But don't drop your guard, because Mars in Scorpio is lurking, waiting to reveal secrets and aggressive energies.

Ever wondered how celestial phenomena like solar and lunar eclipses impact our lives? We're about to unlock those mysteries! Learn how solar eclipses can wipe our slates clean, reveal secrets, and pave the way for new opportunities. On the other hand, the full moon lunar eclipse on October 28th, bouncing between Scorpio and Taurus, urges us to amp up certain areas of our lives. And of course, we'll round off with a Sun Sign forecast for October 2023, highlighting the freedom and opportunities of Libra season along with the financial stability and relationship prospects that the Taurus full moon brings. So, buckle up, sit back, and let's take a cosmic journey together.

The key is to stay in balance as Mercury moves through the ups and downs of the Libra scales.  Keep things light and positive, because Mercury transits into serpentine Scorpio on October 22, and things might get intense. Mercury morphs into the psychopomp opening the portals to Scorpionic seductive, spookish scenarios.

Pluto has 4 months to make haste, in wrapping up the past 14 years of Karma while it transited through Capricorn.  Be prepared for some big news or announcements in the media from October 10-15 that will concern the collective.  Mars moves into Scorpio provoking aggressive energies to come out of the shadows.  Just in time for the New Moon Eclipse on October 14.

Stay tuned till the end of the episode when I give my Sun Sign forecast for each sign.

Speaker 1:

I will share the key dates and astrological activities during the month of October and then go back and give more details. We've had a nice run since Mercury went direct back on September 15th, right after the new moon in Virgo, getting us back to business. It's smooth sailing until Eclipse storms stir up the wavelengths leading up to the Libra new moon solar eclipse on October 14th. Mercury lunges into Libra on October 4th and Pluto plunges direct on October 10th. Mars links into Scorpio on October 12th, stirring up spooky scenarios. This eclipse season, which kicks off at the October 14 solar eclipse, through the October 28 lunar eclipse, the Libra pendulum swings erratically back and forth, seeking peace at the eclipse, with Mercury, sun, moon and South Node negotiating outcomes at the solar eclipse. The Witch is Brew is us stewing. Early October is chill, while the second half of the month is chilling. Here are the key dates in October 2023. Mercury transits Libra from October 4th through the 22nd. Venus transits Virgo from October 8th through November 8th. Pluto goes direct on 10-10, october 10th. Mars transits into Scorpio on October 12th. The Libra new moon solar eclipse occurs on October 14th. Mercury transits Scorpio from October 22nd through November 10th 2023. The Sun enters Scorpio on October 23rd and the full moon lunar eclipse occurs on October 28th, with the full moon in Taurus and the Sun in Scorpio.

Speaker 1:

October opens with bewitching and beguiling Libra energies, kicking off the eclipse season. Pluto goes direct on October 10th, followed by Mars merging into spooky Scorpio on October 12th, just in time for the Libra new moon's spicy solar eclipse on October 14th. Full of speed ahead in early October. Until Libra solar eclipse stops us in our tracks. Until then, enjoy the Libra love lights bringing in new relationship opportunities, while Libra South node closes the doors on those connections that are too draining or unfulfilling.

Speaker 1:

Mercury transits into Libra on October 4th, enhancing socialization, love connections and getting a fresh start. Get out in that early autumn sun and have some fun. Mercury wants to be the peacekeeper, keeping conversations cordial and restraining from erratic actions. Sun and Mercury, now transiting direct through Libra, are playing the diplomats, trying to keep tensions down. Meanwhile, the pending eclipses are lurking. As the eclipse fuse gets lit on October 14th through the end of the month, the key is to stay in balance as Mercury moves through the ups and downs of the Libra scales. Keep things light and positive, because Mercury transits into serpentine Scorpio on October 22nd and things might get intense. Mercury morphs into the Psycho-Pomp, opening the portals to scorpionic, seductive, spookish scenarios.

