Your weekly horoscope is here. Scorpio season, aka spooky season, peaks this week with its metaphysical symbols of decay, death, transformation, and regeneration. Northern cultures celebrate with ritual to mark this cross-quarter eve of the sun's descent toward the brittle winter. The halfway point between the Autumn equinox and the winter solstice, Halloween reminds us that the cooler months were once touch-and-go for people and animals less hardy. Representing the dying strength of the sun and vegetation at this time of year, remember your loved ones (yes, including furry friends), and acknowledge the spectral non-material layers of perception. Halloween falls on Friday, so ring in your ghoul gang, dress to slay in your spooktacular best, and enjoy the light side of the dark side of life. Crack out your best puns as Mercury heads into fun-loving Sagittarius midweek. And consider costuming as an iconic power couple since Venus (aesthetics) is traveling behind the sun, still in relationship-oriented Libra.
Read on to discover what’s in store for your sign during the week of October 26 through November 1, 2025.
Aries (March 21–April 19)
Mercury is the planet of comms and, in ancient myth, had a penchant for getting into mischief. This week, it moves into Sagittarius, the truth seeker, activating your sphere of international concerns, philosophy, and big picture vistas. What winding paths of hot topics are you drawn to right now? Consider your response to hot-button conversations, as this influence suggests foot in mouth syndrome. Instead, solve a problem, puzzle, or conundrum. Plan travel, study, or brainstorm your options to get them clear and build out from your current position. This is an optimistic influence, lending flair to how you express yourself. Take a positive approach, and you’re more likely to come up with solutions that surprise you. Your sphere of shared resources is in focus this season, so consider a costume collab. Team up; combos are amusing and have more impact, so if you’ve got it, haunt it.
Taurus (April 20–May 20)
The mists of spooky season waft through your sphere of one-to-one partnership, so find the Romeo to your Ghouliette and team up for the Halloween celebrations. A well-themed romantic dinner for two before joining friends for a party? Pumpkin spice latte with bestie over the weekend to catch up and celebrate your connection? How about reflecting on relationships past and considering what you could well and truly lay to rest if you’ve been keeping a little bit of love on life support. We all know you don’t like to let go, but do it with love and gratitude in your heart, and you will both feel more free with space for Mr/Ms tall, dark, and gorgeously ghoulish. Take an adventurous approach to deep and meaningful conversation. Seek the truth within your own psyche and motivations, or get to know someone special in a way that drops down beneath the everyday superficial surface.
Gemini (May 21–June 21)
Mercury heads into your opposite sign midweek, activating all things comms in your zone of one-to-ones. You share the communication axis with big picture Sagittarius, so roam long, winding, and uplifting conversational paths. Have the big conversations, yes, about what your shared vision is. Philosophical chats with your bestie over a pumpkin spice latte? Yes, broaden the concept around what’s possible on a topic or in your relationships. This is an intellectually stimulating month, so be open to friendly challenge on a variety of topics. Since Mercury will retrograde later in this cycle, don’t say ‘I do’ or sign on a dotted line if you can help it. More information tends to come to light over retrogrades, so read the fine print if you can’t postpone. Spooky season activates your sphere of fitness, work, routine, and pets, so send some fond thoughts to those fluffy, dearly departed animal friends. Consider a ‘death by ’80s aerobics' costume theme, and as always, twin up!
Cancer (June 22–July 22)
Spooky season looks good on you since it’s hosted by sister water sign Scorpio. Sharing the element of water means emotional awareness, connection, and hyper focus on your nearest and dearest, so spend quality time and consider a family Halloween this year. Your sphere of leisure, self-expression, fun, and dating is lit, so even more reason to make this occasion one to celebrate. We never regret spending time and putting effort into events. But we do regret not doing that, so go with it, whether blood is thicker than water or your chosen family is the one that is there for you through thick and thin. Mercury, planet of comms, is all about your work and wellness sphere from Wednesday. Even more reason to have fun with Halloween puns, keep it light and bright, and lean into an optimistic mindset. If you have a grand vision for a project or pivot, brainstorm under this influence. Think big, dear Cancer, then do your due diligence.
Leo (July 23–August 22)
It’s the spookiest party of the year this Friday, and you don’t need to be home alone—call up ghoul friends and family and organize an event or night out. There’s still time to pull a costume together or go that extra mile on an existing one. Since this is your domestic sphere that is highlighted over this season, there’s even more reason to deck your halls with ghosts of lovers past and host at home. Mercury is the planet of communication, and this week it switches signs, landing in sister fire sign, Sagittarius. In your sphere of dating, leisure, and expression, this is a super creative and joyous time. Take a sabbatical for your mind, open it up to new ideas, and go see comedy. You’re the performer of the zodiac, try your hand at telling the jokes, you’re bound to get some laughs and entertain. This could be the start of a new era in you doing you, and everyone LOVING it.
Virgo (August 23–September 22)
Ok, so your trick-or-treating days may be a little behind you now, but Halloween is still a fun occasion to get together with your scream team. Activating your social sphere of local one-to-ones, Halloween is a chance to connect with people in your vicinity through fun ghoulish puns, treating the little tricksters that come by for candy, etc. Why not host friends or head out? It’s on Friday, perfect. Keep it close to home, and you may just make a few new contacts while everyone is having a blast in their ghoulish or sexy alter egos. If there’s a hatchet you could bury, now would be the time. Let it go, dear Virgo. Your ruling planet, Mercury, is all about the mind and comms. Midweek, it makes a move into your domestic sphere. Bring your enquiring mind to explore familial connections, pass the talking stick, and hear everyone's point of view. If you live solo, invite friends for conversation that opens people's minds and perspectives. You’re challenged to explore and open up rather than dive into solutions or practical application straight away.
