For Sunday, Sept. 30, 2012:

This year you feel far more fortunate than in the past. You also tend to rely more on your intellect. As a result, you always seem to come up with different solutions and new ideas. If you are single, you could meet someone who can challenge you, which you’ll find to be a rather attractive quality. If you are attached, the two of you need to share more time together.
