Hello and Welcome to October 2025!
I am going to give you the October 2025 events below. But first I want to talk about a few major planetary aspects that have been occurring in the last few months, will continue in October and through the rest of 2025 (and to 2029!). These major events will affect us all much more than the minor October aspects listed below.
These major aspects include the outer planets Uranus, Neptune/Saturn, and Pluto interacting in a rare Grand Sextile, or “Star of David,” pattern involving Uranus, Pluto, Saturn, and Neptune, with Jupiter potentially joining later in 2026 to complete a more complex Star of David configuration.
The 4 outer planets are interacting now and will be interacting together through 2029 with exact aspects (also known as a "talent triangle") that will take us into brand new energies and experiences that we haven't created or lived through before. Then they keep connecting within a degree or two until 2029 when Uranus in Gemini then moves on. As they interact through these impactful connections, we will be moving into new creations, technologies, innovations, and information that will be (is already!) radical, exciting, and overwhelming. If you are wondering why you feel “off,” this is why!
Uranus in Gemini and Neptune in Aries spark a spiritual awakening creating a substantial shock due to the dissolution of many structures that have the possibility of creating confusion and delusion. This can make some people fall prey to fear, irrational ideas, and false gurus.
But there’s a positive side. Through this quest for freedom, people also become concerned about the future of humanity and how we connect with peace and acceptance. There’s a free-spirited, innovative and freedom-seeking nature to these planets. Science, art, psychology and justice reforms are enhanced for political, cultural and environmental change, and these changes become the norm.
For each of us personally, the key to working with these planets is to connect a clear mind to an open heart and take action based on your deeper level of understanding. Uranus and Neptune want the Soul to lead, bringing a surge in creativity, compassionate consciousness and justice.
Now we can see how specific October dates will affect you.
October 6th – Mercury moves into Scorpio. This is the ideal time to get to the bottom of matters. If you dig for facts, you can find them. For students and scientists, this transit provides the perfect cosmic backdrop for research. Mercury in Scorpio can be secretive - if you wish to keep your affairs private, you have a better chance of that now. Mercury leaves Scorpio for truth-telling Sagittarius on the 29th.
October 13th - Venus moves into Libra. Venus rules Libra, so this is the perfect match! Wine and dine, flirt, and recite poetry. The more effort you make, the more likely you’ll hit the right love note. This transit is one of the best for engagement or marriage.
October 13th – Pluto Stations Direct, opening the door for large-scale transformation. It may have felt as if the world was stagnant for months. But now? Everything is ready to evolve. Expect innovation and technology breakthroughs. Progress can also be made in communities. Get involved in humanitarian organizations or mutual aid groups. Together, we’re better.
October 21st - New Moon in Libra reveals new romantic or artistic opportunities. If an interesting newcomer shows up in your world, introduce yourself. For creatives, this is the green light to begin new projects.
October 22nd - Neptune retrogrades back into Pisces, giving you a few months to review your boundaries. Many lessons were learned over the last decade, so this feels like a pop quiz. If you feel timid about saying “no thanks,” you can find your personal power now. Neptune will return to Aries on January 26th.
October 29th – Mercury saunters into Sagittarius. The Truth is In! Speak your mind, express your honest opinion, and say it “like it is.” However, watch your bluntness. A little tact goes a long way. Mercury will be back in Scorpio on November 18, due to next month’s retrograde.
MANY BLESSINGS, JULIE REEVES
