October 2013 Horoscopes- Scorpio

The Sting of the Scorpion

The Sting of the Scorpion (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Did you know that when food is scarce, scorpions have the ability to slow their metabolism down enough to survive on only one insect a year? Perhaps you’d heard that researchers discovered they were able to freeze a scorpion overnight, only to watch it thaw out and walk away the next morning. Your sign is a survivor, Scorpio, and it’s known for its ability to navigate the dark side effectively. This skill will come in handy this month, as the new moon in the darkest part of your chart, the 12th house of secrets and closure, will be harshly angled to Uranus in your house of work and health, and Pluto (your ruler!) in your house of communication. You got a taste of this last month, but because this month is powered by a new moon, things will get even messier. You might be having problems at your workplace, or having it out with an underhanded co-worker. Or maybe YOU’RE the underhanded co-worker, and your mis-deeds are finally biting you in the butt. Alternatively, you might be having transportation or health issues. If your issues are work or health related, they should be resolved by the 18th, when a lunar eclipse in your 6th brings things to climax. Know your chart? See if any planets or points fall at 25 degrees of Aries. If so, keep an eye on that area of life. Luckily, the beginning of the month starts off on a better note. On the 3rd, Mercury in your sign will trine Neptune in Pisces in your 5th house of true love. Pisces is a fellow water sign that blends beautifully with yours, and things seem to be going swimmingly in your love life. When the Sun moves into your sign near the end of the month and signals Pisces in the same way (on the 26th), things will get even better. Watch out for the 13th, when the Sun in your 12th house will square Jupiter in your 9th. Travel or education matters will go wrong on this day, or you may have problems with a publishing or broadcasting project. Also, we need to talk Mercury for a second, cause this little bugger is causing problems all month. Not only will the stinker be going retrograde on the 21st, but he’ll also be conjuncting Saturn in your sign TWICE- on the 8th and the 30th- which could cause problems with your money or friendships since Mercury rules these areas. Things should straighten out next month when Mercury goes direct on the 12th, although you have to deal with Mercury hitting Saturn in your first house of self one more time on the 26th of November. Saturn in your first house has been putting pressure on you since October 2012, and will continue to do so until 2015. October born Scorpios are finally coming out from under Saturn’s glare, but those born in early November are currently feeling the burn. Don’t fret- although it can feel rough now, any changes you’re going through are ultimately for the best. Mars enters your friendship house on the 8th, so you can expect lots of activity in that area all month. On the 20th, Mars will oppose Neptune in your 5th, making for some uneasiness surrounding love and friendship. You may have gotten friend-zoned (we’ve all been there), or perhaps you were the one who had to break the news to a lovestruck friend that you just want to be pals. Alternatively, a creative project may go awry this day. Luckily, on Halloween, Mars will trine Pluto (your ruler) in your house of communication, smoothing things over.

September 2013 Horoscopes- Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo

Taurus

The new moon on the 5th occurs in your fifth house of true love and creativity. What fun for you! Looking to get pregnant? This is a wonderful aspect. With Jupiter in your 3rd house holding hands lovingly with this new moon, perhaps it will be a sibling who announces a pregnancy. Alternatively, you may have a brilliant idea for a creative project. Trust your hunch and get to work on it. At the very least, this aspect suggests you take a wonderful trip (not too far!) with your love. Why don’t you find a cute little B&B in a nearby town and get to work on that baby making! Mars in your 4th house of home indicates that there’s a lot going on at Chez Bull. Whether it’s renovations, family in town, or just some temper tantrums with your roommates, expect it to last all month. On 9/14, your ruler, Venus, in your partnership sector, makes beautiful music with Neptune in your house of hopes and dreams. Is an engagement on the way? With all the activity involving your home, love life, and family, it’s a serious possibility.  Not to mention the full moon in this same hopes and dreams house on the 19th which will bring something very important to you to a climax. On the same day as the full moon, your ruler Venus will conjunct Saturn in your partnership sector and sextile Pluto in your 9th house. Travel will be divine on this day, and if you’re traveling with a partner, you may just end up with a ring on it! Just be careful mid-month, as mercury in your house of work and health will oppose Uranus in your house of closure, and both will be squared by pluto in your travel house. Work could be stressful, especially if there’s travel or higher education involved. You may feel like you’re underperforming, or a co-worker could be plotting against you. Mars in your house of home is egging it all on and not helping things one bit- you’re feeling the pressure on all sides. The end of the month is a mixed bag. On 9/26, Venus in your partnership sector (I’m focusing on Venus b/c it’s your ruler) will trine jupiter in your 3rd house, and this could be the day you two make things official. Yet on the 28th, mars in your home sector will square venus in your partnership sector, indicating that there may be some arguments. Instead of fighting with your love, why not take that passionate energy and use it between the sheets? My advice? Make love, not war.

