ZOE MOON'S OCTOBER MONTHLY FORECAST 2013
Why is there so much concern over the Moon events in the month of October? Because they are going to be much more active and dynamic than other Moon's this past year. Is this something to fear? It is far better to approach October knowing that this is one of those month's that life is all about, where everything gets stirred up into a commotion and you are moving forward on any stagnant matters rather than worrying that something will go in a direction you do not want to see. You have free will to act or react as you see fit and I will do my best to outline just what is likely to get tossed into the proverbial mixer so you know how to prepare as best you can.
The month begins with the NEW MOON in Libra and this is the starting gun shooting you out there into new directions. This is not your typical New Moon because it is going to not only activate the Uranus/Pluto square but form what is called a GRAND CROSS. This Grand Cross is where the action amps up big time and it plays out with the New Moon and Sun together in Libra on one corner of the Cross, Uranus opposite in the sign of Aries on another point of the Cross, Pluto squaring up in Capricorn on the third point of the Cross, and Jupiter in Cancer sitting the fourth point of the Cross. Grand Cross configurations want something to change, move forward, rev up, and with New Moon energy behind it we are in for some real call to action. Again, you may be reacting to something happening or steering the ship into new waters yourself. The New Moon will give you a full 2 weeks to make it happen or deal with what happens.
Let's look at what this New Moon means for us as far as change and new beginnings. Libra is the sign of balance, justice, and our key relationships. So we are going to be heading out into new areas via what's going on with marriage, romantic or business partners, agents, attorneys, experts, clients, specialists, competitors, advocates, opponents, and the like. How would you like to find new balance with these people or how can you find balance in a certain area of life by connecting with some of these people for their help? Uranus in opposition says something is going to change and perhaps suddenly. This may be very exciting or it may bring a bit of a shock. In Aries it could involve the body, image, name, or personal goals. Pluto in square means a powerful evolution is occurring, again bringing change and it may involve financial matters, divorce, third party situations, sex, your goals, career, reputation, fame, a parent, boss, or personal ambition. Jupiter in square means that something big is pushing to add to the happenings and it will come through home matters, moves, renovations, family, a parent, roommate, real estate deals, property concerns, or your sense of security. Not only will these bodies be active but we need to look at the ruler of this New Moon, Venus.
Venus will be in a square of her own from the transformational sign of Scorpio. From this position she will want change and play out around love or money tied to bigger financial resources, a divorce, death, birth, or the sex life. She will square Mars and Neptune so there may be fights, amped up action, passion, confusion, deception, or inspiration tied into this period and playing out over health matters, work, paperwork, or animals. You can use this square to help you motivate on these matters and come from an inspired perspective, working through any confusion but you need to be aware that all may not be as it seems and be cautious if you feel something is amiss. Get ready to embark on an intense journey starting now.
On the 5th Saturn will adjust to Uranus so something involving that financial need, a life or death scenario, a birth, divorce, your sexual attractions or issues, or third party scenarios will require some adjustment. Take a deep breath and think about solid, steady steps you can take to cement something.
Venus moves into the sign of Sagittarius on the 7th where she will spend the rest of the month helping you to smooth out legal matters, educational interests, wedding plans, media, marketing or publishing deals, travel plans, and beliefs. Here she will bring women that can benefit you through these means as well as opening up the love and income opportunities. She has 2 days where you may have to push harder or deal with a glitch here and they fall on the 10th and 16th. Both days will bring up any Karmic matters in the mix and focus on what is going on behind the scenes. If you need to meditate or connect with your spiritual practices, find time for romance or artistry, these days will test you a bit. There is also the possibility that a hospital need or addiction comes into play so if this sounds like something going on in your life then plan for a bit of leeway on these days.
Mars enters Virgo on the 15th where he is determined to light a fire underneath your health priorities and work life. Here he will give you a fighting spirit and help you motivate on doing what needs done to land a job, further your work life, get active with co-workers or people you hire, tackle your paperwork, start working out, get surgeries underway, see your doctor, hire the trainer, start the diet, you get the idea. Passions may erupt in these areas of life or you may find you are fending off more spats or feeling frustrated and pissy yourself, regardless, you will move forward. If you are dealing with animals or environmental interests Mars will drive these matters forward now as well. Days to watch for highly charged Mars energy are the 19th when you will be involved in something here with another person and the 31st when everything amps up and changes can occur.
