Here's Your Horoscope For The Second Week Of October 2019

We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com, to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each day. Today's topic: your daily horoscope for October 7, 2019.

There may be a bit of a heaviness in the air that may be hard to shake as the Sun in romantic Libra squares off with serious Saturn in Capricorn by the late afternoon. Since Libra is a sign that's partnership and pleasure-oriented, we can use this Sun-Saturn combo to help us see where we may be overextending ourselves or being over indulgent. For some of us, this cosmic combo could bring us the reality check we need. However, we may also need to remember not to be too hard on ourselves or each other.

The Moon is in friendly Aquarius for the day, putting the emphasis on the friendships we have and the groups we belong to. Though with the Moon squaring off with unconventional Uranus in Taurus and eye-opening Mercury in Scorpio in the morning, we might find ourselves at odds with others or feeling misunderstood. The best thing to do is to seek out those that inspire us, break away from those that drain us, and be careful of taking things too personally.

Read below to see what the stars mean for your sign today, and make sure to check out your October 2019 monthly horoscope.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

You might be feeling like the odd duck out today, but know that this could just be you receiving the push you need to break ties with the people you can't truly be yourself with. Your values are shifting, and what you used to think was important isn't now. Don't compare yourself to others.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

The focus is on your career and ambitions today and you might be craving praise or attention from others in terms of the work that you're doing. However, you might be extra sensitive to criticism too, so take what others say now with a grain of salt. You are your own validation.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

You might have some big plans that you want to execute now but before you get to work, you may need to take a step back and evaluate how committed you are to this vision. Your passion is being tested but you don't necessarily need to give up. You just need to keep it real.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

An intimate relationship may be asking more of you than you can afford to give right now and today you may need to have a conversation about it, even if it's an uncomfortable one. Doing so can help you foster the change that you'd like to see or at least help you set better boundaries.

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)

A business partnership may not be going the way that you'd like it to go. If this has been a long running issue, it may be time for you to speak up or go in a new direction. Trust your instincts always. In matters of the heart, don't settle for someone that can't see your vision.

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)

You could feel like you're being pulled in multiple directions today. Though you may need to step back and consider whether you're taking on way too much. Prioritize what's really important to you. Purging or releasing the unnecessary stuff (physical things included) could be helpful.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

It might be hard not to be too hard on yourself today, but you're encouraged to resist the urge to be too self-critical. Making room for your joy is a good way of reaffirming your worth and all the goodness that you deserve. Try not to get too hung up on the past. Break free.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

You and your partner or you and a family member may not be on the same page today, which could have your heart and your mind heavy. While you make want to push for a solution, now's the time for you to step back, take a breather, and focus on caring for your own well-being.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

You've got lots to do today, so much to do that you might not even know where to start. Though know you'll find the most success by focusing on one thing and perfecting it rather than spreading yourself in multiple directions. Don't be discouraged by how long something takes.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

You might be questioning your worth today due to money offered (or not) for your creative gifts, or because of a shaky romantic situation. As such, you're encouraged to pull inward and focus on getting centered and connecting to your own power. Your family, chosen or not, is a balm.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

You might be feeling a bit sensitive today and people tugging on your energy won't help you to feel any better. This is why you may need to be protective of your time and energy. Also, be mindful of taking others' opinion of you to heart. Voicing what you feel can help you to release it.

Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)

You might feel a tug-of-war between wanting quiet time to and wanting to socialize. However eager you may be to show up for others right now, this is one of those days where you have to honor your need for peace and quiet. On a different note, your creativity is on fire.

We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. That's why Bustle has enlisted Mecca Woods, a New York City-based astrologer of MyLifeCreated.com, to tell us all about how astrology is affecting our lives each day. Today's topic: your daily horoscope for October 8, 2019.

The big news of the day comes courtesy of Venus (the planet of love and values), which is leaving airy Libra for the deep waters of Scorpio this afternoon. With Venus in all-or-nothing Scorpio, things like love, relationships, beauty, and pleasure all become more seductive, raw, and intimate. Venus in Scorpio asks that we make sure that whatever we want is 100 percent the real deal, and that we accept no substitutes.

With the Moon still in friendly Aquarius, we're still focused on the connections that we share with our community and those at large. Since the Moon will be teaming up with the Sun in sociable Libra and Jupiter in happy-go-lucky Jupiter during the first half of the day, we should find that socializing, networking, and joining forces with others can lead to opportunity and success. However, with Venus in Scorpio, we're asked to ensure our allegiances are truly worth our time and effort.

