October's Horoscopes

As October begins, the Sun will be travelling through Libra, along with Mercury and then for the last week in the month, the Sun will be in Scorpio. Venus will be in Scorpio throughout the month, Mercury will enter Scorpio around the 11th and Jupiter too is in the eighth sign of the zodiac. The following forecasts are for October for all the signs.

Aries (March 21 to April 20) Your partner or a close friend could get moody when touchy topics are brought up. You need to watch what you say to avoid emotional scenes. In money matters or any legal business you're caught up in, think of yourself and stop trying to please everyone else so much.

Taurus (April 21 to May 21) You've always known the benefits of regular exercise and you might decide it is time to take new health and exercise routines more seriously. Positive thinking will also help a small medical problem. Then towards the end of October you might see a change to help a friend advance their aims.

Gemini (May 22 to June 21) For some, a new romance seems to open up all sorts of wonderful possibilities for the future. The start of October is a great time for creative ventures, writing and art. A project or venture which you've recently had difficulties with, now seems to be proceeding well. Changes in your working life will be changes for the better as October ends. Even if they don't seem very positive at first.

Cancer (June 22 to July 23) You need to be diplomatic in your family relationships, especially if you find you aren't getting on well with someone you see regularly. Keep your thoughts to yourself when it comes to domestic matters early in the month. Your patience will eventually be rewarded. The end of October is a great time to get out and party.

Leo (July 24 to August 23) Conversations between friends, family and loved-ones will be meaningful. Listen to what others say before telling them what you're thinking. You could learn a lot by paying attention to debates going on around you. Short trips are likely to include errands, delivering messages and fulfilling promises. Family matters grab your attention as the month comes to an end. Be tactful when dealing with in-laws.

Virgo (August 24 to September 23) You don't have to spend vast amounts on having fun. Keep an eye on your spending during the first half of October. New opportunities seem perfect for you as the month ends. Mentally, you're active and your mind is working overtime.

Libra (September 24 to October 23) Be adventurous while the Sun is in your sign. Even if your instincts take you away from the familiar and down new paths, this could be an experience that was meant to be. Trust your intuition. Be willing to experiment with new ideas. Money is a big consideration no matter what you're doing as the month ends once the Sun moves into Scorpio.

Scorpio (October 24 to November 22) Someone needs advice on a private matter or you could do with getting something off your chest. Either way, find time to talk things through during the first half of the month. Later you will feel more certain about plans you intend to put into the action very soon.

Sagittarius (November 23 to December 21) Friendship activities will take up a good percentage of your time during the first half of October. Eventually you will realize the need to reduce social commitments but they will have been fun, while they lasted. Private matters grab your attention toward the end of the month. Although there will be changes these could be a big improvement on what had originally been intended.

Capricorn (December 22 to January 20) In business, take the initiative. Don't hold back from doing what you feel is right. Personally and professionally you will be showing the more assertive side of your nature. As October ends, the chance to add sparkle to relationships should not be overlooked.

Aquarius (January 21 to February 19) Travel and long journeys are accentuated now; a change of scene will be a delight. This gives you the chance too, to think about your future as your mood is serious as October ends and you will be focused on your professional goals.

Pisces (February 20 to March 20) A friend might put an interesting proposal to you; if you're being expected to invest in a new scheme, look into this very carefully. Take your time about anything new you take on. Travel appeals and you might persuade a close friend or someone in the family to book a holiday soon.

For all the signs the Sun in Libra will encourage balance, fairness and harmony in all relationships.
