Welcome to October, everyone! This is a month of intensity and positivity blended together to create something potent without being overwhelming.
On the 6th, messenger Mercury will leave behind fair-minded Libra and move into intense Scorpio until the end of the month. Mercury in Scorpio is a very potent combination, when we are encouraged to put on our detective’s cap and get to the bottom of any issues that may have been plaguing us lately. This can be very productive energy, but if we take it too far then we can create drama where there isn’t any, so beware reading between the lines to such an extent that it proves problematic, rather than providing a solution.
Also on the 6th, the skies will glow with a potent Aries Full Moon, which will represent the first lunation since the end of Eclipse season. This lunation serves as a reminder to listen to our own desires and needs and to pursue them without letting others stand in our way, or tell us how we ought to do something. Of course, we can’t always completely ignore the people around us, but this Moon is a good reminder not to ignore our own inner voices and intuition.
On the 13th, alchemical Pluto will turn direct in Aquarius after being retrograde since May.
Pluto is the planet of transformation and evolution, and in the sign of the Water Bearer it is dealing with various issues, not the least of which includes technology, social and humanitarian causes, and how we are integrating the two. It is no secret that society is currently dealing with the advancement of technology and finding new ways to integrate it into our lives, but with Pluto turning direct, there will be more forward motion on the way, reconciling and advancing the lessons and stagnations that retrograde season brought to us.
On a personal level, the desire from transformation and change will become even stronger. Progress cannot be avoided.
The energy takes a turn for the romantic and gentle as loving Venus returns to her home sign of Libra on the 13th, where she will remain for the next four weeks. Venus operates at her best in Libra, and wants to ensure that we are giving and receiving affection in equal measure, and that no one feels left out in the cold. Venus in Libra also loves to express her aesthetic side, so if you are considering changing up your look or making a few stylish purchases, this is the perfect time.
The 21st arrives with a lovely New Moon in Libra, sending out a wave of harmonious vibrations throughout the world. This is a wonderful cue from the Universe to treat people how we want to be treated, and to create new partnerships that can benefit us well into the future, while also working to improve the connections already in our life.
Romance can flourish under this lunation, but keep in mind that professional alliances are also highlighted, as everyone will be sure to get a deal that benefits both parties, rather than creating even more inequality in an already unbalanced world.
On the 22nd, mystical Neptune will retrograde back into Pisces where it will be until next January, and then it will not return within our lifetime!
The era of Neptune in Pisces saw the rise of the influencer and our attachment to the idols of the screen, but that allure and attraction is slowly ebbing away as Neptune readies itself to decamp from this sector for a very long time. This last visit may bring up a few more issues regarding how we as a culture choose to lift people up, as well as how we choose to tear them down, but by the time Neptune moves on again, it is highly likely that many people will be choosing to unplug more and more from the realms of social media, perhaps even returning to “dumb” phones in order to simplify our lives and cut out excess and unnecessary noise.
The Sun is starting its annual tour of Scorpio on the 22nd as well, encouraging more inward reflection. Scorpio season is a time to lift the veil and explore unseen sides of life, while focusing on increasing the value and depth of your connections and ambitions. The sign of Scorpio tends to prefer to work out of sight, only unveiling their work when they are certain it is up to snuff, so don’t be shocked if you feel like keeping your cards close to your chest for the time being.
That being said, the urge to speak our truth will be undeniable when Mercury zooms into freedom-seeking Sagittarius on the 29th. Mercury has no problem telling it like it is while it is in this adventurous sign, and we can experience more fireworks and gotcha moments during this cycle.
Keep in mind that Mercury will turn retrograde here in November, so there will be a tendency to stick our foot in our mouths if we are not careful, but that won’t occur until next month, and we can end October on an appropriate mix of fun and seasonal spookiness.
Important Transits in October 2025
- October 1st — Mercury square Jupiter
Anything and everything seems possible as Mercury bumps up against Jupiter, giving us all a taste of enthusiasm and excitement. That’s all well and good, but this can push us to overestimate ourselves and our abilities, so it is important to maintain a sense of reality while contemplating all the available possibilities.
