October Astrological Forecast by Sade McKenzie

 

Out with the old, in with the new!

 October offers a dynamic mix of energies, urging us to take action, transform, and seek balance in our personal and interpersonal lives!

 

Starting out the month, we have a Libra Solar Eclipse, on October 2nd, bringing themes of relationships, fairness, and balance to the forefront. Because this Eclipse sits on the south node axis, it signifies a final letting go and cord cutting of outdated relationship dynamics, while simultaneously welcoming in new aligned partnerships.

 

The beautiful thing about this Eclipse season is Venus (the ruler of this eclipse), Mars, and Saturn make a water Trine in Scorpio, Cancer, Pisces. This means that there is alignment between our emotional needs and our decisions to close out old cycles of our life. We are finally showing up as our most authentic self, which allows us to feel safe in our new connections.

 

 

A Time to Pause and Reflect on how far you’ve come!

On October 9th generous and benefic Jupiter will station retrograde until Feb 2025! When Jupiter and Gemini come  together it equals BIG growth and FAST change. However, sometimes the change happens so fast that we end up missing a few steps -which unsettles our foundation. Jupiter in Gemini wants to bring our ideas (Gemini) to a larger audience and platform (Jupiter), but first we have to take care of the details and practicality of our ideas. These next four months will give the collective an opportunity to slow down, revise and edit the Gemini area of their chart, reflect on the current relevance of their ideas, and prepare for greater reward once Juputer stations direct.

 

Pluto, the planet of transformation and ascension, will station direct on October 11th in the sign Capricorn for the last time in our lifetime! This is a big deal for the collective, but especially Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Capricorn, Libra) as they have been the center target for learning key lessons on power and authority these past 15 years. Pluto wants to transform us into our highest potential, but in order to do that it first has to destroy all of the self limiting beliefs that we have been attached to. Pluto will officially enter Aquarius this November for the next 20 years, which means there is no going back to the old world. This is an important time to pause, acknowledge how far you have come on your journey, grieve the parts of you that are no longer, and most importantly,  prepare for the future and what's to come.

 

Passionate Play!

 Now on a more playful note, we have a Full Moon in Aries on the 17th, adding a little more fire and spice into our life! ! Full Moons are a time of culmination, realization and letting go. A Full Moon in Aries wants us to activate our fearless independence, and pave our own way in society.  What is your definition of a leader? Where have you neglected putting your needs first? How can you tap into your own personal power?

 

Adding more fire to the mix, Venus moves into optimistic and adventurous Sagittarius on the 17th, giving us an opportunity to expand our horizons in love, travel, and intellectual connections. Sagittarius reminds us to take life less seriously and find the silver lining in it all. Life is an adventure, and Venus is Sagittarius wants us to enjoy the ride with good company!

 

Last but certainly not least, the Sun will make its way out of Libra and move into Scorpio on the 22nd. With the Sun and Mercury both in the sign of Scorpio expect their to be more passion in how we communicate and express ourself. Mercury in Scorpio likes to discover hidden secrets and merge with the unknown. You mix this with Venus in free spirited Sagittarius, and we have a taboo filled ending to our October!

 

Key things to consider this month: Endings of old karmic relationship cycles, Relationships with authority and power, Tapping into ones own personal power, Beginning a new cycle of play and adventure.
