Encarta defines abundance as a fullness of spirit that overflows. That is you, Sag, in loads. Your free spirit craves travel and you adore foreign foods as long as you can find the locals' hangout. You love to be entertained while eating... good jokes or dinner theater, either works fine. Keep the overindulgence in check, except for your famous, first-class backyard barbecues!

Your plethora of personal relationships benefit well from the full moon lunar eclipse on the 10th.

Your temperament for living life large can cause unexpected expenses under the influence of the new moon in Capricorn on December 24th and the spirit of holiday surprises.

Quick Fire: Recipe dissection is a favorite pastime for our analytical Virgoans. You are likely to be a vegetarian or have acute tendencies toward certain food philosophies. Your foodie birthright is a nourishing diet of nuts, grains, beans, seeds and plain yogurt...

September Horoscope:
It’s time to believe what others have known for a long time… you are a star and can manifest your daydreams with little effort bringing you the recognition you truly want. Embrace this side of yourself and practice creativity. The kitchen is a good place to start breaking out. The full moon on the 12th will support these efforts by sharpening your skills of persuasion and keeping you in tune with partners of all types. Plan a special party for your birthday and show them your flair. Remember… life encompasses work AND play!
Your pairing: Summer pineapple glazed Cornish game hen with pine nut wild rice stuffing and crispy Pinot Grigio.

Out To Eat…
Choose a clean and efficient vegetarian cafe. A like-minded place where their pickiness won’t draw attention… a safe bet and comfort zone for them to open up.
At Home…
Don’t expect frilly gourmet cooking… they will serve simple dishes with whole grains and vegetables. Enjoy their enthusiasm to share.
How to Impress…
Understand them, hug them, and give them simple, meaningful gifts.
Gift Foods…
A lovely woven burlap reusable grocery bag filled with potting herb seeds, an organic chili mix, and the latest trend in tabouli!
