Here is the Ask the Astrologers Weekly Astro Forecast for the week of Oct 1, 2018 – Oct 7, 2018:

This week starts with Pluto going stationary direct on Monday, after having spent the last six months in retrograde motion. It’s been retrograde since April 23rd and will turn retrograde again on April 26th, 2019. As Pluto turns direct again you may see suppressed urges and desires returning to the surface (much like the Roman God for which it is named emerges from the underworld in ancient mythology).

This week’s highlights include a Full Moon in Aries, Chiron retrograding back into Pisces, and the asteroid Juno moving into Gemini. We start things off on Monday, with a Mercury / Mars trine , just as the Sun inconjuncts Uranus and Saturn inconjuncts the North Node.

This week starts on Monday, with a first-quarter (and void of course) Moon in Sagittarius. The first-quarter Moon is tied to home, family, security, emotions and needs (among other things). While Sagittarius isn’t particularly comfortable in any of these areas, there are plenty of positive attributes associated with the Sagittarian Moon. Optimism, for one thing. Generosity for another. It’s also good for being truthful about your feelings and for expanding your emotional horizons.

This week starts with an inconjunct between Venus and Chiron on Monday. This aspect can put a strain on your love life by forcing you to look at unhealthy relationship patterns, such as mistaking compassion for love or pity for kindness.

This aspect underscores the potential for missing (or misreading) important social cues. As with all inconjunct aspects, the key to rebalancing this energy is adjusting your own perceptions and adapting your own approach.

This week’s highlights include a planet (Saturn) changing direction, two planets (Mercury and Venus) changing signs, and a New Moon in Virgo.

Starting on Monday, Mercury sextiles Venus. Mercury and Venus are both well placed, with Mercury in mutual reception to the Sun, and Venus in its own sign. Also, as Mercury is the planet associated with words, ideas, and the exchange of information, and Venus is the planet associated with fairness and cooperation, bringing them together in a harmonious (sextile) aspect can make for some very pleasant conversations.

We start this week with Mars going stationary direct on Monday, at its exact degree of exaltation (28 Capricorn). Mars has been retrograde for the last two months, and while it’s much more comfortable moving forward than it is moving backwards, it will take until October 9th to cross its shadow point.

We start the week on Monday, with Mars at the 29th degree of Capricorn, retrograde, out of bounds, and at an anaretic degree. This is a volatile placement for Mars (even though it’s exalted in Capricorn) and should be taken into consideration when making plans or developing expectations.

We start the week on Monday with Mars retrograding back into Capricorn, where it will remain for the next three weeks, during which time it turns direct before re-entering Aquarius. Mars has been retrograde since the end of June and will turn direct again on August 28th, but won’t cross its shadow-point until October 10th.

This week, we have a planet changing signs, a planet changing direction, and the third eclipse of the summer — this one a New Moon solar eclipse in Leo. Starting on Monday, Venus moves into Libra, the sign it co-rules with Taurus. The Libra version is all about objectivity, tact, diplomacy and grace. It’s about striving for harmony in relationship and interacting socially with others rather than engaging in conflict.

It may not seem like we’ve got a lot going on this week, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing happening. There are six planets retrograde, and six planets in the early degrees of their respective signs. We’ve also got Mars out of bounds — and closer to the Earth than it’s been in 15 years, or will be for another 269 years.

Things get up close and personal this week, starting on Monday, with several inconjunct (150 degree) aspects. Inconjuncts require us to make adjustments and to find a middle ground between very dissimilar energies. In this case it involves the three inner (or personal) planets — the Moon, Mercury and Venus, and their relationships with Chiron, Pluto and Mars.

This week, we have a planet changing direction, a planet (and an asteroid) changing signs, a New Moon in Cancer and a partial Solar Eclipse. Starting on Monday, Mercury squares Jupiter, a transit that pits the planet that rules thoughts, ideas and communications against the planet associated with beliefs and higher mind ideals.
