Holy moley. Let's dive right in.
Keep in mind I write about the aspect/transit for the day it is most exact, some things can happen as they apply and unwind.
MONDAY - Sun trines Uranus
TUESDAY - Mercury trines the North Node and opposes Chiron
WEDNESDAY - Mercury enters Scorpio
FRIDAY - Mercury squares Mars, inconjuncts Neptune and squares Pluto, Mars trines Neptune
SATURDAY - MARS OPPOSES PLUTO, Venus stations retrograde, Third Quarter Moon
SUNDAY - Sun opposes Saturn
MONDAY - Sun/Uranus can bring a breakthrough, a new perspective or maybe the feeling that something can move differently than it has been moving. Smooth flow between other people and the future/change/the unexpected. Do something new. Change is good.
TUESDAY - Mercury has reached the very end of Libra. That dread anaretic degree again. Home of 'Hail Mary plays' and "now or never" thinking. Maybe echoing the Sun's trine to Uranus from yesterday Mercury moves into smooth flow with the future. Words, conversations, ideas are pulling us forward. Something being said, understood, documented, read or communicated has significance beyond the immediate conversation. Then Mercury opposes wounded-healer Chiron. Maybe the same words that are pulling us forward are also touching on a wound/vulnerability. WORDS HURT. Trying to say the right thing backfires. Conversations around health issues can be challenging but also forward-leaning.
WEDNESDAY - Mercury, having had enough of Libra's pink paint and indecisiveness, dives into deep, intense, committed, and, yes, sometimes deadly SCORPIO. Remember Mercury was the only God who could come and go from Pluto's realm as he/she saw fit. This is excellent energy for deep (Scorpio) investigation/research (Mercury). Greater verbal intimacy. Therapy. We are going deep/talking about and thinking about Scorpian topics. Our thinking can get obsessive though - keep this in mind. With Mercury in Scorpio - our mind will need to focus. Puzzles help, so can mysteries. Multi-tasking gets harder because our intellect wants to sit with one thing for longer than we usually do. We won't be satisfied with superficial conversations and smiling faces hiding secrets. Let's keep in mind that both Mercury and Venus are going to retrograde here, so nothing is going to be a 'one-and-done'. Mercury won't be totally through with Scorpio until December 6th.
FRIDAY - this day is a PRESSURE-COOKER. Mercury square Mars can make communication sharp, impatient, defensive or combative. Think - short fuses. At the very least I would expect drama. TAKE A BREATH. Mercury quincunx Neptune introduces uncertainty/confusion, maybe miscommunication. Something may not be fully visible, understood or communicated cleanly. Choose your words carefully. Maybe what we thought we understood, well we don't or it doesn't quite fit the facts. People can misunderstand us. Then Mercury squares Pluto. This is intensity/volatility and can bring the conversation/argument down to the thing nobody really wants to talk about. Power, control, hidden information, fear, consequences, money, debt, inheritance, sex or whatever has been stuffed/suppressed. Words can be intense. Things can get ugly. Jealousy. Compulsion. Power struggles.
Mars trine to Neptune gives us a way through this mess. Intuition. Art. Music. Compassion. Connection. Forgiveness. Maybe giving something a rest. This is our one soft note, but Mars looks outnumbered ...
SATURDAY - THINGS COME TO A HEAD. Mars opposite Pluto can be EXPLOSIVE. Danger Will Robinson.
Keep in mind Mars aspects can trigger early, so maybe this has already happened.
This is will/action/ego vs power/control. Again, TAKE A BREATH. This is an especially intense time and we have Venus stationing retrograde at 8 degrees Scorpio (a power number in our power sign), so answering to both Mars and Pluto as they square each other and adding a kind of 'can't move forward' energy to relationships/values. We began talking about Venus retrograde HERE. She is asking us to RE-CONSIDER what we value, what we are willing to exchange for something, where reciprocity exists and what relationships or arrangements have become unsustainable. She is dragging us back to get a hold of something/a look at something we LOST.
This is also the day we reach the month's Last Quarter Moon - with the Moon (home in Cancer at 10-degrees) squaring the Libra Sun. Squares are tension/frustration. This one is asking if we feel safe/comfortable in our relationships. Are our needs being met? Do we feel at home with the other person?
SUNDAY - the week ends with a thud as the Sun opposes a retrograde Saturn. Reality check. Sober landing. ENDING. Limit. Clash with authority/rules. Heaviness. Maybe this is us working through - what can I realistically do about this? Sometimes Sun/Saturn is about a commitment or an outcome that delivers results. Saturn is retrograde, so this won't be a totally new thing.
These days just look like a total sh*tshow - I am not going to sugar coat it even with the Sun in Libra. Plan light. Drive safely. Move your body. Avoid assholes.
We talked in the October forecast HERE about early October bringing our focus to something/somethings we are going to be circling around and back to later. There are no straight lines in nature, no straight lines in life. We are in the New Moon in Aries (on Neptune) lunar cycle/overcoming fear and illusions and in the new Age of Aquarius and new ages are disruptive/traumatic because truly anything can happen. If there are any shortcuts/best ways through this - we will find them :)
