LIBRA: September 21 – October 20 A sense of uncertainty, and the idea that you need to take your future into account are lighting up your thought process. Recent mind blows have made it necessary to come up with a new plan. You wish you knew what you wanted, and it would be even better if you had what it takes to make it work. It's good that you're turning things around. This would be the time to consider relocating. Foreign territory may work for some of you. With nothing sure or written in stone you would do well to remove yourself from what's known and familiar, long enough to see yourself.

SCORPIO: October 21 – November 20 You are in the middle of a change that verges on the incredible. None of this is just business as usual, no matter how it looks. As the forces that watch over you conspire to move you where you need to go, your external reality is consumed with people and things that are part of this deeper process. In many ways you don't have a choice about where things go. You may be called to break at least one of your favorite rules. Being able to get your pictures out of the way, enough to cultivate a willingness to see that all possibilities are there for you, is where it's at right now.

SAGITTARIUS: November 21 – December 20 You have finally seen the light. After a long stretch of making believe you had it all figured out, you’ve gotten out of the box far enough to have a more objective sense of where you stand with life and yourself. This in no way implies that you know what you want to do next — but at least you know what you don’t want. What you’re unwilling to live with has been your constant companion up until this point. Think about that. And think about how long it takes for any of us to release what no longer serves us. Be patient, lighten up, and trust that it’s safe to move on.

CAPRICORN: December 21 - January 20 Too many things have been rearranged for you to think that everything else doesn’t need to adjust right along with it. Preoccupation with how the partner or the relationship sector is — or isn’t — measuring up is a huge item for many of you. The sense that no matter who you’re with or what’s going on, everything comes down to you has you questioning the point of getting, or remaining, involved. All of your questions will ultimately lead you to see that the only way your life is going to work is if you bring yourself to it, and leave enough room for others to do the same.

AQUARIUS: January 21 – February 20 You guys don't have too much to worry about. Even if your life is full of things to do, you have to admit you're having a relatively easy time. Something clicked a few months ago and you decided to stop making things harder than they have to be. All the energy that once went into keeping it all together, has been freed up by the understanding that everything is perfect. You don't have to do much but be these days. If those words ring true the next stretch will be more fun than a barrel of monkeys. If you're still trying too hard, back off and look at what it gets you.

PISCES: February 21 – March 20 Off on your own little vision quest, things are starting to look a little nuts. The gap between what you thought would happen, and the reality of what's actually going on is mind blowing. It would be great if you could change the scenery, but all of this has become part of a deal that you don't remember signing up for. In situations like this, all you can do is maintain a sense of humor and do your best to keep everyone happy. Being all things to all people, and having to use a lot of pretense to maintain the status of your relationships, may not feel right, but you don't have a choice.

ARIES: March 21 – April 20 The next few weeks will give you plenty of time to see where this is going. The pace has been too over the top for you to be able to stop and look at how things are stacking up. With you guys, it's always touch and go. Walking the fine line where what you are set on comes up against the things that you can't control hasn't been easy. Weighing one set of options against another and living with the fear that the past is always going to haunt you, many of you are a nervous wreck. Within this anxiety, it would be great if you could calm down and focus on the work at hand.

TAURUS: April 21 – May 20 You know for sure that you need a radical change but you can’t push for anything beyond a certain point. It’s also clear that change for its own sake could take you from the frying pan into the fire. Holding on in a situation that demands a steady application of discipline and an even heavier dose of codependence has you wondering what it’s all for. Don’t think too much. If this seems like a never ending story I suspect that the next chapter will be more interesting than the one you’re on now. Hang in there. Change is afoot. Another way out is about to open up your life.

GEMINI: May 21 – June 20 Too many things are on the line for you to do much but figure out how to walk it. If there are challenges, it’s time to meet them instead of blaming people, places, and things for whatever isn’t working. Imbalances in your relationships can only be handled from a truthful place. Don’t keep trying to heal the situation with frantic appeals that only pressurize a delicate situation. If you can center yourself and come from a place of knowing that nothing can bring you down, the disturbances in your outer reality will smooth out and return to oneness before you know it.

9 of 12

CANCER: June 21 – July 20 You have a few more weeks before things kick up. Whatever you’re facing, it won’t pay to get overly anxious. If anything you need to relax and stretch your heart and your mind far enough to embrace the idea that you’re big enough to take this on. From what you’ve already accomplished it’s clear to just about everyone that you have nothing to worry about and no need to feel as though you’re going to make a fool of yourself. What’s about to happen is nothing compared to some of the things you’ve left in the dust. Trust me; you can handle just about anything.

LEO: July 21 – August 20 Whatever your work involves, keep your shoulder to the wheel. Even though your personal life has plenty going on, it would be therapeutic for you to detach just enough to bring your attention to where your work goals are going. If it's time to move, go for it. Location is everything and if your dreams aren't coming true in one place you may need to make them happen elsewhere. Your attitude is what counts more than anything. The impulse to get beyond certain barriers in order to be free to explore your truer longings isn't just a whim. It holds the key to the rest of your life.

11 of 12

VIRGO: August 21 – September 20 You could be clear as a bell. Don't spend too much time over analyzing your take on this situation. The impulse to take charge, instead of waiting for others to figure it out, will go a long way to help everyone get straight with you. It looks to me like whoever you're trying to help deserves whatever you have to give them. Your support will pave the way for things that will make life better for both of you. Wait and see. As time goes on you will be so glad that you had the sense to step in. How it winds up serving you in the end will absolutely blow you away.
