Astrological Forecast October 19 – 25, 2020
The Sun will move into Scorpio on Thursday, joining with Mercury retrograde to call on us to review, revise and go deep within, to see where clearing or change is needed. Scorpio will add intensity to our spiritual movements over the next four weeks, reminding us to honor the intuitive and soulful messages that arise during this cycle.
A light-hearted and productive week arises as the Moon travels through Sagittarius on Monday and Tuesday, followed by an industrious Capricorn Moon through Thursday. The weekend unfolds under an Aquarius Moon, encouraging us to think outside the box,. Expect the unexpected and embrace the joyful unity you feel with all those around you. Friendship is the theme, so reach out to those important people who sustain your life and support your every effort.
Astrological Forecast October 12 – 18, 2020
Mercury goes retrograde in Scorpio on Tuesday, so we need to be alert and stay on our toes, especially in aspects of communication, technology, legal agreements and travel. And because Scorpio is a water sign, this will also be a time of intense emotional introspection and clarity.
Interestingly, Mercury will resume its normal forward motion again on election day in the United States, on November 3, 2020. This may affect voter turnout, the functioning of voting equipment, early ballots being lost, and delays in the final results. Not the best timing, Mercury! Even without the retrograde preceding the election by three weeks, it is sure to be an interesting time, full of twists and turns!
The Libra New Moon on Friday will set the stage for two weeks of new beginnings, and potentially redirect us if we’ve lost sight of our current goals. This is also a strong lunation for relationships and the possibility to create new ones, or re-balance current ones, and embrace new potentials.
Practice extra caution over the weekend, as the Moon travels through Scorpio. It has a tendency to create an illusion, or throw us off balance, so be as mindful as possible at the end of this somewhat restless, scattered week.
Astrological Forecast October 5 – 11, 2020
An easy-going week awaits us, with no major astrological shifts or surprises, but do keep in mind that Mercury will be going retrograde next week, and could create a few electronic and technical glitches, as it slows down. This is a great week to back up your computer, iPhone and any device that stores lots of your personal information.
Monday will turn out to be our most productive day of the week as the Moon travels through Taurus, so get important work out of the way as best you can. Tuesday and Wednesday are ideal for socializing, information gathering and learning new things, as the Moon dances through curious Gemini. The Moon will enter Cancer on Thursday and have us turning inward through Saturday, attending our emotional, home and personal needs. A bit of over-sensitivity could loom on Friday, so be careful not to take things too personally, or fall under an illusion. The Leo Moon will brighten our Sunday as it encourages self-care and generosity with others.
September 2020 Weekly Astrology Forecasts
September 7 – 13
We may not get much done on Monday, but if there is anything that just has to be completed, be sure to get to it on Tuesday, as the rest of the week will be a free-for-all!
Mars will go retrograde on Wednesday – a cycle that typically only happens once every two years. For the next two months it will be traveling backward, and being the planet of movement and action, we may all feel like we’re traveling in circles and unable to get any traction or make any headway.
Mars will be retracing its steps in Aries, the sign it rules, making it especially challenging for Aries and fire signs Leo and Sagittarius. It’s higher purpose is to give us the chance to go back and do things differently – quite appropriate, since it will be retrograde during the 2020 US Presidential Election, and won’t resume forward motion until November 13th.
Jupiter will turn direct on Saturday, ending its four-month retrograde cycle and bringing things back into balance on a personal level. It may take a few weeks for it to get ‘back on track,’ but once it does, we’ll find it easier to see the gifts in any blockages or delays Mars creates, as it begins its bi-annual retrograde cycle.
September 14 – 20
Except for Thursday’s new Moon in Virgo, things are pretty quiet on the astrological front this week, and should flow along pretty smoothly.
Monday’s Leo Moon will bring out our generous and gregarious sides, making for joyful interactions and heartfelt exchanges.
Tuesday and Wednesday the Moon travels through Virgo, making this the perfect time to attend detailed work, create a new budget, or make plans for a special upcoming event.
If you’ve been neglecting yourself physically or financially, the New Moon in Virgo will spur you into action to get things back on track, so starting a new class, exercise routine or scheduling a minor procedure will be easy under this influence.
The Moon dances through Libra on Friday and Saturday, casting a lovely and balanced tone to our movements. Romance will be in the air, and partnerships and friendships of all kinds will flourish.
Sunday’s Scorpio Moon will call us to go inward and relax to restore our energy and enjoy the wave of soulful and spiritual peace in the heavens.
September 21 – 27
The Sun will move into Libra on Tuesday, setting the stage for a month of loving, balanced and nurturing energy. Partnerships may grow stronger and those still looking for true love will have an open window from the Universe to meet their soulmates.
In fact, Monday’s Scorpio Moon is the perfect time to set your intentions for the month ahead, as its karmic nature can open doors that have been closed to you for years, so on the eve of the Sun’s move into Libra, take some time to meditate, write down your wishes or dreams. and then turn them over to the Universe for manifestation!
