Wednesday, OCTOBER 1

Mercury forms a square to Jupiter today, and we need room to explore and create, visualize new solutions to problems, and express ourselves freely.

However, we are inclined to exaggerate or miss the bigger point. We should be mindful of a strong tendency to overstate or overestimate in our pursuit of meaning. Mental anxiety could manifest as we can swing from blind faith to doubt, making it difficult to make good, practical choices.

We might also watch for scattering our energies or taking on too many activities at once–we could be looking so far ahead that we forget the important details or disclaimers. We might waste our time on inconsequential matters.

The Moon continues its transit of Capricorn until 3:52 PM EDT, when it moves into Aquarius.

The Moon is void from 11:34 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Saturn), until the Moon enters Aquarius at 3:52 PM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Thursday, OCTOBER 2

The Moon spends the day in Aquarius, drawing us to the unusual and unconventional. Independence, equality, and freedom are essential for emotional satisfaction with this position of the Moon. Its square with Mars this morning can trigger temperamentality, impatience, and distraction.

However, the Moon then harmonizes with the Libra Sun, and we find ourselves increasingly more even-tempered. We strive to be fair and honest, and we continually seek new and innovative ways to approach the world around us. Good energy is with us for a team effort.

Still, Venus and Pluto form a sesquiquadrate this afternoon, highlighting underlying tensions in our social interactions and relationships. Feelings of jealousy and possessiveness can be brewing just beneath the surface, and they are directly proportional to our fear of losing something or someone. Manipulation can color relationships, or financial tensions may emerge. It can also be a time to recognize our suppressed needs and desires.

As well, we benefit from a Neptune-Juno trine that first formed in February, connected again in April, and perfects today. This transit promotes understanding and intuiting one another’s needs, and we can bond through shared ideals and dreams. We can also feel empowered by our charitable acts.

Main Astrology Calendar

Friday, OCTOBER 3

With Mercury’s biquintile with Uranus this morning, we seek to stand out as different intellectually, or at least not sound like everyone else. We prefer not to follow the crowd with our ideas and communications. This aspect inspires creative ways to approach technical matters.

However, Mercury’s opposition to Chiron this afternoon is decidedly different energy. We may interpret feedback as criticism and should be cautious not to misrepresent ourselves. As we focus on the differences and weaknesses rather than the strong points, we may give too much weight to matters that don’t deserve attention. While we may doubt ourselves when solving problems or learning and expressing ourselves, a temporary dip might boost our drive to improve.

The Moon continues its transit of Aquarius much of the day, until 10:07 PM EDT, when it heads into Pisces. The Pisces Moon is gentle and kind, although sometimes distant or withdrawn. We’re processing and digesting recent events at this time of the lunar month.

The Moon is void from 2:15 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Mercury), until the Moon enters Pisces at 10:07 PM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Saturday, OCTOBER 4

Venus aligns with the Moon’s South Node today, and we might question whether some relationships (or elements of our relationships) are good for us. It’s possible that we’re enabling others or succumbing to our own indulgences.

We may be temperamental when it comes to our feelings and affections. It can be all too easy to fall back on behaviors and indulgences that keep us distant from our true feelings and needs.

Later today, Mercury forms a quincunx with Saturn, and mental anxiety can interfere with making good, practical choices.

There can be communication challenges or mental blocks. Doubts might slow down our movements and initiatives.

Still, however annoying, it can be a helpful process as we take a break from pushing ahead to check in with our objectives.

Main Astrology Calendar

Sunday, OCTOBER 5

The Moon spends the day in gracious, compassionate Pisces.

A Venus-Chiron biquintile early today suggests gaining a social advantage by being willing to grow, learn, and listen. We’re especially receptive to one another’s needs.

With the Sun’s contra-parallel to Venus, we’re more strongly aware of our relationships and the pride they give us. Any dissatisfaction we experience now can be due to inner discontent and yearning for more appreciation from others.

With a Uranus-Juno opposition, some relationships can feel restrictive or limiting to our sense of freedom, individuality, or independence.

However, a Pluto-Juno sextile not only facilitates but also ensures the successful sharing of power in our relationships, encouraging a feeling of reassurance and harmony. It fuels pleasant intensity, commitment, and passion.

The Moon is void from 8:30 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Saturn), until the Moon enters Aries tomorrow, Monday, October 6th, at 12:48 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Monday, OCTOBER 6

Mercury leaves Libra and enters Scorpio today, where it will transit until the 29th. Later, Mercury will return to Scorpio (from November 18-December 11) due to Mercury’s upcoming retrograde cycle (from November 9-29) that begins in Sagittarius and ends in Scorpio.

