Libra
Born between: Sep 23rd - Oct 22nd
Convincing and charming are the best characteristics of someone born under the Libra star sign. When they overcome shyness those with the Libra sign are great debaters who will always share credit for their wins.
The fortunate influence of the planet Jupiter is all you around you today. There will be the opportunity to enjoy good luck. And your instincts and intuition will work well so you could end up in the right place at the right moment, saying the right thing. You will be in a buoyant, enthusiastic mood and will look for more stimulating company over the next few weeks. Maybe more travel if you can manage, or some other way of broadening your horizons. Beneficial colours are pastels and orange. Lucky numbers are 7 and 18.
For a few weeks your dynamic energy is channelled into work and achieving your ambitions. At times you justify what you do just because of the outcome. This can make you seem opportunistic and insensitive to the needs of those less able. You find it difficult to understand people who lack your drive but just remember that everyone is different. You are determined to sweep everything into shape at home. But beware a tendency to be too aggressive. Auspicious colours are primrose yellow and burnt orange. Lucky numbers are 1 and 15.
At the moment you have a very strong need to belong, to be loved and cosseted. Look for reassuring friends who will give you more attention and support than usual, and be an anchor for you. Try to avoid over-eating, because this kind of self-indulgence will only make you feel worse later. Your mood is fickle, so you need friends who will let you lean on them one moment and fly free the next. Harmonious colours are rust red and butterscotch. Lucky numbers are 66 and 51.
If you attempt any tasks that require clear thinking or attention to precise detail, you won't do them well. You'll end up in a pickle and you'll have to go back and redo them later on. Push dreary chores to one side. If you go with the flow you'll get where you want to go just as quickly. Your mind will wander quite a bit today, so try to think before you speak. Opportune colours are aqua and apricot. Lucky numbers are 4 and 66.
Give yourself some elbow room over the next couple of days. If you are around other people too much you'll feel edgy and crowded. The Uranus energy around you now makes you leap to conclusions and do wild and fiery things that could get you into trouble. Your working relationships may not be that easy either, since things can be tense. Advantageous colours are indigo and ebony. Lucky numbers are 40 and 55.
You're dashing here and there, trying to sort out what others think, untangling messes and getting confused as a result. You need to channel this energy so that you don't do something stupid or have an accident. At the end of it all, you come to your own conclusions as you always do. When the moment is right, you will know where to commit your energy for a steady, successful future. Effective colours are peach and gold. Lucky numbers are 17 and 33.
You feel cut off from the important people in your life just briefly - or perhaps you just see it that way. Actually, you are alienating your deepest feelings, because you think you might not like what you find. Try to ease up, be honest with yourself and everything will fall into place. If the foundations you have laid in your career in the past are solid, now is your time to flourish. Favourable colours are sable and ruby red. Lucky numbers are 12 and 54.
There's a great deal of good conversation going on. Hidden sources of inspiration and strength are appearing now which you never knew you possessed and these will help you through the stress and strains of everyday routines. There are wise ones who can help you understand yourself better - you just have to find them. Through this experience you will suddenly be able to see that listening to your own inner judgement is really for the best. Empowering colours are sunflower yellow and cornflower blue. Lucky numbers are 36 and 59.
You are focused on your working situation at the moment and you want more recognition and appreciation of your talents. You have to put your energy into doing things in a new and different way. You need to get out of the rut you are in and make sure that other people are being well looked after. Perhaps you feel you have to be successful in the world to be loved. Don't confuse your emotional worth with the trappings of success. Auspicious colours are scarlet and cream. Lucky numbers are 2 and 66.
You should be dealing superbly with almost everyone around you just now and you will even be able to bring authority figures around to your side. The danger is that you will be whizzing ahead so fast, you forget to pay attention to details. You expect everyone to dance to your tune. Your straightforward approach cuts through barriers and gets to the point of any situation faster than usual. Fortunate colours are mother of pearl and mango. Lucky numbers are 50 and 30.
It won't be a huge problem, but you are going off in so many different directions at once, you find it difficult to slow down. It's a good idea to write down a few of the inspirations and bright ideas that either you or other people have. Powerful Pluto is around for quite a while in your house which rules everyday contacts and communications. During this time you can end up seeing everything very intensely. Fortunate colours are jade and tartan. Lucky numbers are 22 and 42.
