What’s in the Stars in September for Entrepreneurs?

By Jennifer Angel Sep 03, 2013

Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own.

For ages, entrepreneurs have read tea leaves, studied palms, examined numbers and, of course, turned to the stars to glean insights on how to handle tough business choices. Should they bring on a business partner or run it solo? Do they need to raise additional capital or bootstrap? Sell, merge, go public?

While checking out your horoscope for business advice might sound like hocus pocus, the act of simply thinking about your business and your options is invaluable — even if it means reading between the lines and trying to translate what planetary alignment means for you.

For this month, we celebrate the Virgo (born between August 22 and September 23). The sixth sign of the zodiac tends to pay great attention to detail, is efficient, can be a bit critical of others, yet, looks to lend a helping hand when needed.

Check out what the stars have in mind for Virgos this month, along with other astrological signs:
