Technically speaking, September 23rd should be the most balanced day of 2019—the Autumnal Equinox makes it so that day and night will each be precisely 12 hours long. You spent Summer getting in touch with yourself and those who surround you, and Fall is where you’ll start to see the fruits of your labor.
Read on to find out what Autumn holds for you, and discover the perfect listen within the plentiful audiobook bounty. Happy harvesting.
ARIES
You’re about to calm way down, Aries, which is pretty unheard of for you. This will make it easier to focus on one-on-one connections: coworkers, new kindred spirits, and crushes could all make the list. Ready, set, bond.

GEMINI
Like the ever-wise Madonna once said, “Express yourself!”
You’re feeling creative and individualistic lately—it’s either time to shake off that twin for awhile, or see if your two halves can find a shared goal. You might just surprise yourself.
You should listen to: The Cheffe by Marie NDiaye
CANCER
Excuse the crab pun, but you’re going hermit, huh? It’s out of character for a social creature like yourself, but it’s no problem. Focus on making your shell feel like a home you’re proud of so that you can make a sparkling re-entry during Scorpio season. Halloween party, anyone?

Just be careful, chatty cat, and make sure your arguments are all in good fun.

VIRGO

SCORPIO
Alright little buggies, it’s time to take a seat and grab some punch. You’ve been dancing for so long, and isn’t sherbet delicious!? Take a look at your life—the people you spend time with, your things, your dreams, your daily routines—and get rid of whatever isn’t serving you.
You should listen to: The Anatomy of Dreams by Chloe Benjamin
SAGITTARIUS
This season you’re no regular pony: you’re a magical, mystical unicorn. You should be holding extra tight to your dreams right now, because you’re about to meet and greet a lot of people who could turn your fantasies into reality. You’re in the mood to schmooze—go forth.

AQUARIUS
Look into my crystal ball, Aquarian friends. I see you on a plane, heading towards elsewhere. You’re feeling antsy to learn something new in a big way—this may be through a trip somewhere far from home. There’s only one thing to think about now: what’s your destination?
You should listen to: Surfacing by Kathleen Jamie

Your heart eyes are visible from a mile away, Nemo. You’ve got a good old-fashioned crush: is it on someone who’s been wasting your time? Perhaps someone you want to waste your time with? Reflect, then proceed. You’ll know exactly what to do.