- October 6th — Mercury enters Scorpio
Put on your detective’s cap and start following the trail of clues! Mercury is entering Scorpio to stay for three weeks, which can make everything seem like a mystery just waiting to be unraveled. It is easier to read between the lines during this time, but beware creating excess drama in situations that do not require it.
- October 7th — Mercury square Pluto
Be careful with your words! Mercury is squaring off against nefarious Pluto, stirring up our darkest thoughts. If you’ve been trying to keep your mouth shut, you might finally let loose a barrage of hard truths, but before ruining any relationships, remember to count to ten.
This is a quick transit, so tempers that flare today could be calm and breezy tomorrow.
- October 8th — Venus sextile Jupiter
Romance takes on an enthusiastic and expansive tone as Venus makes a lovely connection to Jupiter. It is easy to lead with the heart and say what we really feel without fear or worry.
Likewise, we may be more inspired to spend or to treat ourselves to a few lovely things, which is fine so long as we don’t let Jupiter tempt us to go overboard.
- October 11th — Venus oppose Saturn
Hit the brakes on romance – if you don’t, the stars certainly will! With Venus, the planet of pleasure, forming a tense opposition with cold Saturn, there will be a cosmic shortage of all the joys Venus likes to typically bless us with.
If you really want to make something happen now, it’s not impossible, but it will require considerable effort for an uncertain reward.
- October 13th — Pluto Direct
You can begin to move forward again with your deepest desires as transformative Pluto turns direct after being retrograde since May. This has been a wild year, and it has impacted all of us profoundly. This change in the heavens offers you the chance to finally assimilate the change around and inside you on a more wholesome and compatible level.
- October 13th — Venus enters Libra
Romance is a two-way street, and we are being reminded of that fact as loving Venus returns to her home sign of fair-minded Libra. This four-week cycle encourages balance in all kinds of partnerships, and it also encourages us to bring a bit more beauty into our lives, because there is no reason to live a spartan existence if it isn’t required. Indulge the senses.
- October 13th — Venus oppose Neptune
It is tempting to lose sight of reality as Venus opposes Neptune. Our desires can blur and boundaries can evaporate, tempting us to explore new territory, which can be exciting but it can also be a little dangerous if we aren’t careful. It is easy to ignore the red flags waving before us during such an opposition.
- October 14th — Venus trine Uranus
It is perfectly understandable if we want to shake things up as Venus trines rebel Uranus. We may find ourselves attracted to unusual people, or perhaps the urge to throw our money around is more tempting. Sometimes, coloring outside the lines can create a true work of art.
- October 14th — Venus trine Pluto
Love takes a passionate turn as Venus forms a harmonious angle with intense Pluto, turning the heat up to a bubbling boil. If a relationship has hit the skids, this transit could help it get back on track, while singles have a great chance of meeting someone who totally stokes their fires.
- October 17th — Sun square Jupiter
It’s easy to get overexcited as the Sun forms a strong square to enthusiastic Jupiter, who never likes to do anything small or by halves, and would much rather go all-out. There is nothing wrong with wanting to give something your all, but if you push too hard, then your efforts may blow up in your face. Know when too much is too much.
- October 20th — Mercury conjunct Mars
Our words can be weapons as Mercury conjoins warrior Mars, giving us an extra edge, especially as the two sync up in secretive Scorpio. We may feel like a cobra, ready to strike, but avoid snapping at those who don’t deserve it, because people will remember unnecessary sharpness.
- October 22nd — Neptune enters Pisces
It’s time to get wrapped up in magic once again. Neptune is retrograding back into Pisces for one last visit that will last into early next year. This is an opportunity to shine light into the shadows and banish illusions once and for all, as we attempt to see the world more clearly.
- October 22nd — Sun enters Scorpio
After the fun-loving vibrations of Libra season, there is a heady change as the Sun moves into intense Scorpio for the next thirty days. This cycle is all about transformation, so look around your life and consider what things no longer need to remain; by the time the Sun moves on again in a month, you could emerge from your chrysalis a beautiful butterfly.
