OCTOBER ASTROLOGY
RELATIONSHIPS & TRUTH
As we celebrate the changing colours and begin to turn inwards, October is a month for reflection and expanding our insight, understanding how we might become happier individuals.
SUN
As October rustles in, the sun will be warming our relationships up in harmonious Libra. Honest and well balanced relationships will thrive, shining a light on partnerships which may need a few tweaks or a good reset! Power up with good sleep and hearty rooty food, boosting your energy to steer yourself back on course. The sun then enters passionate and intense Scorpio on October 22, bringing with it transformational vibrations and a desire to get to the heart of the matter.
MOON
When the Moon moves from sign to sign every two and a half days, it effect’s our mood. We experience the shift on a subtle level. The beginning of a lunar cycle and the end can be particularly interesting to look at. It can be helpful to work with the moons influence.
NEW MOON in Libra and Solar Eclipse on October 2nd.
New moons begin the lunar cycle and offer a fresh start – an opportunity to dream up our perfect month ahead!
Being an eclipse, it automatically makes this new moon super powerful.
Eclipses may help to bring about events in your life that are part of the cosmic plan, but it is not that the eclipse makes something happen in your life, it is that you will often have more clarity in areas you have felt confused about.
A ritual on the eclipse can be powerful, like lighting a candle or writing an intention down on paper and burning it, can support the energy of release you may embody more at this time, bringing change.
NEW MOON IDEAS AT HOME

Focus on your talents and a possible artistic project.

Great new relationships will flourish with this new moon.
Share your ideas with those that lift you up and hold space for your dreams.
FULL MOON in Aries on 17 October ; The Hunters Moon
Full moons mark the completion of the lunar cycle, and they allow us to release the old and make way for the new. You don’t have to be mystically minded to appreciate a full moon. Letting go is a part of life, so taking a little time to think about what you may of outgrown monthly, with the support of a full moon, we are hitting our very own ‘refresh button’ as it were!
FULL MOON IDEAS AT HOME
Celebrate your personal achievements.
Focus on your individuality.
Thinking about those that came before you, and your family values. Do they still resonate?
How can you slow down and savor the beauty of Autumn in your daily life? What practices or rituals can you incorporate to connect more deeply with the season?
A word to meditate on ‘Release’
‘In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you’ Gautama Buddha
