Your Weekly Horoscopes Are Here: October 13th – October 20th

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

If you celebrate your birthday this week:

Your Year Ahead

As well as celebrations, birthdays can trigger a review of the previous year and initiate new resolutions.  It’s a time when the Sun restores your confidence, giving you more certainty to pursue your chosen path.  It should also be easier to pinpoint that elusive common ground between home, personal and professional interests – and for some, the way opens for new romance, which could come parcelled with studies or retraining.

 

Aries (March 21 – April 20)

Best Day: Sunday 15th

For a while now, you’ve suffered uncertainty.   But the universe never asks us to cope with situations we’re not ready for.  So when this week brings you to a crisis point, you may be surprised at how well you handle the situation – with confidence, and very little anxiety.  Be proud.

 

Taurus (April 21 – May 20)

Best Day:  Friday 13th

Stay alert as the week could be laced with deception. Someone you don’t know very well may try to establish a closer friendship in order to extract a favour. This is fine as long as you know what the game is, and play by your own rules. If necessary, show this interloper the door.  

 

Gemini (May 21 to June 21)

Best Day:  Thursday 19th

If you have any sense of occasion, you’ll be out having fun.  The cosmos wastes no time in what could be a romantic gold rush, setting up introductions .  Worse case scenario?  You simply make some great new friends.  The best?  Meeting a special new someone who totally adores you.  

 

Cancer (June 22 – July 22)

Best Day: Tuesday 17th   

Emotions overflow this week while hopes and dreams take on a confident feeling. Take your time to explore the potential of what is being offered.  Although this is only the commencement of the journey – there’s excitement at the prospect of all that could now be possible.  The planets also represent the beginning of something that you love to do.  

 

Leo (July 23 – August 23)

Best Day:  Monday 16th

Career plans should soon come to fruition.  Submitting to a behind-the-scenes role no longer suits your determined, ambitious Leo style – and startled competitors will be caught off-guard as you take the lead.  At home, however, it’s compromise that will promote peace.

 

Virgo (August 24 – September 22)

Best Day:  Sunday 15th

You’ve learned to trust your intuition, but don’t give in to the other extreme – that is “selective hearing”.   Take good advice if offered.  You’re not alone in this world, Virgo – so if need be, call for help.  You’ll be surprised at how supportive friends and family can be.

 

Libra (September 23 – October 23)

Best Day:  Saturday 14th

Not all negotiations proceed smoothly this week – particularly if you’re pushed into overload.  If challenged, try not to exaggerate the situation or facts, as the naked truth has a way of stripping down lies.  Step cautiously, Libra.  Avoid conflict, if you can.

 

Scorpio (October 24 – November 22)

Best Day: Friday 13th

Put the week to good use, Scorpio.  The cosmos boosts your communication skills, and also helps to lighten the load.  The time’s also right to forge new romance or friendships.  All that’s needed is for to you shelve unnecessary fears.  A time for positive action.

 

Sagittarius (November 23 – December 21)

Best Day: Monday 16th

In a fair world, you wouldn’t get this week’s disruptive planetary line-up. Fortunately, all things move on – so faith and money are bound to come out of their tail spin soon.  You’re not being targeted, Sagittarius.  Troubles can happen to anyone, and invariably do.

 

Capricorn (December 22 – January 20)

Best Day: Tuesday 17th

Conflict seems the norm this week. Perhaps ideals have been a smidgen on the upper side – asking too much of yourself or others.  To avoid explosive emotions, try not to get your wires crossed. Make sure you know all of the facts before hitting the detonator.

 

Aquarius (January 21 – February 18)

Best Day:  Wednesday 18th

This week is all about pushing past intimidating barriers.  The reward?  Increased happiness.  Ditto for cash flow.  Communication and travel also feature highly.  But it’s not all work and no play.  If anything, a romantic bonus coincides with professional activities.

 

Pisces (February 19 – March 20)

Best Day: Saturday 14th

It’s not a week for fence-sitting. A hard ask as, right now, it seems that every decision leads to yet another option. Choose your direction, and stick with it. Best news? Great love can happen in an instant.  Someone special could gently stroll into your life.
