Your October 2026 Horoscope for Sagittarius
by Susan MillerHere’s what’s going to happen: On November 16, Mars in Leo will catch up with Jupiter (also in Leo) and form a powerful conjunction. Both will meet in your solar ninth house—pointing to all the topics I explained above.
While it is true that Jupiter and Mars meet every two years, they rarely meet in the sign of Leo. In fact, they’ve only met four times in Leo in the last 100 years—and that’s if you count this upcoming date, November 16. This is an outstanding conjunction, and one that could bring you thrilling results, so plan your action to coincide with Monday, November 16 (there is a plus three days associated with this day). You have plenty of time to prepare.
Now let’s focus on October.
Venus will begin to retrograde on October 3, and she will turn direct on November 13. Venus goes retrograde every 18 months for 40-43 days, and this time the retrograde will last for 42 days. Venus will start her backward slide in Scorpio, and on October 25 she will move backward into Libra. Venus will remain in Libra for the rest of her retrograde, until November 13.
With Venus “on vacation,” she won’t be able to help you in the areas she rules: beauty, fun, romance, and luxury. Venus has some links to money, too. If you are single, someone from your past may come back into your life, and it could be a friend who you will be glad to see, or possibly an old flame. Concerning your former love, see how you feel about a reconciliation. Remember, there was a reason you broke up, but if you still love this person, see if you can make it work.
