Horoscopes
Aries
You are really connecting with your desire to produce, organize, and serve these days, dear Aries, and you’re also becoming more deeply aware of a need for order. Your nature is passionate, and today, you find it easy to gravitate towards activities that improve your life in small ways. Whether you’re organizing your work or home, spending quality time with family, or researching a recent idea, you’re likely to feel pleasantly stimulated and motivated. You’re likely to feel refreshed from the inside out now, particularly as you feel you’re naturally moving towards the things you truly love and need.
Taurus
There tends to be a natural gravitational pull towards relationships and partnerships today, dear Taurus. There is easy, comfortable, and comforting energy for relating, creating, playing, and sharing. You are conciliatory but not necessarily very decisive, and this short break from thinking too much can be welcome. Perhaps you’d prefer others’ input, and sharing this desire can be received as a pleasant gesture, subtly strengthening a bond. Whatever decisions you’re making today, they somehow seem better made with someone else!
Gemini
Research and analysis brings rewards today, dear Gemini. You can be productive on a home or family matter/project. Let the pace around you set yours today for best results, as this way you can feel more in tune with others and your intuition. Today, your actions and endeavors have a confident feel, largely because what you are doing matches with what you are feeling. It’s a good time to put something into order, whether it’s a desk drawer, paper work, or a closet. Be sure it doesn’t become overwhelming, and you’ll feel the satisfaction of doing something productive and uncluttering your own mind by extension.
Cancer
You can be drawn to communications projects or learning endeavors today, dear Cancer, as you have a stronger sense of purpose and vision these days and you’re enthusiastic about pursuing recent ideas. This is a day for an easy flow of creativity and pleasing communications. The creator and entertainer in you are stimulated today making it a strong time for creative endeavors, socializing, attending a social gathering, and so forth. It’s easy to connect with like-minded individuals, to express yourself, and to come off the way you intend. Your actions and your emotions are in harmony right now, and this helps you across the board.
Leo
This is a good day for comfortably working on any recent money-making or business project at a gentle pace, dear Leo. You are likely to feel less pressure or stress today, and this suits you just fine. It’s also strong for connecting with family or those people who are so close to you that you feel they are much like family. This is an excellent day for enjoying the comfort of familiar surroundings, sharing memories, and reminiscing about the past. It’s a strong time for relaxing, enjoying, and taking in, but keeping moderately busy will help you to feel most satisfied.
Virgo
You might like nothing better to do than to dabble in your personal interests, make connections, and take in or share various bits of information today, dear Virgo. It’s a good time for doing so as the day’s energies contain little in the way of blocks, and healthy, easy interactions are likely now. It may not be the most productive of days, but it doesn’t have to be to satisfy. You can be very effective at communicating support, both directly and indirectly. Others can be especially attracted to your manner of expressing yourself today.
Libra
There can be a good, solid feeling to much of the day, dear Libra. You are more inclined than usual to focus on the here and now. Confidence in your ability to get things done, to make a living, and to take good care of yourself and others is with you. Your attention is likely to turn to more practical matters, making it a good time for washing the car, balancing your bank book, and other such activities. Otherwise, anything that reinforces your connection to the “here and now” is appropriate today, even if it’s a lazy activity! Feeling confident that what you already have is what you need can help you to give your best in coming days.
Scorpio
Emotional energy runs very high today, dear Scorpio, and this makes you more vibrant and noticeable. Even so, it’s a strong day for work and problem solving that doesn’t require high levels of emotions, but the energy can serve as motivation to tackle a big project or refine one that you’ve already set into motion. The Moon is in your sign all day and forms easy aspects with a number of planets in communications and relationship sectors. This points to a day in which you can pretty much set the pace and find satisfying outlets for self-expression, particularly through writing, speaking, sharing, and connecting.
Sagittarius
With the Moon in Scorpio, the sign just before yours, dear Sagittarius, it’s a time for natural withdrawal on some level — a time to reflect upon, and digest, recent events. Nevertheless, you can make some progress in business and practical affairs. You simply need a break from situations that drain you emotionally as you rebuild energy on an emotional level. This will help you to take better advantage of the upcoming Moon transit of your sign beginning the morning of the 16th. Look for opportunities for some high quality unwinding and letting go. Because it’s an uninhibited Moon, you’re more likely to get the rest and relaxation you need. New insight into old problems can come to you in this state.
Capricorn
Writing, publishing, and educational matters can swim along nicely today, dear Capricorn. The Moon harmonizes with a number of planets today, and they spotlight sectors of your chart that rule communications and relationships. This suggests a pleasing tone to your conversations and social interactions. This easy energy is not necessarily motivating, but it can help you to feel supported and content. Whether you simply enjoy it or take advantage of it, this spirit of cooperation and acceptance is welcome. Sharing ideas and personal philosophies might help bond you with others today.
Aquarius
It’s back to business now, dear Aquarius. The lunar cycle emphasizes responsibilities, competency, and duty. Whether you want to be noticed or not, you’re receiving attention. You can be pleasantly productive today, and a stronger sense of purpose and direction is building. This is a good time for looking for work, thinking up new ideas, drawing up plans for career or life direction, and filling your responsibilities. You have a rather competent air about you, and others are likely to take note, if not turn to you as an authority on a matter.
Pisces
As a Pisces, you fully enjoy the concept of going with the flow, and today you are likely to enjoy just that. Smooth energy is with you for enjoying favorite pastimes with minimal interference. Responsibilities are handled with more ease than usual. There could be especially open and hopeful conversations that help you get closer to a partner or special someone, although new levels of understanding can also open up on nonverbal levels as well. You are gentle and know the value of diplomacy quite naturally, and today you can be a little more assertive than usual without upsetting anyone. Grab any opportunity that arises now that pulls you out of your usual routine and adds a dash of adventure to your life.

Event: Tr-Tr Sun Cpl Ven
Description: Transiting Sun ContraParallel Transiting Venus
VIRGO STRONG
Meticulous, discriminating, pure, practical, health conscious, hard working. Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic.
LIBRA STRONG
Even-handed, harmonious, artistic, diplomatic, balancing, strong sense of fairness. Can be over- compromising, appeasing, judgmental.
SCORPIO STRONG
Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic.
BALANCE OF ELEMENTS
FIRE WEAK
We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.
BALANCE OF MODES
The modes are balanced.
LUNAR PHASE: NEW MOON
Moon 0 to 45 degrees ahead of the Sun.
This is an energetic, impulsive, and subjective period of time. We are looking for new projects and opportunities.
The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on October 14th:
Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
