October View all areas of partnerships in your life. It’s time to be conscious of how your choices affect you, be they people, thoughts, or food. Choose only that which is mutually uplifting and supportive. Weed out the negatives. Delays mean something is working behind the scenes, or that you need to gather more information. Check out the little details, for they can be the missing links. As you do your part, life will do its part, and you can have a month filled with innovative ideas and possibilities, including changing relationships. Translate momentary flashes of inspiration into something understandable...if things seem dull, recognize it is a momentary lull before the next wave of activity.

2 – September Focus in on quality of choices. There are undercurrents at work that require looking at situations with your intuitive eyes, not through logic. Things may not be what they appear to be. Take stock of your feelings. How do you feel after eating certain foods? After being with a particular person? When getting caught in negative self-talk? Something is germinating right now. Do your part by making sure you take care of the little details. Timing is important. As you incubate positive thinking know that life is doing its part. Something is getting ready to be birthed. Your attitude creates the environment to which it is born, so make it your best!

October Focus is on creative self-expression, including the birth of a project, child, romance, or any other endeavor that requires harnessing your imagination. It can also open you to emotional issues related to children or yourself as a child. Be more detached while retaining a loving presence. Recognize that everyone has to face consequences for their own actions. There are possibilities opening. So be aware that while the limelight is on...you have amazing powers of attraction and ability to motivate and inspire others, use it! Light-heartedness makes everything more joyous, so adopt a playful attitude and enjoy yourself.

3 – September the focus is on creativity, imagination, playful encounters, fairy tale endings, and emotional outbursts. This is a month and year of feelings. The key is to channel them into outlets that beautify your life and stimulate your creativity. Be aware of those in your life who are married to their drama and trauma, and don’t be swept under by their hysterics. Life is offering you a stage this year. If you let others pull you off because of their emotional issues, you lose the power of attraction. You have an ability to attract everything you need right now. You can inspire and motivate. Allow the joyous elements to be your companions, and just watch where they take you!

October you feel a pull toward practicality after two emotional years. It’s time to look at the foundations in your life. Are they sturdy or weak? Where do you need to re-work an old issue or recognize outworn patterns of behavior or response that keeps you locked in limitation? By seeing things from a larger perspective, you can alter the way you interact with a situation or individual. As you do this, you make breakthroughs that lead to transformed relationships. Push through old habits. Be willing to risk more, and you may find yourself amazed at the results.

4 – September The focus is on practicality. You will want to solidify or protect the structures in your life that are important. It is time to be aware of what has to be re-done or built anew. You have the strength and stamina to achieve a great deal, so now it’s time to look at the blueprint and get busy making sure you are constructing the future you really want. Issues may arise that play on your fears, and you have an opportunity to release a limiting pattern of behavior. By pushing a little harder you can make breakthroughs in your awareness. You may leap into a transformed life and wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. Fear debilitates. Being open to possibilities liberates. It’s your choice.

October Something needs to undergo alteration, and new information may come to light showing where and how the changes need to take place. This can be a time of expansion if you have been stuck, or it can be unexpected shifts that require adaptability and flexibility in the face of uncertainty. Be aware of your motivation in all transactions. Read the fine print in legal documents and avoid the tendency to control others. Be open to possibilities, but discerning. It can be the onset of a very fulfilling time for you, including connections with new ideas, new people, and new places.

5 – September Change is afoot. You may free yourself from a constraint, or travel to a new locale. Variety, versatility, and need for discernment are all part of the month and year. Too many irons in the fire cause discontent, moodiness and criticism of others. Your nervous system is revved up, so get foods rich in Vitamin B plus adequate exercise. Pay attention to the rest factor, for under this influence it’s hard to just go slow, but the body benefits from taking time out. Read the fine print in all contract agreements...get what you are paying for. Be aware of those who may try to use you as a pawn in their "game." Your protection is in your own motivation. Make sure it’s clear. Use good judgement and this can be a month filled with adventure.

October calls you to family matters or to be aware of what you want and need in your relationships as well as what others require from you. It’s a good month for paying attention to your health and doing things that are supportive of your body. You have the capacity of being a teacher/healer for others regardless of what you do for a living. You may have strong feelings about what is right and wrong, and feel upset if others don’t adapt to that belief system. The key to this month is opening your heart with love to those close to you and recognizing that there are many different viewpoints. As you accept others as they are rather than the way you want them to be (and visa versa), you may experience tokens of appreciation, and unanticipated gifts. Love, forgiveness and compassion make for a very fulfilling month!

