You’re feeling grateful, Gemini! Libra season helps reconnect you with the present moment and reminds you to celebrate all the joy that already exists in your life. Maybe you’re spending more time doing hobbies that light you up or connecting with friends that make you feel seen. This is a potent time for self-expression and gaining attention for your gifts and talents. If you’re single, you may feel called to update your dating profile and put yourself back out there. Couples are focusing on exploring some of their fantasies and reigniting the spark that brought them together.

This month begins with a New Moon solar eclipse in Libra on October 2 that could mark the end or beginning of a new creative project. Maybe you’re ready to commit to writing a novel! This can also bring new romantic prospects or lucky news. There’s a sense of flow and stability in your everyday life on October 8 when Venus in Scorpio connects with Mars in Cancer. Maybe you receive some financial news that helps you feel more grounded or a helping hand when you need it most. Today, you’re noticing all the small things your partner and loved ones do for you and feeling grateful.

Jupiter, the planet of expansion and growth, goes retrograde in your sign on October 9. Over the next few months, you could experience a mini identity crisis! Your personal goals, ambitions, or personal relationships are all up for review. This is a longer period of reflection about who and what you want to prioritize in your life. Make sure you’re following your heart in the most authentic way possible. Mercury, the planet of communication, enters Scorpio on October 13 and your daily routine picks up. If others are trying to add responsibilities to your plate, now is the time to protect your free time and set boundaries. You’re already juggling enough as it is! This is also a productive time to rework your habits and kick old patterns that no longer serve you.

You’re feeling some financial pressure when the Sun in Libra slams into Mars in Cancer on October 14. Maybe part of you wants to splurge and treat yourself, while the other part of you knows that this isn’t the best time to swipe your credit card freely. You can also wind up in arguments about your personal values, especially in your friendships, romantic relationships, or in creative partnerships. You have a lot of momentum and creative inspiration today. On the same day, Venus in Scorpio locks eyes with Uranus in Taurus, changing up your daily routine. Don’t hold yourself to a plan today because unexpected commitments may arise when you least expect it. You may want to sidestep some of your responsibilities and let just have fun!

The Full Moon in Aries on October 17 makes one of your wishes come true! You could learn exciting news or attend a big celebration. There’s also drama brewing in your social circle or romantic relationships. This can be a make-it-or-break-it moment! On the same day, Venus, the planet of connection, enters Sagittarius, bringing luck to your partnerships. You’re ready to discuss the future with lovers or you’re feeling like you and an important person in your life are in sync. Today can bring more work opportunities your way because people are eager to collaborate with you!

You’re confronting hidden feelings of jealousy and envy when the Sun in Libra rams into Pluto in Capricorn on October 22. Hidden power dynamics are revealed and you may need to call out some people or disrupt toxic patterns in your life. Wearing your heart on your sleeve can set you free. This is an important day to speak your truth. Making space to feel your emotions can yield creative inspiration.

Later in the day, the Sun enters Scorpio, and you may be taking on more responsibility. Maybe you’re accepting a promotion or taking on a project that requires more daily effort. You might feel like you’re under more pressure, but you know that, ultimately, you’ll reach your goal and it will be more than worth it. You might feel distance from a lover or someone important in your life when Venus in Sagittarius bumps into Saturn in Pisces on October 28. Feelings of disappointment and isolation can come up in your closest connections. Maybe someone lets you down when you really were hoping to lean on them for support. This isn’t the best day to profess your undying love for someone!

A few days later, more jarring news arrives when Mercury in Scorpio stares down Uranus in Taurus on October 30. An ongoing obligation may suddenly end, or maybe you experience a breakthrough regarding your own subconscious patterns. The month ends with Mercury in Scorpio gently connecting with Neptune in Pisces on October 31. Your ability to problem solve, your creativity, and intuition are all standing out in your work today. You could receive lucky news, make amends with others, or simply feel proud of yourself for all of your accomplishments. Happy Halloween!
