LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Not much has you excited or looking forward but, if you put an end to pending problems, you can concentrate on the things that mean a lot to you. So apologize, make amends or at least walk away and put the past behind you. 

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t give up when there is so much at stake. Put pressure on anyone standing in your way or causing you grief. You have too much riding on the decisions being made and the options being offered. 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may need to start backtracking if you have built up too much of an overhead and very little maneuverability. Don’t be afraid to call on people from your past for help. Be upfront and honest.
