Star Gazing
Horoscope for September 2008
By Dan Liebman
Gwyneth Paltrow
SIGN: Libra
BORN: September 27, 1972
WHERE: Los Angeles, California
Virgo
August 23 - September 22
You’re less routine-oriented and more willing to take a novel approach at work. The result? Lots of applause, but some resentment. A friend is reluctant to ask for support — it’s up to you to make the first gentle move. Late September sees small financial gains.
Libra
September 23 - October 22
You help make an awkward situation easier for someone. It’s no coincidence that your own life gets a boost — perhaps you receive a bonus — by the end of September. You’ll be dealing with a medical or other new professional. Give the relationship time to warm up.
Scorpio
October 23 - November 21
It’s a month of validation. People realize what a good judge of character you are. They also see how decent your motives have been. Expansion is a theme this month. Your circle of friends expands, and you make your personal environment less claustrophobic.
Sagittarius
November 22 - December 22
Expect delays during the first two weeks of the month, but use this period to renew a friendship and work on your appearance. Your recent research leads to a smart financial move around the 19th. The last two weekends are great for the arts, whether you’re in the audience or on stage.
Capricorn
December 23 - January 20
Even the simplest business dealings can be tricky. Read the small and large print, and don’t hold back from asking obvious questions. Clear your plate before taking on yet another obligation. Late month sees you rekindle a one-time romance or friendship.
Aquarius
January 21 - February 19
Pick your battles, only a few are worth fighting now. A job proves more demanding (and stimulating) than expected. A young relative helps you make a key decision. Business, pleasure and travel — or two out of three of them — mix very well.
Pisces
February 20 - March 20
Your people skills are outstanding. You bring together feuding relatives and take charge at meetings. You’re vulnerable around the 15th, when you can reveal professional or personal secrets. Around the 23rd, you receive something you asked for months ago.
Aries
March 21 - April 20
The first two weeks of September are a good time to reconnect with a former colleague. The full moon of the 15th launches a period of enhanced prestige. Watch out for a tendency to go overboard — with spending, gifts and rich foods — between the 23rd and the 30th.
Taurus
April 21 - May 22
You can satisfy your natural curiosity by signing up for a fall course. Since you’re the zodiac’s money sign, something finance-related might be suitable. Unless you can handle an opinionated partner, stay clear of joint ventures during the last 10 days of the month.
Gemini
May 23 - June 21
You take charge of a family situation and prevent a disaster at work. After a recent loss, you see signs
of a small profit. You make several critical choices about an event coming up later this fall.
Cancer
June 22 - July 22
Don’t write anyone off too quickly — people show their affection in unexpected ways. It’s a good month to organize family gatherings, but be sure to be inclusive, and expect fireworks. The last two weeks are good for short trips and fashion makeovers.
Leo
July 23 - August 22
A new friendship gathers momentum thanks to an intellectual connection. The 12th marks the beginning of a shift in your political views. Aim to complete a project by the third week of September.
