Visible Planets: Morning: Saturn
Evening: Venus and Jupiter

The first week of October is upon us. Weather changes as evenings grow cold and mornings are crisp. The heat of Indian Summer wanes as daylight hours shorten. Flames flicker as autumn fires warm our homes and inspire our hearts. The season of impending darkness has arrived. Night skys are dark and scattered with diamonds, Venus shimmers low in the west at dusk and Jupiter remains an easy-to-identify beacon of light in twilight and on into dawn. Messenger Mercury is retrograde in Libra until Oct. 15th, so we are well advised to practice peace and cultivate patience in our relationships. Give yourself and others a break, take it easy! Pairing and sharing dominate the collective and individual consciousness, make sure you’re happy with you and let others be happy, too. Be aware and be there. Good luck!