Speaker 1:

Virtuous Venus vibes into Virgo on October 8th, taking up her maid's outfit or nun's habit or vestial virgin countenance, which also make great Halloween costumes, by the way. Venus enjoyed an extended stay for almost four months in Leo's lair. She needs to balance all that summer fun in the sun with focusing on all the tasks at hand that were neglected. Venus and Virgo now wants us to focus, get back to work and clean house. She's got a month, from October 8th through November 8th, to make things happen and get it done, because On November 8th it's party time again, as Venus leaps into Libra, home court and enjoys a social season during November, venus and Virgo during October, however, is enterprising and very busy, and she needs to clear the decks to be the social butterfly next month. Pluto pulses direct in Capricorn on October 10th, giving us the green light to move forward with career business plans and pursuing our Dharma, a Sanskrit word for life purpose. Pluto has four months to make haste in wrapping up the past 14 years of karma it accrued or cleared while it transited through the sign Capricorn. Be prepared for some big news or announcements in the media from October 10th through the 15th that will concern the collective. We are all preparing for the big Aquarian upliftment in our society and personal lives that arrives in late January 2024.

Speaker 1:

Mars moves into Scorpio on October 12th, provoking aggressive energies to come out of the shadows Just in time for the new moon solar eclipse on October 14th. Mars is the ruler of the transiting Aries north node, so there may be hostile situations percolating around the world. Luckily, libra keeps things light and airy. Mars in Scorpio amps up the intensity. We can feel it in the air. Mars can dive deep in Scorpio into all things hidden, subconscious and surreal. Life may get weird. New stories will be bizarre, big secrets and scandals that were hidden in our collective reality, as well as in people's personal lives, will be exposed. Get ready for seductive, sleazy and sinister revelings.

Speaker 1:

New moon solar eclipse occurs in Libra on October 14th, amplifying this theme of revelations. Relatives will be unraveling and secrets are exposed. We must maintain our balance at this time, despite the precariousness of situations. Libra rules all things related to love, relationships, balance, harmony, justice, air communication and connection. There could be some dicey stuff with air travel during this eclipse. Later, decisions will be made that the rule of justice sets down. Watch your communications and messaging during this eclipse at others may be more sensitive and misinterpret your meaning.

Speaker 1:

I've done many podcasts over the past years on the eclipses, but want to remind listeners about the power of a solar eclipse. In Western astrology, solar eclipses aren't considered as malefic as lunar eclipses. Solar eclipses usher in new beginnings. The electromagnetic radiations will be felt worldwide at the upcoming solar eclipse on October 14th. Sometimes around these eclipses, especially solar eclipses, we have a preponderance of solar flares or there are sunspots on the actual sun in our galaxy that is affecting us here on Earth. People may be in funky moods. What solar eclipses do for us as people on the planet is that they shine light on what has been hidden from individuals or in collective society.

Speaker 1:

The astrological phenomena that brings solar eclipses, or the astronomy of a solar eclipse, is when the moon lines up directly between the Earth and the Sun. They always happen at new moons. Astrologically, when the Sun and Moon are in the same sign, at a new moon, the Sun and Moon are conjunct, so you're going to see an activation of the house in your natal chart where Libra resides. So that could be in any of the 12 houses of astrology the house of self, the house of money, the house of communication, the house of home, the house of children, creativity, romance, the house of health and service, the house of relationships, the house of the subconscious or shared resources, the house of higher wisdom, higher knowledge, travel, education, the house of career, the house of gain in the future and your house of karma. So check with your astrologer, jill Jardine. Book a session at JillJardineAstrologycom to find out how this Libra new moon eclipse will affect you and the full moon Lunar eclipse activating the axis of Scorpio and Taurus in your chart.

