October 2024 Horoscopes

While we label ourselves as "I am a Virgo" or "I am a Gemini", which is to say "This is my Sun Sign", the Sun sign only signifies one piece of the puzzle that is you, albeit one ginormous piece.

Your Sun Sign tells about your life's blueprint, the thing you aim to access in this life and build a legacy on. It is tied to your life path, your innermost purpose, your compass. Your Sun sign is tied to your vision for life.

So in reading these horoscopes, relate it to your life vision, your feeling of "home", your motivations.

Here are your October 2024 Sun Sign Horoscopes!

♈️ Aries Suns: Throughout the month, the Sun in Libra is opposing your Sun causing you to pay attention to the flip side of your very individual-minded purpose: Your purpose within relationships too. You might feel a push and pull in feeling fueled by logic and being fueled by passion. You might feel a little bit more indecisive than your routine dive-head-in-first self.

Ya'll have Chiron, the wounded leader moving through your sign , which means a rather slow play out of previous wounds coming through for healing. This illuminates areas of your life path that could be used as material for the vision you're building.

Pluto stations direct in Capricorn on October 12 and will remain square to your sign until it moves from here in 1.5 months. You might feel the intensity of this transit just a little more before it finally resolves.

This grounded, ambitious, BUILDING YOUR MATERIAL WORLD energy from Capricorn is challenging you to clean up your big fiery dreams. Quite the buzz kill to you, I know. Take advantage of it though as this transit is only once in your life time. Do away with the superfluous and let a slate-wiping Pluto Capricorn bring clarity to your core- The thing that created your vision to begin with.

♉️ Taurus Suns: Uranus is co-present in the same house as your Sun, which I suspect will shake up the ways in which you have traditionally planned to accomplish your vision. This might feel uncomfortable given the fact that Taurus is a fixed Earth sign that does not appreciate the shaking up of ANYTHING. Doubt might creep in and inner arguments might entail. Uranus is still retrograde in your sign, making this shake up all the slower and unexpected.

Mercury moves opposite your Sun on October 13! The planet of intellect, mind, logic, communication is opposing your Life vision in the sign of Scorpio: Emotional depth and transformation. Think if it like a tug-of-war bringing your attention to the hidden emotional undercurrents that need to be looked at logically.

And GUESS WHAT?? You also have the transiting Sun joining Mercury on October 23, shining an even BIGGER spot light on the themes of Scorpio! YAY! Time to dive deep into your feels, friend!

♊️ Gemini Suns: Mars leaves your sign on September 5 and your Jupiter is still squaring Saturn in Pisces. You'll still feel that spark of grandiosity and bigger ideals for your life, and Pisces Saturn continues to challenge you to bring some concrete plans to your imagination during this time period.

Jupiter goes retrograde in your sign on October 9, at the same time Venus moves into your opposing house of Sagittarius. Two benefics giving your Sun attention can't be that bad of a situation, even if they're opposing and squaring you! Expect it to bring up a love affair with thoughts of expansion, passion, and harmony to your life vision.

♋️ Cancer Suns: You inherit Mars this month from Gemini- And we all know how much Mars loves cancer.

Mars is joining your Sun in Cancer for a disrupted 6 months until April 2025, after a direct then retrograde cycle back into Cancer.

This might bring up some inner conflict or a disempowered/defeated tension to your sense of life direction. It might cause you to stand up to your own challenging emotions and comfort zones. Sometimes family karma issues can come up or issues of women/mothers/ parenting can arise.

Mercury and the transiting Sun move into a trine in Scorpio on Oct 13 and Oct 23. This is good news, as it will help to bring deep clarity to the tension that Mars is stirring up in your emotions.

The transiting Sun and your Sun are speaking each others watery emotional language right now- Take this as a sign that the Universe wants to give some added power to the vision that powers YOU.

♌️ Leo Suns: Your ruler, the transiting Sun is moving into a square with your Sun by the end of the month in Scorpio. You may feel a loss of motivation or some emotional overdoses from this transit, causing some of your flame (life vision/plans) to feel like they have "gone out" at moments.

TOTALLY NORMAL.

It is the normal up and down rollercoaster that is life: We are in Fall after all, losing daylight which your Sun-run sign does not naturally jive with anyway.

