This month it looks as though you have been sprinkled with wanderlust and are aching to get out to enjoy the beauty of the season. Whether you live in the northern hemisphere, where nature has used her paintbrush to color the leaves a rich red, brilliant gold, and bright orange, all contrasted against deep green pine and deep brown bark, or in the southern hemisphere, where spring is raging a riot in gorgeous pastels, painting roses, tulips, hyacinth, cherry blossoms, and daffodils that so deftly bring the landscape to life\u2014clearly, it\u2019s time to pack and go.<\/p>\n
The October 6 full moon will be in adventuresome Aries, so you may want to get in your car and explore a region completely new to you. If you can get out and hike, run, mountain bike, or rock climb or go camping, all the better. This full moon will light your third house of short-distance travel and be quite friendly. If you want to travel with your sibling or, instead, to go see your sister or brother, that\u2019s very possible now, too.<\/p>\n
Alternatively (or additionally), the third house also rules writing, editing, translating, negotiating contracts, and indulging in other communication arts. You may be putting the final touches on a new website, smartphone app, digital game, innovative software, or your manuscript, or you may be editing a movie you created. Full moons bring closure, and it looks like you\u2019ll enjoy this full moon.<\/p>\n
Aquarians who have a birthday that falls within five days, plus or minus, of February 2 will be those that will be the most strongly touched by this full moon. The same is true if you have Aquarius, Gemini, Libra, Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius rising at 14 degrees, plus or minus five degrees, for you, too, will also enjoy this full moon quite a bit. All full moons have an area of influence of five days beyond the date they occur, so you would notice the news and result of this full moon somewhere between October 5 and October 10.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Last month Mars entered your tenth house of honors, awards, and achievements, so since September 22, it has been a superb time for you to get the attention of VIPs and present your ideas. Mars has not been in this part of your chart for two years, so while you have Mars working for you to get ahead, you may have made progress in job hunting or scoring victories. You will continue to have Mars at your side until November 4, when Mars will enter Sagittarius. At that point next month, the pressure will be off, and you can ramp up your social life.<\/p>\n
You need to get as much as possible done this month because of several factors coming up in November. It will likely be a frustrating month whereby you will have to be very alert to catch unexpected developments and fix them before they create havoc. I will give you a preview of November (something I rarely do, but you\u2019ll understand why shortly).<\/p>\n
First, Mercury will go retrograde from November 9 to November 29, however you will feel the approaching Mercury retrograde before it actually turns (probably by the beginning of November, if not earlier). Mercury will start to retrograde in Sagittarius (and your friendship sector) but very quickly move backward into your prestigious tenth house of career. If you are interviewing for a job, you might have to be patient while the entire process slows down mysteriously. It may be that executives are traveling, and you need to wait until they return. Or the executives you are seeing may have reviewed a number of candidates, and those VIPs may suddenly change the description of their ideal candidate.<\/p>\n
The full moon on October 6 will allow you to travel short distances, and then at new moon October 20, you will be able to travel much farther.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
<\/p>\n
However, you could use the upside of Mercury retrograde by going back to people you used to work with (and who you enjoyed working with). They would be prime prospects for a future opportunity. If you were almost hired at a firm some time ago, making the short list of applicants, go back and reopen the conversation\u2014they may have hired the wrong person, are unhappy, and may be thrilled you came to say hello.<\/p>\n
The problem with November won\u2019t be Mercury retrograde\u2014by now you are likely used to his antics. A much bigger problem will be your ruling planet. Uranus is known for genius, innovation, and independence and is responsible for your forward, futuristic vision and your propensity to be a pathfinder to discovery. When in a tough aspect (as will happen next month), Uranus can be nerve jangling. Let me show you.<\/p>\n
Next month we have a full moon on November 5 in Taurus, which will light your home, property, and family sector. Something is coming to a conclusion in regard to this area of your life. You may be moving, seeing a finish to a renovation, or getting a furniture delivery.<\/p>\n
At the same time as this full moon, Mars, by then at 1 degree Sagittarius, will receive an opposition from your ruler Uranus at 1 degree Gemini. This is a very tough aspect\u2014it often produces anger, surprise, jarring events, impulsiveness, and reckless behavior. Uranus will be in your love sector, and Mars will be in your friendships sector, so a friend, a sweetheart you are dating, or one of your children could make a comment or take an action suddenly that might unnerve you or get you upset. I would advise you to keep your cool next month in the first week, but I realize that it will be hard to do. (This will not affect your relationship with your spouse or long-time partner.)<\/p>\n
You might assume that the new moon later in the month will be much better, but it will not be\u2014it will be worse. The new moon of November 20 will be in Scorpio and crest in your professional career sector. But this time Uranus will clash with the Sun and new moon in a severe opposition, causing you to feel pulled in two directions\u2014between career and family. This will also affect your ability to get along with your spouse or business partner and with peers and subordinates that you hired to help you at home or at work.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I will also ask you to watch for problems with computers at the time of the new moon. Make sure you back up your computer data and have the most current version of security protection on your digital devices. Watch your credit card statements, and monitor your bank statements to be sure there is no untoward, unauthorized activity on them.<\/p>\n
Crooks are stealing letters in the mail that hold checks, washing them, and then making the check out to themselves, while keeping your signature intact. Watch social media, and make sure no one is pretending to be you to try to confuse and steal your followers. Scams will proliferate, too. Uranus rules digital, high-tech forms. You will have to stay alert.<\/p>\n
You will, thankfully, have help from several planets. Saturn and Neptune, both in Pisces and your second house of earned income, will join hands with Jupiter in Cancer in your work-a-day project sector (including what you do at home as well as at the office), and those three planets will contact the Sun and new moon in Scorpio. This will create a beautiful water-sign golden triangle of supreme harmony, and that will help to counter some of the haywire effects of Uranus.<\/p>\n
With Uranus acting like a wild child, November will be quite a messy month, not to mention the overlapping of Mercury retrograde. This is why you need to put the pedal to the metal and get done everything on your list you can this month. October will be a far more positive month than November, which will demand flexibility. The good news is, December will be all you hope it to be.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s come back to October now and discuss the new moon of October 20 in lovely Libra, a sign that blends beautifully with yours. As I mentioned at the start of your report, it seems you are anxious to travel and see something new. Your full moon on October 6 in your third house will allow you to travel short distances, and then at this new moon, you will be able to travel much farther. You won\u2019t lose momentum on the job\u2014Jupiter will be in direct and mathematically tight conversation with Saturn and Neptune, protecting your reputation and future chances for growth. You seem to want to bring your entire family on any trip you take, and it would be fun if you do.<\/p>\n
SUMMARY<\/strong><\/p>\n
It\u2019 s time to hit the road and see more of life. Everything in your chart is coaxing you to pack and go. The full moon on October 6 appears to be giving you the impetus to travel to a northern location, perhaps to a beautiful spot in the backwoods where fall foliage is in a full technicolor display of dazzling color, or perhaps you will find an old country dirt road that will lead to a farm with an apple orchard, one that might offer you to have fun apple picking.<\/p>\n
Alternatively, on your time off near the full moon October 6, you may want to get some exercise and participate in sports. You might instead go to a sunny location and go camping or go to a ranch where rock climbing, horseback riding, mountain biking, hiking, and other adventuresome sports are accessible.<\/p>\n
Alternatively, at the October 6 full moon, you may be asked to sign papers. Take your time, and make sure you don\u2019t miss any clauses that could prove troublesome later. Consider hiring a lawyer to catch anything you might miss.<\/p>\n
When it comes to your career, you are on a roll and headed onward and upward. Mars, which will take prominence at this full moon, is located in your prestigious tenth house of honors, awards, and achievements. This makes this month an excellent time to\u00a0\u00a0create a lucrative, high-stakes deal or to look for a new, better position, if you are not happy in your present job.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A perfect day to make a financial decision will be October 8 when Venus in Virgo (in your eighth house ruling investments and deals) and Jupiter, the good fortune planet (in your sixth house of work) will be in ideal sync.<\/p>\n
Moving ahead, the October 21 new moon may lay the groundwork for more travel, this time a much farther distance away. You will encounter obstacles, however, perhaps with import-export or with government paperwork for visa or citizenship, as some examples. If you are working on a story for publication or a TV segment, you may need to put in more time and effort than you initially anticipated.<\/p>\n
The full moon of October 21 also will emphasize higher education regarding university study. Thanks to a lovely supportive vibration from Jupiter to Mars and Mercury in you tenth house of fame, you will be victorious if you are persistent when you encounter occasional obstacles.<\/p>\n
If you need to make a presentation or have an important career interview, choose Monday, October 27, when Mars in Scorpio in your prestigious career sector (tenth house) will receive golden vibrations from benefic Jupiter. You can easily impress high-level, influential VIPs on this magical day.<\/p>\n
October will be a more productive month than November, for next month, Mercury will retrograde from November 9 to November 29. If you are in a collaborative situation, you will find your partners are slow to make decisions in November, or they will be hard to reach. If you need approval from higher-ups, the same will be true\u2014the pace won\u2019t speed up until December. That\u2019s not all. We have a difficult full moon (November 5) and an even more challenging new moon (November 20). Do yourself a favor and accomplish your most pressing matters with the longest range potential in October, and plan to coast in November.<\/p>\n
Finally, romantically, you will find Cupid\u2019s angels above quite effective for you when Venus slips into fellow air-sign Libra from October 13 until November 6. This is a perfect time to see about refreshing your appearance in any way you like. Within that period, Venus will be zinged by Uranus in Gemini, making October 14 sparkle for love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