While Mercury is in Scorpio in the weeks ahead, we seek truths in all things hidden or undercover. It’s a time to probe, investigate, observe, and focus. Looking for motivations––the more deeply buried, the better––satisfies an intellectual need. We discard superficial methods of communication in favor of meaningful conversations.

The sign of Scorpio is exceptionally sharp, profound, and analytical. Thinking tends to be one-track-minded and perhaps obsessive during this cycle.

Today’s Mercury-Neptune quincunx, however, can challenge our confidence in decision-making. We might waver with uncertainty, or we’re inclined to daydream at the expense of productivity and clear communication. There can be some mental disorganization to manage now.

Tonight, a Full Moon occurs in the sign of Aries, and epiphanies can happen as our feelings come to full bloom.

This Full Moon reminds us to consider how we are honoring ourselves in the context of our close relationships. New revelations are likely, particularly about our leadership skills, feelings of independence, ability to initiate and begin new things, and close partnerships.

With the Moon full and bright in the sky, symbolic illumination occurs in our lives. But because these new feelings and revelations are emotional, we might want to exercise some care in expressing or acting on them.

The Moon continues its void period until it enters Aries today at 12:48 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

The Moon is Full in Aries on October 6, 2025, at 11:47 PM EDT.

Full Moon in Aries Chart: October 6th, 2025

A Full Moon, a time of intense emotional energy, occurs when the Sun in Libra forms an opposition to the Moon in Aries late at night on October 6th. This celestial event marks the culmination and the promise of fulfillment of what we started at the New Moon. It is a time of heightened emotions, romance, fertilization, and relationships.

The Aries-Libra polarity is a relationship axis, where Aries represents ‘self,’ and Libra represents ‘other.’ Aries is about self-assertion, while Libra is about the power of compromise. Understanding this balance can empower us in our relationships.

Through the energy of the Libra Sun, we are reminded of the importance of relationships and the effort required to maintain them–compromising, negotiating, graciousness, and balancing. The Aries Moon, on the other hand, is self-assertive, leading, and personally courageous.

This Full Moon urges us to strike a balance between meeting our personal needs and attending to the needs of a significant other–and between independence or autonomy and dependence or companionability.

The Libra Sun is diplomatic, equality-minded, and fair-minded. The Aries Moon, however, values authenticity over tact and is energized by independent efforts. The Full Moon illuminates this conflict.
Neglecting either end of the Aries-Libra axis will surely backfire on us. Ideally, we find a balance between the two energies, which the Full Moon invites us to do.

This Full Moon is about emotional declarations. Something has been building inside of us, likely of a personal nature, and now is the time when the energy of the cosmos fairly demands that we let it out. Over the upcoming weeks, we will discover what this declaration means for us. For now, we can’t sit on our feelings. We need to express them.

The Full Moon illuminates the conflict between “me” and “you,” and between autonomy and sharing. With the Moon full and bright in the sky, symbolic illumination occurs in our own lives.

However, these new feelings and revelations are emotional ones, as there is a sense of emotions bursting forth into our consciousness. It’s time to express ourselves and to let things out of our systems.

Of course, we might want to exercise some care while doing so, knowing that what is coming out of us is new and not particularly rational.

This lunation reminds us to consider how we are honoring ourselves in the context of our close relationships. New revelations can occur now, particularly in the areas of our physical bodies, leadership skills, our ability to initiate and begin new things, and our close partnerships. We’re brave, determined, and resourceful.

Full Moon in Aries Chart: October 6th, 2025 (Additional points)

This phase of the Moon occurs at 14 degrees and 8 minutes of Aries, affecting people born with personal planets and points at approximately 10 to 18 degrees of the Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn) most significantly.

Tuesday, OCTOBER 7

The Moon spends the day in the sign of Aries, a pioneering, action-oriented sign.

With Mercury’s quincunx to Uranus this morning, however, it can be challenging to gain others’ understanding. We should watch for poorly considered decisions, impulsive communications, and disorganization that can lead to misunderstandings. We may encounter a lack of receptiveness to practical advice.

Mercury also forms a square to Pluto today, stirring some suspicion. We can be determined to get our message across and have others agree with our ideas.

This transit may amplify our insecurities and fears of not receiving all the necessary information. It can also raise concerns that others don’t respect our views.

However, we should avoid forcing our opinions on others and instead strive for healthy skepticism rather than suspicion or paranoia.

Obsessive thinking is possible now, but with self-awareness and mindfulness, we might engage in in-depth, penetrating communication or harness this energy to think more deeply about a matter.

The Moon is void from 2:24 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Jupiter), until the Moon enters Taurus the next day, Wednesday, October 8th, at 1:13 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Wednesday, OCTOBER 8

The Moon enters Taurus early today, and earthy activities and sensual pleasures appeal now more than usual.

