Your Horoscopes For October

See what the stars have in store for you this month...

LIBRA

Libra September 23 to October 22

October encourages you to reach out in as many directions as possible. Jot down all new ideas and intuitive flashes so you don’t forget them. Whatever happens, communication will need to increase. Widen your circle of contacts, as this will encourage the exchange of ideas and information. You may also want to expand on any artistic talents or writing ability.

AFFIRMATION FOR THE MONTH: Just go for it!

THIS MONTH, PRIORITISE… 

Lock in long-term financial investments. Property, perhaps?

POWER DATES: 

14th: A great date to start ventures.

30th: You’re more creative and ethereal. A dream may come true.

SCORPIO

October 23 to November 21 

Jupiter brings an excellent time for financial strategising – and perhaps even an inheritance or windfall. Loan requests are more readily granted. In matters of the heart, you may experience powerful and fortunate changes. Indeed, any changes made this month should eventually make your life more rewarding. A new home or car is on the horizon.

SAGITTARIUS

November 22 to December 21

Lost your way, just a tad? Not to worry, Jupiter puts you back on track. This planet can also have a powerful maturing influence and bring a time of personal and spiritual growth, possibly through travel, new studies or teaching others. There’s beneficial contact with people living overseas or from different backgrounds.

CAPRICORN

December 22 to January 19

October motivates you to go after exactly what you want and to promote yourself and your talents. If you haven’t yet found your calling, you’ll likely do so. New ventures are suddenly noticed by a wider audience. You may travel for work or have more contact with foreign companies or those overseas.

AQUARIUS

January 20 to February 18

Your hopes and wishes for the future come to the fore. October should find you busier and more involved with others than you have been for some time. Working in a team and travelling are beneficial. Jupiter turns up your ability to co-operate and compromise. As a result, you’ll win admirers or new friends, and possibly a new romantic partner.

PISCES

February 19 to March 20

Pisceans can now learn much about the spiritual dimensions of life. Meditation, yoga or any form of counselling should benefit you. You may even feel, rightfully, more spiritually protected. The best news? If and when you need help, it’s likely to arrive – and from the most unexpected sources.

ARIES

March 21 to April 20

Think back 13 years and you may realise history is repeating. October is a time of change and activity, particularly regarding how you look. With your charm peaking, prepare for a parade of admirers. If attached, you’ll be especially close to your partner. Expect most of your ideas to be noticed and appreciated. 

TAURUS

April 21 to May 20

Expect a time of increased work satisfaction, thanks to a new job, better career or financial rewards in your present position. All in all, your workplace should become a happier place. You may travel, and business and pleasure mix more easily. Health should also improve – but you may gain weight. Practise moderation where you can. 

GEMINI

May 21 to June 21

Your curiosity expands, making October ideal for multitasking. Few details escape you. Expect a growing pile of newspapers magazines and emails to clutter your environment. Relationships with close family are likely to improve. Travel could be on the agenda, especially day trips related to work or family matters.

CANCER

June 22 to July 22

It’s time to put down emotional roots, Cancer. Family numbers may grow, perhaps through marriage or a partner, a new flatmate, birth or even a pet. You could move house or make alterations to an existing home. You’re also likely to draw closer to immediate family and, if need be, turn to them for help.

LEO

July 23 to August 22

You find the courage to be yourself and let your thoughts and feelings be known without fear or apology. It’s a peak period for those involved in creative or artistic work. In romance, you won’t hold back. Your capacity for personal enjoyment also expands – as could your waistline. Indulge, by all means, but with a touch of moderation.

VIRGO

August 23 to September 22

October helps you to actualise what you value in life. If you value money and possessions, this transit can mark a peak time in cash flow. If your values are more spiritual and altruistic, then expect personal growth in these areas. Of course, you may enjoy a double blessing: the Midas touch and spiritual development.
