When loving Venus reverses into a retrograde cycle on October 5, you could take it especially hard, Pisces. The last thing you usually want to do is face the cold, hard reality of any given situation, but try to look at this downturn as a chance for growth. A sun-Pluto square on the twelfth could bring crisis and drama, causing you to do something extremely out of character. If acting calmly isn’t an option, reach out to someone close to you. They’ll know how to help. A Mercury-Neptune trine on October 19 stimulates your sense of creativity and opens some interesting doors. Sometimes you feel you’re happiest when the lines between reality and fantasy are blurred. The sun moves into kindred water sign Scorpio on the twenty-third, intensifying your emotional experiences. You aren’t interested in spending time with anyone who isn’t willing to be 100 percent real with you. Honesty is everything. A Venus-Uranus opposition on October 31 signals a change in your love life, and not necessarily for the better. Freedom is the theme of this transit, but the rules are up to you. Just make sure everyone who’s playing along knows what they are.

Your home planet of dreamy Neptune is retrograde all month, which could seriously cut into your beloved daydream time. It’s impossible to ignore reality when the sun opposes Neptune retrograde on September 7, so why not just embrace it? The ninth brings a new moon in detail-oriented Virgo, which should allow you to complete a project that’s been on the back burner for a while. Virgo likes to tend to the details, so cutting corners won’t be an option. But if you stay focused on the things that matter most, you should be able to meet the deadline AND turn in a near-perfect product. Mercury opposing Neptune retrograde on the thirteenth calls everything into question and threatens to undo all the hard work you’ve put in over the last month. Self-doubt can be a real bummer, Pisces, especially when you aren’t sure who you can trust to tell you the truth. If someone’s news seems too good to be true, it probably is. A bright spot in the month is when the sun enters Libra on September 22 and life becomes a little more peaceful. The darker moments are still there, but choosing to look at the light makes you so much happier.

Neptune, your guiding planet, is retrograde all month, asking you to be receptive to the truth. A sun-Jupiter square on August 6 brings a mix of positive and negative, especially concerning your self-confidence. Easy success can lead to a false belief that everything following it will come effortlessly, too. In fact, it’s the opposite – you’ll have to work harder to prove you deserve it. The sun-Mercury conjunction on the eighth shines a light on communication issues, but because Mercury is retrograde, things may not go as planned. Mix-ups and misunderstandings are the norm, and it’s hard to stay rational amid the chaos. Letting your emotions get the best of you won’t help matters, so focus on what you can control instead of what you can’t. A Jupiter-Neptune retrograde trine on August 19 encourages outreach and asks you to somehow better the world. This is a perfect time to dream up ideas to help the planet when the time is right. A Venus-Pluto retrograde square on the twenty-sixth plays on your insecurities and makes you wonder about people’s true motivations. You’re worth every bit of positive attention you get, Pisces. Don’t ever doubt that.

Your home planet of dreamy Neptune is in a trine with the flashy sun on July 8, giving you a self-promoting vibe. What talents are you keeping to yourself that you should be showing off to the world? If you’re an artistic or creative type, put yourself out there and see what happens. Loving Venus enters strict Virgo on the ninth, so your love life may feel more practical and service-oriented than normal. Is running someone’s errands for them showing any less love than giving them a big bouquet of flowers that you picked yourself? Romance is still alive. It’s just being dished out in a slightly different way. You’re more outgoing than usual when the sun enters Leo on July 22, which can benefit all areas of your life. You’re usually content to follow the leader, but not now! When the teacher calls for volunteers to lead the group, your hand is the first one raised. It’s about time you let your amazing ideas be heard, Pisces! When the moon is in your caring sign on the thirtieth and thirty-first, you truly try to put yourself in other people’s shoes. You may not know exactly what they’re going through, but you’re willing to help them in any way you can.
