We have a dizzying amount of activity in the heavens this month.
So many twists and turns.
It's a life changing month that is going to change the course of your destiny.
Hello, I'm Kari Samuels, your Intuitive Counselor and Happiness
Coach with your October forecast.
And there is a lot happening.
So I'm going to say this to you chronologically and weave this
together for you at the end, because there's a lot going on.
And Venus is very involved all month long.
Venus is the planet of love, beauty, attraction, and your relationships.
Including your relationship to your own self worth.
Very busy.
So this is a month of really tuning into your heart so you can
change your direction towards one that really lights you up Inside.
Relationships are a theme throughout the month because we are in
Libra season until the 23rd.
And then we move into Scorpio, which is also about relationships.
And of course with Venus being so prominent, your relationships are
a mirror for what is in your heart.
So pay attention to everything happening in your life, how people
are receiving you, relating to you, how you're relating to them,
things that are coming up for you.
Things are really going to be in bold relief right now.
The universe is really going to illustrate for you how you
value yourself, or how you don't.
It will be made clear your relationship with money, your career, the balance
in your life, because that's one of the things that Libra illustrates.
All of those things, the reciprocity in your relationship.
Are you giving more than you are receiving?
Pay attention to all of it.
We enter this month with SIX planets, retrograde plus
Chiron, the Wounded Healer.
And I know that you have been feeling those retrogrades throughout September,
and we've had Mercury retrograde.
So hallelujah!
Mercury goes direct on October 2nd!
Mercury's the planet of your mind, and so you've been changing your mind.
You've been reevaluating how you think about things as well as how you
feel about things, and you've been reevaluating your relationships while
Mercury was in Libra, now it's in Virgo.
So you're really discerning what is good for you and what isn't good for you.
So when Mercury goes direct, you'll be better signing those contracts
or making those big decisions that you may have been holding off on.
Yet, Mercury's going to be opposing Neptune, which kind of clouds
your vision a little bit, but it helps you connect to your dreams.
So make sure as you're planning and setting your intentions for the
future, that you're connecting with something that feels delightful for you.
Now, October 9th, we have a really powerful Full Moon in Aries.
Aries is the sign of the self.
It's confident, it's ruled by Mars.
Our Sun will be in Libra.
So that Aries - Libra dynamic...
Mars rules Aries, Venus rules Libra, Okay?
Venus is Libras ruling planet.
So this polarity will help illuminate for you where you have
been giving too much of yourself rather than putting yourself first.
Now, this full moon is conjunct Chrion, the Wounded Healer.
So this may make clear for you...
through some issues that you're feeling in your heart...
or things may come up for you, that point out some previous or current hurts
that you have that need to be healed.
And this moon is also opposite Venus.
Okay, so again, you're really going to be seeing what's in your heart,
what needs to be healed in your heart, and this is going to help you create
more balance and reciprocity in your relationships and put your needs first.
Now, October 22nd is another big day!
Venus is conjunct the Sun.
So this will bring light two matters of your heart, and this will help you express
yourself with more confidence, and this will really motivate you to share what's
in your heart more directly and boldly.
Now, right after that October 23rd - this is a big day.
Whew.
Okay, so October 23rd, Venus goes into Scorpio, the Sun goes into
Scorpio, and Saturn goes direct.
Now, actually Pluto is going direct on October 9th, the day
of that Full Moon and October 23.
Saturn is going direct.
Pluto is the Lord of the Underworld.
Saturn is the Lord of Karma.
So they've been retrograde and you've been really reevaluating power, money,
status, your place in the world.
These planets going direct are going to help you put some actions into
place to make your mark in the world.
And with that Scorpio energy, you're really going inside and transforming
and transmuting some deeper emotions that have held you back.
Scorpio is all about deepening your relationships as well.
So you want to bring people into your life more closely who are
going to nurture and support you.
And of course, let go of who isn't.
And this is really going to be highlighted on October 25th which
is a New Moon Eclipse in Scorpio.
Scorpio is already kind of intense.
Right?
New Moon eclipses really bing things to light and start new beginnings for you.
