Venus in Scorpio pairs beautifully with Mars in Cancer, creating a perfect opportunity for reconciliation and deepening those bonds that matter most.
Expect a whirlwind of insights on transformational planetary movements, starting with the vibrant energy perfect for those unexpected yet meaningful conversations at home. With Jupiter going retrograde on October 9th, there's much to learn about flexibility—especially for those with a Gemini vibe. October 11th marks a paradigm shift as Pluto transitions from Capricorn to Aquarius, signaling a break from old norms and ushering in revolutionary changes. We discuss the hope for systemic transformation in America, as the cosmic shift from earth to air signs promises a future of renewal and innovation.
As we embrace the intense yet enlightening Scorpio season, the focus turns inward—perfect for introspection and self-awareness. We've got astrological insights on the challenges you might face, from the Sun in Libra squaring Mars in Cancer to Venus in Scorpio opposing Uranus in Taurus. Balancing desires and dealing with unexpected change is key. As October progresses, prepare for pivotal business decisions and potential mental health challenges.

Hey, lovely listeners. So last week's episode left us mid-conversation about the cosmic showdown on October 5th when Mars and Mercury squared off, and then we accidentally left you hanging. Oops, sorry about that. Definitely did not try to build suspense. We promise that cliffhanger was an accident. But now we're back with the rest of the episode. No interruptions this time. If you haven't listened to the first part yet, go ahead and check that out before diving in. For everyone else, let's pick up where we left off and dive right back into the celestial action.
Speaker 2:They're just very in tune with it, whether they know it or not, and their moodiness definitely mimics what's going on in the sky. So I've been really paying attention and I can see this day particularly. I actually just put it on my calendar like, just expect fights among siblings, just expect it it's. It would be dumb not to. And if you have a day where they don't fight, freaking good, high five, yeah you. But otherwise, if you expect it, then you know, oh, this is the day where, literally, the planets in the sky are not they're fighting, mercury and Mars square to each other. That's a fight.
Speaker 1:Hmm. Oh my God, that's a fight. I want to be alone that day.
Speaker 2:Right, that is a fight. I want to be alone that day. Right, that is a fight. So we have to be mindful and help our kids through that, Help our spouses through that. I can see now this is a Saturday, so I can see where you know if they're home from school or whatever. That's relationships. I'm actually teaching a relationship class the night before that. I should make sure to let everybody know that they might be fighting tomorrow. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Gotcha Things you never want to know.
Speaker 2:Well, for real, by the way, tomorrow you might have a huge fight, yeah, but if you know that, you can also recognize that maybe you need to remove yourself from the situation. If you're feeling a little bit spicy, right.
Speaker 1:Exactly. You can check yourself. You can be like you know, you get the feeling bubbling up and you get like oh, but then you realize oh my God, what was it that Lauren Helena said? Right, oh yeah, mars, square, mercury, maybe, maybe it's not all just me.
Speaker 2:I mean, it is me, but it's also being provoked by something Mercury and Libra like this is the mind of the lawyer.
Speaker 2:So, if you've been wanting to state your case for a while, if stuff has been building up in the background of your life or maybe you're building up resentments towards you know, let's say, my spouse used to leave he doesn't anymore because we've worked through it but for years he would make coffee and he has a pour over coffee maker and he would let it sit on the side of the sink and drain and then he'd leave and go to work and then I'm home with the kids and then this drip coffee thing is dripping down into my sink like staining it and this was like one of those things that just crawled under my skin every day, right, and I remember asking nicely, and he just like, ok, yeah, I'll work on it, but then, like it never did, this is a day October 5th is a day where those types of little things can build, build, build, build.
Speaker 2:And then boom, they come out with, like this big lawyer, like case right, where you're like making your statement to the judges and you're like, right, it can get really intense with Mercury in Libra. So, especially, like you said, with your home, if there's certain things going on in your home, or like a person in your home has been doing a certain thing that's been driving you nuts, maybe they leave their towel here, maybe, whatever it is, this is a day where that shit's going to like come out, I promise you.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I can already feel it here I know right, yeah, let's move on from that day. What else is happening? Yeah, let's just leave that for now. So on October 8th we have two things going on. We have Venus in Scorpio making a trine to Mars in Cancer A trine, very nice and also Mercury in Libra still trying to Jupiter in Gemini.
Speaker 2:Okay, so you get to make up, yeah, from the fight you had on the 5th Exactly.
Speaker 1:Now, this is make up energy. Yes, yes, make up, yeah, from the fight you had on the fifth. Now, this is exactly make up energy, yes, yes.
