This October is filled with intense astrological events, including a new moon solar eclipse in Libra on Oct. 2, a retrograde Jupiter, and Pluto going direct in Capricorn midmonth. Uphold balance and beauty with the influence of Libra symbolized by scales and partnership themes, expressing itself through relationships throughout the month.
The solar eclipse in Libra on Oct. 2 could bring back past people and themes with a focus on releasing, purging, and reflecting energy. Partnerships from last October or March may be up for reevaluation. Jupiter retrograde in Gemini starts on Oct. 9 while Pluto shifts direct into Capricorn, leading to conflicting energies between inner work and proving one’s purpose.
Mercury in Libra for the first part of the month brings diplomacy and reason to conversations. However, Mars in Cancer, the planet of conflict and action, challenges us to navigate unprocessed feelings and anxiety effectively. By midmonth, Mercury and Venus in Scorpio can increase desires to explore the taboo, while Venus moving into Sagittarius on Oct. 17 offers hope and optimism.
For Aries, relationships take the spotlight with a focus on trust and compassion. Taurus is advised to seek a healthy work-life balance, while Geminis can indulge in romance, creativity, and play. Cancer is encouraged to focus on home, ancestral trauma, and family connections, while Leos should work on communication and listening.
Virgos should pay attention to their wealth and self-worth, and Libra individuals are urged to branch out and grow during their birthday season. Scorpios need to focus on deep healing, and Sagittarius should socialize with purpose. Capricorns need to focus on their career goals, while Aquarians should focus on spiritual pursuits. Pisces should focus on transformation in emotional and financial aspects during this astrological season.
