October 2020 Astrology – Time stamped
Full Moon in Aries-1 Oct: 1:17, New Moon in Libra-16 Oct: 3:33, Full Moon in Taurus-31 Oct: 6:46, Samhain Festival: 10:19
We have 3 moons this month- Full Moon in Aries, New Moon in Libra & we end the month, on Halloween, with a Full Moon in Taurus conjunct Uranus; the Sun opposite- fireworks for sure. The Sun is in Libra and Mercury goes retrograde- Pluto goes direct. Mars figures prominently with squares to Saturn and Pluto. The Full Moon in Aries squares Saturn closely & quincunxes the North Nodes of the Moon= challenging changes required with the old and outdated but great opportunities to embrace the new way ahead. The Sun also quincunx Uranus closely so, there may be a struggle and fight…but the opportunities for a positive future are greater! There’s a lot happening this month with surprising events and an uncovering of the shadow side of life and the underbelly of our world with the Mercury retro in Scorpio @ 11 degrees on 14 Oct and Mercury opposes Uranus at 9 degrees Taurus on the New Moon in Libra, along with the Moon/Sun squaring Saturn & Pluto, Mars Retro square Jupiter, & Mars retro sextiles the North Nodes of the Moon, Jupiter exactly sextiles Neptune- this all adds up to us having faith, believing in the bright dream despite all the hullabaloo. Take care with driving and using tools and take care of your head (ruled by Mars) during this Mars Retro in Aries. Maars will square Saturn and Pluto from 1-8th October. The Sun opposes Mars on 14 October, take care this day regarding any sharp things, driving & emotional outbursts. The Sun opposes Pluto on the 21st– another day when cronyism raises its ugly head and is stomped on!! Power & control games come out of the woodwork.
The Gaelic Festival of Samhain is celebrated between the Autumn Equinox and the Winter Solstice on 31October when the veil between the worlds of the living and dead are thinner. We know this as Halloween. Gods make themselves visible to us humans and play games with us mortals!

I checked when Guy Fox tried blowing up the UK Parliament- it was 1605, I was off by a century…I mention this in my video for those interested.
