HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, October 10, 2022. Coming off the intensity of Sunday’s full moon, many of us may be looking for a chance to regroup. Luckily, today provides us that opportunity, encouraging us to slow down and find our footing. Spending time doing something enjoyable or focusing on easier tasks for the day is encouraged, especially as there could be some lingering tension in the air. With relationships also being spotlighted today, there might be something painful or difficult to confront. However, the good news is that healing and growth are possible if we’re willing to do the work to get there.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19): You may be unwilling to compromise with someone today. However, a win-win resolution is possible. Hear out what they have to say.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20): Your work and responsibilities are important, but be mindful of being consumed by them. Listen to what your body and soul need.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20): Time spent alone doesn’t have to be dull or lonely. When you’re with yourself you’re in good company. Treat yourself well.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22): You might not do what you do for fame or recognition, but it is nice to be acknowledged. Look around you — people are cheering you on.

LEO (July 23 to Aug 22): Self-doubt could come creeping up today. Trust yourself. You know what you know.

VIRGO (Aug 23 to Sept 22): Be mindful of speaking about yourself in a self-deprecating way. Use words that are affirming.

LIBRA (Sept 23 to Oct 22): It’s just as important to advocate for yourself as much as you do for others. Be empowered.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 to Nov 21): You’re encouraged to give back or give from the heart. However, avoid overextending yourself. You can’t rescue everyone.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 to Dec 21): You might not be happy about having to wait for something you want, however your patience will soon pay off.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 to Jan 19): Don’t be too humble. You’ve earned the recognition or the opportunities you’re receiving.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 to Feb 18): Being able to admit that you don’t know something takes a lot of guts. Being willing to try something new and make mistakes is also pretty brave. Shore up your courage.

PISCES (Feb 19 to March 20): You’re pushed to have a serious and honest conversation with someone. It could be about money or something deeper. Avoid sweeping it under the rug.

FOR TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

You’re patient and persistent. You always get your way, no matter how long it might take. Your inner strength sees you through. Thanks to your charm and great conversation, it’s hard for people not to like you. You’re inspiring and clever. You’re loyal and loving, too. You do your best to help and care for others; you never let anyone down. You’re friendly and easygoing; though, when it comes to your principles you don’t budge. You might weigh out your options but once your mind is set on something, that’s it. This year, your finances will improve.
