Weekly Stars September 8th 2013

Virgo

Get a grip on money matters and see both sides of every question. Mercury, your ruler, rewards you for investing in ideas and a far-thinking strategy. Dress for success, think smart and luxurious, and you outwit a tricky customer who tries to play the system. Smooth over a sibling rivalry and focus on your common goals. Brotherly and sisterly love conspires in your success by Thursday and family business is here for the long-term. You are in in love with love, and Saturday brings somebody who shares your dream on a unspoken level.

Libra 

You are smart and curious and ask exactly the right questions. Bring friends in on a project and get some critical distance. Mercury, planet of intelligence, hits your sign and you have pride wrapped up in a special idea. A gift has the desired effect in love and Saturday brings an old-fashioned romantic experience.

Scorpio

You are at the work-face of your chosen field, piling on the hours and inching up the career ladder. Still, as velvety Venus enters your sign on Wednesday, an aura envelops you and brings respite after months of graft. Accept an invitation, even over pressures of work, and remind yourself what your ambitions are for.

Sagittarius

You take a leading role at last and look to far horizons. Your road is clear and you win respect for straight-talking in philosophic debate. Somebody seeks a behind-closed-doors liaison midweek and you are tempted to stray. Wednesday’s Sagittarius Moon keeps you above the fray and out of muddy romantic waters.

Capricorn

A green light goes on in your relationships and you see promise where before there were obstacles. Shared interest in travel and study binds you and you have an open discussion of the issues. A friend in need is a nuisance, but you get over it. Friday’s Capricorn Moon tips the scales your way and a bold request goes over well.

Aquarius

A touch of diplomacy singles you out at work and you overcome obstacles with friendliness. Venus, planet of love, sparks chemistry with your colleagues and you move to another level – if you wish. You are a PR genius and promote yourself smartly. Use your wits to win people round and a routine task goes smoothly when you think clearly.

Pisces

Somebody is in sympathy with your dreams and you bond as soul-mates. Venus, planet of romance chimes with your ruler Neptune and escapism is the order of the day. Shared love of music and painting unites you on Saturday and you feel rather than speak. Play on your real-world touch and promotion comes for delivering on a promise.

Aries

You are drawn to somebody’s mind and love making them laugh. Take it beyond the mental level and balance somebody else’s needs with your demands for freedom. The itch for revolution is real and you need a worthwhile cause to fulfil it. Don’t compromise. Set your sights high at home and real-estate comes up trumps.

Taurus

An unlikely relationship keeps raising questions and forces you to think. Venus, your ruler, gives you the gift of compromise and you love doing things with two on Wednesday. See somebody in a new light and sacrifice has irresistible appeal. Passions are raised at home and a renovation project uses up your energy.

Gemini

Mercury, your ruler, sits perfectly and you hold your own in debate. A persistent problem finds a smart solution and you wonder why you didn’t think of it before. Chemistry comes with a co-worker and puts a new perspective on a part-time job. Take it easy midweek and Saturday meets you with an injection of energy.

Cancer

You have turned the corner and every mundane situation is full of promise. Step up to your vision and balance it with practical moves. Venus, planet of diplomacy, looks for fun and there's no compromise with day to day duty calls. Saturday favours quiet times, and gigs and galleries have an irresistible aesthetic appeal.

Leo

You are in full flamboyant mode and inspire everyone with your fire. Rules and limitations sit uneasily, but pick your moment before speaking out of turn. Somebody’s romantic style is a little secretive and it takes you a while to adjust. Take your time on a property venture and applying the personal touch on Friday closes the deal.
