Horoscope for the week beginning October 6
By Michael O’Connor
Tip of the Week
Under the waning light of the Harvest Moon with the increasing darkness of autumn and against the splendorous backdrop of yellow, orange, red foliage amidst the evergreens, Jupiter enters Scorpio. Astrologically, Mercury hidden from sight within the light of the Sun forming a close conjunction to our star and Venus and Mars also in the close embrace of the ‘conjunction aspect’ (= same longitude) in Virgo, both by sign and constellation, this ingress activates a snapshot of these alignments.
Whenever Jupiter is involved the theme includes words such as big and expansive because it is larger than all the planets and moons in the solar system, combined! Scorpio is symbolic of shared wealth and resources, such as banks, investment firms, insurance agencies and research, investigation and undercover projects too which includes activities hidden from view and spy networks too. So, these areas of focus will undergo their next effective shift of deepening and increase, one way or another.
This week’s horoscope will shed some light on Jupiter in Scorpio for each sign.
Oct. 6-12
Aries (Mar. 21-Apr. 19)
Relationship themes remain front and centre. These are linked to your professional life as well as personal. Circumstances are prompting you to work hard to reach fair agreements and to achieve satisfying results. This trend will continue over the coming weeks and months even, but rewards for your efforts are indicated as well.
Taurus (Apr. 20-May 20)
A playful and romantic mood vies with more serious considerations. Negotiations requiring precise communications leaving little room for alternative interpretations are underway. You may feel that what is requested of you comes with pressures you do not like and ask more than you are willing or able to give. But, you are willing to try.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Fun, play, games and romance are in focus. Yet, circumstances are also pushing you to dig deep and this is requiring a lot of work. Creating a more wholesome and harmonious environment at home is featured. This will prove important in the coming weeks and months so you are probably wise to take it seriously.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Your confidence levels have been rising steadily and, with them, your energy levels as well. What you seek to create with this boon is an atmosphere of harmony and beauty, equality, and balance. The focus may be directed to environments but also to relationship flows. Meanwhile, new directions requiring commitments are on the horizon.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
A momentum is building and as it does so too is your confidence. Focus brings action, which brings inspiration and fresh insights and ideas. This is where commitment begins to produce magic. The ball is rolling now and this is your cue to roll with it, keep it rolling, and determine your mark and strike. Then repeat…
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22)
By now you should be in the completion stages of a foundation for the next phase. If not, you may have some catching up to do. Before the week is out, you will already begin to diversify. Yet, much of the efforts required will be up to you to fulfill, as in, independent action or initiative that reveals leadership by example.
Libra (Sep. 23-Oct. 22)
You have entered an important time of decision. The challenge to follow through is linked to courage. Fear of failure may be an issue. Such fears may be the consequence of too much thinking and not enough action. Focus on the preliminary returns coming in and/or the desire and prospects of profits, in any form, to summon inspiration and determination.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
This week stands to be eventful for you. It will prove to be the beginning of an expansive cycle that will continue for the better part of 2018. It involves risk. Yet you may be tested regarding the quality of your choices even more than usual. Be careful of ego inflation and focus on actions that reveal an authentic dedication of your spirit.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
Your public and professional life has been activated. This includes new tools and instruction. Your sense of individuality is emphasized and is linked to intellectually stimulating exchanges. Circumstances may push you to reach within more deeply to access reserves of confidence and faith over the coming months.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
A determined push that will affect both your professional and your personal life is underway. It includes returns for previous efforts and a steady process of clearing the old to make way for the new. This clearing could be about old relationship involvement and/or attitudes and behavior patterns that no longer align with your priorities.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Your professional life will undergo a big boost starting this week. This will serve to activate your ambitions and your drive. This trend will continue and grow steadily over the coming months. It will also dovetail with changes in your lifestyle and the need to overcome any fears that are holding you back.
Pisces (Feb. 19-Mar. 20)
A gift of visionary passion is coming your way. It may activate new philosophies and spiritual realizations and convictions. It may also manifest as inspirations to make some bold moves linked to some of your most intimate relationships and your lifestyle in general. Tune-in and use it wisely and you could achieve big returns in 2018.
