(READ THE MESSAGE FROM "AIM" BY CLICKING "MORE" TO HEAR ABOUT HOW NEW FREQUENCIES ARE BEING DOWNLOADED TILL THE END OF 2026)

FORECAST FOR END OF SEPTEMBER

We end September with a full Moon in Aries on Saturday, September 26th, Mars in Leo on the 27th and Mercury in Scorpio on September 30th.

For those living on the East Coast, a Nor'easter will start to impact us around the time the Moon is almost full, Friday.  This could last all weekend so prepare as the sign of Aries can be aggressive. 

The full Moon in Aries has two grand trines in the air signs of Libra, Gemini and Aquarius offering a feeling of peace as desires get fulfilled more easily than normal for these signs.

Aries is the warrior sign so we may hear more about wars in the world and how negotiations are going between nations at war. 

Mars in Leo starts an intense Political expression until Mars moves into Virgo on Thanksgiving. 

Mercury moving into Scorpio on the last day of September starts a wave of internal research for those who have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Scorpio and this extends throughout the month of October and November as both Venus and Mercury station retrograde in Scorpio in October. 

Great for psychologists, detective work like gathering information for forensic evaluation, working on a research project at school, increasing psychic abilities, telepathic communication, communicating one’s feelings better and getting your financial debt in control. 

ASTROLOGICAL FORECAST FOR OCTOBER:

October is busy with challenges in relationships as both Venus and Mercury will station retrograde in the signs of Scorpio and Libra.

These two signs will be diving deep into their psychology and feelings about healing past issues and moving into balance and justice for all by the time these two planets move forward in the middle of November. 

Venus starts its retrograde movement on October 3rd in the sign of Scorpio at 8 degrees. 

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Scorpio from 8 degrees to one degree, you are moving through the deep waters of your inner psychology regarding issues surrounding addictions and forgiveness so you can move forward in your relationships. 

Healing the past is a major theme with Venus in retrograde motion till November 14th. 

It will be from October 3rd till October 25th that Venus will remain in Scorpio doing all the deep work to heal the past and look more directly at issues you may have avoided for a long time. 

Keep in mind that Mercury will station retrograde on October 24th, only a day before Venus, still in retrograde, moves into the relationship sign of Libra. More on this later.

Venus turns retrograde every 18 months for 40 days and 40 nights. Sounds biblical but Venus has been experiencing retrograde motions long before the bible was ever written. 

This is a time to let go of addictive behavior and make the changes you have always wanted to make. Areas of your life that hold you back from fully accepting yourself. To love yourself is the greatest love of all. Without being arrogant about it. 

The affirmation for most of October is “I AM PERFECTION.” Just when the dark secrets of addiction arise to push you off your path of self-love, repeat this and give yourself up to a higher power. 

All of the therapies in holistic healthcare that allow energy to be released and healed such as deep meditation, massage therapies, drinking plenty of water, good diet, are all helpful during this time to release any issues that weigh heavy on your mind, body and spirit for October and through the middle of November. 

Especially for the fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius and the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. 

October 7th marks the anniversary of the Isreal conflict that happened at the Nova Music Festival where many Jews were kidnapped by Hammas in 2023. The next election in Isreal will be around the full Moon in Taurus on October 26th/27th. 

Full Moon’s represents completions and Taurus offers a time of stability, moving away from aggressive behavior. Will prime minister Netanyahu stay in power? The people of Isreal will make that chose soon. 

The new Moon in Libra on October 10th at 11:50AM EDT is at 17 degrees. If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Libra, you are seeking new approaches to relationships and how you express your creative energies. 

New Moons represent new beginnings. Another opportunity to refine areas of your life represented by the sign the new Moon is in. 

Libra is the peace maker of the Zodiac. It starts new negotiations in all areas of life between people. Libra seeks justice/balance. It also supports the fine arts and all beauty that surrounds us. 

