Weekly Horoscope: October 5 – 11, 2020
While Halloween is still a few weeks away, we may experience a few spooky moments this week that could leave people pretty batty. Starting on Wednesday, tension fills the autumn air as Mercury (planet of communication) opposes Uranus (planet of change), bringing some shocking, unexpected news.
The struggle continues as Mars (planet of passion) in Aries squares Pluto (planet of transformation) in Capricorn on Friday, creating a cosmic clash. The tension that has been building since last month finally comes to a head as we charge headfirst into confrontations. Beware! These power struggles could be uphill battles for many signs.
Finally, it’s a busy weekend for the planets. Venus (planet of love) trines Uranus on Saturday, making it a great day for romance and money matters. A delightful surprise may be just what you’re looking for right now.
However, don’t get overexcited. On Sunday, the sun (planet of ego) squares Jupiter (planet of abundance), reminding everyone to move slowly. Taking on too much at once means the next few weeks could be quite ghoulish.