Gemini

The end of August was good for you- your ruler Mercury in your house of home smiled at Jupiter in in your house of income. Perhaps a home loan came through or you got an offer for your house. The home luck continues as a bright new moon on the 5th- arm in arm with Jupiter- illuminates this same sector, making your prospects even brighter.  Watch your tongue on the 9th, when Mars in your communication sector squares Saturn in your work sector. You might have it out with a co-worker or client, or a deal could go awry. Also, watch your damn driving, who are you, Danica Patrick? Mars can make you a bit aggressive on the road rage front, so reign it in. We want to keep you healthy to enjoy the rewards that await you at the end of the month. But first, you gotta get through Sept 16. This day will be tiring for just about every sign. Your ruler, Mercury, will oppose Uranus, pitting your houses of love and friendship against each other and squaring Pluto in your house of other people’s money. Make sure everyone’s paying their way in your world- you’re not an ATM. Luckily, the full moon on the 19th in Pisces brings a career matter to a head. Aiming for a promotion? You just might get it, especially after the kiss Venus in your work sector gave to Neptune in your career sector a few days earlier. This is a big deal- new title, new money. Perhaps some fancy press. This is what you’ve been waiting for.  Just be careful on the 20th when Mercury in your love house squares Jupiter in your money house. Mo money mo problems, amirite? And don’t rub that promotion in too hard with your co-workers. A fight at the end of the month between mars in your communication sector and venus in your work sectors could have colleagues seeing green. Haters gonna hate, enjoy it while you got it!

Cancer

Lucky little crabby, current star of the zodiac. Early in the month, Jupiter, currently in your sign, links up with the new moon (your ruler!) in your 3rd house of communication. Methinks someone might have their eye on a new car. This would be a great time to sign any contract on the dotted line. Or perhaps a nice little out-of-town jaunt is in order. At the very least, this new moon will serve to make sure your world is going smoothly on a day to day basis. Hey, these days, that would be enough for me. Mars spends the month in your 2nd house, driving up expenses, and on the 12th, venus moves into your house of true love, increasing your chances of meeting someone special. He may not end being Mr. Right, but there’s nothing wrong with a little Mr. Right Now (hubba, hubba). Why not say what the hell and agree to that Jamaican vacation with your new beau? On the 14th, love and travel will be delightful when Venus in your love house beams over to Neptune in your travel house. Good thing too- you’ll need a  distraction from the tug of war going on between your home and career houses mid-month. If you have an S.O, chances are they’re none too happy with the hours you’re spending on the job. Not getting paid what you think you should? Perhaps it’s time to look for another gig. With Jupiter in your sign, this is a great year to branch out. Pluto goes direct on the 21st, which should make partnership matters in love or business a little more clear, and the full moon on the 19th brings a travel or education matter to conclusion. If you applied to the school of your dreams, this might be the time you get your yes or no. With some lovely aspects between your love and partnership houses at the end of the month, your Mr. Right Now just might turn out to be…GASP…Mr. Right.

