Dear Friends,

Back by popular demand, your astrology for the month by sign! Remember to read for your Sun, your Moon and your Rising sign (Ascendant). As always, email me if you are unsure of your placements.

Wishing you all a fruitful October!

May the Sun Shine upon you,
Catherine

Aries, this month is about partnerships. You know how much you love doing your own thing but you’ll benefit now from initiating some shared romance and recreational time. If you have children, they’re going through a lot of changes. Exercise patience with them while trying a new approach.

Taurus, you’re concerned with your spouse or business partner’s funds. It looks like it’s time to take a closer look into what’s going on. You might also be considering seeing a therapist or an astrologer – there couldn’t be a better time! Change is unmistakably in the air and you want to be ready for it.

Gemini, it’s a good month to plan or take that trip. You know the one I’m talking about – not the two-hour drive to see the foliage but the one where you decide to use your savings and buy the ticket to Kathmandu. You’re feeling a lot of pressure from work at the moment and this trip is something to look forward to. Go for it!

Cancer, your focus this October is on work. You may be asked to give up your time to help others on the job and end up staying late at the office. Turn this to your advantage; your caring attitude can go a long way in getting you noticed. With all the overtime, try not to let your exercise routine take a back seat.

Leo, the recent eclipses in your sign may have left you reeling. Yet you’re more determined than ever to shine your light and be counted. Turn to friends this month for practical support and comfort. They’ll be there for you. And don’t be surprised if your work receives accolades too!

Virgo, things are feeling a little unsettled right now. There are some things going on behind closed doors and your daily routine seems to be shifting constantly. Focus on getting your body and appearance to its best level yet. All will be revealed when the dust settles.

Libra, it’s all about you this month. Focus on increasing your fitness and reassessing daily habits. It’s those small changes that are going to make all the difference right now. Those of you born between September 27 and October 3 are especially under the spotlight this month for revisiting old issues in order to transform them. For all Libras, this is a great time to review your finances. Happy, happy birthday!

Scorpio, you’re spending money on things and activities you love. Keep an eye on extremes, whether it’s going beyond your budget or a fluctuating self-worth. Those of you born November 13-20 appear to be receiving a payout or reward too this month – celebrate!

Sagittarius, your daily commute has a new pattern to it and you’re finally beginning to adjust. Use this month to take care of everyday things which includes servicing your car and tackling those papers lying about the home office. There’s plenty of time to read and relax too before a busy November comes around. Enjoy!

Capricorn, what’s going on at home this month? If it occasionally feels like a power struggle, that’s because it is. There’s a silver lining here because you’re learning something important about what you need to be happy. Keep showing your mature attitude. A new beginning is within reach!

Aquarius, your focus is on romance, children and creative projects this month. Put a dash of cheerful energy into your home environment by planning a special dinner or adding a new piece of decor to your living space. Avoid confrontations with loved ones by putting your innate listening skills to the test.

Pisces, October is about self-care. Deal with any outstanding physical ailments or old injuries. You’ll feel cheerful once your niggling worries have been put to rest. Make room for a positive lifestyle change or two without forcing a new routine on yourself (or your pet). Keep it fun and you’ll keep it up!

Did you know the word ‘horoscope’ comes from the Greek ‘horoskopos’: ‘hora’ meaning ‘of the hour’, referring the time in which the chart is cast, and ‘skopos’ referring to ‘marker’.
