Let it all hang out. Expressive Mercury moves into Libra, your honest-to-a-fault ninth house, until September 28, removing any and all filters. (As Tallulah Bankhead famously said, “Nobody can be exactly like me. Even I have a hard time doing it.”) Fortunately, Libra is a diplomatic energy, so you won’t become totally tactless as you trumpet the news of an unclothed emperor or a giant pink elephant in the room. Although blunt, your offbeat and outrageous sense of humor is your saving grace. The truth is often hilarious, so don’t forget to laugh at yourself and the absurdity of it all. Socially, this Mercury phase calls for cross-cultural connections. You’ll be attracted to people from different backgrounds and other parts of the world. The next few weeks are a fine time to pick up some conversational phrases of a foreign language (fire up the Rosetta Stone CDs!) or nurture a friendship with someone you met on the road. When searching for, well, anything, be sure to look outside your area code…and maybe your country code, too! Romantic Venus changes signs on Tuesday, moving into “let’s mate for life” Scorpio, your ambitious tenth house. Your desire for a long-term partner could heat up again, and you’re ready to have those talks about the future, i.e. when you’ll be sitting side by side in rocking chairs as your grandchildren frolic in the yard. As fun as it is to dream, we must issue a future-tripping alert. Do you know this person well enough to plan a happily ever after? One step at a time, to avoid your own commitmentphobic backlash. Letting relationships develop organically is THE way to ensure that you don’t freak yourself out when they get seriously serious. If you’re attached, this Venus phase helps you reprioritize. Has your connection become more businesslike than sensual? It feels great to accomplish and co-create: supporting your sweetie’s dreams (and vice versa) is a major aphrodisiac for you. But it’s possible you’ve both taken on a little too much. Now is the time to streamline and simplify, making romance as much of a goal as, say, remodeling the kitchen or finishing your Ph.D. After all, sweet love is the fuel in your tanks, lending a magical quality to everything else you’re doing. On Wednesday, your attention turns to a potentially major career coup, as hardworking Saturn aligns with the moon’s North Node (the cosmic destiny point) in Scorpio and your success zone. Years of hard work could culminate in an awfully exciting way. You may finally have that “A-ha!” moment about what your life purpose. An industry heavyweight could open the pearly gates, just for you. Hello, heavenly opportunity! Pinch yourself, this really IS happening. And there will be some hard work to go along with it, too, so while you’re at it, roll up those Alexander McQueen sleeves. Once your career is set, the weekend brings a partnership focus. With lusty Mars and daring Uranus exchanging friendly fire, you’re feisty and turned on. Flirt with wild abandon, and let your quirky side out to play. The right person for you will jump right in, matching your humor and giving it right back to you. If you’re in a relationship, slip off for a playdate (bonus if there’s an overnight component). You might even rent a swanky downtown hotel room, so you can stay out late at a live show, afterhours club, and 24-hour diner, celebrating life ‘til the sun peeks over the horizon.
