OVERALL: All Signs
Mood: Bold truths, deep transformations.
This week begins in the afterglow of Dussehra (Oct 2) and flows straight into one of the year’s most charged lunations: the Full Moon in Aries (Oct 6). Expect breakthroughs around identity, courage, and leadership; it’s a Harvest Moon moment that demands honesty. On the same day, Mercury enters Scorpio, shifting conversations into depth, strategy, and sometimes secrecy. The intensity continues with Mars in Scorpio, already powering focus, passion, and fearless investigation. By the end of the week, we reach Karva Chauth (Oct 10), a reminder that devotion, fasting, and intention can transform bonds.
This week bridges the victory energy of Dussehra, the wisdom celebrated at Valmiki Jayanti (Oct 7), and the devotion of Karva Chauth (Oct 10). Each touchpoint echoes the cosmic story: truth spoken with courage, lessons honored with humility, and love renewed through ritual.
