Daily forecasts for October 2009 written by Rob Tillett.
Click here for Moonbeam's Month in Brief.
Thu Oct 1:
Have Faith
- The Moon moves into your ninth house of religion and
philosophy, putting you in a much more agreeable mood. Matters of faith
are important to the spiritual Crab, and no matter what you believe, it
surely makes you stronger. What you think and believe may be coming
into sharper focus as the Moon spars with Mars.
Fortunate colours are red coral and pale blue.
Lucky numbers are 9 and 18.
Fri Oct 2:
Wanderlust
- Your mind may be far away as the Moon activates your ninth
house of travel and adventure... a little bit of wanderlust never hurt
anyone, but pay attention when you're driving! It's easy to injure
yourself or others while you're lost in a daydream. Pay attention to
detail, as the tendency to drift off will be strong.
Advantageous colours are olive green and maroon.
Lucky numbers are 3 and 47.
Sat Oct 3:
Warrior Moon
- With the warrior Moon still battling it out in dynamic Aries,
expect some ego-conflict over career issues. Flashes of brilliance appear
soon enough, but the overall flavour is confrontational. Political and
military lines are drawn in the sand, so make peace with your partner and
avoid war-zones!
Fortunate colours are grape green and silver.
Lucky numbers are 33 and 26.
Sun Oct 4:
Full Moon Blues
- Today's Full Moon in Aries promises trouble on the home front and
brings out any conflict between your domestic and career issues. The
afternoon could be quite fortunate, with some surprising benefit
flowing your way, perhaps via a sibling or neighbour. The evening will be
very romantic, but keep out of war zones!
Harmonious colours are pale green and ruby red.
Lucky numbers are 4 and 10.
Mon Oct 5:
Tension Remains High
- Hostility and confusion are still stalking the camp. You feel ill
at ease. The tension remains high, but friends and other allies come to
your aid as the day draws on. Something is wrong, but it's hard to put
your finger on it.
Propitious colours are burnished gold and russet brown.
Lucky numbers are 15 and 13.
Tue Oct 6:
Friends And Fortune
- It's not a good idea to mix business with pleasure today, as
the Moon clashes with Neptune and Jupiter in your houses of friendship
and corporate finances. You can enjoy your friends today and you can e
successful in business; the key is not to mix the two if possible.
Romantic relationships may be under pressure today; be on guard against
needless power struggles.
Favourable colours are electric blue and silver.
Lucky numbers are 11 and 17.
Wed Oct 7:
Brainstorm
- The Moon and Mars combine to give you creative inspiration today,
but it won't be without a struggle. This is a great day to brainstorm
with others, and even disagreements should be productive. If you keep a
positive attitude, much can be accomplished, but a positive attitude is
imperative. Otherwise, you'll have plenty of great ideas but no co-
operation.
Beneficial colours are soft pink and sparkling green.
Lucky numbers are 14 and 31.
Thu Oct 8:
Recharge
- The Moon is moving through your twelfth house of secrets and
solitude, urging you to recharge your spiritual batteries. You may be low
on energy, which is normal during your low lunar cycle. Find a way to
make time for yourself so that you can tend to your own needs for a
change. A long, warm bubble bath tonight may be just what you need.
Favourable colours are aqua and lavender.
Lucky numbers are 12 and 30.
Fri Oct 9:
Under The Weather
- It may be quite hard to get out of bed this morning, but you need
to meet your responsibilities to close off the week. Some of you may truly
be under the weather, which often happens when the Moon crosses the
twelfth house. Stay home if you need to; otherwise, keep a slow and
steady pace throughout the day. You can make it if you persevere!
Fortunate colours are dove grey and teal.
Lucky numbers are 3 and 21.
Sat Oct 10:
Feeling Good
- The Moon in Cancer and your first house of personality awakens
a burst of energy. You feel good and it shows; people will be drawn to
you more than usual today. After work activities may be fun for you, so
don't rule out an impromptu gathering. Mercury enters Libra, so Crabs
with children might consider renting a fun movie and ordering pizza so
you can sit back and spend time at home with them tonight.
Auspicious colours are cinnabar and caramel.
Lucky numbers are 1 and 4.
Sun Oct 11:
Excitement Plus
- There's excitement in the air for many of you, making today
perfect for fun activities. You're especially creative, so allow your
talents to shine today. A friend may need help with costume ideas; if so,
they have come to the right person! You'll enjoy preparing your home
and family for social events and good times just as much as you'll
enjoy participating!