Speaker 1:So first we have that water trying between venus, venus and mars, scorpio and cancer. So lovely, yes, so so lovely, like this is okay. So mars is still in cancer. This is protective, like protective of the home, you know, fighter for the home and family, uh. And then venus all about relationship and and value in deep, intense scorpio, so like intensifying and deepening and, yeah, having maybe a deep conversation about that fight you had the other day, like I'm so sorry, this is, this is what happens, but you know what I realize it's because of this thing, and you let someone into the deep space of where the thing, the annoyance actually comes from, and you work something out together. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:In my dreamland. Well, that's exactly what the energy looks like, though. It looks like making up and working it out. Yeah, All right, cool, thank you working it out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, all right. And because at the same time we have that uh, air trine between mercury and jupiter, libra and gemini. Mercury and libra that lawyer you said, but also you know that one who wants balance and peace and then jupiter and gemini, who's just like everything works for me, everything's good. Good, let's do that. And like super curious.
Speaker 2:I like that, that's. I love the curiosity. That's my favorite part of this one. October 8th feels very because of that Venus trying Mars we already have like makeup, energy with relationships and then because Mercury trying Jupiter, we now have curiosity. Curiosity about, well, why did you feel that way? I felt this way because, and like, really work it out, like get at the details Right With the Libra and Gemini, we're going to, we're going to talk about the details of like how can we make this better so that this doesn't happen again? Oh, you guys, seriously in your family, if you are having some struggles of repeating patterns, I think the fifth, something's going to blow up. And then the eighth, you'll be able to really kind of get at the nitty gritty and resolve it.
Speaker 1:Yes, what weekday is this? Is this like a Tuesday? That's a Tuesday Tuesday. Yep, this is a great day, like. Don't make any plans because I feel like there's going to be a lot of spontaneous, really good conversations. Yeah, you know yeah well, I guess, make up plans because they would probably happen with anyone. This is a good conversation around the home, yeah, like spend some time with your spouse and family members, because it's it's a lot about the home, I think, for this estate yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2:Oh, that feels so much better than the fifth. Yeah, let's move on October 9th. Jupiter is going to stop what he's doing and he's going to go backwards. Make sure that everybody who's been experiencing his energy recently intensely in that Gemini realm. He's going to go backwards a little bit, so he goes retrograde, and this is where we get to learn some flexibility in that Gemini realm. He's going to go backwards a little bit, so he goes retrograde, and this is where we get to learn some flexibility. We get to take our lessons in Gemini of understanding and now we get to look at the other side of the coin. Right, we were looking at one side of the coin going forward, and now we're flipping the coin and we're going backwards, so we get to have a different perspective. I really love this because he's going back over my rising and then coming back over my rising, I'm like, yeah, do it again, do it again. I can't. Greeting, greeting, greeting.
Speaker 2:I am because you know what the last couple of years the last couple of years have been rough, especially financially, and we've been working and waiting, and working and waiting, and this year is like I'm like. This is deserved. This is deserved. We've been working for this.
Speaker 1:Yes, and it happens once every 12 years, so it doesn't come around too often.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, so he's going retrograde and that's going to be. He'll be retrograde, I think, until the end of the year, so he's going to be going backwards for a while.
Speaker 1:Then something else exciting happens on october 11, pluto will be going direct in capricorn and leave capricorn now for the last time in our lifetime probably. I mean, I keep thinking like we don't know how long people are going to live nowadays, but if we live like around 100 years or whatever, if we live under 200 years, it's not gonna happen again. We're not gonna see this again. So, yeah, spends a little bit of time in capricorn and I think in beginning of next year, uh, goes into aquarius and leaves capricorn for good.
Speaker 2:So this is the last stint of pluto and capricorn I'm ready to like get the fuck out of there man. Go get out, go Go to Aquarius, please. Yeah, that's what I'm hoping for. I love the Aquarius energy and I'm I'm ready for the revolution, I'm ready for the rebellion and I think we need to get out of traditional stuck Capricorn.
Speaker 1:Yes, and this is so like all planets goes back and forth, except for the sun and the moon, so they go retrograde and then they go direct and retrograde and direct. So Pluto has been doing this for a while, as you all know. Doing this dance between Aquarius, capricorn, aquarius, capricorn and Capricorn is so much about, yeah, structure, hierarchy, the old guard, very sort of father, sort of energy.
Speaker 2:Government energy, very governmental Government energy, yeah.
