From October 12 to October 18: according to tradition, the Sun puts the emphasis on retreat, inner life, and what stays hidden.
The Sun enters the house of withdrawal, just before your own sign. Tradition would see a phase of quiet review, useful retreat, and preparation before a new personal cycle.
Pluto stations and turns direct on October 16 at 4:23 AM, in Aquarius, in your 4th solar house.
Pluto resumes its forward march: what was turned over in depth becomes visible again, according to tradition.
A slow theme of a generation, with no immediate link to a specific day.
Venus is in your 1st solar house (self and appearance).
On the heart side, the house of identity first raises the question of who you are before being part of a pair.
This position might invite you to show yourself as you are, even if it surprises, and to observe the reaction rather than guess it.
Venus is in Scorpio (retrograde), in your 1st solar house (self and appearance), in your sign.
Venus on your sign softens your manner: you charm without effort and look after your image. Tradition would see a moment when the wish to please comes before the wish to be right.
Mercury is in your 1st solar house (self and appearance).
For your career, the house of identity stresses professional image and personal initiative.
This position might invite you to present yourself clearly, to propose rather than wait to be asked.
Mercury is in Scorpio, in your 1st solar house (self and appearance), in your sign.
Mercury on your sign makes speech quick: you say what you think and you think fast. Tradition would see a good moment to introduce yourself, provided you reread before sending.
Mars is in your 10th solar house (calling and public role).
In everyday life, the house of vocation puts work and responsibilities in the front line.
It might make days more structured, with less room for improvisation.
Mars is in Leo, in your 10th solar house (calling and public role), square your sign.
Mars at the top of the solar sky stokes ambition: initiative at work, a wish to lead, to stand out. This position might shake up the hierarchy or challenge it.
A conditional reading of the real sky, with no prediction: read it with some distance. Why?
Positions at midweek; dates and times in Paris, to the minute. The Moon changes sign about every two and a half days.
For Scorpio, the week would put forward intensity and what transforms.
The week is read through the Sun, the fast planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars), sign changes, stations, and lunations. The engine calculates their real positions, then arranges them in your solar chart, where your sign takes the 1st house. If a new moon or a full moon falls within the period, it is put forward; otherwise, it is a station or a planet’s entry into a new sign. The texts are written from tradition, in the conditional, and ignore the rising sign as much as the birth time.
The astronomical engine sets the positions of the Sun and the planets for the seven days, finds the lunations, stations, and sign changes, then places them counting from the sign Scorpio. The texts that go with each fact are traditional readings, never certainties.
That the planet is crossing the sign corresponding to that house, counted from your sign. Mars in the 10th house means, for example, Mars in the tenth sign from yours, read through vocation. It is a simplified reading, useful for an overview, which does not replace a personal chart.
It applies first to the Sun sign. Your rising sign shifts the numbering of the houses: a planet in the 5th solar house may fall in the 6th or 4th actual house. Reading the page for your rising sign, or having your chart calculated, gives a picture closer to your own case.
No, and each sentence reminds you of it through its conditional. The week describes a climate drawn from the real sky: a lunation, a planet’s passage, a retrograde. What you do with it, and what actually happens, depends on many things besides the stars.
