Forecast for the first half of October
The month begins with a shift in tone: Mercury enters Scorpio, which can bring more depth to reflections and favor straightforward conversations. This is a good time to address delicate topics and face conversations that require resolution. Be cautious with excessive suspicion or the tendency to fixate on obsessive thoughts.
On the 7th, the Full Moon in Aries highlights the theme of individuality and can amplify the courage to take action. It's a period of greater clarity and strength, but also of intensity that may lead to impulsive behaviors. Whenever you feel the Aries flame is burning too hot, take a deep breath and reflect before acting—especially if your chart is filled with fire signs.
The next day, Venus and Jupiter bring a lighter atmosphere. Relationships may flow more easily, and opportunities for mutual support and collaboration are more likely to arise. It’s a special moment to appreciate small gestures, daily care, and even thoughtful financial reviews.
Starting on the 13th, two movements stand out. Venus enters the sign of Libra, enhancing the desire for harmony, beauty, and balance in relationships. It’s a fertile period for honest conversations with partners, fair agreements, and even small changes that bring more pleasure and aesthetics to your routine. At the same time, Pluto’s retrograde comes to an end, marking a turning point in collective matters and generating a sense that things are starting to move forward.
Closing out the first half, on the 14th, Venus in Libra interacts with Uranus in Gemini and Pluto in Aquarius, favoring unexpected meetings and transformative connections. It’s a moment to do things differently, experiment with new ways of relating, and seek creative solutions for love and finances. Being open to the new can bring surprisingly positive results.
Forecast for the second half of October
The second half of the month begins with tension between the Sun in Libra and Jupiter in Cancer (October 17), calling for balance between desires and emotional responsibilities. It’s a time that tests our ability to expand without excess, harmonizing the “I” and the “We” in relationships and family commitments.
Venus encounters Saturn and Neptune in challenging aspects, demanding an extra dose of maturity. This is when fantasies or idealized expectations may clash with everyday reality. Rather than seeing this as disappointment, take it as an opportunity to cut back on excess and understand what truly makes sense to hold onto. More solid relationships gain strength precisely by passing through this filter of realism.
On the 20th, the conjunction between Mercury and Mars in Scorpio is about syncing speech and thought. The tip here is to use this force constructively, without falling into impulsiveness or heated arguments. Soon after, the New Moon in Libra (October 21) opens a new monthly cycle.
Neptune retrograde returns to Pisces (October 22), a sign it occupied for 14 years. This brief return, which ends in January 2026, symbolizes the closing of a long journey, offering the chance to revisit internal chapters and prepare the ground for the planet’s next cycle in Aries. Practices such as dream journaling, meditation, or reflecting on personal beliefs can help bring clarity in this closing phase, and it’s worth valuing the insights you receive during this time.
On the 23rd, the Sun enters Scorpio, marking the height of spring in the southern hemisphere and autumn in the northern hemisphere, inaugurating a season of grounding and depth. However, its tension with Pluto in Aquarius may highlight power struggles. Despite these tensions, this release paves the way for new foundations.
And it’s precisely at the end of the fortnight that this force manifests positively: the trines between Mars in Scorpio and both Jupiter and Saturn support disciplined courage and the energy to solidify long-term projects. It’s a fertile time to turn intentions into consistent actions.
Late October arrives with an inspiring sky: Mercury makes harmonious contacts with Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune before moving into Sagittarius. This creates an atmosphere where inspiration and strategy go hand in hand, encouraging productive conversations, solid planning, and future-oriented decision-making. It’s a great time to turn good ideas into concrete plans, without losing sight of the sensitivity and intuition that help guide each step.
Mercury enters Sagittarius on October 29, promoting more direct and visionary communication. There’s enthusiasm for learning, traveling, and exploring new ideas, but the opposition with Uranus warns of surprises and accidents. Mercury will go retrograde only on November 9.
