October 2024 Tarotscope - Fireside
Welcome to the October 2024 Tarotscope, a time of profound transformation and reflection as we transition from the harmonious scales of Libra to the introspective depths of Scorpio. As the Sun makes its annual descent into the underworld, October urges us to explore the hidden realms of our psyche and spirit, setting the stage for personal and collective rebirth. Amidst these deep waters, the Page of Wands has appeared as a beacon of fire, reminding us of the power of initiating and nurturing innovative projects. This fiery spirit invites you to ignite your creative passions and pursue your dreams with courage and optimism. Are you ready to channel this fearless energy to transform your life this month? Join me by the fireside, and let’s discover the bold opportunities that await us!
♈︎ Aries Rising Aˢᶜ
This October, your Aries Rising faces heightened tension as the Sun, weakened in Libra, opposes your ascendant from the 7th house of relationships and partnerships. With the Sun ruling over your 5th house of creativity, romance, and self-expression, the strain is particularly felt in how these areas of life play out in your interactions with others, causing friction that directly challenges your autonomy, personal identity, and vitality. This opposition reaches its peak during the solar eclipse on October 2nd, intensifying feelings of rejection, disagreement, and resistance within your close partnerships. Eclipses bring swift change and highlight areas in need of transformation, so this may feel like a turning point in how you navigate your personal connections. In addition to the eclipse, the tension is compounded by Mars in Cancer, fallen in your 4th house and squaring your ascendant. The strain from your home, family life, and emotional foundations spills into your personal sphere, making it difficult to maintain your usual assertive approach to life. However, as the Sun transitions into Scorpio later in the month, forming a supportive trine with Mars, the weight begins to lift, offering you subtle but restorative energy to rebuild your confidence and reclaim your personal power. The Page of Wands appears during this transformative time, encouraging you to take bold, creative steps forward and reignite your inner fire. Despite the external and internal challenges, this is your moment to turn tension into transformation, using the Page’s fiery energy to spark new ventures, creative projects, and personal growth that align with your true self.
♈︎ Aries Sun ☉
As October unfolds, those with an Aries Sun face a celestial tug-of-war, as the Sun in Libra opposes your fiery nature, creating palpable tension and manifesting as disagreements and challenges to your autonomy. This opposition peaks during the solar eclipse on October 2nd, intensifying the strain and bringing sudden shifts or revelations related to partnerships and personal identity. The eclipse may feel like a dramatic moment of resistance, rejection, or enmity, amplifying the challenges to your natural assertiveness and leadership. This struggle is further intensified by Mars in Cancer, which, in its fallen state, forms a harsh square to your Sun, leading to feelings of being overpowered or forced into difficult decisions, testing your resolve and energy. As the Sun progresses into Scorpio, however, the opposition lifts, and a supportive trine with Mars begins to restore the strength and authority that felt diminished during Libra season. This marks a turning point, where background support starts to flow in, helping to rebuild your confidence and leadership capabilities. It is during this transformative time that the Page of Wands ignites a new spark within you, rekindling your adventurous spirit and encouraging you to embrace challenges with renewed vigor and optimism. Use this month as an opportunity to recover from the strain, using the Page of Wands' fiery energy to light your way forward through any lingering resistance. This is your moment to reclaim your power, shine brightly, and move boldly toward your goals with an invigorated sense of purpose.
♈︎ Aries Moon ☽
As October begins, those with an Aries Moon may face heightened emotional challenges as the Sun in Libra opposes your Moon. This cosmic opposition peaks with the solar eclipse on October 2nd, intensifying emotional tensions and bringing sudden shifts or revelations in your relationships or emotional landscape. The eclipse amplifies the conflict between the harmonizing energies of Libra and your Moon's instinctual need for direct emotional expression, making it feel like external forces are pushing against your inner peace. This period can feel particularly taxing, as it may seem like everything is at odds with your emotional needs, potentially leading to mood fluctuations and stress. Compounding this, Mars in Cancer—fallen and square to your Moon—introduces elements of forcefulness and emotional coercion, making you feel overpowered and drained, as though your emotional autonomy is being undermined. However, as the Sun transitions into Scorpio, it moves away from opposition and begins to form a supportive trine with Mars, offering unseen emotional support that slowly restores your resilience. The Page of Wands then appears as a spark of inspiration, encouraging you to reignite your emotional strength and optimism. Embrace the Page of Wands' fiery energy by engaging in creative projects, physical activities, or meaningful connections that help restore your emotional balance. Focus on self-care and healthy routines as the month progresses, turning challenges into opportunities for renewed emotional strength and resilience.
