Monthly Love Horoscope: October 2022 (2024)

The month ahead isn’t so much about your relationship with the other as it is about your relationship with yourself. So, take a moment, beautiful. Take a moment to journey inwards. To confront the demons of your past and to walk them to the exit door. It’s only by freeing yourself from the old story that you will be able to write a brand new one. To add to the retrograde drama, some of you may be confronted by your past in a literal manner. Remind yourself why things didn’t work out, Aries. Remind yourself why playing with fire means you will get burned. Remind yourself that you are your own source of joy and bliss and that you don’t need external validation to feel good about where you are right now. Moving into a space of wholeness will require work, but it will also free you from that which no longer serves your highest and greatest good.

Power crystal: Black onyx is a fiercely protective stone, one that will activate the pathways to wisdom within you.

Domestic bliss has a new meaning in the Taurus HQ this month. You’re feeling love and you’re feeling loved and you’re surrounded by the kind of people who remind you that love is what you are made of. There is so much magic unfolding all around, wild one! Allow yourself to savour the sweet nectar without worrying about what tomorrow might bring. Learning to be in the present is the best gift you can give yourself, beautiful. Single Venusians, October promises to be lucky in more ways than one. Pay attention to the suitors who are showing up for you right now. As you do, pay attention to those Bumble matches too. Fate is offering you the chance to build the foundation of a relationship that could stand the test of time and tide.

Power crystal: Known as the ‘supreme nurture’, jasper is known to strengthen your root and bring with itself a feeling of wholeness.

Oops, you did it again, Gemini! You got caught up in mental gymnastics and created problems where there were none in sight. So, do yourself a favour, put on a kaftan, light some incense sticks, and journal your thoughts. Starting a dialogue with yourself will help you recognise that things are a lot simpler than you’ve convinced yourself they are. ‘Course that doesn’t mean you will be on the same page about everything or that they will always understand where you are coming from. Remembering that the differences are an opportunity to grow will help both you and your relationship evolve. Oh, and one more thing! Resist the need to shut them out. Making yourself vulnerable isn’t always easy. But, it’s the only way to find solutions to long-standing problems and work as an A-team, wild one.

Power crystal: Kyanite, to move into a space of clarity and communicate your truth in an open and honest manner.

But, you’ve been here before, Cancer. You’ve battled with the demons of loneliness. You’ve made friends with the pain and convinced yourself that you will never take a turn for the better. But, here’s the truth: everything evolves with time and that includes you. Given that you are a different version of yourself today, why would you relate with the other in the same way? Instead of shutting them out, show up. Show up with a brave heart. Make yourself vulnerable and talk about your fears. People will not know how to love unless you teach them how to, beautiful.

Power crystal: For emotional balance and healing, work with the iridescent moonstone..

You’ve lost in love many times over, Leo. You’ve had your heart broken by those you let into your sacred space. Should that stop you from showing up for what you believe in with a brave heart? Anything but. This month, you’re being presented with the opportunity to turn your wounds into wisdom and unlock the door you once slammed shut. Make sure you find a balance between your head and your heart, though, for making practical decisions at this time will prove to be your superpower. Lions who are already in a committed relationship may feel like emotional intimacy is lacking at the moment. Instead of playing mind games with the other, tell them how you really feel. Express both your needs and wants explicitly and know this will bring you closer on a soul level.

Power crystal: Aquamarine, to communicate your truth with compassion and to become one with the rhythm and flow.

Mercury retrograde compelled you to confront your deepest and darkest fears. You are *not* the same person you were a month ago. So, how will aspects of your life remain unchanged, beautiful? October sees you returning to that space of wholeness and trusting the love you have manifested into your Universe. Yes, there is some more work to be done. But, there is nothing you cannot figure out when you’re playing for the same team, Virgo. For some of you, exchanging vows in the presence of your tribe or starting a family together may also be on the cards. There is oh-so-much to celebrate in the weeks to come! Free yourself from the fear that it will all come crashing down as you allow yourself to revel in what this moment is offering you.

