Horoscope: Oct. 24
By Holiday Mathis

October 24, 2009
Aries (March 21-April 19): Keep your eyes peeled for lucky opportunities, however small. Picking up a penny from the sidewalk is like saying to the universe: “Thank you for this unexpected gift.” Which inclines the universe to shower you more often.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You get annoyed when you see stronger people exploiting the less fortunate. When you witness this happening today, do something to right the balance.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): The ones you love can hurt you the most. You prove how brave and compassionate you are by continuing to open up to them. To love is to be vulnerable. It won’t work any other way.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’re having a hard time making decisions about the most mundane things. Go with your gut, no second-guessing.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Basically, You wish a certain person would just go away. Unfortunately, this person doesn’t wish to go anywhere. So consider this an opportunity to learn more about cooperation.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A song on the radio catches you and makes you feel euphoric, sad or romantic for no specific reason. One of the greatest gifts of music is its power to soften the human heart.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Little bits of wisdom are suspended in the air all around you. When you close your eyes and breathe deeply, they become part of you.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): In the past, sometimes you have taken on too much and managed to get through it, but there was a cost. You’re wiser now. Be as deliberate as possible about the work and responsibility you accept.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your self-deprecating ways are what make you so adorable. But sometimes — today for instance — you need to step up and say, “I am great and this is why.” It keeps your humility/confidence ratio in balance.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Use euphemisms. It’s not a bad hair day; it’s a good hat day. Perception is a top: Spin it!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A flaky friend is frustrating you more than usual. Flakiness is just a mask for a lack of respect, after all. You might have to say something this time, lest your friendship be in jeopardy.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): If it seems that work is dragging on, consider that maybe you’re looking for a more inventive solution than is necessary. Simple fixes are the most effective.

Today’s birthday (Oct. 24): There’s something you have been working toward for years, and you will attain it this year for one simple reason: Now you can handle it. The next three months see you extremely attractive and pulling in team members to help you get to your destination. March brings a breakthrough in your love life. Taurus and Cancer people adore you. Your lucky numbers are 30, 1, 53, 28 and 19.
