October forecast for Goat

Why is it that what you want to alter stays doggedly the same? Yet, what you want to remain static keeps moving dynamically? It can feel quite exasperating when you want to stand still, someone comes along and says you cannot and you must move along with the crowd instead. And when you want to get going you get in the car or on the bus you have to queue in the traffic. Maybe you should have stayed home instead of venturing outdoors.

It seems that you are wrestling with the universe and you are struggling to break free from a stranglehold. You twist this way and turn that way. Then you try turning this way and twisting that way. Put some strength in, push very hard and nothing shifts. Wriggle and pull away and there is some tiny movement. Events will eventually unfold in your favour this month, just not quite in the way you first expected. It is like you have been searching the hillside for a nice patch to graze on. After wandering around the mountain and only finding a few scraps here and there you come across some undiscovered lush grass.

Love

Don’t expect your significant other to change their mind just because you want them to. Don’t be surprised when they make a u-turn over something else that you thought was an absolute certainty. Take nothing for granted in your love life this month. Unattached Goats don’t be afraid to talk to someone who doesn’t look like your usual type.

Career

Missed phone calls and erroneously spammed emails can begin to make you feel that your co-workers are collaborating against you. Rather than put forward allegations, step back and see if you need to retrieve messages from your voicemail and your inbox. There is no conspiracy in the workplace.

Money

Be prepared to shift your position a few times during any negotiations. That does not mean you have to back down and walk away with a lesser deal. It could mean that the dialogue follows a long and winding path. Luck will find you and the deal you close will be a good one all round.
