IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY
At some point over the next few months you will have to confront the fact that the path you are on is not the right one for you. And at that point a far better path will open up in front of you. That’s the one you must follow.
Something you always thought was true will be shown to be false today but don’t feel bad about being mislead. It’s better to be the trusting sort who sometimes gets it wrong than the cynic who never believes anything at all.
You may be out of favour with someone you work alongside but don’t change what you say and do just to please them. If they want to get along with you that’s fine, but if they don’t then that’s fine as well. It’s not the biggest of deals.
The progress you have made in a creative endeavour is remarkable and if you keep at it over the next few days you will reach a level that no one thought possible. No one but you that is. You always knew you had what it takes.
The only way your rivals can undermine your confidence is if you allow what they say to get to you. Keep them at arm’s length if you can but, if you cannot, treat everything they say about your efforts as mere sour grapes.
Your likes and dislikes are exceedingly strong, so much so that some people are in fear of you. But is that really how you want to be seen? Maybe you should tone down your act a bit – while keeping your standards high, of course.
You have pretty much come and gone as you please of late but over the next few days you will find obstacles popping up that hold you back a bit. According to the planets that’s actually a good thing as it makes accidents less likely.
LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):
Be careful about what claims you put out into the world as the new week begins, because there is a danger you could speak too soon and say something that turns people against you. Librans are supposed to be peacemakers, not warmongers!
The more advice you get from friends and relatives the more inclined you will be to ignore it, especially if it goes against what you want to believe. You often find it hard to admit that you could be wrong but, on this occasion, it looks like you are!
Now that communications planet Mercury is going through its retrograde phase you must make sure that all your claims can be backed up by facts. If you make even the smallest of errors today your rivals will be on your case in a flash.
You have enough responsibilities on your plate as it is, so refuse to take on any more, no matter how hard some people might beg. You may have sympathy for them but if they are a long way behind in their schedule that’s their problem, not yours.
Something you overhear (maybe when you should not have been listening) will shock you today but don’t take action on it until you have dug deeper and found out if it is true. Some people love to gossip, regardless of the facts.
If your internal alarm bell goes off over the next 24 hours you must not ignore it. The fact that something deep inside you is trying to warn that not all is happiness and light means you need to pay attention, and tread carefully.
