Your Weekly Horoscopes: October 6 to 12, 2024

Though there’s a lot of pressure to make moves and get ahead, much of the next few months for you is about slowing down and re-evaluating what you need to make your home and familiar environment a safe space. Now’s the time to score the soil and get the proper team on board so that by next spring, you’ll enter a beautiful growing season, and by next summer you’ll be harvesting all kinds of hearty produce.

This week’s mantra: “Soil.”

You’re building bridges between your familiar environment and larger goals. Maybe colleagues are becoming close friends, or maybe close friends are becoming colleagues! Seeds are being planted for abundance to arrive early next year. As you adjust to a busier schedule (that will continue through the spring), you’re realizing what truly matters. Sometimes building wealth isn’t about increasing your income but instead about no longer wasting your time on projects and people that don’t fill your cup.

This week’s mantra: “Cup.”

Creative expression is a major theme this week as you take a new approach to dating, explore new hobbies and make more time for artistic goals. Though you may feel some tension between your desires and your ability to afford those desires, try to focus on what this is all revealing about your values. Maybe you’re spending too much on stuff you don’t actually want but is (for now) filling a void. What’s pulling at your heart deserves more resources.

This week’s mantra: “Heart.”

Much of the next few months is going to be about examining all the ways you tend to get in your own way. With Mars in your sign on and off until next April, you’re going to have to find a good treatment plan for all this heat and pressure. It’s not about hiding, it’s about acclimating. A project initiated at home or with your family over the weekend might spark a conflict but also brings you closer to articulating your true desires.

This week’s mantra: “Remedy.”

This week’s lessons come in the form of surrender. With action planet Mars in your unconscious sector since early September (and there on and off through April 2025!), you’re likely feeling restless, stressed, and like some of the skeletons you’ve kept in your closet are no longer avoidable. This isn’t about pushing it through until it’s over but about slowing down to recover. Adjust your schedule this week to allow for more rest, and forgive yourself if that means you have to break some promises.

This week’s mantra: “Surrender.”

The rapid growth you’ve been experiencing in your career and public life comes to a gentle standstill on the 9th when Jupiter stations retrograde. Over the last few months, you’ve learned a lot about duality, and the overwhelm that comes with embracing all your different talents and skills. Being recognized for so much can be exhausting! This week is about defining your values, and understanding how those values may both connect you and differentiate you from your larger industry and community.

This week’s mantra: “Worth.”

Though you tend to shy away from the spotlight, the next few months are going to force you to reckon with your place in the public sphere. The first lesson is about speaking up for yourself, even if what you have to say is going to annoy your partner, best friend, or even your boss. Conflict that arises this week might be uncomfortable for the moment but will eventually pay off as you earn more freedom to do your own thing.

This week’s mantra: “Upstream.”

The next few months are going to be a true voyage for you, Scorpio. Finding a better balance between your big picture and your daily routine has left a lot of room for more travel, education and spiritual exploration. You’re experiencing a deep hunger to get out there and see the world, but setting sail also means facing fears. You don’t have to throw all caution to the wind but a little bit of courage goes a long way.

This week’s mantra: “Brave.”

This week brings some huge news for your closest relationships as expansion planet Jupiter stations retrograde in your partnership sector. Since May, you’ve been leaning into a new era of intimacy and connection and that of course has come with growing pains. The point isn’t to choose but to realize that you have so many choices. The strong commitments you’re making now are opening up your world, not limiting it. The first step is making sure you’re not giving too much of yourself in any one area.

This week’s mantra: “Receive.”

For the next several months, you’re going to be tasked with examining the power dynamics in all of your closest relationships. The process begins this week when conflict arises over the question of: “who’s really in charge here?” This is less about a “power play” and more about owning your ability to take the lead. Your impact might be greater if instead of pushing your agenda, you instead step to the side and observe. Let someone else be responsible for once.

This week’s mantra: “Delegate.”

The next few months are going to be quite an intense grind for you, Aquarius. With Mars spending all of October (as well as January through April 2025) in your daily work sector, you might be feeling an intense pressure to “do a good job.” Though usually this transit comes and goes in a matter of weeks, this time, your task is to alchemize overwhelm into a manageable flow. This process starts with taking stock of the facts and owning what you know.

This week’s mantra: “Flow.”

A period of rapid growth (and probably chaos) in your home and family life comes to a much needed pause as Jupiter stations retrograde on the 9th. You’re discovering that you want curiosity to form the foundation of your life, so how can you best achieve this? Do you need to get a library card? Do you need to take a break from social media to open up your imagination? Take time this week to identify what’s draining you so that you claim more creative space.

This week’s mantra: “Light.”
