Horoscope for Monday, Oct. 3, 2022

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or important decisions after 10:30 p.m. Chicago time. The moon is in Capricorn.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Teamwork is favored this week. However, it’s important to know that with both the sun and Mercury opposite your sign, you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. This won’t be difficult because this week, you have an uncanny ability to see what’s going on in your relationships.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a great day to work with others. In particular, cooperation with coworkers will be excellent, which means you will get a lot done. (People are friendly and supportive.) You might do something to make your workstation look or feel more attractive.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You are open to all kinds of playful options today! If you work in a creative field, like the arts or the entertainment world, you’ll be productive and full of original ideas. This is also a great day to deal with sports and fun activities with kids. Issues at home that have been dragging on will finally get the green light.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You are a nester. Your home is important to you. Today, you will work in conjunction with others, perhaps family members or friends, to make improvements at home, especially redecorating or making something look more attractive. Do what you can!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a great day to schmooze, as well as work with daily contacts, siblings, neighbors and relatives. This is because your interaction with others will be productive. In part, this is because you are charming and diplomatic. You appreciate the input of others.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

This will be a productive week for you because it’s easy to get the cooperation of others. Financial issues will go well because you can attract money to you now. (Every little bit helps.) The other bit of good news is that Mercury retrograde (currently in your sign) is over. Glory hallelujah!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This will be a powerful week for you because everyone will find it easier to be productive because cooperation is more readily available. (This makes a big difference.) However, you really have the edge because the sun and fair Venus are in your sign. You’re in charge!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Even though you might work from behind the scenes or in a solitary way, you will get a lot done because the support you need from others will be forthcoming. Admittedly, disputes about shared property, taxes, debt and inheritances might be an issue. Fear not; you can handle this.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

All your affairs will fall into place much better from here on because Mercury is no longer retrograde at the top of your chart. This means discussions with bosses, parents and authority figures will yield results, and things will go forward more easily. Yay!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a good day to make travel plans or to explore opportunities to get training or further education. Dealings with foreign countries and people from other cultures will be successful. You look good in the eyes of others, which is why you will get results.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Travel for pleasure still appeals to you. Meanwhile, your dealings with red-tape issues related to shared property, inheritances and insurance matters will flow more easily because Mercury retrograde is over. (Whew!) Count on the support of others if you need it.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is an excellent day for important discussions with partners and close friends. You’ll be pleased with the cooperation of others or offers to help. Because of increased chaos and activity on the home front, you welcome this!
