Horoscope on October 8, 2019
Aquarius
When introspective Pluto goes direct in driven Capricorn on October 3, you’re starting to think about getting your way again. Unlike your passive mood during the more contemplative retrograde period, you’re anxious to get back into a position of power and influence. A Mercury-Uranus opposition on the seventh increases the pace, and you might feel scattered and torn between the many things on your to-do list. Your nervousness can show itself in any number of odd ways, so try to be aware of the impression you’re making on the people you interact with. A similarly stressful opposition between Venus and Uranus on October 12 can cause increased tension in a romantic setting, especially when there are surprise announcements and unwelcome news. Being the recipient of a message you weren’t expecting could throw you off guard in a way that won’t be easy to recover from quickly. Hang in there, Aquarius. More frustration accompanies the Mars-Saturn square on the twenty-seventh, as you feel caught between what you want and what is keeping you from getting it. Limitations, rules, and obstacles all seem as though they’re working against you, but where there’s a will there’s a way. Find a way around those blockages instead of trying to go through them.
Aries
When powerful Pluto goes direct in Capricorn on October 3, it’s time to say goodbye to your weaknesses. It’s not always easy to let go of destructive behaviors, but right now you have the power to say no and mean it. Also on the third, powerful Mars, your ruler, enters gentle Libra, so you’ll lean toward solving problems with tact rather than force. This can be a gentle break for the people around you, Aries. When loving Venus enters intense Scorpio on October 8, nothing is trivial. You take nothing for granted and leave no stone unturned when searching for the truth. Love is your goal, and you’ll stop at nothing to achieve it. The full moon in your sign on the thirteenth brings out your competitive best, and you’ll want to leave it all on the table. It’s all or nothing for you now, and you aren’t happy with anything but a top-notch personal performance. The intensity remains high as the autumn sun enters Scorpio’s driven sign on October 23, and for the next month, you’ll thrive under this combination’s determination. Choose a goal you can accomplish in the next 30 days and put all your attention toward it. The results should be amazing.
Cancer
Far-reaching and intense Pluto going direct in Capricorn on October 3 is a sign for you to get your act together, Cancer. You can’t put off what you’ve been avoiding any longer. Have some serious talks with yourself to get in touch with what’s really going on in your mind and heart. The Aries full moon on the thirteenth encourages bold, spontaneous action, and this isn’t the time to be shy. Have confidence that the moves you’re about to make are the right ones. You can deal with the consequences later. You can identify with the emotional energy of the sun entering fellow water sign Scorpio on October 23, especially when it comes to getting in touch with your intuitive side. If you have a certain feeling about something or someone, go with it. The sun-Uranus opposition on the twenty-eighth brings some unwanted stress in the form of change or unexpected events, but being nervous can lead to something good in the end. Although your initial thought is to fight against the current, giving in and going with the flow leads you places beyond your imagination.
Capricorn
Powerful Mars gains a little bit of tact from its pairing with gracious Libra on October 3, which benefits you in most areas of your life. It’s nice to win arguments using gentle reasoning rather than being looked at as “the bad guy” for using more forceful tactics. A sun-Saturn square on the seventh brings tests and challenges, but that’s how you grow, Capricorn. Looking back on your life, didn’t you feel best after you overcame major obstacles? Don’t let the restrictions you’re under now keep you down. You were born to rise above them! The Aries full moon on October 13 encourages you to act rather than sit back and watch something happen, which can help you make a lot of much-needed changes. Combined with your practical determination, this can be a very productive time. Focus on finishing current projects before starting new ones. You crave close companionship during the loving Venus-Saturn sextile on the twentieth, looking for a bigger commitment from a current lover or wanting to get closer to your crush. The key to this transit is being patient, though, because anything forced now most likely won’t have long-term potential.
Gemini
When your home planet Mercury leaves open-minded Sagittarius for more secretive Scorpio on October 3, you’ll want to uncover the truth—and then keep it to yourself! Avoid gathering information just to use against someone, Gemini. Getting even is never as fun as it sounds. When the emotional moon is full in competitive Aries on the thirteenth, your main objective might be to get ahead at all costs. Are you running toward a goal or away from something? Your motivations affect the outcome. There’s a bright Mercury-Saturn sextile on October 14 that improves clear thinking and organizational skills, and your increased concentration makes this the perfect time to do some tidying up. You probably won’t ever be the type who loves this kind of busywork, but the results speak for themselves. You have detailed, elaborate daydreams during the Venus-Neptune trine on the twenty-first, but getting them confused with reality can be extremely disappointing, There’s nothing wrong with knowing what you want as long as you have a concrete plan for how to get it. You’re more inhibited than usual during the Mars-Saturn square on October 27, which can cause problems in your work or love life. Since when are you afraid to stand up and pursue your goals, Gemini? Try to ignore criticism from authority figures if it isn’t constructive.