Speaker 1:And I'm thinking like banks and like just pillars and state and government and things like that too. And now, for this months leading up to I don't remember if it's february or something that pluto goes into aquarius in 2025, but up until then, I feel like pluto is just gonna be like like a fire. Like a fire just like burning its way through the last degrees of Capricorn and sort of burn things down. I feel like there's a lot of shifting in those very harshly set boxes that we have been living in.
Speaker 2:Yeah, especially over here in America Especially, we've got government issues. We've got all kinds of rules and regulations and lots of, lots and lots of government power stuff that we're dealing with. We're really struggling over here on a whole level. That is, it's a real systemic issue, right, it's like a systemic illness that's spreading. That's what's happening here and it's really affecting everybody who isn't to the 1% at the top right and it's everybody is feeling it, whether it's financially or whether it's, um, you know, whether with food and grocery prices or with the rules and regulations of women's bodies or the banks or the housing system and how much money houses cost right now, and like, like it's all a little bit messed up and I'm waiting for pluto in aquarius to just shake shit up and dump it all out and restart.
Speaker 1:I hope yeah, yeah, because that's an air sign, and then going from an earth sign to an air sign is a massive shift in speed.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah so the 13th, we've got a Mercury shift and Mercury's exiting Libra and going into Scorpio, so we pulled our Scorpio card before and so we've got another Scorpio energy coming in here, which means we're going to go deep. Our minds want to get into the details, the depth. We want to penetrate all of the nuances of like, what, why, how right. Our mind wants to know. So, if you've been meaning to study something or take a new course or whatnot, this is when you can really dive in. I just heard someone in my head say oh, piano, I've been doing piano lessons, but I've been not doing it consistently like I want to. I've been doing piano lessons, but I've been not doing it consistently like I want to, and I feel my, I feel myself wanting to do it and just not quite there yet. I'm like, I think I'm, I think I need that energy. Yeah, like, force me down into it, right?
Speaker 2:So I like that we might have to deal with some harsh stuff though, because Scorpio does tend to bring up the stuff that's been hiding. So, our mind may have to deal with some things. We've been, you know, maybe keeping in there since last time Mercury was in Scorpio. We may maybe shoved it in the closet in the back, and now we've got to clean that out and deal with it, whether it's you know, traumas or family dramas, or maybe this is a great time, if you've been thinking about it, this is a great time to start therapy.
Speaker 2:I love scorpio season for starting therapy yeah, that's, that's really good.
Speaker 1:And I'm also thinking about like, yeah, it's really intense and and there's going to be more revelations, like things come up to the surface with Scorpio energy. But also Scorpio is very, very, not shy, very what's the word you know like sort of like hiding in a corner, but not really hiding, just like being like a stone face, you know like not letting anyone in.
Speaker 1:Yeah, observing and not really letting anyone in, but really seeing everything with your laser beam eyes and uh, but not revealing anything about yourself. But so that that could also be good to remember, like to also soften into that scorpio energy, like you don't have to be so, maybe you you will if you think about it when you're in scorpio season, if you feel like, oh, maybe I'm a little bit, maybe I've created a too harsh of a shell here, because scorpio, I think why it has such a high shell is because it's so intense, it has so many feelings, so it has to sort of have that shell. But it could be good to open it up a little bit and let people in, because that's when therapy is going to work. If you let the therapist into, you know your mind and your psyche.
Speaker 2:Yeah, for real. And therapy is just such a great way to just untangle all of the various deep feelings and thoughts right. So we've got the feelings of Scorpio and the thoughts with Mercury, so the therapy is a great way to help just kind of unravel that all and make it make sense and instead of being a big tangled mess it now can get knitted into a beautiful blanket right and now it has a purpose yeah I love that on october 14th the sun is in libra and will be in a square to mars, in cancer sun and mars square.
Speaker 1:It's not comfortable no uh, those are two very sort of me energies.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they want to feel good both of those want to feel good and when they're square to each other. That doesn't feel good no.
Speaker 1:So we have, like life force, sun and then mars, that little fighter how do we sun and libra? It's you wanting to just be in harmony? Yeah, feel good, be comfortable. And then there's that mars in cancer who is maybe still I don't know annoyed about things in your home, like things are not, as you, in the way you want it to be. Or there's, um, maybe there's a visitor coming to your home more often, maybe a partner, a friend to your partner, who's intruding into your home. You don't want this person here, but they're in your home. I don't like that. I don't know. Now, I'm just. I think I'm losing what I'm talking about that makes sense it definitely does.
