Sagittarius (22 Nov–21 Dec)
This is the season of harvest for you, a prime period of growing and deepening interpersonal connections. You’re also pushed to develop creative ideas that have caught your fancy, especially around the 17th. It’s likely as well that someone dear to you is asking for your attention, but your busy schedule may leave them feeling neglected. Ultimately, take care to share your time with those you want to stay close to. Space and intimacy are not mutually exclusive concepts.
Capricorn (22 Dec–19 Jan)
Whenever you’re struggling to make a decision, trust that the solution is always the simplest and clearest one. Any dilemma you undergo is related to anxieties you attach to change or letting go of the past. The week around 11th October provides an extra dose of clarity to get your motors running. It might make you more irritable than usual though, so be wary of lashing out at those around you. You’re free to opt for the path of least resistance and pain.
Aquarius (20 Jan–18 Feb)
October encourages you to treat yourself to whatever you’ve been holding off. No more delayed gratification or arguments about what you do or do not deserve. The period around the 12th is especially ripe for treats and little pleasures. Tell yourself simply that “I deserve” and enjoy whatever comes your way. Don’t think of it as an overindulgence. Instead, think of it as an exercise in personal growth. Remember that part of leading a healthy lifestyle is feeling good about yourself.
Pisces (19 Feb–20 Mar)
Now is not the time to be hard on yourself, especially if you’ve been going through heartbreak, quarrels or disappointments. Softness and gentleness are traits to nurture this month. Don’t beat yourself up over past mistakes or play mental blame games. The whole month is dedicated to helping you heal. You’re also inspired to strengthen your intuition about bothersome people in your life, although no major decisions have to be made yet.
Aries (21 Mar–19 Apr)
You might face some conflicts at the start of the month, but things settle around the 15th. If you find yourself disagreeing heavily with someone, you’re encouraged to be the bigger person and take a step back. Your energy is best released through a practical pursuit of goals that works towards building warm and inviting environments, whether this is in your home or workplace. You’re entering your congenial era and your self-worth strengthens when you foster happier relations around you.
Taurus (20 Apr–20 May)
When a dreaded person or situation enters your life, it’s time to say “boo!” and signal for them to back off. This is a month of retreat and refining your social and energetic boundaries. If your emotions run high, it would benefit you to take a breather on your own before engaging in any conversation or interaction. However, this doesn’t mean that you become a wallflower. Injustices and unfair treatment should be called out, but only when you feel calm enough to do so. Check yourself before you check others.
Gemini (21 May–21 Jun)
Keep an eye on the bonds that you’re forming and maintaining this month. It’s a good time to fortify relationships that feel stable to you. Meanwhile, connections that only bring you doubt and anxiety have no place in your life right now. Remember that bottling up your pain will not solve your problems. On the contrary, it will only lead to delayed outbursts. The period around 21st Ocotober may leave you feeling scattered, so use that time to slow your brakes and daydream a little.
Cancer (22 Jun–22 Jul)
This could be a golden month for you, if you know how to harness your motivations into action. The 23rd and 24th are particularly aligned to opportunities that support the expansion of your initiatives. Before that period, strengthen yourself mentally and emotionally, and be careful not to branch out into excessive commitments. Overall though, you’re highly encouraged to expend your efforts outwards. Prospects of finding supporters and investors are well-placed for you this month when you put yourself out there.
Leo (23 Jul–22 Aug)
Have you been suppressing any feelings lately? October might bring emotions to a boiling point. Whether your frustration is directed at yourself or someone else, you’re compelled to speak truthfully and act with integrity. Each conflict that comes your way presents an opportunity to refine and stand firm in your beliefs. Positive developments are just around the corner, especially around the 24th, so have hope and press on. Let go of any baggage and watch how your whole demeanour changes.
Virgo (23 Aug–22 Sep)
October begins with an affirmation for you to get serious about your responsibilities. Maintaining focus means looking at what’s on your plate and not what’s on someone else’s. Indeed, this month may surface feelings of envy and potential copycats. It would be wise for you to remain detached from people whom you don’t know very well. Luckily, the 26th brings a burst of energy for you to complete pesky deliverables and to tie up loose ends that have been clouding your mind.