Venus forms a sextile with Jupiter today, and we’re exceptionally cooperative and ready to give one another the benefit of the doubt.

This influence cultivates a mood or atmosphere that promotes tolerance, consideration for others, warmth, and openness. We are more forthcoming, optimistic, and generous than usual.

This transit encourages us to loosen up as we tap into our spirit for enjoyment. It has a very positive influence, boosting cooperation, acceptance, inclusivity, and optimism, particularly in our relationships.

We are freer and more generous with our affection, time, and money. This is one of the more desirable transits for entertaining and socializing. We bring optimistic spiritual energy to our lives and seek a higher purpose or meaning through our connections and values.

Romantic opportunities can emerge, or there can be lucky finds, pleasing purchases, and a hopeful financial outlook or prospects.

Later today, a Sun-Uranus sesquiquadrate suggests we want to make a move, but we may not know where to begin or where to go with our intentions for now.

While unexpected changes in plans or events can test our patience, they may also lead to new approaches, resulting in useful, instructive, or interesting detours.

We can be reactive, particularly with the Moon’s opposition to Mars also in play, but centering ourselves can help us put more thought into our actions and communications.

The Moon continues its void period until the Moon enters Taurus today at 1:13 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Thursday, OCTOBER 9

The Moon spends the day in Taurus, and its harmony with Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn promotes a balanced approach to our pursuits. We are practical and realistic, and our judgment is exceptionally sound.

Still, there are a couple of picky aspects also in play today. With a Venus-Chiron quincunx, insecurity might make it awkward to express our affections naturally or flowingly. There may be temporary feelings of discontent.

With a Mars-Saturn sesquiquadrate, it’s best to slow down in the face of obstacles, as trying to move too fast can create more resistance. Since circumstances seem to block our efforts to assert ourselves, patience is necessary at this time.

The Moon is void from 8:31 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Saturn), until the Moon enters Gemini tomorrow, Friday, October 10th, at 1:12 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Friday, OCTOBER 10

The Moon leaves Taurus and enters Gemini early today, at 1:12 AM EDT. The Gemini Moon aligns with Uranus and harmonizes with Pluto, stirring our curiosity and pulling out our communicative nature. It’s a fine time to explore new topics and tackle a variety of tasks.

Mercury forms a creative biquintile to Neptune, highlighting our creative intelligence. We are idealistic, spiritually aware, and sensitive. We are more inclusive in our communications, preferring to avoid a me-focused approach and instead focus on our audience or commonalities.

It’s a good time to sense trends and interpret dreams, symbols, and hidden meanings.

The Moon continues its void period today until the Moon enters Gemini at 1:12 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Saturday, OCTOBER 11

Venus opposes Saturn this morning, and this opposition may bring some coolness to our interactions or lead to withdrawal. Negative feedback or blockage can slow us down–ideally, only enough to pace ourselves or adjust our expectations.

Financial limitations may become apparent, or the burdens of our debts or obligations to others may magnify or intensify.

We may need to pay the piper, or if we’ve been overdoing pleasures, a reminder of our responsibilities comes now.

Burdens, commitments, lack, limitations, and problems can loom larger than usual under the Venus-Saturn influence, particularly regarding love, tastes, pleasure, and finances.

The Gemini Moon’s square to Venus and Saturn later today echoes some of these themes, as we’re emotionally invested and might be hesitant about going deep with others.

Otherwise, the Gemini Moon is stimulating and encourages our reasonable and logical side.

The Moon is void from 10:56 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Venus), until the Moon enters Cancer tomorrow, Sunday, October 12th, at 2:37 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Sunday, OCTOBER 12

The Moon continues its transit of Gemini until 2:37 AM EDT, when it enters Cancer.

A Cancer Moon is sensitive, cautious, receptive, and protective. Home or family matters are in stronger focus than usual.

The Moon’s trine to Mercury this evening inclines us to make something of our feelings through conversation. While we seek familiar faces and places, we’re ready to learn, share, and exchange our ideas.

Later today, we head toward a Venus-Mars semi-square, however, which spotlights differences in our approaches, desires, and needs, resulting in strained relationship dynamics. It’s best to watch for stirring the pot, temperamentality, or impulsive moves.

The Moon continues its void period until it enters Cancer today at 2:37 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Monday, OCTOBER 13

The morning’s Venus-Mars semi-square energy is impatient, and it’s especially so with Venus transiting the last degree of a sign. We can be tempted to jump into or out of things impulsively. Venus enters Libra this afternoon, and it quite quickly opposes Neptune after moving into the sign.