♉︎ Taurus Rising Aˢᶜ
This October, Taurus Rising faces a series of challenges as Venus, your ruling planet, spends much of the month in detriment in Scorpio, opposing your 1st house of personal identity and vitality from the 7th house, creating tension in relationships and social dynamics. At the same time, the Sun’s transit through Libra in your 6th house of labor and health has been draining your energy, and as the Sun moves into Scorpio, this opposition continues, further challenging your sense of self, especially with the Sun ruling your 4th house of emotional foundations and home life. These combined influences may leave you feeling rejected or at odds with both external relationships and your own inner stability. As Venus transitions into Sagittarius and your 8th house of shared resources, some relief comes as the tension eases, though subtle challenges regarding finances or fears around loss may arise. Amid these difficulties, the Page of Wands emerges as a beacon of hope, encouraging proactive steps toward creative problem-solving, particularly in areas tied to your family life, home, and emotional security. Although tensions may arise in your personal foundations, the Page of Wands reminds you that innovation and bold leadership can help stabilize your situation. You’re also encouraged to confront deeper fears around shared resources or financial entanglements with courage. Use this fire energy to transform hidden challenges into opportunities for growth, grounding yourself in practical actions while embracing the creativity and bravery that the Page of Wands embodies.
♉︎ Taurus Sun ☉
This October, your Taurus Sun faces significant challenges as Venus, your ruling planet, spends most of the month in opposition from Scorpio, creating tension in relationships and emotional life. This may bring feelings of disconnection or rejection, making it hard to feel supported in matters of the heart, desires or partnerships. As Venus moves into Sagittarius, offering some relief, the Sun then enters Scorpio and takes its place in opposition, challenging your vitality, autonomy, and leadership. These combined oppositions ask you to confront areas of resistance, both emotionally and in your personal authority. Adding to this tension is the Page of Wands, whose fiery energy squares your Taurus Sun, urging you toward creative change, even if it feels uncomfortable or out of sync with your grounded nature. The clash between Taurus's stable, cold energy and the dynamic heat of Fire may feel overwhelming, but this friction presents an opportunity for growth. The Page of Wands encourages you to embrace creative risks and explore new ventures, even if they challenge your typical approach. By leaning into this energy, you can break free from old patterns and use the tension to fuel new passions and ambitions, turning the discomfort of this month into a chance for self-discovery and reinvigoration.
♉︎ Taurus Moon ☽
This October, your Taurus Moon faces emotional challenges as Venus, your ruling planet, spends most of the month in opposition from Scorpio, creating tension in your personal life and relationships. This opposition may stir feelings of emotional disconnection or instability, making it hard to maintain inner peace or feel supported by those around you. As Venus moves into Sagittarius, the Sun enters Scorpio and continues the opposition, now challenging your emotional resilience, mental health, and sense of security. These oppositions force you to confront areas of resistance and fluctuation in your emotional world, particularly from authority and leaders. The Page of Wands adds another layer of tension, as its fiery energy squares your cold, dry Taurus Moon, pushing you toward emotional change and creativity in a way that may feel unsettling and too fast. This clash between Taurus’s stable emotional nature and the dynamic energy of Fire can be overwhelming, but it also presents a chance for emotional growth. The Page of Wands urges you to embrace new emotional perspectives and take risks in your personal life, even if they feel unfamiliar. By leaning into this energy, you can break free from emotional patterns and use the tension to spark new passions and emotional resilience, turning the discomfort into an opportunity for inner growth and renewed emotional strength.
