Would you look at that, it’s already October. We have a few months left in 2025, but now is not the time to get too comfortable. I’m not saying force anything; I’m just telling you to stay ready. You may have found that the most recent partial solar eclipse has either left you tired or left you feeling ready for takeoff! Personally, I’m prepared to outwork all the previous versions of myself and talk some shit, haha. This could be due to Cardi B’s recent album release and the drama surrounding her and the Queen of Rap, Nicki Minaj. Still, the energy of using people’s gossip or their underestimation of you seems like something that we can use as fuel to carry us through to the end of the year. We will have a Full Moon in Aries on October 6th, which encourages us to release stagnant behaviors and take action on the new identity we are meant to adopt, based on what we truly desire. Let’s say you want to be a spiritual baddie, then it should be a no-brainer that you need to make sure the ancestor altar is clean, prayers are done, and the liquid eyeliner is snatched!
To successfully manifest your dream self, you need to look the part, so this would be a good time to refresh your Pinterest boards and take action in embodying what you have been praying for. On October 21st, we will have a New Moon in Libra, asking us to be a good partner to ourselves and to those who support us and our mission. This transformation is bringing in new alliances, but don’t be surprised if you also encounter a couple of haters. Some haters may be people who are not ready for this different version of you or are somewhat fearful of being left behind as you continue to thrive. Also, save the tears and avoid hiding yourself because you have an irrational fear of being unliked. Katt Williams has taught us, “You gotta be grateful, you need haters, wtf is you complaining about, wtf do you think a hater’s job is?!” Remember, we all have a role, focus on playing yours! For this month’s fortunes, we will be using the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck. Please read your fortune based on your Sun and Rising Signs.
October 2025 Central Theme: The Hierophant.
The month of October is asking us to utilize all our resources and gifts to achieve our goals. Whether it is our education, family ties, spiritual gifts, or our social network, we need to leverage God’s blessings to forge a path for ourselves. This could be refreshing to hear if you have found yourself dealing with things that appear to have come in contact with the reset button. The Hierophant also raises the topics of obedience, routine, and faith. If a setback is truly a setup for something better, it’s essential to maintain the right attitude about what is happening in your life. This eclipse has probably shaken up many things for you and done so in a way that makes you feel not only that nothing has gone as planned, but also that you have no choice but to throw up your hands. And whatever you do, please don’t ask me why things have changed. I am not God, but I can tell you one thing for sure: God’s plan is ALWAYS better than our own! If you need to move, do it. If there is no loyalty or sacredness in your connections, shift your focus from who occupies your time. If you’re unsure about the direction to take your career, wait until God reveals further instructions. You see, in moments of uncertainty, we have the opportunity to experience self-realization and carefully assess our blind spots, allowing us to expand truly. For example, if you got a reading where you were told not to speak or communicate with a particular individual by your ancestors, and you decided to do it anyway, regardless of the reason, how do you expect to get the same blessings the same way described in the reading if you chose not to be obedient? You exercised your free will and shifted the paradigm with your actions! The power of being obedient is crucial, especially when seeking opportunities that require a specific mindset or behavior to achieve them. In the book of Samuel, we learn that obedience to God’s orders and taking the mission he has instructed us to take is always a good idea, especially if we do not want to disrespect “the man upstairs.” For October, do the right thing!
Aries Sun & Rising: 3 of Swords; Reversed.
“It’s time for heauxs to gag, I’m putting belt to ass!” I think there have been a few people who have taken you for granted and have not acknowledged just how “cute” you’ve been keeping it lately. For that, you’re doing great, and if you can hold out a tad longer, the drama you may be experiencing at work, with family, or in a social group will come to an end. Now, that does not mean you should not express your frustrations or confusion over a specific matter, but lashing out may prolong these issues, which is not truly necessary. Find positive ways to release, whether it be through exercise, prayer, meditation, or venting to those who provide sound advice.
Taurus Sun & Rising: 7 of Swords.