Venus will transit Libra until November 6th, and it performs well in Libra, as Libra is its own sign. During this cycle, we’re not fond of out-and-out competition or aggressive pursuit, preferring win-win situations. We are quite willing to negotiate and compromise and can be very obliging with others. We’re also idealistic about love, and we seek intellectual peers. We prefer things to be done a particular way, and aggressive or uncouth behavior turns us off.

The shadow expression of this position includes over-dependence and superficiality. To avoid unpleasant situations, we could gloss over deeper issues in our relationships. It’s probably best to avoid the trap of acquiescing to partners while privately resenting the fact or thinking ourselves martyrs for doing so.

While Venus is in Libra, we are more artistically inclined or seek balance in our personal environment. This cycle promotes cooperation, harmony, mutually beneficial connections, and fairness. We’re more likely to prosper in partnership, through one-to-one associations, such as counseling, or in fields related to harmony, relationships, beauty, design, and the law. We attract things to us and appeal to others through gentleness and kindness.

The Venus-Neptune opposition can play with our expectations. We can feel exasperated or wistful, and problems can emerge if we’ve been indiscriminate with money, pleasures, and relationships.

Uncertainty in Venus-ruled areas of life (romance, social life, leisure, and finances) can be prominent. We need to assess the things that have become dysfunctional, and, in the process, we may need to give up on an unrealistic ideal to make gains. We are more emotionally vulnerable and more susceptible to both deceit and self-deception.

If possible, it may be best to delay significant decision-making regarding social, financial, and romantic involvements, as the details in these areas are unclear.

Pluto stations and turns direct today, and there can be inner rumblings as we sense something is coming. This happens after over five months of retrograde motion (Pluto turned retrograde on May 4th), and its station adds intensity to all we do and feel today and this week.

Over the coming weeks, our power to make profound changes in our lives is more externalized, insistent, and direct. We are less likely to brood over changes that we feel have been thrust upon us and more likely to take things into our own hands and make necessary changes. For now, we can sit on the fence.

Main Astrology Calendar

Pluto now turns direct at 1° Aquarius 22′, ending its retrograde.

Pluto is retrograde every year for approximately five months. In 2025, Pluto was retrograde from May 4th to October 13th.

Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius: May 4-October 13, 2025

• • Pluto stationed and turned retrograde on May 4, 2025, at 3° Aquarius 49′ Rx
  • Pluto stations and turns direct on October 13, 2025, at 1° Aquarius 22′

As Pluto advances in direct motion in the period ahead, our power to make profound changes in our lives is more externalized, insistent, and direct. We are less likely to brood over changes that we feel have been thrust upon us and more likely to take things into our own hands and make necessary changes.

Tuesday, OCTOBER 14

Venus forms a trine to Uranus this morning and a trine to Pluto this evening, and we enjoy tapping into our deeper ambitions and motivations. A special knowledge of and connection with our inner selves can boost our connections.

The Venus-Uranus trine this morning encourages our bolder, more innovative natures, particularly in social settings. We are especially interested in everything new, fresh, invigorating, unusual, and out-of-the-ordinary regarding romantic involvements, entertainment or pleasures, and financial undertakings.

We may be experimenting, improvising, and trying new ways of relating and expressing ourselves. It’s possible we discover alternative ways to make (or spend) money. Although we can be a little detached, we’re freer with our feelings and find beauty in the unfamiliar or uncommon. We can delight in approaching our relationships, special projects, and communications in new ways.

With the Venus-Pluto trine later today, we can feel pleasantly passionate and focused on a person, situation, connection, or project. The need to share or enjoy life on more profound levels is pleasantly intense.

This influence helps us connect with what we love and cherish. We might narrow our focus to our advantage. We seek to grow, improve, or develop our attachments.

Recognizing the value of patience, we become more strategic and are more likely to gain new insights into business and personal relationships.

Still, there are some minor challenging aspects to manage. With Mars in a minor square to Neptune, there can be some disorganization or a desire to act upon an unrealistic fantasy or unusual impulse. We should watch for passive-aggressive behavior.

As well, Mercury forms a minor challenging aspect to Saturn, and we should watch for hypersensitivity, negative thinking, and unhelpful criticism. However, this aspect has a somewhat beneficial influence on editing work, particularly in identifying flaws and fixing problems.

The Moon is void from 1:05 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Saturn), until the Moon enters Leo at 6:47 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Wednesday, OCTOBER 15

The Moon spends the day in the sign of Leo, encouraging our honorable, proud, and loving qualities. Channels for expressing personal emotional drama or creative potential might open up to us.

