October is Upon Us!
Along with the week’s Daily posts below, take time to watch these videos that Jennie and I made about the Month of October. The first one is about general information about the astrology of the month, and the second provides the horoscopes, giving specific information for each sign. Watch for your rising and sun signs.

Our focus in the 2nd video is on the final third of the month, from October 20 to 29, when Mercury and Mars come together in Scorpio to form a flowing grand trine in water signs with Saturn and Jupiter . We explore what it means to anchor yourself emotionally during this powerful, intuitive time, as well as how to move from Libra’s weighing of options into Scorpio’s intensity and clarity. This is a time of emotional sensitivity. Allow yourself to sink into it.
FOLLOW THROUGH: Monday, September 29, 2025
The Moon enters Capricorn at 5:55 am EDT, setting a steadfast and serious tone to the day. This Moon is focused and direct, favoring tasks with structure and clear outcomes. If something needs your most ambitious, hard-working attention, address it today. Don’t wait for ideal conditions.
Today also brings us to the First Quarter Moon, which mirrors the Capricorn Moon. This marks the time to act on the pivot point that the solar eclipse exposed on September 21st. Consider how and where you were able to see a way to release too high expectations for yourself or others. Now is the time to commit to what came up and take a concrete step forward. Don’t overthink it. Just take the next step in front of you.
- What needs to be done today that supports something you saw clearly last week?
- Where are you wasting time that could be better spent?
- What can you finish that would take pressure off the rest of your week?
GET TO THE ROOT OF IT: Tuesday, September 30, 2025
This is a clear and direct day. Pay attention. The Moon remains in Capricorn throughout the day. Focus on what’s working and pay close attention to what is not. If something in your business or personal life continues to take more time or energy than it’s worth, take that as a clear signal. Don’t patch up what needs to be broken down or replaced. If the structure isn’t solid, no amount of managing will fix it. Capricorn doesn’t deal in excuses.
- What are you maintaining that no longer matters?
- Where is your effort going with no real return?
- What needs to be ended so something better can begin?
KEEP YOURSELF IN CHECK: Wednesday, October 1, 2025
The Moon stays in Capricorn through the bulk of the day, keeping your focus on what still needs to get done. Handle loose ends and make steady progress toward your accomplishments while this focus holds.
At 3:52 p.m. EDT, the Moon enters Aquarius. This changes the emotional tone from hard working to highly intellectual. You’re more likely to look at things from a more expansive perspective in a search for clarity.
At 4:58 p.m. EDT, Mercury squares Jupiter. This can lead to overpromising and overexplaining. You may feel sure of something without thinking it through or reading the fine print. If you find yourself talking in circles or trying to convince someone (or yourself), stop and check the facts. This aspect can bring insight, but only if you slow down long enough to double-check yourself. In terms of what you hear from others, take it with a grain of salt.
- Are you exaggerating to make a point? Are you clear on the facts?
- Are you saying something because it’s true, or because it sounds good?
- Where could a little distance help you see more clearly?
CLEAR HEAD – STEADY FOCUS: Thursday, October 2, 2025
The Moon stays in Aquarius all day, keeping emotions level as sharp thinking takes the lead. This is a good day for planning and problem-solving, a time to handle decisions that require a cool head and no drama. Anything that needs a logical approach will benifit from the cool intelectual feel of today.
The Moon trines the Sun early in the day, with both in Air signs. That brings mental clarity and flow. It’s easier to say what you mean without getting stuck in how someone may respond or if you are saying it in the proper way. If you’ve been holding back from a conversation, this gives you a clean opening. Don’t overthink it, just say what needs saying.
- What needs a direct conversation?
- What plan or relationship could benefit from an honest check-in today?
- Is there a better way to say what you’ve been trying to express?
PREPARE FOR A DREAMY WEEKEND AHEAD: Friday, October 3, 2025
With the Moon still in Aquarius, most of the day runs on highly intellectual energy, which keeps our emotions light but our thinking broad. When the Moon is in Aquarius, we have time to step back from our emotions and experience a wide perspective and understanding of our lives and circumstances.
At 10:06 pm EDT, the Moon enters Pisces. This closes the day on a sensitive note. If your mind’s been highly active all day, this will allow you to rest and prepare for a dreamy, creative weekend ahead. Sweet dreams tonight. Let your body rest, and let your thoughts go wherever they need to.
- What have you learned today?
- What would help you shift out of your head and into deep rest this evening?
- How can you set the tone for a quieter, more creative weekend?
NOTHING TO PROVE: Saturday, October 4, 2025
The Moon moves through Pisces all day, softening the pace of our lives and loosening the structure. This isn’t a day for tight plans or sharp focus. If you try to push through and focus on accomplishment, you’ll likely miss the best use of the day. Let today unfold at its own pace. Pay attention to what calls to you quietly.
When the Moon is in Pisces, sensitivity is heightened and boundaries are blurred. You may feel more in tune with people around you, and more easily drained by those connections. Make room for resting and time alone. Pull back from plans if you need to. This is a day best built on rest, music, wandering thoughts, and doing one thing at a time without expectations. You don’t need a reason to slow down. Just notice what your body and mind are asking for and respond willingly.
- Can you honor your need for quiet today?
- What would change if you stopped reaching for accomplishment today?
- What can you enjoy more by doing less?
SOFT FOCUS SEEKS CLARITY: Sunday, October 5, 2025
The Moon remains in Pisces, keeping the day slow and a little out of focus. You may float through tasks, drift off mid-thought, or lose track of time entirely. That’s just as it should be. This kind of day asks you to engage in imagination, sensitivity, and rest. There are no boxes to check, and no to-do list is necessary.
At 8:30 pm EDT, the Moon meets Saturn. The vagueness of the day gets some definition. You may feel the weight of something you’ve been avoiding or the need to take emotional responsibility for where things stand. Allow it to offer clarity as the week comes to a close. Keep the day soft and the evening honest. Both are necessary.
- Where do you need to rest without checking out?
- What would help you end the week with more clarity?
- Are you ending the week in alignment with how you want to start the next one?