Remember, in the central theme, when I mentioned that we need to be prepared for what comes our way? Well, that includes our opponents and enemies. Be vigilant when it comes to people who tend to covet things that do not belong to them. Be mindful of people who are asking you to engage in shady dealings or hanging around people who try to get close to you for the sole purpose of just getting information from you. If this is regarding work, don’t be quick to share your ideas or plans with others, even if you think they are “cool.” For more personal and intimate relationships, stand your ground on your boundaries and create distance from those who seem to enjoy violating them too much.
Gemini Sun & Rising: 6 of Swords.
You may be in the process of moving on from a situation or relationship that you have no choice but to leave behind in the past. This can be difficult if you find yourself reflecting non-stop on what could have been, should have been, or have any shame over it. It is obvious that it has served its time, but it is an adjustment to release what was once a daily part of your life. There’s no rush, but you are encouraged to believe in the power of distancing yourself from what is no longer. The 6 of Swords brings the message of releasing any stagnant or negative energy regarding the matter, and look forward to the harmony you’ll have once you make real peace with it.
Cancer Sun & Rising: The Star.
“I am the star in any room that I stand in.” This is a mantra, affirmation, or belief you must have in yourself, no matter what October brings you. This month, you are the HOLY SUPERSTAR. You have served your time being present and providing for others. Which you can still do, but now is the time to truly show why or what it is that makes people cling to you. Humility was the look for last season, and you can take the wisdom from it, but the wardrobe has a tad more red in it for this new season. No worries, everything is love and feels calm. Well, maybe not, as a few haters are feeling somewhat envious of how you’ve been moving lately, but who cares when everyone else has been copying your homework and handing it in?
Leo Sun & Rising: The Sun.
The new horizon you’ve been praying for is here, no, don’t be shy! This month may bring you the achievement that you’ve been hoping for regarding career goals and milestones. Keep in mind that even starting a business in a new city, doing something your family has yet to do, or having faith in yourself after a season of drought, is a major flex that you should be proud of! The Sun tells you to feel the warmth of your blessings, and if you forget what it means to be grateful, pay attention to children. Do you notice how one moment they can feel a way and then the next be so happy? Take notes. It’s time to shine and shed light on what was once hidden or in the dark.
Virgo Sun & Rising: 5 of Swords.
Look back for what? The 5 of Swords brings a message of conflict or loss, but sometimes that’s not always a bad thing. You know, it’s like that annoying “friend” who has been self-centered or transactional that you’re low-key sick of that randomly decides to ghost. You may have questions about what led to the flip, but aren’t you happy?! No shade, but sometimes the trash takes itself out. Please do your best not to question it. If you feel the need to walk away from situations because you value your self-respect, so be it. Let October show you why it is not a priority for you to remain where you no longer want to be, as once the feeling or knowing comes into your orbit, it’s already over.
Libra Sun & Rising: 2 of Cups.
Happy Solar Return, my little balancing act. Things are about to be real sweet this month. Not solely because it is your birthday, but because you may engage in specific projects or with people that make you feel fulfilled, seen, and appreciated. This could be deeply refreshing, as you tend to show up for everyone, and there may be moments when you wonder if the feeling is always mutual. Some of you may consider getting married! Your heart is full in the most profound way, and you may think of rekindling or reconciling connections that have been lost or redirected on your journey until now. However, trust your intuition when it comes to what you allow or accept. Just as they say, “all money ain’t good money,” the same can be applied to people and employers. Stick with what deserves you.
Scorpio Sun & Rising: 4 of Pentacles.
It’s good to be mindful of your money, but remember, you have a relationship with money, just like you would with anyone else. Money is currency, currency is energy, and energy needs to flow. Don’t overthink what money flows in or out. That’s what it’s supposed to do. What must be mastered is where it flows to and finding new ways to bring it in! Instead of commenting on what you need to pay, try saying, “I look forward to when I receive...” When you spend some money, scratch your left hand and ask that the money come back to you tenfold. You’re the CEO of your life; monitor your inventory and ensure you have the right mindset for the abundance you’re looking for, not a broken one. Remember, money never stays with those who are broke!