You're pondering the meaning of life and your belief systems which guide your actions. Quite the armchair philosopher at the moment you are thinking deeply about life and want to swap ideas with friends. Because you come across as honest, outgoing, confident and good with words, you will be a popular companion at work and at play. With Jupiter in your area of secret matters, this is a time of strong spiritual growth for you. Empowering colours are antique gold and silver. Lucky numbers are 7 and 55.
Your feelings are more intense than usual with the New Moon, but they are telling you what you need to know about an intimate partnership. If you can lay your cards on the table in private, you'll get a better insight into how to deal with similar situations in the future. What you need at work is a good deal more freedom to express yourself and utilise your talents. You no longer wish to fulfil other people's expectations, so following orders is not as easy as it once was. Uplifting colours are platinum and burgundy. Lucky numbers are 75 and 48.
You have to come to new arrangements with your partner over joint finances, as well as your emotional life. It may only be minor adjustments that are needed but it'll put everything on a more solid footing. Maybe you pitched your expectations too high about one particular matter and the reality doesn't match your vision. Try to see clearly what you have got going with your loved ones, and be satisfied. If you demand perfection you'll always be discontented. Auspicious colours are pumpkin and plum. Lucky numbers are 9 and 20.
If you leap into situations without having thought them through clearly, they won't turn out well, since Venus, your life-ruler, is retrograde. Try to accept some restraints, but make changes as steadily as you can. You must find a way of working where you can express your individuality because you won't put up with compromises any more. Find yourself a niche where you have more elbow room. This is the time to branch out on your own or explore new techniques of working. Beneficial colours are ice blue and gunmetal grey. Lucky numbers are 2 and 27. Read more on Venus Retrograde.
You are fairly intense at the moment and other people could find you more stubborn than usual in discussions. You will have to confront those who share joint responsibilities with you to sort out better agreements. But try not to go leaping into a situation too emotionally and then discover that you don't really want to see it through to the end. It's important for you to be surrounded by nice, happy, reassuring mates. Alluring colours are turquoise and jade. Lucky numbers are 12 and 34.
You do need to sit down and talk through some practical matters with your partner now. Everyone has to be clear what the agreements are. You want to get to the bottom of certain financial matters at the moment and will keep digging in your heels until certain people come clean. It is a time for negotiating, looking for compromises and fairer deals all round. Superficial answers will certainly not do for you. You want to get right down to the roots of things. Lucky colours are ivy green and apricot. Lucky numbers are 65 and 74.
Although you can sometimes be indulgent and highly sociable, you also have bags of initiative and a good deal of ambition. With dynamic Mars now passing across your midheaven which rules career and reputation, you're more determined even than usual to work hard to gain your ends. Not only in your career but also out on the social scene you'll want more excitement and adventure. You want to be entertained and informed at the same time. It's going to be an exciting time. Harmonious colours are antique gold and copper. Lucky numbers are 3 and 49.
You are feeling strong, secretive and determined at the moment. There is a sense that everything you attempt will succeed. But you won't readily divulge what you're thinking, feeling or planning to any but your nearest and most intimate partners. Everyday encounters are carrying a much more significant tone for you at the moment, bringing you intense conversations, in-depth discussions, sometimes rather startling insights. You just have to watch a tendency to become rather stubborn and resist help when it is offered. Inspirational colours are peach and dark purple. Lucky numbers are 5 and 56.
Try to find a little tact as a counter balance to your ambition, and sweep companions up in your enthusiasm. You will be able to enjoy praise for your accomplishments soon. Luckily today Jupiter will bring sweetness and light to your domestic life. But you are likely to over indulge and expand as a result. And you will also be thoroughly and gloriously lazy. But it might be a good time to mull over old memories in the peaceful moments. Empowering colours are ruby red and navy. Lucky numbers are 7 and 46.
You are trying to go in two opposite directions at once, alternating between duty and inclination. Following your whims will give you a guilty conscience, but being dutiful will make you feel hard done by. You will be promoting yourself in a very strong way and flirtatiously seeking to be in the limelight. There will be more emotional depth in relationships with loved ones, whether it's children, adults or indeed social companions. Balancing colours are mustard and silver. Lucky numbers are 8 and 14.
