Compared to other months that you have come through lately, October will be quiet. This is likely good news, for you will be able to follow your personal agenda without fear that you will suddenly be blown off course. Work with a sense of purpose so that you can complete all of your most vital actions now\u2014don\u2019t let tasks lapse into November. November will be a difficult, trying month for nearly everyone.<\/p>\n
Mercury will retrograde from November 9 to November 29, but you will begin to feel the slowdown much sooner, possibly starting as early as the last days of October. We always feel the postponements, delays, client indecision, forgetfulness, and problems with electronics start to happen two weeks before the formal turn backward. Mercury will start its retrograde in Sagittarius, but most of the time Mercury will retrograde in Scorpio, and if anyone owes you money, Mercury may slow down payments to you in November.<\/p>\n
I want you to start your holiday shopping this month, and be sure not to shop for expensive gifts in November. By \u201cexpensive gifts\u201d I am mainly referring to electronic items like a computer, smartphone, kitchen appliance, or car. I would also put off buying high-priced jewelry or furniture (mattresses, too). Also, it isn\u2019t wise to sign contracts if you can help it\u2014sign in October or in December. Mercury retrograde, however, is not the most pressing reason I am concerned about November.<\/p>\n
Uranus will oppose both Mars and Mercury next month on November 4, one day prior to the full moon on November 5. The full moon will only heighten emotions. Mars opposed to Uranus is a hot aspect that can cause people to have outbursts of anger or rebellion. It can make people engage in reckless or impulsive behavior. It is a time of unstable, volatile emotions.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
That full moon on November 5 will be in Taurus, and for you it will emphasize money. You may be getting to the end of a financial deal but are likely to run into problems due to the wild and woolly environment of November.<\/p>\n
In early November, Mercury and Mars will still be in Sagittarius, both receiving opposition from a retrograde Uranus in Gemini, 1 degree (Uranus is heading into a late degree of Taurus but is not yet there). Long story short: Early November would not be a time to travel. Mars and Uranus will be cutting across your two travel sectors, your third and ninth houses. When Mars and Uranus have a conflict, their influence extends for days, both before and after their meeting.<\/p>\n
Things are about to get worse. At the new moon in Scorpio on November 20, Uranus will be in Taurus, 29 degrees, and the Sun and new moon will be in Scorpio, 28 degrees. As you see, unpredictable Uranus will attack both the Sun and new moon directly. That is a very tight opposition, and it could make for an unexpected expense that shocks you.<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve been making impressive career progress with Jupiter in Cancer, and a link with Mars this month could bring even more opportunities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/p>\n
Uranus is known to create difficulties that you simply cannot plan to avoid, because Uranus will always act in an unpredictable way. We are all in the same boat\u2014everyone will feel this new moon in November to some extent. Uranus rules the digital and tech world, including computer data and the transmission of information. I worry that you could have computer problems and data loss, or someone could pretend they are you on social media.<\/p>\n
Be sure you have your hard drive backed up and that your computer has the most recent version of malware protection. Check your bank statements and credit card transactions. Scams will proliferate. We will all need to stay alert.<\/p>\n
This is why I need you to complete as much as possible in October and table any outstanding items until December. I will remind you of all of this next month. Having a fairly calm, uneventful October may be fine with you\u2014you\u2019ve had enough stimulation lately!<\/p>\n
Now let\u2019s focus on this month\u2014October.<\/p>\n
October starts with a full moon in Aries, 14 degrees, on October 6. This is a nice full moon, and it will bring your attention to your partner if you are married or in a seriously committed romantic relationship. Alternatively, this full moon can point to your business partner, agent, publicist, accountant, lawyer, or another professional who you work with closely.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It seems your partner will have some surprising, positive news to give you. Uranus will be beautifully oriented to inspirational Neptune from his perch in your ninth house, so your partner may want to take an important trip with you, one that has exciting possibilities.<\/p>\n
There is exquisite balance in the universe, so after the full moon focuses you on your partner in love or business, the new moon coming two weeks later on October 21 will appear in Libra.<\/p>\n
This is a great new moon full of sugar and spice. This new moon will allow you to see enormous progress with a project dear to your heart, and it will assist you in making new relationships and building on current ones.<\/p>\n
