Sagittarius

Sagittarius (Ruling Planet: Jupiter; Element: Fire) Sagittarians are crazy, fun, and wild. You’re a generous friend, and always try to be straightforward. The Archer is an intellectual, passionate about philosophy and travel. But with this passionate energy, and your constant need for independence, comes a carelessness typical of most fire signs. When honest, you tend to be tactless. When ambitious, you can be impatient and inconsistent. And you are prone to taking things for granted.

With Venus in your sign and a full moon that lights up your love sector, the start of October promotes cute n’ affectionate vibes and a big decision about a relationship. Plus with Mercury in Libra on October 7th, you’ll feel chattier, and do your best work amongst a group of original thinkers. Make your love life a priority while you’re feeling indulgent and romantic, because when Scorpio enters the Sun and Mercury on the 22nd and 24th, respectively, spending time alone is gonna seem a lot more alluring. Social interactions will drain you, and you might have trouble expressing yourself, but this is a good time to go with your gut. Just wait until after the new moon in Scorpio on the 30th to quietly pursue an opportunity, romantic or otherwise.

Your Trax: With #relationshipgoals on the mind this month, consider gaining some positive inspiration about the human connection by listening to some supergroups. The June release from Case/Veirs/Lang (i.e. Neko Case, k.d. lang, and Laura Veirs) hit the nail on the head. Similarly, Jenny Lewis, Tennessee Thomas, and Erika Spring produced amazing work this summer as NAF (Nice As Fuck). Go for Our House on the Hill by The Babies or Lykke Li/Miike Snow/Peter Björn & John as LIV singing “Wings of Love,” if you’re into more folky/indie-pop stuff.