Speaker 2:It almost feels like outside energies or or like impacting the inside environment, right, so it might not even be someone in your home, but it could be like the school system, right? Or like kids' homework or your work, right, coming home. Right, it's almost like energy spilling into the home from like this outside action, right, so Mars is the action and it's almost like coming in. So you have to be discerning. And the sun and Libra, remember anytime Libra is active, we have a situation where there is the other right, it's it's not just us involved. Libra energy is always involved with someone else. So that's why I keep thinking someone else is, whether it's the boss or the teacher or a friend, their energy is kind of coming in. And then Mars is being that ego, that protector, that fighter, is getting irritated. There's that irritation between the squares. So no, I get you, I'm following your description, I wasn't. So no, I get you, I'm following your description, I wasn't. I love that when you're like I'm on a tangent. Nope, I lost it, it's gone.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and we have another transit for the same day and that is another challenging one.
Speaker 2:I don't like this one no.
Speaker 1:No, I really don't like this one. And on the same day. Okay, so what's happening is that Venus in Scorpio will be in opposition to Uranus in Taurus, and just Venus and Taurus, just those two planets opposite each other, those two signs are so stubborn, so there's a stubbornness with the signs.
Speaker 2:And then you've got Venus in Scorpio. So she really wants to go deep, she wants to feel intensely, she wants that Like. Venus is like yes, I really want maybe a deep tissue massage or whatever. But then Uranus and Taurus, we've got our nervous system and in this stubborn want, what I want, kind of energy. So I feel like we've got this opposite, where Venus is relational. So again we've got other people involved, usually or money, and then triggering our nervous system. So it's almost like this ping pong match or tennis match between our nervous system and our values, our money, our relationships.
Speaker 1:I don't like that yeah, yeah, this is like a possibility, yeah, like meeting people or maybe in your home, that you will just not have the same values right now as as a family member or a close friend, and that will cause, uh like, a little blowout, blow, blow out blow up.
Speaker 2:Blow up whatever something's gonna blow because of urinus, it's gonna blow.
Speaker 1:Uh, it is just blows yeah, it really does.
Speaker 2:And the two transits, they're both aggravating and they both kind of support each other's aggravation they do yeah, it's not like this is like oh, this one helps counteract this one.
Speaker 2:It's almost like this one irritates this one even more, like they're equally as annoying to each other. The sun square to mars and venus opposite uranus. Like I just want you guys to take monday. The sun square to Mars and Venus opposite Uranus. Like I just want you guys to take Monday, the 14th, and maybe, if you can take off from work, maybe if you can like take lunch and just go for a walk, do whatever you can to make yourself and your nervous system calm.
Speaker 2:I feel like whenever Uranus is involved, we have to honor the nervous system above all, because once the nervous system gets triggered, that's going to then go into the values. So then we're going to have a value and a self worth issue. If we have a value and a self worth issue, now we've got the sun, which is our identity, having an argument with with Mars, which is our ego. So now we got a whole freaking shit show going on because our nervous system got tasered. Yeah, yep, october 14th. Circle your calendar and just do whatever you can to create peace and harmony and value your nervous system that day. This is my advice to you guys, the middle of October?
Speaker 2:Yeah, definitely, because I'm gonna circle that one on my. This is like yeah, yeah, big circle.
Speaker 1:Because even if you you know you can only do, you do your best, the very best you can with yourself. That doesn't mean that you're not going to bump into others who are super aggravated by by these energies, or that things happen along your day even though you're at home having a home spa session or whatever. Things are still going to happen. But if you're aware of this energy and you are already trying to support your nervous system, your leaps and bounds, you know ahead. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, absolutely. And knowing that these two transits are coming. This is why we do these readings, because now, as a mom, I have the 14th circled and highlighted and everything and just like be at peace, right. Do whatever I can on that Monday to find peace and harmony within myself so that I can help maintain all of the chaos that's going to happen around me with the toddlers, the teenagers, my husband and the other people I have no association with, but I'm sure their energy will trickle into my life somehow.
Speaker 1:So this is why we do these, because these days right here, and if I could say something like don't do this, it would be, you know, signing a lease, or like buying a big thing, like bringing something into your life that is going to have a huge value to you, like venus, space, or or focus around your sun and vitality, because it's, it's just, it doesn't have a very supportive energy, and so if you can just put that off to the day afterward, a couple days.
Speaker 2:Yep, yep maybe wait. I don't know what's coming, but well, maybe wait the next day, then venus is uh trying to neptune, so we may be. There's a, there's a lovely flow there. So maybe pour yourself into some creative projects, into some art, or really utilize your money, because, again, venus is involved. So utilize your money in a way that feels right for you. That's really in a line with your energy, so maybe spend your money the next day, the 15th on october 17th, venus enters sagittarius nice, going from water to fire.
