Libra 2004


Sept. 23-Oct. 22

Saturn stays in your career sector until mid-2005, forging a pushy bond, ensuring that you will launch into action. Not the time to rest on your laurels but for applying strong effort in achieving your goals. This can be rather exciting in terms of the potential opportunities, travel, promotions and a chance to prove yourself. On a private level this can be a tumultuous year as you strive toward gaining emotional and financial security perhaps isolated from your normal support structures. It is important to maintain open, honest communication even over distances. Changes at home or with home are also possible. Routines are out the window from here on out, stay flexible with the changing agendas.

Broadening horizons perhaps through work. Exploring new cultures, languages, philosophies, dogmas and religions enriches your life. There is a strong yearning to understand life's complexities, which can lead to serious studies. Your perspectives and convictions change as you become more exposed to the thoughts and ideas of others. It is important to cease control over your health and well-being this year. Work and routines are continuously changing, your unique approach makes increases your demand. It is nice to be wanted, the "why me" eludes you at times. Innovate your schedule, recreate your job and enjoy the variety. Keep your schedule balanced with adequate leisure time - don't burn the candle at both ends.
