Awareness through Astrology

Cosmic Insights – October 26, 2026 October 25, 2026

by Veronica G. Hartman

The celestial week of October 26, 2026 begins with the Sun rising in secretive, powerful Scorpio, highlighting an opportunity to affirm an intention regarding the path of enlightenment by shining a light that brings understanding of things on a spiritual level.

Scorpio has two planetary rulers, Mars on a daily basis and Pluto on a transcendental level. Mars is currently in majestic Leo, shining a light on a heart filled with the warmth and renewal of love, with a flood of joy-rooted emotions. However, Pluto, the transformational ruler of Scorpio, is challenged by the Sun in Scorpio to walk the true path of love with the courage to communicate feelings that could change their life with power.

The key is to align one’s self-values with truth and the power of authenticity to walk the talk, to achieve mental, physical, or emotional well-being and peace. The caveat is that Mercury has just begun to retrograde in Scorpio to review actions relative to unfulfilled desires that have yet to materialize because of delays caused by Venus retrograde previously in Scorpio. Thus, the peeling of relationship values begins to unfold with the raw truth of communication.

However, Venus has just shifted gears back into Libra before the Sun rose to examine the quality of powerful connections that mirror self-values with transformational clarity. Venus also moved from the evening star position to the morning star as it rises just before the Sun. Venus as the evening star is deliberate, receptive, and relationally focused energy centered on maturity and integration, and when the shift occurs to the morning star, the energy encourages courage, strategy, and decisive action.

Venus also recently united with the Sun in Scorpio at 1 degree for its last cycle of being a star point since 1930. The natural cycle of Venus repeats every eight years, forming a five-point star of destiny on how to handle vibratory force by utilizing it to support our growing consciousness that knowledge and intellect evolve into intuition and wisdom to produce a gradual change from the material nature to the Spiritual.

Thus, the next eight years are the last opportunity to transform the values of fear into trust through courage, betrayal into loyalty through strength, and the depth of connections that can hold truth to be expressed through the quality of peace, harmony, and love when the star points to Libra in 2034. However, there is a power to step into the depths of the emotional subconscious of Scorpio for an awakening of how relationships mirror what is hidden in the soul. Therefore, if one dares to look deeply within at the projections and judgments of others as a revelation of what is within, it can be healed and transformed “inside themselves” during the next few weeks.

Meanwhile, the Moon is offering stability and emotional peace as it resides in gentle Taurus with a soothing balm to offset the intensity of the recent full moon in Taurus/Scorpio regarding unpredictable changes in relationships. The Moon in Taurus reflects the value of peace, love, and stability of relating to illuminate the balance required to build a foundation of trust, loyalty, and power in relationships that cannot be thrown off course by the unpredictable life changes of Pluto in Aquarius during the next 20 years.

On the evening of October 27th, the Moon flies into breezy Gemini with information gathered behind the scenes that has been hidden regarding daily work routines, joint finances, and/or contract negotiations that have recently been put on hold. The key is to investigate the source of the information and verify its accuracy before making decisions to take actions that could be costly and hard to reverse until the summer of 2027. Other than this emotional/informational hiccup, the next couple of days may feel like an emotional breath of fresh air as the Moon in Gemini interacts favorably with the rest of the planets.

In the early hours of October 28th, Venus in Libra opposes Chiron retrograde in Aries, illuminating whether the scales of relating are balanced with self-love, or the desire to be loved projected onto partners without addressing the subconscious wounds of self-abandonment.

On the evening of October 29th, the Moon sinks into the emotional, vulnerable pond of Cancer, stirring up unconscious emotions related to childhood and family dynamics that unknowingly shaped emotional insecurities, with an opportunity to release and let them go. The Moon in Cancer is very sensitive, and in a challenging position with Neptune retrograde in Aries, so abrupt criticism or actions may trigger an unexpected backlash of emotional withdrawal. The Moon in Cancer is also in an awkward position with Pluto in Aquarius; thus, emotional detachment over vulnerable feelings could prompt an attitude adjustment that seems to come out of the blue.

Shortly after lunch on October 30th, Mercury retrograde in Scorpio challenges Jupiter in Leo about hidden information revealed regarding career concerns, contracts, and power plays around financial resources, investments, and control issues over inflated financial projections or out-of-control spending. This is highly significant now, as Mars will go retrograde in Virgo in 2027, impacting the Mercury retrograde cycles in the first six months that may feel like they are on steroids!
