Victoria Bazeley's monthly horoscopes
TAURUSLove, money, and hanging around the house are potentially on tap for Taurus this month. The potential love action comes courtesy of a solar eclipse on September 11 in your solar 5th house.
Gee, what a romantic date for that. Sorry, had to be said.
I'm not going to worry about it...If the universe doesn't deliver your dream person to your doorstep right that day, though, don't fret.
Eeek! Okay, probably not.
Eclipses are known to act within a fairly wide range of time (figure any time from now until the end of October as the likely time frame) and in sneakily surprising ways. You may not know you've fallen in love until it's too late to be cautious and prudent!
On the other hand, once you do fall in love, you are likely to be just that--and serious as well, thanks to Saturn's move into that same solar 5th house. That goes for Taureans who are already in a relationship, too. The universe is feeling all romantically serious on your behalf, and I have a feeling it's kind of enjoying the sensation.
The money portion of the equation comes courtesy of Gemini in Mars in your solar 2nd house of finances opposing Jupiter in your solar 8th house and eventually Pluto in that same house. It's possible that this configuration could deliver some substantial financial gains, as Jupiter and Mars when working together like to think big. On the other hand, this configuration could deliver some substantial financial outlays, as Mars in the 2nd sometimes seems to like to throw cash out the window. Which way things go will depend, I suppose, on whether you enjoy making money more than spending it!
Uh-oh...I do the latter!
Well, THOSE certainly contrast, don't they?SCORPIOThis is one of those darn unpredictable months that seem to crop up here lately with some regularity. Unpredictability this month comes courtesy of planets in all the mutable unpredictable signs along with a couple of eclipses. Eclipses are like wild cards--you don't know what they're going to be until they show up, so it's sort like the majority of planets are hedging their bets and deciding not to put any cards on the table until the last minute.What does that mean to you? A couple of things. One, be alert when it comes to money. Mars in Gemini in your 8th house of joint finances and non-salary income will be opposing Jupiter in your second house of ordinary income. This can be good, expansive influence, or an expensive one. The prudent thing to do is to know exactly what you need and want financially so that you can be on top of situations as they develop. For example, you may want to invest in your future--or you may want to avoid temptation to overspend. You may want to make an impressive proposal to important people, or you may want to avoid clashes with those same important people. It all depends on your circumstances--so the smart thing to do is to understand your circumstances and what the most desirable outcome of strong money energy would be for you this month.The other area in which to be alert is relationships. The eclipses will fall across the solar sectors that relate to love affairs (and children, if you have them) and friendships. Theoretically, something would end in the love sector and start up in the friendship sector. But eclipses can be tricky. What might end in the love sector is a psychological hang-up and what might begin in the friendship sector is short-term participation in some sort of group endeavor. Again, the key is to know what you'd like. With Saturn moving into your 11th solar house of hopes and wishes and life goals, part of the idea here is to get serious about what you really want out of life. Understanding that is essentially the key to your fortunes over the next couple of years, and it will be okay if your thoughts evolve over time. But it would be worth your while to give the matter some thought.
