Leo Horoscope for October 2013

This is a good month for learning and growing, Leo. You find yourself in some strange conceptual territory, with hardly anyone to guide you, so that you must become the local expert on unfamiliar terrain. Enlightenment dawns not slowly but in rapid fits and starts. Your concept of home family and tribe, your basis for psychological security, as well as other important ties, is changing and being refined by means of a process of deep reflection. You might sometimes feel like you are participating in a mystical game of self and other, with no boundaries and with no real rules, so that you have to make them up as you go along. Somewhere down deep inside yourself you believe that this is all for a very real soul purpose, so that embracing this concept could prove be your guiding light.

As the month begins, you are feeling the pinch of circumstance. You are engaged in reviewing your entire situation and attempting to find the pieces that fit and examine those that do not with a strong motivation to make necessary changes. This will vary from individual to individual, but the chances are that some element of perception that has been omitted from your conscious understanding until recently is beginning to grow on you in such a way as to demand more concrete results. There is an obvious idealism that you must be present to in order to have the vision for change, and a gut-level determination that demands that you see it through.

With the Sun, your ruler, occupying the communications sector of your solar chart, there may be a new willingness now to engage in learning activity of an important kind, as well as be more communicative about what you are going through to trusted others in your circle of advisors or perceptive partners. Throughout the first week of the month these intuitions grow and you feel the restlessness implicit in inaction until perhaps coincident with the energy of the New Moon, you stop resisting and begin to actually do something about it.

Both Uranus and Pluto are activated at the end of this first week, and represent a one-two punch of impressive dimensions that incline you to new and more productive vision. You are feeling the conviction that you need to make your life count for more than just a placeholder for the common conceptions of consensus thinking. Pluto resides in your sector of day-to-day concerns and health regimens so that these areas might be up for review, as well as how you show up in the world in greater or lesser alignment with your deepest soul purpose. Your way forward is unique to yourself or it is not working for you any longer. These subjects become the object of a more meditative concern later in the month, after Mercury has begin its retrograde motion in your sector of home and family, and your psychological roots.

How you choose to handle the tough aspects of this monthly time frame has implications as well for the intimate relationships of your life, which are also in transition. There you might feel the pull of both idealism and confusion, and the painful necessity to dig down deep within yourself to see what you can of what makes you tick as you pursue close connection with others. You go far by accepting that you are in transition, that the cosmos is your friend, and that everything that is happening to you now is for a real reason. By simply putting one foot ahead of the other with some degree of faith in your process you are doing a lot to sustain yourself in the midst of change, and to make a productive start on these next few months when your world is in further major flux.
