Today’s daily horoscope for Oct. 3, 2024

Truth and the Moon

Active and varied lunar activity portends people trying to convince one another that their particular methods, ideologies and convictions are universal truths that all should adopt. It’s absurd, and rarely worth an argument. Meanwhile, the real truth will be non-intrusive. It doesn’t try to sell itself. It minds its own business and bothers no one.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When dearly held ideals don’t translate to what’s actually going on, you’ll be the first to set them aside in favor of dealing with reality. Be prioritizing “what is,” you will maximize the opportunities of the current circumstance.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What makes one person comfortable can do the opposite for another, which is why you use emotional intelligence and general awareness to gather intel. You read the room, and the room tells you everything you need to know.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Exceptional talent attracts other exceptional talent. However, like a strong magnet, it also attracts pretty much anything else with the right molecular composition. Think about what you’d like to bring into your life, and put filters in place.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Despite formal education, the fact of the matter is that we pick up most of what we know from simply being around the others. The company you keep is always going to influence your experience, but especially on days like today when you’re more impressionable than usual.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You know a good thing when you see it, and you also know when you (SET ITAL)are(END ITAL) it. Set your offering to reflect this knowledge. Ask a fair price for your wares. Require sweet reciprocity for your attention. Tend to the bottom line in all exchanges.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll watch those you’re fascinated by, and you’ll be fascinated by those you watch. If you knew for a fact that you would become a little like the ones you pay attention to today, who might you be inspired to tend to?

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The more things you enjoy, the more likely you are to encounter enjoyment. So expanding on your preferences isn’t just a matter of proving you are adventurous; it’s a way of serving your future self with more options.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Yes or no, stay or go … is always the essential, if unspoken, crux of interaction. When you feel frustrated, just remember that as long as you can use your feet to stroll on out, there are many other options.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The stubborn people in your life teach you just how stubborn you are, too. They dig their heels in, and you follow suit. Who will break this impasse? Not the weakest, rather the one most fond of peace.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Gathering information is not always the way to gain knowledge. It’s not knowing more, but knowing the right things, which usually starts with an excellent question. May your curiosity be amenable to wisdom’s guide.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Avoid making a case for a reality you don’t prefer. No good comes from focusing on the limits. Anyway, you don’t know what the limits really are until you try to blast past them. In the meantime, don’t talk yourself out of trying.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The beauty of live plants is for the gardener and also for the wasps and aphids. In seeking one lovely thing, you attract others who also seek it. Only you can say which efforts are worth the extras they come with.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 3). That which is sacredness will continue to feed you with its wonder. Indescribable peace will often alight on your experiences. Certain gifts are meant just for you, so enjoy them in a bubble of specialness. More highlights: A job you do will solve a major problem affecting many. Three big checks fund your project. You’ll adventure often and put transportation upgrades to use. Virgo and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 20, 1, 24 and 16.
