SAGITTARIUS
November 22 – December 20
You’ll recognise the potential in the
thrilling if unsettling events currently
reshaping your life. Others, however,
will question them. Discuss these with
certain individuals whose views you
respect, ignore those who’re overly
cautious, but always remember that,
ultimately, what’s next is up to you.
However, with the ideas planet Mercury
retrograde from the 4th to 25th, minor
errors could mean rethinking even
simple plans. The trick, therefore, is to
trust your instincts but finalise nothing
until things are calmer, later in the year.
LIBRA
September 23 – October 22
Although the Libra New Moon, on 24
September, casts numerous perplexing
situations in a fresh perspective, it’s
too early to commit to plans. Between
the actual circumstances involved
shifting and your own questions, you’ll
change your mind often, and so will
others. The trick is to view October as
a journey in which your understanding
of circumstances grows. If you must
commit, ensure arrangements are
flexible. This will allow you to proceed
with plans while focusing on exploration
and what you can learn.
SCORPIO
October 23 – November 21
Even you, with your remarkable ability
to combine canny observation with
intuition, could find you’re unable to
make sense of events. Some seem
thrilling, others confusing and a few
worry you. Since things won’t come
together until after the pivotal, if not
life-changing, Scorpio eclipsed New
Moon on 23 October, regard any plans
until then as tentative. Meanwhile, focus
on decluttering your life. This will both
clear the way for what’s to come and, as
important, mean you’re relieved certain
things are going.
VIRGO
August 23 – September 22
No amount of analysis will make sense of
both changes in existing arrangements
and unexpected developments. Accept
that, and you’ve overcome October’s
biggest obstacle. Unaccustomed as
this easy-going attitude is, it allows you
to take advantage of sudden, thrilling
but unsettling events. Similarly, with
your ruler Mercury retrograde from
the 4th to 25th, you’ll face errors but,
here too, they’ll be as informative as
they are annoying. Also, since constant
changes undermine your usual mega-
organisation, simply go with the flow.
CANCER
June 21 – July 21
Being an intuitive water sign, you’re
tuned into the emotional highs and lows
triggered by the lunar cycle. So while
you’ll understand the combination of
intense feelings and, often, sudden
changes triggered by eclipses on
October 8th and 23rd, others won’t. This
means playing the guru role, helping
them deal with their reaction to events,
both practical and emotional. While you,
too, could be on edge, you’ll instinctively
understand that for whatever is going,
something better is coming your way.
LEO
July 22 – August 22
Sometimes even superb offers or
opportunities aren’t recognisable, at
least initially. These first appear in late
September. If you bypassed them then,
fortunately they’ll reappear in other
forms during October’s first half. Risky
as agreeing when short of facts seems,
it’s best and allows you to learn from
experience. Ironically, with the ideas
planet Mercury retrograde from the
4th to 25th, the minor errors typical of
this period could be informative. By the
month’s close, you’ll be agreeing to
unanticipated yet thrilling arrangements.
