Capricorn
Born between: Dec 22nd - Jan 19th
Highly intelligent and organised, the Capricorn star sign often relates to characterises of perseverance and planning. Capricorns need to be careful to not take on too many of other people's problems on top of their own.
It's Hallowe'en and certain things are preying on your mind. They may be your own version of ghoulies and ghosties, such as worries about someone's health or general welfare. Although these anxieties may be perfectly valid, bear in mind that you're probably exaggerating them right now or allowing them to have a greater hold on you than is strictly necessary. Auspicious colours are silvery blue and silvery pink. Lucky numbers are 14 and 40.
No matter what you're doing or who you're with this Saturday, you'll find it easy to get on well with whoever happens to be around. If you're at work, there will be an easygoing atmosphere with colleagues, superiors and customers. If you're with an older friend or relative, you'll enjoy making a bit of a fuss of them. Ideal colours are pale pink and dark pink. Lucky numbers are 33 and 37.
Between now and late November you'll place a lot of importance on relationships with people who are older, wiser or more powerful than you. You might even strike up a new connection with someone who comes into one of these categories, in which case they'll have a big impact on you. They may also open doors for you that have remained closed until now. Beneficial colours are ochre and navy. Lucky numbers are 21 and 4.
Today's eclipsed Full Moon has a powerful effect on your love life during the next couple of weeks. A relationship could reach a watershed, in which it either has to move on to a new phase or come to a grinding halt. If you've been working hard at a creative venture, this is a good time to bring it to a successful conclusion. Fortunate colours are pineapple and plum. Lucky numbers are 19 and 45.
You're in the mood to get things done today and you'll be very industrious. This is especially likely if you're hoping to clear up situations or problems that have been on your conscience recently, because it will be a tremendous relief to get shot of them at long last. However, make sure you don't impose your ideas on others without their consent. Favourable colours are oyster and ginger. Lucky numbers are 31 and 34.
You'll learn a lot about someone from talking to them now, particularly if you're discussing topics of intellectual or historical interest. You'll get a strong sense of satisfaction from being with people who are on the same wavelength as you. Even if there are some glaring differences between you, you won't notice them at the moment. Fortunate colours are olive and dark orange. Lucky numbers are 34 and 61.
We all know that you have a highly developed sense of responsibility but it's important that you keep it in check today, otherwise it will encourage you to take on more duties than you can comfortably handle. So try to be sensible if someone is looking for a volunteer, because what seems feasible right now may turn out to be a millstone round your neck in a few days' time. Inspirational colours are dark brown and platinum. Lucky numbers are 34 and 53.
Mix with plenty of different people today because you'll have some very interesting and lively conversations. You might even get involved in a discussion that stretches your mind and forces you to think along very logical lines. Get out your diary because at some point you might receive an exciting invitation or issue your own. Auspicious colours are russet and platinum. Lucky numbers are 21 and 46.
All money matters need to be treated with extreme caution today. There's a strong likelihood that someone is trying to steal a march on you in some way, or they're hoping to separate you from your cash through nefarious means. Ideally, you should avoid all financial transactions like the plague now. If that's impossible, try to keep your eyes and ears open as much as possible. Fortunate colours are smoky purple and mother of pearl. Lucky numbers are 36 and 23.
There have been days recently when you've acted against your own best interests by being unsure of yourself, hesitant or all too keen to put yourself down. Luckily, you're much more confident of your abilities today and you're keen to advertise them whenever you get the chance. You'll also feel more self assured and authoritative if you've got to tell someone what to do or take charge of a situation. Dynamic colours are jet black and fire engine red. Lucky numbers are 10 and 71.
You'll have to keep your wits about you if you're handling money today, because mistakes and muddles are horribly likely. You might misread a price tag, or only realize that you've bought the wrong item when it's too late to do anything about it. There's also a chance that you could be at the mercy of someone who wants to do you down or trick you in some way. Propitious colours are avocado and lavender. Lucky numbers are 30 and 1.
This isn't a good day to ask a certain person for advice or to explain a cherished plan, because they'll be extremely negative and pessimistic. They'll be so keen to point out all the pitfalls that they'll barely listen to what you're saying. You may also be doing a good job of telling yourself that something won't work out, even if this is far from the truth. Be more positive! Beneficial colours are burgundy and cream. Lucky numbers are 5 and 8.
You can't help smiling as you listen to a certain person today because they're so full of themselves. To hear them talk, you'd think that they performed several miracles every day and twice as many on Sundays. Now, if you're a rather hidebound Capricorn you can learn something from all this. Try to adopt a small fraction of this person's abundant self-confidence. Uplifting colours are dark green and amber. Lucky numbers are 20 and 77.
Someone is a great help today, even if they're operating behind the scenes. They might be giving you plenty of quiet encouragement, so you know that they have faith in you and this spurs you on to greater achievements. If you're working as part of a team, you'll be happiest if you can have a little time to yourself at some point. Inspirational colours are apple blossom and ochre. Lucky numbers are 4 and 38.
If you're fed up with always being seen as a rather dour or shy Capricorn, this is a perfect day for revealing a more lighthearted side of your character. This will be a liberating experience, so throw caution to the winds and say or do things that you might usually think twice about. There's little danger that you'll go over the top, although it may feel that way if you aren't used to letting rip because you're normally so concerned about creating a good impression. Favourable colours are burnt orange and golden yellow. Lucky numbers are 13 and 68.