- October 24th — Sun square Pluto
Power plays are the order of the day as the Sun makes a rough square to alchemical Pluto. It’s one thing to get serious about our goals, it’s another thing to push people out of the way in our pursuit of them. Don’t lose yourself for the sake of a reward that isn’t guaranteed.
- October 24th — Mercury trine Jupiter
Our ideas can reach new heights as mental Mercury locks into a stabilizing trine with excitable Jupiter, helping us think up fresh ideas and brilliant solutions. Conversations can be especially collaborative, so don’t be shy about working together towards a common goal.
- October 28th — Mars trine Jupiter
Our actions can have powerful results as Mars and Jupiter form a rare trine. Our desire to achieve will be higher than ever, and though it might be tempting to get carried away in the process, we should be able to manage everything with aplomb so long as we keep one foot in reality.
- October 29th — Mercury trine Neptune
It’s time to let the Muse guide you as Mercury trines Neptune, inspiring you to let your artistic side out. Thoughts and words can be incredibly creative right now, but they can also be extremely healing, so if there is anyone you know who has been going through a difficult time, then reach out; your words could do wonders.
- October 29th — Mercury oppose Uranus
Think outside of the box today because the Universe will be sending you some rather unusual signals. There’s a powerful alignment between Mercury and rebellious Uranus, and together, they want you to try something a little less tried and true and a little more out of left field. If you tend to stick to what you know, then break out of your shell under this transit.
- October 29th — Mercury enters Sagittarius
It’s time to speak your truth as Mercury enters boundless Sagittarius, encouraging us all to shoot straight from the heart. That’s certainly admirable, but make sure you don’t tell any unnecessary truths that end up hurting someone’s feelings. Expand your mind with new research.
- October 29th — Mars trine Saturn
You can move mountains, but don’t think you have to move them instantly. Mars is forming a supportive trine with Saturn, encouraging us to make every step forward count, and not to fritter away our time with anything useless or unrewarding. The work we do now can have a major impact on our futures for a long time to come.
- October 30th — Mercury sextile Pluto
Our minds are sharper than usual as Mercury sextiles Pluto, turning our tongues into blades that can easily cut. However, this angle is positive, so we will be tempted to create solutions, rather than drama. We can do this more easily by getting to the heart of the matter, so there is no need for waffling at a time like this.
The Moon in October 2025
- October 6th — Aries Full Moon
Our cosmic ambitions and energies are reaching a potent crescendo as the Aries Full Moon lights up the skies. Aries energy is about pursuing our strongest desires and ambitions, so although we might be tempted to keep the playing field equal during Libra Season, the Aries Full Moon reminds us to chase after our own goals without flagging. This is no time to be a doormat.
- October 13th — Quarter Moon in Cancer
While the Sun is in Libra, we’re wearing our hearts on our sleeves, but this energy is also very cerebral, rather than emotional. The Quarter Moon in Cancer grounds us in our feelings, reminding us that the head and the heart aren’t always separate and can work stronger together than apart.
- October 21st — Libra New Moon
The Libra New Moon arrives as a powerful opportunity to bring balance and harmony back into our lives. It is also a terrific time to initiate new partnerships for all sorts of purposes, so whether you’re teaming up for romance or business, this lunation will help you find the right person to form half of your team. Compromise is favored.
- October 29th — Quarter Moon in Aquarius
The Quarter Moon in Aquarius arrives during the extremities of Scorpio season to remind us to think outside of the box, and to remain flexible in our approach. It is also a good time to group up in pursuit of any goals, so remember that people are stronger when they work together, rather than attempting to achieve on their own.

Career & Money:
October is a month to enjoy yourself, so don’t be shocked if you aren’t all that interested in rolling up your sleeves and getting to work, which will be much more of a major theme in November. Meanwhile, money-loving Venus will enter Libra and your domestic 4th House on the 13th for four weeks, during which time you may want to spend more on interior decor or inject more money into your abode to increase its value, perhaps with a new coat of paint of something more intensive, like full scale renovations. Likewise, you could probably find some things around the house you’d be happy to sell, and they will fetch you a pretty penny for your efforts.

