ASTROLOGICAL FORECAST For OCTOBER 2025
October shows adjustments in all areas of life for the signs of Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.
Mars entered Scorpio at the end of September and will remain in Scorpio till November 4th.
We have seen the ugliness of Mars in Scorpio with continued violence manifesting in America and around the world. Mars entered Scorpio on September 22nd and will remain in Scorpio till November 4th.
October will be the month when adjustments need to be made surrounding how far ICE and the military in one way or another will continue to show force of actions on the public. Also, international tensions in two major wars that need to find peace/balance.
The full Moon on October 6th is in Aries, the sign of war, will be at 14 degrees (11:48PM EDT). This is a Supermoon. That's when the Moon is closer to the Earth and looks larger.
November and December of 2025 will also have Supermoon's.
If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Aries or Scorpio, you are feeling a sense of self-empowerment. Your confidence will be high.
Mars is the natural ruler of Aries. As mentioned, it will be moving through Scorpio until November 4th, so this gives Aries and Scorpio less patience.
This full Moon has two T-squares of tension along with one Yod (Finger of God) continuing tensions we saw in the new Moon of September 21st which completes itself on this full Moon Day October 6th.
Emotions are high as this full Moon chart has a Cancer signature. The sign of Cancer flows with emotional ups and downs so if you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Cancer, you may find yourself needing to feel closer to family even thou there may be lots of family drama.
If you have your Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Scorpio, you are feeling tensions also in all areas of life to transform (Scorpio), family matters (Cancer), with more patience (Aries).
With Mercury entering Scorpio the next day, October 7th, Scorpio is fixated on any work they are doing regarding research about birth and death issues. Detectives, Surgeons, and forensic scientists will be very busy the first few weeks of October.
Turn to your friends born under the sign of Capricorn for practical advice regarding the balance between work and family life.
You will hear a lot, we always do, about legal matters in politics as the Sun in Libra is involved in one of the T-squares. If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Libra, you want to find balance in all your relationships.
Seek out practical advice from those born under the sign of Taurus, especially if it involves financial advice.
We may see more couples filing for divorce with this full Moon tension involving Libra. Negotiations between humans will be difficult especially for the first 21 days of October. If financial stability can be achieved in relationships, it could help to continue a personal relationship.
However, I do see the economy becoming a main topic that cannot be pushed under the tariff rug anymore for October, November, and December. President Trump has so much of his attentions on trying to find peace in America and around the world he is losing his ability to help the economy move forward.
He may have to send out a stimulus check to Americans by the end of November if he wants his ratings to stabilize and show a more positive outlook for the economy. American farmers are becoming more stressed under the leadership of President Trump and his financial advisors.
Thank you to all the musicians who participated in “Farm Aid.” What a wonderful blessing to American farmers.
Small business owners are the most effected by the tariff soap opera and the next several months will be an unstable time for small businesses. President Trump must show more compassion in the areas of small businesses and healthcare to be an ideal President for the American people.
Where is the balance in the American culture and several countries around the world? Violence/stress is obvious, and it needs holistic healthcare practices to minimize the dark side of Aries and Scorpio.
Venus moves into Libra on October 13th, Venus rules Libra and Taurus, and this can bring some needed balance to relationships and more honesty as to what is happening with economic stability.
Pluto stations direct on October 13th, the same day Venus moves int Libra, and this can create some protesting of people towards their governments.
Becoming more vocal and proactive. People by October 13th have lost their patience with their government and will vocalize this for the rest of 2025 and even more pronounced in 2026.
Pluto is in the sign of Aquarius and needs to get to three degrees before it settles down.
Most of the violence from humans and mother nature is because Pluto is in the rebellious sign of Aquarius wanting individual freedom and Pluto also expresses the darker subconscious thoughts and feelings of humans. This energy will settle down around the end of 2026 when Pluto reaches three degrees.
The new Moon on October 21st is in the sign of Libra at 28 degrees (8:25AM EDT). This new Moon has two T-squares, a Grand water element trine and two Yods “Finger of God.”
Again, we continue adjustments for the signs of Libra, Aquarius, Cancer, Gemini, Aries, Scorpio, and Pisces.
Whatever happens in the lives of these signs mentioned shows new beginnings. New opportunities to grow even thou it may seem stressful at times for all the signs mentioned.
Neptune moves into Pisces the next day after the new Moon on October 22nd and for those with Sun, Moon, rising and planets in Pisces, they return to internal dialogue that can give them hints as to how to proceed with life.
Neptune will station direct on December 10th so take the time to plant seeds of intention through creative visualization techniques to manifest more money or a new job/relationship from October 22nd till December 10th. Set up your holiday season with cheer.
Happy birthday to the sign of Scorpio as the Sun enters Scorpio on October 22nd.
Turn to the sign of Aries to stabilize the T-squares if you are born under the signs of Libra, Aquarius, and Cancer as Aries can give you the courage to move forward. To take a chance in life with more courage.
The grand trine on the new Moon Day offers less stress in the midst of a T-square for the water signs of Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces. Grand trines are the wind at your back. The T-squares and Yod’s offer challenges and opportunities, but the grand trine offers a calm breeze for the water signs that other signs mentioned may not experience.
Mercury will enter the sign of Sagittarius on October 29th and end the month with a much better feeling from all the stress we have seen over the last couple of months.
Sagittarius wants to move higher up the education ladder so college students will feel like they are enjoying school till Mercury stations retrograde on November 9th. More on this in my November column.
If you have Sun, Moon, rising or planets in Sagittarius you can help those around you shoot for the stars and help them to laugh more as Sagittarius is known to be the jokester of the Zodiac. A good sense of humor can take you out of any depressive situations.
October promises more adjustments, but the economy needs to be talked about more as many families want to experience a relaxed holiday season by the end of November, December and the beginning of 2026.
Uranus will move back into the money sign of Taurus on November 8th, and this can be an unexpected stimulus check announced at this time as Americans are becoming increasingly disappointed with President Trump and economic promises.
Happy Halloween to everyone on October 31st.
