Both patience and decisiveness are necessary in love.
By Kate Rose — Written on Oct 21, 2022
This week brings a mix of energies and changes as the New Moon Solar Eclipse occurs along with Mars turning retrograde in Gemini.
Together it is as if some things are rushing ahead faster than you can wrap your head around while other situations are asking you to practice patience while they come to divine fruition.
The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Scorpio brings action, decisions, and greater passion and connection into your romantic life while Mars retrograde is slowing you down just a bit to make sure that it is done right.
This week kicks off the two-week window between eclipses that is known as a wild card window bringing all sorts of unforeseen fated events your way.
Depending on whether you see a speeding up or slowing down just depends on where you are in your relationship at this moment and if you’ve either been dragging your heels or rushing ahead over critical issues.
The universe always delivers exactly what it is that you need.
Moreso than most weeks this will be felt as Jupiter, the planet of abundance and good luck, turns back into Pisces as part of its retrograde bringing opportunities and positive developments in all of your romantic endeavors.
It is a time to trust yourself, tune into the natural flow of love this week, and remember that romance is always a dance of both patience and decisiveness.
Remember these important dates for your weekly love horoscope starting October 24, 2022:
Monday, October 24th
Chiron in Aries harmoniously connects with the North Node in Taurus today giving you a chance to do some deeper healing which will help you create more of what you want in your romantic life.
With the North Node being activated during the next two weeks because of the eclipses, this is a powerful portal that demonstrates how what you want in love changes the more you heal and grow.
Tuesday, October 25th
Eclipse Season is now underway as today marks the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Scorpio. This lunar event will bring about changes within your romantic life by creating sudden moments and shifts which seemingly happen overnight.
It is part of the two-week wild card window between eclipses, but it also ties back to Eclipse Season in April of last year indicating that whatever has been simmering on the back burner since then is about to finally boil over.
Scorpio is an intense sign representing a period of rebirth as it passionately rises from the ashes helping you do the same in your romantic life.
Friday, October 28th
Jupiter, the planet of abundance, re-enters Pisces as part of its retrograde today giving everything a more spiritual and hopeful aura.
Jupiter makes everything that it touches bigger and as it moves into the sign of unconditional love, it is about to do the same to your deep romantic feelings as well. Along with the influx of Scorpio energy around this time, it marks a period of intensity and connection in your relationship.
Saturday, October 29th
Mercury, the master of the mind, shifts into Scorpio today intensifying conversations and helping to talk about what really matters. Mercury governs how you think and also the decisions and choices that you make. While it is in Scorpio not only will your conversations be deeper, but you also will have the ability to explore taboo topics and get to a greater truth with your partner which will intensify and change your connection.
Sunday, October 30th
Mars is the planet of action and ambition, in Gemini though it is being asked to consider all options and to take greater action towards what it desires. However, today it turns retrograde, not to disrupt your plans but to give you more time to create what it is that you want.
As much as the eclipses will speed things up, this transit will make sure that you are considering all options before actually moving forward with any one decision. This retrograde period will last until December 31st, 202 before shifting direct and spending another three months in Gemini giving you plenty of time to make all your romantic ambitions a reality.
Each zodiac sign's weekly love horoscope for October 24 – October 30, 2022:
Aries
(March 21 - April 19)
The best day for love: Tuesday, October 25th
Now that the focus is Scorpio energy and not Libra it brings the focus to intimacy, passion, and change within your life. This allows you to understand more clearly what has the ability to change and what does not.
By seeing this clarity, you can focus more on what will actually give you results which means that it is also time to make some big decisions about your relationship because if that intimate connection is not there, then it may be time to just move on.
Taurus
(April 20 - May 20)
The best day for love: Tuesday, October 25th
The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Scorpio lights up your romantic relationship with some new opportunities and growth for you. Because this is a solar eclipse it is likely that this will mean sudden turnarounds in your commitment status, moving in or even a new partner coming in.
During this time, you will be better able to embrace your own desires and truth about this part of your life which enables you to take the steps to actually create it.
Gemini
(May 21 - June 20)
The best day for love: Friday, October 28th
Today the Moon is in Sagittarius which gives you the ability to be more in touch with your emotional feelings regarding everything that has transpired recently.
Mars in Gemini has really been giving you time to evaluate what it is you genuinely want and what motivates you to make those changes in your life. But today it is time to slow down and step all the way into your feelings, that way you don’t miss something that is important.
Cancer
(June 21 - July 22)
The best day for love: Thursday, October 27th

Leo
(July 23 - August 22)
The best day for love: Tuesday, October 25th
The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Scorpio shines a bright light of truth into your home environment. It feels like you have been thinking about moving for some time but have not yet made the commitment to make that decision.
This energy that is coming in will be about you trusting what direction your heart is leading you in, whether it is moving in with someone or moving somewhere you feel more aligned with. If love feels like it has been challenging or nonexistent lately, it may mean that the love you are dreaming of will only be found once you decide to move to somewhere new.

The best day for love: Friday, October 28th
Jupiter is the planet of abundance and good luck, as it moves back into Pisces this week as part of its retrograde it is going to give you some new perspectives. The thing with love is that sometimes you do need to go through the harder moments to be able to fully embrace the amazing ones.
It does not mean that love is supposed to be challenging but that the purpose is to learn from these moments so that you can finally learn. This week gives you that opportunity that will ultimately bring positive changes to your relationship.
Libra
(September 23 - October 22)
The best day for love: Monday, October 24th
