Romance and personal revelations are the highlights in your weekly horoscope for October 6 to 12, 2024. The week starts out with an unusually romantic and passionate alignment of Venus in Scorpio and Mars in Cancer, encouraging emotional vulnerability and turning up the heat in your romantic relationships. This is a lovely time to make progress on a creative project or to just have some hot sex (if you’re feelin’ it). On the same day, Mercury in Libra links up with Jupiter in Gemini, bringing lucky news your way. Mercury, the planet of communication, meets with Jupiter, the planet of wisdom. Together, you’re able to come up with solutions, or you may uncover a new idea you want to follow through on.
Later in the day, Mercury in Libra stares down wounded healer Chiron in Aries. This opposition in the sky highlights your limiting beliefs and puts a spotlight on your past pain. Reflecting on your healing journey and the work that still is yet to come can lead to revelations. You’re also able to process and understand some of your own past traumas and triggers with a new perspective. Jupiter, the planet of wisdom and growth, goes retrograde in Gemini on October 9. You’re reconsidering some of your goals, your beliefs, and experiencing a perspective shift.
You can also kiss eclipse season goodbye a few days later on October 10, thanks to the first quarter moon in Capricorn. This brings you back to the new moon solar eclipse in Libra that took place on October 2. First quarter moons are all about taking action, especially when they occur in cardinal signs like Libra and Capricorn. It’s time to put a plan into motion or make a decision.
Pluto retrograde ends in Capricorn on October 11, marking one of the most pivotal moments during Pluto’s final tour through Capricorn. Pluto will re-enter Aquarius on November 19, leaving Capricorn for the rest of our lifetimes (!). This will bring you back to May 2, when Pluto’s retrograde journey began. How has your relationship with power, control, surrender, and some of your fears and insecurities evolved since then? It’s time to reclaim your power, face some fears, and experience a cathartic transformation in the process.
The week wraps up with Chiron in Aries syncing up with Jupiter in Gemini on October 12. This might feel like a moment of integration regarding your healing journey. You’re not responding and reacting to your triggers in the same way you once did—rather, you’ve learned to give yourself compassion and are growing from them. This is a moment to be proud of your own growth and evolution.
