These are the horoscopes for week commencing October 9, 2023.

Aries 21 March – 20 April

It’s an excellent time to clear the air and start afresh. Mars moves into Scorpio, encouraging you to cut out all the hot air and say it like it is. If you’re ready to negotiate a deal or reach an agreement, this influence can inspire an honest approach that allows everyone to co-operate more effectively. The Solar Eclipse in Libra can you help take a developing bond to a new level.

Taurus 21 April – 21 May

A new opportunity may show up, and this is your chance to take the initiative if you’re ready. A potent New Moon is perfect for starting a plan, project or a new habit, and by doing so you could be an inspiration to others. In addition, as Mars moves into an intense zone and your sector of relating, you’ll have plenty to share. It’s a good time to clear the air and ring in the changes.

Gemini 22 May – 21 June

Have a great idea? You’ll need to be patient, as with key planets in reverse it could take time to get the results you want. If you can wait, then go for it! Plus, you’ll have an Eclipse helping you make the most of romantic opportunities. Whether solo or spoken for, the weekend can find you willing to share your feelings, while romantic influences suggest they may be reciprocated.

Cancer 22 June – 23 July

Ready for a fresh start? The New Moon inspires you to get moving. Enhanced by a key influence, you’ll have more energy to redecorate and get other key projects underway. Plus, feisty Mars’s move into your leisure zone could inspire you to promote your skills and talents. If you have the makings of a book or any artwork hidden away, now is the time to share it with the world.

Leo 24 July – 23 August

Information, ideas and opportunities may arrive in a flood, and you’ll need to choose wisely. The Solar Eclipse this week can find you busy with offers and fresh opportunities. The smaller decisions you make over coming days will add up, and will help or hinder you. As Mars powers into Scorpio and your domestic sector, you’ll be ready for a declutter and a clean sweep.

Virgo 24 August – 23 September

Matters around finances could flare up, with a New Moon encouraging action. One or more issues may require attention, or you might be keen to start a new job or side-hustle. The sooner the better! And you’ll be inspired to share your ideas and opinions, and connect with others who are passionate about the same things. You could be outspoken, which might upset some.

Libra 24 September – 23 October

Ready to turn over a new leaf? The Solar Eclipse in your sign is one to take seriously. Have a big dream or desire you’re keen to realize? Take those first steps from the weekend and progress could be swift. This might also be a time when you’re ready to make amends with someone, especially if you find yourself missing them. Be the one to reach out and forge a reconnection.

Scorpio 24 October – 22 November

This week could bring a turnaround as the Solar Eclipse inspires you to do something about a situation that seems hopeless. Perhaps someone’s words act as a catalyst, encouraging you to make a stand. You’ll feel stronger, energetic and confident as dynamic Mars enters your sign, Scorpio. The coming six weeks could be rich in meaningful accomplishments.

Sagittarius 23 November – 21 December

With your social life looking busier than ever, the Eclipse in Libra can be a call to connect with like-minded others both online and off. Keen to enhance your social media presence? Now is the time! Plus, as Mars in Scorpio aligns with prudent Saturn, you’ll realize the benefits of constructive habits in helping you to accomplish your goals, and this can change everything.

Capricorn 22 December – 20 January

The Solar Eclipse comes at the perfect time to accomplish a major goal or launch a project. As it occurs in a high-flying zone, you’ll get maximum exposure if you want to showcase your skills or get your name known to all the right people. But as Mars enters Scorpio and your social zone, you’ll be very eager to connect with those who have influence and can help you get ahead.

Aquarius 21 January – 19 February

An idea or opportunity may seem too good to be true, but in this case it isn’t, Aquarius. The Eclipse in a far-reaching zone means you’ll suddenly realise what’s on offer. Don’t take too long to decide as it could be snapped up fast. Even so, as assertive Mars enters Scorpio and the topmost sector of your chart, this is a great time for beating off the competition and getting ahead.

Pisces 20 February – 20 March

It’s time to get something off your chest, and this week’s potent New Moon can inspire you to do just that. It’s not a good idea to tell everyone you’re fine when you’re not. Get it all out in the open, and it might not seem half so bad. In fact, you could feel greatly relieved. Keen to make a success of something? Getting support from resourceful people will be easier from this week.
