Tarotscopes | October 2024
Happy October! This month will be wrapping up all the loose ends, with our final in a series of eclipses in Libra and Aries. Look back and take a moment for all the growth you have undergone these past eclipses. Embrace this transformation as we enter into a new era of being.
Below are some key transits to pay attention to:
October 2nd: Solar Eclipse in Libra
This is the first part of the final eclipses in this sign. A letting go and a shedding will begin a cycle for the next six months. If you are familiar with your chart, look at the Libra house to get a better understanding on what this will entail.
October 5-6th: Mercury in Libra square Mars in Cancer
This transit brings irritation and sharpness to our communication. Do not be shocked if any bickering occurs. If you can manage, do not plan any large meetings or conversations.
October 9th: Jupiter Retrograde in Gemini
To really understand this transit, I suggest looking at the Gemini area of your chart. In essence, we are revisiting a certain area of growth and not exactly moving forward with it, and instead opting for refining and sorting it out. It is as if we think we’ve really expanded in some way, but realizing we’re not 100% there yet.
October 17th: Lunar eclipse in Aries + Venus enters Sagittarius
Much like the solar eclipse at the beginning of the month, this eclipse is a beginning to something new. Unlike the solar eclipse in Libra, this is a dramatic new beginning instead of an ending.
Look out for transformative growth. We spend the majority of the month with Venus, the planet of love and value, in the sign of Scorpio. This leads for themes of paranoia and maybe intense dynamics. This transition into Sagittarius invites a sense of wonder and adventure with how we express love. It makes a more playful energetic for the collective.
October 23: Scorpio season officially begins
The Tarot card for the collective this month is the Six of Wands! This is a symbol that a period. of conflict has come to an end, and our rewards and praise are here now. Move forward knowing you can’t take the past with you, and you are exactly where you are supposed to be.
Aries
Ten of Wands
Ask yourself this month “What can I take off my plate?” The Ten of Wands is about overwhelment and burden. This can be taken as a sign you have a lot of goals and wants but now might be the time to do less. Naturally direct and goal oriented, this might be a hard ask. Trust that giving a few things your full attention is better than taking on every responsibility.
Taurus
The High Priestess
You might be repressing your natural intuition. Slow down and see how you’re actually feeling, and stop going through the motions. If you have a ping something isn’t quite right during this month chances are they probably aren’t. But remember anxiety is a racing thought that something is amiss, intuition is a quiet knowing.
Gemini
Ten of Cups
This month you’re feeling all the feels, and the best ones at that. Achievements, love and abundance are all encompassing at this time. Take a moment to let it all sink in. Give gratitude to all who made these blessings possible.
Cancer
Nine of Cups
A change for the better is here this October. After some rocky terrain, a shift is taking place. Happiness, fulfillment and wishes granted. The Nine of Cups appears when things are finally getting good.
Leo
The Sun
The most joyous card of the tarot is here, telling you not to worry. There might have been some not so great moments earlier leading to this point but the sun is shining on you now. Unlike other cards of success, the Sun is something larger, not momentary. So just know from here on out, you’ll be alright.
Virgo
Four of Swords
There is a call for a change of boundaries, or even harsh separations. Focus on YOU. How are you managing stress at this time? How do you protect yourself mentally and energetically? Separate yourself from high maintenance relationships and conflicts.
Libra
Queen of Cups
Getting back in touch with what fulfills you, is key at this time. When was the last time you checked in on yourself? Take this month, the peak of your season, to assess the theme of fulfillment. Where can you give, where can you take?
Scorpio
Ten of Pentacles
A new financial opportunity, or a large personal win will unfold for you this month. Money and power are themes associated with your sign, so this win is well deserved. Take a moment to applaud yourself for coming out on top of this achievement.
Sagittarius
King of Pentacles
Generosity is the theme for your October. There are multiple ways to interpret this. You are either the recipient or the giver but, regardless it is a positive. You might get a helping hand which will catapult you into a new way of life, or will do so for someone else. Luck is on your side.
Capricorn
Five of Pentacles
Notoriously, this is not an ideal card at face value. The themes are those of loss or restriction around what we value. I invite you to look at this differently. The Five of Pentacles is also known as the card of “Worry” . With that in mind, we can understand that this is the perception of a threat, not literal. What is actually the worst case scenario? Chances are this is extremely unlikely. All you need is already here, pivot into a better frame of thinking and do what needs to be done to ensure the security you desire. You can’t lose what is inherently yours.
Aquarius
Seven of Wands
You’re being challenged during this time. There is an understanding that things aren’t exactly panning out the way you thought. This card is here to remind you that you possess the strength and tenacity to ensure the results you want. Do not give up, you will overcome whatever it is you are up against.
Pisces
The Emperor
You have a plan, an inner calling and possess the ability to see it through. The Emperor is a representation of the inner authority we possess to succeed at our goals. At this time get real with yourself, and know all it will take to ensure the results you want. Look at this as an invitation for the month to discipline yourself for the life you want.
