I like to relax on the weekends, and part of that includes compiling different horoscopes to get a preview of my week ahead. I have highlighted Taurus & Scorpio here but anyone can follow the links for their own astrology sign.
Taurus Horoscope for Monday, October 12, 2009 April 20-May 20
If you are feeling uncomfortable and out of place today, it is because you are trying a new way of being that you haven't become used to you. A part of the picture involves applying your old skills with a slightly different twist in a new setting. Today is the time to take care of all financial obligations or matters that need tending, because the conditions in general are favorable and more in tune with your monetary affairs.

Taurus- October 11, 2009 Taurus April 20 - May 20 Plans for getting together with a group of close friends may have to be called off because of sudden and unexpected events. This could have you feeling somewhat down, dear Taurus, especially if a romantic partner is involved. Try not to worry about it too much. You will be able to reschedule, and you could use the time alone anyway to relax and center yourself.
Taurus - Oct. 12, 2009
You've got a lot on your mind right now, dear Taurus, and others might be interpreting your quiet behavior as aloofness. Go right ahead, and let them think so. You've got some real issues to think through and decisions with important consequences. You will be able to smooth their ruffled feathers later. Right now, focus on taking care of yourself.
Taurus - Oct. 13, 2009
Your natural sensitivity and compassion are given a powerful impetus forward today by strong feelings of love and affection for everyone around you, dear Taurus. Therefore you're likely to be on the giving and receiving end of a lot of expressions of affection, both overt and subtle. Your significant other should be feeling especially romantic toward you, so relax, and let him or her shower you with attention! Children could also prove a powerful source of support.

Daily Extended Horoscope: taurus
Daily: You can see more deeply into people than usual, which might provoke all sorts of good connections and insights. It's a great day for you to reach out to a new romantic partner or to make peace with someone.
Daily extended: What someone is saying and what they really mean deep down in their heart are two different things, and you know it. You're entering a very intuitive phase right now, where you can see the underlying meaning behind empty words. This is a very powerful position, but it's also dangerous -- you may not be meant to know what you know. So don't share your hunches with anyone today, especially with characters on the periphery. Hey, homebody! Lazing around, reading and tidying up the nest may very well sound a lot more satisfying than running around town. Do what you feel -- it's one of the luxuries of singledom.
October 12, 2009
Daily Let others set the tone today, though you a re sure to chafe at least a bit when they do. You may know what's right, but it's hard to tell others today without having them dismiss you as arrogant.
Daily extended: This could very well be an instant replay of yesterday, complete with all the drama -- or even melodrama. The good news is that by the time night arrives, you'll most likely be enjoying an equally romantic experience with the person you were with last night. Oh, and if you weren't with them -- if you were just thinking about them -- you'll likely have a chance to turn that fantasy into a lovely reality. You've got a way with words, as well as glances, smiles, light but meaningful touches -- you get the picture. Maybe it's because you're reading their cues like a book, making every response obvious and natural.

Taurus' Love & Relationships Horoscope In October 2009
October 2009 will be a generous month from the affective point of view. In the first part of the interval, Venus will watch your house of flirts, love and eroticism, so you can manifest freely.
Afterwards, love life can somehow be influenced by obligations and responsibilities, but that won't stop you from flirting. You can very well do it at school or at the office, which might paradoxically improve your professional efficiency!
Taurus' Money & Career Horoscope In October 2009
October 2009 will be excellent for profession and career. You'll have a lot of work to do, but the effort will be rewarded: it'll lead to successes and promotions almost definitely, or at least to position consolidation.
You might find it harder in the second week of October 2009, maybe even be forced to make some choices (and this doesn't refer to work only), but the last ten days will bring you good things and fulfillment.
Financially, in the first half of October there might be unexpected situations.
Taurus' Physical & Mental Fitness Horoscope In October 2009
The physical shape will be very good. If you have some minor health problems, this is the best period to take the necessary measures for recovery.
October 2009 will be a good period for investigations, treatments, diets, and even beauty care.
Astrologer's advice for Taurus In October 2009
Bring your ideas forward and support your point of view elegantly, in a diplomatic manner!
