The Stars This Week: "Stay Focused" - October 13 - October 19, 2008

[I Have A Dream]

Stay Focused

10/13/08 - 10/19/08

What an energetic week! The full Moon in feisty Aries on October 14 heats up your emotions and you may want to think twice before you speak up. Mercury turns direct (finally) on October 15 and finally your plans can get on track. Then, get out your passport when the relationship planet gallops into nomadic Sagittarius on October 18. It's time to spread your wings and move out of old, sleepy routines.

October 14: Aries full Moon

A full Moon is generally a time of heightened emotions, and when it comes in the sign of the God of War, everyone tends to get a bit combative! Count on feeling strongly about what you want to do. Your challenge is to not mow over anyone who feels differently. At its best, Aries is courageous and pioneering. You will be able to move mountains if you use this bold energy and the passion of the full Moon to advance yourself and advocate for others.

October 15: Mercury turns direct

When Mercury turned retrograde in diplomatic relationship-oriented Libra last September 24, it was important to go back to old contacts and conversations. Just as you may have been thinking that those conversations would never end, Mercury finally turns direct, presenting the opportunity to put the period at the end of a sentence! Hopefully you have used this time well and can now move forward with improved relationships and a better understanding of where you stand with others.

October 18: Venus enters Sagittarius

Each year as love-planet Venus enters freedom-oriented Sagittarius, you have the opportunity to get some breathing room in your most important relationships. For those already committed, this is a great time to get out together and go somewhere you've never been. Single? Whether you put on your rollerblades, get on your bike or drive to another town, get out of the house during this nomadic transit and you have a great chance of meeting someone!
