Scorpio The Phoenix (Oct. 23-Nov. 20)
Activities involving education or teaching are favored. Short distance travel will go well. There are positive exchanges between you and your neighbors, siblings or those nearby your vicinity. There are challenges in romance and in relationship(s) to children.
For All Signs: Venus, goddess of love, beauty and harmony, continues to traverse troubled waters. This is a time that will test the meddle of our relationships. Dormant or hidden tensions that are gnawing at the edges of any relationship are likely to become apparent now. Make an effort to recognize the difference between ego conflicts and genuine difference of opinion. In ego conflicts, we posture and wave our feathers. We operate with false pride and do battle for the sake of being “right.” If the differences are truly profound, we may decide the relationship is not worth the effort to move forward.
Aries: Irritability and a tendency to short temper may be your companion this week. Beware the temptation to obsess over minor issues. Take especially good care of your body at this time. You are in a physically low cycle and subject to accident or minor injuries with tools, vehicles or exercise.
Taurus: Conditions concerning relationships are complex indeed. The images are mixed. It appears one type of relationship is growing stronger while another one may be going south. Some Taureans receive good news concerning education, publications, the Internet and travel.
Gemini: You may feel somewhat edgy and irritable this week. Parts of your mind are scattered into so many corners that it is hard to pull everything together. It doesn’t help that you can’t be sure if you have the truth or all the facts. Make a special effort to keep up with keys, tickets and other small items.
Cancer: This week begins with the New Moon in the sign of Scorpio. You may conclude projects or make decisions to tear them up and start over in a different way. It is a favorable time to ferret out difficulties in your relationships, lay them out in the daylight and work to find positive resolutions.
Leo: Attention centers around home, family, security and property. You have an interest in clean-up and fix-up. It helps you feel more organized and grounded. One family member is disturbing your sense of peace. She is probably an intensely emotional female who periodically stirs the pot and makes a brew.
Virgo: Your planetary ruler, Mercury, is involved with both Neptune and Mars. On the high side you may feel inspired and desire to make others happy in some way. The negative side of this arrangement could cause your mind to feel both irritated and foggy at the same time. Use caution with any type of tools or machinery at this time.
Libra: This is not a time to make purchases of luxury. If anything, it is a time to spend your money wisely and with long-term outcomes in mind. What will you be glad you bought now when it is four or five years down the road? The arenas of love and romance are in a bad patch for the present. Wait it out. Don’t panic.
Sagittarius: If you have been channeling your energy into a project that has positive value for many, you may be receiving recognition and applause now. Others are recognizing the value of your efforts. For many, this time frame represents improvements in a job situation or beneficial changes in job conditions.
Capricorn: At last! The sun shines through the clouds in your life. You may become the leader in a project that will be good for many. Love life appears or perhaps it improves and you are enjoying your roles in life. This is a time in which you may realize that your struggles have been worth the effort.
Aquarius: This is a good week to tackle projects that require tools and/or muscle. Partners or special friends are willing to offer an assist if needed. Your mind as well as your reflexes are steady and reliable at this time. Relationships are not exciting, but they are supportive.
Pisces: In the larger scheme of things, you have arrived at a point of accomplishment. You have communicated your philosophy in a way that others are changed. However, in the microcosmic view, you are encountering others who want to quarrel and disparage your opinions. Focus on the higher intent, that which you felt “called” to present.
