Aries Monthly Horoscope for October 2021

Overview

Woo-hoo….momentum starts to build as FOUR retrograde planets go direct! This is good news considering that this month’s full moon is in your sign.

Romance will be on your mind in a big way all October, as the Sun will be cruising through your house of commitment up until the 23rd. It then enters Scorpio, your house of forming a deep bond and sexual intimacy.

Career

Power broker Pluto goes direct in your house of major goals on October 6, so a new job or promotion could come your way. A new moon occurs the same day in Libra, your house of partnerships.

You could be asked to join a prestigious team or enter into a classic business partnership arrangement. This is an excellent time to retain the services of someone who can help advance your career, such as a literary agent, virtual assistant or attorney.

Entrepreneurship is also favored big time, as lively Venus enters your house of self-employment on the 9th. Regardless as your career choice, things really start to pick up speed at the time of the Aries full moon on the 20th. Good days in October for career are the 13th, 15th, and especially the 18th, when Mercury and profitable Jupiter both go direct.

Romance

There’s some interesting energy going on in your love zone, I have to say. The new moon on the 6th is superb for finding serious love, getting engaged, or creating a stronger relationship. Pluto goes direct the same day in your house of tradition, which means that many rams aren’t going to want shaky situations when it comes to love.

But “traditional” doesn’t mean boring! Venus, the planet of amour, enters Sagittarius on the 7th. Sagittarius is your house of breaking the rules and doing things differently. Then the Sun enters your house of sex on the 23rd, followed by Mars on the 30th!

So if you’re single and looking, you could meet someone who wants to settle down, but this person could be a real firecracker. If you’re in a relationship already, things can certainly get hot and steamy, and a sense of adventure and optimism could return to the relationship. Good days for love are the 3rd, 15th, 18th and 28th. If you’re single you could meet someone via an online site or through an introduction with a friend on the 28th.

Not-so-good days are the 1st, 17th and 22nd. Power plays could erupt on the 22nd, and chances are you won’t see eye to with a lover. But the rest of this month looks fabulous.

Jupiter and Saturn go direct in Aquarius

Aquarius is your eleventh house of friends and networking for business. Jupiter and Saturn have been spinning backwards here, which could’ve created delays or confusion with group activities. Saturn resumes direct motion on the 10th, followed by Jupiter on the 18th, so things should start to calm down.

However, Neptune is still retrograde in Pisces, the most secluded part of your chart. This is where we do inner work. So although your social life may start to pick up steam, you may still need some down time to take care of personal issues.

Full moon in your sign on 10/20!

Initiatives that you started around the time of your birthday can start to get wrapped up quite nicely at the time of the Aries full moon on the 20th. However, don’t expect everything to finish: a Venus-Uranus aspect the day before indicates that there are still some rough edges that need to be polished up.

You may also need more resources, like money, training and connections if you’re trying to take care of things in your occupation. Family matters and health issues can be resolved quite nicely at the time of the full moon, but in order to do this, you need to think out of the box.

The Sun enters Sexy Scorpio on the 23rd

Scorpio is your eighth house of net worth and sexuality, my friend. It’s interesting that astrologers back in the day lumped these two topics together in the same house, isn’t it? Sex and money, what a combination!

The next few months are critical for creating a strong financial foundation for your future: real estate, retirement funds, college money for the kids and so on. You can also create a strong bond with a lover, not only emotionally, but when it comes to more practical matters, like handling money and who’s going to clean the house.

Be aware that agitator Mars enters Scorpio on the 30th. Mars can really act like a double-edged sword when it’s in a house. It can encourage you to spend money like a drunken sailor. It can help you have wild, off-the-charts sex too. But it can create a lot of problems when it’s in this part of your chart, so use some logic here!
