Libra
Born between: Sep 23rd - Oct 22nd
Convincing and charming are the best characteristics of someone born under the Libra star sign. When they overcome shyness those with the Libra sign are great debaters who will always share credit for their wins.
This rare, second Full Moon in one month will create an emotional culmination with you and a sibling or neighbour. Beliefs are seen as truths and one of you may need to start listening to the other person's beliefs and accept them as their truth even if it's not your own. Read more about the Blue Moon! Inspirational colours are mandarin and platinum. Lucky numbers are 26 and 67.
Why are you dismissing your creative talent? It seems as though you are confused about a creative pursuit or a gamble of some type that has the potential to give you financial reward. By not seeing your abilities clearly, you are thwarting any potential for winning the game today. Opportune colours are almond and russet. Lucky numbers are 33 and 26.
Mercury begins an extended visit to your tenth house of fame, honours and success. During this time you will enjoy an instinctive business sense and acute salesmanship skills that are certain to lead you towards new opportunities in career matters. Use your gut instinct now and you are sure to reap the rewards. Beneficial colours are ochre and jade. Lucky numbers are 17 and 78.
Learning is important to the development of your identity and today there's a philosophical edge to you that longs to collect information about certain belief systems in order to decide which one of them fits with your personality. You want to be part of something bigger than yourself. Powerful colours are dark purple and rich gold. Lucky numbers are 39 and 48.
You may have a serious problem today with in-laws that requires attention. It seems they think they know best while you are not intending one bit to budge on your perceived control of the matter. You are at odds with collecting the details versus digesting the big picture. It could be a stalemate. Harmonious colours are mother of pearl and turquoise. Lucky numbers are 35 and 58.
Today there is a storehouse of faith available to you as your emotions take on a welcome dose of feeling hopeful. Your identity is renewed when you stop fearing your own path and allow the truth to unfold naturally as it always does over time. As a Libran you strive for harmony in all relationships, however, sometimes there must be a storm in order for you to restore balance. Accept this and move on. Propitious colours are turquoise and cherry blossom. Lucky numbers are 21 and 65.
Today you may want to avoid your brothers and sisters as a fight over your mother or another issue of power is likely. Someone wants to confront a problem head on, while someone else prefers to bury their emotions and not admit to anything being wrong at all. There is a strong potential for an argument. It could also have to do with the situation from yesterday. Auspicious colours are mandarin and lemon. Lucky numbers are 31 and 66.
You may have a problem with one of your children or a lover that you don't want to face and today, as Neptune turns retrograde, you will need to stop deceiving yourself. There may be lies, or simply an identity crisis that is happening around you and it's been easier for you to ignore it rather than confront the situation. One of you is not being realistic and somewhere a boundary needs to be drawn. Beneficial colours are grapefruit and aqua. Lucky numbers are 33 and 39.
You have the urge to broaden your spiritual base: however, there seems to be an element of reserve blocking you today. Part of you wants to delve into a new spiritual study while the other part is fearful of what that study might reveal about your most hidden self. Conquer the fear of the unknown and clarity will be your reward. Positive colours are jade and chocolate. Lucky numbers are 11 and 53.
You have a true friend who will help you expand your thoughts and horizons. Whether you meet for lunch, chat on the phone or even via email, you can expect this person to broaden your faith in just about anything today. You realize it's not how many friends you have that matters, but the quality of friendship that's more important. Favourable colours are cornflower blue and lavender. Lucky numbers are 9 and 75.
Today as the Sun enters Gemini, your ninth house of long distance travel and other cultures will be illuminated giving you the urge to explore. Whether you decide to travel to another land physically or simply in your mind, you need to offer your soul a bit of adventure. It's also a great time to learn something new! Expansive colours are bronze and ebony. Lucky numbers are 7 and 1.
Today you will either be perceived as ingenious in your ideas or completely off the wall. An element of telepathic awareness offers you an advantage at work but there's also the danger of you being so sure of yourself that your thoughts flow in an irrational fashion going from a bright idea into a jumble of words that make no sense. Favourable colours are blackcurrant and jasmine. Lucky numbers are 24 and 64.
You are usually one for balance as a Libra however today you feel a deep and emotional competitive spirit having to do with a career matter. You tend to act with such grace and refinement but today it's all claws as you vehemently defend your position and realize how important it is for you to be number one. Advantageous colours are silver and yellow. Lucky numbers are 10 and 2.
Today you enjoy the inspiration a child provides you. There is hope in the future when you look into a child's eyes and today you see the extraordinary power of this hope and optimism to create the world you want. If it is your child, it's a perfect day for creative play together. Creative colours are ivory and mauve. Lucky numbers are 5 and 3.
Your mind and mood are in the mood to be anywhere else but where you are today. There is a restless quality and the fickle desire to be a nomad if only for a day. Travel in your thoughts and in your dreams and indulge in the energy of escape today. Adventurous colours are cream and lavender. Lucky numbers are 9 and 16.
There has never been a better opportunity this year for you to explore something forbidden and reap from it! Your needs for emotional security are high today, but you can heal yourself and others if you're willing to probe the depths of your soul. Face that demon you've been trying to hide from. It's time to see the future by digging yourself out of the past. Great colours are pale peach and tangerine. Lucky numbers are 8 and 18.
