Fire meets fire
Mars enters Leo (Monday Sep 28, 02:49 UTC), a fellow fire sign. Astrologers read this as a boost for curiosity and big-picture plans. It is a good week to look up the course, the trip or the book you keep mentioning, without committing yet.
Moon enters Gemini (Wednesday Sep 30, 17:26 UTC), your opposite sign. The Moon opposite your Sun sign is traditionally read as a time when other people's views carry extra weight. Who is offering a perspective you have not fully heard?
Mars trine Neptune (Friday Oct 2, 22:18 UTC), linking 2°49' Leo and Aries, both fire signs. This is read as inspiration with a soft edge, more suited to imagining than to hard deadlines. Let one idea stay a sketch for a few days before you test it.
