Stargazing- Weekly Element Forecast-Sept. 7th

Get ready to cope with miscommunication, computer mishaps, and travel delays this week, Air Signs. On Monday Mercury, the mischievous planet that governs your mind and communication matters, turns retrograde in Libra the sign of the scales. A legal issue you thought was settled pops back up again. For the next several weeks, you’ll need to check that you have your travel documents in hand before you leave your house, and be prepared to encounter delays and alterations to your travel itinerary. Hold on to your inner resources this week, because you’re going to need to call on them frequently. You’ll find yourself experiencing a very dry patch in terms of inspiration. In addition, you’ll encounter a lot of mishaps with your computer and correspondence, not to mention when you attempt to communicate with others. For the next three weeks your best bet will be to corral your scattered energy a bit and make every effort to pay extra attention to your words and actions. This isn’t a good time to move to another residence or buy a vehicle. This particular Mercury retrograde period promises to teach you about patience!  Don’t believe everything a close associate says to you on Friday, as Venus in Leo opposes extravagant Jupiter in Aquarius.

Before you agree to paint your Aunt’s garage, make sure you fully intend to show up on time, paint brush in hand, or you’ll be dealing with a very disgruntled family member for quite a while.

You may want to escape from your daily routine for a while and lose yourself in an activity that really holds your interest. Your sense of optimism returns as well. Make a wish over the weekend!

Your Love Week – Water Signs:
It’s important that you step into the shadows initially this week. Don’t let that irritating Capricorn push your buttons. Relationships, whether with friends or lovers, can inspire you, although you’re apt to be a bit wary of newcomers. No need to worry; this skepticism will pass quickly. Go out somewhere social to alleviate the tension. Does it feel like people are drawn to you lately? Are you attracting men and women alike? It’s no surprise, as the planets assure your magnetism and everyone has noticed. Strike up a conversation with a stranger. Listen very closely to what this person has to say and watch the body language intently. Someone is testing your patience and it’s having a deleterious effect on your love life. Simply walk away from this, for it will pass. It’s not worth opening old wounds by being a sour puss around your sweetie. In fact, a flash of insight will allow you to understand your sweetie’s recent anger. There is much to learn in the realm of love.

Your partner or friend isn’t going to see the situation you’re both dealing with from your point of view and you need to accept that.