Daily Sunday October 11, 2009 Interacting with others today seems so simple that you might start thinking that you're missing something - and you probably are. It's easy for you to gloss over the facts now or conveniently forget what you've been told. Luckily, you can make up your mind to pay extra careful attention to everything that happens. Concentrating on the possibilities of the present moment can help you to avoid spacing out. http://www.creators.com/lifestylefeatures/horoscopes/horoscopes-by-holiday.html Horoscopes by Holiday for October 12, 2009
Jovial Jupiter, the planet of prosperity, goes direct in Aquarius. Between now and July 2010, technology will advance in leaps, as will the number of people who use it to make money, spread joy and develop their skills and ideas. It's an extremely social time, too, when personal connections are more easily made and essential to success.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The part of you that loves peace and stability will be shaken. But there's a bigger part of you that's brave in the face of change, so nothing can keep you from moving ahead. Anyway, this little detour won't last long. http://www.horoscopeswithin.com/taurus.php October 2009 Monthly Horoscope Forecast
by Cornelia Jones
April 21st - May 21st
Your monthly horoscope follows this main text for all signs.
For the last two and a half years we have all been asked to adapt to new situations in some area of our lives as Saturn transited Virgo. This transit began in Sept. 2007. We have all had to establish more order; schedules have been influenced, along with employment and/or health care issues that have been in the spotlight for many. Serving something or someone other than ourselves meant we had to remain flexible in the face of change. Adjusting to new circumstances may have been challenging, worrisome, or burdensome as Saturn tested our strengths and weaknesses.
This month will set the stage for a new trend which we will all experience at some level. On Oct. 29, 2009, Saturn, the "Taskmaster", the planet of old age (Father Time), hard work, and determined effort will enter Libra for the first time since Sept. 1980-Aug. 1983. Think back, if you're old enough, to what significant events happened in your life during those years because similar themes may develop during this transit.
Saturn will retrograde at 4° Libra on Jan. 13, 2010, and re-enter Virgo in April 2010. During the retrograde phase, Saturn will remind you of the commitments and decisions you are making right now. Saturn will station direct at 28° Virgo May 30, 2010, finishing up its final trek through Virgo on July 21of next year and will not re-enter Virgo again until 2036. From October through January 2010 we will get a hint of what this Saturn in Libra transit will be like, especially for those that have planets 0-5 degrees in their charts.
The Cardinal signs, or people with planets 0-5 degrees in Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn, will experience Saturn almost immediately. In addition, the Cancer/Capricorn eclipse in December and the eclipses next year will influence these signs so there are sure to be dramatic changes for the Cardinal signs and for those with planets within them.
Saturn's transit through Libra until Oct. 2012 will give each of us enough time to grow from this planets influence. Saturn is exalted in Libra, meaning Saturn holds Libra in high regard and works well in this sign. Libra is a relationship sign; a sign concerned with equality, fairness, justice, and beauty. Creating balance in our relationships will be of fundamental importance, as will how we relate to others. We will learn to compromise, weigh both sides of the coin, and treat others as we want to be treated.
There will be challenges on the way where we are held responsible for our actions, or we will weed out what doesn't promote progress in our lives and in our relationships. All relationships will be influenced, from marriage and family, those who you do business with on a daily basis, and to those that oppose you. Relationships are our reflections-what we give out, we receive in return. Saturn will remind you of that fact. Saturn will ask you to accept certain boundaries and when you do this graciously, you will be compensated. Saturn always leaves you a gift after it leaves a sign. Usually that gift is one of strength and stability because Saturn's job always builds a firm foundation in the area it is transiting. Sometimes the reward hits you like a revelation when you look back on the last 2 ½ years because Saturn's lessons are always slow, and always deliberate.
Taurus,
This month you put your energy into employment matters, your daily routines or chores, and health care as the sun transits your 6th house.
As October begins you still have your ruler (Venus) and Mercury, your communications planet, transiting your 5th house of creative expression, children, pleasure, and romance. These personal planets team up with Saturn, adding a stabilizing but more serious undertone to romance and anything you do to have a good time. Take home a movie, go to a concert, or visit an art gallery, because this is as good as it gets. Soon planets will change signs and you'll have to wait a long time for another month like this one. You can remain practical and still enjoy yourself. Also, don't postpone important talks with your kids.
Mars continues to transit your 3rd house of transportation, ideas, agreements, and siblings. This transit may stimulate the desire to learn something new or it could make you a powerful force in your daily life because of the need to express yourself. Just be careful; sometimes this transit can result in intimidating others. Transportation issues could arise, so watch the speed limit and other drivers. This is a good transit to help a neighbor or a sibling with a project, but the same energy could cause conflicts or stress.
