Pisces October 2026

How do you make time for self-care?

I must tell you, Pluto going direct October 15 is a volatile one. People will be freaking out all over the place. And here’s Pisces at its finest: your ability to create a miracle out of a tragedy.

So, when those you’ve counted on start losing it: rather than rushing in like a Red Cross nurse, and getting your self-worth bruised in the process – and feeling, what a bummer —

Stay detached. Cool, calm, and collected. Act as an “objective” therapist.

Trust in your own experience. Mutual undertakings go beyond your wildest dreams. Just make sure they benefit YOU.

As far down the road as you can see…

Pisces Anais Nin, double Pisces, born February 21, 1903, wrote:

“Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.”

Did you know: Even friends from your past who went over your limit are rooting for you now?

Like the two fish, you are torn – and swimming – in two opposite directions. One half of you is mature enough to forgive and be able to deal with this relationship. And the other half of you cannot be rational at all.

So there you have it. But this dilemma, also, is solved after October 10 comes along. New Libra Moon. Challenging though it is.

You have a small window of healing a past relationship. And as I know I have urged you before, I urge you now again: to heal it. As best you can.

Pisces Alexander Graham Bell (born March 3, 1847) invented the telephone. Both his mother and his wife were completely deaf. Again, here is Pisces at its finest: the ability to create a miracle out of a tragedy.

Bell wrote: When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one that has opened for us.

Your ruler Neptune is the ruler of miracles – and these come from deep inside the unconscious, in an inspirational area. All it takes is you seeing.

Some relationships were meant to survive into your future, and some not. Use your natural psychic intuition to intuit which were, and which were not.

Take it slow, dear Pisces, and don’t rush into anything you might regret.

Remember, you are a brave, but even more than that, a very sensitive fish!

As hurt and bruised as you have been – and the past couple of years have been particularly challenging, especially when it comes to your work and career – you are still an idealist.

And you will ALWAYS be an idealist.

So, if you are thinking now of taking on something that isn’t true to the very truth of you – it’s just not going to work.

October 3, Venus retrogrades until November 13, and your spiritual outreach is called into question. Venus retrogrades in your travel and exploration zone until November 13. Your connection with other people’s money is changing and very different by November 13. Pared down – and frankly, less fraught. You may be thinking of new ways of handling joint funds. And also of making money from an old talent, since neglected.

Every 8 years, Venus goes back to the same area of your chart, so each Venus retrograde is a repeat of the Venus retrograde that happened 8 years ago, 16 years ago, and so on.

Think back to the period between October and November 2018. What was going on then? Therein lies your clue. Nancy Drew!

In your career, examine your motives for wishing to take a professional risk this October. I would say it’s all about timing – and you should wait until after mid-month, because this is when you absolutely WOW them at work. Even the naysayers.

Everyone seems to want to talk to you about money.

You’re entering a magical time this October, and you benefit most if you employ the qualities of your eighth house – because this is where you’re blessed. In here you have:

The awesome, life-giving Sun

Brilliant thought planet Mercury

A challenging new Libra Moon Saturday, October 10

And your eighth house, traditionally ruled by psychic astute Scorpio, covers these areas of your life:

Shared resources and monies

Inheritances

All financial settlements and agreements

Taxes. This includes taxes and monies with your honey and your family.

Merging with another – sex, sex, sex!

Intimacy

Sharing your deepest truths

Letting go of the past

Shedding an old persona: embracing the new

Clearing out dated clothes, remnants of a past self

Healing

Regenerating

Recovering your unconscious

Summoning your psychic powers

If you feel you’re not up to any of these, we must get you to where you feel you are so you can take benefit of them.

Now is actually a great time for self-examination, soul searching, creative development and personal redefinition. You’re likely to find yourself busied with catering to the wants and needs of others.

Take it slow, dear Pisces, and don’t rush into anything you might regret. This is your chance to change all that! To heal past mistakes, and not to repeat them.

Positively, this Venus retrograde offers an ideal time for soul searching and for inner exploration; seek counseling or other advice if you need it. This retrograde also brings a willingness to give a relationship another try. I wish you would.
