OCTOBER 2025 ASTROLOGY REPORT
GO Into your depths, then take a full breath and go deeper still!
October is a month of deep sifting. The mind, heart, and soul are each invited to take their separate journeys and to return to one inner altar. This month we find ourselves negotiating layers of meaning, wounding, longing, and power. The 10 energy of the month provides a real chance for integration and shows us the potentials to come in the 1 energy of 2026.
The month opens with confrontation; can we justify our beliefs? Deeper truths beneath our patterns demand examination. Juno’s entrance into Sagittarius that same day asks us to collectively reexamine how we define commitment to meet our spiritual and philosophical needs. Are we aligning ourselves with borrowed beliefs?
Mental tension is high this month, especially in the first week, as issues around authority, self-worth, and how we communicate our needs arise. The evolutionary question here is, are we allowing our wounds to become wisdom, or simply rationalizing the armor we wear around them?
The Full Moon (Oct 6) lights up the ego and conjures an image of unseen helpers. The reminder here is that even in catastrophic breakdowns, we are not alone. Aries demands individual courage, but this lunation may reveal where autonomy has become isolation too. Just as we’re metabolizing this, Mercury becomes active again, entering Scorpio and squaring Pluto. Here we have a sharp mental descent into the underworld of motivations. Honesty isn’t optional. Transparency around our dark side and the free rein some allow their darkness needs careful consideration and awareness right now. Words, beliefs and ideas can kill and cause suffering. There is grace if we’re willing to soften. Self-responsibility is non-negotiable.
Venus’ entrance into her own sign of Libra (Oct 13) creates a rapid series of initiations. What is required of us in love? Are we seeking validation where we need self-respect? This moment can illuminate where our longings clash with our responsibilities—or where we're overburdening ourselves in the name of affection. Pluto stationing direct not long after calls to us a new archetype of power. Can we love clearly without giving away our power or disappearing into fantasy?
The New Moon (Oct 21) speaks to culmination and crossing thresholds. This moon is about wisdom gained through hardship. Set intentions now for the relationships that support your fullest becoming, not just your immediate comfort. Neptune's retrograde re-entry into Pisces the next day is a return to the deep ocean. We must now retrieve a part of our dream that got left behind—one that still wants breathing room, still wants birth.
Scorpio season begins in earnest with the Sun's entry (Oct 23) we heal by daring to look under the surface. As the month closes, our motivation gets a pulse of ignition that is both strategic and expansive. Mercury enters Sagittarius (Oct 29) lighting the torch of inspired thinking. It brings with it a mixed bag of downloads, revelations, and the need to let go of rigid certainty. We are strong enough to hold this.
This Month’s Inquiries:
Where have I accepted inherited beliefs that no longer resonate with my lived experience?
Am I moving from my wound or from my wisdom?
How can I honor my desire for connection without abandoning myself?
What truth am I afraid to speak—and what power lies dormant behind that fear?
This October, we are being asked to be profoundly honest. The transits this month support courage in self-inquiry, clarity in communication, and emotional and spiritual depth. Trust in the shedding. Stand naked in your truth and know that you are enough, even in your unraveling. Speak what’s been hidden. Write it. Burn it. Offer it. Let the mind transform so that you can create your most worthy dreams.
