OCTOBER 2019 87
DAY-BY-DAY FORECAST FOR LIBRA
1st Tues.—You walk the middle line, Libra. Maintaining
traditions while welcoming progressive trends highlights
your impartial viewpoint. Finances are allocated fairly.
2nd Wed.—Transactions are best held behind closed
doors, away from prying eyes and quizzical comments.
Outspoken remarks give credence to your sense of fair
play.
3rd Thurs.—Pluto stations direct in Capricorn, your
house of family roots, real estate, and your home (the
4th). A turn of events here will require changes ahead.
4th Fri.—Open dialogues with elders and other family
members shed new light on an old issue. Insurance
policies and other expenses are impacted, but you’ll
reconcile it all.
5th Sat.—You’re back to traditions, generational traits,
and legacies. Housing issues keep you rooted to the
spot despite inconvenience. Parenting roles take center
stage.
6th Sun.—Financial ramifications arise from yesterday’s
scenario, and you’ll adjudicate them with your usual
aplomb. Settlements, credit, and loans come into play.
7th Mon.—Mercury in Scorpio opposes Uranus retro-
grade in Taurus, sending you into a balancing act with
incoming and outgoing expenses. The bottom line is
elusive at best.
8th Tues.—Venus enters Scorpio, the house of your
assets and income (the 2nd). Your money is mixed up
with others’; you have to sort it out. Things get lost in
the shuffle.
9th Wed.—Economizing on household staples and
everyday expenses frees up cash along with options.
Eliminating frills encourages some improvisation.
10th Thurs.—Open communication lines with hired help
and medical personnel streamline your many tasks. The
bulk of household management is yours.
11th Fri.—Language barriers allow the finer points to
slip through the cracks, but the facts come through.
Making minor sacrifices is helpful in your daily routine.
12th Sat.—Venus in Scorpio opposes Uranus retrograde
in Taurus, throwing a monkey wrench into your monetary

of competition, confrontation, and relationships (the 7th).

on it.

presenting hurdles in finances, family matters, and real

payments.
15th Tues.—Mercury in Scorpio trines Neptune retro-
grade in Pisces, putting your intuition to work on hiring
help, medical matters, and tuning into furry friends.
16th Wed.—An element of secrecy may be required
regarding a sensitive family issue. Discussing it privately
later this evening confirms whether or not to make it
public.

you go seeing both sides of the situation and weighing all
the pros and cons. Soon a verdict appears, and all is well.

inclining you to spend on upgrading your home. Family
dynamics are improved by discussing taboo topics.

cash flow (the 2nd). Monies merge, creating opportuni-
ties that would otherwise be missed. Loans and debts
accrue.

minor medical problems and regain your precious equi-
librium. Elders need discretion and you’ll pave the way
for it.

help you get to the root of a problem about a malady, staff
issues, and job skills. Solutions appear serendipitously.
