October Overview for Aquarius
Your own ruler is retrograde half the month, and Saturn's been backing up since the start of it, so don't expect any grand announcements about who you are. You're not supposed to know yet. That's fine. The New Moon in Libra on October 10 lands in your socializing zone and wants you out of the house, even if it's just to sit in someone's kitchen while they cook and you narrate opinions nobody asked for.
Mid-month gets quieter. Pluto finally goes direct on October 17, which untangles a knot you forgot you were carrying around in your shoulders. Then the Sun moves into Scorpio on October 23, pulling your attention toward money, debts, other people's resources, the stuff you'd rather not audit but should.
By the Full Moon in Taurus on October 26, something that's been stuck for weeks just releases. Like a jar lid finally giving.
