Dear NightFall Astrology readers,
Are you tired of the looming indecisiveness for the past 5 weeks? I know I am! With Mars transiting Libra (its detriment (weak) position) and Mercury’s 3-week retrograde, making a final decision and acting on it has been quite challenging for a good portion of us, especially the Cardinal signs: Libra, Capricorn, Cancer, and Aries.
Well, guess what? That’s all about to change with Mars entering Scorpio (its home sign) this week and Mercury being already on a direct move and getting ready to get out of its shadow period.
Here’s your weekly horoscope.
- Keep your rose-coloured glasses off from October 25th until October 27th as Venus in adventurous Sagittarius will be squaring (tense aspect) dreamy Neptune retrograde in Pisces. The aspect will become exact on October 26th. When these dreamy planets square each other twice each year, it’s hard to tell what’s real and what’s an illusion. This could translate into the typical “give your ex another chance” scenario. Don’t be fooled by Venus’s impulsivity in Sagittarius; you may be feeling differently after the transit is over. The same goes for any important relationship-related decisions you may be considering making this week. Wait until the transit is over, or even better and if it’s a really important decision until Mercury goes out of shadow on November 3rd.
Impulsive purchases giving you “too good to be true” vibes are to be avoided as well. However, this is excellent energy for artistic endeavours! Express your glamourous imagination through fiery colours on a canvas, listening or composing energetic and passionate musical pieces, or simply putting new outfits or Halloween costumes together in your walk-in closet or “powder room”!
This transit will be most challenging for Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, and Sagittarius.
- From October 27th until October 30th (becomes exact on October 28th), Venus in Sagittarius will be sextiling Jupiter in Aquarius. This is the time to dream BIG and reach for the ungettable get! Sextiles are harmonious aspects, but you’re the one who has to stir the wheel and look and jump on the right opportunities. This is particularly positive energy for any unconventional ideas and/or long-term projects you may have been envisioning, and sharing them with an authority figure such as your manager. This is also supportive energy for settling any legal issues you may have been encountering, especially with foreigners. The world is your oyster if you choose it to be so!
This aspect will be most supportive of Aquarius, Sagittarius, Libra, Gemini, and Aries.
- From October 28th until October 31st (becomes exact on October 30th), the Sun in esoteric and detective Scorpio will be squaring (challenging aspect) Saturn in Aquarius. Right off the bat, I have to tell you that your strong will and desire will encounter obstacles and delays, especially in the career and business sector. The best way to use this energy is to dig deeper and get more information about the project you’re trying to make work or the authority figure (Saturn) that’s been delaying it and why. This is a useful aspect to improve your elevator pitch and argument in general. With the Sun in Scorpio, get into the strategist’s energy, do your research, and crack the case!
This transit will be most challenging for Aquarius, Scorpio, Leo, and Taurus.
- Speaking of getting into the strategist’s energy, we’ll be getting more of it for the next 7 weeks, with Mars entering its home sign of Scorpio on October 30th, just in time for Halloween! Mystery, magic and mojo are the order of the day until December 13th! In traditional astrology, Mars is known as the ruler of both Aries and Scorpio. In Aries, he exhibits his qualities outwardly (the daytime Mars), such as ambition, courage, leadership, impulsiveness, impatience, and always being in action. In Scorpio, these qualities are turned inwardly (the nighttime Mars); here, we’re speaking of the detective, the behind-the-scenes master of puppets, the surgeon, the tasteful and irresistible seducer, the magnetic charmer, the occultist… A good personification of Mars in Scorpio would be the character “Lucifer” from the famous Netflix series.
With Mars transiting Scorpio, all things represented by this sign will be energised, i.e. our urge to merge, whether financially or sexually, our willingness to dig deep into things and situations, our interest and need to look beyond the material world, get to know better our psyche, and develop our spirituality. This is a great period for getting consultations from astrologers, healers, psychologists, and psychiatrists.
Mars in Scorpio is excellent energy for all kinds of mergers and acquisitions. If you’re into investments, this is the time to play bold; you want to sign these deals in permanent ink! In existing joint ventures, switch up your strategy. Rather than splitting everything straight down the middle, play to each person’s strength and outsource the rest. That’s how to keep your duos dynamic.
This transit will be most beneficial for Scorpio, Cancer, Pisces, Capricorn, and Virgo.
- And we end the week with the 3rd and final trine between Mercury Direct in Libra and Jupiter in Aquarius that will be ongoing from October 30th until November 2nd (becomes exact on October 31st). This is the MOST harmonious transit of the week, so don’t waste it! Trines bring an easy flow of positive energy, and in this case, communicating original and innovative ideas are enhanced. Trines can be kind of lazy energy, so if any alluring offers fall into your lap, don’t pass them by!
And yes, if you’ve planned a Halloween party, the energy between your guests will be wonderfully jovial! Expect some crazy and eccentric, but stylish, costumes too!
This aspect will be most supportive of Aquarius, Libra, Gemini, Aries, and Sagittarius.
Have a super-duper spooky week, everyone!
