The Astrological Monthly Forecast for October 2025
Welcome to October 2025!
We have entered the last quarter of 2025, the Year of the Wooden Snake.
Autumn is in full swing; slowly, nature is turning into gold and red, becoming more tranquil.
The last part of 2025, due to the retrogradation of Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus, will be characterized by disintegration, the exposure, breaking up, and leveling of the last old structures, systems, and organizations before reconstruction is possible.
It is not without reason that so much is being demolished, broken up, and destroyed simultaneously.
In fact, we are in the middle of an astrological construction site.
The world is embroiled in a geopolitical power struggle.
The struggle for natural resources, control of strategic areas, and critical ideological ideas are the main causes of impending escalation.
The world faces armed territorial disputes, political attacks and cyber warfare, upheaval, chaos and false flags, global security issues, and mass demonstrations.
However, in the last three months of 2025, the Great Benefactor Jupiter in Cancer will form a harmonious Water Trine with Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, offering a glimmer of hope for a diplomatic solution, cooperation, and the forging of new political alliances.
From May 2026, planetary giants Saturn and Neptune will be stationary in Aries, and Uranus in Gemini. The spring of 2026 is therefore known as the Great Reset.
The beautiful astrological partnership between Uranus in Gemini, Neptune in Aries, and Pluto in Aquarius will continue until February 2027.
This cosmic partnership is a beacon of hope in this troubled and polarized world of violence and opens the gate to the Age of Aquarius!
The era of the digital universe, new structures, radical technological developments, equality and collective ideals, identity, freedom of expression, autonomy, and cultural self-preservation.
Let’s first take a look at what we can expect from October 2025!
October 2025 is a month of transformation, unrest, and challenges.
The first three weeks of October 2025, with the Sun in Libra, will be all about balance, productivity, and communication, but also about the need to adapt to circumstances.
As the month progresses, the influence of the Sun, Mercury and Mars in transformative Scorpio will shift the energy inward, toward a serious energy that demands stability and clarity.
On October 7, 2025, there will be a Full Supermoon at 14º08 in the fire sign of Aries.
The tenth Full Harvest Moon of 2025, or the Hunter’s Moon in the constellation Andromeda, is at perigee (the Moon is closest to Earth), causing the Moon to shine brighter.

On October 8, 2025, we can look forward to the Draconids Meteor Shower in the constellation Draco. The meteors originate from comet 21P Giacobini-Zinner, discovered in 1900.
The Draconids are best seen in the early morning. The Draconids visit us every year from October 6th to 10th, but the peak will occur on October 8th, 2025.
Pluto will go direct in Aquarius on October 13th, 2025, after a long retrograde period.
This opens the door for large-scale transformations such as technological innovation and scientific breakthroughs.
From October 14th to 17th, 2025, Venus in Libra will form a Grand Trine in Air with Uranus and Pluto. A unique mix of energies will emerge, leading us to expect diplomatic breakthroughs and innovative solutions, such as the formation of alliances or partnerships in health, economics, the environment, and sustainable living.
The cosmic mix of Uranus in Gemini and Pluto in Aquarius also gives free rein to tornadoes and firestorms in the most unexpected places on Earth, as well as wildfires, whether or not caused by human activity. Due to the influence of Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Pisces, we should expect heavy rain, leaks, mudslides, flooding, water damage, and damage to infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and railways.
In the second half of October 2025, Jupiter in Cancer will form a square with retrograde Chiron in Aries. This tense aspect will remain in effect until the end of December 2025 and will repeat for the last time in June 2026.
Cancer and Aries are both cardinal signs, and at the last degree of Cancer/Aries, a major event must be anticipated that will trigger collective pain or a karmic wound. Themes will arise regarding family, connection and our sense of security, mental health, children, self-esteem, and injustice.
We are seeing an increase in burnout complaints, heart problems, exhaustion, waterborne illnesses and mental stress, an increase in infectious diseases, and problems with food distribution and healthcare.
From mid-October to mid-December 2025, a beautiful Water Trine will form between Jupiter in Cancer, retrograde Saturn, and Neptune in Pisces. The abundance of Jupiter in Cancer and the magic of Neptune in Pisces are anchored by Saturn’s earthy structure.
This Water Trine brings intuitive flow, a revival of Christian values, major developments in water management, shipping routes, and the network of deep-sea internet cables, which are crucial to our digital infrastructure.
However, the Water Trine also increases the risk of flooding and waterlogging, erosion, and structural damage from downpours, landslides, or other problems due to erosion or tides.
From October 20 to 21, 2025, we can once again enjoy the highlight of the annual Orionid meteor shower in the constellation Orion. The Orinids pass by us every year from October 2 to November 7. The “shooting stars,” about 20 meteors per hour, are dust particles originating from Halley’s Comet.
The New Moon at 28º22 in the air sign Libra on October 21, 2025, brings us bittersweet news from which lessons can be learned.
Even though we live in a polarized world where many live for themselves, this New Moon offers an opportunity to restore the disturbed balance.

For the very last time, starting October 23, 2025, retrograde Neptune shifts back into its own sign Pisces and remains retrograde on its last degree in Pisces until December 9, 2025.
Neptune’s final return to Pisces can be a reality check to balance imagination and practice and separate inspiration from illusion.
Neptune retrograde in Pisces shows reality as it is, not as we would like it to be.
On October 24, 2025, the Sun enters the water sign of Scorpio.
Over the next four weeks, the Sun will shine a light on all hidden things: our desires, passions, motivations, secrets, and underlying thoughts.
It’s an all-or-nothing energy that makes us look at love, money, power, and life in a penetrating way. This plutonic energy wants to let go of everything that no longer serves the flow of life.
And even though it can be difficult to let go of the old and familiar, letting go opens doors to life’s deeper purpose!
On October 27, 2025, Mars in Scorpio forms a Grand Water Trine with Jupiter in Cancer and retrograde Saturn in Pisces, and that could be the best day of the month!
With this beautiful connection in Water, the cosmic light turns to green, making it a fantastic transit to accomplish something or fulfill a wish.
We conclude October 2025 with All Saints’ Day, or Halloween, on October 31, 2025.
Halloween, All Hallows’ Eve, or Samhain is the ritual Celtic New Year! Samhain symbolizes the country’s resting season and marks both the end and the beginning of the new year.
Generally, October 2025 and the rest of 2025 will be a time for processing and preparing for the changes that will manifest in 2026.
Be prepared for many changes in the financial and economic spheres. Bank interest rates will fall, the cost of living, housing, and energy will rise, and inflation and unemployment will increase.
October 2025 may be a challenging time until the end of 2025, but much can be achieved in the long run.
The intensity of the turmoil and chaos demands a great deal of our adaptability, strength, and courage.
Through courage, patience, and trust, we will climb out of the cosmic rubble to welcome the dawn of a new era.
Wishing all my dear readers a beautiful and safe October!
