Horoscopes for October 16 – 22, 2014
Aries
March 21 – April 20
How things wound up where they’re at is the burning question of the day. It would be great if you had the patience to analyze this, but it wouldn’t make it any easier to comprehend the nature of the changes that keep turning you around. At every step of the way you are reminded how important it is to forgive people who can’t be truthful enough about where they’re at to be who they claim to be. Keeping track of your own place in the scheme of things has been a full time job. Thank God you know how to stay focused on what’s essential when the going gets rough.
Taurus
April 21 – May 20
You have so much to bring together at a time when your physical vehicle is out of whack. Finding the strength for what needs doing keeps you walking the line between falling apart and pretending you have it together. Much of what’s going on right now depends upon your ability to monitor your energy and your time. Those close to you don’t have a clear sense of what you need from them. Don’t write anyone off just yet. If they seem distant it’s because too much has changed in a short time and they can’t handle the stress that comes with being there for it.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
Being blessed with enough backbone to deal with what faces you now is the name of the game. You are in a situation where your ability to impact the situation is limited by the fact that others have all the power. The fact that you’re here too is just by the skin of your teeth. In order to preserve your security it is essential that you go along with the program. This has already required you to compromise yourself in ways that are getting harder and harder to justify. Letting yourself off this hook could take even more guts than whatever it is that calls you to stay here.
Cancer
June 21 – July 20
The next new thing has come with a windfall that will make it easier for you to get on with your life. If it’s not about that it’s about knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt that you’re ready to take a leap that has been a long time coming. No one’s going to believe it when they find out that you finally decided to get up and go. With multiple prospects arrayed in front of you, choosing the right one is at issue. As you look at all your options the more attractive choice is going to offer you a chance to do more with your life than hang around and play step and fetch it forever.
Leo
July 21 – August 20
This would be easier if there was more to it than just proving that you have everything under control. No matter how smooth things appear to be on the surface, many of you would prefer to explode. If you could see the forest for the trees you would realize that doing what’s best in any situation always revolves around what’s going to work for all concerned. Your needs have taken so much precedence of late, it would be great if you could tone it down and let it be your inner light that shines, and let what you do in the name of love be what calls attention to you
Virgo
August 21–September 20
You can’t believe how crazy things get when it’s time to shift gears. At this point you don’t have time to analyze to much of anything but what it’s going to take you to get from A to B. Others are either clueless about what all of this requires of you, or they have too much of their own weight to carry to be there for you. The fact that you’re still talking to each other is a good sign – and the fact that you know there’s someone out there is somehow comforting. Don’t expect things to slow down. Get used to vibrating at the speed of light and keep your heart open and clear.
Libra
September 21 – October 20
LIBRA: September 21 – October 20
You could be guilty of caring too much. If that helps you explain all of this to yourself, so be it. Others are having a tough time being caught up in your story. If they seem impatient it’s because they wish they had known enough to speak up when it could have done some good. At this point you have a collision going on in one or more areas of your life keeps your too wired up to get a handle on whatever it is that makes all of it harder than it has to be. If you’ve got a chip on your shoulder, give yourself all the space in the world to knock it off, lighten up, and let it go.
Scorpio
October 21 – November 20
Before you go soliciting advice, keep in mind that others aren’t as objective about your situation as you need them to be. Even if they mean well, they have no way to comprehend, let alone empathize with, the circumstances that are arrayed in front of you right now. Keeping yourself centered will help you remain on top of things. There is lots of gossip going around that concerns things that are no one’s business but your own. By the time it gets back to you, you will be either totally pissed off, or totally amused. If half of it were true your life would be twice as exciting.
SAGITTARIUS
November 21 – December 20
You keep going around trying to rally support for your cause. There’s a fine line between that and trying to get everyone to go into agreement with the way you need to spin things. Whatever you’re trying to defend shouldn’t need this much back up if you’re really clear about where you’re coming from. When something is in integrity, it has no problem standing on its own. For someone who prides themselves on their ethics, your actions and whatever’s going over the Party Line could use a little tidying up and a second glance at how well you are walking your talk.
Capricorn
December 21 – January 20
It’s hard to tell which way things are going. Conflicting interests are all over the place and you’re the only one who sees the forest for the trees. To be honest, you’re the only one who has what it takes to figure this out, and no one seems to be listening. As you contemplate the need to step in an make your influence felt, be aware that others are pushing their own agenda. They have so much riding on whether or not it gets birthed, you will have a tough time making them see what it will cost them to keep pursuing this trend. Use your smarts, and pray that things go smoothly.
Aquarius
January 21 – February 20
To keep trying to go along with the program is challenging so much of what matters to you, you are torn between wanting to strike out on your own, and the need to stay huddled up inside a blanket of security. Knowing what to do and where to go next would weigh less heavily on your brain if you could see around the corner. Beyond whatever lies in fron of you now, the next few twists and turns will take you through a gauntlet that leads to an opportunity that you could not have seen coming. Keep towing the line, and be prepared to reap the fruits of your labors.
Pisces
February 21 – March 20
You’ve got more going on than most of us. For some reason what would otherwise be difficult is easy. I looks like you’ve had an escape of some sort; one that restored your Soul and took you out of here in body, mind and spirit. So much has moved around and changed, you feel like a newborn babe and you’re wondering if you can handle this. God knows what you are ready for, but I will tell you one thing: before the week is out you will find more than one way to make everything work without having to sell your soul, or be expected to bow down to anyone.
