“Design is an essential game in which we pretend to be serious”

Cancer seems to be the heavens’ favourite this October. A lot of planets are in your favour, and starting on the 5th of October Saturn, the planet of challenges that has been testing you for the past two years, though not without reward, will give up its challenging orbit. Mercury signals a time of ferment, innovation and ability to communicate at work. Successful ideas will abound, your mind will be lucid and your goals clear. All this will of course benefit both Cancers in employment and those seeking a new job. But let us not forget the silent, revolutionary orbits of Pluto and Uranus: you must respond flexibly to change while keeping your sights focused on your goals. Take care in your relations with your superiors and the people in charge of hiring. The unemployed should take advantage of Mars’ favours in the first week of the month to put themselves forward boldly, with savoir faire. There is also plenty of economic gratification in store for you: Venus, a planet linked with small but gratifying monetary rewards, promises some extra income, payment of arrears, agreements for loans or deferred payments. In your sentimental life, Venus promotes new psychic and spiritual intensity for couples (especially those who have managed to keep up with Saturn), while singles will make some new encounters involving the mind, the senses and the heart alike. This would, however, be a good time to put an end to ambiguous, wearying relationships.