The secondary intense change of the month after the New Moon energy comes on the 18th with a FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE in Aries. As you may know, Eclipses bring 3 times the punch as far as endings, climaxes, achievements, celebrations, and wrap-ups. This one is in the sign of the body, ego, personal goals, image, brand, name, identity, and activates a T-square with the Sun and Jupiter. So you can expect that you have worked through your fresh starts and are nearing a culminating point now that is all about you.
That other person is in the mix and so is your feeling of home or family, what's going on with real estate or moves, roommates or parents, security or history. You may look back to Sept 20th for clues as a trigger date that may have brought you some idea of what was wrapping up now. Eclipses may be start to come into being as soon as 5 days prior so you will start to feel this build-up and see events coming into play as soon as the 13th. It may be time to release something personal or physical that has been going on, allow the universe to do it's job.
Mercury Retrogrades on the 21st and will remain in Retrograde motion through November 10th. This is a Retrograde in the sign of Scorpio and it moves from the 18th back to the 2nd degree of the sign during its phase. So you will be reworking or revisiting paperwork, agreements, writing, offers, sales, and decisions involving loans, debt, inheritance, bankruptcy, insurance, taxes, settlements, investments, alimony, child support, commissions, a partner's money, divorce, your sex life, reproductive needs, a death, birth, or third party situation. Let me be clear that this phase is not about scratching the surface. You need to dig deep, open up whatever is buried and work through issues, see if there is a reason to reconnect with someone, release matters, revise them, or reclaim them. Take the time as a gift to get it right, to make sure, before all of this moves forward in November again. Since Mercury Retrogrades bring mix-ups and miscommunications, breakdowns and snafus, double check everything. There is a triangle that is active, make certain you know and understand what the other people are doing. As always with a Retrograde period, if you can hold off on signing new agreements and instead work on fixing the old ones you are in a better position. The same goes for holding off on new electronic or mechanical purchases, instead focusing on old ones.
The Sun moves into Scorpio on the 23rd where he will plop you down into this Retrograde agenda on a more personal or physical level and keep you busy there for the next 30 days. You will want to get more involved, show up, take the lead, and it may require your name on the dotted line or an identity matter coming to bear. It will be a more sexed up time or one where your personal power, finances or divorce will consume more of your energy.
The last major aspect of the month arrives on the 28th as Pluto and Chiron form an alliance. This will bring an opportunity for some major change to open up around any wound you have been feeling or are dealing with behind the scenes. Look for ways to reach out to parents, bosses, judges, and other authority figures, do what you can to transform deeper connections or ambitions, pursue career agendas or personal goals, and find healing on some level through film, music, art, meditation, magic, yoga, intuition, hospitals, research, retreat, rest, recuperation, and development.

ARIES:
Your sign has been going through some of the most intense changes of the zodiac thanks to the Grand Cross forming with your sign and this month is when you will see a major shift occur that is part of the journey of depositing you in your new version of yourself up ahead, it's going to be intense and exciting, so get ready. On the 4th is the NEW MOON in Libra and a huge push for you to do something different via a partner, specialist, client, attorney, agent, or other key person. This is activating the Grand Cross and pushing for something personal, physical, about your identity, personal goals, body, name, or brand, and will have some powerful affect on your home, family, move, renovation, legal interests, educational pursuit, media interest, wedding plan, travel plan, and the financial situation, divorce, reproductive matter, or career need. Yep, like I said, Aries is getting hit in many areas of life right now and this opens a 2 week window that is set to push you forward through this other person so propel the change with your typical fighting spirit and trust in the universe.
There is an adjustment required on the 5th involving those financial, sexual, reproductive, or divorce issues so be willing to work on it from a new angle if you can and if you find you are being asked to reschedule or rework something due to financial limitations then do your best to adapt in the moment knowing this is going to continue to morph up ahead.
A woman my arrive on the scene who can help you legally or through a visit or trip, educational matter, media, publicity, marketing, publishing, or wedding need on the 7th. From this day through the rest of the month you will find your love life or income is focused more in these arenas and that you should be able to work things out with a little charm and less effort. There will be 2 days that are exceptions to this and they fall on the 10th and 16th when you will have to deal with an institution such as a hospital or retreat, do your research, get hit with something out of the blue that you weren't expecting, work through some confusion or fog, deal with disillusionment, addictions or feeling isolated, or have something a bit whack around film, music, art, meditation, yoga, research, or development.
