Madame G guide to the stars WEEK OF OCTOBER 15

Print

Venus and Mercury are in Scorpio Oct. 9-31. Prepare for intense communications that are fair and balanced. This will be a welcome change from the chaos of the previous weeks. Now is the time to dig deep and look for the truth. Madame G recommends you embrace the truth (not fear it) for as Keats said: “Beauty is Truth, Truth Beauty.” Good luck!

Aries (March 21-April 19)

The truth cannot hurt you, but fear of the truth will. You may not like what you hear and it might cause some emotional upset (or indigestion) but you’ll be grateful in the end. It’s like ripping off a band aide — rip it off quickly and don’t focus on it. In the end, it’s better to know where you stand and see the reality of the situation rather than focusing on a false sense of security.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Don’t give up! But know when to quit. This is the challenge and balance in life. The Sun is in Libra and this is the sign of balance, justice and fairness under the law. Ask yourself what it will cost you to stay or leave. This analysis isn’t always about money. Sometimes, there is a much higher emotional or spiritual cost that will NOT be worth the money. Think about it.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

What can you do but keep on trucking on and doing your best. Don’t be afraid off the future — this causes anxiety. Don’t dwell on the past — this causes depression. Instead focus on the here and now. What is the one thing (no matter how small) that will help you reach your goals? How can you improve by just one percent today? Focus on that one percent. Make that good.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Don’t dwell in all the possibilities. This is much too grand a scheme. The purpose of education is the help you figure out what you most enjoy, are good at and that provides value. It may take a while but keep searching for what you want to see in yourself. Keep yourself open to the future and don’t get stuck on an idea of perfection. Life rarely works out so neatly, and that’s good.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Keep it up! You’re doing great. Even if you need to rest now and then push forward when you need to and just enjoy what you have. Don’t get trapped in what you’ve lost. Enjoy what you have each day. Be grateful for the life you’ve lived. Be grateful for the people you’ve met. Learn to let go of your idea of perfection. Enjoy your daily life with no activity.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Ebb and flow are what make life great. There are times you need to push and times you need to pull back. It’s not always easy to know which is necessary, but that is the benefit of experience. You’ve encountered this before. However, if you’re just starting out — that’s wonderful, too! That means you get the benefit of trying and failing over and over before you get it right! YES!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct.22)

What does balance, justice and fairness look like in your life? How will you bring these wonderful concepts to life? Figure out how you can make a valuable difference by being yourself. Good luck!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Fear is a great motivator. It’s also a great de-motivator. Where do you fit on the spectrum? You can use fear to push you — you can also let it drown you. However, if you want to be FREE and live the way you’ve always wanted, you might have to accept a certain level of fear. You don’t need to let it rule your life. But one day you will die. Are you living free? Are you being you?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Don’t forget to pack a lunch. This is going to be a bumpy ride and you might just need a snack. If confrontation just isn’t your thing, you may have the urge to run and hide. Though understandable, it’s not practical. Instead, focus on what you’re learning. Listen to others without responding and remember their truth is not always yours. Just listen and learn. You’ll be fine.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Sometimes the best defense is a good offense. So take matters into your own hands and focus on yourself. What do you need to do to be protected? What do you need to feel safe? Whatever is the case, do what you think is best. Your life is valuable, too. Be grateful for what you’ve learned and just accept that somethings don’t change. Take care of you.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

As Harriet Beecher Stowe said, “When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.” Don’t give up! You’re almost there.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

It’s hard to accept the truth at times, especially when you don’t want to hear it. But consider that everyone has their own lives to live and is doing the best they can. Instead of overreacting think about how your behavior affects others. Is it off putting? If it is, consider changing a few things, especially if they are things that can be changed, such as spitting at people or interrupting.