The Moon’s squares to Mercury and Mars in the first half of the day can leave us feeling wired or on edge. We process information very quickly today, and we’re impatient with situations or people who seem to be slowing us down. Temporarily, it can be challenging to express what we intend.

Main Astrology Calendar

Thursday, OCTOBER 16

The Moon continues its transit of Leo until 2:06 PM EDT, when it heads into Virgo. We can move from a playful to a workhorse frame of mind with this Moon sign change. The desire — or need — to tidy up our affairs is prominent. Being busy and making headway satisfies us more than usual.

The Virgo Moon can stir a craving for order and clarity. Emotional satisfaction comes from solving problems, creating order out of confusion, and helping others. Health matters might come into stronger focus.

Still, we head towards a Sun-Jupiter square and Mercury-Neptune sesquiquadrate, both exact early tomorrow, making it less than ideal for clear thinking and handling details later today.

We might avoid confrontation by attempting to sidestep issues or take an indirect approach. At the same time, we can find ourselves eager to expand, but while our plans and ideas are big, we’re reminded of the limits of our capabilities and must adjust accordingly.

Consider that there’s an inclination to extravagance and overreaching. While the Sun’s square to Jupiter can stimulate much optimism and elevated moods, our state of mind is fragile as things are overblown or unrealistic. We can feel some discontent, leading us to seek more meaning, growth, or change.

We should be cautious not to overreach in this quest, overestimating our energy levels or the time we might invest in a commitment. We would do well to remind ourselves that going bigger isn’t always in our best interests.

The Moon is void from 1:07 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to the Sun), until the Moon enters Virgo at 2:06 PM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Friday, OCTOBER 17

With today’s Sun-Chiron opposition, we might confront our insecurities and vulnerabilities through our relationships and interactions. Lack of faith in our own decisions is possible. The desire to learn and grow through experiences and others is strong, but it’s hampered by a lack of confidence or a fear of being different.

We may not be seeing eye to eye with others temporarily. We might also be so concerned with keeping others happy that we are afraid to assert our desires.

However, this is also a time to recognize something important about ourselves through our sensitivities and reactions.

As well, a Sun-Uranus biquintile encourages us to find channels for expressing our need for change and progress in unique ways.

The Virgo Moon’s sextile with Mercury tonight can also promote open communication. It’s an excellent time to gather information and do some research.

Main Astrology Calendar

Saturday, OCTOBER 18

Mars forms a trine to the Moon’s North Node today, and Mercury will do so early tomorrow. These transits move us to pursue our goals, participate, or make a special connection. We’re interested in taking on a challenge. We may be connecting with information or people/who encourage us to grow, improve, and move forward.

Today’s Virgo Moon, especially its opposition to Saturn this afternoon, reminds us of the practical details of our lives.

However, a Venus-Jupiter quintile inspires cooperation in situations that call for it. We give one another the benefit of the doubt. It can feel especially good to put our faith in someone or something now.

The Moon is void from 5:11 PM EDT, until the Moon enters Libra tomorrow, Sunday, October 19th, at 12:02 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Sunday, OCTOBER 19

The Moon enters Libra a couple of minutes into the day, and we’re seeking to balance our lives. This morning, with a Sun-Saturn quincunx, there can be a clash between our responsibilities and our desire to enjoy ourselves. Doubts or lack of faith can temporarily slow us down and hinder our movements and initiatives.

Even so, this can be a helpful process as we take a break from pushing ahead. We may now need to adjust our plans in light of new obligations or a reality check.

As the day advances, we head toward a Mercury-Mars alignment, as the planets will meet in the sign of Scorpio early in the day tomorrow. We can be mentally wired. We’re very interested in producing ideas and fixing problems.

The Mercury-Mars conjunction is a good influence for motivated, energetic work, particularly related to communication and the mind.

Since it occurs in Scorpio, power dynamics and sharing may be involved. Mercury-Mars excites and overstimulates our nerves. We want to get right to the point so that communications can be insensitive. There can be aggressive or excited thinking and communication, and we are more invested in our ideas and convictions than usual. Keeping busy and making headway satisfies us more than usual, and it’s best to channel excess mental energy constructively.

Tensions are possible, particularly when we become over-excited about an idea or resistant to letting others’ input in. There is an intensely competitive theme.

Note that these planets will meet again while retrograde and later, after Mercury turns direct. It’s best not to rush decisions now.

The Moon continues its void period until it enters Libra today at 12:02 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

Monday, OCTOBER 20

Mercury and Mars align very early today, and this morning, both bodies form quintiles to Pluto. We’re ready to challenge ourselves, and we tend to gravitate toward plans and strategies to get what we desire. It’s a good time to identify problems and make plans to fix them. We’re paying special attention to a particular project or idea and developing it more fully. We’re pleasantly dedicated or attentive now.

