As we enter the tenth month of the year, so the moon pumps up your desire to connect with others. Generally, a day of warmer, more affectionate possibilities unfolds. If there is someone you really like, reach out to them. A spark between you and a friend, or even the enthusiasm you share with a group of people, can give you a real push to be more dynamic and go-getting. If you like people who are less conventional, this, too, is going to be emphasised. Three planets are near to forging a Grand Fire Trine. It's not quite exact, but with one of them, Jupiter, in your sign, this is a fab opportunity for you to show your mettle. This is not the time to ponder and over-analyse. Don't be so concerned about what other people think and, most of all, what you suspect that they expect of you. This is a wonderful time to show your leadership. You need to be decisive and act quickly, which can give you a real buzz. Mars is forging an exceptional angle to two other planets, both located in Fire signs themselves. This could bring out your buccaneering instincts and see you make some smart moves. Socially, you can be a star. Your penchant for all things original, off the wall and innovative is getting a huge boost. It's not often that such a beneficial skyscape is in effect, so use this opportunity to dare to be different. You are at your best when you are a trendsetter.

When it comes to your financial situation, even if you are someone who is usually risk averse, a hunch can draw you towards an exciting opportunity with the sense that it could come off well. This is possible, but stay level headed. Your thoroughness and organisational skills are the stuff of astral lore. But try not to be too hidebound around work or professional interests. This is a time when you could make real progress if you are alert to unusual possibilities. You could glean something today which can excite and motivate you. This may not be something such as a clear, concise fact – indeed, it could be possibilities that you weigh up in your mind which help to inform you of an opportunity. Later today, conversations could become more charged, but earlier on there is an excellent opportunity to use the planetary powers to your advantage. This can give you a real aptitude for forward thinking and innovation. A past memory, person or even a job can have a bearing on events today. As the moon moves into your sign, you'll move from reflecting about this to being in the mood to do something about it. You may action this now, or tomorrow. If you are looking for a new opportunity, don't dismiss something just because it is totally new to you. Many of us are comforted by a certain amount of familiarity, but this can easily creep up to become a rather suffocating blanket.
