Following is a general overview of how the
planetary trends for October/November 2011 apply to each sun sign.
If you know your rising
sign (Ascendant), read that, too,
for additional insights.
Aries (March
20—April 19)
An abundance of enthusiasm and a willingness to
act on spur of the moment ideas or new information could quickly get
you in over your head with a creative project or activities suggested
by a partner or close associate in early October. Your challenge will
be to carefully consider the big picture, and the financial aspects
involved, before you leap headlong into a new venture. A period of
regeneration and renewal is at hand following the Scorpio new moon on
October 26th, during which you may benefit from discarding that which
is no longer necessary or has outlived its usefulness, whether
possessions, unfounded fears or doubts about your potential for worldly
success, or unhelpful emotional response patterns that inhibit your
growth and development. Seek to broaden your horizons and embrace new
possibilities.
Taurus (April
19—May 20)
For much of October, your energies will be focused
primarily around the home, where your attention to domestic needs will
be a high priority, necessitated by some radical changes, of a
generally positive nature, that may now be taking place. You have been
involved in a process of expanding your outlook on life for some time,
and now events are accelerating, enabling you to move forward with your
plans to transform your prospects for the future. A new cycle in the
growth and development of a key relationship begins in late October,
which continues throughout November, that allows you to build upon and
consolidate the progressive changes you have made. Consider carefully
what you presently wish to eliminate from your life, lest you discard
something of true value in your haste.
Gemini (May
20—June 21)
You're in an outgoing, exuberant frame of mind
these days, and keen to move forward with personal plans and projects.
Activities with friends or progressive groups that share your goals and
philosophies will be on your agenda now, and will likely consume a
great deal of your time and energy. Apply your creative ingenuity to
advancing your career or professional aspirations, as it may prove
challenging to sell your ideas to those who may be in a position to
help you climb the ladder, or that might fund a project dear to your
heart. A new work assignment is possible in November, though before you
accept, or apply, be sure that you're up to the task and have the
necessary skills, knowledge and confidence to carry it out
successfully.
Cancer (June
21—July 22)
The main thrust of your energies in October is
directed toward generating income, fuelled by a deeply felt need for a
greater sense of emotional and financial security. The recent new moon
in Libra (Sept 27th) in your solar fourth house provides a welcome
boost to your spirits, which may have been somewhat dampened for some
time now by Saturn's presence in this sensitive sector of your solar
chart. Indeed, a new cycle of emotional growth and development is now
underway, from which you can draw much inner strength, whilst the
support and encouragement of a significant other inspires you to move
beyond self-limiting beliefs, or the painful memory of love's labors
lost. Bring your innate creativity to bear on ways to broaden your
horizons, and to envision brighter prospects for the future.
Leo (July
22—Aug 22)
You're inclined to be more forceful in getting
your ideas across early in October, and are quite determined to have
things your way. However, neither your views nor your manner of
presenting them will be well received unless couched in a good measure
of tact and diplomacy. Indeed, your ideas and novel notions may be
quite progressive and considerably ahead of the curve, but in order to
"sell" them effectively—particularly if you're seeking
financial backing—you'll need to clarify the details, as well as
the big picture. There's a possibility of landing a lucrative new work
assignment in November which might also allow you to bring about a
positive transformation of your domestic environment, or perhaps move
to an altogether nicer home.
Virgo (Aug
22—Sept 22)
A new, favorable wind blows through your financial
affairs during October, bringing opportunities for monetary gain. Money
that was owed or was promised may now be forthcoming, or an investment
could finally pay dividends. Benefits might also come as a result of
your past good work or professional services. You may have a yearning
to emerge from the shadows and into the limelight in some way. Although
your best work now is likely to be conducted behind the scenes, before
this forecast period is over you could break new ground with at least
one new personal project that can move you forward along your chosen
career path. Communications and travel will increase, with the
possibility of a move for those with a yen to relocate.
Libra (Sept
22—Oct 22)
You're in your element in early October, as
several heavenly bodies currently transit through your sign. While this
year's new moon in Libra occurred on September 27th, its influence
carries over through most of this month, providing a much needed
energizing influence, infusing you with renewed enthusiasm, vigor, and,
yes, assertiveness. You may be keen to pursue new goals now, or to
reestablish contact with old friends, while activities with groups or
organizations who share your goals or interests will also have appeal.
An opportunity to add to your income is also possible now, one that
might allow you to draw upon your knowledge, wisdom and experience, to
share with others what you have learned.
Scorpio (Oct
22—Nov 21)
You're highly motivated to make at least some of
your dearest dreams come true in October, particularly in regard to
your worldly ambitions. Your sign's principal ruler, Pluto, located in
your solar third house for the past 2 - 3 years has been helping you to
identify and release thought patterns and notions about yourself that
are no longer relevant, that you've outgrown, which have gradually been
replaced with more positive and helpful affirmations and realizations
of what you're capable of achieving and now you're of a mind to make it
so. October's new moon (26th) in your sign and solar first house
increase your resolve to move forward with personal plans, replacing
doubt with courage and renewed enthusiasm to pursue what you now know
to be possible.
Sagittarius (Nov
21—Dec 21)
You feel more in control of your life and destiny
these days, and are keen to pursue personal goals with renewed vigor.
It's as thought you have discovered a new lease on life, that gives you
license to actively broaden your horizons. Friends and organizations
with which you are associated could provide the catalyst for some
progressive changes. Travel, too, can be rewarding, though in ways you
hadn't perhaps expected. You have also come to realize the value of
good health and diet, and may seek to improve your overall fitness. Be
sure to allow yourself adequate down time in order to recharge your
energies, and to reflect on and then assimilate the lessons and
experience you've gained over the course of the year so far.
Capricorn (Dec
21—Jan 20)
New professional opportunities are possible now,
and you're keen to explore your options. You sense the potential to
resume the pursuit of your worldly ambitions, which may have been
placed on hold of late. The inner restlessness you've been experiencing
can now be channeled into creative outlets, that brings the
satisfaction of tangible accomplishments. Your goals and aspirations
may now be subject to redefinition, as you seek to integrate new
possibilities into your plans for the future, and to accommodate new
priorities. Time spent with friends can be both enjoyable and
rewarding, while their wisdom and insight may help you solve a problem.
Aquarius (Jan
20—Feb 18)
Broadening your horizons is the theme that
underscores your life drama in October, when you feel that, indeed, all
the world is your stage, and you're keen to assume the leading role.
For some ambitious Aquarians this might entail going back to school to
learn a new skill, or to acquire the qualifications to help you climb
the ladder to worldly success and attainment. Others may wish to share
their knowledge, either through teaching, or via a book or blog.
Opportunity may knock in November with the chance to make a dream
career move. Confidence and enthusiasm are your long suits now, just
make sure that you're up to the task.
Pisces (Feb
18—March 20)
A time of renewal and regeneration is at hand in
October, when you're ready to put elements of the past behind you and
move on to pursue new personal and professional ambitions. It's
possible that any financial constraints you may have been under are now
quite suddenly removed, or that your values and priorities have
shifted, allowing for a more expansive outlook on the possibilities
before you. You're keen to assume a more active role in determining the
direction your future will take, and implement necessary changes that
will set you on your way. New horizons beckon, as your perspective on
life changes, and you're ready to set sail toward the new possibilities
that are coming into view.