We’re also treating one another fairly and kindly today, taking pride in our relationships and support systems.

On this day before a New Moon, it may be best to wind down, reflect, muse, and tie up loose ends rather than push ahead with new beginnings. Ideally, we get a chance to recalibrate.

Main Astrology Calendar

Tuesday, OCTOBER 21

A New Moon occurs this morning, at 8:26 AM EDT, in the sign of Libra. Last year’s Libra Moon was a Solar Eclipse, but the Aries-Libra eclipse set is over. While today’s is a “regular” New Moon, it’s a powerful time to rebalance our relationships and recognize our partners as teammates rather than adversaries.

With this potent Libra energy, we have the chance to make valuable changes in our lives. We’re learning to make peace with others and establish a sense of order and balance in our lives.

Peace and harmony are the goals, but a delicate balancing act is involved along the way that requires some commitment and effort.

This New Moon brings fresh and creative energy into our lives, especially our relationships. It’s a cycle in which balancing our close personal relationships becomes an urgent desire.

Because this lunation is square Jupiter and Pluto, we should watch for exaggeration and excess. However, we do need a fresh start. Shooting too high or too far won’t help us achieve our goals sooner.

The Moon heads into Scorpio at 11:43 AM EDT. While we can be dealing with fears and resentments around the time the Moon forms a square with Pluto this afternoon, the Scorpio Moon is good for researching, investigating, and getting to the bottom of matters.

The Moon is void from 8:26 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to the Sun), until the Moon enters Scorpio at 11:43 AM EDT.

Main Astrology Calendar

The Moon is New in Libra on October 21, 2025, at 8:25 AM EDT.

New Moon in Libra on October 21st, 2025

This phase of the Moon occurs at 28 degrees and 22 minutes of Libra. It’s square Jupiter and it is the focal point of a yod with Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus.

The New Moon in the sign of Libra starts a good cycle in which to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Scales.

We have a chance to build our negotiating skills without compromising our principles or needs and without resorting to appeasement. It’s a time to work on re-balancing our relationships and to recognize our partners as teammates, promoting a sense of connection and cooperation rather than seeing them as adversaries.

With this potent Libra energy, we can make important life changes. Libra teaches us to make peace with those around us and establish more harmony in our environments, create a sense of order and balance in our lives, and recognize the value of partnerships. This is an ideal time to work on these skills.

Libra has an innate ability for–and love of–synthesizing opposites. Peace and harmony are the goals, but there’s a fine balancing act involved along the way that requires some commitment and effort.

This New Moon brings fresh and creative energy into our lives, especially our relationships. This is a cycle in which balancing our close personal relationships becomes an urgent desire. Negotiations may be especially effective, as we are inclined to assert our needs in ways that don’t offend others. Because this lunation is square Jupiter and Pluto, we should watch for exaggeration and excess. However, we do need a fresh start. Shooting too high or too far won’t help us achieve our goals sooner.

Wednesday, OCTOBER 22

Neptune, still retrograde, leaves Aries and returns to the sign of Pisces today for its final visit before moving on for good. Neptune will finish up its transit of Pisces by January 26th, 2026.

Neptune turned retrograde while still in the sign of Aries on July 4th, 2025. On December 10th, Neptune will end its retrograde and turn direct.

Tonight, the Sun enters Scorpio, but just before it leaves the sign of Libra, it forms a quincunx with Neptune. We may feel a bit off in terms of vitality and more sensitive to stimulants or emotional issues that are difficult to pinpoint.

A lack of clarity about our goals or identity can lead to feeling under the weather. Events or circumstances can leave us feeling that we must choose between being realistic and determined or intuitive and receptive.

We can feel torn between two drives and see-saw between alternatives. Concentrating or figuring out our next step can be difficult.

These things are more likely if we’ve neglected our spiritual needs, and it makes sense to slow down and adjust. Incorporating and recognizing the need for more imagination in our lives seems necessary now, prompting us to be more introspective and thoughtful.

The Sun transits Scorpio from tonight until November 21st. Scorpio is a sign of depth, intimacy, and extremes of feeling, and with the Sun in the sign, superficiality or mediocrity will not do!

In the weeks ahead, we’re more likely to prosper through strategy and knowing the value of keeping some things to ourselves at the correct times. Efforts to repurpose, recycle, salvage, and transform can be successful. We’re adept at organizing, researching, investigating, and analyzing. We gravitate to challenges and feel compelled to heal, fix, and direct or manage.

Main Astrology Calendar

Thursday, OCTOBER 23

The Moon spends the day in Scorpio, and this morning, aligns with Mars and Mercury. We bring more feeling or passion to our communications and mental pursuits.

