Hold on tight: It’s October and the planets are moving at full speed. You, on the other hand, are feeling a little…well, woozy. On October 1, a Full Moon in Aries lights up the sky, illuminating the area of your chart associated with spirituality, intuition, and psychic expression. If you’re suffering from some serious fatigue, don’t fret: This lunation is encouraging you to direct your gaze inward. Consider this permission to treat yourself to an afternoon nap or a luxurious bath infused with essential oils. Although you may not see it physically, remember that your subconscious landscape is ever-expanding—this is a wonderful opportunity to check in with your etheric dimension and make sure your wants and needs are truly being met!
Now, let’s get real about something else: Have you been sending flirty texts? I know you have, Taurus! Mercury in Scorpio has been activating your partnership zone, sending you straight into your crush’s DMs. But don’t be surprised if some technical glitches get in the way of this textual banter. On October 13, the planet of communication begins its retrograde cycle. For the next few weeks, Mercury Retrograde will cause lots of miscommunication, so plan accordingly. This doesn’t mean you should practice radio silence…but you may want to turn the dial to avoid any unnecessary static.
Then, on October 16, the Sun and Moon unite again to form a New Moon in Libra. During this lunar phase, the sky will be completely dark, stripping it all down to pure instinct. How are you feeling, Taurus? Under this sky, take a look at your schedule to make sure your day-to-day realities align with your long-term aspirations. Don’t forget: You’re a complex, dynamic bull—there’s no reason to put yourself in a box! If you feel like your calendar has become way too restrictive, it’s time to approach time management from a different perspective.
There’s a palpable shift in energy on October 22, when the Sun glides into Scorpio’s charmed domain. Most people don’t know this about you, but you actually adore Scorpio's intensity. It makes you feel alive! This, of course, is because Scorpio is your exact opposite: Your birthday season occurs in the spring, and Scorpio aligns with the fall, when those in the Northern Hemisphere begin to prepare for hibernation. Accordingly, this energy is all about duality, so don’t be surprised if you end up making things official with your “other half” over the next few weeks. Whether you’re scheduling your first Zoom date or saying “I do,” this is a powerful time to solidify bonds!
And, last but certainly not least, 2020’s only electric Full Moon in your own sign occurs on—yup—Halloween. This October 31, you'll be receiving a lot more than candy corn. Powerful information will be revealed under this lunation, so don’t be afraid to call things out. You know what you want, so speak your truth! While Halloween may be all about disguises, this Full Moon is about getting real. In order to build connections that are truly built to last, the costumes must come off.
