Daily Horoscope for Thursday, October 9, 2014

Moon Alert

After 8 AM EDT today, we have the "all clear" today to do business (whether $10 or $10 million) and make important decisions. The Moon is in Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Glory hallelujah! You have survived the Full Moon in your sign, which won't happen for another year. Thankfully, the pressure is off and today is an easier day. You might be tempted to make elegant purchases. (Whatever soothes the soul.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

The Moon is in your sign today, which brings you a small advantage in all your dealings with others. Things will tend to go your way. Once a month, for two days, the Moon is in your sign and when this occurs it's good to ask the universe for a favour. Why not?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You are in touch with your Muse now, which is why this is a good time for creative projects. Enjoy arts and crafts and the creative efforts of others. Sports events, fun activities with children, movies, the theatre and romantic flirtations will appeal today. Have fun!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You will enjoy talking to a female colleague today because feelings of mutual sympathy abound. The give-and-take in the conversation will be warm and friendly. This person might inspire you to reach for your goals. At the least, they will be sympathetic to you.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Personal secrets, perhaps related to your financial scene (debt, shared property or inheritances) might be public today. However, what is also evident to others is your sympathetic nature and desire to help those who are in need. Bravo!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Do something to satisfy your wanderlust today. You want to get away from all this. If you can't travel somewhere, perhaps you can slip away for High Tea in civilized surroundings. You need to pamper your imagination by pampering yourself.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your concern for those who are less fortunate than you is evident today. Because of this, you might do fundraising or encourage others to step up to the plate and contribute to a worthy cause. Give yourself the joy of being generous to someone.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Discussions with partners will be mutually sympathetic today, which is why this is a good day to put your cards on the table and air your grievances. If you speak softly in measured tones, in a matter-of-fact style, others will not take it personally. One hopes.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A coworker might need your help today or vice versa you might enlist the help of someone yourself. Whatever the case, you'll find it easy to get along with others on the job because everyone is relieved to have survived yesterday's Full Moon.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Do something playful or creative today! The intense experiences of the last two days are behind you now. Why not take a breather? Grab a matinee or a long lunch. Enjoy a romantic getaway, playful times with children or sports events. You deserve it!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This is an excellent day for family discussions, especially with a female family member. People are willing to listen and be patient with each other. Feelings of mutual sympathy exist, which, in turn, allow each side to open up to tiny confessions. ("I did it.")

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might spend time daydreaming today because it's that kinda day. Don't worry. We all need a mental health day now and then. The upside of this celestial influence is that your imagination is heightened. You can visualize your dreams, which might be helpful in your line of work - who knows?

If Your Birthday Is Today

Music icon John Lennon (1940-1980) shares your birthday today. Your intuition and assessment of things going on around you is excellent. People want to know your views and are often magnetized to you. Good news! This is a year of accumulation, and perhaps one of the most powerful years of your life. You will reap what you have sown because it's a time of fruition and a good time to buy and sell.
