Your week starts off a little rocky but wraps up with supportive energy in your horoscope for October 27 to November 2, 2024. Venus, the planet of relationships, rams into Saturn in Pisces on October 28, delivering disappointments and setbacks in some of your closet connections. You may feel like your needs aren’t being heard or met—and you may even decide to call it quits. This can be an important time to discuss boundaries and have uncomfortable conversations you’ve avoided. Contracts and projects are also subject to delays or a “no” when you were hoping for a definite “yes.”

On October 28, Mars in Cancer mingles with Neptune in Pisces and, despite the challenging vibes, encourages you to work toward your dreams. (Action-planet Mars helps you stay motivated.) This can be good energy for processing some of your feelings since these two planets are joining together in water signs. Some emotional, sexy encounters or make-up sex with lots of eye contact and affectionate talk may be on the table. You’re also feeling shocked by new information when Mercury in Scorpio faces off with Uranus in Taurus on the same day. This brings you back to any surprises that unfolded on October 14, when Venus stared down Uranus in the sky. On the bright side, this can deliver some innovative ideas and help you solve problems.

Halloween gets a little spookier, and your chances of seeing a ghost are higher when Mercury in Scorpio connects with Neptune in Pisces on October 31. This bodes well for compassionate and healing conversations, connecting with your intuition, and thinking outside the box.

There’s also a new moon in Scorpio on November 1 that helps you reclaim your power through the art of surrender. Remember: there’s no use forcing a square into a circular hole! Trust in divine timing and although the unknown can be intimidating, your glow-up and transformation are in full swing.

Also on November 1, Jupiter retrograde in Gemini syncs up with Chiron in Aries, bringing you back to October 12, the last time these two celestial bodies met in the sky. This may push you to reflect on your healing journey and reconsider your belief system. Stepping into someone else’s shoes might bring healing, inspiration, and expansion. Mercury in Scorpio mingles with both Mars in Cancer and Pluto in Capricorn on the same day, helping you dive deep emotionally and stay on track with your goals. Conversations with others can also impact your mindset and leave you feeling empowered.

The week wraps up on November 2 with Mercury entering Sagittarius later in the day. When Mercury moves through Sagittarius, people are more outspoken and dogmatic than normal. Don’t be surprised if you get in a few debates over the next few weeks, but this can be an inspiring time to return to school or soak up adventurous experiences.
