It’s Scorpio season and we currently have six planets in water signs—Sun, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune—and they are all in harmony with each other. This is a beautiful gift of creative and emotional intelligence operating with intuitive flow. Saturn and Neptune are Retrograde in multi-dimensional Pisces for a final sweep to clear, release or cleanse what is complete and to receive guidance regarding next steps and restructuring.
Expansive Jupiter in Cancer trines Saturn until Dec ’25, supporting growth and stability, inspiration and practical efforts, especially good timing. This is especially helpful for making plans and moving forward with confidence. The Sun, Mars and Mercury are all in Scorpio, on a deep dive to uncover your emotional truth and to facilitate your rebirth.
Surrender the Not Self, the programming, the indoctrinations that framed your beliefs and taught you what was acceptable and how to be. Be willing to reassess and feel what is true for you on a deeper level. The old structures no longer apply and it’s time to rewrite your story as you choose it to be.
Oct 24 – Sun square Pluto. Know that pressure, power dynamics or revelations that shift the playing field are for your evolution. We’ll see this on the global stage, but if you experience it personally, face what you’re being shown. Get the message. Recognize where you’re giving your power away to recover your empowerment. This intense energy is the path to truth, emotional honesty and freedom, but it’s not always gentle. It is profound for inner exploration and healing work, as Pluto reveals what is buried, which is the path to authenticity. Clear the debris, awaken to your new awareness and a higher frequency.
Mercury and Mars will make multiple aspects this week, shaping your thinking and actions, supporting your ideas and plans going forward. Plus, everything that happens this week will be up for review during Mercury Retrograde, as this territory will be retraced by Mercury on her backward path. Technically, we are in Mercury’s “shadow” right now. So this means everything doesn’t have to be perfect. It’s not solid yet, there will be tweaks and revisions as part of the evolution of anything you create or become.
All of these are part of the flowy Grand Water Trine (except Mercury in Sagittarius and Uranus in Gemini).
Oct 24 – Mercury trine Jupiter. Open your mind, stretch beyond your usual sight-line to see a bigger picture. Find meaning that inspires you and beckons you to move with passion, transcending fear, self-doubt or any limitations that were placed in your small, egoic mind.
Mercury-Jupiter sees possibilities (and knows they can work), has bright ideas, beneficial conversations, harmonious connections, makes smart plans and will act with conviction on its beliefs. Watch for good news – or better yet, create your own good news. This goes to rewriting your story. Yes to expansion!
Oct 25 – Mercury trine Saturn. Back to earth, ready to make decisions, indicates practical thinking, writing, speaking, organization and serious projects. Mercury-Saturn is strategic, with focus on creating things that last. Saturn brings ideas into form by making them real; it’s good for making agreements, commitments and signing contracts or finalizing a plan. Stable, solid, realistic.
Oct 27/28 – Mars trine Jupiter. Ready for action with focus, faith and flow. Mars in Scorpio acts with laser focus, while Jupiter amplifies with enthusiasm and can-do energy. This is a winner for taking bold actions with confidence.
Oct 29 – This is a busy day of aspects, which I’ll list below in order of appearance.
Mercury trine Neptune. Attune to your dreams, your intuitive guidance and create space for multi-dimensional awareness today, as messages may come via creative endeavors, spiritual practices or other right-brain activities. Open and be receptive to what comes through for you.
Mercury in Sagittarius. Mercury won’t move past Sagittarius until Jan 2, 2026 because it turns Retrograde on Nov 9 and eventually returns to Scorpio, then goes Direct and retraces Scorpio territory back into Sagittarius, so it will be a long Sag/Scorpio journey – back and forth.
Mercury in Sagittarius is expansive, upbeat, can be an inspired speaker or teacher of Higher Truth or spiritual teachings. This Mercury is a messenger with something to say, not so much a listener. It’s goal is to make meaning of the info it gathers—or maybe it gathers info to support what it believes. It works either way. When Mercury returns to Scorpio it dives deep to research and investigate, it’s secretive and internal. Mercury in Sag is more extroverted with a desire to connect. Up and out vs. down and in.
Mars trine Saturn. Like Mercury-Saturn above, this is about practical actions that create lasting structures, stable plans, making progress and building momentum re: long term projects. This is steady, strategic efforts toward important goals with a methodical approach.
Mercury opposite Uranus. This is some unexpected news, info, curveball, idea, sudden genius or change of plans that shifts the trajectory, either breaking momentum or redirecting efforts. It can be a glitch or interference. Maybe you’re being asked to rethink on a higher level or from a different perspective, rather than the way you’re moving. Be flexible, curious, tap into your genius. I promise you, you are way more brilliant than you know.
Oct 30 – Mercury sextile Pluto. Pluto takes you to the depths to explore new possibilities through your mind. Be willing to go all-in on what you are passionate about so you can “see” what maybe you never saw before. Conversations can be magnetic, deep, provocative, opening new areas for direction and possibility. Pluto in Aquarius wants to approach topics in a fresh, upgraded way, to pursue ideas that maybe you haven’t tried before. Allow yourself to fully utilize your big ideas and adventurous soul to see where you land. Follow your bliss…
This is a stimulating week of magical, emotional support, stimulation and unlimited possibilities. Make the most of what’s available for you and move beyond your old perceived limitations if you want to grow. You will be the winner if you do at least one thing you thought was out of reach. It’s not mandatory, just a suggestion, with all this fertile can-do, inspired energy.
Be willing to operate with clarity, focus, ease and grace. It’s time to discover that there are more gifts that live within you, just waiting to be discovered.
Challenges inspire action and harmonious aspects offer insight, grace and flow. Don’t stare at what’s wrong and miss the magic, possibilities and blessings that support your well being and feed your spirit.
I am always grateful for your presence on our journey together. 🌷

“The New Earth is not a place. It is a frequency. It is a timeline where humanity remembers who we are. It is built through consciousness, compassion, and cooperation. It is where the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine are balanced. Where the Earth is honored as a living being. Where truth is not hidden and love leads.” ~ Jolie Wilson