Speaker 1:And also we will have a full moon in aries on this day, october 17th.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yes, yes aries girl, I like this one. Do you know the degree of it? Did you check that?
Speaker 1:no, no, I do not don't say five, because that's my well, my son's at eight so so what should we expect that day?
Speaker 1:Well, full moons Now we're out of the eclipse season, so now it's a regular full moon, which is a lot about releasing, and I feel like after these last couple of days there's going to be a lot to release. So I feel like this full moon just really take the opportunity to go full out, have a full moon ritual session and just release. And it's an Aries and it's a very powerful fire sign. It's because Aries is so cool, because it's a very new energy. It's the baby of the zodiac, yeah, and not just baby, as in like does things without thinking. It does that sometimes, but it's also like a very potent, pure energy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I feel like it's. It's. I love that you said pure because it does feel, because it is, it has a childlike innocence to it. Yeah, typically not a vindictive energy. It's usually like, just well, I was just, I was just trying that out, I was just playing, I'm sorry. It's usually more playful than vindictive or sneaky or anything like that. It's usually just really just purely trying to explore and have fun and play yeah.
Speaker 2:This one's called the Super Hunter Moon. Hmm, the Super Hunter Moon in Aries ignites a firestorm of courage, action and pioneering spirit. I still didn't find the degree yet.
Speaker 1:hang on, look at oh yeah, it's a very pioneering kind of energy because aries is a very leader, like vibe. So yeah, and also on the same day we're not done. We actually have one more thing here. So Venus will go into Sag, full moon in Aries, and also Venus sextile to Pluto.
Speaker 2:All right.
Speaker 1:So this is nice. Okay, I like this.
Speaker 2:So the full moon, just for reference, is happening at 24 degrees Aries. Okay, nice, yeah, yeah, that is nice I like this energy coming up All Nice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, that is nice, I like this energy coming up.
Speaker 2:All right, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so, and if you have anything then around. Did you say 20,?
Speaker 2:24 degrees 24 degrees Aries and Libra Yep.
Speaker 1:Yeah, If you have anything around 24 degrees in Aries or Libra or what are the other axes right across.
Speaker 2:Capricorn and Cancer.
Speaker 1:Cancer. Oh, I do, oh cool. Okay, yeah, or maybe not cool, I'll take it back. I just saw your brain do that Like oh cool, oh wait a minute, yeah, so if you have anything around those those uh signs that agree it will, it will test you a lot and if you have something around um aries, uh sagittarius or uh leo, 24 degrees, it will be a more. The more fun side of the full moon energy, the more easy flowing, yes, perhaps the flowing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right. What else is happening?
Speaker 1:mercury will be in scorpio and trying to saturn in pisces on october 21st all right so got again.
Speaker 2:Mercury is in the deep depths of Scorpio and Saturn is all about being mature and healing with Pisces. So we've got go to the depths with your mind right and really explore that transformation. And Saturn is be mature and take responsibility with Pisces for the healing and the compassion and the empathy that we need to do. So this is a phenomenal day If you've not done meditation in a while, if you've not gone into, maybe done a hypnosis session or just taken time, taken time to really be alone with your thoughts.
Speaker 2:This Monday, the 21st is a freaking phenomenal energy to do that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, this is great for even important business decisions or signing contracts, things like that. This would be a great day for these things, and Mercury and Scorpio would be able to go through all the contracts and read all of the fine print and it would be able to say I don't like this right here, let's change this. And Saturn and Pisces would feel very good about compassionately asking for this change. Right, nicely, maybe authoritatively, stating that this needs to change. We're not. We're not signing this contract like this.
Speaker 1:So this is.
Speaker 2:I love this energy, I really do. I don't think I would normally say I love Scorpio and Pisces and Mercury, but when you really think about how this could play out, it feels like being mature in this because Saturn's in Pisces. I feel like Pisces kind of softens Saturn a little bit and softens his harshness, and then with Mercury and Scorpio we can really really be powerful about using our mind and our speech in a way that gets us what we want, gets us our needs met.
Speaker 2:I'm going to put that on my calendar sign contracts this day.
Speaker 1:First you have to find some contracts to sign. Oh, I'm going to, they're coming, okay great, they're coming. Yeah, and the day after this is when officially witchy season is beginning. The sun will enter Scorpio, but just before that it will make a square to Pluto and Capricorn. Just a little bit before that the sun will be in Libra, square to Pluto and Capricorn, and then, poof, enter Scorpio. We'll just blow past that one, we don't want to deal with that. Before that, sun will be in libra, square to pluto and capricorn, and then enter so this will just blow past that one.
