4 Zodiacs Who Will Receive The News They’ve Been Waiting For On October 4

TAURUS

For you, Taurus, it’s a yes or no answer you’ve been waiting for. Did I pass or did I fail? Was I picked, or was someone else? Am I going, or am I staying? And while you’ve been counting down the days until this answer arrives, part of you has hesitated. Part of you has dreaded the fact that your hopes could be rewarded or crushed, that there truly is no in between. It’s hard for anyone to be in that position, but you have to remember that this is the answer for right now. It’s not the end all be all forever. Good news doesn’t mean you have to stop working, and neither does bad news. Your highs are temporary, and so are your lows. The moments in life that are most fulfilling are the ones in which you exert continuous effort, not the few days you are evaluated on it. And no one else can measure your own success the way you can. No one else has seen all the sweat and tears.

LIBRA

The news you’ve been waiting for, Libra, is that of an obstacle being removed. A way forward. A change of circumstances. You’ve been holding out for the impossible, even when it makes you feel crazy. It’s just that something inside of you, some sliver of hope could not be put out, and today the smallest bit of tinder reignites an old flame you’ve given safe harbor, whether you realized it or not. So the question becomes: What are you going to do with this news? As surprising as it may seem, it’s often things going right that scare us the most. Are you going to freeze up, or are you going to dive right into the opportunity you’ve been waiting for? Sometimes we have to make a decision not to waste any more time or energy on trepidation when we want something this badly. Today you will receive that permission to go for it, so go!

CANCER

You’ve been waiting for bad news, Cancer. The mutiny that tells you it’s time to jump ship. The storm that sends you packing. The bar closing refrain “you don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here.” Sometimes we know an end is coming. We suspect it in our careers, our relationships, even our wardrobes. Times change, things go out of style, and we have to adapt to ever evolving circumstances around us. It’s okay to see something through to the end. It’s okay to know that something isn’t going to work out but to decide to wait until it’s truly failed to walk away. Professional athletes don’t get to excuse themselves from a game when they’ve lost hope. That clock still has to run down, but once it does, they get to exhale, go back to the locker room, and regroup. Make a new plan, go back to the drawing board and figure out what comes next. Today is the day you get that permission to move forward too.

AQUARIUS

You’ve been hoping, secretly, that someone likes you as much as you like them. It’s that early period where you’re just getting to know them, but something tells you there’s a lot more to like under the hood. You are curious and eager and interested, and all of those feelings that make us excited and energized about life again. When you hear through the grapevine of mutual acquaintances that this person has had good things to say about you too, it’s more than you had hoped for. It’s the tiny push you needed to make more of an effort, to stop hiding your interest. Literally nothing has been stopping you from sending that text or that invitation to coffee but your own self. Let go of the shyness, the embarrassment, and own up to your adult feelings. This isn’t the seventh grade anymore. You can tell someone “I like you, and I’d like to spend more time with you” without dying of shame.
