Overall Energy in October

This month is a welcome reprieve from the September Eclipses, as the dust is settling we will begin to understand what was stirred up last month.

We begin the month with four out of five outer planets in retrograde. This is all about introspection and redefining the path toward your goals. Sometimes that means a change in the Self or a Relationship dynamic. As the cooler weather brings a sense of hunkering down, so does this team of retrograde giants.

The first week of October has the Sun (identity) and Mercury (communication) in Libra. Helping us to consider those vital conversations, and use our best tact and consideration. Venus in Virgo will add practicality to our actions and Mars in Scorpio may try to be impulsive or pushy, so mind your manners and most definitely don’t take anything personal.

The final days of the month are powerfully charged in a good way, so hold the vision for the good to unfold!

October 6th Full Moon in Aries 9pm, as Mercury slides into Scorpio bringing deep feelings to the surface to be mulled over and spoken. Again, with Mars here be aware that you will feel instinctually inspired, and may surprise yourself and others with your spontaneous communication. The Bravery of Mars will help you take action on something you have been holding back on for a while.

October 10th-12th Venus opposite Saturn. This may bring challenges and opportunities related to love, values, and emotional connections, prompting a balance between practical needs (Venus in Virgo) and emotional security (Saturn in Pisces). This aspect can highlight issues of worth, fears that hinder connection, and a need for commitment in relationships, ultimately encouraging deeper maturity and sustainable bonds. But be aware, Venus will next be opposite Neptune on the 13th, flavoring this with a potential for idealized relationships, and potentially deceptive love or creative longing. Hold the Dream but make sure it is viable.

October 14th - Pluto Goes Direct at 1’ Aquarius as Venus enters Libra and Venus is in a harmonious aspect! A renewed sense of freedom will come in the following weeks. A beautiful time for Transformation of yourself and the way you used to be in relationships.

October 17th There may be conversations with a woman or a mother figure that triggers you. There is a beautiful opportunity to let go of Egoic tendencies and critical childhood memories.

October 21st - New Moon in Libra 6:30 am. New moons are all about the new chapter you are stepping into. Libra is justice, relationship, balance, beauty and what we love. What are you calling in for yourself?

Neptune retrogrades back to Pisces, and revisits the dream we are bringing to life!

October 23rd - Sun enters Scorpio! Happy Birthday to all Scorpios!

October 25th - 27th The first wave of Harmonious energies are supporting a deeper bond with family, people or places that are nurturing to you. Perhaps even a secured loan to remodel your home is in order.

October 27th - 29th The second wave, A Grand water sign Trine (blessings) is adding even more power to your feelings and desires to connect on a deeper level with others.

October 31st is a Friday! Happy Halloween! OMG this halloween is going to be a great one for memories. Deep friendships, new connections, it’s literally dreamy, LOL!
