Your October 2026 Horoscope for Virgo
by Susan MillerDuring the full moon of October 26, Pluto in Aquarius will be in a hard square angle to the Sun in Scorpio (in your contractual house, also ruling writing, speaking, negotiation, and other communication arts, as well as travel). Simultaneously, Pluto will also be in a hard square angle to the moon in your ninth house (outlined above), a house that also rules travel.
Pluto is based in your daily work sector (sixth house), so your workload may be heavy, and your client, or management, may put strong pressure on you to perform, so you might not feel like traveling (it looks like any trip you take will be for business). Alternatively, a health matter, such as a cold, might force you to think twice about leaving town.
You will have to see how you feel about what is going on. With two personal planets retrograde (Mercury, your ruler, and Venus, the ruler of this full moon), you may find that the work on your desk is time-consuming, and negotiating with a client to reach a final agreement could prove difficult. If you’re at an impasse, suggest that you both take a break and reunite after November 13 when those planets will be moving direct.
The end of the month brings Halloween on Saturday, October 31. Virgo is known to have impressive finger dexterity, and they often love making things with their hands. If this sounds like you, you might put that talent to good use by designing and making your own Halloween costume, or one for a child.
I remember my mother making all my Halloween costumes, and they were so much better than the ones you could buy. She poured such love and enthusiasm into making them. I continued the tradition and made my children’s Halloween costumes—it was fun, and I always started early.
