Weekly Horoscope
Communication, Learning & Release
This week, Virgo, the cosmic spotlight turns toward your third house of communication, learning, and siblings. Venus retrograde squares Pluto on 20 October, intensifying themes of jealousy, manipulation, and power struggles within your mental sphere . Old situations from September may resurface, demanding a more honest response. This is not a time for reactive confrontation — it is a time for honest observation. Where are you holding on to a mental pattern because it is familiar, and where are you holding on because you are afraid of what happens when you let go?
The Sun enters Scorpio on 23 October, illuminating your third house for the next month . Mercury, your ruling planet, turns retrograde in the same sign on 24 October, initiating a three-week review period around your communication, contracts, and learning . Expect delays or the need to revisit a conversation or an agreement you thought was settled. Double-check communications, avoid signing major contracts, and prepare for a period of review rather than initiation.
Mars in Leo continues to bring energy and drive to your twelfth house of retreat, healing, and hidden work. Your need for solitude and reflection is strong. The Sun in Libra has just left your second house of money and self-worth — the financial clarity you gained last week is still integrating. On 25 October, Venus retrograde returns to Libra, shifting the focus toward balance, harmony, and self-worth rather than power struggles . Your victory lies in embracing mental honesty without losing your peace.
