Horoscopes today – Russell Grant’s star sign forecast for October 9

Aries

Any problems experienced at this time are more likely to be linked with business activities than family ones. At home all seems to be going smoothly. Outside the home, stay alert as some opportunities won’t be easy to spot yet it will be those hidden ones that bring most rewards. Delve a little more deeply and you will find answers.

Taurus

You’re getting too bogged down with trivial details when if it isn’t working, you might find it easier to forget it and get on with other things. As well as not seeing eye to eye with someone you usually get on well with, you might find it hard to forget their words of disapproval.

Gemini

Workmates and teammates are filled with excitement. Something is going on that is adding a touch of hope and positivity to your day. Routine matters will be easily accomplished and this will give you a chance to find fulfilment elsewhere.

Cancer

Be prepared to present schemes and projects that will require other people’s support. Give as detailed a demonstration as you can. Don’t be shy about asking for a special favour from a friend or relative. You’ve done plenty for them in the past and they will be happy to oblige.

Leo

The most interesting events and activities going on now will be those close to your home or within your neighbourhood. So if you aren’t keen on some people’s ideas and suggestions or you don’t want to travel, the simple answer is: say so.

Virgo

You don’t want to take on more than you can comfortably handle or cope with. Normally you are careful and cautious about making promises but to please someone you might make them an impulsive offer. It would be better to think about it first.

Libra

Stay in the background and you will find out more than you would have done had you remained at the centre of the stage. Someone knows how to confuse you and they’re throwing in so many facts that you will find it hard to decide on what to do.

Scorpio

A need to get on and finish a difficult task will overshadow your other concerns. You will prefer to leave routine jobs for someone else to do. No matter what other people might expect, demand or request of you, what’s important is that you go with what is right for you.

Sagittarius

Trivial problems of no real consequence should not be allowed to make you disheartened. Your conscience drives you to push ahead in your work but if you need it, you should take a break. Head for places off the beaten track if you are travelling today.

Capricorn

You need to be in strong control of your feelings. Count to ten before reacting in stressful situations. You have some important matters to decide on. You will not have expected to have got caught up in an emotional scene that causes a regrettable outburst.

Aquarius

Change is in the air. Although you will feel slightly nervous about what is to come you will also be eagerly anticipating new beginnings. News received early on will bring an excuse to celebrate as you draw closer to your nearest and dearest.

Pisces

You are keen to delve more deeply into spiritual matters but currently your busy schedule will not allow this. A number of projects will involve you. With so much going on you never seem to stop and because of this you should be careful not to take on any more.
