New
Moon Oct 7 at 2:46 PM EDT/ 11:46 AM PDT at 14 Libr 24. Plus Mercury-Saturn
at 7-8 Libr. Hopefully a respite from September.
Full
Moon Oct 22 at 9:38 PM EDT/ 6:38 PM PDT at 29 Ari 33. Offering a little
release of tension by trining/sextiling Pluto at 3 Capr and Neptune-Chiron
at 25-26 Aqu.
Planetary
Changes:
Venus
turning Retrograde Oct 8 at 3:06 AM EDT/ 12:06 AM PDT at 13 Scor 13.
Mercury

Mercury
into Scorpio Oct 20 at 5:20 PM EDT/ 2:20 PM PDT.
Sun
into Scorpio Oct 23 at 8:36 AM EDT/ 5:36 AM PDT.
Mars

Key
Aspects:
Mercury
opposes Jupiter retro Oct 1 at 6:37 PM EDT/ 3:37 PM PDT from 27 Virg
00. Here comes Mercury following in the Sun’s footsteps, crossing
the Saturn corner of the current T-Square. So communication and travel
issues are up for the next few days. Positive thoughts while the Sun-Saturn
conjunction keeps things sober.
Mercury
opposes Uranus retro Oct 2 at 10:24 AM EDT/ 7:24 AM PDT from 28 Virg
10. Great time for new ideas, breakthroughs.
Venus
conjuncts Mars Oct 3 at 5:59 PM EDT/ 2:59 PM PDT at 12 Scor 51. Maybe
this can help with the fact that there are really no easy aspects in the
sky today. A quick kiss from Venus before she goes retrograde and leaves
Mars on his own.
Mercury
squares Pluto Oct 5 at 2:08 AM EDT/ Oct 4 at 11:08 PM PDT from 2 Libr
54. Good for concentrating your thoughts, being persuasive, or sneaky.
Mercury
conjuncts Saturn Oct 8 at 7:36 AM EDT/ 4:36 AM PDT at 8 Libr 39. Mercury
with Saturn-Pluto suggests some pretty heavy words.
Mercury
conjuncts Sun Oct 16 at 9:06 PM EDT/ 6:06 PM PDT at 23 Libr 33. Trining
Neptune-Chiron at 26 Aqu, could bring healing thoughts or words after that
tough first week this month.
Mars
squares Neptune retro Oct 22 at 11:37 AM EDT/ 8:37 AM PDT from 25 Scor
58. Also squaring Chiron, but trining Jupiter-Uranus at 24-27 Pisc. Blind
but well-meaning motives and acts??
Mercury
conjuncts Venus retro Oct 25 at 9:18 AM EDT/ 6:18 AM PDT at 7 Scor 36. A
welcome softening after Mercury’s rough trip earlier this month. Soothing
or harmonizing words and thoughts, followed by…
Sun
conjuncts Venus retro Oct 28 at 9:11 PM EDT/ 6:11 PM PDT at 5 Scor 30.
Real potential harmonizing, with sextile to Pluto at 3 Cap.
In
addition Mercury trines Neptune Oct 17-18, Mercury trines Chiron Oct 17-18,
Sun trines Neptune Oct 18-19, Sun trines Chiron Oct 19, Mars trines Jupiter
Oct 20, Mercury sextiles Pluto Oct 22, Mars trines Uranus Oct 23-24, Sun
sextiles Pluto Oct 26.
