Aquarius Horoscope for October 2017

This is a powerful month for you, Aquarius, continuing your surge from the last ten days of September, when the Virgo New Moon brought you greater intimacy with your fellow humans, and most importantly with yourself. A potent combination of astrological factors – whose influence extends to the first half of October – has you profoundly engaged in overt curiosity, learning, and educational or travel initiatives of all kinds, with mystical overtones and depth researches into your own inner world. All through October in fact, punctuated by the Libra New Moon of October 19th, you are even more greatly in the spotlight while your love life continues to sizzle, in the largest and most humanitarian sense, and career opportunities abound. You find that your worldview is expanding, and that you benefit from an ongoing sea change in the way that you view the important inner dimension of the darker and more hidden layers of your personality.

There have been a lot of changes in the air in the recent months for you, Aquarius, and some of those may have come out of left field. Of course, you have dealt with these challenges like the master improviser that you are, and you have worked well with the curve balls that have been thrown at you. Unforeseen circumstances have shifted your perspective, and you have been questioning or re-envisioning what it is that you want for yourself. It could be that the shoe does not fit anymore, or that the trajectory you were walking is not leading you where you thought you wanted to be. Something is shifting and that is totally ok. Let the chips fall where they may.

Partnerships of all kind have a big role to play in your current state of mind, and October will be no exception. Being involved with others always bring some form of complication, and sometime we have to ask ourselves if it is worth the trouble. The sign of Aquarius is known for being mostly rational, or at least cool-headed in emotional situations. Decisions are usually based in connection to your own personal projects, and rarely do you make drastic moves on behalf of other people that may prefer a slow approach to commitment. The October 5th Full Moon in Aries is highlighting the polarity between your immediate surroundings and the promise of something distant and exotic. This polarity could also have something to do with an important partnership, and you could feel divided between the requirements of your current living arrangement and the desire for something out of your reach. Either way you put it, you will have to sort out your commitments to others this month.

Much can come from staying receptive to what other people are asking from you. You might also be surprised at how much pleasure you will derive from your partnerships. You benefit when you can let go of any rigid expectations you have for yourself and your agenda, and remain flexible to what someone is offering at this time.

The New Moon in Libra on October 19th is your cue to heed to the call of a distant siren. Combining travel and education could be a great way to do this but good planning will be essential. It could also be that a love interest is on the horizon, but not immediately realistic. You will most likely have to tie many loose ends and delegate some of your responsibilities before it's all said and done. This New Moon in Libra is also prompting you to reflect on the state of your relationships and the way you handle them. The current Eclipse cycle on the Leo/Aquarius axis is subtly weaving your destiny with the destiny of others and these stories will continue well into 2018. This month will show you who are the players in this thread, and what requirements are needed to maintain these relationships going. Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love.
