10/13 • Venus Enters LIBRA (until Nov 6th):
Venus (values, priorities, resources, love, art, beauty, culture) in Libra (balance, reciprocity, relationships) is a time to restore balance within your Being and develop a new sense of personal self-worth & value. This is an opportunity to renegotiate terms of your primary relationships and determine what is no longer important to you, while preparing to go deeper. If you align your priorities within your own Being, as well as your primary relationships of *NOW* ~ then it will make next month’s deep-dive into the potent Scorpio energy much more productive (and less debilitating). When Venus is in Libra, it is time to assess your priorities and re-establish balance with a cool head (Air Sign). What is fair, just and worth it for you, by your own definition? It is time to take an honest look at how you, your life and choices affect those closest to you. And you want to reflect on how effective your choices actually are (or have been) in attracting your heart’s desires. Remember, Libra is the lesson of “balance & reciprocity” which must be considered before taking on the Scorpio lesson of “karma & creation”, otherwise you only create more “karma & creations” to clean up along the way. Venus will always remind you that you ARE what you attract and you show the Universe what you value by what you spend your primary resources on (time, energy, money). So use this time and Cycle to recalibrate things consciously and look for new ways of relating.
10/13 • Venus (relationships) ~oppose~ Neptune (illusion):
Beware of delusions of grandeur where your relationships (old or new) and/or your finances are concerned. Basically, you should keep your true priorities in mind and you will be fine, but if you are deluded to any extent, it may be revealed at this time. It is time to balance what is truly important to you in your interactions with others and the vision for the long-term goal of the collaboration. You can have an ideal romantic experience with this energy, but remember true love takes time, hard work & dedication, while romance tends to come and go. This energy tends to make you give and give and give in a relationship thinking that it will inspire the other to respond in kind, but ultimately, you just end up empty-handed & drained because your motives weren’t correct, you were doing it with expectation (consciously or not), which almost always will let you down. Giving with any expectation generally leads to disappointment. A better use of this energy is to focus on any kind of artistic or altruistic endeavors.
10/13 • Pluto Direct in AQUARIUS:
Pluto in Aquarius is shifting the annual purification & transformative process onto humanity, technology & the future for the next 20-years. This is a mixed blessing, as with all alignments, there is a Light & Shadow Expression. The blessing of Pluto moving through Aquarius is the mass-awakening of humanity on some level. The old ways no longer work and where we have been trapped in *survival mode*, we now have to consider the future of the next 7-generations. Our choices directly affect them and power is shifting from the old school, controlling patriarchy – the few who want to horde the resources & control the many to the new school, progressive, future-oriented Aquarius that wants more community, collaboration & equal distribution of resources to those who need it most. We get super-inventive & creative when shifting big cycles like this.
At a minimum, Pluto’s ingress will seal the deal of utter transformation & rebirth in our own Aquarius Depts, as individuals. But remember, this is a low ‘n slow kind of cookin’ that Pluto will do over the next 20-years. As with any healing or transformation, we have to purify first, then we can heal, then we can restore, then we can fortify – it is a PROCESS. And it is a 20-year process, so pace your Self and start paying more attention to the annual upgrades that it brings with every retrograde and your own transformative process.
Another blessing of Pluto in Aquarius is that we may shift to a higher form of communal living where we share resources and are responsible for our own individual communities. This progressive energy sees the value & longevity possible when we share the work, as well as the rewards. There is value to offering your own unique contribution and working together as a team for the greater good but for the powers that be, who want clones & drones instead of critical, creative thinking human beings, this is threatening. And nothing worthwhile is ever easy or simple. This is a radical shift to a new way of working together, using technology to serve its true purpose (not run the world) but of freeing us up to be more creative individuals. This is when our innovation goes through the roof, partly by those breaking the rules and liberating old consciousness but also partly by that old saying that “need is the mother of all invention”. We “need” a new way that is more life-affirming & sustainable. And in order to combat some of the consumption & waste, we are going to have to literally invent new things to help us move forward.