♊︎ Gemini Rising Aˢᶜ
This October, Mercury, your ruling planet, stays close to the Sun, creating a unique dynamic as both planets move from Libra to Scorpio. In the first half of the month, Mercury and the Sun in Libra form a supportive trine to your ascendant, bringing ease in communication, self-expression, and creativity, particularly in matters tied to the 5th house. However, as Mercury transitions into Scorpio, followed by the Sun, the focus shifts to the 6th house, where issues surrounding health, labor, and daily challenges take center stage. The Sun, ruling your 3rd house of communication, siblings, and routine errands, is fallen in Libra, making it harder to express yourself, manage day-to-day activities, or stay in sync with your usual social connections. This can lead to miscommunications, difficulty in learning or routine activities, and disruptions in local travel or casual conversations. As the Sun moves into Scorpio, its influence becomes more subtle, turning your attention to behind-the-scenes struggles in maintaining routine tasks and energy levels. Meanwhile, the Page of Wands brings a bold, dynamic influence to your relationships, social connections, and communication. Its fiery energy encourages you to take initiative, spark new conversations, and pursue creative projects, even if the energy feels a bit uncomfortable for your adaptable nature. Though the 6th house’s demands pull your focus inward, the Page of Wands inspires you to engage with the outside world in bold, courageous ways, helping you transform routine challenges into opportunities for growth, self-expression, and connection.
♊︎ Gemini Sun ☉
This October, both the Sun and Mercury begin by forming a supportive trine to your Gemini Sun, bringing harmony to your communication, creativity, and intellectual pursuits. During the first half of the month, you’ll experience this complementary energy as a boost in confidence and clarity, enhancing your relationships and allowing for productive expression of your ideas. The trine fosters trust and cooperation, as Mercury sharpens your wit and mental agility while the Sun strengthens your sense of purpose and autonomy. However, as the Sun and Mercury move into Scorpio, this support wanes, and their influence becomes more subtle, pulling back from direct interaction with your Gemini Sun. The shift may result in a sense of losing momentum, especially in areas where communication and creativity were previously flowing with ease, requiring more internal effort to maintain clarity and focus. As this support fades, the Page of Wands steps in to offer additional assistance, providing a cooperative and encouraging energy to help you stay proactive. The dynamic influence of the Page invites you to explore new ideas and creative projects with enthusiasm, helping you align with others and maintain momentum, even as Mercury and the Sun become less visible. By embracing this bold and supportive energy, you can transform subtle shifts into opportunities for growth and new ventures.
♊︎ Gemini Moon ☽
This October, both the Sun and Mercury begin by forming a supportive trine to your Gemini Moon, bringing harmony to your emotional well-being, nurturing relationships, and mental clarity. During the first half of the month, you’ll experience this complementary energy as an emotional boost, providing stability and flow in how you process and express your feelings. The trine fosters trust and emotional cooperation, helping you feel supported in close relationships while enhancing your ability to nurture yourself and others. However, as the Sun and Mercury move into Scorpio, this emotional support wanes, and their influence becomes more subtle, pulling back from direct interaction with your Moon. The shift may result in a sense of emotional instability or mood fluctuations, especially where you once felt more secure, requiring more internal effort to maintain your mental and emotional balance. As this support fades, the Page of Wands steps in to provide encouragement, offering dynamic energy to help you remain emotionally proactive. The Page brings a fresh perspective, urging you to explore new emotional experiences, nurturing relationships, and personal growth, even as the steady support from Mercury and the Sun diminishes. By embracing this bold and supportive energy, you can turn potential emotional challenges into opportunities for healing, growth, and renewed emotional strength.
♋︎ Cancer Rising Aˢᶜ
This October, the Sun, ruling over your 2nd house of finances and resources, begins in Libra, moving through your 4th house of home and family, where the Solar Eclipse on October 2nd magnifies already existing tensions. You may experience significant shifts related to your emotional foundations, home, and security, forcing you to reconsider how you manage these areas. Financial concerns could also arise, as the Sun’s fallen condition in Libra creates uncertainty around resources and material matters. However, as the Sun transitions into Scorpio and enters your 5th house, the tension eases, bringing relief through creativity, personal enjoyment, and self-expression. Later, the Full Moon in Aries on October 17th shines a light on your 10th house of career and public life, creating further tension as you face challenges around authority, reputation, and professional exposure. Amidst these shifts, the Page of Wands introduces bold, dynamic energy into your approach to finances, daily responsibilities, and professional pursuits. It encourages you to take creative risks with your resources, tackle unfulfilling tasks and health challenges with renewed vigor, and make courageous decisions that elevate your public standing.

