October cruises in at full speed, so let’s get right into it, shall we? On October 1, a Full Moon in Aries (your opposite sign) sends shockwaves into the area of your chart associated with partnerships, unions, and agreements. Don’t deny it, Libra: You’re all about relationships (after all, you’re symbolized by the scales—balance is in your blood). But, under this sky, remember that bonds should not be formed out of boredom…they’re major commitments! At the start of the month, you may realize that you jumped into a relationship way too quickly. In fact, you may have entered the partnership for all the wrong reasons. But don’t fret, Libra babe. Think of a relationship like an agreement. If the partnership structure is no longer working, this is a great time to practice your negotiation skills. Not all contracts are made to last forever!
But you may want to make sure you sign on the dotted line before October 13, because that’s when Mercury begins its three-week long retrograde cycle. Yes, my love, it’s happening again. But if the concept of “Mercury Retrograde” feels truly frightening, remember that this planetary reversal certainly serves headaches, but not total and complete destruction. Simply plan in advance by making sure you’re emotionally prepared for miscommunications and malfunctions. Is your microphone muted? Did you enter the wrong Zoom room? Did you accidentally purchase thirty throw pillows instead of three? Of course you did! But let it roll off your back, Libra: This too shall pass.
One date that you will want to note is October 16, when the Moon aligns the Sun in your own sign, forming 2020’s only New Moon in Libra. For you, this is a big deal. The Moon represents your emotions, and now more than ever, you’re beginning to tap into your instincts. This isn’t just about your wants—it’s about your deepest needs. It’s about feeling safe, secure, and satiated. Don't be afraid to ask for what you need under this sky. You may be the mediator of the zodiac, but sometimes, justice demands a fight. Don’t be afraid to turn up the heat.
On October 22, it’s time to pass the proverbial birthday candle to your zodiac neighbor: Scorpio season begins on October 22 and, for the next few weeks, the Sun will be drifting through this elusive water sign. Yes, you’re no longer the center of attention, but—believe it or not—this seasonal shift will give you plenty to celebrate. I’m talking about money, honey! Scorpio illuminates the area of your chart associated with wealth and personal finances, so don’t be surprised if you’re presented with lots of exciting financial opportunities. Whether you’re preparing to receive a promotion or exploring some odd jobs for extra cash, your bank account will be sure to feel fulfilled. Enjoy the upgrade!
And, last but certainly not least, the month concludes with a second Full Moon (referred to as a Blue Moon) on—you guessed it—October 31. Halloween. How haunting! This fierce Full Moon in Taurus will electrify the area of your chart associated with health and wellness, so if you’ve been burning the candle at both ends, you may want to emphasize “treats” over “tricks.” Give yourself permission to slow down, Libra. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, it’s okay to ask for help! Trust that your closest companions are there for a reason—they want you to succeed. Under this sky, be sure that your cup is full. In other words, give yourself a few pieces of candy before they’re all gone!
