October Horoscope: Aluna Michaels




 Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) – Happy birthday Libra! This
 year is about materializing your wishes and ideas. Meditate
 on the things you desire most. Visualize yourself in new
 circumstances. Use affirmations and perhaps make an image
 board to inspire you. Create a special space in your home
 for spiritual reflection and relaxation. Also, look for
 problems to be resolved that have seemed impossible. Your
 faith made that happen!
 
 
 
 
Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) – Mars is entering your
 sign, filling you with the energy and enthusiasm to start
 new goals. This is a great time to start a meditation
 program, especially if it involves movement, such as yoga,
 tai chi or walking meditation. Look carefully at your
 friendships and see if they are nurturing you or draining
 you. Be willing to let go of circumstances that continually
 frustrate you and make room for joy and ease!
 
 
 
 Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) – Let go of old
 grudges. You value your freedom so much . . . meditate on
 how resentments are keeping you a prisoner of your lower
 consciousness. The Universe is giving you energy to cleanse
 your heart and mind so that you can have more karmic
 freedom. You’ll be able to release bad habits, unhealthy
 relationships or improve your finances. Forgiveness is worth
 it!
 
 
 
 
Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) – It’s vital for you to
 feel that God, the Universe and your spiritual guides are on
 your side. You often feel like you’re alone and
 struggling. You wonder if God really cares about your needs.
 Ponder on how you might resist divine guidance or help. Do
 you meditate and stay open for messages? Do you turn down
 people’s offers for support? Do you practice gratitude?
 Your life is filled with connection, so make an effort to
 look for it!
 
 
 
 Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) – You have been working
 hard to heal issues of trust. It’s so important to fulfill
 your spiritual goal as an Aquarian – to be able to open
 your heart and bond deeply with others. You won’t loose
 your individuality. In fact, your soul’s unique qualities
 will be enhanced. You could also hear news about a new job,
 or about an exciting challenge at work. Keeping up with
 daily meditation helps balance your emotional growth with
 your “worldly life”.
 
 
 
 Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) – Be grateful for your
 friends. Ponder how many loyal people are around you.
 You’ve done the work to set strong boundaries and rid your
 life of people and situations that drain you. You can feel
 how your emotions are more positive, your energy level is
 higher and your intuition is stronger. Take steps to open up
 even more by voicing your love for those who are devoted to
 you and are on the same spiritual path. Keep up the good
 work of being loving, yet clear and direct.
 


 Aries (March 21 – April 19) – Take your time making
 decisions and drawing conclusions. The Universe wants you to
 slow down your mind, and discover your intuition through
 meditation and centering. In this way, you won’t take
 actions or say things you regret. Spirituality is about
 letting go of the ego. As an Aries, your ego is impatient
 – but your intuition will show you what moves to make,
 gracefully, at the precise time. You’ll get along better
 with co-workers and have more serenity in relationships,
 too.
 
 
 
 Taurus (April 20 – May 20) – You’re loyal and will
 examine whether the people in your life share your spiritual
 beliefs and values. You need to live your truth and not be
 shy about revealing how you’re changing and growing. Have
 the faith and courage to let go of situations that aren’t
 evolving. The Universe will fill your life with happier,
 more harmonious circumstances if you let go of what isn’t
 serving you anymore.
 
 
 
 Gemini (May 21 – June 20) – This is a time of
 expansion, change and exciting possibilities . . . but how
 grounded are you?  Resist the temptation to escape your
 present circumstances and race toward the future. The more
 stable and centered you are, the better your chances of
 having these changes be lasting and truly right for you.
 It’s important that people see you with integrity, so
 meditate before leaping ahead. Complete the present so you
 don’t have to revisit it later.
 
 
 
 
Cancer (June 21 – July 22) – Open your heart for a new
 relationship, or an emotional renewal in your current
 connection. It’s so important to clear your mind of old
 pain and “what always happens”. The Universe can only
 give you what you can conceptualize. Meditate and visualize
 how you would like to act in a relationship, and how you
 would like to be treated. Strongly feel what perfect love
 feels like for you. Say, “Yes” to these possibilities.
 Forgive the past and don’t let it drag your consciousness
 down!
 
 
 
 Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) – Relax and let divine
 abundance flow into your life. Whether you want changes in
 finances, relationships, health or family, stop trying to
 force results. Let go of the consciousness of struggle.
 Trust that the Universe wants to supply your needs. Also
 learn to accept help from others as a way of opening a
 channel to receive everything you’re looking for. Remember
 that you are loved!
 
 
 
 
Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) – Be your authentic self no
 matter what! It’s easy for you to slip into
 people-pleasing and compromising your integrity in
 relationships. Have the courage to shine the unique light of
 your soul. Certain people will exit your life, since
 you’re not being “nice” anymore (which means they
 can’t take advantage of you). Stay true to yourself and
 you’ll attract new people who love your clarity and
 personal power!