The Shadow side of Pluto in Aquarius is embodied by those who would enslave us with technology, blurring the lines between human nature and the nature of technology. One operates on organic, evolutionary responsiveness and the other is programmed & disconnected from the multi-dimensionality of Earthly existence. How do you “blend” that without annihilating one or the other or both? This is the cold, detached rulers overseeing the minions that they feel entitled to control, exploit & manipulate for personal gain. Pluto in Aquarius over the years, coincides with huge battles over resources, slavery & human trafficking and here we are with this all “up” again. We must be vigilant about preventing another era of global slavery, oppression & manual labor that allows their technologies to continue sucking Mother Earth of Her resources and expanding unabated until they take over. Then, we have altered the organic nature of Earth and Her creatures which naturally inhabit this planet – humanity being one of those creatures – will all be altered as well.
As it goes Direct this year, we embark on this 20-year journey of purification & transformation once and for all. Each year, when Pluto Retrogrades, we get to pull inward for that purification but now that it is Direct, we should start to see the results of any Shadow Work that we’ve been able to do or any life changes we have been able to facilitate over the last 5-months (May-Oct 2025). Now we will go forward and have that newly integrated power, tested.
10/14 • Venus (resources & relationships) ~trine~ Uranus (freedom & liberation):
This energy is bound to infuse a touch of excitement into your life, presenting opportunities to explore new avenues and intentionally immerse yourself in situations that demand improvisation or quick thinking. We are amid a phase of breaking old patterns and reshaping them into more positive & effective forms. While you can still embody your true values & priorities, there has been a shift within you. This cosmic blessing enables alignment with greater personal integrity & authenticity, which permeates everything you cherish and hold dear. Relationships might feel unusually charged. Established relationships could experience a shake-up, adding a sprinkle of extra “spice,” while new relationships sparked during this time may be invigorating & unconventional, yet potentially short-lived. However, this brevity is not necessarily negative! It is an ideal opportunity for experimenting with fresh ideas and new ways of expressing, discovering what truly resonates with your heart. Use this energy to soak up some good energy & rare wisdom from those who are unique, those who do things differently and live life to the fullest!
10/14 • Venus (relationships & resources) ~trine~ Pluto (purification & transformation):
When Pluto enters the scene, intensity rises, allowing you to perceive your SoulSelf with heightened clarity. Venus, on the other hand, illuminates what truly matters to you—your personal values, priorities & preferences around your relationships & resources. If change is in the air, then this harmonious alignment facilitates smoother purification & transformation than usual. So, what changes are you prepared to make? How have your values & priorities shifted in the past year? Utilize this activation to deepen connections with those closest to your heart, encouraging relationships to evolve to their own natural next levels. If you are focused on improving your relationship with money or self-worth, consider using this time for prayer or ritual to support positive change and envision a brighter future. Harness any intense emotions or poignant revelations by channeling them into art or creating a vision board, expressing the profound depths emerging from within and rising into your conscious awareness. This energy tends to amplify relationships and intensifies emotions, fostering a strong emotional & physical attraction toward someone else. It encourages a compelling need to express love mentally, emotionally or physically. Such intensity can also bring deeper insights to the surface, ultimately strengthening any relationships, partnerships or collaborations. Relationships initiated under this influence typically carry a heightened intensity with them, just as any form of creative expression will, whether artistic or otherwise.
10/17 • Sun (energy & focus) ~square~ Jupiter (imagination & beliefs):
This potent energy urges discernment; while it also motivates you to achieve numerous tasks, so it is crucial to avoid taking on more than you can manage solo. Nevertheless, if you seek that extra push to accomplish tasks, this energy offers the needed optimism to expand beyond your usual limitations. It can also evoke a sense of self-righteousness, yet directing this energy inward can bring substantial benefits. Integrating your beliefs into your actions and embodying your own truth is essential. However, imposing your beliefs on others might lead to challenges. Stay open-minded and receptive, embracing a “don’t-know” attitude, as there is always potential to learn from different perspectives that could be invaluable now or in the future.
