October 2025 🌗
Libra–Scorpio Season & Major Transits
Welcome to October, Cosmic Cousins. On this episode, Jeff Hinshaw of 'Cosmic Cousins' joins forces with Taylor Ursula of 'That's So Pisces' to explore the transits of October 2025. We arrive at the balance time of year, the Equinox, when day and night are in equal measure. This month invites us to recalibrate, reflect on what we’ve harvested, and prepare for the descent into the darker half of the year.
In this episode, we explore the astrological climate of October 2025, beginning with Libra season’s call to balance and moving into Scorpio’s depth and transformation. Together we track the month’s major planetary movements and ingresses:
Oct 1: Juno enters Sagittarius — expanding partnerships, seeking truth in relationships
Oct 6: Mercury enters Scorpio + Aries Full Moon at 14° Aries — deep thought, ancestral work, raw emotional intensity
Oct 13: Venus enters Libra (homecoming) + Pluto stations direct in Aquarius — harmony, renewal of motivation, collective rebalancing
Oct 21: Libra New Moon at 28° Libra — intentions for beauty, peace, and partnership
Oct 22: Neptune retrograde re-enters Pisces (for the last time in our lifetimes) + Sun enters Scorpio — karmic release, deeper truths revealed
Oct 26: Mars conjunct Black Moon Lilith in Scorpio — shadow, desire, power, transformation
Oct 29: Mercury enters Sagittarius — shift toward vision, expansion, and honesty
Throughout, we touch on themes of:
✨ Recalibration and relational harmony (Libra)
✨ Shadow work, endings, and rebirth (Scorpio)
✨ Special message from Marcella Kroll's book Healing the Liminal
✨ The final dissolutions of Neptune in Pisces
✨ Anticipation of Sagittarius’ forward-looking momentum
✨ Tarot + music as portals into these energies
This episode features music from artists:
