Harvest Season

August 30th, 2013 Comments off

ALL SIGNS
As we roll from summer to fall the Sun moves into earthy Virgo and it’s time for us all to get grounded. School starts up again and we breathe fresh life into our daily routines. We are all feeling a bit more health conscious too! Jupiter in Cancer favors our endeavors to make a more secure home life and put down some stable roots (albeit it temporary for some of us). With Mars in Leo we’re enterprising and industrious, yet still playful and creative. Fun times with children and spontaneous getaways will entice!

ARIES  If you haven’t already taken a vacation (or a staycation) this is a great time to do so, Aries. With Mars in Leo you’re feeling more inspired with all forms of creative play – from artistic pursuits to romantic expressions – this a sweet time! As well, with Jupiter cruising through your fourth house, your home scene is getting cozy and more enjoyable! You’ll be entertaining, redecorating, and in general feeling good about where you live. Married Arians will enjoy teaming up together on home improvement projects and joint purchases. Single Arians may meet a romantic interest through a family or friend connection. So say yes to any invitations that come your way! (This is also a great time for a home-based business to take off.)

Singles will find they’re to drawn to someone they can learn from – making a strong intellectual connection likely. Married Taurians can benefit from sharing observations about life, or taking some classes together. You’re curious to understand the point of view of others making you a good listener now. (Plus you get some brownie points!) Short trips will be uplifting and fun.

GEMINI  It’s a time of increase Gemini (don’t worry, I’m not talking about your waistline!). Jupiter is making it’s transit through your second house of earnings and wealth – so guess what? You’re going to see some bounty this harvest season! (By the way, that can mean spending too – so you might want a second opinion before you buy that yellow Gucci pantsuit – just saying.) Regardless, you’re going to feel more fortunate as you discover valuable and encouraging traits about yourself and the world that surrounds you. This is an excellent season to ask for a raise or increase your hourly rate – you’re worth it baby! You can expect to be seriously productive this fall, since you’re cooking with gas.
