The Monthly Paper

Virgo monthly horoscope

Aug 23 to Sep 22

Words, and then more words

October has had you talking. The Sun in Libra lit up your money corner for the first three weeks, so you spent them working out what things are worth, and Venus moved through your everyday talk corner in Scorpio until October 25. Then Mercury, your ruling planet, turned retrograde on October 24 and took over that same corner. So your month ends with the same message read three times. Mercury and Venus met in Scorpio on October 7, which was a nice day for a kind note. If you sent one, it is still doing its work. Mars in Leo sits in your rest corner, and that explains the odd nights. You have been running on something you have not told anyone about. Mars made a friendly angle to Saturn on October 16, and Saturn is in the part of your chart about what you share, so a private worry got lighter, perhaps without your noticing. Finish October by writing one thing down in pen. Then let the rest be pencil.

Next up: November 2026

Mars is on its way to you

The end of this month belongs to you. On November 25 Mars enters your sign, after a long stay in your rest corner, and you will notice. You will want to clean things. Let that happen. Before it does, you have a slower three weeks. Mercury, your ruling planet, is retrograde in Scorpio until November 13, in your everyday talk corner, so go back over what you said, and to whom. When it goes direct, send the note. Venus turns direct in your money corner on November 14, and a question of what something is worth starts to answer itself. Mars and Jupiter meet in Leo on November 16, out of sight in that rest corner. Good news may come to you privately, or very late at night. The Full Moon in Gemini on November 24 lands in your career corner, so work gets a clear moment too. Expect to be thanked. Try to accept it without correcting anything.
