Pisces, October 2017

You're so psychic, you probably don't need this horoscope, but here it is anyway.

Welcome to Libra season, Pisces! Libra is the sign of balance and of relationships. Yes, early this month, your partnerships are active! Fiery Mars connects with power planet Pluto October 1, stirring up passion, followed by lovely Venus doing the same on October 3. Finally, Venus and Mars meet October 5, focusing the first week of the month on your partnerships, both romantic and platonic, and marking the beginning of a new cycle around relationship.

A full moon in Aries arrives October 5, bringing a focus to your finances—your budget and cash flow—plus your sense of security and self-worth. Full moons are times of release and times of crisis. They bring turning points. You'll learn a lot about your relationship to money and how you value your talents.

Jupiter enters fellow Water sign Scorpio on October 10. This is a big deal, Pisces, since Jupiter is one of your two ruling planets (Neptune being the other). This last year has found you working through complicated emotional issues, even grieving. Lucky planet Jupiter's entry into Scorpio marks a rebirth, or reemergence, for you, little fish.

Expect opportunities to travel to come your way over the next year! Interacting with foreign people, or engaging in a long-distance project or study, is likely, too. (This is an especially lucky time for you if you're in school or applying to programs.) If you're hoping to get something published, Jupiter will help you out!

Venus enters Libra October 14, soon followed by Mars on October 22. Venus loves to be in charming Air sign Libra; however, Mars, the planet of war, isn't so into it. Libra wants us all to get along, which is chill for Venus, but Mars finds this annoying. You, Pisces, can expect sweet connections. (Venus in Libra will bring blessings to your sex life!) You may also find yourself fumbling for a condom as warrior planet Mars awkwardly goes through Libra. You'll have to adjust, but it will be worth it!

The new moon in Libra arrives October 19, a spectacular time to wipe the slate clean on any debts you owe, whether that's your credit card, taxes, or simply an apology to a friend. Libra is the sign of balance—even things out, Pisces.

New moons bring fresh starts, and this one will help you let go of the past. Open up to change and transformation—especially in the realms of sex, intimacy, and trust. You give so much to others, but what do you get in return? Use this new moon's energy to break bad habits. Rethink the give-and-take in your relationships; discover how much deeper you can connect with someone special.

Mercury enters Scorpio October 17, and meets Jupiter October 18, just before Scorpio season officially kicks off on October 23, when the Sun enters the sign. All this planetary focus in Scorpio will find you traveling, exploring new places and learning new things. You're deep as hell, Pisces, and with so much planetary energy in Scorpio, the sign of investigation, you'll find yourself craving understanding about life and the world around you.

Like you, Scorpio is a psychic sign, so while the planet of the mind, Mercury, is traveling through Scorpio, you'll receive a boost in your intuitive abilities. Watch for news October 18, when Mercury meets Jupiter. It's sure to be big (but perhaps exaggerated, too, since Jupiter, the planet of expansion, can overdo things).

Mercury makes a harmonious connection with your ruling planet, Neptune, on October 24, bringing inspiring news from faraway places. Neptune's vibe is dreamy, poetic, and spiritual. Mercury is the planet of communication, so expect interesting conversations. Reassess your belief systems. Drop by a place of worship, or spend time in meditation, and see what news your inner voice brings you.

The Sun meets your other ruling planet, Jupiter, on October 26, which will be a lucky day for you, Pisces, especially if you are abroad, in school, or working on getting something published, or "out there," in the world.

The energy is confident, and dear Pisces, confidence is something you sometimes lack. To end this horoscope, I leave you with three ego boosts: You are brilliantly creative, no one makes having sex in a small bar bathroom as effortless as you do, and without you, the world would totally lack imagination and whimsy. See you next month!
