With the Sun currently in Libra, the sign that rules relationships, partnerships, and those with whom you spend the majority of your time with, October brings a time when you will be learning about yourself through partners.
When you think about others who upset you, ask yourself, “What do these people represent?” People who annoy us are our teachers! The answers may surprise you as you make some very personal discoveries about yourself that can lead to an amazing transformation.
It is a great time for socializing, networking, or any activity that involves the creation of lasting partnerships, be it personal or business.
It is also a good time for creative pursuits as Venus; Libra’s ruler, encourages you to get in touch with your artistic side. Take an art class, go to the symphony, learn a new language, delve into poetry, or philosophical studies, anything that requires higher learning will be favourable this month. You may find yourself attracted to a more cultured group of people who help you to expand your horizons in these areas. Take advantage of any, and all opportunities that come your way, as it will serve to promote personal growth.
On October 9 there will be a new moon in Libra, which will signify new beginnings with others. New moons are a great time to set relationship goals, ask yourself what it is that you can do for the important people in your life. On October 15, intellectual expression, increased understanding, and overall appreciation for others is present; it is a great time for having those otherwise uncomfortable discussions with your partner as they will run more smoothly now. If you are in a new relationship, and have not dropped the “L” word yet, today would be a good day to do it.
October 18 to 20 can present some challenges with others who might come across as overly defensive, or you could experience these repressed energies in yourself, making you feel a bit touchy as well. Be mindful of your temper Pisces, as simple disagreements can morph into heated debates! Try to channel your energy in more productive ways that will allow you to release any pent up tension; this will keep situations from escalating.
