Money doesn't always bring you happiness. All those people who've won around £15, 000, 000 on a Saturday punt with the National Lottery aren't any happier than the less lucky ones who only got £14, 000, 000.
Sun Sign: Libra/Venus
Decanate: Libra/Mercury; Numbers: 3, 4
Charming, persuasive October 21 is more interested in a grand chase across the skies, his chariot in sparking pursuit of a fleeing space capsule. But when the thing that was so desired is netted, the chariot wheels around and drives away. Or worse, leaves another, lesser huntsman to net the prey.
WeVe all met and fallen for Mr and Mrs Fancy Tongue. And weVe all watched in horror at work how, when the field is won, some other colleague has to wind up a deal, often starting from scratch in the knowledge stakes. Mr Persuasive watches from sidelines, observes an inevitable cock-up, then maybe saunters back and with a quick and expert flick of the whip, puts things right.
What both sexes should know, is that the rest of the world long for them to stay in charge. People want their charisma, to see the star glitter sparks spin from their chariot wheels. Don't want to be put in the charge of a sergeant at arms.
We're going away from Libra now and soon we'll meet Scorpio, but this shying away at the last moment is a true Libran characteristic, which sometimes even disturbs its owner. The urge to leave when something is not quite finished. In love this is a problem for those with easily given hearts, because October 21 hunts down his target and then shys away, bored. Indeed, boredom in love is one of the emotions that most worries both sexes born on this day. They long for the all embracing love which will drive them on forever, the true romantic, burning fire, and they listen with increasing dread for the first breath of boredom to come creeping in on the wind.
Many do find their one true love and stick with it. Others go off to travel the world restlessly, and there, far away in some exotic corner, is the love of their life, waiting. Then they never come back.
Your head rules your heart, except in romantic relationships. You try to take a rational approach to love, but when Mr. or Ms. Right comes along, you’re as prone to being swept off your feet as any other Libra native. Instead of stopping to analyze your feelings, you jump right in and get involved. As long as your mate offers you lots of intellectual stimulation, you should get along fine. Problems may arise if you get bored and decide you want time to pursue your own interests. The partner who respects your need for freedom is the one who gets to keep you.
In your bedroom encounters, friendship and good communication are as important to you as romance. As far as you’re concerned, a relationship must grow and change in order to remain viable over the long term. An innovative lover, you get off on trying new moves that can add spice to your sex life. Because giving is as important to you as receiving, you’re not really content unless you know that your bedmate is also satisfied.
Recent research shows that a fry-up makes you friendly but slow-witted. Bad news for breakfast sausage eating people born today, so proud of their verbal agility and quick thinking. Indeed a fatty breakfast could make the difference between an A or B grade at A level. New research has shown that a group of people recently fed with 360 calories of fat were unable to concentrate for more than three minutes when shown a computer screen and asked to press the space bar whenever a zero appeared. A control group, not fed with fat were able to concentrate for longer -but weren't as friendly.
You thrive on a whirl of parties and social happenings. Sharing an evening out on the town with your lover puts you in a relaxed mood for the intimacy to follow. You are turned on by the sexual tension that builds between you while you’re in the company of others. Once back behind closed doors, your mutual desire surfaces in a blaze of passion.
Money doesn't always bring you happiness. All those people who've won around £15, 000, 000 on a Saturday punt with the National Lottery aren't any happier than the less lucky ones who only got £14, 000, 000.
Self-expression is your forte, and you’re a superb conversationalist. Because you are naturally entertaining and interesting, you are welcome in virtually any group. Moreover, you thoroughly enjoy spending time in sociable company. You like being in the spotlight and want to be accepted and well thought of by your friends and acquaintances.
