Intuitive Astrology with Molly McCord

Venus retrograde returns to Libra on October 25, bringing opportunities for relationship healing, restored balance, conscious communication, and positive karmic developments through early December. As Venus slowly travels through 29 to 22 degrees of Libra, we are invited to reassess our relationships, recognize patterns of people-pleasing and overcompromising. A significant highlight of this Venus retrograde journey is an ongoing Mystic Rectangle involving Venus retrograde in Libra, Chiron retrograde in Aries, Eris in Aries, Jupiter in Leo, South Node in Leo, and the North Node in Aquarius, creating a rare configuration of spiritual alchemy, karmic resolution, and soul evolution. This alignment supports healing old relationship wounds, releasing comparison, jealousy, manipulation, and unconscious emotional patterns, while opening new pathways toward empowered connections, creative expression, and authentic belonging. Venus receives beneficial aspects from the North Node in Aquarius, Jupiter in Leo, and Mars in Leo throughout late October and November, potentially bringing meaningful partnerships, romantic developments, divine unions, renewed confidence, and exciting opportunities that align with our evolving soul frequencies. As Venus stations direct on November 13 at 22 deg Libra, and continues making transformative connections through November 28. We may experience significant turning points, long-awaited resolutions, and a deeper understanding of the relationships and experiences we are now ready to welcome. This Venus retrograde in Libra is ultimately a journey of reclaiming personal sovereignty, restoring fairness and reciprocity, and consciously choosing connections that honor who we have become. More to share in this episode.

This week's astrology brings powerful revelations, emotional breakthroughs, and transformative turning points as we close out Libra season and enter the deep waters of Scorpio. The Sun in Libra opposes Chiron retrograde in Aries at 28 degrees on October 21, highlighting personal healing, stronger self-awareness, and opportunities to respond to relationships from a more empowered version of yourself. On October 23, the Sun enters Scorpio and immediately conjuncts Venus retrograde at 0 degrees Scorpio, creating a significant Venus Star Point that marks the completion of a century-long cycle of feminine healing, shadow work, and patterns involving control, manipulation, self-worth, and emotional empowerment. Then Mercury stations retrograde at nearly 21 degrees Scorpio on October 24, inviting deeper introspection, conscious communication, and the uncovering of hidden truths that require time to emotionally process. Venus retrograde then reenters Libra, supporting greater objectivity, relationship clarity, and the ability to detach your self-worth from the actions of others. The Taurus Full Moon on October 26 at 2 degrees 46 minutes forms an intense fixed T-square with Pluto in Aquarius at 3 degrees, illuminating tangible realities around finances, investments, personal values, relationships, and what is no longer worth your time, money, or energy. On October 28, Venus retrograde in Libra opposes Chiron in Aries at 28 degrees, offering opportunities for meaningful repair, accountability, and healing where relationships are worth preserving. With both Mercury and Venus retrograde until November 13, this is a significant period of soul-level transformation, where uncomfortable truths can become powerful wisdom, outdated patterns can permanently end, and your intuition guides you toward greater self-love, personal sovereignty, and conscious choices for the future. So much happening as Scorpio season begins!

The final Mercury retrograde of 2026 travels through Scorpio from October 24 to November 13, taking us on a powerful journey into hidden truths, subconscious patterns, emotional revelations, and deeper soul wisdom. Mercury stations retrograde at 21° Scorpio at October 24 while squaring Jupiter in Leo and the Nodes of Fate in Aquarius and Leo, signaling significant turning points, heightened intuition, and important information that may challenge existing beliefs, desires, and attachments. With Venus also retrograde and re-entering Libra on October 25, relationships, partnerships, financial agreements, shared resources, trust, and power dynamics require greater discernment and reconsideration. Mercury retrograde squares Mars in Leo on October 30, potentially activating intense emotional reactions, while the Mercury cazimi at 12° Scorpio on November 4 can bring meaningful insights into conscious awareness. An extended Mercury square to Pluto in Aquarius at 3 degrees from approximately November 8 to 18 intensifies the potential for psychological breakthroughs, collective revelations, power struggles, and questions surrounding privacy, surveillance, technology, and hidden agendas. As both Mercury and Venus station direct on November 13, new clarity begins to emerge around what needs to change, heal, or be released permanently.

This week's astrology can bring renewed clarity around what we truly desire as we complete Libra season with a strong Plutonic influence. Thankfully on October 14 and 15, the Sun in Libra sextiles Jupiter in Leo at 21 and 22 degrees, supporting optimism, creative opportunities, and inspired forward movement, especially after the Libra New Moon last Saturday. Pluto stations direct at 3 degrees Aquarius on Oct 15, awakening profound realizations, intuitive insights, and greater personal empowerment that may activate more clairvoyance and claircognizant gifts that reveal what we need to see. On Oct 16, Mars in Leo trines Saturn retrograde in Aries at 10 degrees, providing stability and determination to move ahead with important decisions. Very productive energies this week! Then on October 19, Venus retrograde in Scorpio squares Pluto in Aquarius at 3 degrees, intensifying themes of power, control, hidden truths, financial attachments, and the need to release what has run its course. The Sun in Libra opposes Chiron retrograde in Aries at 28 degrees on October 21, highlighting relationship healing, personal sovereignty, and the courage to honor our authentic needs. Acknowledging what you have healed will generate confidence, even amongst others who have a different perspective or opinion to offer. With Mercury preparing to station retrograde in Scorpio on October 24, we are encouraged to slow down, trust our intuition, and reconsider what truly matters. More to share in this week's episode.

Well hello Libra new moon! ♎🪷⚖️ It is exact on Saturday October 10th at 17 degrees in your chart, and offers an intentional balancing point within yourself to make clear conscious choices.

Libra energy is where we integrate masculine and feminine energies internally, and then objectively observe how those energies are showing up externally.

When you are aligned and deeply in tune with yourself, you feel a natural peace and harmony that travels into all areas of your life.

What is your intention for this new moon? ♎
