OCTOBER HOROSCOPES

Deep dive into what the stars have in store for all our Earth, Air, Fire, and Water signs this month. Check out your sign of the times with our resident Good Witch, Lori Bell.

ARIES | March 21 - April 19

Since last October, your committed relationships have been under the spotlight, stirring some restlessness as the south node in Libra gently shook up your partnership house. This cosmic shift has encouraged you to let go of unfulfilling patterns. The upcoming Libra solar eclipse on October 2—the last for 18 years—offers a valuable opportunity to evaluate patterns and release what no longer serves you. This pivotal moment may bring endings: changed mindsets, concluded relationships, or shifted priorities. As you reflect, recognize that your old ways don’t fit. Embrace this chance to evolve, creating partnerships that align with your authentic self. Consider journaling or meditating to gain insights during this period.

TAURUS | April 20 - May 20

On October 2, the final Solar Eclipse in Libra for 18 years will occur. This celestial event is a wake-up call, shaking up your world of health, self-care, and routines. It's a time for endings, releasing negative patterns, and embracing change. Taurus, you are prone to indulge, but this can be problematic if it is detrimental to your health. View it as a sacred gift and prioritize your health, as your life is precious. The eclipse offers an opportunity for profound clearing, igniting a shift in habitual patterns related to well-being. Since last October, you've been reassessing this area of your life. Use this moment to go within, rest, meditate, and integrate the lessons learned.

GEMINI | May 21 - June 21

You've been refining your romance, pleasure, and creativity approach for the past year. The final New Moon Solar eclipse on Libra's South Node on October 2, which won't return for 18 years, marks significant endings and releases. Eclipses serve as catalysts for change, encouraging us to evolve. Since last July, you've been navigating a transformative period, becoming aware of ingrained patterns where you've overly acquiesced and neglected your needs in relationships and creative collaborations. This eclipse offers a final chance to break free from limitations and cultivate fulfilling connections.

CANCER

| June 22 - July 22

The October 3 South Nodal Solar Eclipse in Libra offers a final chance to heal family dynamics before an 18.5-year hiatus. With Venus in Scorpio as ruler, this rare event emphasizes resolving emotional issues within family relationships. It's a powerful moment for addressing unresolved conflicts. Embracing this opportunity can lead to profound healing. The eclipse's energy encourages confronting deep-seated patterns, paving the way for healthier interactions. It's about endings and letting go – a transformative opportunity for your family bonds. Don't miss this cosmic gift for renewal and emotional liberation.

LEO | July 23 - Aug. 22

October brings a potent Solar Eclipse in Libra on the 2nd, lighting up your 3rd house of communication. Since last October, you've been reflecting on how you've communicated with others—whether you've been overly charming or compromising to get your way. South Nodal eclipses signify endings; this is your last chance to break free from lingering patterns. Leo, you've mastered being direct while keeping your irresistible charm without manipulation! This eclipse marks a powerful ending and the start of a fresh mindset. Let go of all those negative thoughts and step confidently into genuine connections!

VIRGO | Aug. 23 - Sept. 22

Last October’s South Nodal eclipse in Libra triggered a financial awakening. You’ve reassessed how you communicate your financial needs in both business and personal relationships and reconsidered spending on what truly matters. Libra’s tendency to avoid confrontation made this challenging, but you’ve been learning to set clear boundaries and know your worth. The final South Nodal eclipse in Libra on October 2 signals a pivotal moment. It’s your last chance to release what no longer works, realign your financial priorities, and move forward with clarity.

LIBRA | Sept. 23 - Oct. 22

October is your month, Libra, as a transformative Solar Eclipse in your sign arrives on October 4. This South Nodal eclipse marks a time to release what's no longer serving you, making way for powerful new beginnings. Since last October, you've been on a profound journey of reclaiming your power and shedding outdated habits. Your desire for harmony sometimes leads to overcompromise, avoidance of confrontation, or people-pleasing at your own expense. Though challenging, this journey is a profound gift. With the last eclipse in Libra for 18 years, it's time to stop dimming your light and seize your true potential.

SCORPIO | Oct. 23 - Nov. 21

Happy Birthday! The cosmos is shining brightly on you as the last South Nodal Eclipse in Libra arrives on October 2, and it won't return for another 18.5 years! This powerful event brings endings and releases, setting the stage for profound transformation. Since last October, these eclipses have been igniting your 12th house, unveiling hidden emotional hurts and self-sabotaging patterns. With this eclipse, the universe offers you a chance to cleanse your psychic closet of anything holding you back. Venus in Scorpio, ruling this eclipse, intensifies its energy, paving the way for profound, meaningful change. Eclipses are ultimate pattern-breakers and liberators, so seize this moment to free yourself and embrace an exciting new chapter!

SAGITTARIUS | Nov. 22 - Dec. 21

You're always up for an adventure, and October brings the final South Nodal Solar Eclipse in Libra on the 2nd, igniting your house of friendships. This powerful eclipse signifies endings and releases, urging you to reflect on where you've compromised too much or neglected your own needs. Since last October, you’ve been redefining how you relate to others, learning to speak up instead of over-acquiescing. As the last South Nodal Eclipse in Libra for 18.5 years, embrace this chance for release; while some friendships may end, exciting new connections await you on the horizon!

CAPRICORN | Dec. 22 - Jan. 19

Since last October's first South Nodal Solar Eclipse in Libra, your career has transformed profoundly. The final eclipse on October 2 marks a significant shift in your priorities and how you relate to others. This eclipse invites you to let go of past identities, expectations, and outdated ways of relating. While you've always sought harmony and valued work relationships, you may have often put yourself last amid compromise. It is the last Libra eclipse for 18.5 years—it is about endings, ways of relating, releasing ingrained patterns, or ending a job. Then, you can move forward and unlock your unlimited potential. Embrace this moment and step into your true power!

AQUARIUS

| Jan. 20 - Feb. 18

A year ago, the South Nodal eclipse in Libra sparked your pursuit of wisdom, inspiring journeys through travel, education, and spiritual exploration. Your thirst for knowledge and development has become more profound. These eclipses act as cosmic guides, encouraging you to let go of old habits and explore new paths, offering deep insights and unexpected breakthroughs. The upcoming South Nodal solar eclipse in Libra on October 2, the last for 18.5 years, invites you to reflect on your relationships with mentors and long-held beliefs. It's time to release outdated ideas and influences, stepping confidently into a transformative journey of personal and spiritual discovery that promises to reshape your worldview.

PISCES | Feb. 19 - March 20

On October 2, a South Nodal Solar Eclipse in Libra—the last for a decade—will spotlight your finances and shared resources. Eclipses have the power to disrupt, urging us toward transformation if we are open to change. It is a South Nodal eclipse, which emphasizes endings and releases, offering insights for shifting entrenched habits related to money and relationships. Pisces, consider where you compromise, people-please, or avoid financial conflict. Since last October, you've been working to shed outdated patterns. Before you can move forward, let go and release old ways of relating to embrace exciting new possibilities.
