Here's Your Horoscope For Today: October 13, 2020

In this October 13 daily horoscope, Bustle's resident astrologer Mecca Woods, founder of My Life Created, shares the astrological events happening today that will affect every zodiac sign. Below, here's a look at how astrology will affect our lives today.

It's that time of year again when communication gets confusing, stuff gets dredged up from the past, and we can expect last minute changes with plans. Yes, Mercury retrograde begins tonight. Though more than likely, we'll be feeling the effects of Mercury's slowdown well before the actual retrograde as the Moon enters analytical Virgo (one of the zodiac signs that Mercury is in charge of) in the wee hours of the morning.

Between the Moon being in detailed-oriented Virgo and Mercury going retrograde in instinctual and penetrating Scorpio, today asks us to do our due diligence in getting our facts and figures straight. We're also encouraged to stay flexible, especially as the Virgo Moon teams up with Mercury in Scorpio and love planet Venus in Virgo late this evening.

There could be a few surprises and interesting developments cropping up today as the Moon teams up with unstable Uranus in Taurus by the late afternoon and the Sun in diplomatic Libra opposes aggressive Mars in Aries. With Mars (which is also retrograde) influencing Mercury in Scorpio, communication could be tough. The best way to handle any contention is to try to remain as cool and objective as possible, and use the power of discernment.

Read below to see what the stars mean for your zodiac sign today, and make sure to check out your October 2020 monthly horoscopes.
