Happy Birthday Virgo

There are many exciting changes in store for all you Virgo StarScopers, due to the eclipses this fall that offer opportunities and unexpected challenges. But mostly, these turn of events will be for your best. The first eclipse, September 7th, influences relationships. Single or attached, there could quite possibly be a change in your "relationship" status. If you're single, the possibility of meeting your significant other is quite favorable. The eclipse on the 22nd falls in your sign. Therefore, it will have a major influence over all areas of your life; including work, health, family, money, and love. If you've been coasting, wishing for a big break or for something wonderful to happen, the eclipse will bring something to life. There could also be some sort of ending to deal with as well. The universe will take something "away" to make room for something new.....perhaps a relationship, a job, etc, Whatever the change, you probably have gotten a preview of what the universe wants to bring you in previous weeks. This fall, you should see an increase in your personal finances which come in handy in 2007 when many of you will go house hunting. The biggest joy comes from your home and family. November's full moon brings the opportunity for long distance travel. December offers an exciting career move if you're ready. If not, before your next birthday, you get a second chance to to move up the career ladder. One thing is for sure, your life is about ready to change! Are you ready?

Saving and Spending
The Zodiac Signs and Finances

By Maria Shaw

After love, the biggest question I get asked from clients on my weekly radio call-in show is about personal finances and money. Each sun sign spends different, has different values and looks at the "green stuff" in his/her own unique way. So let's take a look at what type of spender or saver you are! I've included a little money forecast for each zodiac sign as well.

Aries - Spend, spend, spend ! Impulsive Aries live for the moment and their spending style is as such too. If they want it, they buy it; often not thinking about their financial obligations next week, only concerning themselves with the thrill of their purchase power at the moment. However, if you can curb your impulses and learn how to invest wisely, there's no stopping the amount of money you can amass. You're not afraid to work hard toward a financial goal.It seems whenever you need money for something, you will somehow come up with a way to get your hands on exactly the amount you need!

Fall Finance Forecast: You'll have some wonderful opportunities to save a bundle or snag a great deal this fall. If you're in the market for a new car or ready to make a large purchase, before the end of November is the time to get more for less. Just be extra careful with risky investments and stay out of the casinos for at least another year.

Taurus - This is one of, if not, the most money minded signs of all the zodiac. Financial security is very important to you. Even though Taurus enjoy nice things and tend to choose quality over quantity, they make sure they have money in the bank for a rainy day. Most bulls have a pension plan, a Christmas club account and other sorts of investments or real estate holdings. If you're a Taurus who isn't good with money, it's probably a safe bet, you have a partner who makes good money!

Fall Finance Forecast - You've been learning a great deal about how to deal with debt; what you owe and what others owe you. You likely do not want to owe anything now; even a car payment! Rest assured, later this fall, begins a new cycle, that gives you the opportunity to pay off much of the debt you have accrued. It will also be a great time to negotiate good rates and prices on things. Your partner will also see an increase in their income within the next 13 months.

Gemini - You tend to worry about money a lot because that is your nature. But remember you have two sides to your personality; the side that can save paycheck after paycheck and the other side, that will blow it all in one day if you get the urge to splurge. You need to learn to rein in that free wheelin' side from time to time. Your gift for gab and quick thinking will always be a great benefit in making deals. Many astrologers say that Gemini make the best used car salesmen!

Fall Finance Forecast : After a lousy two years with money woes, things could be clearing up for Twins. This fall will offer you a chance to improve your financial standings, especially from late October and November as a nice Jupiter transit trine to your solar money house will help your cash flow. Be sure to consider any opportunity that comes your way during this specific period.

Cancer - There are more self made millionaires born under the sign of Cancer the Crab than any other zodiac sign. You think it would be Leo or Taurus but no, it's you! Why? Because Cancers intuitively know what the public needs and wants and are excellent promoters. So your key to financial success many times comes from owning a business. Although many Cancers are hoarders and tend to be frugal, there are just as many who will go all out and buy things for people they love and they especially put lots of money into their homes and real estate.

Fall Finance Forecast - Better hold on tight to any extra money you have.Put some away from a rainy day and don't dare blow money on things you really don't need. You are under a harsh aspect for finances all fall and until next September. This period is a learning lesson. You will learn to do more with less. When this cycle lifts next late next year, you will not have to go through it again for 30 years! Money comes in and goes right back out until then.

Leo - Lions are know to have the biggest hearts in all the zodiac and they love to spend money...on themselves and those they love. They are generous to a fault. They are also known to be shopaholics. Leos, being the royalty of the zodiac, hate to deny themselves anything and seldom do. They have very good taste and are apt to buy the designer duds with high price tags. However, they can't pass up a good sale either!

