The passing of time guarantees dust collecting and little piles of clutter forming in your most inhabited spaces. Every so often, it\u2019s necessary to assess your own m\u00e9lange of untidiness with a good rummage through the accumulated mess, both literally and figuratively. The change of seasons\u2014like, now\u2014has always been splendid in motivation to look at things differently and make proper adjustments to suit the time and circumstance.<\/p>\n
October\u2019s medicine is focused on establishing a level of personal orderliness in our environments and inner workings to support the phase of growth we find ourselves in now, as individuals and as a collective. And with Mercury in Libra from October 4<\/strong> to October 22<\/strong>, collaboration and compromise are key to striking a balance empowering progress in the micro and macro. Indeed, power is at an all-time high this month, particularly once Mars moves into intense Scorpio on October 12<\/strong>. Unrelenting stamina heats up probing focus toward something very specific, but that won\u2019t be enough to get what we want.<\/p>\n On October 14<\/strong>, a solar eclipse and new moon in Libra initiate a six-month cycle of growth delivered in a parcel of dynamism and wrapped with a silky ribbon of grace. We have a chance to make lasting changes in our lives with true peace and easy beauty as the end result. But in true Libra fashion, a fine balancing act of sorting and synthesizing the positives and negatives\u2014the dark and the light\u2014is required to realize our vision, along with commitment and effort. In re-balancing, we can recognize that these natural partnerships are on the same team, rather than adversaries.<\/p>\n Throughout the month, the past wrestles to make peace with the future. The Sun and Mercury both enter Scorpio on October 22<\/strong>, the sign most capable of making an imagined reality manifest in the physical. A lunar eclipse paired with a full moon in material-minded Taurus hits on October 28<\/strong>, beginning an emotionally intense cycle of extreme culmination. Passions related to lack and the imbalance of unmet or ignored needs may feel enormously magnified and tender, creating a crisis of sudden awareness. We will need to feed the fire by acting on these primal impulses to achieve resolution. But first, seek counsel with the ghosts nudging you to find a steady and effective path toward destiny, rather than lashing out.<\/p>\n October 4:<\/strong> Mercury enters Libra The passing of time guarantees dust collecting and little piles of clutter forming in your most inhabited spaces.