The beauty is, Venus moves into a trine in Sagittarius, your sister Fire sign, so you can expect some good rays of inspiration, hope and harmony with your own values as you go through these Scorpionic upheavals.

♍️ Virgo Suns: Glory be Hallelujah, you can see your sign ruler, transiting Mercury, once again as it moves into Scorpio. As it is sextile, any deep transformative revelations will likely not throw you off your vision.

After all, with Saturn retrograde in Pisces in an endless opposition to your Sun, you could use all the damn clarity you can get.

Oh and Venus and Jupiter are both square your sun starting October 17 sooooooo be prepared for some more logic v. passion challenges to your Earthy grounded vision.

♎️ Libra Suns: SOOOO your Sun can see its ruler now as Venus moves sextile into Sagittarius on October 17. YAS QUEEN!

The transiting Sun moves out of your sign, relieving some of the high intensity spotlight on your own life vision at this time.

Also, your Sun is in a long term square off with Pluto in Capricorn and Mars in Cancer. Your sense of direction starts a long journey of being tested as you are challenged to transform your physical surroundings, challenge your childhood traumas, and stand up for the things you are emotionally invested in that are threatened by change. Have some patience with all the things that start bubbling to the surface; Mars is meant to ignite difficulties and Pluto is meant to transform them.

♏️ Scorpio Suns: Your Sun is trine to both Malefics which are in Water signs: Saturn in Pisces and Mars in Cancer. By October 23, the Sun also moves into your sign along with Mercury!

Water = intuition, emotions, SPIRITUALITY! Guys, expect these forces to positively influence your life vision/path with this grand water trine going on! They are serving you grounding, wisdom, yet motivation to take action and passion.

♐️ Sagittarius Suns: Your Sun continues to oppose Jupiter in Gemini, feeling like your visions are being grounded in logic for this past season. The things that usually fuel you, your own sense of direction, is being filtered through a very logic oriented lens.

Jupiter goes retrograde on October 9, causing a slower, more drawn out sensation of digging deeper and deeper into logic and reflecting on thought after thought.

All this is to say there is a huge spotlight in your world on logic coming in from Gemini, breaking things down to pieces and mental stimulation. What once felt like your intuition telling you what your life path is, is now being challenged by real world logic. Where there is a challenge though, you are one of the bravest signs to turn that into wisdom. Accept this challenge and build a well thought out vision Sags!

Venus also moves into your sign, bringing a calming, harmonious taste to your life lense right now. It is very much needed! Take the time to smell the roses and slow down to appreciate life.

♑️ Capricorn Suns: Mars is in opposition in Cancer and as Mars is your exaltation ruler, expect some assistance from this transit in a form you are unlikely to expect. Your concrete visions of life and your purpose may shift from the material to the emotional as Mars ignites some passion and attention in your opposing water sign. This can serve as a form of completion for you, giving you some much needed emotional activation.

Pluto in your sign goes into an exact opposition with Mars on October 30; Think of this as a battle of will and power. They're both here to clean up your life vision my friend, both inside and outside, leaving only what is vital to you to remain.

♒️ Aquarius Suns: Uranus in Taurus squaring your sun, while Jupiter in Gemini trines your Sun. Any confusion about your direction in life might be augmented by Uranus sending you a challenging beam, but Jupiter in an air trine is giving you some helpful hugs and uplifting the Earthy Taurus heaviness like air. Continue to trod along, charting your own path.

The Sun and Mercury also move into a square with you this month in the sign of Scorpio. Fixed like you, this is a standoff of emotion and intellect when it comes to your life vision. This too shall pass, but take what you need from it as well! Although you're a logic sign, there could be a lot to learn from emotions too.

♓️ Pisces Suns: Neptune AND Saturn retrograde through your Sun sign?? Talk about being caught between the past and the present, challenging chaos with order. All this co-present with your Sun: Your life's vision and life path! You might feel like your life's purpose is all a bit of a confusing uphill mess right now and a challenging topic to hone in on.

October 27, Venus in Sagittarius is at an exact square to your Saturn and Mars in Cancer is exactly trine your Neptune.

Pisces, you can't seem to catch a break this time of year, huh?

This month is a time to look at what matters most to you and deciding if it is worth going to battle for or allowing restrictions to limit those dreams.