Venus is the natural ruler of Libra, and this new Moon chart has Venus in retrograde motion in Scorpio at 7 degrees caught up in a T-square with the signs of Leo and Aquarius. These fixed signs are stubborn and have the headrest time letting go of old things that don’t work anymore. 

Taurus is the sign that can stabilize the T-square and since the full Moon on October 26this in the sign of Taurus, the lessons for the fixed signs to let go of old things they are holding onto will find fulfillment when this new Moon cycle completes itself. 

Since this is a political month, President Trump will continue to be stubborn and not be aware of the American people and what they really need. 

His Leo and Mars rising shows a stubborn personality and the voters in this important political year want him to connect with them, but he is hampered by his unaspected Sun in Gemini in his new solar year chart that started in June on his 80thbirthday. 

Unaspected means the planet, the Sun is the major planet for attention, is not having a relationship with the other planets, therefore, unaspected. Not connecting with the public at large. Not a great combination to have when you want Americans to think you are listening to them. 

It spells troubles in October and into the midterm elections for the Republican Party, but God knows the Democrats have a hard time winning at this point and only have themselves to blame if they cannot get the wind to switch direction to a more peaceful and abundant life for Americans. 

Trying to communicate clearly what either party stands for will be difficult with both Venus and Mercury in deep retrograde motion by November 3rd when the midterm election happens. 

Two grand trines in this new Moon chart help to find some balance but by the time we get to the full Moon in Taurus, the money sign, on October 26th, it is stressful. More on this towards the end of this column. 

Remember, Mars entered the sign of Leo at the end of September, the sign that rules leadership and affiliated with politics.

Mars will remain in Leo till thanksgiving and that is when it will be sitting right on top of President Trump’s rising sign of Leo also conjunct his South Node in Leo. Yikes. 

Thank God, the new Moon is in Libra as this energy will run till the full Moon on October 26thhelping to find some balance in all the news media chaos. 

Enough about Politics:

It is “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” on October 12th. Time to remember the cultures most connected to nature as many of these cultures live a simpler life. Many of them are far away from the hustle and bustle of modern-day technologies. 

My prayer is that America will have a holiday for American Indians, the original settlers of America. Why don’t we already have a holiday set aside for them? It’s called ignorance. 

Pluto stations direct on October 15th, in the middle of the month, at 3 degrees Aquarius.

If you have Sun, Moon, rising, or planets in Aquarius, you want to step forward with your individual power, as Aquarius is for the people and by the people. 

We could see lots of protesting going on from the middle of October till election day on November 3rd. This is the breaking point in Americas’ consciousness. 

Pluto is connected to Scorpio and Venus will be retrograde in Scorpio till October 25th. 

Pluto wants transformation. It is the renovator of the Zodiac. Anything hidden underground such as petroleum oil is affiliated with Pluto. 

Therefore, any issues surrounding fuel production and its effect on the economy will be front and center even more than it already has been. 

There could be increased troubles with A.I. and its effect on military action as the wars try to find resolution during Pluto’s direct motion period.

 Pluto will be in direct motion till June 2nd, just in time for the third of three expressions called a “Minor Grand Trine” between Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. 

Hopefully, the wars in the world and the instability of oil production and fuel prices will be more stable creating more optimism in our lives. 

June 2027 through the end of January 2028 is a time of miracles in America and around the world. 

October also remains a pivotal month when things that have been hidden can be exposed. With Pluto turning direct, we will hear more about U.F.O. files and more sightings from middle of October till the beginning of February 2027. Keep your eyes on the skies. 

The Sun Moves into the sign of Scorpio early in the morning on October 23rd at the same time Venus is retrograde in Scorpio within one degree of the Sun.

Happy birthday to Scorpio even thou they may feel like their inner world is being thoroughly investigated for any dark secrets held in check for years. It’s time to heal the wounds by Thanksgiving. 

The affirmation for those born under the sign of Scorpio and the other fixed signs, Taurus, Leo, and Aquarius in October and through November, “I LET OF THE OLD AND EMBRACE ALL OF THE WONDERFUL NEW THE UNIVERSE HAS FOR ME.”  

