Aries, October begins with the Sun in your seventh house and ends with it in your eighth: partnership and the people you deal with one to one, then intimacy, trust and what you share with others.
Sun sextile Jupiter, across your seventh and fifth houses
This month, the Sun in your seventh house and Jupiter in your fifth make the link between partnership and the people you deal with one to one and romance, play and what you make for the joy of it simple. Let someone who sees things differently from you take you somewhere new.
