“September settles into a new paradigm, the beginning of a new cycle. You may still be having difficulty with patience--you can be aggressive and irritable with others and equally impatient with yourself. Just be careful not to get caught up in fantasies and romantic illusions. To keep from being easily deceived, find a creative outlet for your imagination"
~ Deborah
Happy Birthday Virgo! (Aug. 24-Sept. 22) Your month: If it's possible to simultaneously shine and remain hidden, you pull it off this month. You can do wonders from behind the scenes but you don't hide in the wings: Stand right out front. This makes you attractive and compelling, and some things are better kept hidden anyway, right? The problem is, you might feel like the bird you hold in your hand right now isn't as attractive as the 2 you think you see in the bush. Just try to keep this in mind: whatever weirdness you're stewing over concerning your partnership is probably just a figment of your very active imagination.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Things are good except for a few tiny details: Maybe a surprise partnership with a group upsets a friend, or maybe you got in to a club and they didn't, or maybe you won an award and they didn't, or you're developing a whole new set of hoity-toity friends leaving your old ones feeling left out, This conflict in your partnerships may be because you aren't thinking clearly, especially about work. Try, just for this month, to direct more attention to creatively transforming your home base and let go of any ego drives connected to work. Save work for next month.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov.21) Just hold on and be patient: Money gets much better next month. Most intelligent people understand that money and career drives often do not have much to do with each other, and that's unfortunately true for September. Don't be amazed at the number of important helpful people, status, and media opportunities handed to you on a silver platter over the next 30 days. Your charming ways and brilliant ideas find willing Sherpas and an expanding fan base, especially among those who can do the most for you. But money? That'll be October.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) It is said, "A dream written down with a date becomes a goal, a goal broken down into steps is a plan, a plan backed by action makes your dreams come true." You have ideas and plans, and it's exciting to see them transformed from muddled options and dreams to an actual life direction, even if you aren't actually aware of it. Palm fronds, ancient cities, exotic beaches-- those things are calling to you, so go ahead--indulge. Just keep this in mind: You'll have no peace from your future--you'll still be working on your plan while you work on your tan.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) You get the age-old question: "Do you want the good news or the bad news?" but this month the good news and the bad news are the same things. The good news is, expect lots of exciting changes where your family is concerned. It's good, because your hard work organizing shared resources enables the major changes in your family to run smoothly, and this makes (almost) everyone happy. But the bad news is, expect lots of exciting changes where your family is concerned. No matter how it plays out, you guys just do not like change.
Aquarius (Jan 21-Feb. 19) You might think your horoscope is a little unusual this month, but we recommend all Aquarians read the book, "Basic Psychic Development: A User's Guide to Auras, Chakras & Clairvoyance" byJohn Friedlander, and Gloria Hemsher. We suggest you give in to what is happening to your mind and go ahead: Unlock your psychic ability. You can trust your own instincts and intuition now without studying, but this book (or one like it) can act as a guide in your energy awareness. September is your month to understand and use auras, chakras, and clairvoyance. Make your invisible world visible.
Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20) You allow other people (your partner, for instance) to tell you how to live your life because sometimes you lack confidence, you don't like confrontations, and you don't like upsetting people. This month, though, you don't seem to be as concerned with that. You know how to be assertive and when to compromise with your friends or groups, so let it spill over into your day-to-day activities. Your challenge this month is to use your artistic and sensitive nature for the good of all concerned, without losing yourself in the process. Try embracing some alone time. Then, stand up for yourself.
Aries (Mar. 21-Apr. 20) You're naturally a hard worker, more of a doer than a talker. You usually manage to organize, actively and energetically, whomever or wherever you work. Whether it's the office filing system or the cars in the parking lot, you like your work environment to be the way you like it. This month is your month to figure out just how you want to work, to get all your creative synapses firing at the same time. So it can be a little frustrating to hold back. Sorry, but some of your best creative ideas may have to wait until December.
Taurus (Apr. 21-May-21) As much as your friends would love for you to party like a kid this month, you know how forces work in your Universe: If you want to get something done you have to do it yourself. That's a very grown-up philosophical quandary and you may be a little overwhelmed by it and want some escapist time. But once you understand your true nature, and the fact that you personally need to work for what you have, you'll get the support you need to do what you have to do. Then your friends will be happy to see that you have your moment.
Gemini (May 22-June 20) Your home and family are hugely important to you, and they sure let you know it this month. The conflict is, so does your career. The family part seems to run smoothly but sometimes it feels hard to express yourself to them about your work. But at work you feel like you're bashing your head against a wall--your timing is off just a little, just a couple of months. Be patient. Your work energy is aggressive, ambitious and pushy, but the current astrological climate indicates the importance of reaching your goals slowly. You want it now, but you can't have it now.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) You Cancerians love to be mysterious, un-reachable, to keep your own secrets and your own council while knowing everything about everyone else. You aren't comfortable sharing what you're thinking and feeling even though it seems like you wear your heart on your sleeve, and this is what makes September a little difficult. Honest communication is everything and not just at home, but in your career, too. Somehow partnerships and career collides, and if your communications aren't clear, what you try to keep hidden will burst out of hiding spreading shock and awe. Or, you get a promotion. One or the other.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 23) An important card in the Tarot deck is "Strength." It represents gentleness triumphing over aggression but also quiet power, and that needs to be you this month. You've spent so much of this year exploring what you value, searching for the elements you love in personal relationships and work, and you've finally decided what you won't tolerate. It's important to have a set of values as long as you aren't too critical of yourself and others, otherwise your self-esteem suffers. Here's where the "Strength" card comes in--be gentle with yourself and those you love: It brings more rewards than aggression will.