Your ruler, Mars, will move into Virgo on the 15th to amp up the volume around health matters, work, paperwork, and pets. The rest of the month he will be giving you a boost of energy to tackle what is going on here or to motivate you to get more physically active over these themes. A younger male may show up that is beneficial to your health or job, or he may be able to spur you on with the animals or paperwork. The 19th and 31st are set to be big days when it comes to the job, paperwork, health, or animals. The 19th when you are one-on-one with someone in a healing or research capacity, helping you to realign to your artistic, spiritual or physical best, or when there is some confusion or deception in the mix that needs to be worked through. It may be a day to deal with hospitals or other institutions or face bad habits or addictions as well. The 31st will help you to work on the same topics but make powerful changes.
The FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE arrives on the 18th brings something going on with your body, image, brand, name, or personal goals to a head. You may see things wrapping up as issues resolve or you may be celebrating some achievement. As with any Eclipse, something is being 'eclipsed' out to make way for this high point to occur so release bad habits, illness, outworn looks, wardrobe, or any other form of personal identity to achieve the reinvention of you!
Mercury Retrogrades on the 21st and will take you on a backtracking journey over the next 3 plus weeks regarding financial matters, divorce, sex, reproductive matters, or control issues. You can revisit people or situations, see what you wish to rework and what you are ready to release. Note that agreements, sales, writing, talks, meetings, offers, and decisions around these themes are in a temporary direction so take your time sifting through but try to hold off on new moves until Mercury goes Direct November 10th.
The Sun will move into the same territory Mercury is Retrograding in on the 23rd and will travel through Scorpio for the next 30 days so you will be getting more personally or physically involved in the sex life, reproductive matters, financial situation, divorce, or third party situations. Do your part to take the lead and tend to being present in the situation. Again, your name or body is key here.
Pluto and Chiron open up together on the 28th which is a day of deep transformation and potential to expose wounds for healing.
Your goals, status, career, involvement with authority figures, hospitals, the arts, spiritual practices, private time for romance, research, investigations, or retreat will be where this springs up for you. Work on evolving the situation. For a more in-depth look at your unique patterns in play you can schedule a private reading with Zoe by emailing for rates and dates at zoemoonastrology@gmail.com
TAURUS:
October is going to be intense, there's no two ways about it, and for your sign it begins with the NEW MOON on the 4th that kicks off your best 2 week window to move ahead on work projects, job interviews or auditions, ventures with co-workers, hiring people to help, dealing with paperwork, getting your health taken care of or set in a new direction, or doing something new for pets. This New Moon is part of a Grand Cross which means it will be doubly powerful and key in with lots going on behind the scenes, travel, legal matters, educational pursuits, agreements, sales, writing, local activities, vehicles, electronics, media, weddings, and being of service to others.
Saturn and Uranus adjust to each other on the 5th which means the serious commitments, ambitions, limits, endings, or responsibilities that you have with partners, attorneys, agents, clients, specialists, opponents, or other key people will meet with a turn in the road involving hospitals, retreat, research, investigations, artistic projects, film, music, spiritual pursuits, romantic getaways, or development. Find ways to adapt to the needs with the relationships and the need for freeing yourself up for interests in the other arenas.
Venus moves into Sagittarius on the 7th which kicks off a new love/money cycle that will carry you through to Oct 7th. This will smooth things out or help you attract more easily in areas of sexual interests, intimacy, reproductive needs, divorce, or the financial areas of loans, inheritance, bankruptcy, insurance, taxes, investments, settlements, commissions, alimony, child support, or a partner's money. There should be ways to find enjoyment through these realms or to get your income or love life flowing through what you do here. As far as Venus being your ruler, this shift should help lighten the intensity of the last month and raise you into a more adventurous vibe. The only exception to the rule will fall on the 10th and 16th when you may have something going on with a friend, group, the internet, astrology, charities, parties, gatherings, social networking, or aspirations that in some way cloud the situation.
Mars moves into new territory on the 15th and this new placement should light a fire under you! Mars is taking up residence in your house of true love, creative projects, recreation, and children so things will heat up with more passion and motivational force over the weeks ahead. In a relationship? You will be able to get things going. Single? The action is amping up. This transit will help you push creative projects out the door and have some physical fun as well. The only thing to watch out for is the fighting aspect of Mars and getting too argumentative with loved ones or in the name of your creative direction. Note that 2 days stand out, the 19th and 31st, when you and another person are going to get involved over these creative, love, children, or recreational inspirations to shine the passion, rev things up or fight for what you need. To this end, whatever comes up on the 19th expect it to hit an even higher note on the 31st.
