Horoscopes
Libra Sep 24-Oct 23 Four powerful asteroids in your home zone in October will result in a fantastic turning point with your apartment, house, garden or local area. You will feel happily in control of your special place in the world. Past, present or potential romance is also ready to be revived if you want to put the work in. This applies no matter if you are single or married, as you will see once your ruler Venus moves into your sign on October 15. This is also the right time to attend to home maintenance, landscaping or insurance. Scorpio ● Oct 24-Nov 22 A new phase in a very special relationship or marriage will unfold if you’re both prepared to cut across the confusion and communicate. This could be the start of a new sexual adventure, but it is important there is a meeting of minds as well as bodies. Without that, the lack of clarity may stop both of you from acting on what you feel. For some Scorpios, the issue of pregnancy will raise its head. The telepathy is there and so is the timing. Now find the truth and the trust with your current, former or potential partner.
Sagittarius ● Nov 23-Dec 21
Managing your money, property, business or assets is all about commitment in October. Part of you wants freedom, space and independence, yet there is work to be done if you want to achieve long-term rewards and growth. This is an important month for your security, when you can weed out potential issues before they begin and protect what is yours. Make sure you are seeing things as they are. Dreamy Neptune may produce a blind spot about local government, state or national issues affecting your place. Look again.
Capricorn ● Dec 22-Jan 20
The goddess Fortuna spins the
Wheel of Fortune up and down, in your business, finance and property zone in October. Accepting that every high eventually becomes a low (and vice versa) is easier once you remember your sense of humour. Bigger changes on Wall Street may have an impact on your own life. Fluctuating currency exchange rates, economic policies around the world or sharemarket prices are typical of this cycle and a wise financial advisor with years of experience may be able to help in this topsy-turvy month of change.
Aquarius ● Jan 21-Feb 19
You begin a number of new cycles this month and it’s time for some overdue chopping and changing. You will need to take a deep breath and decide what stays and what goes, as 2018 is just around the corner. A great deal of your life now is the result of baggage gathered over the past two to three years. One situation in particular is in desperate need of maintenance and the results could be impressive if you see the potential. It’s time to find what should last forever and what is over.
Pisces ● Feb 20-Mar 20
You may be tempted to travel ambitiously or even move now the opportunities are there and 2018 looks promising. Your emotional house has to be in order before this can take place, though, and some friendships or relationships have gone by the wayside. When the time’s right, you can correct the situation. In the meantime, don’t forget one or two friends or special circles of people who are worth their weight in gold. These people will help psychologically – or in practical ways – now.
Aries ● Mar 21-Apr 21
Which way is your group going to land? This may be a band, a circle of old friends, sports team or a political party. It may seem as if things are almost at an end, but you can come back from the brink together. Only you can decide if the solution is right or wrong. After October 21, a win-win outcome is in sight and if you all agree on the right setting for your plans, a remarkable new beginning is in store. The reunion, comeback or resurrection can only happen if you all realise that you are separate people with similar views.
Taurus ● Apr 22-May 21
Your former, current or potential partner? Your opponent or enemy?
Taurus, you two have an important choice now, as you must continue together or part company. A marriage can be a matter for two people as much as a battle can, but in either case, the new 12-year cycle which begins on October 11 offers one or both of you a new adventure. It may not be until the New Moon on November 18 that you are ready to take the new path – or stay where you are. You two are different and equal, but you must choose your own destinies.
Gemini ● May 22-Jun 22
Your opposite number in life – or your opponent – shares a milestone decision with you this month. This is a serious moment of truth as you slowly finish the most demanding cycle in 29 years for marriage, relationships, professional partnerships or two-way battles. This may take time and trust to negotiate, but you are a Gemini and can find the words. You are both extremely different people, who see success in contrasting ways, but you can both be yourselves and come to an agreement if you do what comes naturally.
Cancer ● Jun 23-Jul 23
Questions about the world of pregnancy, children, godchildren, young relatives and young adults must be answered in October. This leads you back to a past, present or potential partnership. Will you move on or stay put? If you do progress to the next property or career adventure, will you travel as a pair or take your own journeys? These questions will linger until the New Moon on November 18, when one or both of you are at last ready to act. New ambitions are waiting, but both of you must reach agreement.
Leo ● Jul 24-Aug 23
A special project, idea or concept will depend on your ability to negotiate with an important man in your world. He needs to delegate or share this plan, which has wonderful potential. You must decide how much time, energy and commitment you can give. This man may have Leo planets in his own horoscope or have leadership qualities which you admire or identify with. Luck is on your side if you can secure the situation before October 10. If you do not act, others may take this up or, sadly, a special opportunity may go nowhere.
Virgo ● Aug 24-Sep 23
Your family tree, heritage – or friends who are your substitute family – will leave you feeling happy in October. You have been patient during a very difficult cycle, but the time has come to let go and explore a different side of yourself. This will not happen until you realise that holding on tightly is not the way to shed baggage. If you are prepared to relax your attitude and drop your defences, then the new life can begin. You will not make the most of those solid-gold relationships around you until you are more flexible.
