The start of Scorpio season
On October 23, 2026, the Sun moves into the zodiac sign of Scorpio, and the coming month — until November 22 — is devoted in the astrological calendar to intense feelings, trust, and desires. As Life.ru notes, in astrology this water sign is associated with emotional closeness, secrets, jealousy, and the drive to get to the essence of things, so the season is considered a time when polite stock answers satisfy less than usual: you want to understand what a person really feels, why agreements are not being fulfilled, and where shared money is going. The publication warns that with such curiosity one can have a useful conversation — or one can subject to an interrogation a person who simply forgot to charge their phone.
A special feature of the season: retrograde planets
According to Life.ru, the season will be special because of planetary movements: since October 3, Venus has been moving retrograde, and from October 24 Mercury will join it — its backward motion will last until November 13 and will take place in the sign of Scorpio. On October 25, Venus will move from Scorpio into Libra. In astrological interpretation, this combination brings attention back to old feelings and unfinished conversations: long-forgotten promises may resurface, as well as grievances that the other person supposedly forgave. At the same time, there will be a reason to return to an abandoned idea or to renegotiate terms that have stopped being satisfactory. For five zodiac signs, the return to old matters may, according to the publication, turn into money — for example, payment for a previous order or an offer from a familiar client.
Forecasts for the zodiac signs
Life.ru publishes forecasts for all 12 signs for the period from October 23 to November 22. Aries will have to sort out shared money, debts, and family expenses; in relationships there will be a desire for closeness, but it is not worth pursuing it through jealousy, while for single Aries friendly communication may turn into a romance. Taurus will grow tired of uncertainty in relationships, and singles may be captivated by a mysterious person. Gemini will discover how many other people's tasks have become their duties, and the season is suitable for reviewing their workload. Cancer will crave romance and attention, a new attraction is possible, and inspiration will be useful in creative work. Leo will have to deal with the home and family arrangements, including matters of renovation and moving.
Forecasts for the remaining signs
Virgo will want direct answers to questions that have gone unexplained; attentiveness will help spot confusion in agreements and documents, and the season is suitable for study and finishing correspondence. Libra may grow tired of working for gratitude — there will be a reason to discuss pay and review expenses. Scorpio will want more time for themselves and their own plans, and there will be more refusals. Sagittarius will be drawn to silence and solitude — the pause can be used to finish old matters; memories of exes are possible, but there is no need to resume communication immediately. Capricorn will take a closer look at friends and colleagues; a useful acquaintance or an old joint project may be revived. Aquarius will want recognition of professional merit — if duties have increased while conditions remain the same, a conversation with management will become ripe. Pisces will crave new experiences, trips, and study, and in relationships shared interests and visions of the future will become more important.
