October Astrology Forecast 2025

Announcement with this episode 🦋 I'll now be creating monthly forecasts in place of weekly forecasts. As my experience of astrology shifts, I want to honor what feels right for me and also shift how I show up here with you. Right now, this means monthly forecasts to allow for a wider perspective on the astrology of the moment. You can hear a bit more about my thought process on this in my previous episode, "Transits are Rites of Initiation". I hope you enjoy this episode and I welcome your feedback 🙏🏻🌀🌟
