Creativity Moon Change

Trying to get attention usually has the opposite effect. But if you have something people need, they’ll come take a look. In Scorpio Season, what people crave is a mystery, which is a funny thing to build, because it’s built by taking things away, concealing them or using them for misdirection. The lunar shift offers plenty of practical magic to the effort.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s hard to say why some people work so well together, but take the gift when it comes. Connections that defy logic or explanation may very well endure the test of time, all the more wonderful for their mystery.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). For whatever you are offering, give them three options. Any more will be overwhelming, and fewer makes them feel limited and controlled. Three will be your number of great persuasion.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You came to life’s buffet, and you filled your own plate. If it’s there, it’s because you wanted to taste it. Even so, you are not obligated. There’s such a thing as having eyes too big for your stomach. Saying “no, thanks” is an option you can exercise at any time.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Statements of judgment start with, “No judgment but…” Statements of offense start with, “No offense but…” Should you hear, “No disrespect…” take that as a cue to walk away before you hear the rest.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Take stock of where you are. It never could have happened had you not stuck with the commitment. Today you’ll feel so grateful as you take your place in a winner’s circle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Are you forgetting something? A birthday, a bill, a casual plan? Whatever it is, catch it before sundown to avoid any headaches later. A quick check-in could save the day.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). “It’s complicated” may be the only honest option to describe any relationship. When interactions are uncomfortable, messy, wonderful, arduous, comforting, tender… let it be a reminder of ordinary human complexity.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Pain distorts the memory. People may recount things that didn’t happen exactly as they recall. Your grace is needed. Give others the benefit of the doubt. You don’t know the weight they carry or the battles they’ve been through.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll dive into projects that fit your schedule, feel right, and seem worth the time and sacrifice they will certainly require to get the result. Don’t think twice about passing on any project that doesn’t fulfill all three requirements.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). No one remembers what happened when everyone played it cool. Life should be memorable. Push yourself to love bigger. When you feel the impulse to be enthusiastic, reveal your heart or be more generous than the situation calls for, do it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). If you had a single wish for your love, it wouldn’t be for fame or riches — although those wouldn’t hurt — but it would be to live in emotional sunshine. Irrational confidence will pay off. The grind gets light. Ordinary days become adventures.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). To make assumptions when we don’t have all the facts is human. You’ll take the superhuman route. You’ll ask thoughtful questions with the tone that makes people want to open up to you; then you’ll seek understanding by listening without judgment.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 26). Your playful spirit makes you a star at work and in your personal life alike. Commanding your talents and creating your desired effect on an audience will give you wings to lift your confidence and career higher. More highlights: You’ll take bold risks with both your money and your heart and say yes to what you really want, even if the odds don’t seem favorable. Taurus and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 13, 49, 2 and 7.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Whatever the role, first lady, senator, secretary of state, presidential candidate, wife, mother or grandmother, Hillary Rodham Clinton is resolute. Clinton was born when both the sun and Venus were in the fixed sign of Scorpio and the moon was in empathetic Pisces. “Do all the good you can, for all the people you can, in all the ways you can, as long as you can.” — Hillary Rodham Clinton