The FULL MOON on the 18th is a LUNAR ECLIPSE and a major peak for you in the 12th house. This means that something is hitting a high point with a time of retreat or behind the scenes activity, with research, investigations, development, or isolation, with hospitals, prisons or other institutions, with a romantic getaway, clandestine romance or Karmic relationship, with film, music, art, dance, meditation, yoga, poetry, magic, or psychic interests, with addictions or bad habits, or a period of imagination or inspiration. Expect that some part of what has been going on will 'eclipse' out as you reach this summit, celebrate, achieve, wrap things up, or mark endings.
Mercury Retrogrades on the 21st and will backtrack through November 10th. You have been feeling the Shadow of this Retrograde since the 1st so you may have an idea already about what is going to slow down or reappear from the past, what needs reworking, revising, releasing, or reclaiming, in the area of romantic partners, business partners, agents, attorneys, specialists, clients, opponents, competitors, or other significant relationships. It is important to listen to what is coming back around and look at any agreements, talks, meetings, sales, or decisions involved to see if you want to revamp something here or if there is more to purge or settle. It's ok to sign agreements or make purchases if involved with past people here but better to hold off for brand new opportunities until after the Retrograde is over if you can wait without harming the situation. The Sun will pour into this realm on the 23rd and travel here for the next 30 days so you are about to get very busy with at least one of these people and it will involve your physical presence, identity, image, body, name, or brand.
The last aspect of the month involves Pluto and Chiron as they open up an opportunity to look at wounds and powerful changes or healing. This will play out over a friend, group, the internet, astrology, charities, a social gathering, aspiration, and something legal, travel, educational, wedding, media, or belief oriented. It may be that there is something financial, sexual or divorce related at the core of this wound and an opportunity to transform it now if you are willing.

GEMINI:
Ready, set, go!!! That is what is about to happen for you Gemini, when it comes to your love life, creative projects, recreational opportunities, and children. This starts on the 4th with a powerful NEW MOON that is opening up 2 strong weeks for you to initiate fresh starts towards any of these themes. The thing that is so amazing about this particular new beginning is that it intertwines with a Grand Cross so it is set to be that much more active and dynamic. Expect your own aspirations and any social interests to be drawn into this as well as some financial or value energy to swirl around it, possibly setting off sexual chemistry or issues, divorce, possessions, purchases, and money to set the stage.
There is a large adjustment required on the 5th as the serious energy around work, organization, health, pets, paperwork, hired help, co-workers, and services, comes up against something sudden, freeing or changing involving aspirations, friends, groups, the internet, astrology, charities, parties, gatherings, or personal freedom. It's a background shift in your life but one you may feel as you see things shifting a bit and need to adapt. Pay attention to these contingencies because it will be in this work, health, paperwork, and pet arena that the Mercury Retrograde will take you backtracking up ahead.
Venus kicks off a new love/money cycle on the 7th by moving into your key relationship zone. Wowza! This is about helping you attract the love or money through romantic partners, business partners, agents, attorneys, specialists, dealing with the competitors, or opponents. This trend takes you through the rest of this month so expect things to smooth out and for women to benefit your aims here, but most of all for you to find that it is through relationship that the best things are flowering now. There will be 2 days that may challenge, the 10th and 16th, when some issue over goals, career, a boss, parent, judge, or other authority figure, your reputation, or status, will come front and center. This is about wounds and healing so take it easy on how you approach people now.
Mars is also moving into a new energy field this month, entering Virgo on the 15th and amping up what is going on at home, with real estate deals, family, a parent, roommates, moves, or renovations. This kicks off a period when you will have lots more going on here, you will be motivated or more passionate, or dealing with a fight or anger issues, surgery or heat. The details matter and you should have plenty of energy to make things happen here now. 2 days stand out for you that will involve another person over these matters, they arrive on the 19th and 31st. These days will bring up anything involving goals, career, parents, the boss, judge, or other authority figure, and again what is going on with the home, move, real estate, family, parent, renovation, or roommate. It's important to focus in on healing here.
The FULL MOON on the 18th is a massive energy high point because not only is it Full Moon energy peaking but a LUNAR ECLIPSE! This means things are wrapping up, ending, being achieved, coming through or celebrated with friends, groups, aspirations, social gatherings, the internet, astrology, charities, your freedom, original ideas, inventions, causes, or visionary direction. You can look back at September 20th for clues as to what is peaking now.
