• Other Key Dates: 10/17, 10/22, 10/24

October is always your busiest and most social time of year. And this month brings some necessary pivots and endings as far as who and what is taking up your precious time. You’re beautifying your workspace, breaking free of the toxic group chat and RSVPing “No” to every event that doesn’t spark joy. You feel particularly empowered on the 17th when free time brings some much needed creative inspiration. Once Scorpio season begins on the 22nd, you skip out on even more social events and become one with your couch. A conflict with your partner or roommate on the 24th is uncomfortable but breaks ongoing tension so you can relax.

Love Horoscope: One of your closest relationships is being sabotaged by something left unsaid. It’s easy to avoid conflict and pretend everything is fine, but doing so is making life hard.

Here on the other side of the eclipses, you’re feeling like you just got out of a deep exfoliation treatment at the spa. Raw and clean. But remember: the gunk is going to build back up if you don’t do maintenance. October is an opportunity to build self worth through taking aligned actions. Having clear boundaries with your schedule is especially important while your ruling planet Mercury is in Scorpio from the 6th through the 29th. You don’t have the time (or the money) to please everyone, and your resources should be going to building up your own worth.

October begins with you either deep in meditation or deep in existential crisis. Probably a bit of both. You’re putting the final touches on something behind-the-scenes that will bolster your career and public image, and hopefully make you more money. Venus returns to your sign on the 13th, an influence that allows you to take better care of yourself amidst all this hard work. The new moon in Libra on the 21st is a true return to form. Wear your best outfit and celebrate all that you’ve accomplished!

Love Horoscope: Unless you’re looking to connect with someone who lives in a different time zone, the first half of the month isn’t a great time to pursue romance. Once Venus enters your sign on the 13th though, you’re much more available and willing to put yourself out there. See who’s magnetized when you’re unabashedly yourself.

With your ruling planet Saturn spending another few months in your income sector, this is a great time to save and structure, not to spend. The you of Spring 2026 will thank present you for making good choices. You’re also feeling pressure to show up and take the lead.
