Your Horoscope for the Week Ahead

Your weekly horoscope is here. Mars, the planet of action is in the watery sign of fluctuating feelings, Cancer. This is your consciousness-raising moment. Get behind the driver’s wheel, or in this case, the diver’s bell, to align your actions with your passions. The constant overexposure to stories that trigger our fight-or-flight response may have you on the defensive, so take a break and breathe. Give it three long, slow breaths and decide if and how you choose to respond. Mercury in earthy Virgo (and it is Virgo season) makes this the ideal time to focus on grounding routines and truly being present in the moment. Be in the moment with each conversation, action, and choice, no matter how small or large, and notice the difference this approach makes to how you feel, the quality of your relationships, and your results. In short, go outside and touch some grass if you’re feeling hot and bothered. Then make the changes you need to make.

Read on to discover your weekly horoscope and what’s in store for your sign during the week of September 8 through 14, 2024.

Aries

Focus on communication and ideas in your work sphere as Mercury flits through on Monday. Comb through best practices, what you’re aiming for, and the most efficient way of achieving your goal. Once you have a plan, you’re less likely to become distracted. With your roadmap and goal clear, you’ll stay on track more easily. Scour your options for grants, positions, clients, platforms, or whatever would support your work. Perhaps it’s time to invest in a new tool or upgrade for your work. In terms of wellness, relax your mind with a guided meditation or mix it up via an app; there are plenty of great freebies on YouTube. If you need a pick-me-up, try it instead of reaching for a sugar hit or fast snack. On the other hand, a quick walk, jumping jacks, or stretches could do the trick if you’re at a desk and need to move your body and recharge.

Taurus

Your zone of fun, romance, and self-expression gets a boost as Mercury zips through. Follow your curiosity and investigate an interest to learn more about it. Or put time into your own opus. Perhaps search for a writing group or grant opportunities to support your talent. Or head out to a movie you’re drawn to, then scour the YouTube fan videos for all the Easter eggs. Or, make your own! What has your interest been gravitating toward in terms of health and nutrition? Have you followed anything up? Now is your time to make a plan you’d enjoy as a pastime, not just a chore! Take it easy and walk, or have a small gathering with each guest sharing a skill or recipe. This is your PowerPoint party moment—plan one for your home or attend to pick up tips, and friends!
