Aries
Love doesn't always mean knocking your intended over the head with a blunt instrument, but expect your primal urges to be in more boisterous bloom than ever this month, especially on the 11th. Venus and Mars shine brightly in your house of romance, making you more than merely susceptible to Cupid's arrow. Mercury goes retrograde on the 24th, also in elegant Libra, to give you time for tending to the details of looking irresistible, and could revive a relationship that evokes fond memories of the past. Sexy dressing, romantic settings and sweet gestures such as flowers, poetry and fine wine will be in the picture. After that, the sun moves on in, joining Mars and inciting some highly desirable, cuddly cutie to get the hint. If you're already attached, even the most mundane of relationships can become pleasantly unpredictable. You can re-kindle the flame of passion with a mid-month getaway. |

Taurus
Movement will be the theme of your month, so take stock of your body's abilities and make some definite moves toward self-improvement. Your yen for sensual pleasure doesn't always jibe with the kind of physical rigor you must maintain to get into or stay in shape, so you need a new strategy. Use Mars' encouraging presence in your house of health and energy to push you toward more pleasurable-yet-active ways of bettering your body. Take a brisk walk in the cooling air with the one you love, or try bicycling in the countryside to get yourself get re-connected to the earth. The muscles you tone on the outside can also improve your inner health right in time to fight off the annoying bugs that emerge during cold and flu season. The benefits of healthy eating and exercise will also help you fend off the irritating rants of a cantankerous co-worker. |

Gemini
Are you fed up waiting for career news that reflects what a great asset you truly are? Your frustration could well come to an end when the full moon delivers exciting announcements this month. From the 8th-the 22nd, you can expect a glut of great activities that allow you to display all your talents. Closer to the 15th, the official date of the full moon, you can expect to get rock-solid indications that you're getting noticed. Big business deals, including promotions, raises and big sales, can be yours. If you're not so work oriented, maybe this means you make your way into a desirable social circle. Expect a romance or partnership that's been driving you mad to come unstuck after the 8th. For better or worse, you'll be grateful to get definite answers. A commitment to the right person could allow you to hold on to the freedom you want, too. |

Cancer
Romance roars forward this month, as Jupiter pulls out of an indecisive retrograde on the 8th to transform all those "maybe" answers to one, most definite Y E S! You could make a major commitment now, the kind that delivers your heart's desire through being with the best person you've ever come to know. If you're already taken care of in the love department, devote at least one evening to celebrating your relationship, or give thanks for an abundance of friends and business contacts. Sounds like you should be throwing a bash of some sort, doesn't it? The new moon on the 29th is the perfect time for opening your home to people you want to dance and share your happiness with. If you so decide, this could also be a great opportunity to make a real estate-related move. New living arrangements are possible around the 4th and the 18th. |

Leo
Your sexual appetites will be activated in ways most people only dream about when electrically stimulating planet Uranus touches off your desires this month. This is a time when literally anything can happen, from a sudden rush of passion over a brand new love to an uncontrollable urge to devour your long-time lover that winds up culminating on the kitchen table! The key to your maximum sexual enjoyment is giving into spontaneous, if naughty, thoughts. Lascivious surprises around the 12th and 15th will titillate and satisfy. If for some reason you're in a dry period, this is an excellent time to ask yourself what you would do if you wanted to liven up your sex life. Sudden revelations about your friends' intimate secrets, as well as some of your own, could become a hot topic around the 7th and the 27th; so put together a creative, air-tight plan for damage control. |

Virgo
It's your birthday month, so start celebrating! Through the 21st, the sun's warmth permeating your sign will permit you to exude the kind of warmth that attracts people to you like mesmerized moths to the light. While you revel in being bathed in the support of friends, family and a lover or two you may also try to get people to go along with your productivity-minded suggestions. It can be difficult to get co-workers to do much of anything purposeful, with Neptune languishing away in retrograde motion in your house of work and efficiency. Don't lose faith. You know you won't give up until people see how much better your ways are! Meanwhile, Mercury, Venus and Mars will help you take your original thoughts to the bank. Successful communication of your unique knowledge and deployment of your formidable skill set will earn praise, particularly around the 17th, 18th and 19th. |

