VIRGO HOROSCOPE for OCTOBER 2024

VIRGO/VIRGO ASCENDANT

So the New Moon of Oct 3rd is a nice way to begin the month, focused on your famous Virgo manifesting magic:

This Moon is in your 2nd house of personal values & prosperity, where you come to terms with your own sense of autonomous security, such as you understand it right now. And being a Solar Eclipse-your instincts about this are totally on point. Especially conjunct your ruler Mercury, and Bitch Lilith.

Clarity about your own intentions, to do with hustling material prosperity & emotional self sufficiency, with the elegant way you quietly take personal responsibility for your own wellbeing. The unwavering self-assurance that comes from this, is not something you charge around making a big deal about, more the lowkey satisfaction of knowing you are being true to yourself. You love this!

And this Eclipse opposite Destiny Point & healer Chiron, in your 8th house of personal entanglements, emotional vulnerability & sexy passion. Especially with Saturn retro sorting out the quality of commitment, or not, in your love/partner sector.

So as much as you set elegant boundaries, with certain people in order to sort your own priorities out? Yes, fair enough.

But also it matters, to connect with the loved ones you do care about, with elegant authenticity. The more you turn up with emotional integrity, more likely to enjoy reciprocal honesty with certain, special people! A bit of devotion, even when feeling vulnerable outside your normal, teensy bit control freaky comfort zone-could go a long way here. Maybe a lovely moment to cultivate healthy, long term relational dynamics, if lucky enough to have someone special on the scene?

Then the manifesting magic of this Eclipse plays out, with Pluto direct from Oct 12th, in your wonderfully creative 5th house:

I mean after Pluto in your 5th for the last 15 years, you’ve totally come to terms with your powerful, innate talent. As much as you’ve had to dig deep, to figure out what you’re genuinely good at -permission to reveal, and creatively manifest your brilliance in the world. So Pluto direct this month is so good, to finesse your gorgeous confidence about this until late Nov.

Meanwhile Jupiter in your 10th/brilliant career sector for the last several months has been helpful, to believe in your most positive professional dreams-where you get to show off the awesome talent that Pluto has been revealing. So ok, Jupiter retro from Oct 9th, just as Pluto turning direct could be frustrating, in terms of temporarily slowing down your career momentum?

Actually this could be perfect, with Jupiter retro exactly trine your ruler Mercury, in your 2nd house of personal prosperity. I mean it’s all very well, entertaining wild & wonderful vocational growth. But you are the sign who most enjoys the control freaky thrills, of drilling down on every single detail about it. So taking time out from forced progress, in order to finesse & effectively monetise whatever you are on about, could be quite satisfying! Preparing to cruise forward, with crystal clear career direction, when Jupiter turns direct from February.

Meanwhile we need to talk about Mars firing up your 11th/social sector, for an extended stay until April. If you feel like you are most energised by connecting with your wider tribe, you are totally onto it.

Yes your social butterfly charisma is on point, as you swan around being super confident on the scene. Maybe networking your ass off, as you hustle professional opportunities? Maybe the buzz of having a good time with your crew/attending all the right parties? Even better feeling connected to your community, finding your niche in terms of contributing to the rapid collective evolution, going on right now. And sharing quality time with dear friends, as you remember how much you support & appreciate one another.

And speaking of close relationships. The Full Moon of Oct 17th is in your 8th house, of vulnerable emotional intimacy, sexy passion, family & biz entanglements. Conjunct healer Chiron and the Destiny Point. All of your key relational dynamics are revealed here, as everyone gets real honest, about how they feel. Your discerning intelligence, about the subtle cues you are giving one another is on point. The better to figure out the special people, you want to move forward with.
