October 1-15 2025: Aries Full Moon, New "Best of Both" Format

from This Week in Astrology · host Benjamin Bernstein

An Aries Full Moon featuring a Quadriform aspect pattern highlights the first half of October. We also have Pluto turning direct, tons of Mercury and Venus aspects, and more! In my previous forecast, I shifted from a chronological format to a theme-based format, with the most important events first.  In response to your feedback, this time I'm trying a "best of both" approach. I start with the new format, but end with a concise chronological listing. Its individual events link to the appropriate theme-based sections.  Please let me know what you think of this hybrid approach at [email protected].

All dates and times are in the U.S. eastern time zone. Events are most powerful on the dates listed, but their influence will be active for at least a week before and after. Everyone is affected by these global transits. However, you'll be most powerfully impacted when moving planets activate sensitive points in your natal chart.