Full moon in Aries on Oct. 4 falls in your 12th house of confinement, rest, secrets, and closure. Taurus born within 5 days of May 2 will feel this full moon most. The sun will illuminate health or employment, so issues could culminate around work or a hospitalization matter. This full moon can lower your resistance and cause you to feel run down, so be sure and take extra care in protecting yourself from illness. The full moon may bring closure to an employment matter. Mars, ruling this full moon, is harmoniously aligned to Uranus which could bring news out of the blue. The full moons influence may concern you, a family member, or a pet that requires attention.
Mercury enters your 6th house on Oct. 9/10 (depending on your location) and Venus follows Oct. 14th. If you're looking for work, these planets may help with interviews and bring favor from employers. This would be a good transit to think about dropping a bad habit, to change your health regime, or talk to your doctor if you have a pressing health concern.
Mars enters your 4th house of home, family, and property on Oct. 16 for an unusually long transit. Mars will transit Leo until June 6, 2010-almost 8 months! This transit will result in a lot of activity in your home or surrounding your family, and could present some challenges. Mars rules your 12th house of confinement and psychological issues, so it could be that someone at home is ill and you may be a caregiver or required to shoulder more responsibilities. Mars at the bottom of your chart can cause emotional upsets, excessive worrying, or stomach problems. Mars can also cause conflicts between family members, so be careful with your words.
This is also the area that governs your roots and the foundations of your life. You may be working hard to stabilize your family, to secure your home environment, or your relationship with family members. This is also a time that you may work hard in the home, cleaning, organizing, and getting your home in top shape. Just be careful that your desire to have your home the way you want it doesn't make you pushy and aggressive towards those you love.
The new moon Oct. 18 falls in your 6th house of work, chores, and health. Taurus born within 5 days of May 16 will notice this new moon most. New moons bring new opportunities and fresh starts within two weeks, although the first week is more potent. This may be the time you get organized, clean out some clutter, or hire someone to help you. This new moon may find you with a new work assignment or you may start a new schedule that helps you live a more productive lifestyle. If you are unemployed, this could be the fresh start you've been waiting for. If you need to find work, send your resume out this month and make some call-backs.
This is also your new moon to start a new health regime, get a check-up, or find a doctor. If you want to start a diet, begin your exercise routine, push back from the table, and cut back on calories after November's full moon, but eat a balanced diet and be sure and take vitamins. The two weeks leading up to the next full moon will give you a running start, but appetites increase as the moon grows fuller so drastic changes aren't recommended. This would also be a good time to try a new hairstyle or upgrade your style in some fashion.
Other areas of life that may begin anew are your daily schedules which may be changing. You could get a pet or your pet may be starting a new phase. Health care or health insurance, workman's compensation, or employment benefits could begin now.
The sun enters your 7th house Oct. 23 and Mercury follows Oct. 28. This transit will turn your attention to committed relationships, business contracts, and may heighten career activity for yourself or your significant other.
Saturn enters Libra, your 6th house of work and health Oct. 29. This transit may be stressful as it will focus on weaknesses in your health or work environment. Saturn in the 6th house usually represents hard work and additional responsibilities for little reward or appreciation. Ask anyone with Saturn in the sixth house and they will tell you that they often have to do the work of two people and no one recognizes them for their efforts. Sometimes they feel as though they are taken advantage of by employers or co-workers. Let's hope this doesn't happen to you, but you'll probably be asked to prove yourself through all of your efforts. Regarding your health, Saturn can deplete calcium so it would be beneficial for you to take a supplement to prevent bone loss. It doesn't matter what your age, as Saturn can cause problems with your knees at any time, or cause other chronic health problems. If your rising sign is Libra, this is important for you as well. You won't be able to cut corners, so if you have a bad habit, you'll need to address it under this transit.
Enjoy your month! http://www.horoscopeswithin.com/scorpio.php October 2009 Monthly Horoscope Forecast
by Cornelia Jones
Oct. 24th - Nov. 22ndScorpio,
The sun is transiting the last house of your horoscope; this is the time to get away from the crowd, to rest and rejuvenate, and take care of yourself. If you're tired, feeling under the weather, or lack energy, this will change in the weeks ahead. If you have work that needs steady concentration, find a quiet place as you'll get more accomplished working alone. Spiritual growth is highlighted and health care will be important. Soon the sun will enter your sign and you will begin a new year-long cycle.
