Planetary news this week: Saturn/Uranus square ends

Astrological Update for the week of October 10-17, 2022

Saturn squares Uranus: The final storm. We are in the final stages of a challenging square from Saturn (compression) to Uranus (rebellion) – the planetary cycle of 2021 that fueled so much civil unrest and redundancies. While this is not an exact aspect (the two planets are 39 minutes apart of a degree and will begin to diminish, we will continue to see the final stages of reactionary behavior well into November.

When two planets are in square aspect to each other, conflict occurs which, ideally, will lead to a resolution and eventually to personal growth. But this can happen only when trying to understand the point of others. In this case we have the co-ruler of Aquarius (Saturn the traditional ruler, the modern ruler Uranus) fighting over the fate of society (Aquarius). This is not an ideal planetary position for the election, and since August it has happened quite a bit around the world, while this aspect has been in effect.

Planetary squares may bring out extremes, but we can modify their influence to some extent by finding a middle path – the “Mahayana”, the “middle way” of Buddhism.

Mercury enters Libra, For the diplomacy of Libra, Mercury leaves the order of Virgo on Monday. For the next few weeks (until October 29) there is a possibility of greater ease of dialogue and looking at both sides of an issue to find a solution, something that we can really use under Saturn/Uranus anti-energy .


Here’s what you need to know for the week ahead. Date and time are for Eastern Time Zone, please adjust for your locality.

Monday 10 October, As the week begins, the energies of Sunday’s Aries full moon begin to dwindle and the fire of the lunar event will still be felt, especially in the morning when the Moon and Mars perform a melodious dance that lasts only a few hours. This can be a highly emotionally sensitive time, and if we are not consciously breathing through the energies of mental drama, chronic pain can rise to the surface and cause problems.

This will begin to fade when the Moon moves into Taurus around 5 p.m., encouraging more calm, followed by Mercury entering Libra at 7:50 p.m. ,Moon sextile Mars at 4:14, Venus opposite Chiron at 9:15, Moon square Pluto at 10, Moon enters Taurus at 5:03 PM, Mercury enters Libra at 7:50 PM.,

Artist unknown?

Tuesday 11 October, On Tuesday we have the opportunity to find that middle path, the center of peace that can give us ground and support under the Sun/Saturn triangle. Tuesday morning would be an excellent time to achieve something difficult as there is little to distract us.

However, there are two challenging aspects that have started to form from Tuesday which will end after midnight on Wednesday. We can experience bursts of creativity and creative output but lack the energy and confidence to produce any results. Tuesday afternoon will be a great time to relax and find ways to recharge and avoid pushing things that can’t be pushed. ,Moon Trine Ceres 2:18 AM, Sun Trine Saturn 9:06 PM,

Wednesday 12 October, The challenging energies mentioned above persist through Wednesday but the Moon is more active which can help create a swirl of conflicting motivations. We have great ideas, but lack the focus on the vitality to think about them or produce results.

The best thing to do at such times is to take a breath and find a place to rest from where we can watch the changing flow around us (Taurus Moon will help with this). By noon, the wind will start blowing. ,Mars square Neptune 1:46 AM, Moon Uranus 2:19 AM, Mercury opposite Jupiter 3:23 AM, Moon square Saturn 3:36 AM, Moon sextile Neptune 12:25 PM, Moon trine Pluto 5:41 PM,

Thursday 13 October, After midnight the Moon enters Gemini, bringing our curiosity and focus to the mental realm. The harmonious aspects of the morning emotionally set the stage for a quiet day that gives the mind free rein to expand and learn. Try not to neglect the body, especially after noon, because without a healthy connection between body, mind and spirit we can get stuck and lose the flow of comfort and joy.

A harmonious Venus aspect is building up throughout the day that ends shortly after midnight and helps to facilitate this quiet space. ,Moon enters Gemini 1:07 AM, Jupiter 4:07 AM, trine Mercury 7:29 AM, square Ceres 12:54 PM,

Friday 14 October, Friday’s planetary energy is beautifully balanced and supportive. It’s the perfect day to spend time with loved ones (or yourself!) and take advantage of the weather on this lovely planet to relax and recharge.

The only caveat is that there may be some confusion or overly idealistic tendencies around 11 PM, so try not to make impulsive decisions after 9 PM. ,Venus trine Sat 2:20 AM, Moon sextile Chiron 4:03 AM, trine Sat 1:32 PM, trine Venus 2:51 PM, trine Sun 7:23 PM, square Neptune 10:45 PM,

Saturday 15 October, The Moon enters Cancer just after noon and takes us into the realm of emotions and personal relationships. We are all more sensitive when the Moon is in Cancer, and a little understanding will go a long way. ,Moon Mars conjunction at 12:10 pm, Cancer at 12:10 pm, square Jupiter at 2:43 pm,

Sunday 16 October, The lunar aspects are somewhat challenging today, especially in the afternoon when for a few hours Chiron takes off the band-aid that covers a painful wound. The breath is the best tool for managing emotions, and Sunday is an excellent day to practice paying attention to the emotions that may be affecting us. ,Moon sextile Ceres 2:35 AM, square Wed 3:18 AM, square Chiron 3:51 PM.,

Overall it’s a good week to recharge and assess where we are and how we feel about it. I hope you have a great week!
