October 2026
Reviewing and reconsidering your love life is a powerful theme this month with Venus and Mercury turning retrograde in Scorpio. This is the part of your chart that concerns things like intimacy, your partner’s money, investments, transformation, and the way you feel in and about your closest relationships. All of these things come more clearly into focus this retrograde season.
Mars transits your 5th house of love along with expansive Jupiter all month, so expect to spend more time with a partner and/or friends. This is a great month to socialize, Aries. Mars enters your 5th house every two years and Jupiter only every 12 years, so this is a unique opportunity for connecting with others.
Jupiter brings luck wherever it goes, so you have every opportunity to benefit through love connections and friends this month. If you are single, it’s time to mingle.
The Sun transits through Libra, which represents your 7th house of partners, until the 23rd. This is a pleasant and often loving transit. It's a sign your partner plays a significant role in your life this month, especially since the New Moon falls in Libra on the 10th, a very romantic energy.
When the Sun enters Scorpio on October 23, it joins Mercury and retrograde Venus in your 8th house. With three planets transiting there this month, you're about to focus a great deal on how your partner or love interest really makes you feel and if you can be your authentic self with them.
When Mercury retrogrades in your 8th house from October 23 to November 13, old friends and exes are likely to return or at least be on your mind more than usual.
Money is also a theme this month, especially if you share finances with someone, because the Full Moon falls in Taurus on the 25th. Don’t let finances upset an otherwise good relationship! This moon is good for delving into your emotional life and finally solving any unresolved issues with a partner that come up.
