Usher in the arrival of a new season with a game-changing fall bucket list and scroll down to see what the stars have in store for you in this week’s AstroStyle horoscope.
As the birthday celebrations start winding down, easing back into a more business-as-usual routine will be inevitable. Thankfully, your go-get-’em ‘tude makes networking with the higher-ups and planning out your next creative venture that much easier.

Libra: September 23 – October 22
It’s official: Libra season will be arriving this Thursday. Have you picked out the flavor of your birthday cake and snagged a venue for your epic bday shindig? Don’t get so caught up in gathering your BFFs for celebratory cocktails that you forget to treat yo’self to a luxury getaway for one or a weekend pampering sesh at your favorite spa.

Scorpio: October 23 – November 21
You, shy? Not during Libra season, you’re not! If there was ever a time to pack on the charm and slip on your after-hours-approved lace-up ghillies, it would be now. Don’t get so caught up in the blissful honeymoon stage that you start swapping heartfelt “I love yous” before you really mean it. In a long-term relationship? It’s true what they say: Absence really does make the heart grow fonder. A GNO (or two) with your squad is exactly what the doctor ordered.

Sagittarius: November 22 – December 21
Work hard, play harder: Allow this to be your mantra for the next few weeks as you learn to dial things down a bit. Put your workaholic tendencies on the back burner in lieu of group activities that allow you to let loose. Between apple picking dates at the orchard, a haunted hayride and Oktoberfest street fairs, you’ve got your fair share of fall rituals to pencil in.

Adventure awaits you, Aquarius! Roll up your sleeves and get ready for the ride of a lifetime — there’s no telling what the next few weeks could bring.

Pisces: February 19 – March 20
Single, coupled up or playing the field — your relationship status could very well change before the end of the workweek. Instead of playing the “are we or aren’t we” game, start dedicating more time to hanging with your boo. A romantic getaway for two or a spontaneous date night could shine new light into your relationship. Whatever you do: Don’t be THAT crazy girlfriend who reads too much into text messages or Facebook statuses. Capiche?

Gemini: May 21 – June 20
After a jam-packed few weeks, it’s time to s-l-o-w down and embrace a more streamlined lifestyle. Remember that it’s okay to opt out of a crazy Friday night in favor of a low-key evening at Chateau Gemini (Netflix and pizza are actually bae). If your messy living space is giving you daily panic attacks, then a little redecorating and game-changing feng shui may be in order.