Mercury entered his shadow on the 1st of the month and things started to slow down or you began experiencing some deja vu or past moments. Now, on the 21st Mercury Retrogrades. This will last until November 10th and take you back over past work opportunities or issues, paperwork, health issues or interests, moments with past co-workers, people you have hired, or pet needs. This is your chance to rework, revise, reclaim, or release so look at old agreements, sales, meetings, talks, or decisions regarding these themes and let yourself experience any potential here so you are clear about what goes forward and what stays behind. It's ok to sign agreements if they come through past people or opportunities during this phase but better to hold off on new ones if you can do so without losing out on the opportunity. Same goes with electronics and mechanical devises and purchase here. The Sun follows into this territory on the 23rd and will spend 30 days here so you can expect to be pouring more of your own personal or physical energy into these topics and possibly tying in your name, identity, image, body, or brand.
The last major aspect this month is about upheaval, rebirth, wounds, healing, and the opportunity to evolve things in a better way. This will play out over sex, divorce, a financial situation, death, birth, or third party situation, and the goal, career, parent, boss, or other authority figure. This is about being vulnerable and powerful at the same time and transforming the situation. For a more in-depth look at your unique patterns in play you can schedule a private reading with Zoe by emailing for rates and dates at zoemoonastrology@gmail.com
CANCER:
October is not for sissies and by that I mean it is going to be uber active and dynamic, and for you it starts on the 4th with a NEW MOON in your home and family arena. This is a powerful 2 week window opening up when you can take steps to give yourself a fresh start by what you do in the home, with real estate deals, moves, renovations, remodels, family, parents, roommates, your history, or security needs. Not only is this about New Moon energy propelling you forward but this particular Moon is combining with a Grand Cross that will magnify it and thread in goals, career, parents, bosses, partners, agents, attorneys, specialists, clients, competitors, and your own participation. It's time to get it in gear, launch new initiatives and take things to the next level.
A big adjustment moves into place by the 5th that will mean serious commitments or endings involving your love life, kids, creative projects, or recreational interests, adjusting to sudden changes, inspirations or directions involving goals, career, parents, bosses, judges, or other authority figures. Pay attention to what comes up now regarding that lover, kid, creative project, or need for fun since the upcoming Mercury Retrograde is bound to take you back over this territory.
Venus enters a new love/money cycle on the 7th and will carry you through in this new field the rest of the month. This is opening up your potential to attract the love or money you need or to smooth things over through what you do on the job, in search of work, with co-workers or people you hire, paperwork, health pursuits, and pets. You should get more enjoyment out of these areas now and women may benefit your aims here. There are 2 days that may bring up challenges or more inspiration and they fall on the 10th and 16th when a trip or visitor, legal matter, wedding, educational pursuit, media, marketing or publishing deal, or something religious or political will come into play.
Mars also enters new territory on the 15th and here he is going to bring more action, passion and fighting spirit to your talks, ideas, offers, sales, agreements, writing, short trips, local activities, siblings, neighbors, dealings with vehicles or electronics, and decisions. It's a fired up idea time when words flow with conviction and it should help you knock down some doors and move forward. Critical thinking and details will aid you. There are 2 days that stand out when you will be involved with someone else over some of this and they fall on the 19th and 31st. Expect that any of those legal, travel, educational, media, marketing, publishing, wedding, or religious needs to be what it's about. Trust your intuition and the events playing out as there is something somewhat meant to be occurring.
The FULL MOON on the 18th is a major culmination around your career, a personal goal, achievement, boss, parent, judge, or other authority figure, your status, reputation, fame, or ambitions. This is when things peak in celebrations, come through, wrap up, or end. It is so powerful because it is a LUNAR ECLIPSE so something is being 'eclipsed' out as you reach this summit.
Mercury entered his shadow on the 1st so you may have began to feel the slow downs or mix-ups from the beginning of the month but now on the 21st Mercury Retrogrades and you are officially in this backtracking cycle between now and November 10th. This Retrograde is taking you back over past love interests or issues, topics involving children, creative projects, or recreational needs. You want to take the time to revisit the past, rework, revise, reclaim, or release by looking at talks, meetings, agreements, sales, offers, proposals, or decisions in these areas or with these people. It's ok to make agreements or purchase mechanical or electronic gear associated with these past matters during the cycle but better to hold off on important decisions with new people or opportunities until afterward if you can wait without hurting your chances. The Sun follows into this zone on the 23rd and will remain here for the next 30 days so you will be more physically and personally involved in your love life, with lovers, kids, creative ventures, and fun. This may involve your name, brand, identity, or image as well.
