October Astrology reading for 2025

Early October – Integration After the Eclipse Season

October begins in a softer, contemplative tone as we continue to absorb the emotional and energetic shifts from September’s eclipses. There is a need to tidy inner worlds, recalibrate spiritual practices and quietly observe what has changed without rushing to define it.

Insight: Give yourself space to drift between reflection and subtle planning. Dreams, intuition and unspoken knowing guide the month’s first steps more than logic does.

5–7 October – Mercury Enters Libra: Seeking Harmony in Mind and Voice
Mercury’s move into Libra encourages diplomacy, balanced thoughts and a desire for fair conversation. Words become tools for peace rather than persuasion.

Insight: Speak gently and listen deeply. Repairing dialogue or restoring balance in relationships becomes easier when rooted in grace.

6–7 October – Full Moon in Aries (Hunter’s Moon)
A fiery Full Moon lights up themes of independence, self-worth and courage. This traditional Hunter’s Moon asks, what are you truly fighting for and is it still worth the effort?

Insight: Emotional clarity arrives through tension. Something may need releasing so that your energy is no longer wasted in places that offer no return.

Mid October – Venus in Virgo: Refined Affection and Care
Venus enters Virgo and love turns practical. Care is expressed through action, routine and service. Details matter more than declarations.

Insight: Acts of devotion speak louder than grand statements. Real connection is built through consistency, not performance.

Mid October – Jupiter Influence Grows: Expansion and Opportunity
Jupiter becomes louder in the sky narrative, waking dormant desires for purpose, success or renewal. Growth begins to feel possible again, but it requires belief.

Insight: The question is no longer “Can I?” but “Will I?” Trust the larger arc of your becoming. Small risks bring honest reward.

18–20 October – Sun Enters Scorpio: The Descent into Depth
As the Sun moves into Scorpio, the tone shifts. Superficiality fades and we are asked to sit with truth, power and emotional intensity. This is a month of soul work, not surface illusion.

Insight: Transformation begins the moment we stop pretending. Let honesty be your guide, especially with yourself.

22–24 October – New Moon in Scorpio
A potent New Moon opens a gateway for deep healing, renewal and inner commitment. Hidden feelings are acknowledged and shadows brought to light.

Insight: Set intentions for emotional sovereignty. This lunation is less about beginning something new and more about reclaiming what was lost within.

Late October – Mars in Scorpio: Focus, Willpower and Unapologetic Truth
Mars intensifies the Scorpionic current, sharpening instincts and fuelling determination. There is no tolerance for half-hearted efforts.

Insight: Move with precision. Acting from conviction rather than impulse will carry you further than force.

Late October – Rearranging Bonds and Alliances
The closing days test relationship dynamics, financial ties or unspoken contracts. What remains must be mutual. What falls away was never truly rooted.

Insight: True alignment cannot be negotiated. October helps you release entanglements that dilute your energy and draw closer to those who honour your becoming.

How October Feels Overall
October is a turning inward. Where September cracked open doors, October asks us to walk through them with courage. It carries the wisdom of endings and the promise of rebirth. This is not a loud month but a powerful one, built on truth, self-possession and emotional clarity. Trust what is resurfacing. Trust what is leaving. Trust the new vows being written within.