Full moon in Aries on Oct. 4 falls in your 6th house of health, service, and daily routines. If your birthday falls within 5 days of Nov. 4 you will feel this full moon most. This full moon may coincide with the culmination of a recent health concern-for yourself, a female, or for your pet. You could hear results from a medical test, a surgical procedure may be required, or you might be feeling ill. Full moons falling on your health axis can lower your resistance so you'll need to take extra precautions this month. This full moon may concern your parent or your significant other. If health is not influenced, employment concerns may arise. This may be the time you wrap up a big project. If you employ someone, this full moon may prompt decisions about how to continue along this route. In addition, this full moon may call your attention to a service you provide. Decisions concerning health insurance or employment grievances could be resolved. Travel may be necessary for health or employment reasons.
Mercury enters your 12th house on Oct. 9/10 (depending on your location) and Venus follows Oct. 14th. At the start of October, these planets of relating and beauty have been at a difficult alignment to Pluto, your ruler. Friends may have been in short supply, your ambitions may seem thwarted, or your activity within a group of like minded individuals may have brought more stress than reward. Now you will go within and weed out what doesn't work and promote progress in your life. Venus and Mercury transiting this sector may encourage you to share your feelings. This would be a good transit for you to talk to a health care provider. This transit may stimulate the desire to help someone who is feeling blue, just be careful that you don't take on their problems. Your intuition may be sharper now so listen to your inner voice.
Mars enters your 10th house of career and reputation on Oct. 16 for an unusually long transit. Mars will transit Leo until June 6, 2010-almost 8 months! This transit will not only stimulate your desire to be successful, but you could also act as a role model for others. Your desire to gain recognition will be strong and your creativity will be at an all time high so you'll probably develop a constructive plan to help you reach the top of your game. Mars rules over your health sector so you should be careful not to over work yourself or accidents and inflammations could become a problem. If you are not employed, this transit could cause upsets with authority types (teachers, parents, police, etc.). You could make a name for yourself in your community, among your peers, or be placed in a leadership type position. If you are working, your employer may expect you to produce more now or you may be putting in extra hours at work. If you need overtime, you're probably going to get it.
The new moon Oct. 18 falls in your 12th house of rest, secrets, and behind the scenes activities. New moons offer you a two week opportunity to start fresh, although the first week is always more powerful. Scorpio's born within 5 days of Nov. 17 will notice this influence most. The new moon will bring you the opportunity to start a project that requires working behind the scenes. Your family will support you or you may begin this project from home. This new moon may relate to something about your home or family situation ending, while something new unfolds. The new moon may concern a health or hospitalization matter. You may spend more time getting check ups and dental work, or someone dear to you may receive a clean bill of health. If you have a troubling health matter you may look for a new healthcare provider.
The sun enters your sign Oct. 23 this year and Mercury follows Oct. 28. If the first part of the month left you feeling low on energy, this transit will put the pep back in your step as you may have more energy now. The sun can put you in the spotlight so make sure you have the ability to fulfill what's asked of you. You may feel more driven to see your efforts bear fruit and your need to express yourself will be strong. Relationships will be highlighted and your creative energy may be easier to express. This is your time to focus on what you would like to accomplish in the months ahead.
This is also Solar Return time-your astrological new year is taking shape. The Solar Return chart for the day that the sun returns to its natal placement will tell you about what themes will be around for the next year. This is an important technique used in predictive astrology. You may want to consider investing in yourself and a Solar Return report from Horoscopes Within. You'll also receive your personal Lunar Return horoscope to help guide you through the month ahead. Your birth chart is included with most orders.
Saturn enters Libra, your 12 house of renewal, isolation, spirituality, and completion on Oct. 29. A 12th house Saturn transit represents letting go of parts of your life so that you're ready when Saturn enters your sign. The areas of your life that have lasting value will remain with you, the issues that don't promote personal progress will not. You may leave friends behind because you are not moving in the same direction. Careers could change in order for you to find more balance or happiness. Your domestic situation could change because of relocation or someone leaving home. I left my job, sold my home, and moved my children 650 miles to start a new life when I remarried during a 12th house Saturn transit. Good things can happen during this transit, but old chapters of our lives must be closed to give way to new ones unfolding.
It's not uncommon to spend more time alone, even for a social butterfly. Too much isolation can cause feelings of depression, fear, or guilt. If you do experience any psychological issue you should talk to your doctor or seek counseling.
Saturn has rulership of your 3rd house of relating. Your ideas, opinions, and attitudes will probably differ from the ones you have now by the time you are finished with this introspective transit. You will reflect on your life and envision what you need to do in order to create the life you desire.
