICTS YOUR WEEK FROM OCT 4 TO OCT 10
LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23
Switch off those worries and prepare for more fun! With your social butterfly poised to take flight, it’s time to chase up a few old friends. Picnics and dinner parties are on your October menu, along with a run of reunions. Wednesday’s Libra new moon could spark an image overhaul, and with Venus adding her special flair, the results won’t go unnoticed. LUCKY CRYSTAL: AMETHYST
CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20
Could it be time to make a few changes? As Pluto boosts your confidence, you’ll be up for a fresh challenge, and what better way to shake off that stress. At work, the midweek new moon could usher you into a more satisfying, productive phase, but if you’ve fallen into a rut, put out feelers. Opportunities that pop up this month may be fated or ‘meant to be’. LUCKY INSECT: LADYBIRD
ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20
Periods of uncertainty can take a toll, but flow with it, for good things are heading your way. After spending five long months in reverse, Pluto’s directional shift could bring a dream within reach – as business and pleasure merge, some Rams might even enter into a partnership. And as Venus spins into your travel sector, an upcoming trip could get you excited. LUCKY DAY: SUNDAY
CANCER JUN 22 – JUL 23
Searching for inner calm? Your horoscope is crowded with stress and chatter, but silence can be golden, so don’t feel guilty about scheduling in more time alone. As the buzz subsides, your intuitive powers should surge – you might even feel like a mindreader. If a decision has been stressing you out, relax: October’s sensible stars should bring solutions. LUCKY FLOWER: PINK ROSE
SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22
Stuck in the middle? You might be tempted to play peacemaker, but remember, it’s their problem, not yours. Focus on bringing peace and happiness into your own life; as your mindset improves, so should a longterm health problem. Sentimental stars could draw old friends or lovers into your orbit this month, but if you’re attached, take it easy. LUCKY COLOUR: MIDNIGHT BLUE
AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19
Welcome to the season of inspired ideas! These mind-expanding stars could see you dusting off old business plans or researching your next adventure. Under the midweek new moon, there might be an unexpected windfall or offer in the pipeline; just sleep on any big decisions (Mercury is still retrograde), and singles, don’t confuse mysterious with secretive. LUCKY CRYSTAL: CLEAR QUARTZ
TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21
Been feeling a tad restless? Take a step into the unknown! As your search for meaning (and answers!) intensifies, you could find yourself doing some surprising things – but as you venture out of your comfort zone, you should meet some fascinating people. If you’ve always been curious about an unusual therapy or offbeat subject, it’s time to delve a little deeper. LUCKY COLOUR: PALE BLUE
LEO JUL 24 – AUG 23
Your chatty nature should work in your favour this week. As Pluto shifts back into forward gear, listen out for some fascinating info regarding a health or business issue; a major breakthrough might even materialise. On the fitness front, the midweek new moon is providing a turbocharged boost, so join forces with an enthusiastic friend or two and leap on in. LUCKY NUMBERS: 2, 6, 14, 29, 39, 42
SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21
Want more passion and action in your life? You’ve got it ... but uh-oh, you might get more drama, too. For some, a brewing problem might erupt, but by Saturday, the upbeat vibe will be hard to ignore. Venus’ arrival in your sign should boost your natural optimism, and hey, that’s an attractive quality. October looks like fun, especially for singles. LUCKY NUMBERS: 8, 18, 25, 38, 41, 44
PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20
Ask and you shall receive! If a tricky situation has been wearing you down, start talking and solutions should soon present themselves. Under October’s fair-minded patterns, even the boss might be more receptive, especially after Wednesday’s Libra new moon. Best of all, Pluto’s directional shift could reignite a faded dream or revive a flagging friendship. LUCKY ANIMAL: GOLDFISH
GEMINI MAY 22 – JUN 21
Like the Beach Boys song, it’s good vibrations. Not only is Venus lifting the mood (and energising your social life), good news should add an extra spring to your step. If you’re playing the dating game, or simply looking for more fun, October’s social stars should work wonders. Whether you’re single or attached, plan something special to celebrate. LUCKY NUMBERS: 3, 9, 15, 25, 32, 35
VIRGO AUG 24 – SEP 23
Hear that buzz in your money zone? Late spring might prove lucrative, but with Mercury reversing until October 19, keep your options open: an idea you previously passed over might warrant a closer look. If your health or fitness has been below par, the coming weeks could bring breakthroughs – or a whole new plan of attack. Your ability to inspire is impressive! LUCKY SIGN: FELLOW VIRGOS