♋︎ Cancer Sun ☉
This October, the Sun’s journey from Libra into Scorpio brings a shift in energy for your Cancer Sun. As the Sun moves through Libra, it forms a challenging square, creating tension and potential conflicts in areas of authority, autonomy, and vitality. This tension intensifies during the Solar Eclipse on October 2nd, magnifying the pressure to assert yourself against external forces. The Full Moon in Aries on October 17th brings another square, adding emotional strain and requiring resilience in the face of challenges around personal expression and your public or private roles. These squares may feel forceful or coercive, pushing you to navigate obstacles that test your boundaries. However, as the Sun transitions into Scorpio, the energy softens into a supportive trine, restoring a sense of balance and inviting trust, cooperation, and loyalty. This trine encourages a flow of creative and emotional expression, helping you rebuild and regain confidence after the earlier conflicts. Meanwhile, the Page of Wands steps in with bold, dynamic energy, urging you to embrace courage and take initiative in navigating these changes.

By leaning into this supportive energy and the adventurous spirit of the Page of Wands, you can transform October’s tensions into moments of emotional resilience and personal evolution.

♌︎ Leo Rising Aˢᶜ
This October, the Sun, your ruling planet, is not only central to your identity as a Leo Rising but also governs your 1st house of personal expression, vitality, and autonomy. As the Sun moves through Libra, it transits your 3rd house, where it will be in its fallen state, leading to a diminished sense of vitality and authority. You may feel less confident in expressing yourself or find that everyday communications—whether with siblings, neighbors, or through short travels and routine activities—are tinged with struggle. However, despite its fallen condition, the Sun in Libra forms a supportive sextile to your ascendant, offering cooperative energy that helps smooth over conflicts and provides some relief in your daily interactions, even if you're feeling somewhat drained. As the Sun transitions into Scorpio and moves into your 4th house of family and emotional foundations, it forms a tense square, creating friction in areas tied to home life, emotional stability, and personal privacy.

♌︎ Leo Sun ☉
This October brings a dynamic shift for your Leo Sun as the transiting Sun moves through Libra and into Scorpio. While the fallen Sun in Libra may reduce some of your vitality and authority, it still forms a harmonious sextile to your Leo Sun, fostering cooperation and a sense of complementary energy that helps you navigate interactions and decisions with subtle confidence. Despite this, as the Sun transitions into Scorpio, the sextile gives way to a challenging square, bringing internal conflicts and external pressures that test your autonomy, decision-making, and personal power. These tensions may stir feelings of forcefulness or coercion, requiring you to stand firm in your leadership qualities and push through obstacles. Amidst these changes, the Page of Wands brings dynamic support, encouraging you to embrace bold, creative action and fearlessly pursue your passions.

♌︎ Leo Moon ☽
This October brings a shift in energy for your Leo Moon as the Sun moves through Libra and into Scorpio. While the Sun is fallen in Libra, it forms a supportive sextile to your Moon, fostering cooperation and some ease in navigating your emotional responses and personal relationships. This sextile may help you find emotional balance, allowing you to express nurturing qualities and stabilize fluctuating moods. However, as the Sun transitions into Scorpio later in the month, this harmony fades, and a challenging square to your Moon takes its place. This square may feel forceful, stirring internal emotional conflicts and placing strain on your mental health and nurturing instincts. You may feel pressure from external forces that challenge your emotional stability, requiring you to confront deeper emotional issues or unresolved feelings. Despite these tensions, the Page of Wands brings a fiery and uplifting energy, encouraging you to approach emotional challenges with creativity and courage. The Page's influence helps you tap into your inner strength, inspiring you to explore new ways to express your emotions and take bold steps in nurturing yourself and others. This is a time to transform emotional challenges into opportunities for growth, with the Page of Wands sparking the confidence and optimism needed to move forward with resilience.
