Astrology for October 3 - Oct 9 2025

Full Moon in Aries, Relationship-Focused Week

On October 3, Mercury in Libra opposes Chiron in Aries at 25º. This transit is going to bring vulnerable conversations to the forefront. Mercury in Libra is interested in finding balance about a long-standing issue in a relationship. It is possible that this issue can also be found within oneself, as the way that we mirror each other becomes pronounced through the process. Engaged willingly or unwillingly, today’s the day where discussions are on the table. This is likely to be uncomfortable, but it’s best to, at the very least, observe what arises. Chiron in Aries points to the ways in which we have not adequately or clearly asserted our desires, taken initiative in going after them, or that we have become disconnected from what we desire completely. Imbalances must be addressed in order for harmony to be achieved. Tact, discussion dynamics, differences in debate styles, are all trigger points. Zoom out and try to observe where you might be taking something personally instead of participating in achieving a common goal or outcome. The triggers likely have nothing to do with the present moment and refer back to earlier wounds. The focus here is on styles of communication and if what we are meaning to say has effective delivery or is devoid of compassion. Touchy subjects. Time to talk about it. Time to observe levels of diplomacy. 

On October 4, Venus conjuncts the South Node in Virgo at 18º. Venus, the planet of relationships, meets the South Node, the point of past karma, in the sign of Virgo, responsible for analysis, service, and organization. This can manifest in a few ways. This is a relationship clean up or clean out. Old ways of relating are beyond outdated, and for many reasons, may be getting addressed this week, but are also due for more than just discussion. There is implied action here and that action involves release. Outside of partnerships, Venus will have us reviewing old ways of engaging with ourselves, from pleasure habits to diet and exercise, mental health, body image, etc, Venus/South Node takes a critical, even brutal look at our routines in these areas and points directly at what needs to go. No more keeping it in the “everything drawer.” Walk it all the way to the curb this time. We are making space (physical, emotional, mental, etc.) for when Venus enters the sign of Libra very soon, on October 13. Trust that better-aligned is on the way.

October 6 brings the full Moon in Aries at 14º. This full Moon is not making any major exact aspects to other planets besides the usual Sun in Libra opposition. Full Moons notoriously bring things to fruition or completion, and in the sign of Aries, we may have arrived at just that within our evolving sense of self and/or within a relationship. Romantic, business, platonic, familial, etc. ALL of our one-on-one relationships are illuminated under the light of this full Moon on the Aries/Libra, Me/We axis. Take stock and observe what is being illuminated in the dynamics of your one-on-one interactions. They will be loud and lit. 

Also on October 6, Mercury moves into Scorpio until October 29. If topics are touchy, this certainly doesn’t help the element of tact and delivery. Emotions are high with a full Moon, and now the planet of communication takes on a ruthless demeanor. Despite sincere interest and good intention in getting to the bottom of a matter, we can be cutting in our approach. Mercury in Scorpio does aid us in detective work and allows us to lean into uncomfortable topics. We may see the benefits of this transit increase as we move away from the emotional intensity of the full Moon. Pay attention to what you or others are avoiding, shying away from, not saying, and the like. Look beneath the surface for what is actually going on and you will find information in abundance. 

On October 8, Venus in Virgo sextiles Jupiter in Cancer at 23º. After a bumpy ride, the two benefics in the sky engage in a supportive connection and can in turn support our connections to one another with follow up care and repair after the full Moon. This combination reminds us about what we do enjoy and appreciate about each other, what we find pleasurable, what we have in common, etc. If we can actually address the shadows and blemishes, today we can get along and shine. These signs enjoy quality time together at home, sharing loving meals, and indulging in healthy yet nostalgic ways.
