Mercury, the planet of the mind and communication, enters Scorpio on October 13, bringing lucky news your way. You could make new friends or find a community where you feel a strong sense of belonging. You want to spend time with people who make you feel seen and appreciated. This is a busy time to come up with ideas about some of your aspirations and goals. If you have an elevator pitch, well, find the right person and get pitching! Others are curious about your ideas and want to help you bring them to life. The Sun in Libra clashes with Mars in Cancer on October 14, which brings disruptions to your one-on-one relationships. If you’re collaborating on a project, you can wind up disagreeing or in a conflict. You may need to set boundaries in your personal and professional lives too. Try to look at this as an opportunity to stand up for yourself and get back on the same page as the important people in your life.

On the same day, Venus in Scorpio locks eyes with Uranus in Taurus and you could have some unexpected hot sex! Or maybe you’re getting wild in a strange place—like while on a secluded hike or in a parked car in a discreet location. This can bring old friends or acquaintances back into your life or leave you with a sudden burst of creative inspiration. You may have awkward and unexpected interactions with friends today, too.

The Full Moon in Aries on October 17 puts a spotlight on your private life. You’re focused on your chosen family—maybe you learn something important about a loved one or experience a shift in your relationship.

On the same day, Venus, the planet of connection, enters Sagittarius, and you’re craving more solitude. You’re starting to notice that when you spend time alone and quiet your mind, interesting ideas emerge. This helps you feel back on track with your daily routine. You may also want to spend time committing to a spiritual practice from your ancestry, engaging in evening meditations, or working with a dream journal. Your intuition is loud over the next few weeks.

You’re facing your fears of showing up fully and authentically when the Sun in Libra slams into Pluto in Capricorn on October 22. If you’ve felt a need to hide part of yourself today, you’re pushing past that resistance. You may choose to share something personal and private with an important person in your life, which can feel cathartic, transformative, and triggering at the same time. You’re diving deep and willing to confront what’s been left unsaid.

Later in the day, the Sun enters Scorpio, and you’re making progress on some of your dreams. This Scorpio season, other people are interested in collaborating with you. They can’t get enough of your ideas! Over the next few weeks, spending time with friends will also feel recharging, and you may find new community by engaging in hobbies that light you up.

You could learn news that feels disappointing when Venus in Sagittarius rams into Saturn in Pisces on October 28. This isn’t the best day to profess your feelings or rely on others for support. People are feeling grumpy and consumed with their own dramas. You may simply feel worn down and need to catch up on rest. If you set some boundaries, make sure you stick with them!

Mercury in Scorpio stares down Uranus in Taurus on October 30, and you could hear from someone surprising or learn news that feels lucky, inspiring, or perplexing! The month wraps up with Mercury in Scorpio connecting gently with Neptune in Pisces on October 31.
