Your Horoscope: Week of Sept. 8-14, 2010

By Denise Guzzardo

This Week: I have never been so grateful to see Mercury go direct than I will be on this day, Sept. 12. This has been one of the worst ones I have personally ever experienced as well as my beloved clients. Now, mind you, on that day it can be just as destructive as it is coming in, so take care and be extra cautious with travel, communications, children, pets and the oldest form of transportation, the horse. Keep a watchful eye on those who are smaller and weaker than you. Mind your tongue at this time as well. You don’t want to say something you will regret in the long run. Take care.

Aries (March 21 to April 19)—An opportunity for self-employed or self-contracted work will arrive this month. Be open and receptive to this situation in the near future. Even if this is already in the works, you may find an additional outlet through the end of this year. Your romantic opportunities are endless this next year. Pick and choose carefully.

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)—Your ability to see the other side of the story is more evident now than ever. Intuition is key. Pay close attention to your dreams. You’re receiving some valuable information. Use this to your best ability and to benefit others as well. Money may appear to be trickling in. Try not to let this worry you too much. You’re getting a break to rest to process your emotions. Take advantage of it.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)—It may be time to set the record straight. Misdirected anger is causing you tremendous amounts of problems. These aspects could continue after Mercury goes direct, if you don’t correct them now. Lay the law down with a pushy sibling or relative, and set some boundaries. It’s time to make a wrong right.

Cancer (June 21 to July 22)—You have found yourself the center of attention all of a sudden and don’t know quite what to do with it. The month of August has definitely tested your patience and left you wondering, “What’s in it for me?” Expect some unexpected pleasures to roll in around the new year. Home and property are a focus this week. In October, you find the right fit.

Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22)—If you have closed yourself off to the rest of the world, it may be time to break free of all of those behavior patterns. Now you can see just how ridiculous this situation is and how it will never be enough. This month provides you with all of your career aspects in order. A female is instrumental with positive changes. You can call your own shots at this time.

Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)—Now that you have your eyes wide open, you can proceed with caution in the near future. You will not be a slave to those who have no regard for your physical or emotional well-being. Count to 10, and then clarify what’s going on with you and others. You’re making a major shift, and this could be quite a nail-biter. Remember, your opinion is valued by others.

Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)—In August, there has been a tremendous focus on “money.” This has been a test to check how materialistic you could become or have become. Many of life’s simple pleasures do not revolve around cash flow. If you were able to get through this without putting a dollar sign on everything, you will have an extremely prosperous 2011. If you’ve been “keeping up with the Joneses,” you may have some setbacks next year. Pay close attention to your thought process at this time.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)—Oh, it may feel like you’re kicking everyone to the curb, but you’re really just clearing away all kinds of unwanted shallow chatter. The loved ones who matter the most will see this and make things right for you. The ones who don’t just make room for more positive individuals around you. Money is an important factor this month. You have learned to respect it, and it will definitely respect you in the coming months.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)—Even though it may appear the weight of the world is on your shoulders, that is no reason to allow another’s criticism to affect your daily routine. Sometimes it appears others want to kick you when you’re down. Stand up and fight for your rights now. You’re entitled to a little respect in the midst of all of this heartache. Finances will not be a problem in the very near future. It is then, and only then, that the tables will turn in your favor.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)—New plans and new ideas that have been swimming around in your head will take shape and form in early October. It is worth it to take a leap of faith and allow things to unfold as they should. October is a “record month,” and it appears you’re starting the month out right. This is a time when you are making the right connections.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)—You will find this is a time to clear the air with old emotional ties. Try to do this in the most diplomatic way possible. Be cautious with flippant remarks toward those who have been supportive in regard to you and your business ventures. You may find yourself on the outside looking in.

Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20)—Changes with work or your financial picture are a focus this coming month. Clear away any old karmic debt, and watch how the universe will bless you. You need to look forward to a “brand-new day.” Focus on the positive and avoid thoughts of those from your past. It just gets in your way.
