In the second half of October, life starts getting way better for five zodiac signs. This year has been tumultuous, but finally the stars are aligned in our favor. What a relief!

According to astrologer Helena Hathor, these astrological signs are "about to reclaim their throne." That means we're done being passive and letting life drag us through the mud. We're figuring out what we truly want and going after it with everything we have. This attitude change makes all the difference.

Libra, the end of October is magnetic. Venus moves back into your sign on October 25 to finish out its retrograde. "This is gonna give you all the love and light and energy that you have been lacking," Hathor said. "[The] end of October puts the power back in your corner, and you're really able to lay down the law and attract the opportunities that you've been waiting for." 

In your career, you'll feel more in charge, and in your love life? Don't get me started. You won't just be feeling better financially. You're about to experience a new level of intimacy you never thought possible.

Leo, you're about to level up in a powerful way, and it's all thanks to a new relationship. According to Hathor, "This could be the partnership that you've been waiting for months for, and now it's finally arrived." If you've been hoping to hear a yes from a particular person, you won't have to wait much longer. 

That's because Pluto is now direct in Aquarius. "This is a time of transformation and change in your romantic life," astrologer Kate Rose explained. "Everything from who you’re attracted to to the kind of relationship you create will be up for debate." That may sound like a lot, but trust that it is for your benefit.