Speaker 2:We don't want to. I don't want to deal with that energy, no, sun, square, pluto.
Speaker 1:Just those three words, um, make me a little tense. Square squares are very tense. Energy, uh, sun and pluto. It's always just a power struggle day. This is just power struggles.
Speaker 2:Yep, yep, we just had a Venus square Pluto, I think, this past weekend, and I felt it coming for three or four days before, I felt it three or four days after and my family was just. It was literally just one fight after another, whether it was the baby hitting the little girl or the teenager yelling at the other one or dishing out attitude at me, and I was like, oh, you're lucky, I know what's going on in the planets. You're lucky, cause it was, it was ugly, it was just ugly energy and I just kept reminding myself Venus and Pluto, venus and Pluto, it's okay. Venus and Pluto, venus and Pluto, it's okay.
Speaker 2:Venus and Pluto, we got this, so that was. That was really tense. But I think October 22nd, with the sun square to Pluto, that's our identity. So we may have some power struggles there, you know.
Speaker 1:Yeah within also. Yeah for sure, yeah, yeah, but like this also, you must not forget, like as as much as you and I talk about, like oof, how tense it's going to be, how uncomfortable I mean it will be, but all of those things make our muscles a lot better. These things out, I mean, um, if you, if you use these energies, uh, and that analogy that you always say, it's like going to the gym at first it's very comfortable, but after a while you're gonna build some muscle, you're gonna be great at it. You're not even gonna break a sweat. So it's the same here you can use this energy and really become strong, exactly. I mean, it is uncomfortable, you're not gonna get away from that. Yeah, it will be uncomfortable, but, man, those are the things that make us grow Heck.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I was so proud of myself this weekend with the square to Venus and Pluto because I saw it as an opportunity to practice my peaceful parenting goals and my compassionate energy, and I really leaned into my knowledge of the energy in the sky and went okay, how do I really want to respond to this? Okay, so I really would like to choke them, like Homer chokes Bart Simpson all the time. Okay, but I'm not going to, but maybe I can like tell them that I want to choke them like Homer. Right, so, like I, I utilize this knowledge and then I worked through it internally really well, I was really proud of myself, but, but it was a workout, absolutely. It was a mental workout to stay in this place of kindness and not ring somebody's neck. So that does give us that opportunity and remind yourself that all of these energies happen for us to practice. This is literally an opportunity for you to practice your Earth school mission, right? Yep, not always fun practice.
Speaker 1:No, but that's how you learn.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so now we have Scorpio season. Scorpio season is october 22nd and into november and I personally love this because it feels like sweater season. It feels like time to really like cozy in and do your all the things you couldn't do during summer because you were outside. Now you get to like go in and do your art and do your journaling or do your you know, play your guitar or whatever the thing is. Go in.
Speaker 1:Very introspective time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, all right. So we enter Scorpio season the 22nd and then the 26th. What's going on 26, 24, 24? There we go. Mars is in cancer, having a real quick little sex style conversation with uranus and taurus. So this could be something where mars is action. Uranus is sudden change, so this could be something where a sudden breakthrough happens, or suddenly you take action on a project you've been thinking about for a while or there's some type of movement happening. On the 24th with.
Speaker 2:Mars and Uranus talking to each other in a real nice conversation. Sex styles are like super easy. You just call up a friend real quick and be like hey, it's me, what are you doing?
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:There's no like chit chat or small talk, it's just really like let's just get into it. So that's a great energy. And then we're almost at the end of the month. What are we wrapping up the month with?
Speaker 1:There's lots of transits still to go. It's like six, seven more transits and only a few days left. I know how is this going to work out. So on October 28, we have two transits happening. We have Mars in Cancer trying to Neptune in Pisces and at the same day we have Venus in Sag square to Saturn in Pisces. So this is an interesting mix. We've been seeing a lot of Mars in October, october. So far, a lot of mars, yep, and this trying to neptune and pisces, like finally a trine and well that he had another time before as well, but all right, a nice trying to pisces. That's amazing to neptune and pisces, because mars and neptune are super different energies.
Speaker 2:Mars is is like a drive going forward Really different.
Speaker 1:And Neptune isn't going. Neptune isn't anything. Neptune is just like. It cannot take a shape or form. It's just like mist.
Speaker 2:Yeah, mist, fog, clouds, dreams when you wake up in the morning and you remember your dream and you try to grab it. You try to grab it and you're like, oh, and it's just gone. And then you go to tell someone. You're like I had a dream last night and I was, um, hang on, I think I was at a bookstore. I don't um like it, just it just evaporates. It's so frustrating.
