Career, professional matters and dealings with authority are in focus as Sun, Venus and Mars move through Libra. However, Mercury in Scorpio may see you discuss or revise strategies in dealing with friends or associates and in the pursuit of hopes and wishes. You will come to a place where options will alter and you'll need to review your situation. However, this will kick in at the end of the month as Mercury turns retrograde.
Meantime, money features in discussion and there may be confusion or conflict over where or how it's being spent. There may be concern about the cost of something. Investment, credit or joint finances may be involved. A Full Moon in Aries on Oct 7th alters the focus as feeling in family or domestic life comes to the surface. A strong or fiery female will feature. You will need to restore the balance of attention in personal and professional life. Follow clear lines of action in the wake of this. Work to avoid further confusion with financial dealings. Make sure you and others know what can and can't be spent or committed. You may set limits to a project or venture.

Sun and Mars enter Scorpio on Oct 23rd, shifting the focus to friends, groups and group endeavour.

Count the Cost
Mercury spends the month in Scorpio, bringing illumination on where you're going through insight and communication. The cost of what you're doing may have to be counted first. Be careful, mid month.

Mercury begins to move in reverse on Oct 28th. Review your plans or goals insightfully. Listen to the advice of others. A friend may depart your circle or return unexpectedly.
