Welcome to October, Sagittarius. This month brings a chance to say goodbye to a chapter in your life, plus romantic blessings from Venus. There was an eclipse in September, which could have led to fights with roommates or anyone who feels like home. There's another eclipse this month, in Libra, going down on Wednesday, October 2. While last month's eclipse was lunar, meaning that it coincided with the full moon phase and could have led to endings, this one is a solar eclipse, which occurs during the new moon and is associated with beginnings. Because it occurs in your 11th House of Friendship, be on the lookout for who you connect with around this date. Work friends or casual acquaintances could become your next bestie. However, because eclipses are so intense, this could also lead to fights with current friends. Make sure to stay well-rested to help avoid drama.
Your ruling planet, expansive Jupiter, goes retrograde in your romantic 7th House starting on Wednesday, October 9, in a backward dance that will last until February. During this time, you find yourself reconsidering your approach to romantic love. If you've taken a step back from the whole concept, you may feel called to start dating again. Conversely, if you're happily partnered, it would be beneficial to check in with yourself to make sure that you're showing up for your partner. You don't mean to, but sometimes, Sagittariuses can get so wrapped up in work and creative hobbies that they neglect their personal life.
Shortly after Jupiter goes retrograde, the transformative planet Pluto goes direct in your abundant 2nd House of Possessions on Friday, October 11. While we really can't promise anything in this job market, Pluto direct in your 2nd House could see a professional or cash flow situation smoothing out. However, this transit is important for other reasons. Pluto first moved into Capricorn back in 2008 and then moved into Aquarius earlier this year, where it will return to in November and stay until 2043. Its brief reentry into Capricorn, which began last month, offers a chance to say goodbye to that chapter and tie up any loose ends. Did anything major happen to you in 2008? That period is now coming to a close, and something new is taking its place.
Then, on Sunday, October 13, the divine messenger Mercury moves into your heady 12th House. This heightens your psychic abilities, Sag. Try to get some quiet time today to tap into your intuition, whether you do so by working with ancestors, reading tarot, or meditating. You should also pay attention to your dreams. Keep a dream journal by your bed so you can jot down what you remember right when you make up.
A very romantic and perhaps orgasmic day arrives on Thursday, October 17.
A very romantic and perhaps orgasmic day arrives on Thursday, October 17. First, sweet Venus, the sign of love, moves into your sign. This transit makes you incredibly magnetic. If you're on dating apps, it's a great day for swiping. Thursday, October 17, also marks a full moon in Aries and your 5th House of Pleasure. Full moons are very primal times. If you're dating someone, this could indicate super hot sex. However, while not as intense as an eclipse, full moons can also lead to drama. If you want to avoid that (or are single and still want to take advantage of the sexual energy) check out some of our favorite places to shop for sex toys.
The sun moves into Scorpio, kicking off spooky Scorpio season on Tuesday, October 22. It's almost Halloween! Browse our list of costume ideas for inspo. Your fire energy is always a hit at costume parties, so your social calendar will likely get quite full over the next few weeks. The sun is in your psychic 12th House during this time, which continues to bring psychic messages your way but can also be draining. Make sure to schedule in sleep in addition to all those parties to avoid burnout. Have fun, Sag, and we'll see you in November.
