October 2020 Horoscopes - Rest and Reset, Babe
By Kyle Thomas
Grab your girls, babe, it’s time for a staycation. Of all the months in 2020, October is going to be the slowest by far. This is because we’re dealing with a major cosmic Xanax, TBH. Mars—the ruler of energy, passion, sex, and drive—has been fast asleep since early September and will continue to make us lethargic AF until mid-November. Also, Mercury Retrograde begins October 13th, but will start lurking (just like that ex in your stories or DMs) as early as the beginning of the month. With two highly influential planets taking a nap, they’re giving you the go-ahead to do the same. Fighting against the wind, trying to force things when they’re not moving, and living in a constant “go-go-go” mentality is not the way life needs to be lived, babe. So chill out, catch up on that show you’ve been wanting to, or find more time to do what makes you happiest without stressing about what you cannot control.
On top of some stormy astrological weather, the planets will still be at war in October. But hey, you’ve gotten used to the pressure from multiple sides, so by now you’re learning that you’re resilient. Don’t give up. Keep on going. You’ve got this, babe. Even when you may face challenges or frustrations, do your best to take a step back and re-evaluate your life before you act. Charging angrily into anything will just further cause a breakout (no thanks).
When it comes to powerful Moon cycles this month, you’re about to face three. At the onset of October, a Full Moon in Aries roars within the night on the 1st. This will be a fiery, passionate time as you face your ego’s urges and are ready to conquer what you set your mind upon. Full Moons bring culminations, breakthroughs, and endings—so while it is okay to bring your wants and needs consciously into your awareness, impulsive behavior is just gonna bring you headaches. Mid-month, a New Moon in Libra arrives on October 16th. New Moons open doors in our lives as well as infuse us all with a collective vibration. This New Moon will turn your attention away from “me” and onto “we” as you assess your important partnerships in your life. While this would normally be a wonderful time to unite and grow closer—it is only okay to do so if you are already together. Starting anything “official” now will ultimately fail with both Mars and Mercury on a vacay. To end the month, we have a feisty Full Moon in Taurus that appears on October 31st—yup, Halloween. Spooky! This lunation will make you focus on how stable and secure your life is, as well as how you are building prosperity. However, with Uranus, the bad b*tch of drama, clashing with this Full Moon—expect sudden shocks and surprises (and don’t go on a shopping spree, k?). As the Sun moves on into Scorpio at the end of the month, we will become submerged within our feels and embrace our shadow sides.
Days for LUV LUV LUV are the 10, 12, 19, 21, 24, 25. FAB days for success this month are the 11, 12, 21, 24, and 25. Days to chill TF out and not stir the dramz are the 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 18, 19, and 31.
