Here is the Ask the Astrologers Weekly Astro Forecast for the week of Oct 23, 2016 – Oct 29, 2016:
We start the week on Sunday with Jupiter and Neptune involved in a quincunx (or inconjunct) aspect. Jupiter and Neptune are co-rulers of both Sagittarius and Pisces, which means they share a special affinity. But what happens when they’re involved in an aspect that’s characterized by tension and frustration?
Venus enters Sagittarius on Tuesday, October 18th at 7:00 am UT (or 3:00 am EDT). If you were lucky enough to be born with this Venus, you’re probably generous, vivacious, outgoing and expansive.
You’re known for being up-beat and optimistic, always seeing the glass as half-full, and always up for a good time.
Venus represents “love” among other things. Sagittarius is related to personal growth and expansion, travel, religion, philosophy, higher education and ideas.
Venus in Sagittarius people tend to love all of these things, even though they’re prone to engage in heated debates about them. They tend to be spontaneous, adventurous and happy-go-lucky.
They say what’s on their mind and in their heart — often at the most inappropriate times! They’re know for putting their feet in their mouths,but are usually very good-natured. They can laugh at themselves and can take a joke, as long as it’s told without malice.

We start this week with a Full Moon — Beaver Moon — at 23° Aries 14′ on Sunday. This is a powerful and potentially volatile Full Moon, first because it is a Super Moon (meaning that it’s closest to the Earth in its orbit) and also because it’s very closely conjunct to Uranus.

We start this week with the Moon moving into first quarter phase (at 16 Capricorn 18′) on Sunday. This first-quarter Moon is closely conjunct Pluto, and will square Uranus before the day is through. This is a rather volatile signature, with the potential for power struggles and emotional confrontations exceedingly high.

We start the week on Sunday with Mercury opposite Chiron and inconjunct Uranus, while Neptune inconjuncts the Sun and sextiles Venus. Starting with the Mercury aspects: as Mercury is the planet that rules thoughts, ideas and communications, this combination can be particularly tricky.
The Chiron opposition can see you feeling inadequate or wallowing in self-pity. It can also leave you susceptible to deception — including your own. Don’t get caught up in drama and don’t let your compassion for others cloud your thinking.

This could be a busy week, with one planet changing signs (Mars), one planet changing direction (Pluto) and the second New Moon of the month (depending on where in the world you’ are located).
Venus enters Scorpio on September 23, 2016 at 10:51 UT (2:51 pm ET). Venus is said to be debilitated in Scorpio, as it is the sign opposite its natural ruler (Taurus). Venus in Scorpio is said to be in its fall.
There are some disadvantages to having a planet in “fall” or “detriment,” due more to societal norms and expectations than anything else. As such, Venus is not particularly comfortable in Scorpio, where the naturally romantic, self-indulgent, partnership-oriented archetype struggles to express itself through the intense, passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpionic filter.
Even so, there are a lot of wonderfully unique attributes associated with this placement, as evidenced by some of the examples listed herein.
Venus is the “love” planet, representing how you give and receive love and affection, as well as what you find aesthetically appealing. What’s attractive to you? And how do you express love and affection?
Venus also rules “money” as in earning potential and income, as in how you handle money, what you spend it on, and whether you’re attracting it to you or seeing it run through your fingers like water.

Coming on the heels of last week’s stressful planetary activity, this week starts with one somewhat difficult aspect — a Venus / Uranus opposition — and then follow up with a few more favorable transits through the remainder of the week.

We’ve got a busy and somewhat volatile week ahead of us, with the personal planets all interacting with one another — for better or worse — as well as a Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse.
We start with a Venus Pluto square on Sunday. This can be a stressful aspect as far as relationships are concerned, especially if there’s been tension brewing for you and your partner / love interest in recent weeks. Venus and Pluto in hard aspect can intensify emotional responses and is known to produce some very unsavory reactions. Like jealousy, obsession, suspicion and paranoia.

We start the week with the Sun conjuncting the North Node at 12° Virgo on Sunday. This aspect can bring someone new into your life who turns out to play a meaningful role. Particularly in terms of self-actualization or individuation. As the Nodes are said to be karmic in nature, this person may not be “new” at all, but have strong past life ties.
The Sun/ North Node contact can also describe a change in direction as far as your social relationships are concerned. Aligning yourself with a different group of people or inviting new friends into your circle for example.