There is one last big aspect on the 28th between Pluto and Chiron so you will have an opportunity to look at any wounds and healing around legal matters, travel, education, media, marketing, publishing, weddings, or beliefs and then evolve the situation or transform it through partners, reps, specialists, clients, dealing with opponents, or other key relationships. It's a deep combination that allows you to embrace your inner guru.

LEO:
October packs a big bang for you and it begins with the NEW MOON on the 4th and a fresh new start through offers, agreements, sales, writing, meetings, talks, pitches, speaking roles, proposals, ideas, local action, short trips, siblings, neighbors, vehicles, moves, electronics, and decisions. Not only do you have the entire next 2 weeks to put things into motion here but you should know that this particular New Moon is amped up higher due to a Grand Cross interwoven in the momentum. This will put in any legal, travel, educational, media, marketing, or wedding plans, the work, health, paperwork, or pet situation, and any institutions, work behind the scenes, artistic, spiritual or romantic getaway, research, or development. Put things in motion!
There is an immediate adjustment on the 5th that involves getting serious about home, moves, real estate deals, renovations, family, parents, or roommates, looking at commitments, responsibilities, limits, losses, endings, or ambitions here, and then looking at what is changing or taking a new direction in legal, travel, educational, wedding, or media arenas. Give and take, and note what is coming up since the Mercury Retrograde in a few weeks will take you back over some of this territory.
Venus enters a new love/money cycle on the 7th and for you this spells good news for your love life, lover, children, creative projects, and recreational interests. The weeks ahead should smooth out in these areas and you will find you can attract love or money to these areas more easily. There are 2 days where challenges or a more amped up motivation will occur in at least one of these areas and they fall on the 10th and 16th. On these days you will need to deal with any wounds, healing, inspiration, or confusion around sex, divorce, reproduction, triangles, power, control, death, birth, or a big financial matter.
Mars is also moving into new energy on the 15th and this is due to light a fire under making money, purchases or possessions. Mars will give you more drive and determination to make things happen here now and you may feel more passionate about what you are doing or have to fight for something you want here. A younger male may spur you on or amp it up and if you've felt stuck at all this transit will get things going. There are 2 days of note when you will be involved with someone else over these subjects and they arrive on the 19th and 31st. At this time the joint finances or outside resources will be important or the divorce or sex life will play into what is going on.
The FULL MOON on the 18th is a LUNAR ECLIPSE and therefore much more powerful than your typical peak each month. This one is due to bring a climax around a legal matter, trip, visit, foreign interest, educational pursuit, wedding, media, marketing or publishing deal, religious interest, or political need. Something will be 'eclipsed' out as you celebrate the high point, achieve your ends, things come through, you wrap them up, or mark endings here. Look back to September 20th for clues as to what this will be about now.
Mercury entered his shadow on the 1st so you may have noticed that things have been slowing down or a bit whack when it comes to home, family, real estate deals, parents, roommates, moves, or renovations. Now on the 21st Mercury Retrogrades and between now and November 10th you will be backtracking and revising, reworking, reclaiming, or releasing in these areas. It's good to review past people, situations, opportunities, or issues and the agreements, sales, writing, meetings, offers, or decisions here. It's ok to sign agreements on past opportunities or ideas coming back around but better to hold off on new ones if you can wait without losing out. The same goes for electronics and mechanical purchases. The Sun moves into this territory on the 23rd and will travel here for 30 days so during this time you will definitely be more personally or physically involved in what is going on here.
The last big aspect this month arrives on the 28th when powerful changes or evolution comes through work, paperwork, health, or pet arenas and there is opportunity to look at wounds or healing around financial matters, sex life, death, birth, or divorce. Open up to transform the situation. For a more in-depth look at your unique patterns in play you can schedule a private reading with Zoe by emailing for rates and dates at zoemoonastrology@gmail.com
VIRGO:
October is starting off with a very powerful NEW MOON in your income, possessions and purchases sector. This opens up a strong 2 week window when you can launch new opportunities or take current ones to a new level. This particular New Moon is amped up even more than usual due to a Grand Cross in the mix that will add outside financial resources, intimate connections, creative potential, your love life, kids, friends, aspirations, inventions, groups, internet interests, charities, or visionary thinking into the fresh start.
There is an adjustment on the 5th that will ask that you get serious about meetings, agreements, sales, writing, speaking roles, brothers, sisters, moves, local activities, short trips, vehicles, electronics, or decisions, and make adjustments regarding the sex life, divorce or financial matter. Note what comes up now since you will get a repeat over it with the upcoming Mercury Retrograde.
