Horoscope: Saturday, Sep 19

Someone expects you to follow their lead and if you are smart you will put your pride to one side and do what they ask of you. The last thing you need now is more confrontation. It won’t hurt to let them call the shots just this once.

You may want to splash out on something costly but before you do you must ask yourself if you can afford it. Something will happen later in the week that may require you to come up with a large amount of cash quickly. Don’t leave yourself short.

You may be feeling a bit reserved today, Taurus, especially when it comes to issues involving love and romance. Follow your instincts and know that your hesitation isn't unfounded. Sometimes it's good to slow down and question the road you're on. Just don't doubt yourself to the point that you become too frustrated that you can't take the next big step forward.

Today’s full moon could make life more difficult than usual but because it falls in the sympathetic sign of Libra it won’t be as harsh on you as it is on others. With that news is mind, be ready to help loved ones and friends if they are struggling.

Keep your mind open to any and all possibilities today, Gemini. It's likely that you'll encounter someone who imparts valuable information. You may not realize right away just how important this information is, but it could have a dramatic impact on your life. Be prepared for anything. This is likely to be a most interesting day.

Your mind may be full of good ideas but how many of them are going to be useful to you? Your mistake in recent weeks has been to spend too much time making detailed plans and not enough time actually doing the work. That must now change.

You're visionary and progressive today, Cancer, despite what people may say about your tendency to be conservative. You could easily come up with an effective way to help people. For some reason, practical problems are easy for you to solve. Don't pay any attention to the idle and ineffective chatter of intellectuals.

If a friend points out where you have been going wrong today don’t get angry with them – thank them. It may be embarrassing to realize you have been behaving like an amateur but it would be even more embarrassing if a stranger told you.

A personal vendetta of some kind must be put behind you once and for all. You may not want to compromise on a matter of principle but on this occasion it is the only thing that will work. Forgive and forget and move on together.

You need to pay much more attention to your resources. For too long you have drifted along not worrying too much about where the money comes from, and even less about where it goes to, but that will soon need to change. Earn more and spend less!

Your home could be a gloomy place today, Libra. A member of the household is likely to be away, and this person's presence is apt to be very sorely missed. The only thing you can do under the circumstances is make sure everyone keeps busy until the absent one returns. One way to distract the family is to get them to clean up the house in anticipation of a warm welcome!

Don’t just sit back and let things happen – get out into the world and make them happen. The Sun leaves the career area of your chart on Thursday, so use the next 48 hours to push ahead on the work front. It’s impossible to be too ambitious.

Something you have been trying to change for ages can now be dealt with, thanks to the recent full moon in your sign. Make it your business today, tomorrow and over the weekend to replace something negative in your life with something positive.

A new and exciting potential love relationship could pop into your life today, Sagittarius. This is apt to be the kind of instant attraction that sets your nerves tingling and your blood boiling! Whether or not you decide to pursue this attraction, of course, depends on your situation, but whatever you decide, you're likely to enjoy feeling the thrill of it today. Therefore, make sure you look your best when you go out! You'll be glad you did.

You can afford to be generous over the next few days, especially when dealing with people who, for whatever reason, find it hard to share in the things that come to you as if by right. Enjoy your good fortune — and spread it around.

Issues regarding freedom are apt to come up today in more ways than one, Aquarius. These issues could be connected with opportunities for adventure and travel. Although you initially want to dive into this promised freedom, take time to reflect on what you need in your current situation before making any final decision. Don't forget the other people in your life and how such actions might affect them and your relationships.

You will be in a carefree mood today and over the weekend. Whatever worries you have will fade away quickly and you will be back to your outgoing and optimistic best. Spread your good cheer around. The world needs your smile.

Don’t take minor disputes too seriously today. Some of the people you have to deal with are feeling a bit harassed and may try to take out their frustrations on you. That’s unfortunate but don’t risk making matters worse by overreacting.
