CR Times Horoscope – Oct 22nd to Oct 28th


	ARIES March 21 – April 20 Rediscovering your emotional independence is important this week. Working outside of your personal relationships can actually serve to enhance the quality of those connections. There really is such a thing as holding on too tightly. Let the winds of heaven flow between you and embrace the uniqueness that each of you have. In doing so, the sharing of control becomes a strength rather than a weakness.
	TAURUS April 21 – May 21 Financial matters are the focus this week. Right at the start of the week, a drastic change could cause a sense of urgency that could cause you to question your own value system. The challenge is not to overestimate or exaggerate the problem; your judgment needs to be based on reality not emotion. As hard as it is, make certain that you are not missing any crucial details as this could lead to additional difficulties./td>
	GEMINI May 22 – June 21 This is a good week to expand your focus on long term goals, particularly in the area of career. By broadening your interests and considering a wider range of possibilities, you might just discover that the “freedom” you have been seeking is really much closer that you had imagined. Allowing yourself to look beyond the horizon can provide the kind of mental stimulation and challenge you’ve been missing.
	CANCER June 22 – July 23 Work and career matters are under stress this week and the likelihood of lots of ups and downs may leave you feeling both psychically and physically drained by week’s end. Rather than being caught up in the emotions of the moment use your ability to get the “pulse” of the situation and use that information to your advantage. If you can please the person in the mirror, the rest will fall into place.
	LEO July 24 – August 23 Understanding what it is that you truly need (as opposed to want) is the theme of this week. Starting right at the beginning of this seven day period, focus on setting realistic expectations for the near term-particularly in social and romantic matters. In doing so, you can relieve much of the frustration you have been dealing with recently. Pay attention to unexpected encounters-there is a message there waiting for you. .
	VIRGO August 24 – September 23 This week you could end up as your own worst enemy especially where love and romance are involved. Hidden anxieties could cause you to pull back emotionally and, as a result, be the cause of the relationship falling off the proverbial cliff. Rather than indulging in self-pity i.e. drowning your sorrows (figuratively and literally) keep the lines of communication open and remember to say “I’m sorry”.
	LIBRA September 24 – October 23 Overestimating your ability to make things happen could make this a challenging seven days. What is called for is to accept the reality of things and direct your energies accordingly. Financial matters need to be carefully scrutinized as an unexpected expense could pop up near the end of the week. Maintaining an even emotional balance will be challenging and necessary to make forward progress happen.
	SCORPIO October 24 – November 22 This is a great week to take advantage of all that creative energy that you’ve been feeling of late. On the romantic front, you will find it easier to work out the differences with your partner and not allow your temper to get the better of you. Mi-week your resourcefulness will help you work through the circumstances that seem to be thwarting your efforts on the career front. Slow and steady progress can be made.
	SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 22 Communication issues or breakdowns could impact your love life this week. Suspicions, whether based on fact or your own insecurities, tend to cloud your ability to understand what is actually going on. Know that things can change if you are willing to express your fears openly. Sometimes the answers that we seek are right in front of us if we use our eyes to see, our ears to hear, and our hearts to feel.
	CAPRICORN December 23 – January 20Apprehension in dealing with family matters must be faced and overcome this week. Trying to ignore the issue won’t resolve it. What is called for is a recognition that your emotional reactions are as much a product of your early years as they are a result of the current situation. By acknowledging the source of your hesitation, a result that both nurtures and permits nurturing can be reached.
	AQUARIUS January 21 – February 19 This is a good week to “play” so make the most of it. Trying to focus on just one activity could be a bit of a challenge because you could become bored quickly. A good opportunity to turn a bit of financial risk taking into a profit appears late in the week. Keeping the balance between your instinctive gifts and your openness to consider new approaches could pay off in unexpected ways.
	PISCES February 20 – March 20 This week your focus is on work/school. You feel a need/urgency to work even harder than you have been lately. The worry and responsibility that you are feeling about the outcome of your efforts could impact your health mid-week. Your imagination is your secret weapon and can provide the ability to solve some of these everyday “crises” with a unique flare all your own. Dare to dream-it might come true.