Venus kicks off a new love/money cycle that starts on the 7th and will take you through the rest of the month. This is set to smooth things out and help you attract love or money more easily or enjoyably around home matters, moves, renovations, real estate deals, family, parents, or roommates. A woman may be pivotal in helping here and you should find that things are better now in these areas. There are 2 days that may challenge however and they arrive on the 10th and 16th. These 2 days will bring up any issues with partners, agents, attorneys, specialists, clients, competitors, or other key people.
Mars moves into new territory on the 15th where he is going to start lighting a fire within YOU! Hosting Mars in your own sign is like fueling up on energy drinks and being blessed with more mojo in the weeks ahead. This will help motivate you when it comes to your own needs, your body and getting more active, your image or brand and what you want to do about it, your name or identity and how passionate you are about these things or if you feel it's time to fight for something here. There are 2 days that stand out when you will be dealing with another person in this and they arrive on the 19th and 31st. Note that these will be about what you do and something that will either open up healing of wounds and inspire or be painful and disillusioning, note what kind of person you are dealing with and keep a clear mind over what you are doing.
The FULL MOON on the 18th is 3 times more powerful due to it being a LUNAR ECLIPSE as well! This means a very big peak arrives now involving your loans, investments, insurance, taxes, commissions, settlements, inheritance, bankruptcy, alimony, child support, partner's money, divorce, death, birth, or sex life. It is a time when something is 'eclipsed' out as you celebrate the high point or achievement, mark endings or wrap things up, see things come through or garner some recognition.
Mercury Retrogrades on the 21st and you will begin to backtrack over past agreements, decisions, writing projects, talks, meetings, short trips, neighborhood activities, sibling or neighbor matters, electronic or vehicle needs, and ideas. The shadow period began on the 1st so you may have been mulling some of this over all month but now you are ready to rework, revise, reclaim, or release in these areas and you have until November 10th to figure it out. It's ok to sign agreements or purchase electronics or mechanical items if they are tied into this past but better to hold off on new ones during this period if you can without hurting your opportunities. The Sun follows into this territory on the 23rd for 30 days so you will be more personally and physically involved here and possibly find your name, identity, image, body, or brand is as well.
The last big aspect this month involves Pluto and Chiron on the 28th when any wounds and healing will awaken involving partners, reps, clients, opponents, competitors, or specialists, and powerful transformation can occur involving lovers, kids, creative projects, or recreational pursuits. Look for ways to evolve the situation.

LIBRA:
October kicks off with a fresh new beginning for you on a personal or physical level. This means that from the NEW MOON on the 4th you have 2 powerful weeks to put things into play that will either lead you towards new goals, help you elevate your identity or brand, reinvent who you are, get your body in shape or in better health, introduce a new name into the mix, or spruce up your image in some interesting way. Eyes are on you so make it count.
There is a big outer adjustment going on in your life now that peaks on the 5th and asks for ways to adapt around income, possessions, purchases and the partner, agent, attorney, clients, specialist, competitors, or other key players. This may come at you out of the blue or you may feel like shaking things up and getting real about some shift in the paradigm.
Your ruler, Venus, moves into new territory on the 7th so you will likely feel this on a somewhat personal level. In her new energy field you will be pursuing love or money through more local activities or in nearby places, through writing, sales, agreements, offers, connected to siblings, neighbors, vehicles, electronics, moves, ideas, and decisions. Her presence here will smooth things out and help them flow more easily in these realms and you may find you are attracting what you need more easily here or that women in particular are more helpful to your aims. There are 2 days where you may have an issue though and they arrive on the 10th and 16th. On these days you will need to deal with issues pertaining to work, paperwork, co-workers, people you hire, health concerns, or animals.
Mars enters a new energy field as well this month, moving into Virgo on the 15th and bringing more action, passion and anger focus behind closed doors for you. Here Mars will strive to make things happen in film, music, art, spiritual practices, magical arenas, psychic pursuits, hospitals, dealing with addictions, clandestine romances, romantic getaways, research, investigations, strategies, with the imagination, fantasy, and development. Expect this to really amp up on the 19th and 31st with some other person over work, health, animals, or paperwork. Be willing to heal wounds.
The FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE arrives on the 18th, think back to September 20th for clues about what is going to culminate in a BIG way now! This is about bringing an achievement, celebration or ending around a significant relationship. Look to high points with romantic or business partners, agents, attorneys, specialists, clients, competitors, opponents, managers, producers, advocates, and others. Something comes through, wraps up, is 'eclipsed' out and hits it's peak.
