Here is your horoscope for the week of Monday, September 9, 2024.
Aries
You’re a powerhouse, Aries. And after battling some rocky terrain lately, you’ll be ready to get back into your groove and plow through your to-do list this week. If you have your eye on tackling any larger projects, you may want to enlist your loved ones for some extra assistance — just be sure that you really sell them on your plan before you start delegating. Meanwhile, it’ll be in your best interest to keep your opinions to yourself during this period, as even your most well-intentioned thoughts could come out wrong. Self-editing can help you avoid any awkwardness or confusion.
Taurus
Embrace your vulnerability, Taurus. This week, you’re encouraged to speak from the heart and focus on connecting with people on a more meaningful level. You may even find that opening up inspires you to be more courageous in other avenues of your life. Take advantage of this energy to pursue any creative or personal goals that may have previously felt out of reach. Meanwhile, if a loved one reaches out to you with a problem, ensure that your thoughts are well-constructed before you dole out any advice — poorly chosen words could quickly lead to hurt feelings if you’re not careful.
Gemini
Does it feel like you’re being pulled in multiple directions, Gemini? This week, try to give yourself some room to breathe. Then, if you need a little guidance on where to go next, you may find it helpful to tap into your partnerships.

Use this moment to take an honest look at your spending and brainstorm ways to tighten your purse strings. Then, on the weekend, your charisma will be at an all-time high. Have fun flexing your flirtation skills and capturing the heart of anyone who crosses your path.
Cancer