Things heat up after alluring Venus enters your buzzy 3rd House on the 13th for four weeks, during which time singles will have better luck getting out on the town and chatting people up, while couples should schedule more date nights and perhaps even a few short trips to stir up the energy.
Of course, with passionate Mars in Scorpio and your domestic 4th House the whole month, you can do plenty of entertaining at Chez Leo, so don’t be shy about setting the scene for some scintillating activities.
Career & Money:
You enter October on a lucrative note, thanks to money-loving Venus dancing through Virgo and your 2nd House of Income and Luxury until the 13th, during which time you can help attract more wealth into your life. After this, you’ll want to focus more on networking and connecting with people who can bring more opportunities into your life, though don’t be shocked if some of these people are closer to home than you’d expect—several planets will be moving through your 4th House of Home before the month is up, and that could create new financial opportunities under your own roof, or a family member could prove the missing link between you and your next money-making venture.
Lucky Crystal:
Fiery Mars spends all of October stirring up the energy in your foundational 4th House of Feelings, which could leave you feeling frazzled, a stone that can stabilize the energy around you like agate will be most useful. Agate can help cleanse your aura and keep it from absorbing any negativity, so if there are certain moments when your spirit feels overwhelmed this month, then keep a piece of agate close by.

Meanwhile, passionate and sexy Mars will spend all of October in your social 3rd House of Communications and Local Community, so singles and couples alike should hit the town.
Singles will have more luck meeting people the old-fashioned way while out circulating, while couples should have more date nights out, remembering how it felt when you first got together. With lucky Jupiter in your technology zone loosely trining Saturn in your relationship zone, apps can yield positive results.
Career & Money:
You can make major headway on the professional front this month, thanks to the numerous heavenly bodies marching through Libra and your 2nd House of Earned Income. The Sun and Mercury are both here as the month opens, with Mercury stirring up new ideas and conversations until it leaves on the 6th, while the Sun will inspire you to broaden your financial horizons until the 22nd, with a special New Moon here on the 21st to stir up a few opportunities before it leaves.
Meanwhile, luxurious Venus will enter Libra on the 13th for four weeks, helping you attract even more abundance into your life, while also helping you spend more of your money, too.
Lucky Crystal:
Mars in your buzzy 3rd House is going to keep you busy throughout October, so a stone that keeps your energy up like carnelian will prove most helpful.

You are positively lit up this month, as the Sun, Mercury, and Venus all take their turn, visiting your sign. The Sun and Mercury are both in Libra as October arrives, and you’ll have the gift of gab from Mercury until the 6th, when it moves onto Scorpio, while the Sun will give you a special attraction until the 22nd.
As alluring as you will be thanks to those two celestial bodies, the real excitement arrives when Venus steps into your sign on the 13th, raining her blessings down on you. Singles and couples can have more luck in the romance department for the next four weeks, and with a New Moon in your sign on the 21st, you’ll be irresistible.
Career & Money:
You are hard at work as soon as October gets going, thanks to red hot Mars heating up Scorpio and your 2nd House of Earned Income for the whole of the month. Mercury will follow suit on the 6th and remain here until the 29th, and the Sun will begin its own annual tour on the 22nd, so there is going to be a progressively growing energy focusing your attention on your finances. During this time, you should be able to suss out new opportunities to earn, and also find ways to put your current funds to better use, while probably scoring a deal or two along the way. Jupiter in your 10th House of Career will also be supporting you, so don’t hold back.
Lucky Crystal:
You are in a wonderful period of renewal and refreshment with the Sun in your sign, and aventurine can be a wonderful stone to help you make the most of this cycle.

Scorpio
Positive Influences: Inspiration, Creativity, Drive
Negative Influences: Restlessness, Irritability, Temper Tantrums
Lucky Crystal: Opal
Lucky Numbers: 4, 8, 9, 13, 17, 19, 22, 26, 27
Affirmation: My sense of timing will always align with that of the cosmos.
