Happy October! Here in Oakland the leaves have changed, the cool crisp air of fall is in the air, and flu season has begun! This last summer was intense for a lot of people, and now that fall is in effect, I feel like a lot of us are now processing the whiplash that was the first half of the year. This is a good time to begin really taking care of your health both physically and mentally. We may need to disconnect from people for a few days and regroup so that we can hear ourselves on a deeper level than maybe what we have been able to tune into up until now.
Mercury entering Scorpio this week will allow us to enter the subconscious and hidden realms more easily over the next two months, and with the retrograde station on October 31st, we will be working through a lot of healing from our past. Take this week to regroup and plan where you want to end up before the year is over.

Monday 9/30
Moon enters Scorpio
We start our week out with the Moon in its Fall in Scorpio. This could have us feeling moody and reclusive today and sometimes our worst traits come out when the Moon is passing through its Fall. We could feel resentments or jealous feelings today if we give in to any comparison games, and our Venus Square to Pluto makes it hard to trust the motives of others right now.
Strong Aspects During the Day PST
Moon opposition Uranus in Taurus RX 11:55 AM
Tension in the morning hours is enhanced and we may find ourselves up against some things not going our way today. Try not to let any detours get in the way of your happiness. Go with the flow as best you can and find ways to decompress. Spending time in nature and getting out of the rat race or mundane reality could be helpful right now.
Venus in Libra Square Pluto RX in Capricorn 9:14 PM
This transit is difficult for us when it comes to our relationship to financial matters as we well as our energy we are bringing into our relationships. There is room for envy and mistrust to take place this week under the influence of this transit, and we could find ourselves needing to evaluate our own emotional patterns and what needs healing for us during this time. Being mindful of how we project our circumstances onto others, and what is a result of our own actions is important. There is potential for us to feel resentment or animosity towards anyone not fulfilling our needs right now. This transit has also been related to sexual trauma, this may be a triggering time and it is beneficial to find help if you need it.
Tuesday 10/1
Moon in Scorpio
We start the first day of October with the Moon in moody Scorpio. We may need some time today to rejuvenate away from others. This energy could have us feeling tense or hyper sensitive and we benefit from taking a social media detox and doing something spiritual in nature that helps to ground our energy in a constructive way. Don’t allow yourself to get into comparison games right now as it is likely to spawn lower vibrational patterns within the self that is not healthy for your overall well being.
Strong Aspects During the Day PST
Moon Trine Neptune RX in Pisces 6:13 AM
We may awake after some powerful dreams this morning and it is beneficial for us to dream journal them, or try to remember any symbolism at this time. This transit is positive for creatives and artistic people as it allows for the vision to take place on what needs to be done next for a project you might be working on. This is a beneficial day for spiritual work on the etheric plane.
Moon Sextile Pluto RX in Capricorn 12:44 PM
We may recognize things around our feeling states that need to be transmuted into new or different energy during the hours of this transit. Maybe we have felt triggered by something and we are identifying it within the deeper self and ready to let go or move away from that pattern of behavior. Take this time to allow yourself to do some shadow work. Allow yourself to acknowledge parts of yourself that need transmuting and healing.