Leo

This months sees to it that you have energy to spare! With Mars in your sign for the first time in years, you have more energy than you know what to do with. How about channeling some of that energy into making some more bones (moolah, scrilla, you get the picture). With the sun (your ruler) in your second house of income for most of the month, you’re in prime position for some cold hard cash. On Sept 5, the new moon in this house makes beautiful music with Jupiter in your 12th house, suggesting money comes from a creative endeavor. Alternatively, lions working in the health sector might get a raise. Just watch out for the 9th when mars in your sign will square saturn in your house of home. Yikes. Mars has a tendency to make you a teensy bit more aggressive than you intend, so be extra sensitive around family members. Another explosive day to watch out for is the 16th, when Mercury in your 3rd house opposes Uranus in your 9th, making travel or education plans go unexpectedly awry.  Pluto in your 6th squares the pair, bringing your workplace or health into the situation. A deal could fall apart at work, or illness could interfere with a vacation. With Mars tripling the power of this t-square with a strong beam, personally I’d hide in bed all day. On the 19th, Venus in your house of home conjuncts Saturn, relieving any tension left over from earlier in the month. Any home decisions at this time will be beneficial. Money is back in the picture on the 19th, when a full moon in your 8th house brings an influx of cash. A bonus or inheritance might be coming your way. On the 26th, Venus in your house of home trines Jupiter in your house of closure. If you need to rest or work on a creative project by yourself, this is a lovely aspect.

September 2013 Horoscopes- Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries

Capricorn

Someone’s feeling the itch. No, not that itch. The travel itch! The new moon on the 5th in your house of travel links up with Jupiter in your house of partners. Why not get the hell out of dodge and go to South America with your love? Your aspects couldn’t be better. Alternatively, if you’re working on a novel or screenplay, this might be the time you get a publisher or producer attached. Mars in your 8th house of other’s people’s money will be driving up expenses all month, so just keep an eye on that credit card. On the 9th, Mars will square Saturn (your ruler) in your house of hopes and dreams. You may find you don’t have the funds to complete a beloved dream, or maybe you realize you’re just not that into something you thought you couldn’t live without. The full moon in your house of communication on the 19th will give you the words to admit it. Alternatively, this may be the day you sign an important contract or buy a new car. Also keep your phone on you, as you may hear big news from a sibling. Mid-month, Pluto in your sign t-squares Mercury in your house of career and Uranus in your house of home. You’ve had a hard time balancing family and career, and the cosmos are ready for you to do something about it already.  When Pluto in your sign goes direct on the 21st, you’ll find it much more easy to find a solution. The end of the month brings fun with friends and your partner, as Venus and Jupiter will embrace lovingly in these houses.

Aquarius

Money, money, money, money….MONEY. This month is all about the benjamins, as a new moon on the 5th links your house of other people’s money with your house of work. Been fundraising for a new business? This month might put that cash in the bank. Alternatively, you may decide to transform your health routine- why not jump on the gluten-free train or join a new gym? With Jupiter in your health house until next summer, you have the best aspects for losing weight and improving your health. Additionally, on the 14th, Venus in your house of career will smooch Neptune in your income house, and a full moon in that same income house will bring even MORE funds on the 19th. Holy moly! I was serious about this money crap. Mars in your partnership house all month will put the emphasis on another- whether it’s a partner in love or business. Watch out for the 9th, when Mars will square Saturn (one of your rulers) in the your career house. All this focus on work and money might have you neglecting your S.O. The 16th gets a little tricky as well, when Mercury in your travel house opposes your OTHER ruler (Uranus) in your 3rd house. Travel and communication won’t go as planned, especially with Capricorn in the your 12th house bringing some dark energy into the mix with a t-square. A contract might go awry- perhaps this new angel investor buried some unsavory terms deep in the paperwork. If you’re a writer, you might experience the ol’ writer’s block. Luckily, on the 26th, Venus in your career house will ping Jupiter in your work house, putting you back on top.

