October 2026 brings back people, offers and wishes that already looked finished. Venus turns retrograde on 3 October, Mercury on the 24th, and between them the New Moon in Libra opens a new cycle in partnerships.
Here is the whole forecast for the twelve signs: love, work, finances, three real positive events, three warnings, the most important decision of the month, a recommendation and a message from the Archangels.
Read your own sign, then your ascendant, and if you know which sign your Moon is in, read that one too. The three texts together give a far fuller picture than one sign alone.
2 October — Mercury square Mars and Mercury square Pluto: sharp conversations, information that provokes a reaction, strong negotiations, a risk that the words run ahead of the reasoning. 3 October — Venus turns retrograde in Scorpio; Mars trine Neptune and opposition Pluto: a return to love, desire, jealousy, intimacy, shared money and old attachments; very strong will and passion. 4 October — Sun opposition Saturn: reality sets a limit, a deadline or a responsibility.
7 October — Mercury conjunct Venus and Mars sextile Uranus: a conversation from the past, a sudden contact, a new decision or a meeting. 10 October — New Moon in Libra at 17°22′: a new cycle in partnerships, contracts, mutuality and balance; on the night of 11 October Venus squares Mars and the chemistry of love becomes considerably louder. 15 October — Sun sextile Jupiter: an opportunity, support, good news.
