Monthly Horoscope for October

This is a really good month to stick to routine and keep the tempers in check. Planet Mars remains retrograde and will account for short attention spans and impatience being close to the surface. Try to look at the longer view and detach from immediate reactions.

Planet Mercury also begins another period of apparent retrograde motion on the 13th. It will remain so until November 3rd. As always, it is better to redo and rework projects that have already begun during this time. You can plan ahead and start a few in the beginning of this month. Just remember that, while intuition is accented, logic takes a back seat during these retrograde times. Whatever your bottom line in decisions may somehow vanish in the new interpretation of events. This is actually a great time to see things in a new light but it is often better to wait until Mercury returns to its forward motion before making any final decisions. Stick to your own basic routines for best results.
