OCTOBER 2019 91
DAY-BY-DAY FORECAST FOR SAGITTARIUS
1st Tues.—You chafe against restrictions, Sagittarius.
Even if you’re tied down in private quarters, opportunity
knocks to help you get out and about. Bye for now.
2nd Wed.—Taking care of business keeps you busy, and
higher-ups expect strict attention to detail. Working in
tandem with someone gets the best results.
3rd Thurs.—Mars enters Libra, your house of communi-
ty projects, friendship, clubs, groups, and aspirations (the
11th). Dissension lurks here; keep the peace if possible.
4th Fri.—Disagreements with colleagues about money
are contentious at first, but further discussion builds
bridges of cooperation. Group efforts have a positive
outcome.
5th Sat.—Budgets need paring down to the last dollar
and cent for optimum planning. Others will argue you’re
being penny wise and pound foolish, but hold your
ground.
6th Sun.—A little give and take here makes bitter medi-
cine go down more easily, especially in financial matters.
Fair play extends to superfluous purchases; take heed.
7th Mon.—Mercury in Scorpio opposes Uranus retro-
grade in Taurus, bringing sudden news about a health or
staff issue that stirs the pot. Hasty decisions here need
curbing.
8th Tues.—Venus enters Scorpio, your house of recu-
peration, charity, subterfuge, and destructive habits
(the 12th). Running damage control here depletes your
resources.
9th Wed.—A family member is supportive of your actions
and decisions. Sampling a new cuisine or a dietary trend
increases similarities; furry friends display their devotion.
10th Thurs.—A private discussion about an elder sheds
new light on an old problem. Preserving traditions
requires a sacrifice; you’re on board, and will see it
through.
11th Fri.—A household or real estate issue is taking way
too much time, but it’s reparable with some expense.
Excess comes into focus, less becomes more later on.
12th Sat.—Venus in Scorpio opposes Uranus retrograde
in Taurus, creating instant attraction and repulsion
among hired help and in medical matters. Pets make
friends.
13th Sun.—The Full Moon in Aries lights up the house
of recreation, romance, risk, kids, and entertainment (the
5th). Cupid strikes instantly and winners take all.
14th Mon.—The Sun in Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn,
creating shifts of power in groups and among col-
leagues. Worthy causes get a work-over, as will some
friendships.
15th Tues.—A heartfelt dialogue about family members,
living arrangements, and domestic decor has a beneficial
impact going forward. Speaking up works wonders.
16th Wed.—Clever ways of economizing are on the
table, especially about health issues, shopping for sup-
plies, and household maintenance. Get the best value for
your money.
17th Thurs.—Your significant other is out and about
and won’t be tied down. An upbeat atmosphere among
colleagues increases good times and generates litigious
discussions.
18th Fri.—Doublespeak is in the air, but your arrows
of truth pierce through the circuitry and get right to the
heart of the matter. Facts may be distorted or omitted.
19th Sat.—Mercury in Scorpio sextiles Pluto in Capricorn,
giving you a chance to manipulate finances in private.
The outcome brings satisfaction for all participants.
20th Sun.—Cupid arrives unannounced and in scenarios
that are off the beaten path. Instant attractions can lead
to something more if you’re inclined to do follow-up.
21st Mon.—Venus in Scorpio trines Neptune retrograde
in Pisces, underscoring yesterday’s romantic appeal.
Music and imagination move the conversation forward.
22nd Tues.—Cross-cultural and media interests lure
you, and you’ll indulge in comparing and contrasting
opinions and points of view. Strong egos take center
stage.
23rd Wed.—Harsh words are exchanged behind the
scenes, and bosses are back to keeping you busy, focused,
and productive. Your mastery of job skills manifests.
24th Thurs.—Household commitments get short shrift
when stacked against professional responsibilities. Deep
concentration contrasts with benign negligence.
25th Fri.—Venus in Scorpio sextiles Pluto in Capricorn,
pulling your passions and priorities into proper alignment.
Now roll up your sleeves and implement them.
26th Sat.—Group dynamics become a talkfest for
determining right and wrong, yes and no, or deciding
whether to make changes or keep everything status quo.
Logic prevails.
27th Sun.—The New Moon in Scorpio stimulates the
house of solitude, convalescence, an privacy. You look for
a new start, but need to think it out for yourself.
28th Mon.—Elders and family ties come into focus,
along with decisions concerning long term well-being
and the finances to maintain it. Clever solutions rise to
the surface.
29th Tues.—Passion sizzles behind closed doors, and
despite your outspoken demeanor you’ll see wisdom in
cultivating privacy. Information goes underground; keep
it there.
30th Wed.—Yesterday’s confidential communications
may already have begun springing a leak. Shore up
emails, texts, and comments on social media. Just keep
mum.
31st Thurs.—Mercury stations retrograde in Scorpio,
your house of charity, subterfuge, rehabilitation, and
seclusion (the 12th). Secret-keeping is successful; don’t
rock the boat.