A relationship will benefit from what happens now. You realize how much a certain person means to you, making you want to spend more time with them in future. Or you could get a better understanding of your personal responsibilities. It's also a terrific day for having a serious conversation with someone in which you both talk about what really matters to you. Beneficial colours are passionfruit and iridescent blue. Lucky numbers are 28 and 44.
Don't neglect your friendships during the rest of October because you'll be missing out on an important chunk of your life. This will be a wonderful opportunity to spend more time with people who are on the same wavelength as you, whether you're united through a shared activity, belief or affection. You'll learn a lot from one another now. Sociable colours are deep gold and royal purple. Lucky numbers are 35 and 76.
Today's eclipsed New Moon gives you a massive burst of enthusiasm and energy during the next couple of weeks, which will be just what you need if you want to make headway in activities that boost your reputation or ego. For instance, you might decide that this is your chance to apply for a high-status job or you could pull off a big coup that puts you in the limelight. Favourable colours are primrose and lime. Lucky numbers are 38 and 20.
It's horribly easy to trip yourself up by being too timid or critical today. For instance, you might be so afraid of appearing stupid that you don't even attempt to do or say something, and then you spend the rest of the day suffering agonies of frustration. You may also develop a self-defeating habit of putting yourself down when talking to others. What's wrong? Favourable colours are caramel and silver. Lucky numbers are 21 and 66.
This is a great day for trying your luck at work or in a long- term goal. You know what they say about nothing ventured, nothing gained, and today you're eager to put that to the test. Besides, you're feeling nicely confident of your abilities. Someone in authority over you will be helpful and encouraging, so you realize you aren't doing too badly after all. Great! Opportunistic colours are ruby red and smoky quartz. Lucky numbers are 14 and 60.
Something is bothering you and you won't relax until you've thought it through thoroughly. This might be a problem that you usually try not to think about, or it could be a long-running emotional difficulty with someone that rears its ugly head again now. It might help to discuss it with someone who can understand what you're going through but who won't let you wallow in self-pity. Ideal colours are dark red and hazelnut. Lucky numbers are 4 and 74.
Give yourself a lovely treat by immersing yourself in something that captures your imagination. This might mean visiting an ancient building, such as a ruined castle, and soaking up the atmosphere, or going to a museum and gazing at a beautiful object. You might be so fascinated that you decide to find out more about it. Soaring colours are sky blue and sunset orange. Lucky numbers are 12 and 78.
Something or someone has intrigued you, and you're longing to get to the bottom of what's going on. Maybe you should ask some pertinent questions if that seems appropriate, or do some background research. If you're tackling some paperwork, there's little danger of you overlooking anything important because you've got such a good eye for detail right now. Inspirational colours are strawberry and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 4 and 18.
Thank goodness your spirits start to rise again today, putting you in a much better mood. You may even look back on the past couple of days and shake your head in amused disbelief over your behaviour. Try to blow away the cobwebs by being active whenever possible. You may also have a lively conversation in which you stand up for yourself, but you do it with humour and grace. Stable colours are lavender and mustard yellow. Lucky numbers are 31 and 64.
You're in a sombre mood and have a tendency to take everything rather seriously. Maybe you're concerned about what happened yesterday and are feeling bad about it, in which case you should try to improve the situation in some way. But try not to get into such a downbeat state that nothing can cheer you up and everything has the potential to depress you. Positive colours are ivory and ebony. Lucky numbers are 15 and 71.
The atmosphere between you and a certain person is pretty fraught today. Maybe you've run out of patience with each other or you never had much in the first place. Either way, it will be hard to keep your temper for long. Actually, you need to get certain things off your chest and you won't feel better until that's happened. Auspicious colours are amethyst and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 3 and 23.
You're in a very considerate and kind mood today, especially when it comes to giving someone advice or listening to their tale of woe. You'll do whatever you can to help them, even if this is at considerable inconvenience to yourself. There's a strong possibility that you'll help someone with a money worry at some point. Fortunate colours are banana yellow and silvery blue. Lucky numbers are 25 and 66.
Watch out because worries are never far away today. They're lurking in the back of your mind, waiting to jump out and alarm you at a moment's notice. The question is whether these anxieties are justified, whether they're minor niggles that are distracting you from something more serious, or whether they're frightening figments of your imagination. Favourable colours are amber and jade. Lucky numbers are 35 and 21.
During the next few weeks you'll really enjoy exploring new situations and places. It's the ideal time to go on holiday because it will feel like a wonderful adventure and you'll be in the mood to go exploring as much as possible. There's also a chance now that you could fall in love with someone from another country, race or belief, and this will really open your eyes. Favourable colours are bright red and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 7 and 63.
Your emotions are never far from the surface this Saturday and they'll make themselves known in all sorts of ways. You might have a very sentimental and satisfying conversation with someone you adore, or enjoy a private little reverie about you-know-who. It's certainly a fantastic day for letting down your guard and revealing your heart-felt feelings to someone. Dynamic colours are bronze and jet black. Lucky numbers are 13 and 25.
Your spending habits leave a lot to be desired today, especially if you're feeling in need of a little comfort. Yes, it's one of those days when you're likely to clap eyes on something and then tell yourself that you've just got to have it, even if your credit card balance is already sky-high. You might also be a soft touch if someone wants to borrow money from you. Where's that classic Capricorn prudence gone? Communicative colours are pineapple and kiwifruit. Lucky numbers are 15 and 28.
