October 2017 monthly horoscope for all zodiac signs

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 20)
The planets provide all Rams with outer directed energy this October. The secret to your success lies in stern old Saturn which seems to diminish your self confidence but in fact, provides you with incredible strength and fortitude. As they say in Noo Yawk, “Don’t take nuttin frum nobody”; show the world what pioneering Aries are all about.

TAURUS (APRIL 21 - MAY 21)
There is a tiger in your tank this October when both aggressive Mars and volcanic Pluto stoke the flames of passion in your chart. Some Bulls may charge through china shops in their lusty quest for adoration and the need to make up for lost time. Good thing too; sometimes you have to break a few plates to get yourself served.

GEMINI (MAY 22 - JUNE 21)
Geminis yearn for connection and are one of the most sociable signs of the zodiac. Now in October, Twins seek soulmates with a vengeance and strive for transforming connections. Venus provides the extra spark after the 20th if you’ve found the right match. Platonic relationships go only so far; Saturn demands more than a warm handshake.

CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 23)
October allows a breath of fresh air to waft through your relationship with your family and it’s about time! Use this planetary transit to your greatest advantage friend; say what needs to be said and do what needs to be done. Retro Saturn causes a few contretemps between friends but it’s just the way the planets remind you that even your pals need attention now and then.

LEO (JULY 24 - AUGUST 23)
Happy surprises are in store for all Lions who recognize the value of a strong and committed partnership. That means, of course, that you cannot always have your way or be the center of attention all the time, try though you will. Career plans do not go as smooth as expected as retro Saturn provides a little lesson in every professional misstep. Retro Jupiter promises a doozy!

VIRGO (AUGUST 24 - SEPTEMBER 23)
Any restrictions placed on your ability to create the perfect home environment for yourself are released this month. Both Pluto and Mars demand an upheaval in no uncertain terms. Good; I hate oppressive living arrangements. Virgos often try to please everyone else and in the process, compromise themselves. Turn over a new leaf friend; there’s a gem underneath.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 24 - OCTOBER 23)
Retro Saturn and Jupiter provide a few lessons in the importance of careful planning and, when that fails, maintaining a great sense of humor. Make a fairly compelling case for whatever you want this month when Mars and Pluto crown you the great orator and seer. Hey, why not on a pressing political cause? Take it to the streets and storm the barricades. Watch that first step! Oops!

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 22)
Scorps will be tickled pink this October. Not only do retro Jupiter and Uranus turn up the volume on any jolly time, but a cluster of planets happily shine on any fiscal endeavor. Use your scorpion ingenuity to plot and plan your financial success. Spice it all up with enjoyable and relaxing pastimes. Fun and money too?? Sometimes life just ain’t fair!

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 23 - DECEMBER 22)
While it’s hard to drum up any enthusiasm for an old favorite sideline, Archers can implement new plans and dreams this October. Maybe you’re too fixated on what’s old and stale. Maybe it’s time to break out and try something new. Use that big mouth of yours to talk to all and sundry and gather fresh ideas. Speaking of fresh, change your socks.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 23 - JANUARY 20)
Goats get back to the basics this October when the major planets demand that you give back to the community in both time and energy. Karma is calling! One good turn deserves another; retrograde Neptune and Uranus go direct mid-month, delivering a financial benefactor to your doorstep. Be sure to keep your eye on the bottom line as you grab for assets.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 21 - FEBRUARY 19)
You may not mean what you say, but you’re charming as heck anyway. Aquarians must capitalize on their personality this October when chance meetings with strangers provide happy, expansive and surprising results. And don’t forget your pals; Pluto and Mars transform platonic social outlets and bring them to new levels. Everyone into the maddening swirl!

PISCES (FEBRUARY 20 - MARCH 20)
While you have not been known to be an empire builder, the planets give you a chance to become Donald Trump for the month. Saturn gives you a worn but wise attitude about money and Pluto tears down and then rebuilds long term goals and outer success. Remember to institute a three day work week after you throw the sharks out.