Thursday and Friday will be our most productive days of the week, so don’t worry if you can’t seem to get anything done until then, as you’ll make up for lost time in an instant.
The Moon will inspire us as it travels through Aquarius on Saturday and Sunday, spurring us to investigate new places, people, activities and creative ideas. Take advantage of this innovative cycle, as once Mercury moves into Scorpio on Sunday, our thoughts will turn inward to focus on more spiritual matters for the next few weeks.
September 28 – October 4
There are all kinds of activity happening in the heavens this week, with two planets going direct, one changing signs and a full Moon as the cherry on top! Saturn comes up first, as it turns direct on Monday after almost five months of retrograde motion. Once it gets some traction in a few weeks, earth signs (Capricorn, Virgo, Taurus) will finally experience some major breakthroughs, while the other signs of the zodiac will appreciate a return to discipline and balance that it brings. The Aries full Moon occurs on Thursday, and because it is also known as the Hunter Moon, it can often create the catalyst for new beginnings, provided we are finally ready to release the past and let go of things that are holding us back. This Full Moon calls for us to look into our hearts and minds and see what needs to be cleared out so that new opportunities can appear.
Venus moves into Virgo on Friday, and this can make the planet of love a little fussy! Try to keep an open mind and don’t dismiss anything because you don’t think you’ll like it. On an up note, Venus in Virgo can also bring out the humanitarian side of our natures, as well as an eye for detail, redecorating ideas and organizational projects.
The week will end with Pluto going direct, which will set the tone for social change and heightened awareness of the world around us over the next eight months.
August 2020 Weekly Astrology Forecasts
August 3 – 9
The week opens with an Aquarius Full Moon (also known as a Sturgeon Moon), which could make for a tricky Monday! We’ll need to practice flexibility and patience, as this Full Moon could change our direction at a moment’s notice.
The following day, Mercury will enter dramatic Leo, which could fill our heads with grandiose ideas. Entertain them, but get more information before you act! A Pisces Moon rules the heavens on Wednesday and Thursday, providing a more spiritually based and quiet few days.
Venus will move into Cancer on Friday, where it will ride the soothing and intuitive wave of this sign for the next month. Love of home, family, and self will take precedence during this cycle. The weekend unfolds under an Aries Moon, filling us with energetic and creative energies. So, let’s get out there and have some fun!
August 10 – 16
Except for Uranus going retrograde on Saturday, this should be a quiet and productive week. Uranus will travel backward until January of 2021, with subtle shifts and changes that probably won’t be obvious until the beginning of next year. People born under the sign of Aquarius (which Uranus rules) may notice it more, as they’re asked to go back and review changes they’ve made this year, and whether those alterations are working for them.
July 2020 Weekly Astro Forecasts
July 6 – 12
Mercury will go direct this Sunday, after three weeks of shifting our perceptions and interfering with our movement. However, bear in mind it typically takes a week to straighten out completely, after it turns around, so we’re not out of the woods yet!
Misplaced cards or documents, electronic glitches, and emails and texts that aren’t sent or received may still happen. Continue to practice patience to see what the messages are behind Mercury’s shenanigans!
The Aquarius Moon could shift our movements on an hourly basis on Monday or Tuesday, so don’t hang on to your plans when they go astray! The Pisces Moon will take center stage on Wednesday, moving us through the rest of the workweek in flowing and easy-going ways.
Action is the theme over the weekend, as the Moon charges through Aries and energizes all our movements. There won’t be much trouble on Sunday, as the day Mercury turns around and changes direction is usually fairly benign.
June 2020 Weekly Astro Forecasts
June 1 – 7
The exciting news this week is Friday’s Sagittarius Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse! Lunar and solar eclipses always come in pairs, with one following the other in a period of two weeks. So, this week’s Lunar Eclipse will be followed by a Solar Eclipse in Cancer on June 21st.
Eclipses set the tone for the next six months, so these lunations will usher in a time of focusing on our perceptions of home, family, security and emotional issues. Over the next two weeks, watch for new insights and clarity that emerge from honoring our emotions and tending to our hearts.
Monday’s Libra Moon will cast a centering energy over us all. The Moon will travel through Scorpio on Tuesday and Wednesday, evoking our spiritual and intuitive sides to the surface. The lunar eclipse occurs under a Sagittarius Full Moon (also known as a Strawberry Moon) and asks us to release inhibitions and restrictions that are holding us back.
If we’ve got anything important to accomplish on the home front, Sunday’s Capricorn Moon will give us the energy to tackle and complete unfinished tasks.
June 8 – 14
A nice quiet week awaits, as we move through the two current eclipses occurring in June. Monday’s Capricorn Moon will make this the most productive day of the week, moving us through our tasks and obligations at record speed.
Under Tuesday and Wednesday’s Aquarius Moon, our inventive and social sides will emerge. Focusing on friendships and solutions to current problems, we should be mindful of our emotions and intuitive urgings.
