Libra (Sept 23 – Oct 22)

Your home is usually your safe haven, the one place where you can escape from the trials in the rest of the world, however, this has not been the case. During Pluto Retrograde your home life was uprooted and turned upside down. This not only created rifts in your relationship with family members, but it also robbed you of a place to rest and recharge.

Then you can start correcting the things that have torn your family apart.

Scorpio (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Pluto Direct is going to force you to face these difficulties, and it’s not going to be easy. You have two options. You can continue to try to avoid conflict, only to be forced to face it down the road, or you can stand tall and face your troubles head-on. This is the only way to free yourself from its hold on your life.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

It’s a hard lesson to learn, especially considering how long you have been walking down this misguided path. In order to break free from your financial concerns, you need to step up and take responsibility. Create a budget, stick to it and start to build up your savings. The more security you create, the easier it will be to let go of your financial worries and focus, instead, on the things that really matter in this life.

Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

While this time has been hard, it has provided you with an opportunity to rediscover your strength and conviction. Rather than allowing this to tear you down, use this as the stepping stone to something greater.
