October Horoscopes

MERCURY RETROGRADE EDITION!

Mercury retrograde is an astrological situation that has been shrouded in myth,

storytelling, and plain’ old fear for years. Despite of what you may have heard about

Mercury Retrograde periods (technology shuts down, communication funks up, etc),

the true meaning of it for ALL SIGNS, is to go within. Take your thought processes,

and make them more internal. Communicate with yourself. Cultivate those genius

thoughts that only you can conjure in your own head. Recognize that same genius in

others as well. We’re all re-learning how to THINK. Keep that in mind while reading.

MUCH LOVE!,

 Aries: Mercury retrograde will be in your opposite sign of Libra some time this

month, so now’s a good time to work on the listening part of communication. You

may come into contact with people who have some ideas that are different from

yours, and that may widen your perspectives. Remember to stay engaged, listen

wholly, and make a conscious effort to give leeway in an argument. Speak truthfully,

but listen even more deeply. Work with harmony in mind.




 Taurus: Around the 23rd

around a powerful, exuberant person or energy. Maintain your stable, calm Taurean

self, but feel free to learn about how to bond with someone, on a deeply intimate

and psychological level. This energy is here to teach you how to just “go there” to

that deep “soulful” place, but with others. Try it out. It truly is the “missing piece”

you need to feel more fulfilled.

 Gemini: Mercury retrograde has a tendency to affect Gemini’s (and Virgo’s), and

many Gemininians claim that it throws them for a loop. Fortunately, this retrograde

period is happening in your sister Air sign of Libra, which means that although it

may affect you, It’ll come as more of a benefit, then an impediment. Pay attention to

your words around the 13th

used to help benefit both yourself and those around you. You’ll go FAR if they do.

 (and on) of this month, you may find yourself gravitating

. Make sure your words and thoughts are actually being

 Cancer: You’re navigating through a sensitive space right now, Cancer. Being in

touch with your emotions is always important for you, but now awareness of your

emotions is extremely important as you navigate the terrain of your soul more

deeply. Working with meditation and remembering your dreams is important

through this time, because a lot may be shown to you through the subconscious

realm. Use this clarity on the 14th to help heal any Mercury retrograde tensions.

 Leo: As the big homie Jupiter continues to move through your sign, you’ll find that

big new opportunities are making themselves felt and seen in your life. These

changes can be perceived as a “rite of passage” – a declaration of growth, expansion,

and tuning into a higher level of knowledge. Look at your life this month and see

what can be done to expand your self-value. Maybe it’s time to travel, or move. The

world is your oyster. Mercury retrograde says to consider it.

 Virgo: Like Gemini, Mercury retrogrades tend have a strong affect on Virgo’s,

as Mercury is both of y’alls’ patron planet. Around the 19th

to go within, spend some time with yourself, and reestablishing the effortless

connection between your emotions and your thoughts. Clean up the house. Get your

surroundings to reflect the calmness that is within. This is the way to get your A+

this Mercury retrograde.

 Libra: Yup, it’s #LibraSeason, and not only are you celebrating your birthday, the

whole universe is celebrating you too! Your attention and awareness is being

imbued with a keen sense of perception this month, so use it. Your intellectual

faculties (critical thinking, learning, problem solving) will be on overdrive, as

Mercury is retrograding back through your sign. This can be a good time to exercise

your natural Libran skills and do some mental-artistic activities (poetry, anyone?).

Stay especially aware of omens, synchronicities, reoccurring situations, and “Angel

Numbers” (333, 555, 999 etc.). They usually present themselves around mercury

retrograde periods, to your benefit.

 Scorpio: We enter #ScorpioSeason on October 23rd

with a theme: Love. The skies are giving Scorpio the Venus blessing to fall in love ,

and not just with other people, but with yourself and all of creation. Forreal. Take

those deep emotions and thoughts, and direct them toward higher, lighter ways of

thinking and feeling. This Mercury Retrograde actually starts off in Scorpio (on the

, then works it’s way backwards through Libra), which is asking your thought

process to shift itself inwards for the purpose of changing anything that Ain’t love,

INTO LOVE. Learning to take things easily and peacefully seems easy, but it can be a

difficult task for Scorpio. You got this. Just keep lovin’.

 Sagittarius: From the 4th

Mars, Jupiter, and Uranus all align to support you taking those famous leaps out on

faith that you’re so good at, Sagittarius. Around the 14th

Mercury retrograde to think quick, and to act even quicker – to make a decision

about doing something you believe in. Trust yourself, but stay humble, and you’ll

find yourself in yet another position to thank the universe for the gift it’s given you.

Capricorn: With Capricorn, it’s business as usual until around the end of the month

when you’ll be receiving a nice surge of that WARRIOR energy (from around the

 on). Keep going strong, dear Sea-Goat. You’ll be receiving a lot of positive

29th

energy from strong, psychologically savvy friends and lovers with whom you can

communicate about all of things that matter in life to Capricorn – like death and

taxes (just kidding). Keep your communication light and flexible this retrograde

period.

 Aquarius: Aquarius has been receiving helpful energy from it’s sister Air sign Libra

all this month, as you learn to seize the opportunities ahead of you. This retrograde

period will bring you more and more insight into other people, and will give more

people insight into you as well. No time for power struggles this month; use your

naturally altruistic and objective mind to turn social situations that could seem

intense, into an opportunity to bring love and truth and open- into the situation

 Pisces: Share, Share, Share! This #LibraSeason comes during Harvest time, and

Pisces, you’ve been harvesting! Now is the time to disseminate onto other people

all of that spiritual, imaginative stuff you’ve been on lately. Share your intuitive

gifts with folks in your field of work (whether subtly or overtly), and see how it

starts to benefit those around you. Trust that your voice has value, and that your

natural tendency to think a bit differently than others around you is important this

retrograde period – cause it is.
