As October unfolds, Sagittarius, it's time to reflect on significant life changes and embrace the romantic fortunes that Venus has in store for you. The previous month brought an eclipse that may have sparked tension with those close to you—be it housemates or family. This month, another eclipse occurs in Libra on Wednesday, October 2. Unlike last month's lunar eclipse, this solar eclipse aligns with the new moon phase, signaling fresh beginnings. Positioned in your 11th House of Friendship, this is an auspicious time for new connections. Keep an eye on casual acquaintances or colleagues that could evolve into close friendships, but remember that the intensity of eclipses may also cause existing friendships to feel the strain. Prioritize rest and self-care to navigate any potential drama.
On Wednesday, October 9, your ruling planet, Jupiter, will commence its retrograde motion in your romantic 7th House. This phase lasts until February and invites introspection regarding your romantic relationships. If you've recently distanced yourself from love, you might feel the urge to re-enter the dating scene. If you're in a fulfilling partnership, reflect on your contributions. Sometimes, Sagittarians can become so engrossed in work and creative pursuits that they overlook their personal lives.
Following Jupiter's retrograde, on Friday, October 11, the transformative planet Pluto will transition into direct motion within your 2nd House of Possessions. Although the job market may be uncertain, Pluto's direct movement here can facilitate improvements in your financial circumstances. This transit is significant beyond financial implications; Pluto initially entered Capricorn in 2008 and transitioned into Aquarius earlier this year. Its temporary return to Capricorn offers a chance to finalize unresolved matters from that era. Reflect on pivotal events from 2008 as this chapter concludes and new experiences await.
On Sunday, October 13, Mercury, the divine messenger, will enter your contemplative 12th House. This transition amplifies your intuitive capabilities, Sagittarius. Dedicate time for solitude to connect with your inner wisdom through practices like ancestral work, tarot reading, or meditation. Moreover, pay close attention to your dreams; consider maintaining a dream journal beside your bed for immediate recording upon waking.
A notably romantic and exhilarating day is expected on Thursday, October 17. Venus will enter Sagittarius, enhancing your allure significantly. If you're utilizing dating apps, seize this opportunity to engage. This day also features a full moon in Aries within your 5th House of Pleasure—a time filled with primal energy. For those currently dating, this alignment suggests heightened intimacy; however, like eclipses, full moons can also stir emotional turbulence.

As we approach Tuesday, October 22—the beginning of Scorpio season—prepare for Halloween festivities! Your dynamic fire energy will undoubtedly shine at costume gatherings, so expect a bustling social calendar ahead. During this period when the sun occupies your psychic 12th House, continue to receive intuitive messages while being mindful of potential emotional fatigue. Ensure you allocate sufficient time for rest amidst all festivities to prevent burnout.
Enjoy this vibrant month ahead, Sagittarius! We look forward to reconnecting in November. For more insights and updates, visit Starry Book.
