Weekly astrology summary:
It’s a cosmically active week! The first main event is the Libra new moon on Tuesday, Oct. 21 (occurring at 8:25 a.m.). It’s a lovely invitation to infuse more balance, harmony, fairness, romance, aesthetics and diplomacy into everyday life. The second main event is supernatural Neptune diving back into the Piscean waters on Wednesday, Oct. 22. Neptune entered the brave new world of Aries back on March 30. We all may experience a resurgence of themes from earlier this year. The chance to ride the waves fully to the shore lasts until the end of January next year. The sun shifts into Scorpio also on Oct. 22, beginning its annual sojourn through the sensitive, emotional waters.
Meanwhile, throughout the week, planets are making connections in all of the water signs, activating the water element. This rare configuration supports feeling into intuitions, imagination, dreams, instincts, and nourishment more than usual. Trust your gut and allow your thoughts and actions to be guided by your inner knowing during this time and through the end of the month. Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel regarding some of last year’s recurring challenges may be part of the experience. Some of the planetary connections being made won’t occur again in any of our lifetimes. Take advantage of the support the cosmos is gifting us!
