Libra The Scales (Sept. 22-Oct. 22)
This is a tremendously busy week. You are concentrating on multiple tasks. You are pulling things together that are symbolic of who you have become and what you have learned, especially over the last two years. This is a month of achievement and also one that represents a new beginning.
For All Signs: Take heed. This is our pre-warning for 2013, which is not that far away. One year from now, in the last quarter of 2012, Saturn will move into the sign of Scorpio and will be there for two-and-a-half years. That is the time in which the local, state and federal governments will increase taxes dramatically. The other world governments, which have been loaning us money for many years, will be turning the screws for payback and we don't have it to give. It will be less stressful on individuals who do not have credit card debt and who have paid as much as possible on mortgages. Self-discipline now will mean less pain later.
Aries: You are becoming aware of developing issues in a relationship. It is possible you are feeling somehow restricted. Perhaps you are even bored. It is odd that you also feel you should not speak about this problem just yet. Maybe the "other" is ill or under too much pressure. But the time is coming soon.
Taurus: Venus, your ruling planet, has entered the 7th house of relationships and will be there until the end of October. She brings improvements in clientele, social life and partnerships. This is a good time to ask for a professional consultation if you need it. You are especially able to balance with others during this period in order to create win-win solutions.
Gemini: This is a good week to concentrate on a challenging mental project. It will work better for you if you are revising, editing or itemizing details. If you are producing a creative work, you are likely to be overly critical of the outcome. The Inner Critic may advise, but it should not be allowed to condemn your efforts.
Cancer: You are in a reasonably good place with yourself at this time. Your heart and mind are flowing together. You have no conflict between your feelings and your thoughts about those feelings. This is a time for reflection on important subjects. You can make good decisions now.
Leo: You are bringing closure to a communications project that is important to your development. Somehow crossing this threshold will open the doorway to the next possible rung on your ladder. It is not only about career, but also about yourself as a person. An opportunity to move toward greater maturity is right before you.
Virgo: You may need to concentrate in order to avoid critics, whether they be internal or external. Instead of blame, use the discipline to tackle a project that requires concentration. If you are tending to contracts and business negotiations, use extra caution related to even minor details.
Scorpio: Venus enters your sign this week and will be traveling "with you" throughout October. Her presence gives you an air of poise, and people will simply like how you look. Sometimes she brings improvement in love life. When Venus is prominent, we become more interested in art forms and want to make things in the environment more attractive.
Sagittarius: This is a fairly routine week. In the bigger picture is an accomplishment you seek and you should perceive a "go" signal by the end of the month. In the meantime, it's details, details, and more details. It is immensely important that your direction and purpose is to promote the best for the greatest number of people.
Capricorn: For the last two years, you have been laboring to improve your status and life direction. At this point in time, your efforts are rewarded with recognition and an opportunity to take on greater responsibility. To grow your achievements will require some sacrifice of personal life. Do you want this?
Aquarius: It has been necessary for you to take your beliefs seriously and commit yourself to establish practical ways in which to manifest them. The world requires that you expand your usual territory to include a larger social structure. This is a time of testing. Are you on target? If so, there is a fresh "assignment" on the horizon.
Pisces: You may be dealing with mixed signals about yourself and your direction in life. These signals may be internal, external or both. On one level you could be feeling guilty or badly about yourself. This one is exaggerated. On another level, you may be the happy recipient of small gifts, compliments or favors from others.
