Horoscopes

If you are a peg, endure the knocking; if you are a mallet, strike, this Moroccan proverb relays both last month's struggles and this month's possibilities, but most of all it captures the strength of the Libra's soul when it comes to perseverance and patience. It all balances out, as you Libras know well, but this month the scales will tip in your emotional and financial favor if you begin uncovering the sources of last month's dismay.

In tarot, Ten of Wands shows a man carrying the ten heavy wands on his back. The man is often striving to walk uphill. This is your card this month, Libra, as all the energy and drive you had at the start of a long journey has finally run its course. You have mastered the goals you've set for yourself, in fact you have mastered them so well you are virtually the 'boss' now, and thus all the burden is yours as well.

Last month's dismay may have circled your professional life, whether we're talking about a corporate career or creative projects, as well as your personal life with friends or a significant loved one. Your are facing the culmination of last month's tensions and dramas as September begins, and as the month progresses you will be forced to question what you really want and who you really are now ? this is especially important as you've just crossed a spiritual finishing line, if you will, that marks the end of an old race and the beginning of a new outlook on life.

You have a serious month of soul-searching and decision-making ahead of you, but it will not all be an uphill struggle. At the month's end, if you are able to express the anxieties that you've been suppressing in a friendship or relationship, as well as allow yourself to relieve some of the work pressures by delegating your current project to co-workers and underlings, you might find yourself whistling a new tune as you enter this new realm of your spiritual journey. On the earthly side of things, these actions will allow you to pave the way for a raise or promotion on the career front, and regain a renewed attitude when it comes to a friendship or loved one with whom things have been nearing a stand-still. Last month you endured the knocking, but this month you will have the opportunity to strike once you figure out what it is you really want, Libra!
