Sun into Scorpio: Moon into Scorpio: Full Moon in Taurus October 2026

Friday October 23 2026, is a fairly busy day…. 

First up is the majestic Sun moving into the watery sign of Scorpio..

Scorpio is the most intense of all the signs… She is tenacious when it comes to researching something important to her… She can be secretive, but seems to have a magical way of “pulling” secrets from others… The negative of being such an intensely emotional human, is the dark side of emotions, such as jealousy, or being pulled towards dangerous relationships and/or dangerous situations… Scorpio and Taurus are the signs most likely affected. 

Please Click Here to see our past post on The Sun in Scorpio: 

Next we see the Moon shifting into the sign of Aries. The Moon is connected to our emotions, Aries is Fire Sign. The Sun has just moved into a very sensitive Sign. Emotions may get heated, misunderstanding may occur, best to take a deep breath and walk away, it’s not the best time to force emotional or “heavy” issues. On the up side, we could have more energy then usual, and a sort of inner prompting to get things done and organized… It’s an action orientated moon… Aries and Libra are the signs most likely affected.

Following, we see Mercury doing his usual Retrograde motion on Saturday, October 24 2026 @3:13 am (ET) @12:13 am (PT). When Mercury goes retrograde, expect to have to re-do, re-send, repeat…. It’s a good opportunity to correct mistakes, but it can get frustrating when communication doesn’t go as planned… Keep calm and carry on as best you can…. Double check appointment dates, and check emails before sending them. This retrograde motion takes place in the sign of Scorpio… (the Sun is also in Scorpio). Scorpio is connected to 8th house life situations/issue’s… These include such things as mortgages, banking, shared money matter’s… Shared legal matter’s…It is advisable to double check all legal or financial dealings, ask questions… Scorpio and Taurus are the signs most likely affected. 

Please Click Here to see our past post on Mercury Retrograde. Please note, this is an older post. Presently, Mercury entered it’s storm October 18th, goes Retrograde on the 24th, until November 13, where he goes back into storm, until finally turning direct on the 18th. 

By the Sunday, October, 25th we see Venus entering the sign of Libra @5:10 am(ET) @2:10 am(PT). Venus rules Libra, so she is super comfy in this spot… Anything Venus related should move along smoothly, if changes do occur, it’s because they are “written in the stars) for you, and there isn’t any you can change things… This may concern relationship or partnership situations… While changes may occur, becoming closer in relationships/partnerships may also occur… When it comes to getting deeply invested in new romantic relationships, it might be best to hold back for a few days after the full moon has passed.. Venus loves money, she likes to spend it… She probably likes to make it also, especially if it’s got anything to do with re-decorating, designing, beauty, money… Take care with the budget, a care free attitude is fabulous, especially during these challenging times… however, it would be smart to check the budget before getting too carried away. Libra and Aries are the signs most likely affected. 

Please Click Here to see our past post on Venus in Libra: (Please scroll down towards the bottom)

Late afternoon on Sunday, the 25th, The Moon makes her move into the sign of Taurus. Things might begin to slow down a bit now, we can be more patient, perhaps a little more understanding… Our energy levels may decrease… and we might prefer to cuddle up on the couch, eating bon bon’s and drinking wine/beer/tea/coffee.. We are geared towards comfort now, slowing down to “smell the roses”.. which is perfect to re-set our emotional “chips” after the whirl wind sensitive, Aries Moon/Scorpio Sun. Trouble is, things aren’t going to move along as quickly as we might like when it comes to replies, finding out test results, job interview decisions… (Mercury is also retrograde now). Security of self, possessions and finances are super important for the next few days… As this sign shift occurs close to the Full Moon, possible solutions bringing about endings and conclusions may be available.. closure is possible now. Taurus and Scorpio are the signs most likely affected

Please Click Here to see our past post on Moon in Taurus. All Taurus traits will be amplified during a Full Moon. 

This Full Moon, also called Hunter’s Moon because it appears to be closer to the earth, creating a bright light, which in the days of old would have illuminated the fields after harvest, making hunting easier. (If it’s not cloudy of course 😊). occurs on Sunday, October 25 2026, @9:12 pm (PT). On Monday, October 26 2026, @12: 12 am (ET). In the sign of Taurus. Taurus is also ruled by Venus, Giving us a double Venus influence. The Full Moon as you look it, is a perfect round shape, it’s FULL… and traditionally, this was looked at as representing completion. It is the perfect time to finish up tasks, to clear the fields, to tidy away the mess, by eliminating what is no longer working or needed, and especially that which is causing heartache and stress over health and happiness. Taurus, Cancer, maybe Capricorn and Scorpio are the signs most likely affected. Take note though, that the Full Moon affects all of us on some level. If your sleep is affected, or you feel more bloated then usual, it is likely the Full Moon energy…

The Moon and Astrology

HOW IT AFFECTS OUR DAILY LIVES… 

In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. :) 

The Moon Void-off-Course: 

There are times throughout the month when the moon isn’t fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void off Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void off Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-off-Course moon… 

Good for Void-Off-Course Moon:

These v/c signs may prove to be quite productive times.

  • Cancer
  • Taurus
  • Sagittarius
  • Pisces…

Opportunity Periods

There are other periods throughout the month that are known as opportunity periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods.

Notes:

Saturday March 29:

Mercury enters Pisces. This isn’t the best placement for Mercury, he doesn’t feel 100% himself, so he might not always be up the task. He is also in retrograde motion during this time. Mercury is connected to technology, transportation and communications. Expect messages to get mislaid or sent to the wrong address, communications to get misunderstood, and perhaps a few hic-ups with the car, the cell phone, lap top or other techno thing.

When Mercury is in Pisces, we may not be able to quite grasp the logic of the situation, it is easy for us to see things in “colour”, our imagination is alive and well and we can express ourselves easier, what ever our chosen method of communication. However, for some of us, frustrations may arise with our loved ones and/or work college’s may drift of from the subject being discussed, causing us to constantly re-direct the conversation.

Saturday March 29 @6:58 am(ET) @3:58 am(PT).

Solar Eclipse, New Moon 9 degrees Aries.

The Sun is also in Aries now, and this is a good position for the “warrior”. The new moon is the perfect time to begin new projects, jobs, relationships, enterprizes, studies, just about anything you need. The Aries New Moon is slightly more powerful than other signs… Because Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac, he is the beginning, he is connected to the 1st house of self… Anything that empowers us as an individual will be in focus now, making this a good time to focus on the things that we need to do for ourselves, to help propel us forward towards our goals… or to help us get back on track after being thrown off, (life has a way of doing that sometimes)… What ever it is you need to push youself forward, prop yourself up or assert your needs will be easier to do during this time… We can feel braver and better equipped to try something new, or protect others.

The Solare eclipse highlites our emotional self, the energy of the solar eclipse may last up to 6 months.. This Solar New Moon Eclispe, will have a great affect on the following: Aries, Libra, Capricorn and Cancer (4 to 14 degrees).

Sunday, March 30:

Neptune enters the sign of Aries.

  • Neptune rules Pisces, he is imagination, compassion, sensitive, psychic and nostaligic. Aries can be impatient, insensitive and may find it difficult to unravel the imagination. The traits have equal “power” but niether one can out do the other… However, Aries can push us out of our “wonderland” into action, so don’t while away our days in dream land, and Neptune can pull us back and teach us to be compassionate and patient… If things are meant to happen they will, in good time….

Sunday March 30:

We wish all who celebrate Eid Al-Fitr happy celebrations.