Pisces

Partnered up? You will be after this month! A new moon in your partnership sector on the 5th is beautifully angled to good luck Jupiter in your house of true love. These are truly gorgeous aspects for matters of the heart. Alternatively, you could partner up on a creative endeavor. If it’s for work, you’ll be a busy little bee, as Mars will rev up your work and health sector all month, bringing in assignments left and right. Skip travel on the 9th, as Mars will square saturn in your travel house on this day, suggesting work will trump pleasure. Instead, travel on the 14th when Venus in your travel house will trine your ruler, Neptune, in your own sign. This is a lovely aspect which suggests romance galore. Things are tense for all signs mid-month, when Mercury and Uranus oppose each other in your money houses and t-square Pluto in your friendship house. Money you were counting on might not come through, or perhaps money will cause tension with a friend. Mars in your work and health house will be fanning the flames, so things could get heated. Luckily, you aren’t directly in the crosshairs for this one, so things should turn out okay. On the 19th, Venus will conjunct Saturn in your house of travel/publishing, and they both will sextile Pluto in your house of hopes and dreams. Venus rules your communication house as well as your house of other people’s money- you might finally get funding for a novel or screenplay. Also on that day, a full moon occurs in your sign, meaning something very important to you will come to a conclusion. This is especially true if you’re a pisces between the degrees of 21 and 29, or if any of your planets or cusps fall on those degrees. Just be careful on the 20th, when Mercury in your 8th house of other people’s money squares Jupiter (your OTHER ruler) in the 5th house. You may fight with a lover over money or quit a creative project abruptly. Luckily, on the 26th, Venus in the 9th house will trine Jupiter in the 5th. This is an excellent time to travel with a lover or perhaps apply to college or grad school. 2 days later, Venus will square Mars in the 6th, suggesting work or illness will disrupt your trip. Phooey. When Pluto goes direct in your friendship house on the 21st, you may finally iron out any problems you had with a buddy.

Aries

On September 5, a new moon in your 6th house links arms with Jupiter in your 4th house. You might get a new work assignment that fits in with your home life beautifully, or perhaps you’ll even get the opportunity to work from home! Alternatively, you might start a new health regiment- maybe you’ll finally buy that treadmill for your living room you’ve had your eye on. Your ruler, Mars, spends the month in your house of true love…lucky you! Unfortunately on the 9th, mars will square Saturn in your house of other people’s money which could cause you to fight with your love about money. Alternatively, funding for a creative project could fall through. If it’s for the latter, don’t fret, because on the 19th venus in your money house will ping Neptune in your 12th house of creativity, saving the day. Brace yourself, because mid-month, things get dicey. Mercury in your partnership house will oppose Uranus in your own sign, and both will be squared by Pluto in your house of career. Been burning the midnight oil on the job at the expense of your partner? It might blow up this month. Alternatively, the two of you might be on opposing sides of the whole “marriage” thing. Mars in the 5th house will be pouring gasoline on this fire, ram, and it might not be pretty. If you’re single, this could be in regards to a work partner. You may not be seeing eye to eye on the creative aspects of a joint endeavor, and you could decide to part ways. I’m not gonna lie, Aries, you’re directly in the crosshairs of this one. What’s new, right? You’re an old pro at this t-square thing by now, seeing as it’s happened a few times since 2012. Good thing you just might be the most resiliant sign of the zodiac. If it all gets to be too much, just breathe. The full moon in your house of closure on the 19th may be just what you need to let it all go and prepare for new beginnings. I’ll tell you what I told Libra- go take a bath and pour yourself a glass (or three) of wine. The world can wait. The end of the month sees a dramatic tango between your houses of home, love, and transformation.  I predict a serious breakthrough for you.

