Your horoscope for September 16 to 22, 2010
“God is closest to those with broken hearts.”
—Jewish Proverb
Like a spooked horse tracing a fitful path across the sky, a recently discovered asteroid is veering erratically between the orbits of Saturn and Uranus. Strangely, it can change shape and size without warning. An odd little planetoid, to be sure—odd but majestically powerful.
And so, in 1975, it was appropriately named Chiron after the mysterious centaur, the elusive and savagely unpredictable half-man, half-beast of ancient Greek mythology. Unbridled passion: rarely seen and running wild. I have studied this asteroid for most of my life.
Astrologically, this remarkable little orb can show us exactly how deeply we have been wounded by life and how best to heal. No easy lesson, this. At approximately age 50, we must all experience the return of Chiron’s lost innocence, long-denied passions, and hidden memories. Chiron demands complete emotional integration and reveals the essential pathway of self-compassion.
Presently, Chiron is retrograde in the sign of Aquarius. Before November 5, expect to experience visceral dreams and feel deep moments of joy coupled with surprising bouts of sorrow. A complex emotional clearing is taking place and will, throughout much of December, bring long-term relationships back to their original state of love. Those born between 1955 and 1961 will likely undergo profound, life-changing revelations.
Always remember: only fire strengthens steel.
Aries
March 21 - April 20
Image: A seamstress measuring a bolt of cloth.
Message: Defining a pattern. Yesterday’s emotions resurface. Pay particular attention to romantic regrets or repeated social triangles. Some Aries natives will face a mildly ethical dilemma between old and new love relationships. Decide quickly; passions are running high.
Taurus
April 21 - May 20
Image: After midnight, a grove of trees creaking in the wind.
Message: Awakenings. Loved ones hint at significant home improvements. After Saturday, expect others to alter their lives to accommodate the growth of intimacy. Next week, rest and gently discuss future plans with friends or relatives. Your needs will be warmly accepted.
Gemini
May 21 - June 21
Image: A whirlwind of leaves and rose petals.
Message: Fragrant reminders. Over the next eight days, unusual job offers or financial settlements demand decisions. Some Geminis will find that a recently abandoned project returns. Don’t hesitate to accept new duties. Special talents and unique opportunities are obvious to all.
Cancer
June 22 - July 22
Image: At a formal dinner party, two drunken butlers.
Message: A ceremony of errors. Friends or coworkers introduce annoying changes or revised plans. Muddle through. Scattered social ideas and new schedules will not disrupt long-term projects. Do, however, thoroughly check lists or invitations. Last-minute mistakes may cause embarrassment.
Leo
July 23 - August 22
Image: A Gypsy princess dancing around a campfire.
Message: Moving with passion. This week, loved ones may be overly confident and unwilling to wait for answers. Some Leos, especially those born between 1962 and 1976, will encounter a shift in business priorities. If so, expect officials to introduce new personnel or rare team projects.
Virgo
August 23 - September 22
Image: Deep in the earth, a crew of busy miners.
Message: Wisdom unearthed. Long-forgotten disappointments influence the attitudes of loved ones. For many Virgos, this is a necessary phase of emotional clearing. Don’t challenge the needs or judgments of others. By mid October, social regrets will permanently fade. Remain patient.
Libra
September 23 - October 23
Image: After school, a gathering of young boys and a bag of marbles.
Message: Playing for keeps. Past accomplishments or original materials attract criticism. Over the next nine days, some Librans will encounter a rare public challenge to their credentials or business authority. Respond cautiously. Your emotional reactions are being closely scrutinized.
Scorpio
October 24 - November 22
Image: Late at night, Batman and Robin playing poker.
Message: Waiting for the call. Don’t let the clouded thinking of others influence your opinions. Loved ones may be working through business delays or complex issues of public reputation. Stay positive and plan new activities. In the coming weeks, social diversity will prove helpful.
Sagittarius
November 23 - December 21
Image: At the bottom of a mineshaft, a small white dove.
Message: Nurturing the peace within. Deepening attractions are a continuing theme. After Sunday, expect loved ones to leave behind romantic doubt and social shyness. Misinformation and vague commitments need to end. Respond honestly to comments or gestures of long-term affection.
Capricorn
December 22 - January 20
Image: At night in a barn, a flock of squabbling geese.
Message: The pecking order. Business power struggles are highly political. If possible, avoid disrupting a quiet workplace atmosphere. Goals will not be revised, so not to worry. Do, however, closely study the reactions of younger colleagues. Diplomacy is vital. Expect fast changes.
Aquarius
January 21 - February 19
Image: A gentle sunrise over a frozen lake.
Message: Inner landscapes. Social loyalties, family plans, or daily schedules may change without warning. Although promising, new commitments will take time. Offer encouragement. After Wednesday, romantic promises may also shift. Wait for obvious signals. All is well.
Pisces
February 20 - March 20
Image: Moments before the music starts, two posing ice skaters.
Message: Waiting to move. Flawed business decisions or workplace errors demand a response. Closely study the comments and reactions of coworkers. Inexperience or poor timing will affect new projects. Ask gently probing questions and stay dedicated to trusted procedures.
