This month’s sun sign
VIRGO
AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23

The passage of the powerful planet Pluto in aspect to your sign in recent months has totally transformed your sense of what's possible – and indeed, achievable – in business. But since the events that have brought about these changes have been quite dramatic, you're understandably feeling quite cautious. Your chart indicates that even more changes are in store this month, owing to a cycle of eclipses that begins on September 7 and continues until the 22nd. However, there's no need to panic. Whether you're aware of it or not, you're building totally new foundations for your work and career. So, if it seems you have no choice but to let go of certain key people or projects this month, just wish them well, and go with the flow.


LIBRA
september 24 - october 23

SCORPIO

Jupiter, the planet of business success, has been moving through your sign all year, bringing you many new opportunities to shine – but you need to get out and be sociable. September 6 and 20 are great days to expand your business circle.

SAGITTARIUS
NOVEMBER 24 - DECEMBER 21

PISCES
