You are surely busy, getting ready to don your costumes, put on masks, and embrace the spooky revelry — and there will be no shortage of that during the weekend ahead. But even if you’re costume-averse and more of a stay-at-home type, the stars have a party in store for you.
Whether you’re looking for a trick or a treat, you’ll find it because the conjunction of the Sun, Mars, and Mercury is going to add some energy and excitement to all our lives. Mercury, the lovable trickster, is always up for some fun. I do hope it’s not at anyone’s expense, though, given that harsher-natured Mars is along for the ride.
Pranks are fine and dandy, but best try to keep them light this time around. Those on the receiving end may not appreciate them as they otherwise would. That’s because the Sun, Mercury, and Mars are all in opposition with Jupiter.
The stars are urging us to indulge a bit as we pursue Halloween’s traditions. Whatever that means to you — carving up pumpkins, eating a whole bucket of candy, or howling at the Moon at midnight — go ahead and celebrate.

Everything is feeling particularly intense lately, I know. But trust that means things are changing for the better: transitional periods are never easy, but they are necessary.

Things don’t always have to be so serious. There’s a real sense of joy, revelry, and attraction happening in your orbit right now. Lean into it and allow yourself to have a good time.
LEO
July 23 – Aug. 22
You’ll find joy and comfort in domesticity this week. Bring the party home and invite people over to show them what a great host you are. It’s a great week to show off your art collection and decorating skills.
VIRGO
Aug. 23 – Sept. 22
Try not to overthink things this week. I know that’s easier said than done: you’re deeply inquisitive. But obsessing about questions that can’t be answered will just drive you mad.
LIBRA
Sept. 23 – Oct. 22
Health and wellness concerns may arise this week. Focusing on your fitness and eating habits is the thing to do to clear up minor issues, be they physical or mental.
SCORPIO
Oct. 23 – Nov. 21
You may find the clarity you seek on a matter of personal importance. The truth will come to light, allowing you to act from a place of understanding. If you’ve been putting off taking action on something, now is the time to do it.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22 – Dec. 21
When you’re seeking spiritual and emotional fulfillment, it’s important to explore your options. Feeling stagnant or complacent is uncomfortable for you, Sagittarius. You need space to grow, so find it wherever you can.
CAPRICORN
Dec. 22 – Jan. 19
It seems as if whenever you get some free time you fight it, trying to keep productive. Allowing yourself to take a break will help you recharge. Haven’t you heard? Grind culture is out.
AQUARIUS
Jan. 20 – Feb. 18
Do you have a lack of discipline or an abundance of it? Either way, it’s a good time to find some balance between the two. Black-and-white thinking isn’t doing you any favors.
PISCES
Feb. 19 – March 20
You can achieve by allowing yourself some solitude. Try to know your own mind about things. Spending some time alone, free from the opinions of others, can be liberating.
