Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, October 1

We are ready to initiate action and tackle new projects today with the Moon in courageous Aries. We may even jump into circumstances before thinking about the consequences. Fortunately, change works in our favor as the Moon trines lovely Venus this afternoon. However, we might hit a speed bump when the Moon opposes stern Saturn just before shifting into earthy Taurus at 7:26 pm EDT, slowing us down enough so we can regain a sense of balance.
Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Hurry up and finish what you already started, or begin something new while you still have a chance. Either way, you’re feeling the pressure to take action right away as familiar surges of urgency wash over you like waves upon the beach. Between moments of active inspiration, you also may feel somewhat moody until the evocative Moon leaves your sign this evening. Although allowing time for contemplation is healthy, don’t let self-doubt hijack your day.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

It’s as if something is tickling your psyche today, yet it’s difficult to tell exactly what it is or where it’s coming from. You feel inspired, but you don’t have a clear strategy for applying your creativity. Your daydreams may be so vivid now that you’re standing on unfamiliar ground. Nevertheless, pay attention to your visions because they can help guide you through the days ahead.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may think that there’s no limit to what you might accomplish today, but actually there’s only so much you can juggle at one time. You must make some difficult choices now if you want something of lasting value to come from your current efforts. Don’t be a jack of all trades and a master of none. Setting priorities seems painful at first, but you’ll feel a whole lot better once you do.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You want to make major progress at work now that the Moon is illuminating your 10th House of Career. However, it’s difficult to stick with just one project because your thoughts are running in several directions. Instead of attempting to focus on the most practical tasks at hand, let your fantasies take you where they will today. A deadline might slip under the radar, and, luckily, others are willing to adapt to your schedule. Currently you are more successful if you work at your own pace.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The pace of your life continues to settle down today. You Lions have been on the go for a while and it feels good now that you can grab a catnap or two. However, the focus isn’t on sleeping — it’s all about dreaming. Your subconscious is releasing powerful messages, and you may learn something very significant about yourself if you take the time to decipher the symbols.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Although you might want to sit back and enjoy the day, you quickly grow anxious when you’re idle for more than just a few minutes. Logically, you know you should be able to take some time for yourself, but you keep worrying about all the unfinished work that still needs to be done. Instead of trying to escape now, concentrate on your goals for the day. Thankfully, your extra effort pays off and you should be able to completely relax this evening.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

It’s a rather noisy day and you prefer your life to be a little less hectic now. It’s not that there are too many things going on at once. It’s just that everything requires a little more of your attention than you expected. You wish that you could rely on others to help, but they have their own agendas to keep them busy. Get creative and take responsibility for your own destiny the best you can. Your calendar will become easier to manage as the week wears on.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Although your intentions are good and you enjoy the appreciation you receive, you may feel overwhelmed if you take on too much work. You might be afraid of the proverbial straw that could break the camel’s back — and the camel is you. But there’s nowhere to run. Take a deep breath and accept that you need to follow through with your word to the best of your ability. Fortunately, the cosmos comes to your aid and things could work out much better than you expect.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You feel driven today and have enough energy to do whatever must be done. You are moving into a highly optimistic phase where you might have a difficult time separating the reality of the situation from your belief that everything will be fine. Don’t fall asleep at the wheel of consciousness now, or you could wake up to find yourself crashing into reality. There’s nothing wrong with positive thinking as long as you accept the facts.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Situations can manifest today that require your immediate involvement. You are great when it comes to organizing events, especially in the midst of dealing with minor crises. The problem is that your solutions may defy practical logic now. Make no mistake about it; this is a test and you can pass with flying colors if you trust your feelings and your intuition. Remember, the force is with you.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The energy seems a bit more settled today than it did yesterday. However, you might not even realize that you’re through the eye of the storm and are coming out on the other side now. The skies are clearing and clarity is returning. You are a survivor because your individuality prevents you from losing yourself completely to the agenda of others. You’ve had to fight for what is yours. Take time to reflect on your journey and appreciate your accomplishments.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The currents of your feelings may be flowing too strongly for your taste today. You might be anxious because your emotions are in a state of transition. Don’t panic; you’ll be fine if you trust the process. Just think of yourself like a surfer riding the waves that arise from the depths of your imagination.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, September 24

We start the day with specific goals and realistic plans to reach them, but everything seems to take longer than expected. We are willing to work harder for what we want now that the ambitious Capricorn Moon forms a dynamic square with taskmaster Saturn. Although our nerves may be on edge, patience is exactly what we need until the Moon shifts into ingenious Aquarius at 7:32 pm EDT, revealing inventive solutions to lingering problems.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

