One is the loneliest number, so they say, so it’s lucky for you this month is focused on two. Granted, it may not be the easiest partnership, as there’s a difficult new moon on the 5th in your 7th house of partnerships. The new moon is opposed to Uranus in your own sign and squaring Pluto in your house of career. There seems to be a war going on between the needs of your partner and your career. You may be finding your personal and work demands are interfering with each other, or perhaps a business partner that once seemed solid is turning out to be a pain in your butt. These are tough aspects, and because you’re a cardinal sign, you’re in the thick of it. It bears mentioning you’re an old hat at this by now. Uranus has been tearing through your identity house since 2011, bringing lots of changes as you constantly re-invent yourself. Pluto has been transforming your career sector since 2008, making you push yourself there as well. Since June 2012, those planets have been tangled up in the same degrees, causing even more tension in these areas. The 10th house also rules your marriage sector, so you may have broken free of a marriage, or perhaps committed yourself to one. Better settle in with some popcorn, cause this show is sticking around until 2015. Although changes can be stressful, they are necessary for growth. Sure, it’s easy to stay at the same job and have the same weekend routine for 20 years, but is that really the life you want? You’re an Aries- a fire sign full of passion and energy- so I seriously doubt it. In fact, I think out of all the signs of the zodiac, you’re the most equipped to handle the Uranus/Pluto square. When life gets difficult, Aries doesn’t hide under the covers. Aries tackles a challenge head on- BRING IT ON WORLD- and comes out even stronger because of it. So keep that in mind if the waters get a little rough this month, especially if you’re an Aries at 11.5 degrees or born around April 5th. Specifically, watch out for October 13th, when the Sun in your partnership sector will square Neptune in your 12th house of closure. A secret may come out on this day or a partner may need you by their side. Venus moves into your 9th house on the 8th, indicating that a luxurious or romantic trip might be on the agenda. Usually this aspect is lovely, but unfortunately Mercury is going to try to spoil your fun. Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st, making for delays and breakdowns. Mercury rules your 3rd house of transportation, so you can see how this could mess up any travel plans. If you must travel, try to do so before the 21st. A great day would be the 17th- although it’s still a little closer to retrograde than I would like, Venus in your travel house will trine Uranus in your house this day, giving you divine aspects. Publishing projects or foreign clients will also prove beneficial on this day. Watch out for Oct 10th, when Venus will square Neptune in your 12th and something involving foreigners or publishing could go wrong. Mercury also rules your 6th house of work and health, so its retrograde may cause you to go back and review any issues in these areas as well. Saturn has been making its way through your 8th house of other people’s money since October 2012. You could be dealing with tax or credit card issues, or maybe money is just tight. Alternatively, you could be digging deep into your psyche or finding yourself going through a transformation of some kind. Mercury conjuncts Saturn in this sector twice this month- on the 8th and 30th- and again next month on November 26th. Health, communication, or transportation issues might hit a snag on these days, or you could have trouble with a client at work. Work seems to be a big emphasis for you this month, as your ruler Mars, moves into Virgo on the 16th. Last month’s friendly new moon may have seen you get a new job or work assignment, and with it, possibly a new housing situation. Mars ensures the work keeps coming all month and into next. On Halloween, Mars will trine Pluto in your house of career, so you’re sure to have some good news in this realm on this day. Your identity comes up for close inspection around October 18th, when an eclipse falls in your sign at 26 degrees. Luckily, this is a pretty easy eclipse. Something important to you will culminate, especially if you were born on this day.

October 2013 Horoscope- Sagittarius

Sagittarius, the Archer

It appears you’re wrapping up a home-related issue. Did the full moon last month complete a move? If so, your aspects continue to be good in the first few days of October. Mercury in your house of completions trines Neptune in your house of home on the 3rd, so you might be finishing up some last minute paperwork. A new moon on the 5th is proving to be quite a headache for all signs this month. For you, the new moon occurs in your house of hopes and dreams. It’s also the house that rules friendships. Normally this is an excellent place for a new moon- it’s full of happy light energy- anything is possible! Unfortunately, this moon is a real ball buster, opposing Uranus in your fifth house of love, children, and creativity, and squaring Pluto in your house of income. You might be suffering from unnecessary drama in a relationship or fighting about money with a friend, lover, or child. Sagittarius is known for being vocal with their opinions- perhaps you’re getting called out on your tendency to dominate conversations. Another option could be that you’re finally striking it out on your own-perhaps starting your business or deciding to write a novel- instead of falling back on job after job working for “the man.” New endeavors take time, so take any difficulties in stride. None of these are particularly new influences. Pluto entered your income realm in 2008 and has seen to it that you don’t get complacent in money matters. Your financial situation has probably gone through massive ebbs and flows. Additionally, Uranus has been stirring up all kinds of trouble in your 5th house since 2011. Perhaps you got unexpectedly pregnant, or have found yourself falling easily in and out of love. Since June 2012, these two planets have been in a screaming match with each other, bringing these matters to a climax. Luckily, Venus moves into your sign on the 8th, giving you charm in spades. On the 17th, Venus will trine Uranus in your 5th house of true love, making for a sexy fun time with a special beau. If you’re single, you might meet someone out of the blue. Coupled up Sags might be surprised by a romantic gesture from a loved one. This is also a great time to upgrade your wardrobe or appearance- just make sure you do it before Mercury goes retrograde on the 21st. Mercury will be in your 12th house, so you may have to go back and address a previous health or mental issue. Because Mercury rules your 7th and 10th houses, issues with your spouse or employer may come up. Watch out for the 13th, when the Sun in your friendship house will square Jupiter (your ruler) in your house of other people’s money. You may have problems with the financing of a long-term project, or perhaps you’ll have to lend money to a friend. The lunar eclipse on Oct 18th sees a love or creative project come to a climax. You might break it off with a honey or on the flip side, get engaged. Alternatively, you might discover or announce a pregnancy! Mars enters your career sector on the 16th, giving this area a boost of energy. You may get some press or be extra busy impressing VIPs. Watch out on the 20th, when Mars will oppose Neptune in your house of home. Mars stirs the pot, while Neptune casts a fog, so things could get confusing. You might be so busy at work that you’re overlooking things on the home front. The end of the month- Halloween specifically- brings good news, as Mars in your career house will trine Pluto in your 2nd house. You might end up with bonus or raise. Happy Halloween indeed! Just watch out for the Pluto/Uranus square  going on between your 2nd and 5th houses, an influence that will go into November (and ebb and flow until 2015!). You may argue with your love about money, or perhaps find that a child is costing you a lot of money.