Leo
Pluto makes a big move into a direct position in steady Capricorn on October 3, giving you the chance to make a major transformation. If you’ve felt like you’ve been stuck these last couple of months, this regenerative energy should feel like a big weight has been lifted off you. A sun-Pluto square on the fourteenth increases your desire to be in control, but there are too many outside factors influencing the events in your life for that to happen. You won’t want to listen to authority figures, but guess what? Following orders from a boss or parent is just a part of life now. Things get intense when the sun enters focused Scorpio on October 23, especially for your close personal relationships. You might try to keep something a secret for the next month, but those closest to you can tell when something’s up. Don’t lie to the people who love and trust you. Frustration sets in during the Mars-Saturn square on the twenty-seventh, and you might take a defensive stand even when no one is accusing you of anything. Why are you so wary, Leo? Chances are good that the people in your life are only trying to help. Don’t shut them out.
Libra
Power player Mars enters your subtle sign on October 3, creating indecisive energy. Don’t spend too long weighing the pros and cons of an opportunity, Libra, or you might miss out on it altogether. Loving Venus enters intense Scorpio on the eighth, making you extremely determined when it comes to love and money. When you want something now, it’s difficult to stop you, so be sure you have clear-set goals before you start something that’s about to gain momentum. Unexpected news concerning your love life can be challenging to deal with during the Venus-Uranus opposition on October 12, especially if it comes from out of the blue. Is it possible you’ve been wrong about someone or something this whole time? Staying busy dealing with the drama of it all might help delay the pain. An uplifting Venus-Pluto sextile arrives on the twenty-fifth, giving you very strong persuasive skills. If you need to convince your boss you need a raise, or you want to win an argument against a friend or partner, you can do it now. Let your intuition guide you.
Pisces
Can Pluto going direct in determined Capricorn on October 3 finally help you get back on track? Yes and no, Pisces. Rely on yourself to get the job done instead of turning to anyone else. You can count on your inner strength now more than help from others. A positive trine between chatty Mercury and your home planet Neptune on the fifteenth nurtures your creative side and allows you to see the positive aspects of most situations. You’re quick to dream up best-case scenarios, which is great if you realize that things might not always turn out the way you envisioned. Your sense of charity and compassion is brought out by the Venus-Neptune trine on October 21, making this a great time to do something for someone else. If you’re already involved in a cause, contribute as much time and money as you can. If you don’t have a pet humanitarian project, find one! The powerful sun enters captivating Scorpio on the twenty-third, so a lot of people will be attracted to you and interested in being around you. This might take some getting used to, and you don’t have to accept every invitation that comes your way. Part of Scorpio’s allure is its mysterious persona, which you can happily adopt and use to your advantage for the coming month.
Sagittarius
When Pluto goes direct in practical Capricorn on October 3, you get a little bit of the power back that you might have felt you lost when the planet was retrograde. This powerful combination puts you back in the driver’s seat, especially if you aren’t afraid to dig deep and tackle some of your inner issues. When financially focused Venus shifts into secretive Scorpio on the eighth, you might not feel like divulging all of your money issues to the world—or even those closest to you. Which can cause problems if you share a bank account with someone. Remember there’s a difference between being cautious and being intentionally deceptive. The sun-Jupiter sextile on October 13 lightens things up a bit and brings good luck to most of your daily encounters. Positive thinking can help you turn things around, so try to look on the bright side as much as possible. The sun pairs up with Scorpio on the twenty-third to bring a month full of focused energy, so start planning projects that you really want to finish. There might be a lot of hard work involved, but it will be so worth it when you can look back on all you were able to accomplish.
Scorpio
When your co-ruler Pluto goes direct in ambitious Capricorn on October 3, your life can get back on track. Trust your gut feelings when it comes to making major decisions. You’re back in control and feeling confident! Mercury, the planet of communication, pairs up with your mysterious sign, also on the third, so you’ll love keeping someone guessing even more than normal. Your idea of fun is having someone ask you 20 questions and then maybe answering half of them. You’re a tough one to figure out, Scorpio (and that’s just the way you like it)! Mars, your other co-ruler, enters poised Libra, also on October 3, which might tame some of your aggression—in the best possible way. Being willing to reach a compromise with others doesn’t make you weak; it makes you more accommodating. And yes, there is a big difference. The Aries full moon arrives on the thirteenth, making you focused on winning. What’s the prize? You might not even care. If you’re first across the finish line, you’re happy. The sun partners with your magnetic sign on October 23, giving you a charming aura that people notice. Strangers might ask you what perfume you’re wearing or wonder if they know you from somewhere. “Perhaps from one of your better dreams,” should be your sassy reply!
