October Overview for Gemini
You start October with your phone buzzing and five tabs open, which, fine, is just a Tuesday for you. The New Moon in Libra on October 10 lands in your social sector and wants you to actually pick which conversation matters instead of replying to all of them at once. That's harder than it sounds. Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are all retrograde this month too, which means old questions about structure, freedom, and what you actually believe keep resurfacing like a song stuck in your head.
Things sharpen when the Sun moves into Scorpio on October 23. Suddenly small talk isn't enough and people want you to commit to an opinion. You might resist that. You're built for options, not verdicts. But the Full Moon in Taurus on October 26 sits in your money and values corner, lit up, asking what you're actually willing to pay for, in time or cash or attention.
