Sieze the opportunity, make it grow

 

As we enter autumn, we head into the harvest season. Metaphorically as well, the result of what you sowed will be visible this week — September 30-October 6 — as per my tarot readings.

Some of you who have earnestly put in efforts behind your dreams will materialise them. 

Coinciding with the Navratri / Durga Puja festival, turning points are indicated for the Week Ahead. Growth energies are also on a high. 

How are you planning to use these opportunities?

With the Knights appearing in large numbers during the readings, matters should move swiftly.

How do you plan to capitalise on this insight?

The elemental tilt is more towards the earth, indicating that the changes could be robust as well as rigid. However, they may not necessarily be stable because seen from the numeric lens, the number 4 is conspicuous by its absence.

Under delusional energies (planet moon has appeared four times) which continue to hold their sway, one could either head towards renewal or a sudden disruption. The trick lies in making the right choices. Are you uplifting yourself or getting sucked in by negativity?

Importantly the pauses that you take to ponder and reflect on how far you’ve come, what progress you are making and where the road is leading, would keep you in good stead.

Check out your decan-specific tarot readings and comment if you have anything to share.

[Unlike other columns on zodiac signs, I make efforts every week to bring out decan-specific readings for the twelve Sun signs. Each zodiac sign (30 degrees) is divided into three decans (10 degrees). This makes the reading more focused and accurate. It also provides better cues for the collective whole.

First decan (September 23-October 2)
