Since Sept. 9, Venus has been in Scorpio. This intense pairing will remain there until Oct. 31. Madame G recommends that you get used to the unexpected and prepare for intense and passionate moments.

It is not common for God to allow events to bring pain and suffering in place of things we thought were for our “good.’ If we accept what God has in mind for us, He...

Mars enters Aquarius on Sept. 10 and will remain there until Nov. 15. This is a fun and dynamic pairing. But the energy can become a little hectic and dysfunctional if you’re not careful.