Mercury turns retrograde on October 24th in the sign of Scorpio at 20 degrees. 

We started off October with Venus retrograde in Scorpio and as of October 24th, Mercury stations retrograde in Scorpio. 

Is there any help for the sign of Scorpio before the wicked witch starts to fly around and steal your dog?

The answer is yes. Venus, in retrograde motion, begins to move through the sign of Libra on October 25th giving those with Scorpio energies a break with some needed balance, Libra, in their personal life. 

Relationships are a front and center issues that the signs of Scorpio and Libra are trying to find balance with. 

Mercury will not station direct till November 13th still in the sign of Scorpio at 5 degrees and on the same day, Venus stations direct on November 13that 22 degrees of Libra. 

All the work and chaos that the retrograde planets have caused, especially for Scorpio and Libra, finds balance. 

Therefore, it is important for those with Scorpio and Libra energy to clear out the deep issues inside of themselves so by the time November 13th comes, they are clear on how they will proceed with their relationships without any shadow issues clouding their perceptions. 

Adjustments in all relationships for these two signs as well as all fixed and cardinal signs will take place. If you do the work to heal yourself from the inside out, you will feel the freedom of bliss starting on November 13th and be out of the shadows of this intense retrograde period by the middle of December. 

If you don’t do the work for yourself, then relationships could end up working against your life’s path leading to troubled times. 

I teach “Inner Grace Mediation” which would help to clear out the deepest issues surrounding relationships allowing you to enjoy your life regardless if you are in love or not. It’s quite easy to learn and practice. Effortless. 

Meditation can create confidence in yourself to move forward from any job or relationship that is not supporting your soul’s growth anymore. To be in the present moment. To live life to its fullest.

The full Moon is in the sign of Taurus at 2 degrees on October 26th at 12:12PM EDT. 

This full Moon chart is nothing short of a disaster when it comes to stress levels between planets. With several T-squares and a Yod, finger of God, the financial market could be at a lower level of confidence than what we have seen over the last several months. 

Taurus is the bull outside of Wall Street. Money and material assets are a part of the bull’s nature. Also, beautiful works of art that are valuable. 

With Venus in retrograde motion, Venus rules Taurus and Libra, at 29 degrees, a crucial degree, financial relationships in the market are looking intense. 

The Sun in Scorpio, the opposite sign of Taurus, is caught up in a T-square and at the eye of the Yod involving Neptune and Uranus. 

Neptune dissolves the material world and Uranus creates unexpected changes. Look at this time, a little less than a week from the midterm election, to create a situation where the financial market could spell the difference between who is going to make gains in this midterm election. 

Look for an unexpected event that intensifies Americans need to make changes. A change in the wind is about to happen for the better and take the stuck unproductive energies in the financial markets and allow changes that can no longer be ignored. 

The fixed signs of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius are most affected. What we need to let go of is to embrace a more balanced approach to economics in America. This is the hallmark of this midterm election. 

For all the zodiac signs mentioned through this October column, you want to make sure you are as balanced in your financial life as possible. 

Stress management will be important from the new Moon that started on October 10thtill the next new Moon on November 9th. 

Until then, put your seatbelts on, take a walk, observe nature, take the time each day to listen and experience silence/peace. 

October may not be the most comfortable month of 2026, but it will bring the changes needed and release stagnant energy that no longer serves the world. 

May all the inner work we do in October continue in November in a more productive way so we can celebrate the holiday season producing so many new possibilities in 2027. 

I am calling 2027 “THE YEAR OF MIRACLES”. It will be a much better year than we have seen since the Covid crisis with new health benefits that cure health issues humans have been dealing with for decades. 

Some of this new directions in health will come from E.T. races that are master genetics and fill in many missing links to cure health issues over the next decade or so and reverse the aging process with natural methods using sound, light and colors spinning at megahertz are genetic engineers are not aware of presently.