Advantageous colours are cherry red and cream.
Lucky numbers are 19 and 28.
Mon Oct 12:
Industrious Crabs
- Your second house of finances is activated as the Moon enters
luxurious Leo. As much as you'd like to spend money today, you're
better off with your nose to the grindstone. You're very productive as
motivation sets in, so focus your energy on work. There may be some
confusing red tape to cut through, but trust in yourself: you're up to
the task.
Beneficial colours are copper and fern green.
Lucky numbers are 2 and 8.
Tue Oct 13:
Astute Crabs
- The Moon moves through Leo and your second house of personal
finances and values today, making some of you more mindful of your
budget. This is fine, as Cancer natives are often very resourceful!
Careful shopping may yield some great bargains. Keep your eyes open for a
good deal. Jupiter turns direct in your house of other people's money, so
be sure your taxes are up to date!
Advantageous colours are copper and silver.
Lucky numbers are 11 and 20.
Wed Oct 14:
Gabfest
- The Moon moves through Virgo and your third house of
communications today, making it a great day for a Gabfest. Take this
opportunity to respond to your phone calls and e-mail; you'll be extra
efficient and effective with words. Someone at work may get on your
nerves by saying something that doesn't sit right with you; let it
slide if you want to make a good impression on your higher ups.
Auspicious colours are golden amber and sky blue.
Lucky numbers are 5 and 14.
Thu Oct 15:
Listen Up
- Your partner may have a lot to say as the Moon clashes with
Mars today; bite your tongue and listen. You may have quite a few words
of your own, but hear your partner out first. This can be a good day
for clearing up misunderstandings and making your feelings
understood... there has been a lot of that lately!
Beneficial colours are banana yellow and baby blue.
Lucky numbers are 23 and 32.
Fri Oct 16:
Happy At Home
- You'll be happy at home tonight as the Moon transits your
fourth house of home and family; however, your mate may want to go out on
the town. You'll be torn between what you want to do and what your most
significant other desires. Don't go out if you think you will be
miserable; that will only start a fight. Be honest about the way you
feel, and don't be hurt if you spend the evening alone this time.
Favourable colours are oyster and pale green.
Lucky numbers are 20 and 24.
Sat Oct 17:
Home Improvements
- With the Moon coursing through your fourth house of home and
family, it may be time to see about home improvements. Whether these
improvements are of the literal or spiritual kind, it is important to
remove decay and provide a sturdy foundation for your home and the ones
you share it with. Listen to what your family has to say and work
together to make your home a haven.
Favourable colours are sea green and apricot.
Lucky numbers are 4 and 22.
Sun Oct 18:
New Moon
- Today's New Moon helps you make a new beginning in family
matters; take this opportunity to re-evaluate your home life. If you
are having difficulties in a significant relationship, it could be more
about the past than the present. Take the time to work things out and
start by realising what was then, and what is now.
Beneficial colours are pale green and oyster.
Lucky numbers are 6 and 20.
Mon Oct 19:
Out Of Your Shell
- The Moon awakens your fifth house of romance and creativity,
making today a potentially fun and lighthearted day. This is a time for
new beginnings in love, so be open to a romantic renaissance. A picnic by
the shore or in the park will get things humming along nicely... be
willing to make the effort and it will pay off.
Auspicious colours are royal purple and crimson.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 24.
Tue Oct 20:
Affection Plus
- Some of you may be feeling especially romantic today, as the Moon
continues through Scorpio. Show this affection to the ones you love.
You may want to spend time with the children in your life; chances are
good they could use your wise advice now. Try to leave work just a little
bit early today so that you can enjoy the truly important things in life.
Financial benefits flow your way.
Auspicious colours are pale gold and crimson.
Lucky numbers are 5 and 25.
Wed Oct 21:
Service And Reward
- It's back to work you go, so clear your mind of dreams and
fancies and just get busy. You may appreciate this opportunity to
simply serve and work where you're needed. Many of you have had too
much time to think, lately and chores that involve very little skill will
be therapeutic today. Have a chat with God or Goddess while scrubbing out
the shower.
Fortunate colours are navy blue and pure white.
Lucky numbers are 15 and 23.
Thu Oct 22:
Creative Role
- You can take quite a creative role in your workplace today.
