Horoscope: Oct 15

Aries (March 21-April 19): You surround yourself with accepting, fun-loving people. That’s partly why you are free to be yourself.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Giving yourself over to a conversation is like taking a magic carpet ride into someone else’s life. Ask a good question, be carried away.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Though it is sometimes necessary to be very discriminating and critical of the world, too much analyzing is likely to cut you off from the joy of things as they are.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Some would use a situation for all it’s worth and then dump it when something better comes along. You, on the other hand, are loyal.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ll spend time with a special loved one and be aware of how this friendship is bigger than the sum of its parts.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Power conflicts are subtle. Pay attention. Use charm to smooth things over before they get out of hand.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): It’s natural to experience a crisis of confidence every once in a while. A life without fear means that not enough chances are being taken.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): What you do to help others might seem to backfire. Maybe they don’t appear to appreciate you as fully as you were secretly expecting. Help anyway.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You are driven. It is because of your sheer force of will that you will be able to overcome any lack of resources or bit of turbulence you encounter.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’re in for interaction with someone who is a live wire. This person’s intensity makes you uncomfortable, and yet you’re better off for the association.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’re not as excited about an endeavor as you once were. But someone new will get involved and fan the flames once more.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You are so emotionally complex sometimes that even you don’t understand why you feel as you do. But the “why” doesn’t matter. It’s how you channel these strong feelings into action.

Today’s birthday (Oct. 15): You’ll be made aware of the wealth of love in your life in November. You’ll start a new great habit in December. There’s hard work to finish in February, and it will be a source of pride for you in March. Aries and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers: 3, 10, 22, 39 and 17.