Mercury Retrogrades on the 21st and begins to take you back over past territory for revisions, releasing or reclaiming in the areas of income, possessions, gifts, purchases, what you build, or feelings of value. This backtracking energy continues through November 10th and gives you a chance to rethink things, slow down, tend to the shared facets of the situation and how you wish to go deeper or transform things. Past people, situations, issues, or opportunities come back around to see if you want to carry forward in some way. It's not great to sign documents or purchase electronics or mechanical things during this period if they are new to the time frame but if they are coming back around for a second chance you are ok to do so. The Sun follows Mercury into this territory on the 23rd and will travel through Scorpio now for the next 30 days. This means you will be pouring more personal and physical energy into making money, dealing with possessions or making purchases. You may tie in your name, identity, brand, or image to make things move ahead and it will be your leadership that pays off.
The last major aspect of the month arrives on the 28th as Pluto and Chiron dance together. This is about an opportunity for powerful change involving the home, family, roommate, move, renovation, real estate deal, or security need and opening up the wounds for healing involving work, organization, cleaning out, paperwork, health pursuits, or animals. It's time to evolve. For a more in-depth look at your unique patterns in play you can schedule a private reading with Zoe by emailing for rates and dates at zoemoonastrology@gmail.com
SCORPIO:
The NEW MOON in the mystical, Karmic part of your chart arrives on the 4th of October and sends you out into new territory over the following 2 weeks in ways you may not be able to imagine when the month begins. This is a period when the hands of Fate are in somewhat more control and when trusting your intuition and the signs along the road can pay off. Look for ways to open up new potential or take things to the next level in film, music or art, with spiritual practices, magic or psychic interests, through hospitals, prisons or retreats, in dealing with addictions, bad habits or secrets, through strategies, research or development, with clandestine romance or romantic getaways, by utilizing the imagination or fantasy life, pulling back and resting, daydreaming or recuperating, and bringing the messages of your dreams out into the world.
There is a big background adjustment shifting things a bit in your world that perfects on the 5th.

Give and take.
Venus moves into the higher minded arena on the 7th where she will tour in the weeks ahead and begin to smooth things out for you around making money, dealing with possessions, the gifts exchanged, purchases made, what you are building upon, and your sense of value.

There are 2 days this month that may challenge however or at the least will push you a bit harder over these themes and they arrive on the 10th and 16th.

Your co-ruler, Mars, moves into new territory as well this month, entering Virgo on the 15th and amping things up for you in the weeks ahead with friends, group activities, what you do online, your interests in astrology, charities, causes, inventions, freedom, and aspirations. Here Mars will light a fire and get you more active, he will motivate making things happen, stir passions and lend a fighting spirit or help you face anger issues. 2 days in particular stand out when you will be one-on-one with someone over this dynamic energy and they are the 19th and 31st. On these days what goes on with the other person will involve creative projects, fun, kids, or love so seek balance as you push things through.
The FULL MOON LUNAR ECLIPSE arrives on the 18th as things hit a high point for you on the job, with the pursuit of work, with co-workers, people you hire, or the paperwork, in any health related needs, or over the animals. Think back to what occurred on the 20th of September for clues as to what culminates now. This is about things coming through, wrapping up, being achieved, celebrated, or ending in these areas. Because Eclipses have a 3 times more powerful affect you may feel this within 5 days before the date or up to 5 days after. Expect something to be 'eclipsed' out to make way for this high point.
Mercury Retrogrades in your sign on the 21st and will continue in this backwards motion through November 10th. This is about you slowing down and going back over choices, offers, writing, decisions, agreements, sales, and ideas that in some way affect you or revolve around your name, identity, brand, image, personal goals, or body. Review, rework, revise, release, or reclaim now. You are ok to sign documents or purchase electronics or mechanical things if they involve something from the past coming back around but are advised to try to hold off on brand new opportunities arising now until after the 10th of November if you can wait without hurting the situation. If you must sign on new matters know something will change up ahead.
The Sun moves into your sign on the 23rd and will tour here for the next 30 days which adds emphasis to the period and helps you to pour more personal and physical energy into yourself, your body, image, brand, identity, name, or personal goals.

The last major aspect this month arrives on the 28th between Chiron and Pluto. This brings up any wounds and healing involving creative projects, kids, love, lovers, or recreational pursuits and opens up a door to some powerful change and evolution around offers, agreements, proposals, ideas, talks, meetings, writing, sales, and decisions in the mix. With Pluto involved these will likely focus in on financial aspects, sex, reproduction, death, birth, or divorce and how things are shared and empowered.
