Libra season is generally a busy and outgoing time for all you cosmic lions, so your Leo horoscope for October 2023 promises lots of social connection and mental stimulation. Your phone will really start blowing up come October 4, when chatty Mercury joins the sun in your communication sector. Catch up with friends and make some appearances at your favorite local spots.
The first week of October also brings some destiny-aligning magic, as romantic Venus in your sign makes a lucky trine to the North Node of Fate—blessing you with the power to attract meaningful new adventures, expansive relationships, and personal growth opportunities. And speaking of Venus, the love planet will finally move into Virgo on October 8 after spending four long months (and a retrograde) in your sign. This summer’s extended Venusian tour has brought about all sorts of shifts regarding your tastes, values, and relationships—and now’s a time to build up your sparkly Leo confidence and stand tall in your evolution. You may feel like a different person than you did in spring. Meanwhile, the new moon eclipse on October 14 will usher in all sorts of new information and ideas that’ll help you communicate your current truth to the world around you.
Once deep and introspective Scorpio season begins on October 23, you’ll be ready to take a break from the busy work and social stuff that’s been filling your free time. At this point, the sun, Mercury, and Mars cuddle up in your domestic fourth house, encouraging you to get to the bottom of any emotional family drama and create a more stable environment at home.
Having a comforting place to retreat is especially important toward the end of the month, as the full moon lunar eclipse in Taurus on October 28 is solidifying some major shifts in your career trajectory. Now’s your chance to emancipate yourself from insecurity or imposter syndrome. You’re meant for big things, and this lunation is helping you wrap up an important chapter of this story so you can make way for another. Happy Halloween!
