HOROSCOPES October 6.- 12 ARIES - March 21/April 20 You'll be more imaginative than usual, October 9th and 12th are two dates you might like to record in your diary, for those are days when circumstances beyond your control are likely to alter your position at work, and to some extent force you to rethink long-term plans associated with your home life. ‘TAURUS - April 21/May 21 It must be difficult to relax with so much going on around you and so little help and cooperation from part- ners and close associates, You were bor under a truthful sign, but you realize that for the moment at least it's wiser to suffer in silence, A busi- ness meeting is not successful, because you do not know what to Genin GEMINI - May 22/June 21 Sometimes it is wiser to save your breath and let others do all the talk- ing and explaining, which is certain- ly the case this weekend. An inter- esting situation conceming travel or associations abroad is emerging in your solar chart, but it is too carly yet to say how far you should ome involved. CANCER - June 22/July 22 The stars show that you are free and easy, more tolerant than usual; your jokes go over well. Don’t be dismis- sive or evasive about financial ibilities and i now because unless you set the record straight you are not going to be free to enjoy new openings and Opportunities, LEO - July 23/August 23 Whether or not you are heavily involved in a partnership or close personal relationship is irrelevant. What matters is that you don't appear to be so preoccupied with your own activities and interests that No one can get through to you. There could be a special link with the ini- tial H. VIRGO - August 24/Sept 22 Astrologically there’s not a great deal going on this week, but it would be extremely unwise to imagine that loved ones will go along with all your plans. Far from it! You help someone with honest advice. LIBRA - September 23/Oct 23 A sports event arouses your enthusiasm. With an improvement in your finances and income you prob- ably can afford to take a short vaca- tion; it would do you good to get away from it all, especially during the weekend. You're sensitive to other people's feelings, so will take the family into account. ; SCORPIO - October 24/Nov 22 Back your hunches if you are trying to come up with ways to make the housekeeping money stretch further, You will be amazed at how you can save by shopping around, provided ‘ou don't let friends interfere: In love, it's better to have a quarrel than an angry silence, SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 When working this week, don't be upset if you encounter a few set- backs.
