22 MIDWEEK SEPTEMBER 22, 2021
RELEASE DATE—Sunday, September 19, 2021 RELEASE DATE—Sunday, September 19, 2021
BY MADAM LICHTENSTEIN
Certain events can cause some miscommunication in the cosmos now. Double check all your plans and be prepared for a little fogginess in the process. Pack a map so you don’t get too lost.
VIRGO (AUGUST24-SEPTEMBER23)
Your ideas for investing and handling your money may hit a snag, Virgo. Are
you forgetting something important, or are there things that you may not fully understand? Whatever it is, try to be very careful in your financial vetting, do your homework and give yourself plenty of time to go through the details so that you completely understand. Then, cash in!
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER24-OCTOBER23)
As much as you want to make a great first impression, you may need a bit of time to prepare your public face for the crowds. Libras are naturally gracious and diplomatic. Now, you want to be absolutely sure that you are in the right place, at the right time, with the right crowd. Survey your surroundings, give yourself time to process and — only then — go for it.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER24-NOVEMBER22)
There are so many crazy things going on behind the scenes. Scorpios can be forgiven if they don’t have all of the details of a particular situation. You may not be able to totally control what is hidden from you, but you can control how you react and what steps you take after all is revealed. You are naturally strategic. Do what comes naturally.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER23-DECEMBER22)
Friends may be a source of confusion for you Sagittarius. Wires may be crossed and there might be some miscommunication. Sometimes, this confusion can be funny or even entertaining. Keep your innate sense of humor and see how you can make certain friendships operate on a new level of understanding.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER23-JANUARY20)
No matter how much effort you have put into your career, there could be times when you find yourself going off on a different path. Take a moment to ascertain your path. Should you be offered a new opportunity, be sure that you ask all of the necessary questions and listen carefully to all of the answers, Capricorn. Then, take your time making any decision.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY21-FEBRUARY19)
Travel may have its detours now, Aquarius. While you are eager to broaden your horizon, you will need to check your itinerary twice, create a packing checklist and be sure that you comply with any rules along the way. Whether you go far or close, there might be times when you could get lost. Your world becomes one big adventure. How big is up to you.
PISCES (FEBRUARY20-MARCH20)
Love is on the top of your to-do list now, Pisces. Your charisma is high and you can reach out and impress almost anyone you want. Be sure that your messages are reaching the right target and truly reflect what you are feeling. Be sure that your communication is clear. My advice is to practice, practice, practice to make it all perfect.
ARIES (MARCH21-APRIL20)
You may think that you are being perfectly clear but your message may not be understood correctly by partners, Aries. Relationships may require a slower pace, but it will prove to be more harmonious in the long run. Be very patient with partners. There will be times that actions speak louder and are better understood than your words.
TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)
Any work project can go a little off direction now, Taurus. It could be because oth- ers are not listening carefully to your instructions or it could be that you may not be as clear as you should and could be. Whatever the reason, take any detailed initiative and break it down into its bare essentials. Then, check to see its progress every step of the way. Tedious? Sure. But it’s effective.
GEMINI (MAY22-JUNE21)
Fun may not seem as fun as you first thought, Gemini. That is because it takes a lot more work and doubling of your efforts. There are still opportunities to be very creative and enjoy everything you do now. Just plan it a little more and find ways to focus in on any possible miscommunications.
CANCER (JUNE22-JULY23)
Family discussions may have a way of getting totally out of control now, Cancer. That means that any highly sensitive subject needs to be approached with greater care and caution than usual. Others may not be listening or you may not be expressing yourself in a clear manner. Better still, if issues can be deferred and discussed in a few weeks, put them off.
LEO (JULY24-AUGUST23)
While you always enjoy shaking up the landscape with your opinions, it might be good to hold off on your mighty roar for a couple of weeks, Leo. Get your ideas lined up and your opinions clarified so when you decide to share your thoughts, they are understood. In the meantime, mellow out and contemplate.