♍︎ Virgo Rising Aˢᶜ
This October brings a shift in focus for Virgo Rising as both Mercury and the Sun move through your 2nd and 3rd houses, starting with subtle financial concerns and transitioning into more direct communication and social engagement. Mercury leads the way, bringing attention to resources and financial stability in the 2nd house, though this may feel like a background influence at first. As Mercury moves into your 3rd house, communication and learning take center stage, and the Sun follows shortly after, offering relief from the mental strain and isolation that have been connected to its rulership over your 12th house of hidden struggles and internal challenges. While the Sun's fallen position in Libra may have made these issues more difficult to manage, its move into Scorpio, alongside Mercury, forms a supportive sextile to your Ascendant. This brings clarity to your thoughts, smoothes communication, and helps you find more ease in navigating daily interactions. Enter the Page of Wands, whose fiery, bold energy may feel a little unsettling for your grounded Virgo nature, as it highlights uncomfortable areas like family dynamics, financial entanglements, and personal struggles. However, this energy encourages creative action and risk-taking, urging you to approach these challenges with a fresh perspective. Though the fast-paced nature of fire may clash with your methodical approach, it's an opportunity to break through stagnation and initiate movement in areas that feel stuck. Practical advice for this month? Take small but bold steps toward addressing issues you’ve been avoiding. Embrace the discomfort and use the Page of Wands’ courage to guide you toward growth and progress.
♍︎ Virgo Sun ☉
For Virgo Sun natives, October brings a shift in dynamics as Mercury and the Sun move from Libra into Scorpio. While in Libra, both planets are hard to access, their usual vitality and clarity dimmed, leaving you feeling disconnected and perhaps unable to tap into your usual sharpness. The fallen Sun in Libra, paired with Mercury’s distance, may create a sense of stagnation or difficulty in expressing your ideas and moving forward with plans. However, as both Mercury and the Sun transition into Scorpio mid-month, they form a supportive sextile to your Virgo Sun, offering renewed clarity, cooperation, and intellectual harmony. This aspect infuses your leadership and communication with fresh energy, allowing you to approach tasks with greater precision and strategic insight. Mercury’s move into Scorpio helps you think more deeply and handle complex matters with ease, while the Sun regains its strength, boosting your vitality and authority. Entering this picture, the Page of Wands brings bold and fiery energy that, while unconventional for your grounded nature, can serve as a catalyst for change. The Page encourages you to embrace creativity, take risks, and act with courage, even if it feels out of your comfort zone. Though this energy may feel disruptive at first, it offers a chance to break old patterns and find new, innovative paths forward.
♍︎ Virgo Moon ☽
For Virgo Moon natives, October brings a noticeable shift in emotional dynamics as Mercury and the Sun transition from Libra into Scorpio. While in Libra, both planets remain distant, dimming their usual influence and leaving you feeling emotionally disconnected or uncertain. The fallen Sun in Libra may intensify emotional fluctuations, making it harder to find clarity and stability in your nurturing and self-care routines. As Mercury and the Sun struggle in Libra, your usual emotional resilience may feel weakened, and your ability to express feelings or find comfort may seem out of reach. However, as both planets move into Scorpio mid-month, the energy begins to flow more smoothly. Forming a sextile to your Virgo Moon, this shift offers a supportive environment for emotional growth, cooperation, and mental clarity. Mercury, in particular, helps you process deeper emotions and navigate any inner turmoil with greater insight and understanding. The Sun, gaining strength in Scorpio, revitalizes your sense of emotional authority, helping you regain confidence in your instincts and decisions. Entering the scene, the Page of Wands brings bold, fiery energy that challenges your typically cautious and methodical approach to emotions. Though this energy may feel foreign, it invites you to take creative risks, explore new emotional outlets, and embrace change with courage. While the Page’s fire may clash with your more reserved nature, it offers a powerful opportunity to break through emotional stagnation and discover new ways of nurturing yourself and others.
