LIBRA September 22nd - October 23rd

Friendships and collective goals are highlighted when the Sun is in Leo and the ability to fulfil some of your hopes and wishes that are connected to group endeavours. Your leadership skills can also show.

After the 16^th when Venus moves into your sign, all born up to October 12^th have an extra strong aesthetic sense, and romance, enjoyment and social life have a particularly pleasing quality. Also your extra charisma shines and PR skills are accentuated.

Before the 28^th however, Mars the planet of war, is in Cancer, your solar 10^th house, suggesting that all born after October 6^th have the distinct danger of those at work having the boxing gloves on. People are not pushovers and you need to be wary of your own impatience, perfectionism and over-assertion. Count to ten.

However if born between September 30^th and October 8^th, Jupiter is very protective of your career but there is the possibility of having a little over-confidence, which can sometimes, come across to others as complacency and extravagance.

If born October 4^th to 7^th, Uranus in his once every 84-year visitation, is creating a lot of unpredictable events around relationships. Others are unreliable, unpredictable and bringing some shocks and surprises into your life. In effect they are kick-starting you into a new chapter, and although change is uncomfortable, it is often liberating.

If born October 2^nd to 3^th Pluto is bringing some issues on the domestic or family front that can be troublesome. Power struggles are in the air. Deep-rooted buttons are being pressed and survival issues are strong in terms of emotional and psychological instincts. Draw boundaries, state your case, and recognise ends of chapters, within and without, but with humility and dignity.  Pluto forces you to face buried issues whose hour has come to show themselves for honest confrontation and understanding. That which we repress within us, controls us, that which we confront, we can control.
