Horoscope for the week beginning October 28
By Michael O’Connor
Tip of the week
At this time when the veils are thin between dimensions the embodied and the disembodied, or what is usually referred to as dead, are invited to commune. When confronted with this great mystery and combined with morbidity associated with the frail physical body imaginations dive deep and soar high. Thus is the theme of Scorpio in the second decant, the 10 degrees of Scorpio overlaid with Pisces.
Of all the signs of the Zodiac, Pisces is the one that represents the veil between dimensions. The emphasis is upon altered perceptions, to see into the unusual and to bring forth imagination as means of adapting. Metamorphosis, transcendence, and ascension are keywords that belong to this mystical realm where purely empirical convictions cannot and dare not enter.
The New Moon in Scorpio on October 30, or what has come to be known as ‘Mat Night’, in some regions, and Devil’s Night in others, an informal intrusion inviting the expression of pranks and mischief on the eve of Halloween, or more officially, All Hallows’ Eve which, in turn, is traditionally meant to announce all All Hollows’ Day or what has also come to be known as All Souls’ Day, reveals a rather complex and mysterious little window in the year that is a direct reflection of the weave of Scorpio and Pisces.

Oct. 28 – Nov. Nov. 3
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
With each new day you are diving deeper. Soon you will enter the abysmal realm. This is the veiled dimension where the dearly departed dwell. Yet this is not the end, not for you or anyone else. It is a beginning. Although you will be resurrected and transformed, your soul essence eternal remains untouched.
Taurus (Apr 20 – May 21)
Where is the power you seek and so desire? Who has it? This is the question that lurks in the labyrinth of your mind. Questions answered produce paradoxes to further ponder. Having faith feels harder than wise words can wave away. Powerful changes continue to churn within. The silent voice says look higher not harder.
Gemini (May 21 – June 21)
Ambitions to achieve a new level of power are on the rise. You want to feel stronger, perhaps in your body and/or in your stance in the world. Healing old hurts includes shedding old skins of perception, especially. Perhaps this applies to your lifestyle and daily routine. The time has come to assert new commitments.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
A creative beat is weaving its way into your daily rhythm. Inspirations to make a few changes in your life may include purging the old and re-arranging things. Outer conditions have reached a stage of completion and something must give for the new to be introduced. Aim for a new state of harmony.
Leo (July 22 – Aug 23)
Deep within and at the core of your being something is happening. A deep change is brewing. It may feel like you are pregnant, at least metaphorically and with the hope of giving birth to new possibilities. Yet there is work to do. Get ready because you are about to get going. Aim for a period of intense creativity with high productivity.
Virgo (Aug 23 – Sep 22)
You are determined to see things more deeply and even right through them, if you can. Theories, schemes, plots, attitudes, strategies and so on will undergo a thorough examination. What is true or valid and working, or not? You yearn to make a fresh start. You may feel a bit afraid of the unknown, but an unchanging status quo may even be scarier.
Libra (Sep 22 – Oct 22)
Financial interests, concerns, and considerations are on your mind. Making investments of some kind are instigating research and investigation. You are determined to get to the bottom of things and make big changes as necessary. Renovations and even major moves are distinct possibilities. You need a realistic plan.
Scorpio (Oct 22 – Nov 21)
The time has come to take some key new initiatives. Choosing between a variety of inspiring possibilities is prompting a contemplative process. One way or another there will be a price, dues you must pay. Which will bring the highest yield and the least long-term expense or obligation is the main question to answer.
Sagittarius (Nov 21 – Dec 21)
Stepping back to reflect, rest and meditate upon things is the call now. Beyond what you think and believe you know, connecting with what you feel to be true is a priority. You still feel the urge to express your beliefs, hopes, and visions, especially those that reveal some of your core values and principles. The question is: how?
Capricorn (Dec 21 – Jan 19)
Who has the power and/or resources that you want and need? Investigations to this end have begun. As old commitments steadily dissolve, you may feel as though you no longer know what you want or what is true. However, you do feel determined to take action in areas that you do feel certain about and you will.
Aquarius (Jan 19 – Feb 19)
Asserting a new level and quality of power in your life has begun. It may still be in the planning stages, but you are determined. Pushing for favors and earned rewards or to be seen, heard and heeded regarding issues will become increasingly important. Strategy and solidarity are keywords to support your cause.
Pisces (Feb 19 – Mar 20)
The time has come to expand your point of view, to see a bigger picture. The impetus to do so comes from a driving urge to break through existing situations. Outer circumstances combined with inner inspirations to forge new possibilities are on your mind. Bring imagination and determination to the fore.
