Gemini horoscope October 2026

October 2026

Gemini, the Sun is in your fifth house for the first part of October, lighting romance, play and what you make for the joy of it, and moves into your sixth on 23 October.

Sun sextile Jupiter, across your fifth and third houses

The Sun and Jupiter give each other a hand this month, joining your fifth house (romance, play and what you make for the joy of it) to your third (conversations, errands, siblings and neighbours). Make a small move towards the way you word things; it meets little resistance now.

This month's changes

  • 3 October: Venus turns retrograde in your sixth house

    Venus stations retrograde on 3 October in your sixth house, daily work, routines and the to-do list. Six weeks of reconsidering begin, and affection around the to-do list needs patience.

  • 10 October: New Moon in your fifth house

    The New Moon on 10 October lands in your fifth house, so begin something small around a hobby you dropped.

  • 15 October: Pluto turns direct in your ninth house

    On 15 October Pluto turns direct in your ninth house. Transformation in travel, study, belief and the bigger picture moves forward.

  • 24 October: Mercury turns retrograde in your sixth house

    On 24 October Mercury turns retrograde in your sixth house. Plans about daily work, routines and the to-do list go back for review; the delays are where the fixes are.

  • 25 October: Venus backs into your fifth house

    On 25 October Venus, retrograde, backs into your fifth house for a second look at romance, play and what you make for the joy of it before it moves on.

  • 26 October: Full Moon in your twelfth house

    The Full Moon on 26 October falls in your twelfth house. See a worry you have not said out loud whole before you decide anything.

Where the planets are for you

  • Mercury in your sixth house

    This month Mercury brings messages and plans to your sixth house. Write things down, especially about the to-do list.

  • Venus in your sixth house, retrograde

    This month Venus warms your sixth house, so be generous with the order of your mornings. Venus is retrograde, so treat daily work, routines and the to-do list as a review rather than new ground.

  • Mars in your third house

    This month Mars stirs your third house. Use the drive on the week's run of errands before it turns into irritation.

  • Jupiter in your third house

    With Jupiter in your third house, a sibling or a neighbour can grow this month. Say yes to the larger version.

  • Saturn in your eleventh house, retrograde

    With Saturn in your eleventh house, the circle that shares your interests needs structure more than enthusiasm. Saturn is retrograde, so treat friends, groups and plans for the future as a review rather than new ground.