Power crystals: Harness the energy of selenite to clear the patterns of your past.

This month, you’re consumed by the desire to melt and merge. To dissolve the barriers and experience alchemy of the highest order. You want to bare it all, your heart and soul, without worrying yourself sick about the outcome. What is yours will always be yours, and this something you understand on a soul level, beautiful. Your partner’s willingness to show up for you consistently is a sign they’re just as invested in the future of this relationship as you are. The catch? They may not always live up to your lofty ideas or communicate with you in a poetic manner. Learning that their love language is fundamentally different from yours will help you connect on a deeper level and nurture the sapling of your relationship.

Power crystal: Rose quartz, to remember that you are love and that love is all that there is.

It’s been a long and lonely road, Scorpio. You’ve lost in love more times than you can count, and you’re still grieving from what you had to put your heart through. The good thing is, you are in an entirely different timeline today. You are in the process of relating with somebody who holds space for you to come as you are and does not shy away from having open and honest conversations around the things that matter. But, that doesn’t mean letting them into your inner sanctum does not come with its own set of challenges. Become aware of the blockages, inner and outer, as you dissolve them with love. Give yourself the permission to make space for both the messy and the magical. Something tells us your relationship will grow from strength to strength as you move forward.

Power crystal: Yellow calcite, to gently clear the outmoded and give you the confidence you need to show up for the love you desire and deserve.

If it isn’t working out, it isn’t working out. Hold space for the rage and the resentment too as you give yourself the permission to let go of what no longer serves your highest and greatest good. Don’t let the fear of loneliness become the reason you resist the winds of change. Sagittarians who have been together for a while may find that there are many fluctuations in their relationship. That their partner seems to be emotionally unavailable at the moment. Have you considered their inability to show up at this time has little to do with you and a lot to do with them? Give them the time and space they need to do the inner work, beautiful, and trust this will heal rather than hinder your relationship.

Power crystal: Black tourmaline, to ground your energy and help you transmute your pain into power.

But, you are not the same person you were yesterday. Understand and acknowledge your own evolution, Capricorn, as you make sure you are relating with them from an authentic space. Word for the wise: it’s time to revisit the rules of engagement. Saturnians who’ve recently started seeing somebody are being encouraged to take one step at a time. To get to know them on an informal level instead of trying to put a label on your connection. Relating from a space of joy and playfulness will bring you closer in more ways than you can imagine, beautiful.

Power crystal: Citrine, to awaken a sense of joy and wonder.

You’ve faced your fears, Aquarius. You’ve made a choice to show up for this commitment despite how things have turned out for you in the past. But, there’s a nagging feeling that they’re not as invested as you are. That you're going to be stuck in second gear despite your best efforts to hit the accelerator. Here’s a cup of truth tea: you cannot change other people or get them to do things on your timeline. So, have the conversations you need to but also manage your expectations. It’s best to make peace with the fact that things may not resolve immediately. Some of you may even be dealing with a case of infidelity right now. The important thing to remember is that it’s *not* about you. Instead of blaming yourself for what went wrong and why, focus on finding solutions to long standing problems.

Power crystal: Amethyst, to bring a sense of calm in the midst of this storm, help manage the anxiety you could be feeling around your relationship and to awaken your inner wisdom.

Just a reminder: you are in the life you manifested a long time ago. So, allow yourself to be in the energy of receiving, wild one. Allow yourself to savour the sweet nectar that is being poured into your cup.You deserve every bit of the love, care and affection you have manifested in your world. Single Neptunians, you’re being guided to pay attention to somebody who is already in their orbit. A certain somebody you’ve known for a while. October is bringing with itself the opportunity to explore the length and breadth of this connection without being in a rush to get to a certain destination. PS: If only you could see the magic that surrounds you right now!

Power crystal: Rhodochrosite will empower you to move deeper into your heart space and break down the walls you have built over the years.