Sagittarius Sun & Rising: 2 of Swords.
“No small time, no broke boys.” Keep in mind that ‘broke’ is up for interpretation, haha. You can be broke in the pocket or in the mindset. Ironically, both are extremely expensive! There comes a time when things can feel somewhat stale, and when it happens, there’s no need to worry; however, it shouldn’t be a consistent part of the script. Take some time to think about what you are deciding to do, as October is not the time to take action before you have truly weighed all your options. There’s a recurring situation here that will persist if you don’t thoroughly assess who or what has been bringing this energy into your life. A final decision must be made, especially when it involves employment, ownership, or financial gain. Choose wisely and pay attention to what things are genuinely costing you.
Capricorn Sun & Rising: 3 of Pentacles.
Oh, we are getting to work! The 3 of Pentacles is astrologically linked to Mars in Capricorn, Mars’ exaltation. Your confidence should be high, and if not, you’d better learn how to fake it ill you make it! You may notice that your natural swag has people in a chokehold, so imagine what you can do when you continue to grind and thrive! This is a great month to brainstorm ideas for your career and new business ventures, as it could usher in new opportunities with lasting impact. Even though you may have new fans and haters because of this, there’s nothing a few saints and a couple of Psalms cannot solve! Whatever you do, do not let people’s insecurities get in the way of what you came here to do, which is to SLAY!
Aquarius Sun & Rising: King of Swords.
Ambition looks good on you. Seriously, your intellect is mentally stimulating, and if you possess a little spiritual razzle-dazzle, watch how you make people eat out of the palm of your hand! Smart and sexy, you got it, and those around you are intrigued! Or you may meet someone like this who is fine as hell! You know, the kind of fine that makes you want to flirt and step your game up. Some of you may have new opportunities regarding tech, teaching, or research. Whatever it is, if the numbers and dynamics make sense, give it a chance, and you may be pleasantly surprised and satisfied. This is also a great time to date and meet new people or intensify the romance in your relationship. This month, you are the leader in a new story or episode of your life.
Pisces Sun & Rising: 10 of Pentacles.
You and your family may be on the path to achieving your financial dreams. This could be a windfall of money or property inherited, winning the lottery, or a policy that gets cashed out. The vibe is also giving group economics, but done in a way that you can start seeing progressive financials by the end of the year. Some families may deepen their bonds or come to terms with relatives who may not have handled things maturely in the past. There may be friends who transition into a family-like status after receiving a type of support that is typically offered. Elders may have more wisdom to share with those who are willing to listen. Ancestor veneration and work will result in blessings being received and new opportunities being presented.
Medicine Card Fortune for October 2025: Lizard.
The Lizard is reminding us of the power and fortune-telling of our dreams. Dreaming and fantasizing are potent tools for manifesting our future, but they can also serve as a warning or provide insight into people or future events. For example, if you dream of snakes or mice, you may need to be alert around people who are envious of you. Alternatively, you may dream of specific lottery numbers and actually hit the jackpot! Lizard medicine reveals what is unseen in reality and teaches us to trust what is revealed to us. The Lizard is connected to dreamers and helps them master what could be with the proper perspective and by being mindful of what the unseen is bringing up for them. Have you ever met people who are scared of things before anything has even happened? Or the ones who have a nightmare that dictates how they experienced the day when they wake up? Our dreams are meant to serve as a means of seeing into the future and as a guide. Dreaming of an enemy isn’t as bad as being alerted and not doing anything about it in terms of your own actions. The mice and snakes will always be involved in some shape or form, so why not put your power into what you know, rather than in your fear?
I hope you all enjoyed your October 2025 fortunes. This month is a mix of fun and introspection, with real-life situations that require not only our attention but also our confidence and self-assurance.