Speaker 2:So this could be an interesting day where, like we know we want to take action, but Neptune might cause us confusion on what it is we're taking action on. I'm not sure I love the suggestion on the page that we use. It says book that psychic reading today. Yeah, book that astrology reading today. I was going to say I have to tell my clients it's time to book that astrology reading for sure. Yeah, october 28th. And then so that's happening, but then with Venus and Sagittarius square to Saturn and Pisces, this can be Venus and Saturn. This could equal like a loneliness or the removal of a loved one. Maybe someone's going on a vacation or going away for a while or on a trip. I just saw like a military member being shipped away. That's what, like the visual that came up in my head where, like Saturn, is duty Right and so like maybe somebody is getting shipped out to go for their, for their duty, for their job. And then Venus would be like loved ones having to stay home, and like this energy of not connecting.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, there is that square intention between and also, like our values, venus and Saturn. What we need to do? Yeah, that jump, that needs to get done. So this uncomfortableness in that at the same time, we have marth and cancer trying neptune and pisces. So I would say, yeah, it would be a little bit uncomfortable, and just tap in to um, to your inner knowing, and really go for an exploration inside and just explore. Whatever is this? This? This feels like it could be a very karmic day. There could be a lot of karmic things coming to the surface with this square situation. And then you have such a heightened what's it called A heightened sensitivity to the other worlds, to your inner world. Absolutely, yeah, this could be to the other worlds, to your inner world.
Speaker 2:Absolutely yeah, this is not a day for like romance or lovey-dovey Like this is where there's going to be like some ice dropped on the relationship. It's just not a good, deep, intimate connection day by any means. The Mondays I have noticed Mondays in October seem to be really quite interesting.
Speaker 2:Like there's other things happening, but yeah, that's happening on a Monday too. So the, the 14th, the 21st, 28th the Mondays seem to be really, really active this month. So just for all the moms out there, dads out there, just kind of take note that Mondays might be a little challenging this month. Yeah, and then how do we wrap up the month, helena?
Speaker 1:so first, october 30th, mercury and scorpio. Opposite to uranus and taurus. Mercury makes very moves very quickly through the zodiac, so this will be a short transit, but, um, yeah, this will be a day when, when information will be like all over the place. It will be a very confusing day, for sure. I will just leave it at that. And then we finish up the month on the 31st with mercury in scorpio now making a try into neptune in Pisces. So first, being a little like confused, uranus can also bring really cool and like fast lightning bolts of ideas. Yeah, it's just, you know, uranus brings that, that flavor that is like you have never tried before and that can cause confusion or it can cause like genius, you know. Yes, and then the day after, mercury has a trident neptune, which is also like opening more up to to the, to the unseen worlds. Yes, I think great that's halloween.
Speaker 2:Yes, that is halloween. Yes, I think it's great for opening to the unseen worlds. It's phenomenal for day of the dead and people who celebrate that. It's like the, the energies of souls transferring over like hello. Yes For that. And the 30th with Mercury opposite Uranus this today, there, this day to me looks like it could really. Oh, I just keep feeling like mental health struggles. Mental health struggles, the 30th really feel like they're popping up to the surface with anytime you have your mind opposite, your nervous system there's I don't care what signs they're in, right, but when the mind and the nervous system are opposite each other, it can really lead to some mental health challenges, because your mind is telling you one thing, your nervous system is telling you another and typically in our society we honor our thoughts more than our body. That seems to be what we do.
Speaker 2:And we don't always listen to our nervous system. But if anybody knows out there what an adrenal failure or adrenal fatigue feels like, you learn to listen to your nervous system real well. After you crash, right After a nervous system breakdown, you don't screw around with that anymore and you're like, oh, we listened to that thing first. So this is October 30th is a great day to really really be aware of the teeter-totter between your mental health and your body's needs and your mental health and your body's needs. Like this is really just pay attention. Pay attention to this, especially if you have teenagers that are struggling mentally. If you've got anybody experiencing their Saturn return and Pisces like these transits can be the transits that maybe push people over the edge and we have a major suicide issue in our world this you know where we're at at this point in time and I look for these specific transits.
Speaker 2:I've done a lot of suicide prevention classes. I'm very open about talking about that, reaching out for help. We now have a new suicide hotline in America. It's 988. So if you guys don't know that, that's a big thing, uh. So it's like 911 for emergency. We now have 988 for uh, mental health emergencies, which I think is awesome, but I don't think many people know that. So, yeah, this is a transit where I just like want to point that out. If you know of someone who's struggling mentally, or if your child is, be hyper vigilant on these types of days and just extra connecting, extra, you know, let them know as well. Be like, hey, the energy today is really weird and or up in a couple of days is really weird. If you're not feeling well, like talk to me or let's go get some ice cream or whatever, but this is a day to listen to your nervous system.
