October gets off to a mild start with a White Circle Day on the 1st, but the honeymoon is over quickly when those extra-long Voids of Courses start to hit as early as the 3rd, dotting the whole first week. Again, this is why the Gray Box turned into the Outline Box that frames the Date because we wanted to make sure they weren’t misread to ensure that those long VOCs don’t trip you up. The only planet that changes sign this month is Venus Retrograding into Libra. 
* 1st: We have a White Circle with the Sun trine the Gemini Moon, and supportive Lunar Aspects to Saturn and Jupiter. This trine after the Full Moon is a great time to move projects along when you need cooperation from others with resources and skills. 
* 3rd: Venus turns Retrograde at 8 degrees Scorpio, the Sign of the Eagle, on a hard working day. See where this is in your chart because you will be revisiting those social connections. Retrograde Venus turns our love inward, so it’s a good time to give yourself credit for all the good you do. That day long Void of Course Moon in the Sign of the Crab is a good time for home focused errands and tasks. Make a list! 

What is Reclaiming Astrology from the Patriarchy ?

This is all about practicing Astrology in a balanced way. It is based on the book of the same name by the Astrologers Ralph & Lahni DeAmicis. In the book they tell the story of the Great Rebranding that created the patriarchy, by changing the twelve Signs of the Zodiac to uplift men and put down women. The shows include their weekly forecasts from the Planetary Calendar, which they author, astrology portraits, commentary and interviews.
