Horoscope for the week beginning Sept. 30
By Michael O’Connor
Tip of the week
The big news now as September comes to a close is the New Moon in Libra. What is special about it is that it is the first of 13 Lunation Cycles with Jupiter in Libra. The overlap of cycles includes planets entering new signs, which constitutes its own cycle and then the most basic building block upon which all other cycles actually find their place is that of the Moon. The Moon’s cycle can be regarded as symbolizing the bricks in the wall. In light of the building as a whole, the bricks are rather the small end, but without them, there would not be a building.
What is also significant is the fact that October is a one-month. This is especially true in a nine-year. It indicates many new beginnings and an optimal time in general for taking new initiatives. It can also be recognized to be something of a sneak preview month for the upcoming year. Since 2017 is a one-year, we can expect it to usher in many important turns and changes in the world.
Pluto turning direct in Capricorn on September 26 and Mars entering Capricorn on the 27th is noteworthy as well. The two ruling planets for Scorpio, yes the sign of power is quite complex, in the same sign brings extra emphasis to the sign they are in and Capricorn is symbolic of existing ruling structures and the status quo. So, we can expect some big power ploys and plenty of moving and shaking over the next couple of months. Of course, this time frame coincides with the U.S. Presidential Election.

Sept. 30 – Oct. 6
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
How are you handling all the waves of passion that have been stirring your loins lately? Hopefully, it feels good to be alive and specifically, in the body. The push now is for the next level of power and achievement in your life. With this increase in desire and determination comes drive and discipline.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)
The beauty of balance is something most people appreciate. It is especially satisfying when it is linked to health. To achieve this, the balance point needs to be directed to your daily routine. This constitutes your next. If you can associate pleasure to a routine that produces real results you could undergo some big positive changes.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Entertainment and beauty are close allies and hopefully both are in close association with you now. You really want to see and feel the results of your efforts in a big way. Giving to the situation more than you might feel like even is essential. Fortunately, your ambition levels have increased of late to support your cause.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
Creating a new state of harmony and balance in your world continues. In some respects, you have dug deeper than you might have thought. Supported by original, creative designs, you may even be surprised by the results. As long as your efforts are manifesting as investments and not just expenses, you are content.
Leo (July 22 – Aug 23)
Your mental focus is light, cerebral and intellectual. Yet emotionally, you have been reaching deeply perhaps even into reaches not felt before. You yearn to merge with significant other(s) soulfully and probably in heart and body too. How can you have a balance of both? By working it, that‘s how.
Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
Somehow you want more; more knowledge, power, influence, recognition and prosperity. To achieve your objectives you know that you need to devise a new plan and implement a better strategy. Inspiration to play with the possibilities is present. Yet, it is not simply a question of working harder. It may be time for some reinvention.
Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)
An intellectual adventure has begun. You are in the mood to both expand your horizons and get to the bottom of things. Study and research is featured. You are spurred on by an ambitious drive. This momentum will continue for a few weeks and will deepen as well. You just might get a lot done and save money too.
Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)
You are in the mood to step further behind the scenes even than usual. This cycle will last a few weeks. It may just amount to lying a little lower than usual. Taking lovely naps during this period could prove extra beneficial. The prospect of doing so with someone you love is a source of excitement. But then, may not amount to recharging your batteries. Balance!
Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)
How far can you go? This is the question on your mind and may well include ‘…out of the box’. At least assertions of your sense of individuality are likely. These may come tightly bundled in a banner of democracy. It may feel like your turn to step forward and make proclamations and set examples regarding rights and freedoms.
Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)
Sometimes it is what you know; while at others it is who, like now. Mingling with the right people can have many benefits. You want to meet with significant others to share your ideas of creative possibility. You may have been in a bit of a cloud or so deeply engaged in a search for answers a short while ago. But now you are clear and ready.
Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)
Although your visions are wide and your sights are set to look far, you may be deep in a purging process as well. It is not simply a matter of clearing clutter, but it could include that. Deep cleaning, re-arranging furniture and anything else that will contribute to shifts in your habitual perspectives, are themes of synchronicity at play now.
Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
Your key contacts are especially important now. Desires to engage in rich exchanges and cultural expressions are strong. Yet, you need the support of others. You have entered something of a breakthrough period. Yet phase one of this process is making connections, phase two is showing up, and phase three is all about dynamic follow through.