6 – September focus is on matters of the heart. Where do you feel fulfilled and enriched, and where are you doing/giving out of a sense of duty/obligation? It’s time to look at all areas of your life and be aware where joy in service enhances your life, and where you hold resentment. The way you feel about your life affects your health, so if there are any afflictions, root out the causes, both physical and emotional. If you are in to the fix-it syndrome, you may have to let other people take responsibility for themselves, recognizing that we each have to learn through our own trial and errors. If you find yourself holding rigid expectations of what others should do/be, these also have to be released. And if others are holding expectations of you that feel burdensome, let them know it is inappropriate. The key to this year/month is to live life lovingly. As you do, you experience great abundance and appreciation.

October focuses on your health and well-being. Everything has been about others this year. Now it’s time to focus on the deeper aspects of yourself. Who are you? Why are you here? What is the purpose of your life? As you take time to enjoy nature and to rest and recharge your batteries, you may feel the stirring of insights that will allow you to gain greater self-knowledge and/or understanding of specialized areas of interest. You may re-meet someone from your past with whom you have unfinished business, or someone new who feels very familiar. There is an element of destiny this month, so take time for yourself and deeper awareness...appreciate what life has in store.

7 – September slow down, smell the flowers, and take time for yourself, or investigate a special area of interest. If there are health issues, time spent going into the deeper meaning of the particular issue is helpful. Ask yourself questions that confront your life purpose. What is it that you need to do with your life that is more meaningful? Healing occurs when defenses and pretenses are dropped. If there are areas of misconception, life will bring in the missiles that crumble your defenses. Where you have based your self-concept on truth, you will feel supported and rewarded by life. There may be a relationship from the past that re-emerges, or you may meet someone significant with whom you have a feeling of "destiny." The month and year calls for deepening; going beyond self into Self. As you come to know who you really are more intimately, you tap into a rich reservoir of knowledge, and share in ways that benefit us all.

October focuses on integration. It’s time to balance out what you’ve learned this year and direct the focus of your intention with stewardship and good management skills. You may receive rewards or recognition for past effort, and on the other hand bills may now come due that cannot be put off. Deal with everything to the best of your present ability, and as you take care of things when they arise, you are creating an invisible account that will hold you in good stead later. See your life as a system of energy and determine where you give too much, and where not enough. Find your way to flow and bring harmony into everything you do. Then you can point to this time as ultimately rewarding.

8 – September focus is on integrating everything you’ve experienced this year. See yourself as a system of energy. Where are you in alignment and harmony, and where is there imbalance? As you pull the strands together by directing your energy, you begin to feel the magnitude of your own capabilities. You see that you have power over your reactions to what happens in your life and that you influence outcome through your actions. When you let your emotions throw you off center, you see the results. When you flow with circumstances and use them to your advantage, you benefit by the wisdom of your actions. It’s a great time for recognizing how actions/reactions that have been well thought out serve you. Organize all areas of your life with this in mind and watch how things begin to come to fruition. As you determine how best to orchestrate your interaction with life, you create a beautiful symphony that enriches everyone.

October take care of things that require completion. It is time to sign papers, clear out closets, take care of issues from the past, and let go of things that no longer serve you. Next year will be the completion of a cycle, so now is a good time to think about where closure is required. What are the best ways to finalize aspects of your life that have come to fruition, and how can you best relinquish what doesn’t work so you can move into a more dynamic future? Philanthropic endeavors are given support now while possessive attitudes or small mindedness leads to disappointment. Life asks you to focus on that for which to be grateful, and as you do, more good comes.

9 – September focuses on something coming to term. As you believe that all things work for a greatest good, you adopt an attitude that is larger than life and inspires those around you. You can see the bigger picture and provide avenues for others to achieve more good in their own lives. All that you do to enhance life is supported. When you become caught in pettiness or attached to limitation, you may have to experience the illusion of loss. Life is pushing you to clear what is no longer valid in your life so that it can bring new opportunities next year that are fulfilling and expanding. When you feel gratitude for everything you have and are, life seems to overflow with abundance. When you resent your situation, you have more to be resentful about. The law of non-attachment is at work, and as you see each circumstance as a gift and opportunity, the more good will come out of whatever you are dealing with in the moment.

October offers a peek into possibilities. It is time for determination, stamina and courageous action. Network with others. Throw out ideas and contact anyone who you feel may be of benefit in the future. As you scatter seeds, some will take hold and begin to bear fruit next year. Your individuality and personal way of doing things is important. Operate from higher mind rather than willful or impulsive action and you will see doors open. A new focus may present itself as you go through the final months of this year of completion. Grasp opportunities and step into your own potential. It can be the beginning of something great!
