22 MIDWEEK SEPTEMBER 8, 2021
RELEASE DATE—Sunday, September 5, 2021 RELEASE DATE—Sunday, September 5, 2021
BY MADAM LICHTENSTEIN
Our energies peak at different times and places this week. If you have a particular goal in mind, set your course directly toward it and go, go, go!
VIRGO (AUGUST24-SEPTEMBER23)
Virgos can maximize their earning capabilities now as they turn consider- able energy to learning more about their finances. What do you want to achieve? Where do you want to be in a few years? Find out as you research and ask advice. Also, take a close look at what you spend and how you spend it. Do you really need all that stuff?
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER24-OCTOBER23)
There is nothing you can’t achieve and no one you can’t impress now, Libra. Everything that you have been planning can now be implemented. Find the right time and the right group of people, and see how much you can achieve and how far you can go. No matter what, you will be in a very different place in a few months than you were in the previous few months.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER24-NOVEMBER22)
The sense you are getting from the cosmos is that there is much more that you can do to achieve a more calm and centered existence. But you will have to meditate on this, Scorpio. Going to the beach and listening to the waves may help, but it could also be any other place you choose. Try to lower your stress and enjoy the beauty of life.
SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER23-DECEMBER22)
This is a great time to expand your social circle by getting involved in new ventures. Sticking to the familiar will not get you to where you want and need to go, Sagittarius. Why not spice up your life by meeting different and unusual people whose interests can spark your creativity? Give yourself a fresh restart.
CAPRICORN (DECEMBER23-JANUARY20)
You are the one to know, Capricorn. Others will seem to gravitate to
you and ask your advice on a range of subjects. Your wisdom, gathered through years of valuable experience, will serve you and others well now. Use what you know to impress who you know, and take yourself to the next important level in your life’s path.
AQUARIUS (JANUARY21-FEBRUARY19)
There might be an opportunity to travel to a new and exciting location now, Aquarius. Are you up for that? If you are, carefully plan what you want to do and how you will best do it. If you prefer to stay closer to home, find a way to experience adventure that feels safer to you. Maybe try virtual reality. You never know how much you might enjoy that.
PISCES (FEBRUARY20-MARCH20)
This may be a time of greater intensity in general in your life, whether it is in love, finances or mental acuity. See where you can mine your best tal- ents, Pisces, and set your attention to maximizing all of the possibilities.
It may be a little more stressful for you, but somehow you really enjoy it. You can get charged without getting shocked.
ARIES (MARCH21-APRIL20)
There is nothing as fulfilling for you as knowing that you are doing all you can to improve and expand your personal connections, whether for business or pleasure. If you have been feeling a little more isolated than usual, Aries, resolve to do what you need to do to get off your couch and reach out to others any way you can — whether in person or virtually.
TAURUS (APRIL 21-MAY 21)
This is a great time to reassess your overall health and diet regimen with an eye toward rejuvenation. Taureans can sometimes become too comfortable. Now, a burst of energy will catapult you into a new frame of mind to get yourself on a nutritious and revitalizing track. Before you know it, you will always be able to muster greater reserves of oomph.
GEMINI (MAY22-JUNE21)
Planning and launching festivities will require a bit more coordination than you expect, but you are well up to the task, Gemini. Find new ways to have fun and new folks to have fun with. Not only will you find more joy in life overall, but you will also be inspired to break out into unexplored territories of creativity. Create your masterpiece!
CANCER (JUNE22-JULY23)
Cancers can be intensely private, and this week is no exception. You are able to build on your sense of security and give yourself greater confi- dence as time goes on. Maybe there are things around the house that you can do to make your surroundings more comfortable? Maybe you will consider a new move? Whatever you do, do it to your specifications.
LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Consider becoming involved in a range of possible reunions now, Leo, from school or work or other long-ago experiences. There may be people from your past with whom you would like to reconnect. Reaching out to them could be fun, illuminating and maybe a bit surprising.
