October

What Lies Beneath
Your interior, not your exterior, is the focus in October. The bare and naked truth, perhaps, or your very soul – that part of you which dreams, astral travels and usually only greets you in meditation, or the confessional box. This is really intense Scorpio weather and this sign rules the Twelfth House of your chart, where you are most deeply submerged from view. Bacchus, Mercury, Venus Retrograde, the Sun and Jupiter in Scorpio all suggest some kind of peak solution or opportunity, and it may well be connected to your subconscious mind. Hypnosis is one way of getting there but dream interpretation is another. The Twelfth House, in a more basic way, is about what you cover up and hide. Secrets, classified information or confidential matters belong there, which is why you may want to say all you have to say – or get things firmly in writing – before Mercury, the planet of communication, information and paperwork starts moving retrograde shadow, near Monday 29th October. I do realise this won’t be a walk in the park, if you do have something to get out – or bury – because of the Full Moon on Wednesday 24th October, yet it’s also true that this your last best chance to sort things out in your favour. This applies to therapy, too. Counselling, psychology and psychics are all part of the Twelfth House trip that many Sagittarius will be experiencing. What else is going on now? Well, in a much more obvious way, your lifestyle, daily workload, sense of duty to other people, and commitment to your own wellbeing – are subject to radical change. Uranus is the planet of revolution, freedom, space, autonomy and independence. We find him in your zone of daily life, routine and your physical condition and state – bringing quite unprecedented changes near October 6th, 10th and again near that dramatic Full Moon near Wednesday 24th October. Halloween itself,  on 31st October is also the date for a Venus-Uranus opposition. You really couldn’t make that up. It’s not spooky, though. Just necessary. You need to get on board the waves of change with your board and surf where you must, at that point. Forget the flags, the light house and the lifeguards. Forget the notice boards. You are now in a completely different space and no matter if your priority is your job, your unpaid work, your course or your actual health – you have to read the currents as they come towards you and adjust, adjust, adjust.