Speaker 2:Usually, over your mind, your mind will be like oh, it's okay, keep going. Or, you know, do what we have to do to cause the boss said so, or whatever, but your nervous system has to be listened to it's really important.
Speaker 2:And then the next day, with Mercury trying to Neptune. It can be really lovely with connecting with the other side, but it also can pull people to the other side too. So, while I don't want to predict anything like, oh, this is a great suicide time, these energies could lead to that. Should you be in the right state of mind for that, should you have all of the things set up ahead of time where you're not doing well and you're not reaching out and you're not aware, right, all of the things these energies can look like that. So, like, I just feel like it's important to be aware that energies change and they shift.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yep, yep. So if you know anyone who's struggling, I know there's a mom in a mom group I'm with that. She's got a 15 year old daughter who's struggling and my first advice to her was to get her hormones checked, because hormones play a huge role and we are in Scorpio season and Scorpio rules the sacral region, our hormone region. So if you're struggling with your mental health, by all means go get your hormones tested. Please, for the love of God, go get your hormones checked. Reach out for help, call people whoever you need, whatever the situation, because sometimes the energies can just be that lined up that they pull us to make that that decision you know, and I would just I don't.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I've committed suicide in another life, but in this lifetime I feel really, really strong about prevention and helping people with it and helping people in that realm. So I'm not sure what it is with me. I haven't been affected by it personally, thank goodness, but I know so many people who have so many people who have. So I do want to just point that out. When I see these transits and I feel that energy and my spirit homies are like say something okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:So just because I can also um, when you're not feeling great, when you're feeling, um, when you're having, you know, mental uh days, when you, when you just not having a great mental health day, you can feel very isolated as well, and I feel like that's a huge part of of mental unwellness, uh, the feeling of isolation and um and this is an isolation time of energy, scorpio is super isolating, it isolates itself and just knowing that, yes, this is not just you going through these energies, it is actually the whole world right now. You're not alone in this Like we can all be isolated, let's all be a little Scorpio together, but you know it's not just you who's mistreated by the world, you know.
Speaker 2:Exactly exactly. Yeah, yeah, so not bad energy to end on. Just like take note right, with Mercury trying to Neptune, our mind can be a little dreamy, but also our mind can be disillusioned by maybe checking out of life right, maybe we think it's going to be better if we just leave, right, so the energies can play out, how the energies play out. But I just want people to know that that's one of the ways it might show up. So just a warning, just a little like put that in your head not to not to end on a debbie downer note right, or anything like that.
Speaker 1:But I just want to make sure people are aware yeah, exactly, you drew the scorpio card before this, before we dove into this.
Speaker 2:I did, and I feel like we had to add on that, like that note of just like put this in your mind.
Speaker 2:So, because I do know, I do know how profound a suicide affects those that are left behind, right, it is really, really, really difficult on all of those that remain and while I do feel bad for the person who did choose to take their life, while I do feel bad for the person who did choose to take their life, I really, really feel bad for the people left and trying to cope with it and pick up the pieces. So there's just a recent suicide in Green Bay at one of the schools for a teenager. So this is kind of fresh in my mind.
Speaker 1:That's horrible.
Speaker 2:I know, I know, I hear that and I just like and, and and. I was reading some statistics after that, after the article I was reading and suicide is the number one cause of death in kids age nine to 21. Number one, above car accidents, above anything. And like I'm just like, that makes my throat just just catch it, just my heart is in my throat when I think about that and how many mamas and papas are losing their babies out there. And you know, we, we, we've got to do something, we got to talk about it, we got to explain these energies. We have to make them aware of what's going on. So I know that's part of the reason why I do astrology is to help people step into their energy and recognize that energies change.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they shift and you won't feel this way forever, I promise. So October's definitely got some ups and downs, but overall I think we'll. We'll get through it and we will embrace the scorpionic transformation and use the penetrating mind that we are, the penetrating energy, to connect with the collective source right, the collective energy. And what did my card say? Transformation, scorpio loans you the strength and curiosity to plumb the depths and face your monsters and then soar to new heights and transform your situation.
Speaker 1:monsters and then soar to new heights and transform your situation. I feel that. Yes, I feel like it's coming.
Speaker 2:Yeah Well, thanks for tuning in everybody. I hope this was helpful for you and, yeah, we can't wait to check in again with you next time. Yes, thanks so much, take care Bye. Yes, thanks so much, take care bye.