Positive planetary influences make you feel friendly towards almost everyone you meet now. You will be wonderfully diplomatic. You will be writing the letters you've been leaving to one side and pouring oil on troubled waters. And telling the wonderful people in your life how positively you feel about them. You need to be able to talk things through with close mates and the channels of communication are flowing more smoothly now. Favourable colours are silvery grey and dusky pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 66.
Your partner really wants to hear what you have to say at the moment. You have a sensible view of your joint situation and can sort out tangles faster than most. You will be concentrating on confidential matters, both financial and emotional. This could make you come across as stubborn, insisting on sticking to your own plans. You do need to stand your ground but you also need to be flexible, and compromise where necessary to get agreement. Stabilising colours are terracotta and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 43 and 24.
The Moon is travelling through your chart area of home and family matters for a couple of days so you'll want to draw back from too much hustle and hassle at work. Really you would be happiest with your feet up in familiar surroundings. It's clearly a good time to retreat and have a little bit of peace and quiet, as well as some privacy. Self- protective and sensitive, you want to cling on to loved ones or familiar surroundings. Auspicious colours are emerald green and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 5 and 72.
Now you intend to put all your grand plans into gear. You'll be working hard and promoting your ambitions over coming weeks. No one will accuse you of lacking courage or being too timid as you push rivals out of the way. You intend to make your mark. Boss figures may find you a little threatening as you obviously intend to take over the decision making role. Be aware that charging ahead in a headstrong way could run you into problems. Ideal colours are terracotta and mustard. Lucky numbers are 7 and 31.
You seem genuinely happy with your own company and will be content to reflect on your thoughts. You are radiating an inner peace that others envy. But if there is someone close by in need, you will be understanding of their problems. And because you are tuned in at a deeper level than usual, your sympathy will hit the right spot. At work you will not want to fit in with other people's orders or instructions. You must find yourself a niche where you can have more elbow room. Uplifting colours are myrtle and pepper. Lucky numbers are 37 and 74.
Today can be a wonderfully sensitive, spiritual and creative time, but it's not very practical. So it's important to keep your imagination under control and keep double-checking that you're being realistic. Emotional muddles may be difficult to clear up at this time and you could find loved ones evasive. On the bright side, your sense of sympathy is extremely strong and your sense of mystery will attract romantic admirers. Beneficial colours are hazelnut and cream. Lucky numbers are 3 and 42.
You are feeling more intense than usual. You realise that getting cash arrangements sorted out is vital, especially if you feel you aren't being valued properly. If you feel frustrated because companions are shutting off what you say, then you need to rethink your approach. Sometimes the harder you push, the more they resist. Gentle persuasion will work best, or even be slightly devious. Go the long way round rather than being too direct. Auspicious colours are sunflower yellow and pumpkin. Lucky numbers are 32 and 16.
Sometimes you get yourself worked up about things that are not as important as you're making them out to be. Try to give yourself some space to just wind down and be a bit more at peace if you possibly can. Maybe you will be too sentimental or too sugary sweet on the surface. Try to be more honest about your feelings underneath. You will want beauty or luxury at home and your appetite may be more tempted than usual. Positive colours are bright red and avocado. Lucky numbers are 64 and 4.
Sometimes you feel passionate about things and sometimes everything gets a bit gritty and you struggle to break free. Try not to overreact to the odd stress and strain, just rise graciously above it all and harmony will be restored sooner than you think. Watch you are not too forceful in expressing yourself now and get into arguments. Look at the other person's point of view. You are probably not aware of how intense you sound. Appropriate colours are mother of pearl and dark green. Lucky numbers are 3 and 62.
With Jupiter passing slowly but steadily through your twelfth house of secrets and confidential matters, you're finding yourself more contented. The best result is that you are learning to be more confident and the best insights will come in the quiet moments. Heavy responsibilities at work or out in the community weigh you down temporarily but you will gain a sense of fulfilment. Remember you will reap now what you have sown in previous years. You have a greater sense of security. Expressive colours are aquamarine and dark brown. Lucky numbers are 2 and 23.