Love & Relationships:
You have a special fire that people can’t help but notice this month, all thanks to the fact you’re hosting sexy Mars in your sign and your 1st House of Action for the whole of October. Mars is our passion and our drive, and people will be very impressed by the scintillating vibes you are emitting because of it. However, romantic Venus is entering your hidden 12th House of the Subconscious on the 13th and will remain there for four weeks, during which time you may be more interested in fairy tales than realistic romance, so beware letting yourself get carried away because you were wearing rose-colored glasses that just so happened to blind to you any red flags.
Career & Money:
It wouldn’t be all that shocking if you’re less than eager to dive into work this month; frankly, you’ve been busier than most recently, but October presents you with many opportunities to focus on your own projects and ambitions, and not worry about what other people are up to. Mars is giving you more energy than usual, while Mercury in your sign from the 6th to the 29th will help you think up brilliant new ideas for future projects. You will be more inclined to bring your work into the light when the Sun also enters your sign on the 22nd, but keep your goals under wraps until then, waiting for the right moment to make your debut.
Lucky Crystal:
Your energy is coming and going in waves as the planets split their attention between your 12th House of the Subconscious and your 1st House of Action in October, so opal will be the most helpful stone for Scorpios this month. Opal is a profoundly positive stone that can inspire creativity and loving feelings, and can help you express yourself more clearly. Opal also inspires humanitarian urges, so this is a great time to help others.

Your sign’s Tarot card will be revealed in this month’s Tarotscope article.
Sagittarius
Positive Influences: Social Support, New Friendships, Rejuvenation
Negative Influences: Lack of Clarity, Instability, Complicated Endings
Lucky Crystal: Fluorite
Lucky Numbers: 1, 5, 8, 12, 13, 18, 20, 23, 26
Affirmation: Without proper rest, I cannot be at my best.
Love & Relationships:
There is a friendly vibration to the month, so if you were expecting amorous intrigues or heart-thumping romance, you will have to wait until November for the stars to bring that to you. October is a time to hang out with friends and enjoy casual connections, which can work to your benefit if you are hoping to keep things low-key, but might not sound stimulating for Sags looking to take things to the next level.
With loving Venus in your platonic 11th House from the 13th onward, and sexy Mars hidden away in your dreamy 12th House, your road to happily-ever-after looks different, but even if the scenery is changing, you can still find ways to enjoy the ride.
Career & Money:
You can’t help shining on the professional front while alluring Venus dances through your 10th House of Career, making it easy to get rewarded for previous work and enjoy the respect and admiration of your peers. On the 13th, she will enter Libra and your 11th House of Social Networks, joining the Sun in this same sector, where you can succeed by increasing your contacts and returning to old connections that might have exciting opportunities for you.
However, with action planet Mars in Scorpio for the whole of the month (along with Mercury from the 6th to the 29th, and the Sun beginning on the 22nd) you might feel inclined to work behind the scenes, waiting to debut in November.
Lucky Crystal:
This is a sleepy month for you, Sagittarius, considering how much activity is happening in your dreamy 12th House of the Subconscious. November will be a much more active month for you, but during October, the best stone for you is fluorite, as it can help calm uneven energy and encourages more mental and emotional peace. It can also help negate stress, which is always a possibility when you have Mars acting up in your 12th House, as it is this month.
Tarot Card:
Your sign’s Tarot card will be revealed in this month’s Tarotscope article.
Capricorn
Positive Influences: Ambition, Achievements, Expansion
Negative Influences: Distractions, Wishful Thinking, Lack of Clarity
Lucky Crystal: Citrine
Lucky Numbers: 1, 2, 5, 13, 16, 19, 20, 22, 25
Affirmation: I will always reach the finish line if I just keep going.
Love & Relationships:
Jupiter continues to shine brightly in Cancer and your 7th House of Relationships throughout the month, helping you find new potential partners or make your current connections that much sweeter. Jupiter will make special trines to messenger Mercury and passionate Mars on the 24th and 28th respectively, which could provide you with terrific moments to either meet someone new with tons of potential, or to spend more time with your partner in exciting circumstances that can bring you two that much closer together.
A Quarter Moon in Cancer on the 13th can help shine a light on where you may need to improve or adjust your approach to romance.