August 2013 Horoscopes- Libra through Pisces

Libra– After a stressful career month, August will bring some much needed relief. Let the good times roll as you catch up with friends and loosen up a little! The new moon on the 6th in your house of friendship is nicely angled to your house of partnerships- a dream near and dear to your heart may finally come true! Perhaps you’ll get engaged or start a new business with a friend. Whatever comes up may be unexpected. Things get a little rocky mid-month, when you find it hard to balance the needs of your home and career. Breathe, Libra, it will all be ok. Venus (your ruler!) is right at home in your sign all month, giving you charm in spades. You’ll be able to talk your way into and out of everything, especially on the 26th when Venus sends a friendly ping to your house of partnerships. The sun in the 12th house this day also sends a lovely vibration to your work and health house, suggesting creative projects or a new health routine will go smoothly. A full moon on the 20th illuminates a love matter. You may profess your love to your one-and-only, or decide to go your separate ways. Alternatively, a creative project could come to an end. With the sun entering the introspective house of your chart at the end of the month, this is a good time to create and heal. Mars will be entering your friendship house as well, so it’s the perfect time to squeeze in some last minute summer BBQs before fall takes over!

Scorpio– Screw the saying “Knowledge is Power.” Power is power, right Scorpio? This month you’ll show the world just what you’re made of, as a host of planets light up your house of fame and career. The new moon on the 6th is beautifully angled to Uranus, suggesting you get a job offer or work assignment out of the blue. It doesn’t get much better than this. You’ll finally get the title or big project you deserve and the press to go with it! You might have some trouble breaking it to your current employer, however, as a tense t-square between your communication houses and your house of work will cause chaos in the sky. I would avoid traveling this month as well, as an argument between your health house and travel house is a recipe for disaster. Or maybe you’ll just be too busy with work to properly enjoy a vacation. Your ruler in the 3rd house yelling at Uranus in your 6th suggests you might be treating some co-workers unkindly in your quest to get ahead. We all know you have unlimited reserves of power, scorpion, but you don’t always have to use them. Nobody wants Prince Joffrey as their boss, and you can’t feel healthy or positive about it either. Here’s the thing- knowledge IS power, and the more you know, the better leader and co-worker you’ll be. It may take a few more years, and a few more harsh lessons, to grasp this. A full moon on the 20th illuminates a housing or home matter. You might sign a new lease or finally close escrow. The month ends positively, with a beautiful connection between the Sun in your house of friendship and Saturn in your sign. Whatever may be going on in your personal or professional life, you’ll have supportive friends watching your back and cheering for you all the way. Alternatively, a wish close to your heart may finally come true. Saturn will ensure it’s the real deal and will affect you positively for many years to come.

Sagittarius– This month has your stamp all over it. Why? Because it’s chalk full of your favorite thing- TRAVEL! The new moon on the 6th makes this a glorious time to take a trip abroad. If you can get away with your true love- even better- as this moon is beautifully angled to Uranus in the 5th. How romantic would it be if you got engaged in a foreign country? Single Sag’s might find unexpected love on a long-distance trip. Hello, Latin Lover! Can you say Juan Pablo? Alternatively, you may start a novel or screenplay, or decide to apply to a university. You will have a burst of creativity to help fuel your new venture. Watch your expenses with Mars in your house of other people’s money until the end of the month. Also, mid-month brings a tense t-square between your financial houses and your creative house. Money you thought would come through for a project might not, or perhaps a child has an expensive problem. The end of the month brings a lovely vibration between your house of career and your house of creativity however, so you should come out on top. With Jupiter (your ruler!) in your house of other people’s money all year, you won’t be feeling broke for long!

