24 Oct – 22 Nov
Date: Wednesday 21st October 2026
A partner or very close friend may have a great deal to say about your plans. They might also need you to explain – again- just exactly who is involved in your joint affairs. Issues of privacy and loyalty are likely to arise. Strained relations with a younger person are probable: perhaps because you're not happy with a friendship they've made.

Today could find you at your brilliant best. Not only could you ooze charm, you could deflect a challenge deftly and ensure that the buck stops with someone who ought to be able to score a magnificent goal now that you've paved the way for them. Your role within a team could be noticed too. Romance could benefit through news from a Taurus or Libra (both Venus-ruled): with either or both reminding you of how much they owe to your support.
Date: Friday 23rd October 2026
The big build up of planetary activity in your sign begins and you start to move toward centre stage. For now, others are interested in what you've over-heard rather than your opinion. That situation will change later this week. For now the test may be which information you're prepared to let on that you know about – and which you'd prefer to save as ammunition for another time.
Week: Sunday 18th October – Saturday 24th October 2026
The Sun moves into your sign on Friday and the following day, Mercury turns retrograde in Scorpio. If your birthday falls before mid-November, then your solar return chart includes a retrograde Mercury. Don't view this as a negative but rather a potential asset. Yes, Mercury does demand that you go back over old ground, but this is very good for cementing thoughts. Your ability to absorb information should be increased. Prior to Friday, determining what it is that you want to improve and the optimum course of action for gaining knowledge looks set to be a driving force. This might require returning – or at least reviewing – contact with someone who assisted you in the past. It may be that they can give solid support through the next stage of training.
