All times are Eastern; adjust for where you live. MONDAY, OCT 26: FULL MOON IN TAURUS The moon is full at 12:12 a.m. ET in Taurus, lit by the Scorpio sun. Taurus is about what we value, and Scorpio adds depth. So we’re looking at possessions, certainly, but also relationships with real meaning. Strong Taurus people don’t lack depth, but with the Scorpio sun on this point, all of us are looking closely at what we care about. A dear friend of mine is unloading decades of possessions. (If she’s listening, she’ll know.) That’s this moon: these things matter because of memories: where I passed through, where they came from, who they connect me to. But the Scorpionic truth is that what we take with our last breath is love and connection to spirit, not the possessions we held most dear. So look at what takes up space and ask: does it carry legacy? What remains after we leave? That reflection comes naturally as late October leads into Día de Muertos, Halloween, and Samhain — when the veil thins. Many people in Mexico live with the awareness that every day is a gift and our time is temporary. As a result, life becomes more joyous. Even in difficulty, there’s breath, life, and the ability to love and connect. This Full Moon isn’t an eclipse, and it lacks the culminating punch of some full moons. It’s an integration: a chance to look at our relationship with love, money, home, and what we value. It can also stir struggle, a sense of not enough money, love, or time, and that brings friction. Pluto is in early Aquarius. Taurus, Scorpio, and Aquarius are all fixed signs, and the Sun is early in Scorpio. So ask whether what you invest in heavily lines up with your goals. In a consumer society there’s always the dangle of “you must have this,” plus the time we trade to earn it, versus the basics we need in balance. Question what you truly need to feel full. That brings us to the body, the most valuable Taurean possession and the vessel that carries us through life. I haven’t always valued mine the way I do now. Today, be grateful for yours and give it really good care over the next couple of days. It’s longing for that. The Taurus moon says: celebrate your physical time on earth, maximize your ability to enjoy it, and remember it’s temporary, which is why it’s so valuable. Value the day, the earth, the people you love, and the animals you love. By evening, tempers may be short. If you were overstretched on a day that called for a good meal and the comfort of home, you may feel frayed, or be around someone who does. Center, calm down, and focus on taking care rather than unraveling. TUESDAY, OCT 27: TAURUS VOID MOON, with GEMINI AT NIGHT Prioritize what needs to be done, and above all your self-care, so you don’t stretch yourself too thin. Venus and Mercury are retrograde, and the Taurus moon doesn’t like to be rushed. Tangents distract: go here, great opportunity, do that. Narrow it down to what’s most advantageous, where you can take your time, savor, and maximize what you put in energetically or financially. The moon goes void at 10:51 a.m. and stays void until it enters Gemini at 9:02 p.m. A void Taurus moon asks us to be methodical, one foot in front of the other, and aware of the body. Martial arts, yoga, Pilates, and dance all teach presence in the body; if you’re too much in your head, you lose it. Smell the roses, but depending on where you live, that only happens if they’re cut and in a vase. During a void moon, work on what’s already in motion, clear your desk, and start nothing new. With Taurus, this can be a highly productive day for plowing through a project already underway, with tenacious focus and a patience you usually don’t have. WEDNESDAY, OCT 28: GEMINI MOON, PRE-DAWN FIREWORKS This Gemini moon is sweet and well-aspected for crossing things off your list. We’re in the waning moon for a couple of weeks, so finish things up, even with Mercury and Venus retrograde. Pre-dawn Eastern, there are pictures in the sky with Pluto, a Venus-Chiron opposition, and the moon conjunct Uranus. That’s a strong force for transformation: something has to shift. Many of us will feel it in the dreamscape, waking suddenly with a sense of “this has to happen.” If it’s unformed, use the Gemini moon to gather information before you act or reach out. Mercury retrograde also makes this a fabulous time to research and go over documents and notes, looking for what fell through the cracks. Sometimes we hear the words but our heads are on something said five minutes earlier. This could be a negotiation, a contract, a medical or financial situation, or a work problem. Ask: did I miss something because I reacted a certain way, or because an old grievance came up? That’s how we get to strength and understanding. For anything raw, reflect rather than have direct conversations, which may or may not be appropriate. THURSDAY, OCT 29: INNOVATIVE AFTERNOON, PLAYFUL EVENING The afternoon is good for innovative thought. When I’m problem-solving, I often know what I want but can’t get the whole solution. Intuitive people and air-sign thinkers, with so much buzzing around, benefit from space. Do some automatic writing, or walk and set the worry down. Make observations and have conversations unrelated to the problem. It might be a chat, a movie, a museum, a billboard, and suddenly: that’s the answer. Even if it’s indirect, things gel. Double-check how it fits, then make the magic happen. The moon goes void at 5:43 p.m. and enters Cancer at 10:06 p.m. Have as much fun as you like: shoot hoops, bike, walk, visit friends. I wouldn’t concretize anything. A void Gemini moon is a butterfly that lands here and there, but with no nectar available, it’s off again. Fun and stimulating, nothing to invest in. FRIDAY, OCT 30: CANCER MOON, UPHILL Not the easiest day. Cancer is sensitive, and as a cardinal sign it does what it wants. If the tide’s going out and people wanted to go in, the tide is still going out. Information is scattered, and you may not get answers or be able to give them. The friction ebbs by mid-afternoon. Some of us may feel people aren’t showing up. That’s disappointing, but it can lead to resolution: if they aren’t showing up, make modifications. SATURDAY, OCT 31: HALLOWEEN / SAMHAIN This day is more directed once we’ve accepted what didn’t pan out, like a party falling through or a costume not coming together. Look at how you get your needs met, and be gracious with what satisfies them. The moon goes void at 6 p.m. and stays void through the evening. Many of us will choose home or a quieter party, because a void Cancer moon says, “I want to be with my people, my things.” Or you can be in the middle of the Halloween parade in New York and still feel you’re with your people. Give yourself that pod. Once past the void, the tension ebbs and floats. Be somewhere nested and secure. SUNDAY, NOV 1: MOON IN LEO We can tap ancestral connection and spirit knowledge 365 days a year, but this is a holy, sacred time in many cultures, and when we make space, it expands. The moon enters Leo at 12:18 a.m. It’s a rich, beautiful day. The moon opposes Pluto pre-dawn, so once again: power-charged dream time. As the day unfolds, make the day yours.
