Horoscope: October 6

Aries (March 21-April 19). Stop trying to find a proven model on which to base your project. You're too unique. The existing models won't do you justice. This is your chance to be inventive.

Taurus (April 20-May 20). You learn when you win, even more when you lose. Therefore, you're not even sure what you should hope for today. You can't go wrong just hoping for the best.

Gemini (May 21-June 21). That friend who facilitates rational, methodical, solution-focused talk is a gem. Call on this person as you try to work out the details of a knotty problem. You'll be better together.

Cancer (June 22-July 22). The confident person works to become stronger; the under-confident person accepts the current level. If you're not feeling confident, pretend. Pretending will make it so.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Everyone in your group is doing the same thing, but not everyone can do well as long as this is the case. Diversify. Suddenly the ones who used to be your competition will be come supporters.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Let go, and it all gets done. Maybe it doesn't come together exactly the way you wanted it to, but that might be a good thing. At some point, you have to start developing and trusting others. Why not today?

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The cosmic opportunities will include a chance at more profitable dealings. You have reasons, other than financial, for doing business. Lead with these reasons and your high integrity, and you can't lose.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When the others in your group can't come to a collective decision, consider whether it's time to branch out alone. Decisive appropriate action completed in a timely manner is what it will take to move forward.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Trying to do everything at once will only squander your energy. You have plenty now. If you place it well, it will build momentum. Place it poorly, and you won't believe how quickly it can drain.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It would be nice to get some formal training for that interest of yours, if only for the feeling of accomplishment for checking off all the items you learned along the way and receiving a certificate.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your friends only understand what you've told them about yourself through your words and actions. You might consider presenting yourself differently in order to show a new side.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Good relationships can't be forced or manufactured. They are the product of exchanges of energy that make sense for each person. Reciprocity is different for everyone.

Today's Birthday (Oct. 6). Ambition is highlighted. By your next birthday, you'll be able to say, "I accomplished what few could achieve." Your experience combined with another person's resources will be a winning combination over the next six weeks. The end of 2015 focuses on healing a relationship. An investment invigorates your spring. Virgo and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 17, 48, 19 and 33.
