Clarify what success means to you
Career and reputation are central themes for you in October. The New Moon in Libra on 10 October encouraged new professional intentions, but retrograde Venus suggests reviewing your path before rushing ahead. An old work matter or a former colleague may resurface. Use this time to clarify what kind of success truly fulfils you.
Later in the month, your focus shifts to friendships, groups and future goals. Mercury retrograde from 24 October may bring miscommunication within groups or online, so double-check plans. The Full Moon in Taurus on 26 October lights up romance, creativity and joy.
✦ Redefine success, then let yourself enjoy it.
