The Cosmic Connection
Rising sign horoscopes
for Oct. 9-15
♈ Aries: Your devotion to your work, health, and cherished relationships requires attention. Be real with yourself about being spread too thin, and pull back on things not ready for fruition.
♉ Taurus: Dedicate time for the creative force within you to take form. A daily practice that facilitates this process will be uplifting for your body, mind, and soul.
♊ Gemini: Perfecting your home and family situation is at odds with your professional life. Placing more value on that which brings you joy, satisfaction, and balance is most beneficial.
♋ Cancer: Sensitivity about your voice and your roots is stimulated. Communicating your feelings is of the utmost importance, regardless of how deep and complex the emotions run.
♌ Leo: The reality of entanglements that weigh you down rather than lift you up is revealed. Pruning is in order, and buoyancy in your attitude and perspective are the results.
♍ Virgo: Simplification and purification are stirring within you. Your needs may challenge relationships and shared resources. Take action now or forever hold your peace.
♎ Libra: The value of your solitude is underrated. Dreaming about and meditating on your hopes and personal goals can work wonders for your well-being and your future relationships.
♏ Scorpio: Shrinking social circles and commitments creates more space for dedication to your craft. More time with your muse and focusing on your health are imperative to inner balance.
♐ Sagittarius: Is your work aligned with your authenticity? If it is, dedicate efforts to greater alignment. If it isn’t, the pressure is on this week to make future plans for a better balance.
♑ Capricorn: Your relationship with your public image is shifting, and it’s directly related to who you are at your core. Lean into this dynamic and make the necessary adjustments required.
♒ Aquarius: A call to action to dig more deeply into your personal transformation is incoming. Being responsible for personal resources challenges surrendering intimate bonds with others.
♓ Pisces: Firmer boundaries are oftentimes required to focus on oneself. Take the time, space, and separation you need to re-center and process what’s surfacing within you.
Weekly astrology summary:
Face-offs between planets this week present opportunities to balance and confront difficulties in relationships, and to embrace the reality checks that surface. Some themes may feel like a revisitation. This is a final invitation to address what’s been ongoing, as the invitation won’t come again for many decades. Some themes may feel brand new, as the planetary dialogue is brand new for all of us alive at this time. Insightful, diplomatic, creative, and powerful lines of communication and breakthrough solutions are possible undertones. This is attributed to Venus’s shift into Libra and the end of Pluto’s retrograde journey on Oct. 13. The harmonious flow of the air element in the cosmos gifts us the intellectual power to seek negotiations, conversations, and resolutions to the challenges that build earlier in the week.