Libra
Spring into action after the 8th. Pluto's emergence from retrograde, only hours after Jupiter's similar step forward, will bring a refreshing breeze that carries news concerning your home and family. Expect positive effects on your poise and self-assurance. Mercury's lined up to give you extra time for thinking through who you want to be and what you want to contribute to the world. When it goes retrograde on the 24th, plan to work through any possible fears that have kept you from speaking your mind. A desire to be universally loved could be the culprit that's preventing you from speaking truth in your relationships. Setting boundaries that protect you from the shortcomings of others is a healthy alternative you surely should consider. An honest assessment of your recent past will spell out what to do. Negotiations held on the 12th, 17th and 23rd are almost sure to go your way. |

Scorpio
Pay attention to the sweet message of voluptuous Venus, as she gets set to occupy your sign later in the month. You may notice that administering small doses of kindness is the best way to get what you want. Don't stoop to saccharine-ish levels of accommodation, but do administer that extra bit of TLC that'll push performances way beyond expectations, both at work and in your personal life. You know how to do this, but often your impatience with the mediocre can lead you to come off as demanding and dismissive rather than accepting and encouraging. Avoid making too many promises on the 9th, but demonstrate your affection on the 17th and the 24th. Venus' sultry influence will encourage you to pour on the sexy, which could send potential partners into delirious levels of susceptibility to your every whim. Oh, dear. You'll just have to get all your wishes granted! |

Sagittarius
There are only 30 days in September, so you'll need to get started right away on pushing through your many projects. You mightn't have a natural knack for commanding attention, but when Pluto comes out of hiding on the 8th, your powerplay mojo will burst out of its humble and unassuming hiding place. Make the most of this by choosing an assertive path toward success. If you play this right, you'll prove how much you've learned about using your spoton perceptions for the greater good of all concerned. Mars in Libra helps you remain conscious of the needs of others, and encourages you to fight for people whose voices are less audible and articulate than yours. Your mate (or date) will admire your virtue, and want to celebrate by kissing you a million times, especially on the 20th. Plan a celebration that fetes your accomplishments and challenges your bedroom prowess. |

Capricorn
Not ready to dive into the frenzy of futility that is your usual fall schedule? Get away for awhile. Extra energy in the eager sign of Virgo through the 22nd will help you choose the perfect place for an offpeak holiday. The highlands of Scotland or the Wild West of America could provide the view one gets while soaring with eagles. A business minded trip becomes less tedious when it lands you somewhere warm and welcoming. Either way, you win by avoiding the usual annoying deluge! If you can't leave town, get immersed in some important training. Saturn's orderly discipline slaps you into an appropriately receptive state, and helps you deal with details such as cost cutting and re structuring of work schedules. Your reward for bursting out of a rut could be a much welcomed meeting with occupational success or romantic magic. Best dates for that are the 16th and the 23rd. |

Aquarius
Of all the many gifts you possess, your vision of a world the way that it ought to be is probably the most admirable. Neptune has been fueling your ideas over the last several years, and now you may notice that you begin to talk more about the elaborate plans you hold in your head. As this mysterious planet gets positive reinforcement from its fellow travelers, you'll feel more confident expressing your creativity, spirituality and deep love for that one person you were destined to share your life with. On the 17th, your love of pure knowledge will influence a decision you make and you could find yourself taking in information or teaching pupils of your own. Speak to someone about travel plans or express your poetic yearnings on the 19th. On the 21st, take action that will push a pet dream of yours just a smidgen closer to reality. |

Pisces
Saturn and Jupiter will restore order and clarity to your relationship life on the 3rd and 4th. Being a true believer in unconditional love, you'll be gratified to discover you've made good decisions and put your heart in the right place. If you've got the friend and/or lover of your choice singled out, you can enjoy the immense pleasure of sensing Venus, Mars and Mercury shine for you as you express your intimate desires both verbally and physically. Overwhelming sexual passion makes the 11th an ideal day to take off and nest with your love. The new moon on the 29th enables you to make a new start, resolving to be totally present for the lucky ones who earn your romantic or platonic attention. Remove the burden of hiding secrets and putting up a facade as you jump into the arms of those who accept and love who you are. |
