Uranus Enters Gemini: The Massive Change Begins This Week

Last week was all about love. This week is asking you how committed you are. Venus is still retrograde in Scorpio, but now the heavyweights are joining in: Pluto ends its retrograde on October 16, the same day Mars trines Saturn, and the First Quarter Moon in Capricorn arrives on October 18. In this episode Pluto turning direct on October 16 at 3 degrees of Aquarius, and why a clear out is coming in one area of your life Why Pluto is a psychological planet, and what throwing out the dead wood looks like in real life Mars in Leo trine Saturn in Aries: the best astrological news of the week, bringing stamina, sticking power and courage with a plan Venus retrograde in Scorpio square Pluto on October 20: old jealousies, old power dynamics, old money wounds, and a second chance to get it right The First Quarter Moon in Capricorn and the tension between love and work A look ahead to next week, when Mercury goes retrograde in Scorpio Key takeaways Pluto going direct is a green light on the inner work you've been quietly doing all year. Now is when you start to have something to show for it. Pick one goal and give it a really consistent effort this week. That's how Mars and Saturn like it. If you've made a mistake in the not so distant past, this is a good week to own it. Ask yourself: Where am I giving my power away in relationships? Where am I trying to control someone? What am I clinging to that needs to go? At the Quarter Moon, whatever you want usually needs a balance of action and faith.

Love is getting complicated this week, and the stars can't hide it. Venus is retrograde in Scorpio, she squares Mars in Leo on October 10, and on the very same day we get the New Moon in Libra. Add the Sun in Libra sextile lucky Jupiter, and it's a week of mixed signals, second chances and a real invitation to balance the old and the new, in love and in money. In this episode Why Venus retrograde in Scorpio is love at its most intense, and why old feelings, old flames and old money matters are coming back Venus retrograde and self-worth: what are you really worth, and how have you done since the last Venus retrograde 18 months ago? Venus square Mars in Leo on October 10: desire, pride, and why nobody wants to be the first to back down The Sun in Libra sextile Jupiter in Leo, the best news of the week The New Moon in Libra at 17 degrees: times, keywords and why some of your wishes might involve going back Manifesting: are you living in line with what you say you want to manifest? Your questions: what not to do under Venus retrograde, which signs are feeling it most, and the benefits of this rare cycle Key takeaways Before you get into an argument, ask yourself: is this about what happened, or about how it made me feel? Make your New Moon wishes right after the New Moon: LA 8:50am October 10, New York 11:50am October 10, London 4:50pm October 10, Sydney 2:50am October 11. Avoid massive appearance changes and luxury splurges under Venus retrograde. Going back to the hairdresser who did a great job is fine. Don't go back to an ex just because you're lonely. Go back if something has genuinely changed. Use this rare cycle for a self-worth audit and a money review.

This week starts off tough, gets even tougher, and then, hopefully, ends quite well.

Venus retrograde is coming, and in this week's episode Yasmin explains what it actually means. Venus is the planet of love, money, beauty, pleasure and self-worth, and roughly every 18 months she appears to go backwards through the sky. This time she turns retrograde in Scorpio in early October before moving back into Libra, the same two signs she retrograded in back in October and November 2018. In this episode: What Venus retrograde is, and why "reevaluate" is the key word for it Why old loves (and old friends) tend to come back when Venus goes backwards, including the story of a man who turned up at Yasmin's door asking how to win back his ex Why it's wise to hold off on big, expensive purchases chosen for their looks The Venus star, and why it's worth scrolling your photos back to October and November 2018 Why this won't be a replay of 2018: Pluto, Jupiter, Uranus, Saturn and Neptune have all changed signs since then This week's astrology: the Sun opposite Neptune, the Sun trine Pluto and the Sun trine Uranus on the 28th Key takeaways: Ask yourself: How much is this worth to me? Am I giving more than I'm getting? Is there a balance? Don't fear retrogrades. Venus wants harmony, and her retrograde is often about second chances. This affects everyone, not just Libras and Scorpios. Your Rising sign shows which area of your life is up for review. Be careful with big-ticket aesthetic purchases while Venus is retrograde. Your taste might be a little off. Journal on the Scorpio questions: What do I really, really want? What am I frightened of losing? Where have love and power become entangled?
