Chinese Zodiac Sign Weekly Horoscope For October 9 - 15, 2023
Unleash your inner superpower.
Balance, patience and the desire to shine bright like a diamond are the key themes of the week of October 9 - 15, 2023. Whether you prefer a sedate pace or are a speed runner, you are being called to do what comes naturally to you this week and then some.
This week's I Ching hexagram is Heaven over Heaven (#1). As the Hexagram of Creation, it's calling on you to dig deep and touch your soul to unleash your true potential. We often pour our love, energy and efforts into other people because of bad messages from selfish people. Once you turn it into yourself, the pearls you discover will astound you. You may even realize why they say pleasure lies in the journey, not the destination.
You may also benefit from doing self-esteem-boosting exercises this week. Of course, doing something brave, like giving a speech, trying something new or having a heartfelt conversation, also falls in this category. So dig deep and don't just focus on the superficial level of self-esteem. Let's focus on the weekly horoscopes for each Chinese zodiac sign for October 9 - 15.