Oftentimes we have fateful new beginnings.
You can meet people who are going to change your life.
Your destiny can really change course during a New Moon Eclipse.
Now this one is activating our South Node in Scorpio.
The South Node of the Moon is related to karma.
Anything that you need to let go of yet is so familiar to you.
So things that are in our South Node are a real pull for us
because we've experienced them.
We've practiced these karmic behaviors, sometimes lifetime after lifetime.
So anything in our South Node needs to be released.
And this New Moony Eclipse is also conjunct Venus.
So again, we have everything that's bringing your awareness into your heart,
things that are important for you, and things that you need to let go of.
Because this moon, activating that South Node is telling you that you
need to let go of the people and places and the way you share your energy.
In ways that are no longer beneficial for you, even though there may be a
pull there for you, you must release.
Okay?
And I said this at the top of the year in my forecast.
As soon as I saw that our eclipses were in the Scorpio - Taurus access
and our South Node was in Scorpio, I knew there was going to be something
around having to change the way we share resources, money, power - around
fossil fuels, minerals, and just the way we rely on those for our economy.
Scorpio is shared resources, and anything that's beneath the surface.
And of course that is what manifested right?
So all this happening this year with having to change the countries
that we rely on around fossil fuels having to be less energy dependent.
And so that's what you're doing on a personal level too.
You 're examining who you share your resources with, how you
share your resources, that includes the energy of your heart.
The fuel of your life.
All of that needs to be redirected and really transformed
in a way that benefits you.
So around this time in the world, we will maybe see shocks to the stock market.
We're going to have some shocking events come to light around power, money, shared
resources, fossil fuels, all of that.
So just don't take too many risk right now around money.
And just understand this is what's happening in the world, and this is to get
us to change our values and how we invest.
And with our North Node in Taurus is about investing in ways that
are more beauty oriented and really taking care of Mother Earth.
So on a personal level, it's really a huge day, and that's not
all . This whole time, the 25th for two weeks is the eclipse season.
And things are really going to be brought to the light.
On October 31st, Mars is going retrograde in Gemini.
Mars is the warrior planet.
Gemini is how you communicate.
So this can be a war of the words, but it can also be around speaking
passionately and from the heart.
Mars is going to be in Gemini for an extraordinarily long time this
year because it's going retrograde into January of next year.
So we are all learning how the Warrior Planet wants to help
us with our communication.
I know this is a lot.
So I have three action steps that are going to help you
navigate this tumultuous terrain.
Now, your first action step is to USE YOUR WORDS WISELY.
That is one of the things Mars in Gemini is teaching you.
You want to make sure you are speaking from the heart, you
are speaking passionately.
And since there's going to be so much agitation in the air, so
much energy coming up for you.
So much emotion.
You want to take some time out before you speak.
Do not react, take time out.
Really feel into what you want to say and make sure you're not
too agitated when you do it.
Okay?
You want to use your words confidently, clearly, directly, and
express yourself from the heart.
That's really going to change how you experience your relationships,
and you want these changes to be for the better, right?
Okay, so use those words wisely.
Now, your second action step is to TAKE TIME AND SPACE FOR YOURSELF.
Do not overbook whatever you do.
So many unexpected changes are going to happen, and you are going to
have so many emotions to process.
You want to make sure you are creating that sacred space
for yourself to process that.
Write in a journal.
Take baths.
Go for walks in nature.
Do not overbook yourself.
Or make sure you're not spending too much time with other people.
Even though this is about relationships, you really want to process how you
feel every day in the moment, so you know how you are relating to
people is in your highest and best.
Please take that time and space for yourself.
Which brings us to action step number three.
Say YES to what lights your heart and NO to what no longer serves.
This is a pivot point.
This is a change in your destiny.
The universe is waking you up to all kinds of revelations about yourself
and other people, and you want to make sure that you are really investing
your time, your heart, your precious heart into people and projects that
make you excited, that you love.
And if anyone or anything is draining your energy, you want
to consciously let that go.
And as you do that, you're going to steer yourself more
and more toward your destiny.
Let your heart be your guide.
