October 2: New Moon Annular Solar Eclipse in Libra

The New Moon Annular Solar Eclipse in Libra on October 2nd is here to shake sh*t up. This eclipse in Libra is asking the collective to recalibrate your relationships and find harmony where things may have been out of balance. If you’ve been clinging to old dynamics that no longer serve you, this Eclipse might just push you to finally let go. It’s like decluttering your emotional closet. Much more on this the day of because there are aspects and timelines you will definitely want to understand.


October 9: Jupiter Retrograde in Gemini

On October 9th, Jupiter slows its roll, going retrograde in witty, versatile Gemini. Jupiter Retrograde asks us to revisit, review, and reassess, particularly in the realm of communication and knowledge. Have you been trying to do all the things without mastering any of them? It’s time to get clear on your priorities and refine the way you share your ideas with the world. This is the perfect time to refine your ideas, take a break from overextending yourself, and really get focused. This is life changing aproach to prioritizing so take your time, we are here until February 4, 2025.


October 11: Pluto Direct in Capricorn

On October 11th, Pluto, the planet of transformation, stations direct in Capricorn after months of retrograde motion. Pluto’s retrograde journey has been all about digging deep into the structures of your life—especially in areas of career, authority, and long-term goals. Pluto demands that you face uncomfortable truths, dismantling anything that’s out of alignment. Now that Pluto is moving forward, it’s time to green light a rebuild, but with a newly integrated foundation.


This is not just a personal shift—it’s a massive marker for collective, permanent change. Pluto’s time in Capricorn started in 2008, and if that year rings a bell, it’s because it exposed some of the deepest financial and societal cracks in our systems. Since then, Pluto has been steadily restructuring everything from economies to government institutions, forcing us to confront corruption, imbalance, and outdated hierarchies. As Pluto prepares for a more permanent shift into Aquarius, the energy begins to move from the heavy, top-down authority of Capricorn to the more progressive, community-oriented vision of Aquarius. This is a powerful moment where you may start to feel a collective sense of hope and possibility for the future, as the focus shifts toward innovation, collective empowerment, and humanitarian ideals. The groundwork is being laid for sweeping societal evolution, and your role in this new chapter is coming into focus.


October 13: Mercury Enters Scorpio

On October 13th, Mercury slides into Scorpio, infusing our communications with mystery, depth, and intensity. Scorpio energy thrives on uncovering what lies beneath the surface, and Mercury in this sign isn’t interested in small talk or superficiality. This is the perfect time for those deep, transformative conversations you've been avoiding. Whether it’s with a partner, a friend, or yourself, be open to all forms of dialogue. If you've been skating around emotional truths, Mercury in Scorpio won’t let you off the hook.


This transit is an opportunity to build trust—both with yourself and others. Trust, at its core, is the belief that you can rely on an action, person, or experience to pan out. But Scorpio, on its toxic side, can struggle with trust issues, fearing vulnerability and betrayal. During this time, honest communication becomes a profound act of trust building. As you dig deep into your psyche and embrace the power of truth, you're not only transforming relationships, you're also reaffirming your faith in the process. Trust that this transit, however uncomfortable, will expand the cycle of connection, healing and transformation.


October 17: Full Moon in Aries & Venus Enters Sagittarius

October 17th brings some fire with a Full Moon in Aries and Venus entering adventurous Sagittarius. The Aries Full Moon is all about courage and independence—this is your moment to take charge and step into your power. Aries energy doesn’t ask for permission; it goes after what it wants. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to take action, this Full Moon may be it...stay tuned to see where this is happening in your chart because there is a lot of tension squaring this lunation.


On the same day, Venus enters Sagittarius, adding a playful, adventurous vibe to your relationships. Venus in Sag loves freedom, fun, and a little bit of risk-taking. It’s a great time to shake things up in your love life, whether you’re planning a spontaneous trip with your partner or exploring new ways to connect. If things have been feeling stale, this transit invites you to bring some excitement and joy back into your relationships.


October 22: Sun Enters Scorpio

On October 22nd, the Sun moves into deep and transformative Scorpio, marking the start of Scorpio season. Scorpio, ruled by Pluto, is unafraid of its own shadow and thrives in the depths of emotional and spiritual exploration. This energy is about rebirth, confronting what’s hidden, and embracing transformation. As the Sun enters Scorpio, it illuminates the path of change, infusing the process of shedding old layers with life force energy. This season isn't just about letting go—it's about revitalizing your spirit, finding strength in transformation, and drawing vitality from the process of release.

October 23: Jupiter Retrograde in Gemini Square Chiron in Aries

On October 23rd, we have a bit of a cosmic challenge as Jupiter retrograde in Gemini squares Chiron, the wounded healer, in Aries. This aspect may bring up some old wounds around communication and identity. Chiron in Aries is all about healing our sense of self and reclaiming our independence, while Jupiter retrograde asks us to reflect on how we share our truth. If you’ve been feeling insecure about speaking up or asserting yourself, this square might stir those feelings up.


Final Thoughts

October 2024 is all about transformation, reflection, and bold moves. With the Solar Eclipse and Full Moon urging you to release what no longer serves you, it's the perfect time to embrace the changes heading your way. Pluto going direct and the intensity of Scorpio season create the ideal energy for deep, meaningful shifts. Trust the process, lean into these transitions, and remember—you hold the power to shape your life. Light a candle, set your intentions, and let October’s cosmic magic guide you.