On October 27 a lovely aspect will occur involving action Mars, currently in Scorpio, in perfect trine (super-harmonious vibration) to good-fortune Jupiter. Jupiter is based in your tenth house of honors, awards, and achievements, so this link with Mars could bring you a second source of income or a raise at your current job.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You\u2019ve been making impressive career progress since June 9, the date Jupiter first entered your prestigious career advancement sector. Having benefic Jupiter in this area of your chart is a wonderful advantage, for Jupiter can provide lucky breaks and put you in the right place at the right time to scoop up sterling opportunities.<\/p>\n
Your journey to the top is not likely to stop anytime soon. You have until June 30, 2026, to enjoy Jupiter\u2019s extraordinary career luck. You\u2019ve waited 12 years for Jupiter to arrive in your prestigious professional tenth house, and now that Jupiter is there, you have a tiger by the tail. Don\u2019t let go!<\/p>\n
Halloween is coming on October 31, and the transiting moon will be in visionary Pisces, nearly guaranteeing that the costumes will be imaginative this year. If your children want to go trick-or-treating in the neighborhood, accompany them yourself rather than leaving that task to a neighbor or babysitter.<\/p>\n
I say this because warrior Mars is getting ready to make an exact opposition to unpredictable Uranus, a bold, volcanic aspect that can cause anger, road rage, and reckless actions. You are a responsible person, but not everyone else is, and that concerns me. This aspect will peak on November 4, the day prior to the November full moon, so it will be \u201cwithin orb\u201d of mathematical significance on Halloween night. If you\u2019ve been invited to a party, take a cab home rather than drive. Have fun, but make it an early night.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
SUMMARY<\/strong><\/p>\n
You are in one of those rare periods when you know your career is moving skyward in spectacular fashion. Opportunities are starting to come your way from all directions, and the work you\u2019ve done in the past is contributing to your glowing reputation.<\/p>\n
On October 6 the full moon (and the days that follow it during the work week) will be a time to look up from your desk and give your romantic partner\u2014whether this be your exclusive sweetheart or spouse\u2014all your loving attention.<\/p>\n
Your significant other may have felt a little neglected or not as successful when compared to your recent stellar progress. Admittedly, you are certainly experiencing a magnificent period of professional growth, and thanks to Jupiter, your blazing career progress has only just begun. Opportunity and praise will continue to rain on you the rest of this year and half of next year, until June 30, 2026. By that time you will have established yourself on an entirely new level.<\/p>\n
Your annual new moon in Libra will come up next, on October 21, and at first you may face an obstacle because Pluto will be in a bossy mood. You seem able to deal with the pressure that Pluto exerts, however, thanks to a grand water trine (that\u2019s a golden triangle of harmony) involving Mars in Scorpio in your financial second house, Saturn in Pisces in your work-a-day project sector (sixth house), and benefic Jupiter in Cancer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With Jupiter in your tenth house of career, ruling honors, awards, and achievements, your hard work could easily add up to a new title with increased power, influence, salary, and benefits, too. Pluto will make you prove yourself to a VIP, but the other little planets will be pulling together to be sure you can\u2014and do!<\/p>\n
This all suggests that you will be working on a special project soon, one that appears to be earning you a generous amount of money, along with the respect of others in your company or industry. Give these projects your all, for the quality of your work is adding considerable glow to your reputation.<\/p>\n
The October 21 new moon is a peach, for it can open a new career path for you. Venus will take the lead, and happily, Uranus in Gemini sent sparkling vibrations to Venus in Libra on October 14, forming a trine (divine harmony). The two planets will still be close enough mathematically for this trine to continue its golden vibrations through October 21. You certainly will be popular with just about everyone, both in your personal life and your professional life. What a wonderful birthday gift for you!<\/p>\n
Get as much done this month as possible, including your holiday shopping. If you want to buy an electronic item, purchase it immediately, and keep in mind that a car and kitchen appliances would be considered electronic products. Mercury will go retrograde from November 9 to November 29, causing havoc during almost all of next month. (You will feel the slowdown and delays possibly as early as October 25.)<\/p>\n
With Mars close enough to be considered opposed to Uranus on October 31, you may want to delay a trip you were planning to take. This aspect is not at all positive or conducive for love or business. Skip the day and make it an early night. Hide under the covers\u2014you deserve a night of blissful sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
