TIP FOR THE WEEK: Be patient and think things through very carefully before you commit yourself. Change is on the way.
LIBRA (AIR)
SEPTEMBER 23-OCTOBER 23
You have a lot more patience this week and are ready to take the time to think things through to the end. Try not to underestimate yourself or doubt your abilities. Your experience is vast and will guide you when it comes time to make a decision. HINT: Be careful how you spend your money right now. What you think is important today may turn out to be a waste tomorrow.
 
SCORPIO (WATER)
OCTOBER 24-NOVEMBER 21
Don’t be surprised if your emotions range from happy to sad or from optimistic to pessimistic and back again. There is just so much going on in your life right now and your control over matters is limited. This is a good time for you to take a step back and reassess your situation. HINT: When in doubt, wait. A conversation with a family member will help fill in some of the missing pieces you have been searching for.
 
SAGITTARIUS (FIRE)
NOVEMBER 22-DECEMBER
Meetings of both a social and professional nature may not be as satisfying as you would like, but they will offer a perfect opportunity for you to gather some important information. As much as you would like to make some changes in your life, this is the time for contemplation rather than action. In the months to come you will be happy you were cautious now. HINT: You may have the opportunity to renew an old friendship—the choice is yours.
 
CAPRICORN (EARTH)
DECEMBER 22-JANUARY 19
Don’t be too hasty in your judgment of others. You are simply overly sensitive right now and those closest to you are not used to you being so thin skinned. Professionally this is a perfect time for you as your knowledge, experience and reputation pave the way for you to accomplish great things. HINT: A personal relationship may be rather rocky for the next few weeks so instead of getting upset, keep busy and put some space between yourself and this person.
 
AQUARIUS (AIR)
JANUARY 20-FEBRUARY 18
Although things may not be going the way you had planned, you are definitely on the right track. Be patient and keep moving forward. In the long run you will not be sorry. Your personal relationships are stronger than ever and this is a good time for entertaining at home and enjoying a quiet evening surrounded by people you love and respect. HINT: Money put aside now will come in handy in the months to come. Don’t hesitate to ask a family member for a loan if you feel stressed.
 
PISCES (WATER)
FEBRUARY 19-MARCH
The time has come for you to get your priorities right and to put your own needs at the top of the list. For far too long you have been taking care of everyone else at your own financial and physical expense and that has to stop. You will never turn your back on your loved ones but right now you come first. As much as you long to drop everything and take off for foreign places, the time is definitely not right. But, that does not mean that things won’t change in the months to come. HINT: A conversation with another water sign will help you get your feet back on the ground.
 
ARIES (FIRE)
MARCH 21-APRIL 19
The time has come for you to walk away from a person who always seems to upset you. You know you are right and the people closest to you continue to stand firmly at your side. So put the past on a back burner and reach out for your future. Financially things are quite stable but that does not mean that you can go on a wild spending spree. HINT: Your relationship with your partner and/or mate is solid and stable and this is a good time for some serious talks on your future.
 
TAURUS (EARTH)
APRIL 20-MAY
Some days you have the feeling that nothing is as it seems and this week you will have to pay close attention to what is going on around you if you wish to uncover the truth. It isn’t that people are lying, rather, they aren’t revealing the entire story. And the piece of information that is missing is the key piece that you need in order to make an intelligent decision. HINT: This is a good week for getting things done and finally completing a project that has been keeping you up at nights.
 
GEMINI (AIR)
MAY 21-JUNE 21
Your problem isn’t that you don’t have enough work to do, it is that you are bored with what you are doing. Instead of taking on more work, you are going to have to clear the slate first if you want to maintain a good reputation. Don’t wait until you are drowning to ask for help. Monday and Tuesday are good days for working closely with your partner and/or mate. Take the time to explain how you feel and you won’t be sorry. HINT: When speaking to another air sign, remember to get your facts straight.
 
CANCER (WATER)
JUNE 22-JULY 22
Try to be a little more patient with the members of your family. They are doing their best and even though they don’t always verbalize their feelings, they are very appreciative of all you do for them. Money and finances are on your mind right now and in the coming weeks everything will settle down and once again you can begin putting some cash aside. HINT: Try to find a quiet place where you can work in peace and make some headway on a project that needs to be completed.
 
LEO (FIRE)
JULY 23-AUGUST 22
For a long time you have been concerned over the financial situation of a sibling, and now, finally things are beginning to look up and you can relax. In the coming months you will have the opportunity to spend more time together which is always a win-win situation. Take some time off during the middle portion of this week to work on a creative project that needs your special touch. HINT: When dealing with a partner and/or mate try to remember that sometimes this person speaks before they think.
 
VIRGO (EARTH)
AUGUST 23-SEPTEMBER 22
This is a perfect week for taking care of money matters, discussing your plans with an expert or two and coming to an important decision. Your relationship with a sibling may be strained right now. Instead of forcing the issue, take a step back to give yourselves some space. The middle portion of the week is good for taking care of things at home. You may need to call in an electrician or plumber. HINT: Time spent with a water sign will help you see things from a different perspective.