Taurus
The energy is a bit uneven between powerful Mars and fair-minded Libra on October 3, but there’s also an upside to this duo. You get excellent results when you push your agenda forward using tact instead of force. Loving Venus enters intense Scorpio on the eighth, so love affairs become hot and steamy. You get jealous easily if you’re feeling insecure, but acting on negative emotions does more harm than good. An opposition between your ruler Venus and unpredictable Uranus on October 12 calls a lot of things into question, especially when the situation involves love and/or money. Sudden changes and surprises can be exciting, but the effect they’ll have on your future is hard to predict. The need to be wanted and/or needed increases during the Venus-Saturn sextile on the twentieth, but you aren’t interested in just anyone’s attention. You can tell the difference between when someone truly loves you and when they’re just pretending, and you aren’t interested in the latter. The pairing of the sun and passionate Scorpio on October 23 begins a month of intensity and truth-seeking. Trivial knowledge on any subject doesn’t interest you now. You want to get to the bottom of it, no matter what “it” is. Missing person cases are particularly intriguing.
Virgo
When communicative Mercury, your home planet, links up with secretive Scorpio on October 3, keeping things to yourself will be a more attractive option than blabbing your business to the world. It’s tempting to spill a juicy secret, but you’re more loyal than that. Romantic Venus enters passionate Scorpio on the eighth, giving your love life a boost. Trust and honesty are two of the most important things to you now, and they must be present before you’re intimate with anyone. A fabulous Mercury-Saturn sextile on October 14 gives you clear thinking, making this the perfect time to organize things, catch up on cleaning, or take care of projects you’ve been putting off. You can get your work done in half the time it would take you on other days. Don’t waste it! An inhibiting Mars-Saturn square on the twenty-seventh can bring rejection and setbacks when and where you least expect them. You might not be equipped to deal with certain bad news now, but you’ll find a way to get through it using your logical, practical ways. You usually do.

When you want something now, it’s difficult to stop you, so be sure you have clear-set goals before you start something that’s about to gain momentum. Unexpected news concerning your love life can be challenging to deal with during the Venus-Uranus opposition on October 12, especially if it comes from out of the blue. Is it possible you’ve been wrong about someone or something this whole time? Staying busy dealing with the drama of it all might help delay the pain. An uplifting Venus-Pluto sextile arrives on the twenty-fifth, giving you very strong persuasive skills. If you need to convince your boss you need a raise, or you want to win an argument against a friend or partner, you can do it now. Let your intuition guide you.
Pisces
Can Pluto going direct in determined Capricorn on October 3 finally help you get back on track? Yes and no, Pisces. Rely on yourself to get the job done instead of turning to anyone else. You can count on your inner strength now more than help from others. A positive trine between chatty Mercury and your home planet Neptune on the fifteenth nurtures your creative side and allows you to see the positive aspects of most situations. You’re quick to dream up best-case scenarios, which is great if you realize that things might not always turn out the way you envisioned. Your sense of charity and compassion is brought out by the Venus-Neptune trine on October 21, making this a great time to do something for someone else. If you’re already involved in a cause, contribute as much time and money as you can. If you don’t have a pet humanitarian project, find one! The powerful sun enters captivating Scorpio on the twenty-third, so a lot of people will be attracted to you and interested in being around you. This might take some getting used to, and you don’t have to accept every invitation that comes your way. Part of Scorpio’s allure is its mysterious persona, which you can happily adopt and use to your advantage for the coming month.
Sagittarius
When Pluto goes direct in practical Capricorn on October 3, you get a little bit of the power back that you might have felt you lost when the planet was retrograde. This powerful combination puts you back in the driver’s seat, especially if you aren’t afraid to dig deep and tackle some of your inner issues. When financially focused Venus shifts into secretive Scorpio on the eighth, you might not feel like divulging all of your money issues to the world—or even those closest to you. Which can cause problems if you share a bank account with someone. Remember there’s a difference between being cautious and being intentionally deceptive. The sun-Jupiter sextile on October 13 lightens things up a bit and brings good luck to most of your daily encounters. Positive thinking can help you turn things around, so try to look on the bright side as much as possible. The sun pairs up with Scorpio on the twenty-third to bring a month full of focused energy, so start planning projects that you really want to finish. There might be a lot of hard work involved, but it will be so worth it when you can look back on all you were able to accomplish.
