What is Happening in the Stars for the Week of October 23-29, 2016?

Aries

The focus this week moves to conversations over shared resources and the influence other people’s values are having on your decisions. This can be a very positive time if you are willing to take a step back and trust your intuition, rather than charging full speed ahead. Impulsive choices and actions, especially if you are feeling angry or resentful, can lead to additional problems at a time when you should be seeking compromise solutions. Be especially patient if issues arise on the job or dealing with people in positions of authority. Women in your life can be a wonderful source of support and helpful feedback. A focus on what you value can help open doors of possibility.

Taurus
If you have been meaning to have a heart to heart talk with a partner or over a legal concern, now is the time. Feedback from others will be feisty but also quite compassionate and insightful: if you are open to what comes your way. This is a powerful time to take practical steps to further your education or make plans to travel in support of your ambitions. Don’t be afraid to take change of your life in pursuit of a higher ideal. This continues to be a positive time to focus on improving your health. This can be especially satisfying if you can find a partner or interest group to share the effort and encourage your development. This is a positive week to rework a family budget to better suit everyone’s needs.

Gemini
Your feedback from others will be a source of growing satisfaction and often good advice. This is an ideal time to consult mentors or trusted advisors. Legal matters can be successfully negotiated and resolved.  This also works on a personal level. Conversations about what is important to you and a partner can help you both create a more workable structure for the relationship. If you are not in a relationship get moving! This is a terrific time to get more involved socially and meet new people. Do what you can to finish any ongoing project. Research on health matters or even a visit to a health practitioner can help you feel more in control of your life.

Cancer
You have just entered a month long period that brings a great deal of happiness around children, love affairs, or simply doing more of the things you most enjoy.  Expansive plans around the house or even a trip to visit family can be especially satisfying. There can be power struggles with women in your life, or a partner who may be violently opposed to your interests. Challenges of this sort will be especially strong for those born near July 14. Protect your health and don’t always put other people’s needs ahead of your own. Throughout the week, get as much done as possible on any current plan or project. Next week will bring a very supportive New Moon. The less you have on your plate at that time, the more effective you will be pursuing anything you would like to start. 

Leo
The energy moves to a stronger focus on managing shared resources around the house. This is a great time to do research or make a plan to better manage household expenses. There could be an unexpected conflict with an employee or someone you are providing services for.  It’s best to rely on the advice of a mentor or legal counselor rather than deal directly with anything that appears as a potential power struggle. Choose what works. This is a terrific time for a serious focus on creative projects, the needs of children, or a long term love affair. Look for ways to break with tradition and do something exciting that expands your horizons. It’s a fortunate week for taking a trip or making travel plans. Choose fun over obligation.

Virgo
The next few weeks offer you a window into both your own thought processes and the ways in which you communicate reflect deeper psychological truths. It’s important to talk about your feelings, even if they seem dark or difficult. Partners and mentors can be communicating on an intuitive or psychic level, so be especially sensitive to their moods. Less is more right now. This is a positive time to consolidate your resources with an eye to being able to have more fun in the future. Do your best to make your home more inviting, without extra expense. Children, sweethearts, or a creative interest can be a source of powerful, positive, and practical transformation.  Be open to any invitation to get out and have fun.

Libra
Emotionally you will be feeling more balanced and upbeat. Your sign has just entered a twelve-month period where you will find it easier than usual to find support and opportunities to be your best self. Be open to new friendships, helpful social contacts, and the growing support of people all around you. It’s an ideal time to travel or consider higher education. The energy this week is positive for in depth research. It encourages you to consider your habits and the way you manage your personal resources. Trust your intuition, your inner voice. Don’t let bossy or controlling people (including what you say to yourself about what you “should” do) block the flow of potential positive change. There could be some major confrontation concerning your home or an issue within the family. This may come when you least expect it. Partners and mentors will offer helpful suggestions.

Scorpio
Happy Birthday!  If your birthday is this week, you are likely to be the center of a great deal of positive and affectionate attention. Well deserved too! This can be an especially loving time where children and sweethearts are concerned. Music, poetry, and anything that inspires your creative imagination are ways to build special memories and share your love.  A financial matter that may have been troubling you will likely begin to ease. Perhaps you have learned to adapt to what first appeared to be limited circumstances. On second glance, there may be a great deal of value working with what you have. Issues of what is or is not fair have the potential to bring a major conflict out into the open. While this can be helpful in helping to clarify what you most value, it also can create a power struggle and hard feelings that are not easy to forget. Pick your battles carefully.

Sagittarius
There are some rays of hope amid the sense you are simply treading water. A serious and thoughtful attitude will open doors and attract unexpected interest and inspiring, creative ideas. There is a strong potential for making new friends or feeling more at home with a group who share your interests. Love is in the air if you are willing to reach out and take the lead. This is a great week to enjoy sports and games of all kinds. Avoid gambling; the potential for significant loss is quite real. There is the potential for an unexpected power struggle concerning your personal finances, or possibly your habits and pursuit of pleasure.  Keep valuables locked away, there is a slight potential for loss through theft or deception. Common sense precautions will see you through.

Capricorn
Surprising changes concerning home or family will demand extra flexibility on your part. On the job, opportunity goes to those who are willing to examine all sides and find a compromise solution.  Be sure you are getting enough sleep. A short holiday just to relax and unwind is recommended. Those born January 7-15 are likely to be feeling a good deal of stress.  Your own desire to take change and get things done is quite strong. This can make you overly domineering, or put you face to face with a situation or person that brings power issues to the forefront. If you avoid making conscious adjustments supporting personal transformation, life will force these adjustments on you. It’s best to be proactive, original, and yes, diplomatic.

Aquarius
Do your best to be self-aware, especially where automatic reactions or judgments to people or situations are in the mix. This remains a period where unconscious acts, often out of a desire to be in control, can create more trouble than you anticipate.  It’s a very positive period for collaborations concerning travel, marketing, higher education, publishing, or anything else that expands your horizons. You can shine being part of any team presentation.  Teamwork and a willingness to do the practical work necessary to bring a vision for the future into reality are the slow steps necessary for future success. The January born are likely to see their ideas challenged by superiors or when trying to make a good impression on the job. Do your homework and be sensitive to the emotional tenor of the room. 

Pisces
This is a lucky time for making contacts with old friends far away. You may find they have some good ideas that will help shake you out of places where you may feel stuck.  A major challenge around future plans or a friend to prove to be surprisingly controlling can create all sorts of unanticipated stress and challenge as the week progresses. You might even break with a friend or organization that no longer supports your habits, values, or financial interests. It may be difficult to be diplomatic and compromising around issues of shared resources or a relationship issue with a lover, but to the degree you can, things will tend to move in your favor. This is a lucky time for the February born to travel or make long distance contacts. Research on academic subjects is also favored.
