Happy October everyone! We all know what that means… Cuffing season has commenced, as my friends like to say (we aren’t getting cuffed though). Regardless, the energy of this month tends to be both sexual and mysterious- it is the month for Libras and Scorpios to be celebrated. However, what does astrology tell us about what this month will bring to the table?
So, of course, this month is starting off with Mercury being in retrograde… until the 18th of this month. The retrograde is in Libra, which leads to some unruly consequences. Libras are the balancing glue that neutralize situations, but this retrograde will be a time for mixed signals, communication problems, and defensiveness. Not be all negative, but that’s not all that is in store for this month. Venus also enters Sagittarius this month, which is indicative of a particularly fiery energy that may lead to some risk taking when it comes to relationships. But… this month does have interesting and positive events in store for us.
There is potential for improved financial situations and investment situations when the Libra sun and mercury retrograde align on October 9th. Saturn’s extremely long retrograde will also end on October 10th, which will allow for clarity when it comes to relationships and communication problems. Enough of all this talk about planets and retrogrades… let’s get into what this month will bring for each of the 12 zodiac signs.
This month will be a time for Aries to slow down, listen, and evaluate old relationships.
Taurus must learn how to incorporate more balance in their lives, especially in the romance realm. Exes and creativity are two of the main entities dominating the lives of Geminis for this month; exes may unexpectedly encounter you this month, but those in creative fields can expect some incredible ideas and inspiration throughout this month. Family will be important for Cancers, but there is an intense energy in store; this will be a good time for cancers to pamper themselves and relax. Leos are going to be lucky this month, (eye roll, this always seems to be the case for the damn Leos) and increased happiness and a masculine energy will be highlighted in this case. For Virgos, finances should be set and reviewed throughout this month; the primary goal is for these earth signs to focus on themselves during this time.
Libras should learn to assert and defend themselves this month, as well as become more honest those around them. Reinvention and a strong desire for privacy will be necessary for Scorpios, as they will be connecting with their intuition this month. Sagittarius will be spontaneous this month, and the focus is for this air sign to take on new projects or different directions. Capricorns are going to be busy with increased intensity and possible turning points. Pieces will finally begin to click for Aquarius, and it is important for them to form well-thought plans to prepare for whatever it is coming their way. Last, but not least, this month will be a breath of fresh air for Pisces, especially after the chaos that arose for this water sign last month. Secrets may be revealed, there will be more financial clarity, and a break or trip will be in the books at the end of this month!
With that, happy October once again! Let’s make this an amazing month regardless of the planets and their intensities.
