Weekly Horoscope for October 16: Kiss and Mean It!

A dazzling week for passion, pleasure, and romance lies ahead as you dance forward. The planets above will spin in ecstasy, dripping honey and magic down upon the world below. Venus, our planet of marriage and attraction, will remain in the zodiac sign of Libra for one final week, offering her blessings to our partnerships and relationships. Whenever our goddess planet flows gracefully through these hallowed halls, we have a higher likelihood of meeting meaningful connections that will mirror us back. They can be in love, business, or collaboration. Commitments and unions more easily find us at this time.

MANTRA

Everyone deserves love, romance, and commitment — especially you.

ZODIAC SIGN RATINGS

Big opportunities lie ahead for Taurus, Libra, and Capricorn this week. While the earth signs will all enjoy Venus’s flight through the sky, Taurus and Capricorn could enjoy this most. Venus, as the planetary ruler of the Bull, always takes extra special care to protect their interests. For now, Bulls will find an easier work-life balance, more harmony on the job, or even praise for their assignments. Capricorns could see applause and showers of praise this week, too — perhaps even new offers. Yet, for Libra, the focus will be on pure bliss, beauty, and pleasure as Venus shimmers through the sky. Focus more on personal goals rather than professional ones, as our Lesser Benefic, first and foremost, wants to make you happy.
