You’re not fond of hearing that steady wins the race, but it’s the sentiment you’ll need to embrace this month — until you regain momentum on October 12, when Mars (your planetary ruler) enters Scorpio.

Instead of freezing people out of your life, offer them compassion and empathy. You may find that they’re willing to give others kindness — but they have to learn how to reciprocate the sentiment. The more positivity you radiate and project into situations and relationships, the easier it’ll be to make them work.