Mars enters your opposite sign Aries today, beginning a six week tour of your 7th house of marriage and partnerships. This will provide a wonderful boost if you've been considering initiating a new business partner or taking on a big new client. Now is the time, but opponents will be energised, so prepare for battle! As far as your marriage goes, if there has been trouble recently, expect heated arguments with no holding back. If things are smooth, your partner will be quite energetic and have a strong sex drive. Energetic colours are fire opal and burnished bronze. Lucky numbers are 7 and 8.
Communications are flying fast and furious, as the fiery cosmic trine energises your environment. Legal concerns see a better outcome, especially if connected with your spouse, partner, or significant other. Despite the temptation to let the show roll on, do not relinquish all control, as the potential for delusion (and deception) is present. Keep your mind sharp and remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Auspicious colours are ivory and pink tourmaline. Lucky numbers are 7 and 3.
The second Sunday in May is Mothers Day in many countries of the world. It is the ideal day to get in touch with your mother and to honour the feminine in our daily lives. Although messages of charm and affection are in the air, the underlying potential is one that awakens unpleasant feelings from the past. Do not permit jealousy or anger to spoil an otherwise delightful day. Read more on Mothers Day! Excellent colours are pale grey and rose. Lucky numbers are 7 and 4.
The information coming in can boost your personal image and reputation, Libra. Others look favourably on your accomplishments, as well as your opinions. A successful meshing of ideas and methods advance your social or professional position and may see an offer to become the leading spokesperson of a group. It's an excellent time to launch a writing or communications project, engage in business transactions, or begin a journey. Fortunate colours are ivory and rose. Lucky numbers are 18 and 27.
A warm glow brightens your relationships with important people today and as Mercury the divine messenger enters Gemini, your attention in coming weeks will be caught up in long distance travel, international business or diplomatic endeavours, cultural events, court decisions, higher education, training, foreign languages, religious or political interests, publishing, promotions, or advertising. Busy bee! As icing on the cake, a divine foreigner might just set wheels in motion. Alluring colours are lilac and bronze. Lucky numbers are 9 and 10.
Dreamy romance is in the air today, dear Libra, so put on your gorgeous best and make yourself fittingly enticing. Other people are likely to be quite skittish, flitting from one thing to the other, or trying to pin things down and laying out their power trips. You, however, can float through on a cloud of bliss, strewing flowers left and right. You can express yourself well and should take up the opportunities. Good news is coming. Alluring colours are pale pink and faint lime. Lucky numbers are 5 and 22.
A few obstacles or bumps in the road are distinctly annoying today. Red tape, rules and regulations and obstructive authority figures test your determination and distract you from the main game. Don't be put off, but listen to good advice from those who are older and wiser. Do not defy tradition and authority, but plough steadily on. Romance is in the air and things improve a lot on Friday. Propitious colours are blue sapphire and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 11 and 14.
Venus your life-ruler is still under pressure, but favourable developments are promised in the areas of family finances, mortgages and the like. An inheritance is likely to be sorted out if you are in that position. Clever ideas pop up at work and for those on the prowl, a romantic frisson is possible with someone in the workplace. Keep it short and sweet. Favourable colours are moonstone and witch hazel. Lucky numbers are 4 and 8.
Stay away from situations that threaten your personal and emotional stability today, Libra. In particular avoid romantic entanglements (unless you prefer to live dangerously) and leave financial commitments, especially with connotations of secrecy, for another day. Educational, religious and cultural projects can be set on the right course, if you use your expertise and rely upon experience. Auspicious colours are pale blue and smoky pink. Lucky numbers are 11 and 3.
Venus is keeping a low profile today, but this does not mean you shouldn't enjoy the roller-coaster. After all, she's building up to some fisticuffs with the emotional Moon after midnight. So if you are partying, be ready for something of a power struggle, as the conversation turns to whether skinny is best in the fashion stakes. On the other hand, if you have been plotting and planning, your ideas will find a fabulous fruition after tomorrow's planetary fruitfest. Romance will be risky tonight, but grab it while you can. Auspicious colours are dusky rose and shimmering silver. Lucky numbers are 3 and 9.
Get together with friends and neighbours tonight for a lively exchange of ideas and information. A classy local coffee shop, or gallery would be ideal for the soiree. The atmosphere rings with debate and the process of hammering out your long term plans will be stimulated by opposing views and by those who simply want to blast you with their egos. An intense attraction could prove more than fascinating. Auspicious colours are maroon and amber. Lucky numbers are 3 and 11.
You'll have plenty of valuable ideas today, especially in the field of finance. In fact there will be such an array of good things on offer that you might find it hard to choose between them. It is a good time to form new friendships, especially with people from far, far away or of another culture to your own. Romance is favoured, but a lot will depend on your own attitude and approach. Advantageous colours are primrose yellow and rich ruby. Lucky numbers are 9 and 5.
This is the Wesak Moon, the birth of Buddha, the main festival of the year for Buddhists the world over. It is basically a Moon that brings personal growth. The Full Moon occurs across your financial axis, so there will probably be some conflict over monetary matters, or a power struggle of some kind, one which may well see a revaluing of your personal priorities. Some bright ideas at work may see a restructuring of routines. Auspicious colours are dark green and salmon. Lucky numbers are 2 and 8.
Well, it's May Day, my lovely Librans! Just the day for a frolic in the fields, or a bonfire to frighten off the fashion tragics. You'll be at your sparkling best this morning, as the glorious Moon shines in your sign, though later in the day you'll be more inclined to put your head down and get your teeth into financial issues that need attention. Take some time to catch up with correspondence, especially with friends overseas. Read more on May Day. Expressive colours are emerald and foxglove. Lucky numbers are 1 and 9.
