Horoscope: Oct. 2 | The Loyola Phoenix

Libra: Sept. 23 to Oct. 23

Each day, you wake up different. In slow, small ways, you’re changing. Love yourself today, yesterday and tomorrow — each version is deserving of kindness.

Scorpio: Oct. 24 to Nov. 21

Mistakes are seldom irreversible. Apologize, revive, heal and mend — second chances aren’t as rare as you might think.

Sagittarius: Nov. 22 to Dec. 21

One rip doesn’t ruin the entire piece. Cut out a swath of your favorite fabric and patch it up. There’s still a life to live.

Capricorn: Dec. 22 to Jan. 19

There’ll be days of damp sorrow, but there’ll be days of warm affection as well. Keep moving forward through the ugly and beauty will shine once again.

Aquarius: Jan. 20 to Feb. 18

You can’t expect to receive results instantaneously. Harvests aren’t reaped till months after planting.

Pisces: Feb. 19 to March 20

Even the quiet accomplishments deserve celebration. There’s no shame in being proud of who you are or what you’ve achieved.

Aries: March 21 to April 19

Even the creepy crawlies are cherished — spiders, centipedes and cockroaches are all adored by someone. There’s love in this world for everyone.

Taurus: April 20 to May 20

Bask in the soft yellow of the lamplight, in the calm blue of the afternoon sky. Life doesn’t need to be smothered into grays.

Gemini: May 21 to June 21

Your thoughts are poetry, your fears are prose. Write down your life in scribbles and swirls — it may help you understand yourself better in the end.

Cancer: June 22 to July 22

Regain your focus — orient yourself in the world and continue your journey. You haven’t fallen behind just yet.

Leo: July 23 to Aug. 22

Your anger is choking you. Your hatred only rots your soul. Bear no malice and you’ll breathe easier.

Virgo: Aug. 23 to Sept. 22

Just as a garden flourishes in diversity and plenitude, so, too, do you. A solitary life will cause you to wither, deprived of nutrients.