Fall Finance Forecast- Early fall looks good for money. However, the eclipse on the 22nd of September in the money sector of your solar astro chart suggests a change in income. Eclipses can be wildcards....this means you will either be making lots of extra dough or spending it! It's hard to predict on eclipses, but there will likely be some sort of change in your income this fall. Notice the subtle signs the first few weeks of September as to what the eclipse will bring you. By all means, start a savings plan now because a year from now, your finances could get tight.

Virgo - These folks can squeeze a dollar out of a dime and can smell a good sale a mile away. Bargain hunters at heart, they love to snag a good deal. You have a tendency to save money and are very picky about what you purchase. Your biggest issue is loaning money to others to help them out. Often, times you are taken advantage of!

Fall Finance Forecast - September and October look good for money, especially October if you are working together with your mate on a financial plan or have a business partner. If not, there are still new ways to increase you income if you are willing to look at alternatives and think out of the box.

Libra - You try to balance everything in your life but sometime balancing your checkbook can be tough. You love to entertain or spend money on entertainment and nice clothes too. The Libra ladies love perfume, makeup-nice clothes, purses, shoes and the list goes on and on. As long as you have a plan; a solid plan in place, you will be fine. Each week, you should deposit so much into your account, pay the bills and the rest is left for your enjoyment. But seldom do Libra think of saving for the future. Start a savings plan this fall.

Fall Finance Forecast - This fall could be spectacular for money. If you play your cards right, between now and Thanksgiving is wonderful for money. Look for new ways to increase your income. Money could come from surprises sources. Raise your prices. Ask for a raise. Go for the green!

Scorpio - You don't mind paying a lot of money for something you deem important and necessary but on other items, you could care less. You also probably hide money and have a secret bank account or some cash stashed in a suit pocket or in safety deposit box. No one knows exactly how much money you actually have or make. You worry about finances from time to time and always try to get the best deal around.

Fall Finance Forecast - Late November kicks off a 13 month cycle that is one of the best ever for financial gain. Now, you could also find yourself spending a great deal of money too. But overall, you may find rouse spending money to make money. Or you could find yourself making very large yet very important purchases like a new house!

Sagittarius - Ruled by abundant Jupiter, you were apt to think money grew on trees when you were younger. You could easily find yourself in debt in your twenties but as you age, you tend to become much more financial savvy and because you are born lucky, things seems to drop in your lap when you need help the most. You could acquire lots of nice things and financial freedom just by being at the right place at the right time and having such an optimist attitude.

Fall Finance Forecast - After two years of heavy debt, things you should be able to breathe a little easier now. Make plans this fall to set yourself up for financial opportunity in 2007. Make important contacts now. Gambling looks good around the full moon on October 5th. Taking risks may pay off then!

Capricorn - You can be very cautious with purchases and prefer to buy things on sale. Some friends and family members may call you "cheap" and yes, you can be frugal but when it comes to helping those you love, you do tend to have a generous heart.. However, you are still good with money. You are careful and weigh large purchases. Cappys tend to be quite traditional and live within their means. If they afford to pay cash for something, they will. If not, they will think twice.

Fall Finance Forecast - You will be more frugal than ever this fall as your bills, taxes, insurance and unexpected expense rise. As long as you live within your means, you will be fine. So, don't worry. This trend will not last forever. Just make cuts and changes where you can.

Aquarius - Having a lack of money,will never stop you from buying something you want.It may take you a little longer to get the object of your desires, but rest assured you'll get it! You either have lots of cash or fall short. There is no in between. Due to your ruling planet, being Uranus, you are quite the saver and the spender....constantly changing your habits depending on your mood.

Fall Finance Forecast - Expect the unexpected is your motto regarding money. Easy come, easy go, could be too. The fall eclipse in your solar second house of money has a lot to do with unexpected changes. Late October and November, a nice Jupiter transit/trine to your money house hit and could bring big bucks.

Pisces - There are more millionaires born under your sign than any other. (More self made under the sign of Cancer). You intuitively can draw money to you but you can also spend like crazy too! For some Pisces, there are no boundaries when it comes to shopping. But once you find a balance, there is no stopping you in getting the best out of life, material wise- However, you must be careful of people taking advantage of you. I have counseled many Pisces you have lost money to ex spouses, business partners and friends. So being forewarned can help you be forearmed.

Fall Finance Forecast - October could be a lucky month for you. Consider all of your financial options and look for new ways to increase your income. Even though you may not end with cash in hand, you could save money in many ways. Any new idea that you develop this fall, could pay off next spring and summer.

Have a wonderful week!
