"I'm for mystery, not interpretive answers... The answer is never the answer. What's really interesting is the mystery. If you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. I've never seen anybody really find the answer, but they think they have. So they stop thinking. But the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. The need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer."
-- Ken Kesey

If Your Birthday is Sept. 17
(The Day of Perseverance) | Virgo Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
It's been an interesting few years, with barely a dull moment. Yet your real process of transformation is just getting going. You are being challenged by the universe to be yourself and only yourself at all times. Ultimately this is your only option, though it will come as a relief when you throw out anything but your actual being and reality.

Written in the Planets
As Amanda Painter discussed in her Thursday article, Ceres squaring Uranus today might serve as a reminder to consider (or reconsider) your habits around eating, nutrition and health. It might also draw attention to how the disembodying effect of the internet has influenced our relationship to food and to the planet itself. Cooking a good meal from scratch, getting out among lots of growing green entities or simply doing something kind are all useful ways of grounding, should you need it.

In the Shadow of the Moon, the exciting 2017 Midyear Reading by Eric Francis, is now published. The video readings for all 12 signs cover the Great American Eclipse of Aug. 21 and well beyond. We'll be increasing the price again very soon, so don't hesitate to order your copy here. You can also now choose your individual signs here.

Daily Horoscope for September 17, 2017 | By Eric Francis Coppolino

If Today is Your Birthday

It’s been an interesting few years, with barely a dull moment. Yet your real process of transformation is just getting going. You are being challenged by the universe to be yourself and only yourself at all times. Ultimately this is your only option, though it will come as a relief when you throw out anything but your actual being and reality. You share a birthday with Anne Bancroft, John Ritter, and Danielle Brooks.

Aries (March 20-April 19) -- There are moments when your true path finds you. That may be true at the moment, though the clue to what is the right thing may be unfamiliarity and tension rather than ease. Let yourself be attracted to what challenges you, and what seems above your level of ability.

In the Shadow of the Moon, the exciting new 2017 Midyear Reading by Eric Francis, has just been published. Don't miss this essential guide to life after the Great American Eclipse. Order all 12 signs here (recommended), or choose your individual signs.

Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- There comes a point when it’s necessary to declare anyplace you are as your proper place on Earth. You might be in Tokyo, you might be in the Bronx. Where you are at this moment is the place you belong, and where you need to be. And you can get anywhere from anywhere.

Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- The time has come to leave certain conflicts behind you, whether these have roots in ancient history, recent history or both. Anger may serve as something that initiates action, but beyond that point, its use is served rather quickly. Fortunately, you have more creative inspirations available.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- This week, it’ll be helpful if you stick close to your journal, and write at least once a day. So much is happening in the world, in your world, and within you. You have the distinct power to sort things out by writing about them. Not everyone has this gift, and you’re fortunate to possess it.

This is a unique year for you, Leo. The biggest events, of course, were the recent total solar eclipse in Leo and its companion lunar eclipse in your relationship house (Aquarius). But that pair of events was only the beginning -- and Eric designs each Birthday Reading to cover all your most pivotal astrology well into next year.

Are you navigating changes in your relationships or family paradigm? Do you find yourself at a career crossroads? Are you seeking clarity, encouragement and new perspectives on your creativity, self-esteem, sexuality or healing process? You'll find ideas and reassurance in this reading.

"I have just listened to your Part 1 and Part 2 readings and I am amazed at how accurate it has been. Like you have a telescope watching me shed a skin and transform into a totally changed person in the last 10 years."
-- Pauline Jones

Your reading is now priced at $44 and we've just published it in full; so you'll want to order your 2017 Leo Reading very soon -- definitely before the price increases again. This reading is designed to work for anyone with Leo Sun, Leo rising and even Leo Moon -- and makes an amazing gift.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- Be aware that you may be approaching an emotionally intense situation, though a deeply meaningful one. See if you can bypass the intensity and stick with the meaning. You have an opportunity for healing, and a moment to consider the ways in which you want or need that.

Your 2017-18 Leo Birthday Reading by Eric is now complete and available for instant access. This is a seminal year for Leo Sun, rising and Moon, especially with the recent powerful solar eclipse in your sign. Make this dynamic energy work for you -- order your reading today.

Virgo Birthdays 2017:

Find Your Passion for Growth

"If you're getting the message to grow and to become, find your passion for growth. Passion means feeling, beauty, angst, love, confusion, pain and discovery: the things you discover in every meaningful endeavor."
-- Eric Francis Coppolino in the 2017 Book of Your Life reading for Virgo

Dear Reader with Virgo Sun, Rising or Moon:

What messages to "grow and become" did you receive between the two August eclipses? Are you still trying to figure that out, or maybe planning your next steps?

Recent weeks have been interesting and intense for just about everyone, though it's possible they've felt especially curious for you.

On Sept. 5, you had the unique experience of your ruling planet, Mercury, stationing direct in the same cryptic, hidden-away section of your chart where the total solar eclipse occurred on Aug. 21. All of it comes together to begin your next year in dynamic ways -- ways that will ripple out and develop in the months to come, aided by other significant astrology in the process. For example, major planets are gearing up to change signs (among other things).

Eric will get into all of this and more in your upcoming 2017-18 Virgo Birthday Reading. Created to help you steer through the next 12 months and beyond, Eric presents the two astrology segments (at least 30 minutes each) and tarot reading in accessible, inviting language. He'll offer motivation and inspiration for all the challenges and opportunities you may encounter in your intimate relationships, family structure, career, creativity, spiritual and sexual healing and much more.

"You guide but also ask the listener to engage with their lives. Humans don't just get transformation for free and you are very precise in telling us where to look."
-- Shelley Stearns

How will you activate your potential and passion to grow and become? You can start by ordering your Virgo Birthday Reading -- recently published and currently at just $44 for some of the clearest, most immediately useful astrology you can find on the internet.

May Mercury smile upon you in all that you do.

Yours & truly,

Amanda Painter

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- This week, the Sun clears the last few degrees of your sign, and this is a time of completion. Remember your birthday resolutions. Remember what you want. Most of all, remember and be grateful for the discoveries you’ve made about yourself in this most unusual season of your life.

Your 2017-18 Virgo Birthday Reading by Eric contains insightful and accurate guidance that you can use to understand your personal gifts and ignite your potential. Order your birthday reading now and get instant access.

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- Jupiter is in your birth sign for another month before moving on to Scorpio. The main benefit of Jupiter in your sign is to help you expand your life, your prospects, and your idea of who you are: stretching your world. It’s also a reminder of your knowledge, and to use what you know.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- These days, nearly everyone is a little overexposed to the public. Make sure your involvement emphasizes business or social causes more than the usual chitchat. You have serious business to attend to, which could make a real difference in your career prospects. Keep it real.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- Planets are continuing to gather in the professional angle of your solar chart, saying keep your mind on work. But really the message seems to be more about the people you work with and the collaborations you have with them. Everyone is about to take a step, and you are leading the way.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- You may be getting the itch to travel, if you haven’t already been feeling it for a while. Depending on your budget and free time, you have many options, though even a day trip will help with the feeling of expanding your world. Many interesting places are less than an hour away.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Certain sensitive aspects of your life are a bit complicated at the moment, though most of that is in your mind. The message of your solar chart right now is to let go of your prejudices and expectations, and look at what actually exists. The truth is simpler than your ideas about it.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- For the next few days, the Sun in your relationship house (Virgo) meets up with Chiron in your sign. This is the last of many times this has happened across the Pisces-Virgo axis, and it places a strong emphasis on the healing value of your relationships. That’s what they’re for.