Libra (September 23–October 23)
This Halloween, remember you are drop-dead gorgeous, ruled by Venus, the Goddess of beauty, love, and harmony. Why not roll with and build on that theme for your spooky season celebrations? Even better, work in with bae or bestie for double the impact and go as an iconic duo. Find the Velma to your Daphne (Scooby Doo), the Gomez to your Morticia (The Addams Family), or the Madam Guillotine to your Marie Antoinette (actual historical woman and early implement of mass destruction) for this year's cross-quarter day festivities on Friday. While Venus is still in your sign, turn up the Venusian glamour, add sparkle, wit, and a ton of puns to your characters. Since the focus is on your sphere of income, be sure to get plenty of footage if you need content for your socials. Don’t go too overboard on spending, although if it’s an investment, well, work/life balance. Consolidate and RIP draining subscriptions to save your dollars. Your social and curiosity factor dials up from Wednesday, make connections.
Scorpio (October 24–November 21)
‘Tis the season to be spooky! Of course, Halloween (this Friday) is a concentration of all things Scorpionic; you are 100% that witch. The bats, the metaphysical magic, the sexy scream-alicious ghoul-squads. With your curiosity around mystery and the hidden, you’re like an archeologist of sexuality, psychology, and the metaphysical sides of life. If you have to dig, you’re in! Dip below the surface on that hot topic or cold case you’re oh-so curious about, before Mercury leaps from your research-oriented sign into high vibe Sagittarius. Ok, so you’d rather stick to the shadows most of the time, but this week it's worth planning a holiday costume or two and heading to a dress-up party or gathering. Why not host one of your own so you stay in control of proceedings and the dimmer switch on the lights? Take a positive attitude and a growth mindset to your financial sector from midweek. Look for opportunities and you’re more likely to find or create them. It’s time to grow that bottom line, birthday boo.
Sagittarius (November 22–December 21)
Mercury bolts into your sign on Wednesday, finally exiting on January 1, but be warned, it will retrograde back to Scorpio, so keep plans open and adjust as you go. Nothing in concrete if you can help it, for now. While Mercury's in Sagittarius, you possess the gift of self-expression so dial up your persuasive spin, and inspiring sermons on something you’re passionate about. Lift the spirits of others or open up concepts you think they'll benefit from if they’ve been stuck in a limited view or mindset. If you’re looking for change and adaptation, and let’s face it, as a sign built to flex, when aren’t you, then brainstorm over this period. If you’re going back to the drawing board and ready to begin a new project, direction, or even era, this is your time to cast your options wide and see what sticks. Halloween is all about the mystical for you, so dig deep into your fantasies and go with a mythological archetype, fantastical creature, or amusing ‘this goes with that’ concept.
Capricorn (December 22–January 19)
Get the Scream team together this Friday, your Halloween is all about being socially connected. Catch up, party hop, revel in ghoulish new contacts if you can manage it. Halloween is a fun event celebrating a serious topic. Death, decay, the spirit world of friends, family, and ancestors past. But it doesn’t have to be dreary or macabre. With tongue in cheek and to your audience's delight, you could learn and recite fellow Capricorn Edgar Allen Poe's iconic gothic poem, The Raven. “While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, as of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.” Capricorn knows that life can be a grind; the difference is that you relish shouldering responsibility and coming up trumps in the end. So the reality check this season offers is a breath of fresh scare to you, while others may find it a little grueling, or is that, ghouling ; ) Mercury activates your sphere of dreams, try an upbeat motto about expansion and positivity for the rest of the month, you’ll be delighted and surprised by the results.
Aquarius (January 20–February 18)
Mercury, Planet of comms and all things trickery, heads into your sphere of friendships and broader social connections from Wednesday. In perky Sagittarius, this is rather a raucous combo built for networking far and wide. Get your message out, adventure into circles that stimulate your mind and inspire you. Your professional and public sphere hosts Halloween, the jewel in Scorpio season's crown. What you do matters, how you present yourself, and what you say. With this in mind, it’s easier to lead an exemplary month. Think like a mentor, modeling how to do or be. With that in mind, what message will you send with your Halloween costuming, what you share publicly on social, or share with family and friends? This is a great opportunity to comment, have your say, or just raise the vibration through fun and festivity with your costuming of choice. Make the most of this social, festive occasion and share real talk with those you meet.
Pisces (February 19–March 20)
As Mercury activates your public-facing professional sphere from Wednesday, it’s time to talk your way to the top. Master the art of spin, spruik your wares, and update your copy. Think big picture, optimistically, and take leaps of faith. Talk yourself up, not down! Since Mercury will retrograde in this area, you’ll need to keep your ideas open to adaptation as you go. You’re still on the journey to rethinking something in this area, even if you don’t know it yet. Halloween has us all asking, are they just broom mates or something more? Well, if you’re going to team up, why not create a costumed couple that screams Iconic duo? Your sphere of higher education, exotic cultures, and travel is the focal point for this season, so take it as inspo for costume ideas. If you’re feeling shy and retiring, find a way to bring creativity in, go to a party anyway, or head out to people-watch to enjoy the effort others have put in. Be your own media company and share your experience. We’d all love to see your Halloween review and social snaps.