♎︎ Libra Rising Aˢᶜ
Venus, your ruling planet, begins October in detriment in Scorpio, subtly influencing your 2nd house of financial matters and resources without offering much direct support. However, midway through the month, Venus moves into Sagittarius, bringing cooperation and harmony to your 3rd house of social interactions and communication, forming a sextile to your Ascendant and offering new opportunities. Meanwhile, the Sun, ruler of your 11th house of hopes, dreams, and community, starts the month fallen in Libra within your 1st house, which can challenge your vitality and sense of self. The solar eclipse on October 2nd in your 1st house further amplifies these personal challenges, possibly triggering changes or revelations about your identity, physical appearance, or life path. This is a pivotal time for self-reflection, as the eclipse sheds light on areas of your life where you may feel out of balance or in need of adjustment. As the Sun shifts into your 2nd house in Scorpio, it reenergizes your approach to finances and resources, subtly bringing more stability and empowerment. This month asks you to carefully balance personal needs, financial realities, and social dynamics, blending subtle transformation with gradual empowerment. The Page of Wands enters this picture with a dynamic mix of creativity and bold energy. While its influence supports inspiration in your friendships and daily interactions, it also brings some tension, particularly when balancing your desire for exploration with maintaining harmony in relationships. The Page of Wands urges you to embrace new ventures and creative projects with enthusiasm, while staying mindful of the need for balance in your social and personal life. This month invites you to channel the Page’s bold creativity into meaningful growth, transforming any friction into fuel for leadership and progress.
♎︎ Libra Sun ☉
For those with a Libra Sun, especially those celebrating their birthday this month, happy solar return! The Sun, while fallen in Libra, aligns perfectly with your natural energy, reflecting your innate rhythm and helping you express your balance of diplomacy, charm, and harmony. Rather than feeling hindered, you’re likely to feel empowered, using your grace to navigate relationships and social dynamics with ease. The solar eclipse on October 2nd brings a powerful conjunction with your Sun, amplifying this self-reflection and sparking a deep fusion of personal identity and purpose. This eclipse offers a pivotal moment to reassess your goals and take decisive steps toward aligning your actions with your values. As the Sun transitions into Scorpio later in the month, you may notice a shift toward deeper, more introspective energy, drawing focus to personal values and transformative processes—an ideal time to solidify changes or set strategic plans in motion. Venus, your ruling planet, spends the first half of October in Scorpio, intensifying emotional connections and prompting deeper reflections on relationships and finances. However, as Venus enters Sagittarius, expect a boost of optimism and new opportunities for social and intellectual exploration. The Page of Wands arrives with creative, adventurous energy, urging bold action. Though this energy may feel more intense than your usual harmony-driven approach, it offers a chance to explore new projects with courage. Let this fire energy push you to express your creativity in dynamic and exciting ways.
♎︎ Libra Moon ☽
For those with a Libra Moon, October invites a period of emotional reflection and harmony-seeking, as the Sun's transit through Libra resonates with your Moon’s natural affinity for balance and emotional diplomacy. This alignment helps you maintain equilibrium in relationships and provides a steady foundation for navigating any emotional fluctuations. You may feel at ease in your nurturing role, fostering peace and connection with those around you. The solar eclipse on October 2nd brings a powerful conjunction to your Moon, deepening this emotional reset and offering a profound opportunity to reflect on your inner world. This eclipse may heighten your sensitivity, pushing you to confront emotions you may have previously set aside, while also encouraging a deeper fusion between your needs and the external world. However, as the Sun transitions into Scorpio, the emotional landscape deepens, encouraging introspection and a focus on personal transformation, particularly around themes of emotional security and your deeper feelings. Venus, the Moon’s ruling planet, amplifies this emotional depth, spending the first half of October in Scorpio, intensifying personal relationships and prompting a more profound examination of your emotional needs. As Venus moves into Sagittarius, you'll likely feel a lightening of mood, finding opportunities for emotional exploration and growth through social interactions or intellectual pursuits. The Page of Wands brings an unexpected surge of dynamic energy, urging you to step out of your emotional comfort zone and embrace new emotional experiences with courage. This adventurous energy might feel unconventional, but it can provide the spark needed to approach emotional growth with excitement and curiosity, allowing you to explore fresh perspectives in relationships and personal fulfillment.
