In the Middle Ages, the Great Chain of Being placed humans between angels and beasts — both animal and above animal — a position echoed by theologians, philosophers and natural scientists throughout Western thought. There is much wildness to claim this Hunter's Moon. As you track your desire, moving swiftly where the heart points, are you more creature of flesh or being of light?

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Freedom has its place, but today structure will carry you further. Make the plans. Follow the routine. Lean into order without worrying that it will kill spontaneity. The unexpected will arrive on its own. Your job is to give it a container.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're not always into being acknowledged. Right now, your private mood makes it seem unnecessary or even embarrassing to have too much attention on you, and you'll keep your contributions low-key or anonymous.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Energy will come from many sources, switching like a hybrid car between emotion, inspiration, nutrition and caffeine. Notice which fuel rockets the moment, which sustains over the long term, which is simply available — and let the mixture keep your wheels turning.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). To do a few things right is human. If they happen to be things people revere, it creates fans. But avoid putting anyone on a pedestal. People are complex and fallible. Even those who seem admirable struggle with lesser impulses.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). True generosity has effects beyond what you plan or expect. Your gift sets things in motion that can ripple outward in surprising ways. Even minor contributions can lead to bigger connections, opportunities or recognition.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're seeking Bigfoot, but everyone who shows up is just a human in a gorilla suit. Close enough isn't close enough, but with a little imagination and some tweaks, the artistry can still come together. Commit to the process.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have wisdom to share and guidance to lend. Sometimes you teach just by walking ahead. They are watching and following. They pick up on your knowledge but also your approach — your tenderness and patience.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If ignorance is bliss, that's only because awareness can be painful. But without the sensation, we wouldn't notice what needs adjustment. Stay aware. Your reactions don't have to dictate the outcome. You can grow to a place of choosing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Same as always, the best way to complain is by doing it the new and improved way — your way! You're so capable of this now as you enter a streak of brilliance. Solutions abound.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Love, like the wind, can't be seen or held. You can't measure it or point to where it "is," but you'll know its presence in the same way you have always known it. Impact. Love moves you. Love changes you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You go through steps automatically, like you can't help it, like it's part of your DNA. You name what's real. You spot the pattern. You adjust the mindset. You plan. You execute like a boss.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People who never doubt themselves are blind to their flaws, which can be more dangerous than the turmoil of self-questioning. You can take a bit of turmoil. It's a badge of honor that goes with leading the examined life.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 6). Welcome to your year of Sacred Sanctuary. Your home goes to the next level, and you also expand the meaning of "home" to your body and relationships, turning each of these living sanctuaries into gentle harbors of health, vitality and thriving. More highlights: a series of fascinating encounters becomes an epic story, a reorganizing of finance eases the means for investment and love declarations. Leo and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 5, 20, 14 and 50.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Ranked among the greatest stars of classic Hollywood, Carole Lombard was a protofeminist icon and an influential businesswoman who negotiated groundbreaking contracts that set new standards of profit-participation and creative control. Like a Libra, Lombard was also a passionate political activist. Her natal moon in empathetic Pisces is a highlight shared by many great actors.