With today’s Sun-Uranus quincunx, we could be dealing with minor disruptions of plans or a restless urge for change that interferes with the flow. Instead, a fear of change can stop us in our tracks temporarily, but we may get the chance to make refinements and recalibrate.

Jupiter forms a square to Chiron today, and it’s the first in a set of three in an approximately nine-month period while Jupiter is in Cancer and early Leo.

During the period influenced by this outer-planet transit with its longer-term effects, we may find ourselves yearning for meaning and understanding; yet, it’s a daunting task to align with a personal philosophy or belief system that authentically reflects our core. Beliefs and ideas might lead us astray, or we could be confronted with a crisis of faith.

It’s not uncommon for something to occur that challenges our fundamental beliefs, leaving us in a state of disarray or confusion. We could feel isolated in our opinions or plans, as others may not understand our vision. Past decisions that once seemed wise may now appear questionable, or we might encounter a person or obstacle that disrupts our lives. Still, these experiences ultimately serve as important lessons in self-belief and understanding our purpose.

It’s best to look within ourselves to gain a deeper understanding of our true needs and beliefs during this period. Mindlessly following something that doesn’t serve our purpose can lead us astray. Before embarking on new business endeavors, it’s better to pause and reflect.

This is a time for reorganizing and reassessing our goals, beliefs, path, and personal philosophy, while being mindful of overdoing and overcompensating.

Main Astrology Calendar

Jupiter square Chiron.

Jupiter at 24° Cancer 35’  forms a square to Chiron at 24° Aries 35′ on October 23rd, 2025. This is the first in a set of three such aspects in an approximately nine-month period while Jupiter is in Cancer and early Leo.

During the period influenced by this outer-planet transit with longer-term influence, we can find ourselves yearning for meaning and understanding, yet it’s a daunting task to align with a personal philosophy or belief system that authentically mirrors our core. Beliefs and ideas might lead us astray, or we could be confronted with a crisis of faith. It’s not uncommon for something to occur that challenges our fundamental beliefs, leaving us in a state of disarray or confusion.

There may be instances where we feel isolated in our opinions, visions, or future plans, as others may not understand our vision. Past decisions that once seemed wise may now appear questionable. We might encounter a person or obstacle that disrupts our lives, but these experiences ultimately serve as crucial lessons in self-belief and understanding our purpose.

It is of utmost importance to look within ourselves to gain a deeper understanding of our true needs and beliefs during this period. Mindlessly following something that doesn’t serve our purpose can lead us astray. Before embarking on new business endeavors, it’s crucial to pause and reflect. This is a time for reorganizing and reassessing our goals, beliefs, path, and personal philosophy. It’s best to watch for overdoing and overcompensating.

Jupiter square Chiron

Friday, OCTOBER 24

The Moon leaves Scorpio very early today, entering Sagittarius. The Sun forms a square to Pluto this morning, and there can be some mistrust or heaviness in the air.

Temporarily, our personal goals may feel at odds with our interpersonal needs. Events occurring now tend to highlight problems with trust–it’s not easy to put our faith in others (or in life/the process).

We may aim to discover our inner power, which comes from a strong sense of self, rather than superficial energy derived from manipulating people into doing what we want them to do.

This transit can help us identify areas of over-attachment, but we may find it difficult to let go and unwind. It’s best to aim for self-control now.

This energy is complicated by a Mercury-Chiron quincunx, as there’s a chance of interpreting feedback as criticism.

However, Mercury forms a trine with Jupiter late in the morning, helping to boost our confidence and faith. Through conversations or musings, a positive outlook or hopefulness can emerge. We have more trust in the future, we seek a little extra meaning in our projects and experiences, and we can benefit from big-picture thinking.

Our ideas are grand, our intentions noble, and we are more interested in learning and sharing the truth. We might receive good news or offers now. Connecting with others comes more easily, and we follow our curiosity.

It’s a time of good feedback, interesting questions, important debates, inspiring messages, expanding theories, and news of justice or legal outcomes.

As such, as the day advances, we find it easier to tune into the Sagittarius Moon energy, requiring less prompting than usual to get moving and to experience life.

The Moon is void from 12:15 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Neptune), until the Moon enters Sagittarius at 12:20 AM EDT.

The Sun forms a biquintile with Saturn early today, and Mercury forms a trine with Saturn this afternoon, and we benefit from a practical focus. It’s a good time for sorting, categorizing, and creating order out of chaos. We’re motivated to solve problems.

The Mercury-Saturn transit is grounding on a mental level. It helps us prioritize or center our thoughts and communications. Conversations may be spare but instructive. It’s a fine time for systematic thinking and a step-by-step approach to tasks and problems.

