Horoscopes today – Russell Grant’s star sign forecast for October 1

Aries

You have a lot going on today and this can, at times, feel overwhelming. That’s why you need to be mindful of how you direct your energy. Remember, you don’t always need to take on the role of the hero. Just be sure to treat yourself to some emotional self-care once your tasks are complete.

Taurus

Financial worries might put a damper on your enjoyment today and that could affect your mood. While you may not be able to splurge right now, it doesn’t mean you have to abandon your plans completely. You can still keep things simple and enjoyable. Plus, chatting with a friend could lift your spirits.

Gemini

Mood swings could cause friction with your family or someone special in your life. Instead of letting their actions get under your skin, consider keeping yourself occupied with a productive task or enjoying the company of friends. Remember to establish some boundaries.

Cancer

You might find it hard to focus today, especially when you’d prefer to be enjoying your own activities or maybe even catching up on some sleep. It’s a good idea to take things slow. Remember to be kind to yourself and make sure to take breaks to relax whenever you need to.

Leo

You’re starting to realise that a dream is out of reach right now and this is all down to not being able to afford it and tension in a team. This doesn’t mean you should abandon your desires. Instead, consider a new strategy which might involve letting go of some of that need for control.

Virgo

Unusual for you perhaps but you crave recognition and compliments regarding your work or how others see you. The acknowledgment you seek may not come as easily as you hope. Remember, though, that it’s important to appreciate your own efforts, as relying on external approval won’t always make you feel good.

Libra

Something is making you heavy-hearted and this means you won’t be feeling your usual, cheerful self. Worries or doubts that are on your mind are making the situation seem more daunting than it actually is. Asking someone for their thoughts could help you see things in a new light.

Scorpio

You are starting an exciting new adventure, and it’s essential to travel light as you go. This means it’s time to let go of things that no longer serve you. Think of today as the beginning of an exciting new chapter in your life. Take this chance to rid yourself of things you no longer need.

Sagittarius

Turning a blind eye to someone’s bad behaviour can lead to trouble. Don’t contribute to their self-destruction. A single disapproving look can speak volumes. If they keep letting you down, it might be a good idea to put some space between the two of you.

Capricorn

To advance in life, start working on developing your skills and think about adding to your qualifications. Set small, achievable goals otherwise you will find yourself stuck in the same place with no sense of moving forward. You could never feel content being stuck in a rut.

Aquarius

You might feel like you’re being stretched in multiple directions due to work pressures and the needs of a loved one. It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed, but remember, you don’t have to let it get the best of you. Set limits on how much you take on and take some time for yourself to recharge.

Pisces

It will seem as if you and a romantic or professional partner just aren’t on the same page. This makes you feel unsupported in your current efforts. Don’t let this discourage you. Keep in mind that you have the power to set your own rules on how you live your life.
