Happy Birthday Virgo!
(August 23–September 22)
Starting from the 3rd, this month promises to show off your highest qualities. Do you know what they are? You can tell because they open your heart and stimulate your mind. Love is a roller coaster: on the 7th, he’s irritating and lacks respect; on the 8th, he’s funny and smart; on the 9th, you’d be happy never to see him again, but by the 11th, you realize that anyone who can make you feel all of those things must be for you! Go figure. Love grows if he supports your good habits on 17th – 21st and it withers if he messes up your stuff on the 20th. From the 24th, all that is required is a good attitude.

Question authority! And while you are at it, use that special Libra ability for intelligent debate from the 2nd – 8th. Your passion for truth is so intense on the 11th that it’s downright alluring. Make him do the work if he wants you from the 12th – 21st. He wouldn’t be right for you if he wasn’t up for a challenge. Beautiful dreams can become beautiful expressions through art, design, or music after the 24th. Strive less, see more and make serious resolutions for the year you want to have from the 29th – 30th. It is a time for new beginnings, Libra.

Lean on your best friend until the 8th. She has what it takes to really understand you and she appreciates that you would do the same for her. On the 7th, don’t believe everything you hear. Sometimes people tell you things for the wrong reasons and nothing feels worse to a Scorpio than knowing you were manipulated by gossip. Love is up close and personal in the 15th. He looks like the kind of guy your parents might like and, for once, you actually agree with them! This trend continues until the 21st. Despite the feeling of new beginnings that September brings, energy falls flat from the 23rd – 29th. Everyone needs a break. Things perk up from the 29th.

(November 22–December 21)
Expect to do well and get what you want from the 1st – 8th. The world is your oyster, as long as you play by the rules. From the 9th – 15th, someone with similar expectations to the ones you have, crosses you. Let this challenge inspire you to achieve even greater things and you will be glad you did on the 17th – 21st. Love is fueled by good conversation right now—online or in person. If he is smart enough, you just might be interested. Talking with him will help you figure it out. Social activity is loose and easy from the 24th – 29th. Hang with the ones you find comfortable and supportive.

Use your smarts from the 1st – 8th to organize your life the way you want it. People who think they are smarter than you may try to interfere on the 7th. Listen respectfully to what they have to say: you might learn something, but in the end, you will make your own decisions. Love is about truth and honesty on the 15th. If you can’t say what you’re thinking than what’s the point? High expectations from the 17th – 21st require some planning and consideration. Give yourself much needed down time from the 24th – 29th. It’s worth all the time it takes to have clear goals.

Imagine yourself as the brilliant detective at the center of your own mystery. You have an eye for detail and are wise about the ways of humans. By the 4th, you may have solved the mystery of why your romantic interest acts the way he does, but it will take time to convince him that you really do understand him. On the 7th, he defends himself and there is nothing you can do. So do nothing. By the 11th, the truth will come out and your reward for having laid low will come by the 15th. Learning is easy and fun from the 16th – 22nd. Hunker down with your favorite subjects after the 24th. They will make more sense after the 29th and into the next month.

Everyone and their mom seems to think that what they want is more important and interesting than what you want. You’re okay with this and willing to listen to reason— except on the 7th and 9th when it’s way too extreme. It feels as if your boyfriend is in the relationship all by himself and that your parents have forgotten that you are capable of making decisions on your own. By the 15th, assert yourself for all to hear and things will settle down for a while. Share your dreams (both day- and night-dreams) with someone close to you from the 16th – 21st. Be a good listener on the 24th…someone has lots to tell you.

It’s a battle between you and the other guy (this might be anyone from your significant other to your best friend to the person on the street). Before you come out with your dukes up, ask yourself what it would look like to win. How would you like to feel when it’s all over? Be thoughtful until the 4th and try not to overreact between the 7th – 11th. Focus on your work from the 14th – 16th, and on your friends and social life from the 17th – 22nd. After that, the entire world needs to chill. You could learn a lot about someone you love from the 24th just by letting them be who they are. It’s a kind of magical.

Romance has a serious side. There is love, but there are also bigger questions. If love is burdensome from the 1st – 6th, don’t carry it alone. Share your feelings with the object of your affections on the 7th. He might not at first, but he really gets it by the 8th. From the 9th – 21st, receive some well deserved rewards for work well done. Effort in = results out. Take a break from any and all stress from the 24th – 29th. This may seem unrealistic, but there is nothing happening that you can’t miss. From the 29th, begin sorting your life in general. Out with the old to make room for the new!

September brings out your nesting instinct and all things home and family are on your mind. On the other hand, your astrological house of love and fun is also quite active. From the 1st – 21st you’re feeling very sentimental. Get mushy with your man and tell him how you feel. It’s also a good time to tap into your creative side through art, music, dance, design and/or sports. Give your mind a rest from the 23rd – 29th and after the 29th, you can expect fun-filled, creative month ahead.

Apply yourself to learning. Consider the best approach given the time you have. When you’re scheduling the weeks ahead, make sure you include time for your sweetie. He believes in you, even if sometimes he doesn’t show it very well (like from the 7th – 9th when it feels like you can’t do anything right in his eyes). Your sensitivity might just be picking up on stuff that doesn’t belong to you. Hit the books from the 14th – 16th. When you need a break, put some energy into your surroundings. Have you created a beautiful atmosphere for yourself? Do you enjoy inviting people into your space? If not, let beauty be your goal from the 17th – 21st and enjoy it with friends and family for a while after.

Have you been financially responsible over the summer? If so, you are ready to reap the rewards from the 3rd – 8th. A shopping spree is in order. Go for quality, even if it costs a bit more. You want it to last. Romance is easy from the 14th – 21st. Let poetry or music kindle the flame, but don’t forget to add a dash of humor. A good laugh invites love in like nothing else. On the 20th, blow off the email that seems insulting; reacting could stir up a needless battle. From the 24th, misunderstandings continue to multiply. You will really need that sense of humor for the next three weeks.