Speaker 1:

The moon can block out the Sun's light at a solar eclipse, distorting our sense of reality. Therefore, do not make any big decisions at a solar or lunar eclipse, as your clarity can be obscured, just like the Sun or Moon being obscured, and there can also be confusion. Eclipses can clean the slate, whether the slate is your mind, your experiences, your relationships and other aspects of your life. So we can use the solar eclipse, new moon energy, of a new beginning coming with a solar eclipse, but maybe wait a few days or even weeks before we embark on the new path. That is a good way to use the energy. Sometimes the solar eclipse opens up opportunities that put us in a new direction On a collective level. Solar eclipses are a very interesting time to see what shows up in the media. Lots of secrets are revealed and people will be exposed. Solar eclipses' fourth growth and, as I said earlier, they tend to activate one sign of the zodiac because the Sun and Moon are together, they're directly. The Sabian symbol for the degree of this solar eclipse on October 14th is 21 degrees Libra.

Speaker 1:

A Sunday crowd enjoying the beach. The keynote is a revivifying contact with the mother force of nature and of social togetherness. We may speak here of oceanic feeling born of attunement to the most basic rhythms of existence or whatever level it might be. So we will see how we are all interconnected and indeed not separate from each other. We are all connected in the invisible web of existence. Because of that we must remember to attune to those higher frequencies of liquid light, and those higher vibes will lift up our consciousness and the lower consciousness of the planetary. As planetary healers we must keep our energies up and help to bring others up. We also see that it is easy to fall to the lowest common denominator, especially in society or in crowd situations. We must raise our frequencies to those higher emotional set points of love, peace and bliss which are keynotes of Libra.

Speaker 1:

Mercury moves into Scorpio on October 22, morphing into the Psycho-Pomp, opening the portals to Scorpionic's inductive, spookish scenarios. Scorpio season slides in on October 23 when the sun transits into the serpent's lair, lighting the ecliptic energies. Money and sex are on everyone's minds. With the Scorpionic influence of planets, scandals seep out into public awareness. The ecliptic window is wide open and the witch's cauldron is brewing and stewing at the full moon.

Speaker 1:

Lunar eclipse on October 28. Some dark Finland is about to go down. As we get closer to the lunar eclipse of October 28, our skin may crawl as sneaky, suspicious and sleazy Scorpionic situations silently stew in the shadows, ready to surface. What will be revealed? This phase of the moon occurs at five degrees Taurus, opposite the sun at five degrees Scorpio. It's a busy eclipse, with Mercury in Scorpio and opposing Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus. There can be inflated feelings and we can wrestle with strong urges, so it's wise to sit with our revelations for a bit before taking action. This eclipse serves as a final prompt, nudge or push to make improvements in the Taurus and Scorpio ruled areas of our life, in our natal charts, and feelings of discontent can magnify. It's a time to resolve matters, strike a balance, take the lessons and move on. This is a partial lunar eclipse, which occurs on October 28, 2023 at 4.24 pm Eastern time. The degree is five degrees Taurus moon with the sun at five degrees Scorpio.

Speaker 1:

Taurus, five's Sabian symbol, is a widow at an open grave, very Scorpionic. The keynote is the impermanence of all material and social bonds. All natural compounds decay, said the Buddha. The most beautiful and most enjoyed substance loses its potential energy through continuous actualization and the principle of integration and form is withdrawn, leaving the void, the open grave that ends all attachments. The void is the great challenge. What next? One must begin anew and, if possible, at a higher ie, more inclusive and universal, less egoic. Central level In astrology, scorpio and Taurus are money signs.

Speaker 1:

Taurus, in our chart, indicates our value system and resources, which includes the money we make, what we like to spend our money on and how we cultivate resources and what we value. Scorpio in astrology relates to shared resources, money we receive from others, partners, money, death, transformation and rebirth. So, with this lunar eclipse activating the Taurus Scorpio axis, there will be many issues regarding money or lack of money, resources, the economy, shared resources, what to do with our money, who's spending our money, and so on. So get ready for this final eclipse in the signs Taurus and Scorpio. After experiencing them since 2021, we're going to all sigh a big sigh of release and say bye-bye.

Speaker 1:
