OCTOBER 2019 75
DAY-BY-DAY FORECAST FOR ARIES
1st Tues.—You need to be at the head of the line, Aries.
Stealth isn’t one of your usual tactics to get there, but
you’ll machinate to achieve your ends. Help comes from
behind.
2nd Wed.—A tedious task requires your full concen-
tration, but after it’s completed you’ll lighten up and
celebrate a job well done. Social introductions are
advantageous.
3rd Thurs.—Pluto stations direct in Capricorn, your
house of rank, status, authority figures, and career (the
10th). A changeover with a boss has a reverberating
impact.
4th Fri.—A simplified approach to messages and nego-
tiations prioritizes the facts and figures of a career
assignment. Keeping information under wraps is high
on the agenda.
5th Sat.—For better or worse you’ll learn a heavy les-
son from observing a boss’s calculated methodology. A
friendly social demeanor can mask ulterior motives.
6th Sun.—Moving money around and manipulating
people like chess pieces suits your purposes, and a
friendly exchange of favors makes the medicine go down
much easier.
7th Mon.—Mercury in Scorpio opposes Uranus retro-
grade in Taurus, bringing news that needs mental and
erbal processing. Financial problems require a quick fix.
8th Tues.—Venus enters Scorpio, the house of your
partner’s income, financial settlements, insurance, taxes,
and debts (the 8th). Transactions here will reverberate.
9th Wed.—Help comes from behind the scenes with
money problems, and minimum payments see you
through a rough patch. Credit card expenses and interest
accrue.
10th Thurs.—Reading between the lines shows you
how to move up the ladder at your place of employment.
Working alone you can accomplish the work of two
people.
11th Fri.—Big ideas take root and grow, and as soon
as you pare them down to more realistic goals you’re
already on a roll. A member of the top brass sees your
initiative.
12th Sat.—Venus in Scorpio opposes Uranus retrograde
in Taurus, requiring you and your significant other to
make a quick fix with finances. Money will be moved
around.
13th Sun.—The Full Moon in Aries shines, the house of
your appearance, outlook, and vitality (the 1st). Rugged
individualism pushes you to the front of the line. Well
done!
14th Mon.—The Sun in Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn,
presenting power plays that are executed with an iron
hand in a velvet glove. Subtle messages come on strong.
15th Tues.—Mercury in Scorpio trines Neptune retro-
grade in Pisces, setting your imagination free to wander
into the unknown. Enlightening dialogue inspires you.
16th Wed.—Listening to higher-ups gives you new
insight into managing your current finances and investing
future profits. You’ll get a second wind in the evening.
17th Thurs.—A chatterbox demands that you see two
or more sides of every topic that’s discussed. Agreement
isn’t the priority, it’s all about establishing the pros and
cons.
18th Fri.—Yesterday’s well-laid plans are met with dis-
illusion and dissent. Opinions and high-handed rhetoric
can make mincemeat of a strategy based on logic and
ethics.
19th Sat.—Mercury in Scorpio sextiles Pluto in
Capricorn, giving you a chance to probe a complicated
issue until you’ve found the information you’re seeking.
Put it to work.
20th Sun.—Venus in Scorpio sextiles Saturn in Capricorn,
presenting new ways to invest and save for future securi-
ty. A seasoned professional provides skilled assistance.
21st Mon.—Venus in Scorpio trines Neptune retrograde
in Pisces, making passion sizzle and burn. Subterfuge
and sacrifice may be part and parcel of a romantic tryst.
22nd Tues.—An athlete, performer, or artist enters as a
prospective love interest, but watch for ploys for manipu-
lation and control. Sophistication has a charm all its own.
23rd Wed.—Inflated feelings brush up against penetrat-
ing logic that adjusts your perspective. Mother Nature
provides her own guidelines for health maintenance.
24th Thurs.—Learning software or a new job skill, how-
ever minor, helps you further career options. Indigestion
and malaise sends you into private quarters to rest up.
25th Fri.—Venus in Scorpio sextiles Pluto in Capricorn,
merging romance with finance for all the right reasons.
Your eye is on the prize and a higher-up helps you attain
it.
26th Sat.—Opponents play a fair game and celebrate
with you afterward. Give and take with your partner
results in a compromise, but restrictions may come to
the forefront.
27th Sun.—The New Moon in Scorpio triggers the house
of the occult, your partner’s income, credit cards, loans,
and debts (the 8th). Monies merge and alter your course.
28th Mon.—Shifts occur in who holds the purse strings,
but creative budgeting helps you make ends meet. Minor
sacrifices are required from you and your other half.
29th Tues.—Financial priorities take center stage, and
so do discussions concerning them. Pooling resources
and setting guidelines frees up schedules and agendas.
30th Wed.—Mercury conjoins Venus in Scorpio, making
you think twice about unexplained things that go bump in
the night. Mysteries intrigue you.
