October Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Aries Horoscope (March 21 - April 19)
Cardinal Fire. Your ruling planet is Mars.

This is a month of deep introspection for you, Aries, not only for your own path but with regard to significant partners in your life as well, and for points of view other than your own. You are mustering reinforcements in all the corners of your existence for transformational change in support of an entirely idealistic vision of what you could become. This may feel confusing at times, or perhaps exhilarating and challenging. It is and just a little scary to buck an existing system even if it is your own. Although it's still a bit early to make concrete the various levels of inspiration that are driving you right now, it won't be long before the doors of opportunity swing wide open.

As the month begins, partnership in your life is important and variable. You are engaged right now in a shifting landscape of relationship dynamics that stem in part from your own deep intuitional center. You are strongly feeling your own uniqueness at the same time that you enjoy and benefit from perspectives other than your own. The trick as always is balance. At the time of the First Quarter Moon of Tuesday, October 7th, you face potential trials in the arena of relationship and also with regard to career incentives. Greater integration is not only possible but concretely realizable and could lead to success in your work in the outer world. Your focus is still largely on partnership and this includes business connections which form another potent set of interchanges at this time. With the Full Moon of Tuesday, October 14th, you are more fully ready to come at life in a way that includes more of your own agenda but yet does not detract from working fruitfully with others. Mercury stations in your relationship sector the next day, so that this entire month may partake of an intellectual review of your possibilities there. In the last two weeks of the month greater consciousness is dawning regarding how partners in your life contribute to your own development. With the Scorpio New Moon on the last Tuesday of the month, taking place on Tuesday, October 28th, there are likely to be important revelations. This is a time when you will be asked to stretch in unforeseen directions, and you may be asked to give up something in the process. Nevertheless you will come out ahead on net results when you allow the dust to settle and evaluate the total picture with the perspective of time.