By later this evening, ambitious Mars in Libra opposes wounded Chiron in Aries, which could have us feeling touchy, defensive, or ineffective. However, this cosmic combo can help us to see where we may need to be more assertive or where we need to be more open to working with others.

Here’s your daily horoscope for October 9, 2019, according to Mecca Woods, Bustle’s resident astrologer and creator of MyLifeCreated.com. We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible or how each sign handles conflict in relationships.

After the Moon leaves friendly yet detached Aquarius in the early afternoon, the Moon shifts into compassionate and tender Pisces. This will heighten our emotions, sensitivity, and intuition. With the Moon in this placement, we'll likely find ourselves in the mood for an escape, a retreat, or a really good nap.

Later in the afternoon, the Pisces Moon teams up with Venus in passionate Scorpio, which encourages us to foster and nourish connections with others that offer space for vulnerability, intimacy, and mutual healing.

By late tonight, the Pisces Moon teams up with unconventional Uranus in Taurus. Since Pisces and Taurus are highly creative signs, having the Moon in Pisces join Uranus along with Venus in Scorpio, can also be an inspiring mix that helps us delve deeper into our passions and see things in a new light.

Here’s your daily horoscope for October 10, 2019, according to Mecca Woods, Bustle’s resident astrologer and creator of MyLifeCreated.com. We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. Below, a look at how astrology will affect our lives today.

The focus is on our feelings today for a few reasons: Firstly, the Moon is in softhearted Pisces, which means we'll all be feeling a little more sensitive. Secondly, the Moon will also be teaming up with intuitive and passionate Scorpio at the start of the day, so we might find ourselves in the mood to discuss our feelings or talk about things that are close to our hearts. If any of you need to have a heart-to-heart with someone, this could be a good day for it.

By the late afternoon, the Pisces Moon teams up with hardworking Saturn in Capricorn, which could help us with setting healthy boundaries within our relationships or making a dream come to life. Though by later tonight, when the Pisces Moon teams up with dreamy Neptune in Pisces, we might find ourselves feeling more sensitive, foggy, or intuitive than usual. While this Moon-Neptune combo can be great for acts of kindness, relaxation, and creative inspiration, it's not so great for making hard and fast decisions.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

It's possible that your dreams can come true where it pertains to your professional and financial goals, but before you move full steam ahead, you may need to make a few tweaks. Hint: it's time to use your energy more strategically and make sure you're operating from a full heart.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

There's very little that you can't achieve right now and if something you're envisioning is taking forever to come together, you should get the support you need today to get things moving. To do so, it's possible that you may need to take a different direction. Be open and flexible.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

Your career and ambitions are spotlit today. As such, it may be time for you to take stock of where you are and where you'd like to go, so you can fine tune your plans accordingly. Hold fast to your dream and know that you possess the power to make it come true. Stay focused.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

If you're looking to make something big happen, then you've got to be optimistic that it will. Consider today as an opportunity to renew your faith in yourself, which means taking a look at the bigger picture. Your partner, mentor, or someone close to you can play a supporting role.

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)

You've got a shot at meeting some of your financial goals now, but it may require a more disciplined approach to how you not only handle money but how you think about it too. It could be good to explore your inherited beliefs about money. Know that you were meant to thrive.

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)

Relationships are highlighted today, namely a significant one. You could be taking an existing relationship (either professional or romantic) to a new and deeper level. If single, you may need to refresh your approach to love and relationships. Start by knowing you are lovable as you are.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

Self-improvement is the goal for you now, but try not to be too critical of yourself. If you can extend compassion to others, you can extend compassion to yourself too. Today will show you where you could use some extra care and attention around your health and well-being.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

Your creative gifts are at the forefront today as you could receive the inspiration or the green light to move forward with a project. Though moving forward may involve honing your craft or refining the idea on the table. In love, a fresh start could be on the way. Your heart gets a reset.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

It's time for you to focus more on your emotional nourishment and whether you're getting your recommended daily intake. If not, now's the time to pour some extra love into your bowl and look to the people that you love for support. A family relationship can be healed now.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

It might be time for you to adopt a new way of seeing things, especially when it comes to seeing what's possible. And no, it's not wishful thinking. It's simply realizing that things aren't as bad as you might think. In other words, a little hope goes a long way, as does creativity.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

You could receive word of a new job or financial opportunity that can improve your sense of stability. But recognize that you are more than worthy to get what you want. On a different note, it's time to practice the art of receiving. Allow others to return to you what you so readily offer.

Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)

If there's something you need to get off your chest, especially if it concerns a friend, then this is the day to do it. Know that whatever you need to say will be heard. On a different note, you might be craving some new experiences today. Seek out the things that nourish your spirit.

Here’s your daily horoscope for October 11, 2019, according to Mecca Woods, Bustle’s resident astrologer and creator of MyLifeCreated.com. We’re constantly fascinated by what our zodiac sign says about our lives, whether it's which signs are most compatible or how each sign handles conflict in relationships. Below, a look at how astrology will affect our lives today.

The Moon finishes out her transit through compassionate and dreamy Pisces today, which will encourage us to slow our roll and to ramp up creative inspiration. Since Pisces is more intuitive than logical, we're pushed to lean into our intuition and avoid seeing things as we want them to be. This theme will be super important when the Pisces Moon squares off with optimistic Jupiter in Sagittarius in the early morning.

A short while later, the Pisces Moon teams up with powerful Pluto in Capricorn, which can assist us with releasing people, things, and situations that we've outgrown or have put a damper on our spirits. This Moon-Pluto combination can also help us with facing our fears and finding the hope needed to press forward.

Though with the Moon going Void-Of-Course (the period of time when the Moon is transitioning between zodiac signs) later in the morning, now's not the time for pushing ourselves or others too hard but rather going with the flow, letting what needs to be released go.

Read below to see what the stars mean for your sign today, and make sure to check out your October 2019 monthly horoscope.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

You might not be seeing something as clearly as you should today but try to hold off on making any rash decisions until you get more of the facts. It's possible that you could be making something out to be bigger than what it is. Give yourself time. You'll be back in the running soon.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

You can't be everything to everyone, so there's no use in stressing yourself out; namely when it comes to people that may be too demanding of your attention. If you're feeling low energy, it's OK to pull back and get the rest you need. Some time to yourself is needed now.

Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

You might be seeking attention and praise today for your efforts but it may not arrive the way you want it to. On a different note, you could receive some encouragement today that you may not have been expecting. Regardless, surround yourself with the folks that support you.

Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

You're ready to shoot for the moon today and while you shouldn't lose sight of your vision, you may need to be mindful of taking on more than you can handle or glossing over the finer details of a situation. Take it easy for now. The focus, motivation, and follow-through you need will come.

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)

A romantic situation may be sucking up too much of your attention now, especially if someone can't offer you the intimacy that you crave. It's also possible that you aren't seeing this person as clearly as you should either. The moment of truth approaches, as does your liberation.

Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)

You may be asked to come to the rescue of someone in need now but be careful of overdoing it. On a separate note, if you find that you're in need of support and assistance, you can expect to be pushed to find the courage to speak up and ask for it. A little vulnerability makes a difference.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

With all of the errands, meetings, and stuff on your plate today, it might be hard not to feel harried and overwhelmed. Still, know that you don't have to take everything onto your shoulders. Look to ways that you can connect and collaborate with others to ease the responsibility.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

You might be in the mood to spend big today, but you may need to curb your thirst for instant gratification, as there's a chance that you could find that something you wanted isn't what you want after all. This also goes for romance too. Slow down and use your powers of discernment.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

You might be feeling a bit more sensitive or nostalgic than usual today. Though as uncomfortable as the feelings might be, it's best to sit with them and release them than try to hold your feels back. Spending time with loved ones could be a welcome boost. Make time for fun today.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

You may be anxious about something today that might be beyond your control. If you're feeling particularly nervous, this could be a good time for talking to someone you trust or channeling the energy into something creative. Recognize that worry isn't a form of productivity.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

A random act of kindness from someone could make your day. That said, try to look for the best in people rather than focusing on their shortcomings. Overall, your resources can be found in your friendships, so make time to connect. Additionally, be careful of overspending.

Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)

You might be looking to others to validate you when it comes to your career, but the only approval you need is the approval you give yourself. On a similar note, it might be time for you to step outside your comfort zone where your professional goals are concerned. Know your worth.
