Horoscope: Tuesday, Sep 9

You might find yourself thinking about a possible vacation. You've worked hard during the last few months and feel you deserve a break. This year you're likely to want to do something different from the norm, perhaps travel to a foreign land associated with a great spiritual tradition. You should feel closer to your loved ones and optimistic about the future. Enjoy!

You might surprise a few people with your words and actions, which could seem out of character for you, Taurus. Don't be surprised if you don't think or act like your normal self. There is a streak of the oddball inside you that wants to have its day in the spotlight. Let that part of you shine through by wearing your plaid pants with a polka dot shirt and furry orange hat. Wear bright, expressive colors that show off your willingness to stand out in a crowd.

Some people tend to make mountains out of molehills. Currently, you're likely to feel as though you're surrounded by people who exaggerate problems. You, on the other hand, have a loftier perspective. You're a visionary who can foresee future social trends. This gift would serve you well as a political speechwriter, should you want to take on that sort of job.

Someone you can usually trust seems to be giving you a slanted version of what’s been going on and you must make it your number one aim to find out the truth. If you act on misleading information the consequences could be disastrous.

Stop buzzing around trying to finish all those tasks that are still far from done – they are no longer worth the time or the effort. The less you do today the more new things you will be able to start tomorrow and later in the week.

You are advised to keep your more revolutionary thoughts to yourself today because not everyone will be impressed by your passion for change. Make allowances for those who find it difficult to embrace ideas that are clearly ahead of their time.

Don’t worry if your cashflow situation is not as healthy as you would like it to be. Now that Mercury, planet of the mind, has moved into the money area of your chart you can find ways to make ends meet again, and maybe even turn a profit!

Be careful what you say this week as some of the people you interact with will be touchy to say the least. Creatively and romantically this is a good time for you but you still need to engage your brain first before using your vocals chords.

There seems to be an added urgency to your activities at the moment, no doubt caused by the approaching full moon. Something is prompting you to get a move on and make your mark before the opportunity passes and is gone for good. So get going!

There has rarely been a better time to push yourself forward and show those around you, at home and at work, what you are capable of. Be assertive but in a way that does not antagonize people. Even if you’re the boss you should also be a friend.

You need to be careful how much you spend over the next few days, because if you go over the top you will regret it for a long time to come. Hidden costs are about to reveal themselves, so don’t waste your resources and leave yourself short.

Don't be surprised if you leap out of bed with a spark of inspiration that wasn't there last night, Aquarius. Let your dreams linger a bit before you face the world. This flash of genius is likely to strike quickly and unexpectedly, so keep an eye out for it, but don't consider it something that you can plan on or force into happening.

The approaching full moon will make it abundantly clear that you need to make some pretty big changes in your life. A plan or project you once had high hopes for is no longer worth the time or the effort. Ditch it and move on to something better.

It’s time to get serious about your money situation. For too long you have been happy to take what you were given but now you must be more dynamic. Make sure those who control the purse strings know that you want a new deal – right now!
