wb_sunny The Month Ahead
October 2026October places Scorpio in the spotlight, as Venus and Mercury both travel through your sign. Venus turns retrograde in Scorpio on October 3, making this a time to reflect on your self-image, what you value in yourself and how you relate to others. Mercury conjoins Venus in your sign on October 7, which can bring an honest inner dialogue or a meaningful exchange. With Mars and Jupiter in Leo, career and public standing are in motion, and Venus squaring Mars in the first half may bring friction between personal wishes and professional demands. The Libra New Moon falls in your inner realm, a good moment for rest and quiet planning.
Pluto ends its retrograde in mid-month in your home and family sector, so a long-running issue around family or living space may start moving. The Sun enters your sign on October 23 and meets Venus the next day, opening your season with emotional depth. Mercury turns retrograde in Scorpio right after, so revisiting personal plans may be wiser than rushing into new ones. The Full Moon in Taurus on October 26 lights up partnerships, and the Sun's square to Pluto at the same time may ask you to balance your own needs with life at home.
