October horoscope 2024 – what each star sign can expect in the next 4 weeks

Aries

A solar eclipse on October 2 could result in Aries learning a few lessons in love, especially around identity, compromise and respect. On October 17, the full moon in Aries may jolt you into standing up for yourself and prioritising what you really want out of life.

Taurus

Eclipse season will be a wake-up call for Taurus when it comes to work life and personal health. The latter half of October could see you stir up conflict in your relationships if you’re not careful.

Gemini

News of a pregnancy or the arrival of a clandestine love affair could turn your world upside down. Bold decisions could be made in October that could lead to long-lasting changes, if you so wish.

Cancer

Changes within the family unit and relations could lead to an intensity you weren’t expecting. Chasing after your passions will breathe new life into what may seem like mundane routines.

Leo

New opportunities could be coming your way, you just need to be on the lookout for them. Events on October 12 and 22 could be pivotal; now might be the time where your family requires your attention.

Virgo

Financial matters could be on the forefront of your mind, especially if you have family responsibilities. Be aware of any emotions that might be running high at this time; home life may feel all-consuming.

Libra

A focus on your personal goals could build a feeling of motivation and intentionality. Ready to take a bold new direction in your life, trust your intuition to take the next step that is right for you.

Scorpio

A retreat may be just what you need to rediscover a rich inner life, such as a spiritual awakening. Clearing out what no longer serves you means you can usher in new beginnings that are more aligned to who you are today.

Sagittarius

You may feel drawn to new connections, so now could be the best time to start a new hobby. A social calendar of new people should be on the horizon for October, even if that means leaving out outdated friendships.

Capricorn

Your reputation at work might enjoy an unexpected boost, or an unexpected opportunity could present itself. October could be the time when a new job offer comes in, meaning shutting the door on a previous chapter and turning the page onto something new.

Aquarius

You might feel keen to study a new subject, pick up a new skill, or go back to education. From October 17 you could realise what is holding you back in life but take the reins to go into a new direction.

Pisces

Money matters may be playing on your mind, so now could be the time to assess your budget (if you have one). Events during the middle of the month could flag up issues surrounding power and control.
