You’re boldly chasing after your dreams, Sagittarius! Libra season fills your mind with inspiration and your heart with courage. The next few weeks give you the momentum to make progress on your goals and charm the right people to help you along the way. You’re also busy connecting with friends, doing hobbies that light you up, and standing up for what you believe in. You’re craving community and want to spend time with people who make you feel you belong.
The month starts off with a New Moon solar eclipse in Libra on October 2, which will deliver a reality check about one of your dreams. Maybe you’re letting go of one of your long-term goals as a more aligned calling emerges. New connections and friendships enter your life and ones that have run their course make their exit. You’re fueled by your imagination when Venus in Scorpio links up with Mars in Cancer on October 8. This is productive energy for working on a creative project or using art to heal or process your emotions. Sex can feel more intimate today and your romantic relationships might explore vulnerability and trust.
You’re having a change of heart about an important person in your life when Jupiter goes retrograde in Gemini on October 9. Maybe you’re ready to leave a relationship or give it your all one more time. Contracts can end and maybe you’re reconsidering who and what you invest your energy into. Your beliefs and goals for the future are shifting in some way. Mercury, the planet of communication, enters Scorpio on October 13 and you’ve suddenly become a mind reader! There is no doubt that your intuition is accurate and your dream world might be full of symbolism. Your schedule is also picking up, which can make you crave more rest. Setting boundaries and practicing saying “no” are key lessons over the next few weeks.
If there are any strings attached in any of your relationships, you’re finding out when the Sun in Libra rams into Mars in Cancer on October 14. You can deal with jealousy in your social circle or learn a secret that pisses you off. Some of your friendships might frustrate you, or alternately, maybe a friend is going through a difficult time and needs your support. You could also make a financial investment in a long-term goal. On the same day, Venus in Scorpio locks eyes with Uranus in Taurus, shaking up your subconscious. Hidden truths about some of your relationships are revealed! If you’ve been overlooking red flags, they become more apart today.
A Full Moon in Aries takes over the skies on October 17, marking a moment of celebration. You could experience a turning point with a lover or with a creative project you’ve been working on. This is a powerful time for your self-expression. Sharing your talents far and wide and taking up space will grant you a little extra luck. Later in the day, Venus, the planet of relationships, enters your sign. The next few weeks are all about you: It’s time to put yourself, your wants, and your needs first! You can learn some exciting news about your personal goals or become more focused on your physical self. This is a great time to shake up your style, try out new beauty treatments, or to get a haircut. New, exciting relationships can also enter your life, or you could rebalance relationships that have focused too much on someone else and left your needs unmet.
You’re mingling with powerful people who can influence you, your ideas, and dreams when the Sun in Libra slams into Pluto in Capricorn on October 22. You could land a transformative collaborative opportunity today. On the other hand, you could be dealing with jealousy or drama in your social circle. Others may project onto you, or perhaps you’re the one who’s suffering from a bit of envy or insecurity.
The Sun enters Scorpio later in the day and you’re ready to run home and jump in bed. You might feel more worn down this Scorpio season. You’re juggling a lot in your personal and professional life, and it can leave you feeling undervalued and under-appreciated. You’re more in tune with what’s been left unsaid and the parts of your subconscious you typically ignore, making this a powerful time to change your habits and beliefs. You might feel temporarily let down by someone you love on October 28 when Venus in Sagittarius rams into Saturn in Pisces. This energy can bring out feelings of rejection, isolation, or disappointment. You may face uncomfortable truths about an important person in your life, need to set some boundaries, or have a serious discussion.
Your daily routine experiences a shakeup when Mercury in Scorpio sits across the sky from Uranus in Taurus on October 30. You may have an epiphany of sorts or wildly vivid dream coded with messages. The month ends with Mercury in Scorpio mingling with Neptune in Pisces on October 31, inspiring you to surrender and accept what you cannot control. This is powerful energy for letting go, healing conversations, and communing with your ancestors and asking for guidance and wisdom. All the more appropriate that today is Halloween.
