What's Up with the Energies of October 2026

October 2026 invites us into a revealing and deeply introspective review of the heart. With Venus retrograde in Scorpio and Mercury beginning its own retrograde journey later in the month, unresolved themes involving love, relationships, money, trust, self-worth, and emotional intimacy may return for greater understanding. Rather than rushing toward decisions, October asks us to look beneath appearances, reconsider what—and whom—we are moving forward with, and recognize where old wounds, fears, or beliefs may still be shaping our choices.

In this episode, Laurie explores October’s major planetary movements, the Libra New Moon, the powerful Taurus Full Moon, and the heightened intuition of the month’s 11/2 numerology, and the impact to each Astrology sign. Discover how to work with this energy through honest reflection, grounded discernment, and a healthier balance between giving and receiving. October begins by asking, “What do I truly value?” and ends by asking, “Does the life I am building reflect those values?”