♏︎ Scorpio Rising Aˢᶜ
For Scorpio Rising, October presents a mix of subtle challenges and eventual empowerment. Mars, your ruling planet, spends the month fallen in Cancer, occupying your 9th house of philosophy, higher learning, and long-distance journeys. Despite its weakened state, Mars forms a harmonious trine to your Ascendant, offering quiet support and a sense of stability in navigating the broader picture of your life. This trine helps you maintain trust in your long-term goals, even though Mars’ influence is less potent. Meanwhile, the Sun, ruler of your 10th house of career and public reputation, starts the month in Libra, transiting your 12th house. This period poses difficulties for 10th house matters, with the Sun both fallen and in the unsupportive 12th house, which could lead to hidden obstacles or self-imposed limitations in your professional life. However, as the Sun moves into Scorpio 2/3rds through the month, this energy shifts dramatically, entering your 1st house and spotlighting you with renewed vitality, focus on personal identity, and leadership. By month's end, you will likely feel more in control, reenergized, and ready to tackle challenges head-on. Alongside these astrological shifts, the Page of Wands offers subtle hints of movement in key areas like finances, challenges, and achievements. Although its fiery energy may feel foreign to Scorpio’s introspective nature, it invites you to explore bold ideas, particularly in how you manage resources, tackle obstacles, and strive toward long-term goals. This card encourages creative problem-solving and courageous action, reminding you that even small, consistent steps can lead to significant progress. Stay open to inspiration, and let the Page’s fearless spirit guide you toward personal growth this month.
♏︎ Scorpio Sun ☉
For those with a Scorpio Sun, October brings a significant shift in energy, particularly as the Sun moves into Scorpio later in the month, marking the beginning of Scorpio season and some birthday celebrations! The Sun starts the month in Libra, a period where its fallen state may make it harder to express your natural leadership, autonomy, and vitality. During this time, you might feel somewhat drained or disconnected from your usual sense of power, as the Sun’s energy struggles to provide its full support. However, once the Sun enters Scorpio, you’ll experience a powerful surge in vitality, confidence, and clarity, amplifying your personal authority and ambition. This shift marks a return to your natural strength, making it an ideal time to step into the spotlight, set personal goals, and take decisive action. The alignment with the Scorpio Sun allows for a deeper connection to your sense of purpose, helping you navigate the rest of the month with renewed energy and focus. The Page of Wands also plays a role in bringing fresh energy to the mix. Its fiery, bold spirit encourages you to embrace new opportunities for growth, whether through creative projects, personal challenges, or bold decisions. While the fiery nature of the Page may feel slightly out of sync with Scorpio’s typical introspection, it offers a chance to break out of your comfort zone and pursue your passions with enthusiasm. This is a time for action, courage, and embracing the unknown with confidence. Use this month to tap into the Page’s fearless energy and let it guide you toward new beginnings and personal evolution.
♏︎ Scorpio Moon ☽
For those with a Scorpio Moon, October brings a time of deep emotional reflection and transformation. As the Sun begins the month in Libra, it may feel as though your emotional world is somewhat obscured or unsettled, with the Sun’s energy not fully aligning with your Moon’s need for depth, intensity, and emotional connection. This can manifest as emotional fluctuations, with moments of introspection where you might find it harder to access your usual emotional resilience and stability. However, as the Sun moves into Scorpio later in the month, this shift brings a more harmonious alignment with your Moon, allowing you to reconnect with your emotional power and inner strength. This period of emotional renewal offers an opportunity to work through deeper feelings, embrace personal transformation, and nurture your emotional well-being. You’ll feel more in tune with your emotions, making it a perfect time to focus on self-care and emotional growth. The Page of Wands adds an element of bold, fiery energy, urging you to step out of your emotional comfort zone and explore new emotional experiences with courage and curiosity. While this energy may feel a little fast-paced or intense for the usual steady, introspective Scorpio Moon, it offers an invitation to embrace new emotional challenges with excitement. The Page encourages you to be open to spontaneity and to trust in your ability to navigate emotional shifts with creativity and bravery. This month, use the Page’s energy to take small, courageous steps toward emotional growth and transformation, allowing yourself to explore fresh perspectives and break through any emotional barriers.
