(July 23 – August 22)
General
October 2025 is a dynamic and overwhelming month of challenges and opportunities.
Your discernment is essential this month, so know when to take action and when to step back.
October is a month of deliberate steps in your professional life and thoughtful diplomacy in personal relationships as preparation for what’s to come!
The focus this month is on love, finances, foreign affairs, your immediate surroundings, home, and family.
Love and Relationships
Aquarius is the opposite sign of Leo.
Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, the 7th House of Relationships, underscores the energy of retrograde Uranus in Gemini (House of Friendships), encouraging Leo to release old patterns in your relationships that no longer serve you and to focus on more authentic, balanced relationships that truly inspire you and support your growth.
The Full Moon in Aries on October 7, 2025, is a wonderful time to celebrate love and embark on a journey with your loved one! The transit of Venus in Libra from October 14, 2025, is favorable for proposing.
The North Node in Pisces (8th House of the Soul, Transformation and Shared Wealth) indicates emotional growth, where commitment and mutual trust are key.
With Mercury in Sagittarius (5th House of Love) from October 29, 2025, you’ll be able to find the right words and open your heart.
Family and Home
The first three weeks of October 2025, with the Sun in Libra, Venus in Virgo, and Mars in Scorpio, are a busy and vibrant period for you. This is the best time for an autumn trip or to give your home a makeover or carry out repairs. Pluto retrograde in Aquarius in the first half of October 2025 can cause power struggles and conflict in the family, such as with siblings.
The transit of Mercury and Mars in Scorpio in the second half of October 2025 is a favorable period for spending more time with your family or those you consider family, or for improving your relationships with them.
On October 21, 2025, there is a New Moon in Libra, and with this New Moon, there may be important news about your home and improvements with close relatives, neighbors, siblings, schoolmates, and people who think like you. This is a New Moon for setting and manifesting intentions. You may need to let go of a rigid attitude or belief.
With the Sun in Scorpio from October 24, 2025, a decision needs to be made regarding the home or family members. At the end of October 2025, there may be news, such as a wedding, the birth of a child, and the purchase of a house.
Career
Due to retrograde Neptune in Aries in the 9th House of Philosophy, Study, and Travel, there may be delays during travel or study, but this will help you learn more about yourself and your spiritual purpose. October 2025 is most successful for Leos involved in technology and the visual arts.
For the self-employed, October 2025 is all about growth. Careful planning, expertise, self-confidence, intuition, foresight, as well as reflection and recognition of what has and has not worked are the keys to success. Strategic decisions based on lessons learned help avoid unnecessary missteps.
Your persuasiveness can come in handy during negotiations and public speaking.
New contacts are valuable for the future, so go networking!
October 2025 is not a month for resting on your laurels. Success is achievable through hard work and strategic risk-taking. With Mars in Scorpio this month, pay particular attention to details and only make a decision when you are certain about a situation and aware of all the details.
Finances
Virgo represents the 2nd House of Finances.
The September 2025 Eclipses on the Virgo/Pisces axis will have a profound impact on Leo’s financial situation over the next six months.
It is a powerful time to let go of old fears about trust or control over money, both professionally and personally. A financial breakthrough or emotional liberation will bring peace and tranquility to your heart.
The transit of Venus in Virgo until October 13, 2025, makes Leo cautious and frugal.
This is the best time to make an investment, because small purchases will not be bad buys. For the self-employed, money will not be wasted, but spent wisely. The first half of October 2025 is also a favorable time to put items up for sale, declutter your home, and carry out repairs.
Be mindful of your spending on October 18, 2025, as the Sun in Libra squares Jupiter in Cancer. You’ll spend more than you’d like or can afford.
October 2025 is generally a favorable month for making a major financial change or investment.
Health
Cancer represents the 12th House of Cosmic Consciousness and Letting Go.
The transit of Jupiter in Cancer is a phase of spiritual growth, introspection, reflection, processing, clearing, and letting go. During this powerful time of healing and releasing past traumas, you will find yourself seeking peace within yourself.
Leo needs plenty of rest to prevent mental and physical stress.
The atmosphere around you influences your mood, so when the atmosphere is pleasant and harmonious, you feel at your best.
Saturn, ruler of the sixth house (Capricorn), is retrograde in Pisces. An old ailment such as back pain or joint pain can cause problems. Take time to distance yourself if everything around you feels overwhelming.
Advice
Careful financial planning, objectivity, and thriftiness remain essential to ensure a stable financial position.
October 2025 can be somewhat complicated. Harmony is only possible if you maintain patience and dignity. Minor conflicts can easily be resolved in October 2025 with patience and a willingness to compromise.
As long as you listen and pay attention, there’s no problem, so don’t interrupt conversations or make critical remarks. Self-control is key now, in love and in all social situations.
