The simplified profile of planetary aspects reaching a peak in the month of October is: 5 conjunctions, 2 oppositions, 4 trines, 2 squares. For what it may be worth, the two planetary oppositions peak in the first two days of the month. So maybe the rest of the month may not be so bad.Sun parallel Mercury peaks in the wee hours of the 1st, helping the thinking processes. But then in the afternoon, Mercury 1/2 Jupiter arouses the "think big" tendency unrealistically. Mercury parallel Jupiter peaks in the wee hours of the 2nd, making "think big" more realistic, but then later in the morning, Mercury 1/2 Uranus introduces unexpected breaches of connectivities. Conversations and trips may be suddenly cut off.Reaching a peak in the afternoon of the 3rd, Venus CON Mars in Scorpio motivates feelings to be expressed freely and overtly -- perhaps too overtly in some cases. And due to Mercury parallel Uranus peaking about an hour later, some of those expressions could be somewhat surprising. But as the day wears on, things become more stabilized due to the peak of Mercury parallel Saturn late in the evening.
Peaking late in the evening of the 4th, Mercury 1/4 Pluto brings on a tendency for irritating conversations and even argumentation.
Since Mercury crosses the Earth's equatorial plane on the 5th, and since the declinations of Saturn and Uranus are small, Mercury parallels both of them on the 7th like it did on the 3rd, except in reverse order. Peaking at about midday on the 7th, Mercury parallel Saturn encourages stable and even serious thinking and communication. And then peaking later in the afternoon, Mercury parallel Uranus changes the mood to more spontaneous expressions and unexpected thoughts and greater originality.
Venus goes stationary-retrograde in the sign of Scorpio in the wee hours of the 8th, greatly emphasizing subjectivity, feelings, ideas of fairness and balancing previous cycles -- and, oh yes, femininity. Peaking a few hours later (but still very early on the 8th), Mercury CON Saturn in the sign of Libra (the sign that is associated with Venus) encourages some serious thinking and communication on substantially the same subjects as emphasized by the stationary Venus aspect. And then, peaking in the afternoon (8th), Jupiter 1/12 Neptune spreads a field of fuzzy comfort. Because of the various influences that peak on the 8th, it could turn out to be an interesting day in various ways.
(Note: The precise timings of the aspects for October 8 can be seen on the sample aspect page which is posted during the month of September at www.newstandardaspectarian.com.)
Peaking in the afternoon of the 9th, Mercury parallel Jupiter makes the "think big" tendency somewhat realistic -- just like it did on the 2nd.
Venus goes stationary in declination in the afternoon of the 10th, again emphasizing subjectivity, feelings, balance, femininity, etc. -- somewhat similar to when it went stationary in longitude on the 8th.
Peaking in the wee hours of the 11th, Saturn parallel Uranus tends to bring harmony between old and new, past and future, tradition and spontaneity, stability and adventure, and all of the things that make the influences of those two planets seem so diverse.
Peaking in the afternoon/evening of the 16th, Mars parallel Pluto intensifies the tendency toward competition, but not necessarily in a negative way. It also boosts the expression of energy, especially involving groups. Also in the afternoon/evening, Sun CON Mercury in Libra makes it easier to balance your monthly bank statement (or anything else).
In the wee hours of the 18th, Mercury 1/3 Neptune creates an atmosphere which increases the compatibility for the manifestation of inspiration. Dreams could be particularly realistic, useful, and informative.
To an extent, the wee hours of the 19th will manifest like the wee hours of the 18th. Sun parallel Mercury will sharpen the mental acuity, and Sun 1/3 Neptune will bring an atmosphere which feels smooth and comfortable and is more amenable to inspiration. Dreams will reflect this.
In the afternoon/evening of the 20th, Mars 1/3 Jupiter (in Scorpio and Pisces, respectively, both being water signs) increases the compatibility for the harmonious expression of forces/motions involving open spaces -- such as water skiing, boat races, etc. It can even include contests for catching big fish. But some people might feel a desire to get drunk.
Early in the morning of the 22nd, Mars 1/4 Neptune can intensify drunken tendencies, or it can cause water or gas leakages in industrial facilities, home heating and cooling systems, and people. Slick-tongued tricksters abound during this kind of influence.
Peaking in the wee hours of the 24th (and strong the previous evening), Mercury parallel Neptune increases the intuitive tendencies. And then, peaking early in the morning of the same day (24th), Mars 1/3 Uranus brings unusual or unexpected sounds or motions.
Peaking early in the morning of the 25th, Mercury CON Venus in Scorpio makes it easier to communicate one's feelings and emotions. And at about the same time, Venus parallel Mars tends to sharpen the focus of such communications to male-female participants. Peaking in the evening (but in orb for many days), Jupiter 5/11 Saturn introduces a negative note, potentially involving such things as health, finances, and stability.
Peaking in the wee hours of the 27th (but in orb for many days), Saturn 3/8 Neptune creates a downer atmosphere, sometimes involving feelings like hopelessness. Coupled with the above-mentioned Jupiter 5/11 Saturn influence, this period of time is not the best time for a party.
In the afternoon/evening of the 28th, Sun parallel Neptune focuses on nebulous concepts and feelings, generally creating a smooth and comfortable (though somewhat out-of-focus) atmosphere. And Sun CON Venus in the sign of Scorpio focuses on feelings and subjectivity in general, and openly expressing those feelings in particular -- especially in crowds.
Peaking at about midday on the 29th, Venus parallel Pluto continues the tendency for feelings to be expressed openly -- especially in crowds.
In the afternoon of the 31st, Mercury parallel Venus encourages talking and writing about our feelings. If we wanted to tell someone how we really feel about the person, it could be easier at this time.
Notwithstanding the negative clouds created by the Jupiter 5/11 Saturn and Saturn 3/8 Neptune aspects (peaking on the 25th and 27th, respectively), October could actually end on a tolerable/acceptable note.