Enjoy your month! http://horoscope.xaapa.com/scorpio-daily-horoscope-daily-astrology-scorpio/ You can step through a difficult situation with determination and, fortunately, emerge with your dignity intact. Additionally, the significant lessons available for learning now are about survival and controlling your own power. Still, you are tempted to make a bigger deal out of this current situation than is necessary. If you are feeling the scarcity, don't feed your current anxious visions by giving them extra attention. Scorpio October 2009 Horoscope
Scorpio's Love & Relationships Horoscope In October 2009
You've had better days in love. And you will. However, October 2009 won't be very generous.
The ruler of your house of couples, Venus, will form in the first part of October 2009 an opposition with Uranus and a conjunction with Saturn, aspects that favor sudden reactions, breakups, winces, inhibitions or frustration. After which, Venus will hide in your twelfth house, a sad and restrictive house.
The only ones that stand a chance will be the secret relationships.
Scorpio's Money & Career Horoscope In October 2009
October 2009 will lay emphasis on association, group actions, protectors and popularity. This is an area you still have some things to deal with, and the first part of the month could help you take the correct steps.
Home and properties benefit from some secret actions or from the support of somebody who wants discretion.
Once Mars enters Leo, the second part of October 2009 will mark the beginning of a long period of ambitions or professional turbulences.
Scorpio's Physical & Mental Fitness Horoscope In October 2009
You'll function at an average level: you won't burst with vitality, but you can't complain of lack of vigor, either.
There'll be some receptivity to contaminations, though, so you'd better stay away from sick people. And even cut down on work and get some more sleep.
Astrologer's advice for Scorpio In October 2009
Use the second part of October 2009 to discretely pull some strings to get what you want!
http://www.creators.com/lifestylefeatures/horoscopes/horoscopes-by-holiday.html Horoscopes by Holiday for October 12, 2009

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your personal life sparkles with the spirit of anticipation. You went into this without expectations, but now you can't help but wonder if the other feels the way you do. That will become crystal clear shortly.
http://astrocenter.astrology.msn.com/msn/Default.aspx?Sign=7&Af=-1000
October 11, 2009 Scorpio October 23 - November 21
Today you might be feeling especially protective toward all those you love - children, family, friends, pets, and your significant other. Upsetting news might have you wondering about the future, but don't let this get you down. All should be well, so, dear Scorpio, allow yourself to relax and enjoy the presence of your loved ones. Distract yourself by going to an exciting movie. That will help release all your tension and put you in a far better space.
October 12, 2009 Scorpio - Oct. 12, 2009
A rush of humanitarian spirit and a desire to do some real good might find you looking into various charities to find those you might want to help. However, money might be flowing out for other purposes a bit too quickly for your tastes. It perhaps would be best, dear Scorpio, to find one group that suits you best and give to that one. Save other worthy causes for another time.
Scorpio October 13, 2009
A lot of warm and loving communications could come your way today, dear Scorpio. It could be in the form of letters, phone calls, or perhaps some post cards. Friends from far away whom you haven't heard from in a long time could keep you busy on the phone catching up. Relations with family members or a partner are likely to be supportive and intimate today. With this, your appreciation of those in your life may be highlighted.
http://www.redbookmag.com/fun-contests/horoscopes/daily/full/full-scorpio
Daily: It's a good day for passivity -- that is one way to bring success a little closer! Your great energy is better at planning and waiting than it is at making things happen by sheer force of will right now.
Daily Extended: Today, in a situation where you are typically uncomfortable, you will be able to let yourself go and relax. This new clarity might not last long, so take advantage of it while it's here. Think about the next steps you want to take in a relationship -- is it time to push things forward? Weigh the pros and cons, and be prepared to arrive at an answer you don't really like. When another person is involved, you have to consider their attitudes and goals. It might seem like what you want is just falling into your lap, but your excellent instincts about what to do and say -- not to mention some good timing -- certainly aren't hurting matters.
October 12, 2009 Daily: You've got a bigger problem facing you today -- but it's one you can handle. Your boss, or maybe some other authority figure, is in a bear of a mood and unable to listen to criticism.
Daily extended: You're not panicking -- not yet, anyway -- but you are starting to get nervous. You woke up not quite feeling like your usual self. You have an insatiable urge to show off, to let the world know all about how many wonderful, brilliant things you've done from well behind the scenes lately -- and all about how badly things would have failed if you hadn't been brave enough to do exactly what you did. Oh, well. Go ahead. Brag. You're overdue for some appreciation. A casual chat on the phone or over a cubicle wall could turn into a conversation with a lot more to it. Before you get too in-depth, though, ensure that you've got some time and some privacy.
HAVE A FANTASTIC WEEK! Much Love to You Always! ; )