Scorpio
When your co-ruler Pluto goes direct in ambitious Capricorn on October 3, your life can get back on track. Trust your gut feelings when it comes to making major decisions. You’re back in control and feeling confident! Mercury, the planet of communication, pairs up with your mysterious sign, also on the third, so you’ll love keeping someone guessing even more than normal. Your idea of fun is having someone ask you 20 questions and then maybe answering half of them. You’re a tough one to figure out, Scorpio (and that’s just the way you like it)! Mars, your other co-ruler, enters poised Libra, also on October 3, which might tame some of your aggression—in the best possible way. Being willing to reach a compromise with others doesn’t make you weak; it makes you more accommodating. And yes, there is a big difference. The Aries full moon arrives on the thirteenth, making you focused on winning. What’s the prize? You might not even care. If you’re first across the finish line, you’re happy. The sun partners with your magnetic sign on October 23, giving you a charming aura that people notice. Strangers might ask you what perfume you’re wearing or wonder if they know you from somewhere. “Perhaps from one of your better dreams,” should be your sassy reply!
Taurus
The energy is a bit uneven between powerful Mars and fair-minded Libra on October 3, but there’s also an upside to this duo. You get excellent results when you push your agenda forward using tact instead of force. Loving Venus enters intense Scorpio on the eighth, so love affairs become hot and steamy. You get jealous easily if you’re feeling insecure, but acting on negative emotions does more harm than good. An opposition between your ruler Venus and unpredictable Uranus on October 12 calls a lot of things into question, especially when the situation involves love and/or money. Sudden changes and surprises can be exciting, but the effect they’ll have on your future is hard to predict. The need to be wanted and/or needed increases during the Venus-Saturn sextile on the twentieth, but you aren’t interested in just anyone’s attention. You can tell the difference between when someone truly loves you and when they’re just pretending, and you aren’t interested in the latter. The pairing of the sun and passionate Scorpio on October 23 begins a month of intensity and truth-seeking. Trivial knowledge on any subject doesn’t interest you now. You want to get to the bottom of it, no matter what “it” is. Missing person cases are particularly intriguing.
Virgo
When communicative Mercury, your home planet, links up with secretive Scorpio on October 3, keeping things to yourself will be a more attractive option than blabbing your business to the world. It’s tempting to spill a juicy secret, but you’re more loyal than that. Romantic Venus enters passionate Scorpio on the eighth, giving your love life a boost. Trust and honesty are two of the most important things to you now, and they must be present before you’re intimate with anyone. A fabulous Mercury-Saturn sextile on October 14 gives you clear thinking, making this the perfect time to organize things, catch up on cleaning, or take care of projects you’ve been putting off. You can get your work done in half the time it would take you on other days. Don’t waste it! An inhibiting Mars-Saturn square on the twenty-seventh can bring rejection and setbacks when and where you least expect them. You might not be equipped to deal with certain bad news now, but you’ll find a way to get through it using your logical, practical ways. You usually do.
Horoscope on July 7, 2019
Aquarius
When introspective Pluto goes direct in driven Capricorn on October 3, you’re starting to think about getting your way again. Unlike your passive mood during the more contemplative retrograde period, you’re anxious to get back into a position of power and influence. A Mercury-Uranus opposition on the seventh increases the pace, and you might feel scattered and torn between the many things on your to-do list. Your nervousness can show itself in any number of odd ways, so try to be aware of the impression you’re making on the people you interact with. A similarly stressful opposition between Venus and Uranus on October 12 can cause increased tension in a romantic setting, especially when there are surprise announcements and unwelcome news. Being the recipient of a message you weren’t expecting could throw you off guard in a way that won’t be easy to recover from quickly. Hang in there, Aquarius. More frustration accompanies the Mars-Saturn square on the twenty-seventh, as you feel caught between what you want and what is keeping you from getting it. Limitations, rules, and obstacles all seem as though they’re working against you, but where there’s a will there’s a way. Find a way around those blockages instead of trying to go through them.
Aries
When powerful Pluto goes direct in Capricorn on October 3, it’s time to say goodbye to your weaknesses. It’s not always easy to let go of destructive behaviors, but right now you have the power to say no and mean it. Also on the third, powerful Mars, your ruler, enters gentle Libra, so you’ll lean toward solving problems with tact rather than force. This can be a gentle break for the people around you, Aries. When loving Venus enters intense Scorpio on October 8, nothing is trivial. You take nothing for granted and leave no stone unturned when searching for the truth. Love is your goal, and you’ll stop at nothing to achieve it. The full moon in your sign on the thirteenth brings out your competitive best, and you’ll want to leave it all on the table. It’s all or nothing for you now, and you aren’t happy with anything but a top-notch personal performance. The intensity remains high as the autumn sun enters Scorpio’s driven sign on October 23, and for the next month, you’ll thrive under this combination’s determination. Choose a goal you can accomplish in the next 30 days and put all your attention toward it. The results should be amazing.