This transit supports work with details. We’re cautious with our expectations, and we remind ourselves to keep things moderate.

Sunday, OCTOBER 26

With a Venus-Uranus sesquiquadrate very early today, we can feel discontent with our current pleasures or pastimes. It’s best to tame restlessness or avoid abrupt moves while considering our needs for change and growth.

The Moon continues its transit of spirited Sagittarius until 12:54 PM EDT, although its squares to Saturn and Neptune indicate some resistance to wholeheartedly embracing our explorations.

The Moon in Capricorn from 12:54 PM forward is earthy, practical, and wise. This Moon inspires a more orderly approach to our world as the day advances.

The Moon’s sextile to the Sun this evening can help us find satisfying and beneficial channels for self-expression and release of emotions.

The Moon is void today from 12:42 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Neptune), until the Moon enters Capricorn at 12:54 PM EDT.

Monday, OCTOBER 27

Mars forms a quincunx with Chiron midday, and we may doubt the effectiveness of our assertions or efforts to pursue what we want, potentially leading to passive-aggressive behavior, defensiveness, or frustration. We can find it challenging to be both assertive and sensitive now, seeing-sawing between the two.

It can also be difficult to assert ourselves without provoking, annoying, or concerning others. The trick is to find ways to combine both sensitivity and directness instead of narrowing our choices to either/or.

However, as the day progresses, the influence of a Mars-Jupiter trine comes into stronger play, and our confidence, faith, and enthusiasm soar. Our desire for freedom may be equally strong. We are more decisive and enterprising under this transit.

It’s a great time to think up an exciting new plan or challenge. Something moves us to take action to better our lives. We possess the willpower, vigor, and energy necessary to achieve our goals. Positive attitudes and expectations seem to create winning situations, and we can enjoy friendly competition now.

Tuesday, OCTOBER 28

Mars perfects its trine with Jupiter very early today, boosting our desire to take action and make improvements.

However, the day is strongly influenced by an impending Mercury-Neptune trine, exact early tomorrow. Especially as the day advances, this transit inspires us to present our ideas and information in creative ways.

We’re more curious about mysteries and illusions, and we’re better at seeing potentials and possibilities. With this transit, we readily tune into and respond to our hunches. It encourages us to tap into our imagination. We may easily sense others’ thoughts and feelings, and our words, musings, and ideas can be more imaginative and colorful, subtle, or creative. We experience a sense of knowing and understanding with minimal explanation or instruction.

While we may not be direct or definite under this influence, we see the way around obstacles. This transit favors photography, the arts, poetry, fiction, spirituality, advertising, and promotion. It occurs near the very end of the signs, pointing to some powerful discoveries and understanding.

The Moon spends most of the day in Capricorn, however, helping ground us. It heads into Aquarius at 11:55 PM EDT.

The Moon is void from 11:38 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Neptune), until the Moon enters Aquarius at 11:55 PM EDT.

Wednesday, OCTOBER 29

Mercury forms a trine to Neptune early today in the final degree of Scorpio and Pisces, respectively. However, Mercury enters Sagittarius today, and then it opposes Uranus. Life can feel a bit chaotic with different views of a situation and contrary opinions standing out. Our understanding of a matter does a one-eighty.

The Mercury-Uranus opposition can produce mental tension, miscommunication, changes of mind or plans, and resistance to ideas. These, however, can lead to new insights if we’re open to them. We can be confrontational or controversial. As such, it may not be the best time to present an argument or an important idea, but friction can challenge us to learn more about our own minds and opinions. Epiphanies and unusual insights can occur now, or surprising news might arrive that turns our perception of a situation on its head.

Mercury will transit Sagittarius for a longer time than usual and in two steps due to Mercury’s upcoming retrograde cycle (from November 9th to the 29th). The first step is from today until November 18th, and the second step will happen from December 11th, 2025, until January 1st, 2026.

In between these dates, Mercury will return to the sign of Scorpio while retrograde, turn direct, and then finish its transit of the sign.

Mercury in Sagittarius is curious, questioning, and brave with thoughts and ideas. Our thinking is optimistic, and our faith increases. However, we are not always very precise or detail-oriented during this cycle.

While Mercury changing signs and opposing Uranus can produce some tension, particularly on mental levels, today’s Mars-Saturn trine is stabilizing. With this influence, we value endurance and perseverance. Carefully picking and choosing our activities comes naturally now. Still, we feel more productive, directed, and purposeful.

A slow, steady, methodical approach works best under this influence. If we can tune out the distractions, we get the job done, and we’re thorough! This trine favors discipline, moderation, tradition, pacing ourselves, temperance, and realism.
