Weekly Astrological Forecast October 24-31

By Bob Mulligan

From October 24^th to the 31^st we take a giant leap forward and improve both our personal and professional life.  All we have to do is overcome our own tendency to expand too rapidly; when we get ahead of ourselves we lose our center of gravity.  We do best by keeping our eyes on our goals even if it means that we create alone. This is a happy moment; seize it.

24^th – Monday – Mercury Sesquiquadrate Uranus – Flashes of insight and brilliant ideas can make for much excitement. But, stubborn attachment to forms, rituals, or habits can stop us from grasping the true significance of the moment.

25^th – Tuesday – Sun Quincunx Uranus, Sun Contra-parallel Jupiter, Venus Semi-square Pluto – Our urge for freedom can degenerate into hostile feelings for others.  Deep concentration can stop the chain of negative thinking and lead us to positive action.

26^th – Wednesday – Mars Sextile Saturn, Mercury Parallel Pluto, Venus Semi-sextile Saturn, Mercury Semi-square Pluto, the New Moon is at 3:57 PM EDT, Venus Square Mars, Sun Parallel Neptune – Every New Moon is a new beginning but this one is a very active turning point.  With cautious steps taken in sequence, our actions can reveal some new treasures in our own nature.  We make progress when we keep moving and pay attention.

27^th – Thursday – Mercury Semi-sextile Saturn – Love and duty are recurring themes now. With careful analysis and intentional conversations we can understand then heal insufficiencies in key relationships.  Be patient and truth will follow.

28^th – Friday – Mercury Square Mars, Jupiter Trine Pluto, Sun Opposite Jupiter, Sun Sextile Pluto – This is a lucky and productive time…we make some good choices and have lots of forward momentum.  Overreach and arguments are the only things that can get in the way of progress.  Stay positive.   

29^th – Saturday – Venus Parallel Pluto – Pure spirit of adventure may be the motive behind our “button pushing” habit now.  Everyone and everything gets shaken up a bit now and we very well may be the ones responsible for the shaking. Passions are strong and a little playfulness can turn serious, be prepared for depth.

30^th – Sunday – Swift progress turns into caution.  We make a successful day by following our common sense; there is a well trod path in front of us, stay on it.

31^st – Monday – Venus Square Neptune – Are we able to make something beautiful out of the confusion of the moment? Love is in every event, even when we don’t have eyes to see it. We can help the world if we use our personal passions to aid others in a practical manner.
