October 2020 Happenings🎃

October 2020 Happenings! ✨

Overall October is a very busy month, the tension for change has been building and will continue to build throughout October. There will be some opportunities for release and solutions the 2nd half of the month. With a lot of shifts, grounding techniques will be important this month. Enjoy the Halloween Blue Moon. ✨

October 1st: Full Moon in Aries-heal wounds of identity and of self. Restless moon.

October 2nd: Venus moves into Virgo: How we show love becomes tinged with the details, nice acts of service, wanting to be helpful, wanting to be perfect.

October 4th: Pluto goes Direct: Pluto stationing direct will bring things out of the shadows of our shadows and a chance to bring to light what we have been uncovering.

October 9th: Mars square Pluto: be careful of tension relating to power struggles. Try to keep anger and aggression in balance and be careful of others.

October 13th: Mercury goes retrograde: Time for Mercury shenanigans, re assess, re do, re think things.

October 16th: New Moon in Libra-tension for growth, ready for growth. There is a way to balance unpleasant things.

October 22nd: Sun moves into Scorpio: the month becomes tinged with intensity, deeper connections, seeing behind the curtains.

October 27th:Mercury renters Libra: Moving from Scorpio to Libra, we move into re balancing things.

October 27th: Venus moves into Libra: Venus is dignified here, how we show love is all about balance, grace, beauty, art. Intellectual connections.
