WEEK OF OCTOBER 21 TO 27, 2012
Monster head apples
THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: TAURUS, GEMINI, AND CANCER.
ARIES There is a lot of confusion in the air, but you won’t go against the flow. Let your- self be guided by your intuition and you will experience a wave of creativity. TAURUS Time is a rare commodity for many of us. Even though you are skilful in managing your own time, you will have to wait a while for some other people. GEMINI You may very well start dreaming of a vacation in the sun now that the cooler weather has arrived. Redoubling your efforts at work might help you be able to afford a little travel treat. CANCER If you are artistic, you will be able to create a masterpiece this week. On the romantic front, you will start a project that will cement your relationship. LEO Keep an active social life if you want to stay close to your friends. The idea of selling or buying a property is tickling your mind. VIRGO Even though you have to devote more time to a project than you’d planned to, in the end you will feel really proud of yourself. Enjoy the sense of having done your duty. LIBRA You are proud of your appearance in gen- eral, but buying some new clothes or sprucing yourself up in some other way will raise your self-esteem. SCORPIO If you’re expecting visitors this week, you will be tempted to clean the house thor- oughly. This won’t be a bad thing, as you will get rid of a lot of clutter by throwing out some useless things. SAGITTARIUS Your comings and goings will be rife with complications this week. You are likely to experience some frustration in communi- cating with people; perhaps you will have to wait a long time for someone to return your call. CAPRICORN You might be called on to put in a few hours of overtime at work. You are look- ing forward to your next paycheque, even though your new schedule doesn’t please your loved ones. AQUARIUS You experience some disappointment when starting a new job or a large-scale project. With a bit of patience and some serious dis- cussions you’ll be pleased with the results. PISCES After working diligently at the office you need to take a break. Try to think about yourself now. An outing or even a short trip will help you to recharge your batteries.