Capricorn– You’ve sure had your share of ups and downs, haven’t you my little goat friend? Pluto in your sign since 2008 has shown you that you’re made of steel (my money’s on Superman as a Cap, how about you?). The last couple of years, Pluto has squared Uranus in your house of home, prompting you to move from A to B, to C to D, and maybe back to A again, all in the pursuit of finding your true self. This can’t have been easy, considering Capricorns are the very definition of stable! The new moon has you seriously considering putting down roots for longer than a hot second. You’ll hear about a home loan and maybe even get more than you expected. Alternatively, you may receive a surprise inheritance or property tax refund. This month, you may be undergoing some serious changes on the relationship front as well. Perhaps you’re moving for a spouse or job, or dealing with the repercussions of a previous move. A full moon in your second house of income on the 20th will ensure you have plenty of funds to deal with whatever housing matter comes up. Your ruler, Saturn, has been in your house of friendships and will continue to be there for the next few years. Friends are important to you, but they may have taken a backseat to work and relationship obligations over the past few months. Luckily, the Sun in your house of travel sends a friendly beam to your house of friendships on the the 31st. This is the perfect time to take a trip abroad with friends. It will surely be filled with good times. Alternatively, a wish may come true on this day, or you may have good luck with a screenplay or novel you’re working on. With Jupiter in your house of relationships, an engagement might even be coming! If you’re single, get out and circulate, as Jupiter will be in this area of your chart until next July!

Aquarius– Work sure has been a bit of a headache lately huh? Between miscommunications and stalled plans, you’re starting to wonder if things will ever sort themselves out. Jupiter in your 6th house of work and Pluto in your 12th house of closure and secrets have been doing a feisty tango, leaving you feeling stuck in the middle. Just when everything was looking so good, it all fell apart! Don’t worry, once Jupiter passes out of Pluto’s orbit (in early Sept), the good luck planet will resume its beneficial healing of your work house. After all, nothing in life worth having comes easy, right? Alternatively, you could be dealing with some bad medical mojo, so be sure to eat healthy, exercise, and lay off the booze already would you? The new moon on the 6th turns your attention to your relationships, where fortunately, things are looking great! Uranus (your ruler!) is holding a loving hand with the new moon, and you’ll be surprised at how much fun you can have with your partner on a weekend getaway. Communication will be better than ever! Alternatively, you may form a new business partnership, and the contract will be to your liking- maybe even better than you expected! A full moon in your own sign on the 20th brings a matter close to your heart to fulfillment. When the Sun in your 8th house of other people’s money sends a beautiful beam to Saturn in your house of career on the 31st, the funding you’ve been waiting for may finally come through! You’re sure to get press around this one, and it’s likely to benefit you for a long time to come. Finally, Mars will bring sexy back when it enters your relationship sector at the end of the month. Va Va Voom!

Pisces– Pisces, Pisces, Pisces, always last, but never least. Money has been all over the place for you for a while, and so have your friendships! Lately, you’ve been working on a creative project that you hoped would finally earn you some cold, hard moolah (you’re not a materialistic sign, but hey, everyone’s gotta eat, right?). Unfortunately, it’s been an uphill battle, and a friend you thought was helping you, might just be getting in your way! Hold tight, as everything should pass by early September. A new moon on the 6th will usher in a new work project. It’s in beautiful sync with Uranus in your house of income, and you might get even more money than you thought! Alternatively, you might decide to start a health routine or join a pricey gym- luckily you’ll find you have enough funds to carry you through. A full moon on the 20th brings something to a close. Perhaps a creative project, a bad habit, or that toxic “love affair” you’ve been carrying on. If you’re harboring any secrets, you might not be able to keep them hidden for long.  August 26th will be divine for you, as the Sun in your house of partnerships signals your ruler (Neptune) in your first house of self. You may get engaged or sign with a new business partner. A legal decision may end up in your favor. The month ends on a great note as well- on Aug 31st, the sun in your partnership zone shakes a loving hand with Saturn in your house of travel and publishing. You may take a trip with your love, or find a publisher for the novel you’ve been working so hard on. With Jupiter in your fifth house of true love and creativity until next July, these areas will shine for you!