Cancer
Far-reaching and intense Pluto going direct in Capricorn on October 3 is a sign for you to get your act together, Cancer. You can’t put off what you’ve been avoiding any longer. Have some serious talks with yourself to get in touch with what’s really going on in your mind and heart. The Aries full moon on the thirteenth encourages bold, spontaneous action, and this isn’t the time to be shy. Have confidence that the moves you’re about to make are the right ones. You can deal with the consequences later. You can identify with the emotional energy of the sun entering fellow water sign Scorpio on October 23, especially when it comes to getting in touch with your intuitive side. If you have a certain feeling about something or someone, go with it. The sun-Uranus opposition on the twenty-eighth brings some unwanted stress in the form of change or unexpected events, but being nervous can lead to something good in the end. Although your initial thought is to fight against the current, giving in and going with the flow leads you places beyond your imagination.
Capricorn
Powerful Mars gains a little bit of tact from its pairing with gracious Libra on October 3, which benefits you in most areas of your life. It’s nice to win arguments using gentle reasoning rather than being looked at as “the bad guy” for using more forceful tactics. A sun-Saturn square on the seventh brings tests and challenges, but that’s how you grow, Capricorn. Looking back on your life, didn’t you feel best after you overcame major obstacles? Don’t let the restrictions you’re under now keep you down. You were born to rise above them! The Aries full moon on October 13 encourages you to act rather than sit back and watch something happen, which can help you make a lot of much-needed changes. Combined with your practical determination, this can be a very productive time. Focus on finishing current projects before starting new ones. You crave close companionship during the loving Venus-Saturn sextile on the twentieth, looking for a bigger commitment from a current lover or wanting to get closer to your crush. The key to this transit is being patient, though, because anything forced now most likely won’t have long-term potential.
Gemini
When your home planet Mercury leaves open-minded Sagittarius for more secretive Scorpio on October 3, you’ll want to uncover the truth—and then keep it to yourself! Avoid gathering information just to use against someone, Gemini. Getting even is never as fun as it sounds. When the emotional moon is full in competitive Aries on the thirteenth, your main objective might be to get ahead at all costs. Are you running toward a goal or away from something? Your motivations affect the outcome. There’s a bright Mercury-Saturn sextile on October 14 that improves clear thinking and organizational skills, and your increased concentration makes this the perfect time to do some tidying up. You probably won’t ever be the type who loves this kind of busywork, but the results speak for themselves. You have detailed, elaborate daydreams during the Venus-Neptune trine on the twenty-first, but getting them confused with reality can be extremely disappointing, There’s nothing wrong with knowing what you want as long as you have a concrete plan for how to get it. You’re more inhibited than usual during the Mars-Saturn square on October 27, which can cause problems in your work or love life. Since when are you afraid to stand up and pursue your goals, Gemini? Try to ignore criticism from authority figures if it isn’t constructive.
Leo
Pluto makes a big move into a direct position in steady Capricorn on October 3, giving you the chance to make a major transformation. If you’ve felt like you’ve been stuck these last couple of months, this regenerative energy should feel like a big weight has been lifted off you. A sun-Pluto square on the fourteenth increases your desire to be in control, but there are too many outside factors influencing the events in your life for that to happen. You won’t want to listen to authority figures, but guess what? Following orders from a boss or parent is just a part of life now. Things get intense when the sun enters focused Scorpio on October 23, especially for your close personal relationships. You might try to keep something a secret for the next month, but those closest to you can tell when something’s up. Don’t lie to the people who love and trust you. Frustration sets in during the Mars-Saturn square on the twenty-seventh, and you might take a defensive stand even when no one is accusing you of anything. Why are you so wary, Leo? Chances are good that the people in your life are only trying to help. Don’t shut them out.
Libra
Power player Mars enters your subtle sign on October 3, creating indecisive energy. Don’t spend too long weighing the pros and cons of an opportunity, Libra, or you might miss out on it altogether. Loving Venus enters intense Scorpio on the eighth, making you extremely determined when it comes to love and money. When you want something now, it’s difficult to stop you, so be sure you have clear-set goals before you start something that’s about to gain momentum.
