Libra
(Sept 23-Oct 22)
You have long been a mediator between divided factions of your intimates, Libra, but lately it’s starting to feel more like a rope burn than a bridge. Try a little “choosing sides” on for size and see how satisfying it can be!

Famous Canadian Libras born this week:
Neve Campbell (actor, Oct. 3)
Amanda Walsh (actor, Oct. 3)
Patrick Roy (hockey player, Oct. 5)
Mario Lemieux (hockey player, Oct. 5)
Rachel McAdams (actor, Oct. 7, pictured)

Scorpio (Oct 23-Nov 21)
Scorpio’s inner voice has been crying out louder and louder for attention lately, wanting to call people out on their bullshit and demanding an accelerated supply of chocolate. Listen to this voice, unless the people you’re calling out are the same ones who hook you up with the Ritter Sport bars.

Sagittarius (Nov 22-Dec 21)
Though you may not have psychic powers per se, Sagittarius, you may still qualify as one of those rare types who can actually predict their own behaviour and still ignore the option of circumventing it for the right thing. Luckily you’re a tortured artist, so this totally provides you lots of fodder.

Capricorn (Dec 22-Jan 19)
There have definitely been some social repercussions from your latest decision to quit drinking in favour of raw foodism, Capricorn, but only from people who don’t know you well enough to realize you’re going to change your mind back in about a month.

Aquarius (Jan 20-Feb 18)
Aquarius getting in — and generously sharing — everybody’s business isn’t new, but you might want to tone down the gossip skills now that your new employer is following your Twitter stream.

Pisces (Feb 19-March 20)
On the one hand, Pisces is sad to see the leaves falling off the trees and feel that first chill of the season take hold of his bones. On the other, if it’s too cold to go out, he no longer has to pretend he wants to talk to other human beings. Sweet!

Aries (March 21-April 19)
Grumpy, careerist Aries finds new friends this week while on a quest to divert others from her chosen climbing route to the top. Their allegiance to you should be advantageous at least for as long as you can remember which one of them is named Bambi and which one is Cheyenne.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Optimism is hard to muster during a Mercury retrograde cycle that fills you so full of regret you can barely tie your shoes in the morning, but buck up: if the worst is behind you, perhaps you can be less conservative and withholding when future opportunities to get in on the ground floor of the next big gum-eraser-factory-to-lucrative-loft development present themselves. I mean, if you aren’t still bankrupt.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
There’s a silver lining to most missed connections, Gemini, but probably not yours this week when a Dufferin bus containing the only woman who could ever truly love you blows past you at your stop, splashing mud onto your Dockers.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)
It’s amazing how differently people have treated Cancer since he started wearing a kilt. Doors are opening socially and literally, but, best of all, it has distracted everyone from discussing your marital problems.

Leo (July 23-Aug 22)
Gregarious Leo has great luck this week in financial matters. By which the stars are specifically referring to scratch-off tickets purchased at the Kingston service plaza on the eastbound side of the 401.

Virgo (Aug 23-Sept 22)
Virgo hasn’t called her mother in a long time, but it’s not because she’s been busy; it’s just because everything in her life would shame the entire family. This wouldn’t be a bad time to just steal your roommate’s identity, actually.
