Happy solar return, Scorpio! This month brings the start of your season, plus a big move from Pluto and another eclipse.

October kicks off with a big eclipse in Libra on October 2. Eclipse season is always full of necessary chaos, but chaos nonetheless. Thankfully, this solar eclipse at 10° Libra at the start of the month creates an opportunity to understand the whirlwind with a more level head.

The happy-go-lucky vibe of Venus in Sagittarius will be especially nice for your love life once Scorpio season starts on Oct. 22, as there’s nothing casual or lighthearted about this emotional water sign. Feelings are intensified now, which can be dramatic — but there’s a greater capacity for intimacy and vulnerability in relationships here, too.
