The Week Ahead for Aquarius
Monday, October 5th – Sunday, October 11th
You may still be feeling the effects of Pluto’s recent purge. Even on a good day, a Pluto transit can drain your physical and emotional resources but on a bad day, it can make you feel exposed and vulnerable. Revealing what lies beneath is Pluto’s job, and what emerges into the light, like the genie in the bottle, can’t be stuffed back. Which is where Saturday’s new moon comes in. Taking place in the zone of far horizons, the bigger picture is all-important. While this new moon may portend a journey of importance in the near future, it is also urging you to look beyond your present circumstances, to rise above them.
Seeing beyond.

Monday, September 28th – Sunday, October 4th
First rule of fight club: know your enemy. And we’re not necessarily talking about a person but a behaviour, a situation or a pattern that continues to get in the way of your hopes and ambitions. Mars and Pluto are both angling Pluto and while this may translate as a massive win for you, this combo can bring a situation to a tipping point. Either way, this is not an easy week. Much could be demanded of you, and it will be important to know what lies at the root of a development. Maybe someone is not going to play ball with you or perhaps there is no further to go with a situation but how you handle events is the real test. Be the bigger person.
Rising above it.

The Month Ahead for Aquarius
October 2026
October can be summed up in three words: the big push. Pluto’s groundbreaking signature is on events, and especially during the first week, what was once believed to be unchanging and unchangeable does just that, change. Some Aquarians will be taking on a much bigger role while others will be downsizing and facing an uncertain future. The 26th’s full moon has a similar potential to end old orders and usher in new ones, albeit over the course of the next few months. You get what you wished for in October, even if you believe you have not.

The Year Ahead for Aquarius
February 17 presents the first opportunity to see what the eclipses in Aquarius and Leo have in store, 12 August is another, and in between, the periods of 20-27 January, 20-29 July and 2-4 October have enough fire-power to turn an ordinary life into something out of the ordinary. These are not easy periods but when was anything worth having easy to achieve… Being in the right place at the right time, being just the person people want and having the courage to take a leap of faith are all trends most Aquarians will encounter. And if you’ve been complaining that nothing ever happens to you, be careful what you wish for.
