A lunar conjunction to Uranus in the sign of money brings a lucky equinox surprise. The sun and Pluto form just the profound trine to help us make meaning of it. So here's to Mabon, the merry harvest feast! May your heart be as full as the autumn baskets, overflowing with the season's bounty. Dance like leaves on the wind. Celebrate the golden hours of day. Welcome the cozy robe of night. Here's to balance in the season of Libra!
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Relationships trend toward smooth sailing. This week, you'll share yourself more consciously. Think of love in terms of its actions. What is it exactly that you do to deliver a certain quality of attention in a way that only you can? Being aware of your style of giving and preferences for receiving will make for stronger relationships.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You know what the right thing to do is, but you're not sure exactly why it's the right thing. It seems this knowledge is somehow bone-level, an instinct that integrates your body, mind and spirit, and aligns the whole of you in a particular direction. As you go where you're drawn, new talents will be activated in you.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A commitment to excellence involves a rejection of perfection. To be excellent, you must produce. To produce, you must send the work that's "good enough" instead of holding back in fear it's not the best. What you present to the world is a reflection of your skills, vision and current level of knowledge — three things that are forever evolving.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The love advisers warn against falling in love with a person's potential. But what if you just want to be there to help it blossom? There's a delicate balance between supporting someone's growth and losing yourself in the idea of who they could become. This week reminds you that people need to grow for themselves, not just for you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You're curating your life. You're narrowing down the options to make space for what genuinely excites and fulfills you. Every experience brings you closer to understanding what you really want and need. So even if you wouldn't do it again, celebrate yourself for doing it at all.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your charm is working round the clock this week and you couldn't even turn it off if you wanted to. Because of this, moments to yourself will be rarer. You'll have to carve them out and take precautions so people don't interrupt you. You'll be collecting compliments and the perks of being popular. This is well earned — it's simply your turn.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A few projects will converge and click together in such a way as to activate your imagination. It will wrap around dim situations and light them up with possibility, delve into problems and transform them into opportunities. With this kind of creativity churning in you, every day brings some sort of unexpected mini-adventure.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). To be an others-centered person is a quiet goal of yours, and a noble one. You feel the most connected to your experiences when you know you're helping people and lifting the energy. This week, you'll lose track of time, work, yourself and more for the sake of making others feel comfortable, respected and tended to.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). No one starts an endeavor hoping to get to a result that's "not bad." This week, great expectations might be more aptly called uninformed expectations. Luckily, you're adaptable, and experience will show you just what to adjust. Because you are game for the adventure, Jupiter douses you in good luck.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). To project your relationship hopes and dreams onto another is a normal stage of relationships, having the effect of bonding people in infatuation. To move through this and into the healthy business of learning who a person actually is (as opposed to who we want them to be) is to head into the love zone.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Keep experimenting. Stop after each one to assess the experience. Those moments of reflection are key to your experience. Each step, even the ones that lead you away from the goal, represents progress. Sometimes it's the step backward that gives you winning momentum to push ahead.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll set your sights on a small, achievable goal. This could be the challenge that leads to something bigger, or it could be the experiment that helps you know what's absolutely not a good fit for you. Either way, you win by trying something a little different this week.
THIS WEEK'S BIRTHDAYS: This year brings a "yes" phase where you explore widely and a "no" phase where you turn down everything else to focus on making the most of a great opportunity. The big treasures that keep your year gleaming will be a keen and intuitive navigation of cycles, a talent for reading the room, and a few beautiful, supportive relationships. More highlights: There will be high action with a race. You'll be gearing up to compete with the help of experts. Also, a tricky but lucrative investment that pays off in five years.
