If you’ve been brainstorming innovative ways to boost your bank account balance, don’t be surprised if your “eureka moment” occurs during the Full Moon in Aries on October 1. Under this electric sky, you have a brilliant idea that just might be crazy enough to work! But, in order to turn this fantasy into a reality, you need to make a plan. So try to minimize directions by taking a few minutes to turn off your phone, light a few lucky candles, and visualize your wallet expanding. What will you do with all that cash, Pisces? Remember the “rule of three”: Anything you do comes back to you threefold, so in order to seal your intention, consider making a generous donation to an organization or non-profit that supports your values. Then sit back, relax, and watch the bucks multiply!

But watch out! On October 13, Mercury goes retrograde in Scorpio’s domain, which has a way of making everything a bit…annoying. Is your new crush actually available…or have they just neglected to tell you that they’re already in a relationship? I’m sorry to say, but this type of deception is common during Mercury’s backwards boogie. For the next few weeks, make sure you’re performing your due diligence by asking a lot of thoughtful questions. If you’re confused by something, don’t be afraid to ask for clarification! You deserve to know the truth!

Just a few days later on October 16, the New Moon in Libra will blanket the sky. There’s no nocturnal illumination, so you’ll be left with your own thoughts and feelings. Don’t be surprised if you suddenly start to recall memories that have been untouched for many, many years. The vibes may be heavy, so be sure to ramp up your self-care practices. Connect with your watery, mermaid spirit by submerging yourself in an aromatic bath or shower. Give yourself permission to connect with your emotions on a sensory level. If you’re feeling inspired, go ahead and let it out. Cry, scream, yell, howl—tap into your animal instincts! This is a full-body experience, Pisces, so go ahead and let yourself experience the full depth of your feelings.

All that wailing will be rewarded on October 22, when the Sun enters Scorpio. Although Scoprio is often associated with dark and brooding energy, as a like-minded water sign, the energy actually feel quite uplifting. In fact, Scorpio season illuminates your adventurous spirit and for the next few weeks, you’ll enjoy a surge of well-deserved confidence. How delightful! Now, you’re willing to take some exciting risks—don’t be afraid to put yourself out there! You’re radiating magnetic energy, so go for the gold!

Finally, the month concludes with another dramatic lunation—but this one is extra otherworldly. The Full Moon in Taurus occurs on October 31 (yes, Halloween) and for you, Pisces love, this means mischief. You’ll be feeling extra playful under the light of the Moon, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself starting a bit of trouble. I know you love dressing up and exploring the fantasy dimension, but under this sky, you may not want to push it too far. After all, Mercury is still retrograde, so you don’t end up sending the wrong message—otherwise, you may end up feeling like your life has become a horror movie. Yikes!
