Money is Aladin’s lamp.
-Byron in Canto XII of Don Juan
The summer is wrapping up and your life should be flowing along much better by now. The heat from the summer time is off, and we are all waiting for the next season to hurry up and get here.
Aries: it is a great time to consider slowing your headlong rush to get forward. Not that anything drastic is likely to happen to you, just that it’s a good time to stop and consider exactly what it is you are trying to accomplish. Ease up on the throttle, just a bit; lift your foot from the accelerator pedal.
Taurus: unfortunately, it would seem that you are facing much opposition these days. Take heart, because you know you are right; it’s just the trolls under the bridge that are trying to get to you. Don’t ever let the furry guys get you down.
Gemini: it probably feels pretty good to not have all that energy coursing through your veins right now. Sit back and reflect on how far you have come, especially in your personal relationships. It is a good time to moving ahead with life, if you can just get over some of those problems you have been experiencing-trouble letting go of old friends?
Cancer: you’ll want to watch your short temper these days. Despite the fact that the fall weather seems cooler, your little tantrums are definitely not cool. Perhaps you are builing a fire for the winter, just a little too early. Try and guard against being to posesive or vindictive this month-you’ll enjoy yourself more that way.
Leo: you’re stuck in this rocking horse position these days, a little tired from fighting the same trolls that the Taurus people are going against, and tired from too much of a good thing last month. While everyone else was rocked by cosmic events, you just kept on trucking along. Your new fall wardrob will become you. As always, party on!
Virgo: you are having a good birthday this year, aren’t you? All things considered, at least, it would seem like a good time of the year, what with your birthday and all. Mercury µ did a fly-by on the Sun Ô, lending you much-needed extra stength and vitality. Brace youself, though, there’s a hard winter ahead. But you knew that. You are proably already regretting the change in work locations. Shouldn’t you consider consultimng an astrologer before a drstic change?
Libra: Venus € is about to leave your sign for another lap around the zodiac. While she was here, though, your sense of beauty and depth of feeling, especially this feeling of being “in-harmony” with mankind (womankind, personkind, whateverkind) has been heightened. It would be a good time to consider redecorating your new office space. Unless, of course, you live on the West Coast.
Scorpio: October is the begining of the good times for you Scoprions out there! It just doesn’t get any better than this! Good fortuine, good deeds, good thoughts all seem to be wending your way. enjoy it! Get out and make the most of this fabulous energy! (See Leo and party on!)
Sagittarius: it’s just not been a good month, now has it? And while all the Scorpios and Leos may be having a party, you are beset with niggling little problems which you can’t seem to escape. Relax a little, your luck will return. Maybe.
Capricorn: just for one shining moment, right at the beginning of the month, you thought the world was going to an okay place again. Not that any astrology should shatter you conceptions of reality, but the world is still the world, and you’ll find that most of the people you come in contanct with this month are no darn good. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Aquarius: Lady luck has taken a temporary vacation from your conrer of the zodiac. Not to worry, just be warned that it’s the way it is, right now. No luck means no good luck, but then, it also means no bad luck either. Which could be a blessing in disguise. Enjoy the apparent tranquillity. And watch your driving.
Pisces: well, now the pressure is off, or so one would hope. And eve if the pressure is not off, at least it should be lessened. Or perhaps the better word would be “lesson.” Aks yourself, “Self, what did I learn this summer?”