♐︎ Sagittarius Rising Aˢᶜ
For Sagittarius Rising, October presents a blend of supportive and reflective energies. Jupiter, your ruling planet, is in detriment in Gemini, occupying the 7th house of relationships and partnerships, and turns retrograde on October 9th. This signals a time to pause and reconsider how you navigate close partnerships and social dynamics, bringing a focus on fairness, compromise, and mutual understanding. While Jupiter’s retrograde may slow down progress and temper the expansive optimism you’re accustomed to, it offers an opportunity for deep reflection on what relationships mean to you. Meanwhile, the Sun, ruler of your 9th house of higher learning and spiritual growth, starts the month in Libra, lighting up your 11th house of hopes, dreams, and communities. Its sextile to your Ascendant boosts your personal goals and social connections, while a trine to Jupiter offers moments of cooperation and insight in your partnerships. As the Sun moves into Scorpio and into your 12th house later in the month, the energy turns more introspective, prompting you to retreat into deeper reflection on your long-term goals and spiritual growth. Amid these dynamics, the Page of Wands arrives as a natural ally, fueling your creative pursuits, adventurous spirit, and philosophical growth. Its fiery energy encourages bold action and inspires you to push boundaries, embrace new ideas, and step into uncharted territory. Although Jupiter’s retrograde may slow down external progress, the Page of Wands urges you to remain enthusiastic, pursue your passions, and cultivate growth through courageous and direct action, making October a month for personal exploration and inner growth.
♐︎ Sagittarius Sun ☉
For those with a Sagittarius Sun, October brings a mix of support, reflection, and challenges. The Sun begins the month in Libra, forming a harmonious sextile to your Sagittarius Sun, boosting your natural optimism, leadership, and intellectual curiosity.

The month begins with the Sun in Libra, forming a supportive sextile to your Sagittarius Moon, helping you feel emotionally aligned with your goals and social connections. This brings a sense of balance to your emotional world, making it easier to express your nurturing and adventurous spirit. However, Jupiter, your ruling planet, turns retrograde on October 9th, creating an opposition to your Moon and introducing an emotional tug-of-war. This opposition may lead to moments of emotional resistance or internal conflict, especially regarding how you balance your personal needs with the expectations of others. The retrograde phase encourages you to re-evaluate your emotional attachments and how you nurture yourself and those around you.

♑︎ Capricorn Rising Aˢᶜ
For Capricorn Rising, October presents a combination of tension, support, and a push toward personal growth. Saturn, your ruling planet, remains retrograde in Pisces, steadily offering a stabilizing sextile to your Ascendant throughout the month. This slow retrograde encourages deep reflection on how you communicate and manage daily routines, giving you time to reassess your approach to responsibilities. Meanwhile, the Sun, ruler of your 8th house, transits through Libra in your 10th house, squaring your Ascendant and amplifying issues related to career, shared resources, or emotional challenges. The Sun’s fallen condition makes it harder to gain recognition or support in professional settings, while also bringing up themes of vulnerability or loss. However, as the Sun moves into Scorpio and your 11th house later in the month, it forms a sextile to the Ascendant and a trine to Saturn, bringing much-needed cooperation and trust from your social networks and helping you focus on long-term goals with renewed discipline. Supporting these themes is the Page of Wands, adding an energetic but uncomfortable spark to areas such as your private life, fears, and autonomy. While the Page’s fiery influence offers the possibility of creative growth and bold new endeavors, it pushes you to face uncomfortable challenges head-on. The quick energy of the Page of Wands encourages you to step out of your comfort zone, particularly in dealing with personal losses, emotional fears, or any areas where you feel a loss of control.