This is quite a busy week for you, making it crucial to focus on the tasks you need to finish. But even if you try to keep your blinders on until you have made a dent in your list of things to do, other more disruptive forces are at work now. Accepting the distractions with a sense of humor reduces the stress. Nevertheless, extra concentration is needed today to keep you on track.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may feel as if someone is not being cooperative today, possibly with respect to your romantic inclinations. If you are in a relationship, your partner might seem distant, as if he or she is setting up roadblocks to intimacy. Don’t get too worked up about it; celebrate your cup being half full instead of complaining that it’s half empty. Ironically, the resistance could dissipate once you stop trying so hard to make everything perfect.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You are concerned that you can’t pursue all the intriguing curiosities popping up in your life now because your time and efforts are limited by circumstances beyond your control. A demanding situation at work may prevent you from being as independent as you wish. Surprisingly, your calendar could open up once you resign yourself to meeting your current obligations.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your unfulfilled needs stand in the way of your satisfaction now, for it’s unlikely that others will give you everything that you want. If you are already in a close partnership, you may have to negotiate before you are taken seriously. But this isn’t as bad as it sounds because the real lesson is to learn what you can give to yourself. Clearly defining what you want from a relationship is a good start, but knowing how to fill in the gaps on your own is necessary.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It might appear as if your life is going to settle down for a bit, but this may be a premature hopeful conclusion. Although you see progress at work, there are unexpected twists and turns in the path ahead of you this week. Use your time wisely now to get ready for whatever you might run into later on. And, if others offer their assistance today, don’t let your pride get in the way of accepting help. Being gracious works well both in giving and receiving.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your current creativity probably originates from your desire to achieve and get ahead rather than bubbling up from the wellsprings of inspiration. You know what you want to accomplish and, luckily, you have the ability to transform your playful or romantic urges into serious practical manifestations. Whatever you do today, make sure that it’s done with a greater purpose in mind.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

An unexpected twist on the relationship path may not be such a problem now, since it’s probably helpful to release hidden tensions. However, you would prefer to sidestep a sticky issue in order to keep the peace. But even if you are trying to maintain stability, conflict could work its way into the picture. Nevertheless, don’t avoid an important discussion because honest communication is one of the primary ingredients of healthy change.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Two separate issues could arise now. First, you are redefining your own boundaries, even if this means a bit of self-imposed isolation. Secondly, a stream of revelations prevents you from feeling sorry for yourself. You may even be amused by the melodramatic soap opera of your life these days. This healthy attitude gives you the necessary detachment so you can withdraw for a while to facilitate your continued personal growth.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

If you are feeling critical of your friends today, examine your own behavior prior to making any false accusations. You may be uncharacteristically traditional now as you compare your values with those closest to you. But there’s no reason to judge anyone else, even if someone acts in an apparently irresponsible manner. Let others know where you stand, but don’t try to change them. Simply decide what’s valuable to you and then work for what you want.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

A wave of uncertainty washes over you today but your tendency is to reinforce your walls to shut off the flow of the unknown. You could be scared that your whole world may be quickly destabilized if you acknowledge your lack of control. Just remember, the more you engage your irrational fears and express them to someone you trust, the greater the potential for positive change.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may feel as if someone is secretly trying to influence your behavior, and it’s difficult to know the best way to react to the situation. There are unknown pieces to the puzzle today and you cannot effectively fight an unseen enemy. Instead of lighting the fuse and picking up the pieces afterward, try holding on to familiar healthy routines now. The truth will come out soon enough, still leaving you with enough time to act once it does.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It seems like you’re being restrained from expressing yourself as freely as you wish today, yet this is likely more constructive than you realize. If you just say whatever is on your mind, you could end up offending someone who means a lot to you. Patience is your best friend now. Don’t make any sudden changes; move slowly and with great intent if you feel certain about someone or something special.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for September 22

The Sun’s entry into a new sign (7:50AM PDT) — Libra — carries an extra dose of concern in 2012. The reason is that a little less than 5 hours from this point a quarter-moon cycle will come into the picture — equating with a rapid rise in tensions across the board.  Here’s how this situation comes into being. First, the Sun shifts gears from earthy Virgo to airy Libra at 7:50AM PDT. Nothing really seems amiss and there is now a 30-day focus on improving the quality of primary partnerships as well as picking up the pace in the fine or graphic arts. However, a seemingly innocent Moon-Saturn 60-degree rapport (9:46AM PDT) begins a void lunar uncertainty zone that lasts until 12:22PM PDT (when the Moon enters hardnosed and industrious Capricorn). It is then at 12:42PM PDT that a potentially strong problem manifests when the First Quarter Sun-Moon Phase clocks in — energizing 1 degree of Libra and Capricorn.  Therefore, we now have not only a solar-lunar 90-degree square pattern that can signify stormy emotions affecting millions of people, but the places in the zodiac where they are doing the square (at 1 degree of Libra and Capricorn) carry archetypal significance, referring to the state of the society as a whole and the corporate-business-professional climate as a whole.  Hopefully, due to the relatively quick motion of the Moon, multiple crises will be averted as cool heads prevail over temperamental individuals who are on ego trips. Relax in a hot tub or enjoy a whirlpool treatment later on as the Moon makes a supportive, 60-degree link to the healing celestial body Chiron (11:04PM PDT).
