Weekly Forecast: October 13-17, 2025 – Saucy Venus-Pluto

Do you need help? Have you been trying to get yourself on track, in hand, on your feet? On Monday, it’s time to check in with your heart and feel about inside in order to grasp if you’re getting there in a timely fashion. I get that you can get there on your own, but there comes a time when it makes sense to seek help. Otherwise, you may be stuck laboring to reinvent the wheel.

Over the coming week, we’ve got Mercury moving closer in conjunction to Mars in Scorpio. Deep understanding, deep knowledge flows into action. Put yourself into the places where you’ll investigate and trial possible solutions for your challenges.

On Monday, the Cancer Moon squares the Libra Sun, conjoins Jupiter, and squares retrograde Aries Chiron then goes on to trine retro Saturn in Pisces. The collective mood heightens the effects of the longterm Jupiter-Chiron square and this week’s Sun-Jupiter-Chiron t-square. The collective challenge shows itself up close and personal. Growth is necessary, and if we’ve not yet in active process, we’re propelled this week. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, but this squeaky wheel can get so intense it hurts to encounter… if you’re not doing the work. Put it on your schedule and get started; you’ll feel so much better in the end.

Also Monday, Venus moves from thoughtful Virgo to balance-oriented Libra. It opposes retro Neptune in Pisces Monday night, then trines retro Uranus in Gemini Tuesday morning. Add this into the mix, and with a little effort you’ve got fairy dust. We need to heal big, so kick your dreams into action… or find someone who has the ingredient you need and figure it out. Maybe it’s not an ingredient that you want. Maybe it’s a secret something that only they can bring. Surprise is part of the package.

Monday night, Pluto stations direct in Aquarius. Venus in Libra trines Pluto through this, exact Tuesday night. Some theoretical desire comes untwisted. Do you or don’t you?

Tuesday morning’s Leo Moon trines Neptune, sextiles Venus, sextiles Uranus, and opposes Pluto. Together they form a grand trine and kite. Open yourself up to possibilities you haven’t considered. What you wanted before may not be exactly what you want or need going forward. Open yourself to being pleasantly surprised so that you’ll understand what’s good when you see it. Nighttime takes the Moon into square with Mercury, and the easy titilation of daytime morphs into serious thought (or grizzling).

Wednesday morning, the Leo Moon perfects its square to Scorpio Mercury then goes on to square Mars as well. If things feel rushed, consider whether rushing is helpful. Getting things done well is often more important than getting them done quickly. Rushing breeds irritation and grouchiness. Later, the Moon sextiles the Libra Sun and trines retro Chiron. Perhaps trying again later means better timing and more opportunity to improve and level up your efforts.

On Thursday, the Moon finishes up in Leo and heads into Virgo to square retro Uranus in Gemini. Both are Mercury-ruled signs, and disparate sensory qualities may make the mood disjointed. First one, then the other! Lean on Virgo for organization. Access Gemini for options. Once in Virgo, the Moon also forms the point of a yod, quincunxing Pluto and retro Neptune. There’s a bit of pixie dust left if you’re needing a mood boost. Flow helps access change.

Friday’s Virgo Moon spends much of the day heading into orb of sextile to Mercury-Mars in Scorpio. During this time, Venus in Libra nears the culmination of its sextile to Juno in Sagittarius. From Tuesday afternoon through Friday afternoon, we’re teased by the appearance of passion. It keeps us running through the week, chasing something just down the road, but in a good way. It keeps alive the idea that there’s something out there worthy of wanting, and that we just might catch it. By Friday, we’ve tried on a bunch of glass slippers: Perhaps we’ll find the one (or the many).

Friday night’s Virgo Moon, Mercury-Mars sextile builds excitement. It grounds the sensory with the low hum of the call to physical pleasure. There’s a need to make it real, and reality is in our favor. Options feel grand.

Venus is making a TON of moves this week. Where do the first few degrees of Libra fall in your chart? Do you know what you’re after?
