For Wednesday, Sept. 16:

This year, note the forces behind the scene. In the process of learning what is going on with others, you also will learn what is going on with you. If you are single, check out any love interest before you dive into a relationship. If you are attached, the two of you will benefit from a lot of downtime together, without worldly concerns. A fellow Virgo understands you quite well.