Even though there could be some conflict over money, you will find
imaginative solutions. Cleaning anything will lift you to your higher
ground, so take a deep breath and dive in. Conflict with older people may
suddenly arise.
Advantageous colours are cobalt blue and cream.
Lucky numbers are 32 and 41.
Fri Oct 23:
Partnerships Prosper
- The Moon meets powerful Pluto in Capricorn, transforming and
hopefully unblocking marriage and partnerships. As the Sun shines now
in sexy Scorpio, tonight would be perfect for a candlelit dinner for two.
It's just the thing to set some time aside to share your experiences, and
it's especially important to listen to your partner, who may have been
harbouring resentment.
Advantageous colours are teal blue and rose red.
Lucky numbers are 21 and 34.
Sat Oct 24:
Sharing And Giving
- Single crustaceans, and those who are married, will enjoy today's
romantic vibes. As the sexy Scorpio Sun embraces Pluto in your seventh
house of marriage and partnerships, you'll find it easier to express your
feeling of commitment and affection. This is a terrific day to play, so
avoid serious work if at all possible. The emphasis is on strengthening
close relationships through sharing, so be supportive for your loved ones
today.
Beneficial colours are pale aqua and soft peach.
Lucky numbers are 25 and 43.
Sun Oct 25:
Intense Note
- The Moon in your eighth house of sex, power and money turns the
day on an intense note. You may not be able to put your finger on it, but
your gut knows that something is going on. Play your cards close to
your chest today and pay attention to what is going on around you. By
tomorrow, you'll know what is going on behind the scenes.
Advantageous colours are ebony and emerald.
Lucky numbers are 8 and 17.
Mon Oct 26:
Strong Emotion
- The Moon and Mars create strong emotions as they battle across
your financial axis. Mars in your eighth house of sex and power
flavours the day with an edgy intensity. Your loyalty may be tested,
and you may find that someone you trusted has betrayed you. A younger
associate may be at odds with an older, confident person, placing you
in the middle of a power struggle. It's hard to play Switzerland at
this point in time, as being neutral will just work against you.
Favourable colours are red coral and slate grey.
Lucky numbers are 27 and 36.
Tue Oct 27:
Impressive Cancerians
- You may be under quite a bit of pressure at work, but this
makes your efforts even more impressive to those who are watching. A
benefactor or benefactress may be working to get you noticed, so
cooperate with those who have your best interests at heart. Don't
forget to take care of yourself properly or you won't have the energy
to follow through for others.
Auspicious colours are warm brown and sea green.
Lucky numbers are 24 and 43.
Wed Oct 28:
Deep Breaths
- It is easier for you to breathe again. The Moon enters Pisces and
your ninth house of travel and adventure today, lifting your spirits
and invigorating your intellect. Unwind tonight by watching the Travel
Channel or reading a book about far away places... it's time for a change
of scenery! Romantic communication is in the wind.
Beneficial colours are butterscotch and cream.
Lucky numbers are 30 and 33.
Thu Oct 29:
Experiment!
- The Moon in your house of adventure encourages you to
experiment with pleasure. Why not try a new restaurant for lunch or
dinner? Everyone needs a change of pace now and then, so try something
different. This is the time to make changes, as structured Saturn
enters Libra today, activating your zone of home and family, real
estate and new beginnings, after two and a half years in Virgo, your zone
of education, communication and local affairs. Saturn remains in Libra
until October 2012, so it's a major change of phase!
Fortunate colours are antique silver and salmon pink.
Lucky numbers are 4 and 7.
Fri Oct 30:
Boundaries
- The Moon moves from Pisces to Aries today, activating your
tenth house of career and status. Activities this evening may be
public, including going out with coworkers. You'll need to be on your
best behaviour, just in case any busybodies are watching. Of course you
are free to have fun, but sometimes we all need to be extra conscious
about boundaries when socializing.
Auspicious colours are basic black and aubergine.
Lucky numbers are 26 and 35.
Sat Oct 31:
Halloween
- The changing Moon enters Taurus and your eleventh house of
friendships, making this a lovely night to spend with your best pals.
Those of you who plan to dress up in costume on this Halloween might
consider these famous Cancer personalities: Julius Caesar, King Henry the
Eighth, Helen Keller, Ann Landers. More about Halloween!
Advantageous colours are rose pink and spring green.
Lucky numbers are 7 and 42.
