This week’s astrology forecast:

October 26th – November 1st

Message for the week:

The week is bracketed with “heads up” days on Monday and Friday, with considerable harmony prevailing midweek and for the weekend. The Sun will be square to Pluto on Monday, giving power trippers and control freaks ample fuel to tend to their manipulative ways—avoid these types as best you can. The high road with this aspect, and there is always a high road, is to purge those aspects of your life that no longer support who you have come to be. “Purge who you aren’t to become who you are.”

Mercury is still retrograde in Scorpio, the sign that deals with elimination, making for an excellent week to re-examine all your ongoing expenses and eliminate redundant and unused services. This will also heighten your sensitivity to all the messaging people give with non-verbal communication—gestures, body language, tone, eye movement etc. to discover their true intentions.

The other “heads up” day is Friday, when Mercury will be in an irritating square to aggressive Mars. Although this may be good for writers and researchers to aggressively go at their projects, for most of us, this will feel like an argument waiting to happen. It would be wise to take a moment and calm any anger you feel before speaking, to avoid unnecessary flareups.

Monday, 10/26: Buried issues continue to come to light today with last night’s Full Moon energy still being felt, as well as the Sun being square to shadowy Pluto—revealing people’s true motivations and intentions. It should be clear to you who you need to avoid with this power-tripping energy. The Moon in Taurus throughout the day will help, preferring to keep life simple and comfortable. However, the evening is charged with angry, irritable energy, with the Moon moving into a square to hot-headed Mars. All in all, a day to walk lightly around others.

Tuesday, 10/27: You may wake up feeling a bit indulgent with the Moon in enjoyment-seeking Taurus square to excessive Jupiter—a lavish brunch? You may have to adjust your plans this afternoon to accommodate the needs of another, when the Moon forms a quincunx to Venus. A lively evening with stimulating conversations is available as the Moon enters highly communicative Gemini sextile to visionary Neptune and trine to deep-seeking Pluto. The Sun is quincunx to Uranus, spurring the drive to be more original in all that you do.

Wednesday, 10/28: A smooth and lively day with the Moon in variety-seeking Gemini forming sextiles to both stabilizing Saturn and energetic Mars. Great for all communications, learning, teaching, networking and expanding your web for gathering information.

Thursday, 10/29: Another smooth and enjoyable day with the Moon in fascination-seeking Gemini in a flowing trine to abundant Jupiter this morning, fueling optimism about the day’s possibilities. The Moon then moves into a trine to magnetic Venus and sextile to healing Chiron this afternoon—love heals. After a busy day you may be in the mood for a quiet evening when the Moon moves into nesting Cancer. If you are up late tonight, an escapist movie might be in store, when the Moon is square to escapist Neptune.

Friday, 10/30: All Soul’s Day—the veil between the realms is paper thin. Mercury is in an agitating square to irritable Mars, heating up all communications and mental activity. Feed your mind well today to employ this potentially volatile energy—excellent for investigative research. The Moon is in soft-hearted Cancer in a supportive trine to the energizing Sun, empowering the sense of well-being, but also, being square to demanding Saturn, can present a pressing responsibility that you must buckle down and tend to. The pressure is off for an enjoyable and nurturing evening.

Saturday, 10/31: Happy Halloween! The Moon is in homey Cancer to start the day and you may not be in the mood for socializing with the Moon forming squares to both Venus and Chiron this afternoon. Spirits will rise tonight, as the Moon moves into celebrative Leo, perfect for costume parties and other playful activities.

Sunday, 11-1: You may wake up feeling a bit excited about the day with the Moon in playful Leo in a stimulating sextile to electrifying Uranus. The Moon is trine Saturn although square to the Sun midday—you may feel a little frumpy, but it is easy enough to handle responsibilities. You likely will be hypersensitive to innuendos and the words not spoken in communications with others tonight, when the Moon squares Mercury retrograde in Scorpio.

May the stars be with you!
