Your October 2026 Horoscope for Sagittarius
by Susan MillerVenus retrograde is not a time for single Sagittarians to meet a completely new romantic interest. Venus supplies warmth and affection, and if Venus is retrograde during your first meeting, affection could cool off quickly. Are you already married? Attached Sagittarians will not be affected by this trend, as you’ve already met and committed to your sweetheart.
If you are not married but dating someone seriously, this is a good time to examine your feelings. Is this person the one for you, now and forever? If your feelings are waffling back and forth, don’t make any decisions just yet. Wait until after Venus goes direct on November 13, and you will be more confident and sure about how you feel about your partner.
Since Venus has dominion over your looks, this is not the time to schedule Botox, fillers, or a facelift, nor is it the time to change the cut or color of your hair in a dramatic way (regular trims and touch-ups are fine).
Do not throw a large, expensive party or buy valuable jewelry during Venus retrograde either, for Venus rules both. Wait until after November 13 for best results.
On the same day that Venus starts her retrograde, October 3, Mars in Leo will oppose Pluto in Aquarius, a forceful, possibly anger-provoking aspect. Pluto and Mars are both in different travel sectors, the third house for Pluto and the ninth house for Mars. This is a signal that this might not be the best time to travel.
