Happy October, Marylanders! Fall's here for real, and soon the leaves will be changing color....and a little Halloween magic will fill the air. So it makes perfect sense to ask Madame Maryland what she sees in your future! Here's what she has predicted for this month:
Aries
Does it feel like there's been way too much on your mind, Aries? October will be a great month to clear it -- get that metaphorical weight off! Take a yoga or meditation class, or go for a walk in the woods (admire that Maryland fall foliage while you're at it!). You've really earned it.
Taurus
You're not normally too easy to irritate, but things might be getting under your skin more easily than usual. Be aware of how you're reacting (or overreacting!), Taurus. Ask yourself if your annoyance is warranted, and if not, dial it back a little. You won't regret it!
Gemini
It's a month for a new love, Gemini, whether that's a person, a pet, or a new hobby! You'll be falling head over heels for something, and this month is going to be all about that thing -- just don't forget about your old friends or family members who have always been in your corner in the process.
Cancer
It's time to let out a sigh of relief -- this is a great month to realize some things aren't nearly as bad as you expected! Maybe you'll pass a test you were sure you failed or you'll ace a conversation you were sure you'd bungle. No matter what it is, take pride in that feeling! You'll make it out just fine.
Leo
Not everything worth doing is easy -- in fact, some of the most worthwhile stuff is kind of tricky! This is a great month to rely on your crew when the going gets tough. The best people in your life will be happy to be there for you, and they'll make sure you land on your feet.
Virgo
Don't have Halloween plans laid yet, Virgo? That's sure to change soon! Everyone is going to want a piece of you, and soon you'll have no idea how to fit all of the invites into your calendar. Don't worry -- if anyone can play Tetris with plans, it's you, and your friends will all be thankful.
Libra
It's your birthday month, Libra, and that means it's time to treat yourself! If there's something you've been meaning to ask someone for or about, now's a great time to do it. After all, who would even dream of denying the birthday Libra their heart's desire?
Scorpio
Now that autumn is here, you are ready to shift into maximum cozy mode! Don't skip anything -- candles, blankets, sweaters, none of it. The cozier you are, the better. And if your friends are jealous, well, they'll just have to deal (or you could, you know, share your fleece blanket).
Sagittarius
When's the last time you surprised someone? This month, make it happen, whether it's a large-scale surprise party or just a small treat for someone you care about. There's hardly any reaction better than someone who's just walked into the feeling of being loved and cared for, and you're the best person for the job!
Capricorn
What have you been doing to relieve stress lately? The answer better be 'something' -- you've gotta have an outlet! Everyone blows off steam differently, but don't forget to take a break sometimes and just allow yourself to do nothing. Yes, we mean nothing!
Aquarius
Is there a Debbie Downer in your life? Aquarius, you don't have to put up with those negative vibes! Feel free to leave them behind if they're not having fun -- you'll be a lot happier when you realize some people really don't have anything nice to say. Ditch them for a more fun bunch.
Pisces
Who's ready for Halloween? Pisces, of course! You're ready to wow everyone you meet with your creative costume and delicious fall snacks -- and you'll be proud to be the talk of the town (or at least your friend group). Be sure to spread the spirit with as many people as you can this October!
