“As The Surface Waves Churn, Dive Deep Beneath To Learn”

There is a timeless lesson that we are like the ocean. The churning of the surface waves represents our mind and ego. But beneath the turbulent surface lies the calming depths of our Soul. If we identify with the waves, we may be swept around, but if we seek our true selves and dive deep beneath the surface, we will remember our eternal self as the vast ocean of spirit.

This month’s astrology is full of waves on the surface of the ocean, churning and turning with aspects and movement from the personal planets. If we stay at the surface, we may get lost. But there are deeper tones and more profound guidance coming from the Soul and the great depths of consciousness unfolding. Tune into your spiritual heart at this time and seek the guidance of your Soul, your intuition, and your inner wisdom. “As The Surface Waves Churn, Dive Deep Beneath To Learn.”

The Aries Full Moon and Mercury moving into Scorpio on October 6 start the cycle. Aries in its purest form seeks absolute truth and self-realization. Mercury in Scorpio is exploring the depths of the Soul helping to reveal our Karma and Dharma.

On Oct 13, Venus enters her home sign of Libra, and Pluto goes direct after nearly five months of retrograde. Venus is empowered in her home of Libra and seeks to bring balance, community, relationships, and love to the forefront. Pluto represents the Soul, and in sign of Aquarius, it becomes a force of awakening, revelation, and rapid transformation—think of lightning striking a volcano. Don’t focus on the temporary churning of surface-level thoughts, society, politics, and events. Instead, turn to the lessons and guidance of the Soul. This is your intuition, your inner sun, your wisdom, and the path of self-realization.

The Libra New Moon on October 21 calls for ceremony and setting intentions. Turn inward and listen to the messages of your spiritual heart. They will guide you toward communion, community, balance, equanimity, and diplomacy. Find common ground with all beings and approach it with love, kindness, and generosity.

The Sun moves into Scorpio, and Neptune retrogrades into Pisces on October 22. Scorpio season marks the midpoint of fall and is a time for reflection, connecting with the depths, and seeking guidance from our soul. Neptune in Pisces is a very potent energy; this is the last time Neptune will be in the sign of imagination, spirit, and unconditional love for another 155 years. We are closing an old cycle that began with the Civil War in the 1860s and starting a new cycle of consciousness that will last nearly two centuries. This final dive into the ocean of Pisces serves as a reminder that we must return to ancient ways, to the Soul and love, if we are to move forward and forge into the new, emerging Age of Aquarius in a balanced way.

October 31 and November 1 mark the midpoint of fall and the mystical season of Samhain. It is also known as All Hallows’ Eve, the Day of the Dead, and All Souls’ or All Saints’ Day. During this time, the veil between worlds thins, and the illusion of separation between form and spirit dissolves. Connect with the ancient traditions, ancestors, and their timeless teachings of spirit—unconditional love. Perform ceremonies, honor your ancestors, spend time in nature, and reflect deeply on your Soul.

The Taurus Full Moon arrives on Nov 5 to kick off the next cycle. Until then, “As The Surface Waves Churn, Dive Deep Beneath To Learn.”
