Your October 2026 Horoscope for Libra
by Susan MillerDo not schedule any dermatological treatments or cosmetic dentistry when Venus is retrograde, and don’t make any radical changes to your looks or try a new hairstyle.
With Mercury retrograde, do your best to avoid signing contracts, otherwise you may regret your decision later. Also, put off buying electronic items or machines, for Mercury rules both electronic chips and moving gears. That means the car you need should be purchased in late November or early December. (Don’t run up too close to the start or end dates of Mercury retrograde, for those are the very worst dates of the entire retrograde, as counterintuitive as that may sound.) If you decide to shop for that car or any other electronic item in October, do so in the first week.
During the full moon on October 26 in Taurus (3º) you will be paying a major bill. Pluto will be insistent that you pay by a certain deadline, most likely by the end of the month. You have known about this financial obligation coming up, and you may be ready for it. Even so, it might not be that easy to pay, but it appears you will find a way. This would not be a good time to ask for money from a bank, a venture capitalist, your ex, or even your family—save that request for next month. If you are interviewing for a new job, see if you can slow down the process so that you don’t have to discuss money until the days that follow November 13.
Now let’s switch to another topic. Mars will be touring your friendship sector all month (Mars entered Leo and your eleventh house on September 27 and will stay until November 25). This ensures that you will have fun socializing with friends this month. As a Libra, your need to be with people is like the rest of us need oxygen—you showed this to be true at a very young age, and you never changed. (As a small child, your mother probably had to keep a separate calendar for you to keep track of all your play dates!)
