October 2026 Astrology!! Retrograde Season is Upon Us. youtu.be/sBSMaxQQgfU

welp, we have the flu running through our house and it's run right into me. I'm going to take a few days off from astrology content. my brain is so fuzzy. 🥴🫪

💫 wednesday october 28 venus rx in libra opposite chiron rx in aries is exact today and continuing the healing of relationship wounds and self-worth. where have you been compromising yourself to keep the peace? where are you still looking for someone else to make you feel chosen when you haven't fully chosen yourself? this isn't about pointing fingers or making someone else responsible for your healing. it's about recognizing where old wounds are still influencing how you love, what you tolerate, and what you believe you deserve. you can love someone deeply and still keep yourself a priority, in the process. the gemini moon conjunct uranus rx can show you something you thought you understood before. but it may look completely different when you finally see it from another angle. don't be so attached to being right that you miss what the moment is trying to show you. the moon sextile saturn rx in aries gives us an opportunity to sit with those realizations and do something constructive with them. awareness is one thing. taking responsibility for what you do with it is another. sometimes growth looks like having the conversation you've been avoiding. sometimes it looks like no longer needing to have it at all. not every uncomfortable truth is a reason to walk away, but it's worth asking yourself why certain truths have been so uncomfortable to face.

THE SCORPIO BRAIN: I KNOW SOMETHING AIN’T RIGHT. ♏ 'i can feel the shift in your energy before you even open your mouth, and you’re wondering why i suddenly got quiet. baby, because something changed, and my brain just opened an investigation. i noticed the pause, the look, the change in your tone. and now i'm trying to figure out what doesn't add up. i'm not looking for drama. i just want the truth. i'd rather hear something uncomfortable than sit around questioning what's real.' the scorpio brain wants to know what's underneath the surface. the motives, the unspoken feelings, the things people hope nobody else notices. but the real work is knowing the difference between intuition and old wounds trying to protect you. not every feeling is proof, and even scorpio has to learn when to stop digging. they love deeply, but trust means something to them. they can forgive you without giving you the same access ever again. so don't mistake their silence for ignorance or their patience for permission. often times they stop trying to figure you out and replace it with why they gave you so much access in the first place. ♏

this is why the chronic lifelong bone marrow cancer I was diagnosed with in 2021 is no longer "rare". benzene is in our air everywhere. they are murdering us and calling it legal.

remember that you were written in the stars and made of stardust ✨

💫 tuesday october 27 the taurus moon opposes mercury rx in scorpio and squares jupiter in leo today, and there may be a tense tug of war with what we know, what we feel, and what we want to believe. the taurus moon wants something solid, something we can trust. mercury retrograde in scorpio is digging beneath the surface, bringing old conversations, buried feelings, and uncomfortable truths back into the picture. meanwhile, jupiter in leo can make everything feel bigger than it actually is, especially when pride gets involved. be mindful of digging your heels in just because you're convinced you're right. not every uncomfortable conversation is a threat, and not every feeling needs to become a reaction. there are times when the truth can challenge the version of the story we've been holding onto. the moon moves into gemini at 9:02 pm edt, shifting the energy from holding our ground to questioning what we think we know. a little curiosity will take you a lot further than needing to have the last word.

these retrogrades are showing you that, sometimes the clarity we need doesn't come from getting someone else to explain themselves. it comes from finally being honest with ourselves about what we've already seen.

the movie Idiocracy is basically this, and the signs are deafening.

💫 monday, october 26 the taurus full moon squares pluto in aquarius, and the sun in scorpio squares pluto too. we're dealing with power, control, resistance, and the things that come to the surface when we can no longer pretend something isn't bothering us. this is where you start seeing what you're attached to, what you're trying to control, and what you're holding onto because letting go means facing an uncomfortable truth. not everything that feels like a threat is something you need to fight. it could also be showing you where you've outgrown an old way of being. the moon squares mars in leo later evening, adding another layer of tension. pride can get involved, reactions can get bigger than the situation, and the need to have the last word can get the best of people. meanwhile, venus rx in libra begins opposing chiron rx in aries, exact on october 28. relationships can bring old wounds around rejection, reciprocity, self-worth, and being chosen back to the surface. pay attention to where you're compromising yourself to keep the peace, or where someone else's inability to meet you is making you question your own worth. you can love someone and still recognize where the relationship hurts. you can want peace without abandoning yourself to get it. this energy is asking you to be honest about the difference.

about 2.5 hours until the moon is at 100% full, she's so bright 🤩🌕 @MichaeLeoRising

💫 sunday, october 25 venus rx has regressed back into libra early this morning, bringing relationship dynamics, old patterns, and the balance between self and others back into focus. we’re taking another look at what we give, what we receive, and where we may have compromised ourselves just to keep things peaceful. the aries moon trines jupiter, giving us a little push to trust ourselves, before meeting up with chiron rx and opposing venus rx in libra. this can bring old wounds around independence, rejection, and relationships to the surface. the tension is between honoring what we need and keeping everyone else comfortable. you can love someone and still recognize where you’ve been abandoning yourself. the moon moves into taurus this evening, setting the tone for the full moon at 12:11 am edt. this taurus full moon is in a tight square to pluto in aquarius, with a wider opposition to chiron rx in aries. this is where things can get uncomfortable, because pluto doesn’t let us keep pretending something is stable when the foundation is changing. we’re looking at our attachments, our values, our security, and what we’ve been holding onto out of fear rather than genuine alignment. this full moon is asking us to get honest about what actually makes us feel secure. not what looks good on the outside, not what we’ve convinced ourselves we need, but what gives us a solid foundation to build from. sometimes the thing we’re afraid to lose is the very thing keeping us from growing.