Career & Money:
This is a month to work towards your goals. The Sun and Mercury are both spinning through Libra and your 10th House of Career as October begins, though the messenger planet will move on to Scorpio on the 6th, helping you find more networking opportunities. The Sun will be here until the 22nd, pushing you up the ladder, but the skies will host a fabulous New Moon in Libra on the 21st, so you may get a huge burst of productive energy right before the Sun switches signs.
Fortunately, with Venus arriving in Libra on the 13th, you’ll be perfectly poised to shine on the professional front and reap the rewards of all the work you’ve accomplished recently.
Lucky Crystal:
This is an incredibly productive month for you, as the Sun and several other celestial bodies transit Libra and your 10th House of Career. That being the case, citrine will be the best stone for you to keep on hand as it will ensure that your energy is put to good use and that you can also receive proper recognition and reward for the effort you expend. Citrine can help attract abundance, and you certainly deserve that, considering just how hard you’ve been working.

Lucky Crystal: Snowflake Obsidian
Lucky Numbers: 2, 4, 7, 11, 13, 18, 22, 23, 28

Love & Relationships:
Your relationships have gone through a bit of a roller coaster the last couple months, so don’t be shocked if you want to take them out of the heat in October. Loving Venus will be in Virgo and your 8th House of Intimacy until the 13th, during which time you may want to keep your romantic cards close to your chest, but you’ll be more than willing to take a bird’s eye view of things when Venus decamps to Libra and your freedom-seeking 9th House of Expansion and Adventure. This combination will make romance feel like a worldwide buffet, so don’t be shocked if you want to shake off all the recent heaviness and enjoy life a bit more.
Career & Money:
You are working your way up the ladder this month. Mars is in Scorpio and your 10th House of Career for all of October, while Mercury will march through this ambitious sector from the 6th to the 29th, helping you come up with brilliant new projects and show off that clever mind of yours.
The Sun will arrive in Scorpio on the 22nd for its annual tour, giving you even more of a boost towards the finish line. Mercury will trine Jupiter in Cancer and your 6th House of Daily Work on the 24th, with Mars following suit on the 28th, during which time you could make major progress at the office.
Lucky Crystal:
You’re going to be called upon to perform at your best this month while Mars is in your professional 10th House, Aquarius, so it’s going to be especially good for you to hold on to a stone that will help ground you and strengthen your resolve whenever faced with a challenging situation. Snowflake Obsidian is the perfect stone to do just that, and it can also help remove negativity from situations, which will come in especially helpful when you begin to feel a little overworked thanks to Mars’ constant go-go-go energy.

Love & Relationships:
Venus, the Goddess of Love and Beauty, is in Virgo and your 7th House of Relationships until the 13th, helping you improve your current connection or seek out new people who could prove the perfect partner and check off all your required boxes. With sexy Mars spending the whole of October in Scorpio and your 9th House of Adventure, you may be more inclined to pursue connections with people from different backgrounds, or perhaps you and your lover decide to do a bit of traveling, or discover new ways to inject your relationship with a bit of exotic flavor. A browse through the Kama Sutra may be exactly what the doctor ordered.
Career & Money:
There are a number of celestial bodies marching through Libra and your 8th House of Lump Sums and Shared Resources this month, which is all about building wealth, especially as it relates to other people—think everything from credit cards to inheritances, taxes to bonuses. The Sun and Mercury are here as October opens, with Mercury leaving on the 6th only to be replaced by Venus on the 13th, while the Sun will enter Scorpio on the 22nd, but not before it’s aligned with the Moon on the 21st for a sparkling New Moon in Libra, creating new financial opportunities for you. You can score major windfalls during this time, so don’t let others snap up prizes meant for you.
Lucky Crystal:
The energy is both adventurous and intense this month, and thus a stone such as amethyst which can aid mental clarity and keep you from feeling stressed will be the best stone for you to have on hand in October. You may find yourself more worn out than usual with all the activity happening in your transformational 8th House, but amethyst can help inspire more restful moments, so keep a piece nearby to ensure you don’t get too stressed.
