The luckiest day of October 2026 for your zodiac sign has some very nice things in store for you. All of this month’s retrogrades may seem unlucky, but they actually give you an opportunity to notice the beautiful way the universe is working in your favor.
Venus retrograde begins on October 3, the first retrograde to a slower speed in the coming weeks. Fortunately, Venus retrograde is not about problematic scenarios, but you can expect to revisit past situations. You’ll start to understand why once Mercury goes retrograde, also in Scorpio, on October 24. There’s an extra lucky day this month where all each star sign has to do is hold space for what’s coming back for a second chance.

Venus begins its retrograde in Scorpio on October 3, drawing your attention to the divine meaning of events in your life. Scorpio is the harbinger of truth. Venus retrograde here helps you see how even your darkest moments led to your greatest success.
By slowing down and being able to see more clearly how everything was connected, things start to fall into place for you. This renews your hope for the future, Aries. Remember that Venus is the planet that rules money. So chances are the more positive you are, the more it will flow.

Big things will fall into place for you when Juno moves into Aquarius on October 23. This energy aims to help you reach a whole new level of success in your career by encouraging you to embrace innovative and original ideas.
You may also unexpectedly find yourself in a partnership that helps you bring your dreams to life and make them a reality. Make sure you’re open to non-traditional opportunities, Taurus, because you’re about to take a path you’ve never taken before.
Gemini
Design: YourTango
No matter how much you change your mind or feel like you can align with a variety of beliefs and desires, Gemini, that doesn’t mean you don’t have your own values. When Pluto stations heads into Aquarius on October 15, things fall into place as you begin to not only trust your inner truth, but act on it.
Pluto is transforming. In Aquarius in particular, it transforms difficult times into promising new beginnings. But all this will only be found by following the path of your truth. Make sure you have confidence in yourself in the coming weeks and don’t stop yourself from following a path that appeals to your soul.
Cancer
Design: YourTango
You can sometimes be a traditionalist because of your emotional sense of loyalty. However, this does not mean that your destiny will necessarily lie on this path. Juno entering Aquarius makes October 23 a lucky day for you because it frees you from anything that has become too restrictive, including your own beliefs.
Juno governs agreements and partnerships. In Aquarius, this gives you the freedom to create what truly makes you feel alive rather than following plans out of an unfounded sense of loyalty. This is an incredibly liberating time, Cancer. Watch how things fall into place once you truly pursue what you desire most.
Lion
Design: YourTango
A new path is just beginning, Leo. The New Moon in Libra on October 10 is about to change the way you relate to yourself and others. New moons are an important time to set your intentions, but also to realize that you actually have the power to choose to start again.
In Libra especially, this focuses on relationships that you may have been trying to force. Go where the energy flows, not where you feel like you have to hold on or struggle to move forward. Lean into collaborative energy and compromise this month.
Virgin
Design: YourTango
When Venus begins its retrograde on October 3, an important review process in your love life is also taking place. Give yourself time to figure it out, Virgo. While this energy extends far beyond simple matters of the heart, there’s probably something you need to address in your relationship.
You often avoid concluding. Whether it’s because you see a reason to keep certain doors open, closure creates space for new things to fall into place. This retrograde season is about discovering your own truth so you can re-evaluate what you’ve accepted, both spoken and unspoken.
Balance
Design: YourTango
Juno entering Aquarius makes October 23 a lucky day that triggers a period of discovery and joy in your life. This energy can lead to a new relationship or a new level of commitment within an existing connection. While Juno in Aquarius can help you create a relationship that honors your authentic needs, it’s also about giving you the freedom to follow your joy.
While this energy can help build a connection, it can also tear one apart if that’s not where you’re supposed to be. Prioritize your joy and the dreams you have for this phase of your life. Don’t just do what makes the most sense or follow the path others want for you, Libra. Let it be a journey of discovery where you can finally trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
Scorpio
Design: YourTango
Pluto stationing direct in Aquarius on October 15 introduces you to a lucky new phase of freedom and transformation. You are about to embark on a new journey, mentally and physically too.
Don’t underestimate the offers or opportunities available to you during this time, even if you have some fears about leaving your place of residence. You need new experiences to learn who you are and where you want to live. It’s only the beginning, Scorpio, but what you’re about to learn will be invaluable.
Sagittarius
Design: YourTango
On October 24, Mercury retrogrades in Scorpio. It’s actually a lucky day for you because this energy helps you see and feel what you’re trying to avoid. Even if you are comfortable in the realms of adventure and new horizons, sometimes it is the truth within you that matters most.
Mercury retrograde opens a new chapter in your life. But you have to be willing to accept what you discover so that the good things that await you will fall into place. Make sure you let your intuition guide you, not your fears.
Capricorn
Design: YourTango
Your luckiest day arrives when retrograde Venus enters Libra on October 25, marking the start of a crucial period for your career. This energy is intended to bring back a specific job well done or networking opportunity so that you can be fully recognized for your success.
Big things are about to fall into place for you as this energy is known to reward your talents. Even after Venus stations come online in November, it continues to pass through Libra until December 4, making it one of the best and most successful phases of your career all year.
Aquarius
Design: YourTango
Everything starts to change on October 10, when the Libra New Moon brings opportunities for change, growth, abundance, and, of course, luck. This energy is gentle, however, so it will not announce itself loudly or impose itself on your life. But you will feel like everything is suddenly changing.
At first, you won’t know if it’s because your perspective has changed or because certain aspects of your life are finally falling into place. You deserve to be supported in achieving your destiny. Not just by the universe, but also by those who see and appreciate you fully. This New Moon is your chance to finally receive what was always meant for you.
Pisces
Design: YourTango
As Venus begins its retrograde in Scorpio on October 3, you get confirmation that your intuition was really on point. This energy is immensely positive and carries many possibilities for luck, abundance, romance and adventure.
Since this is a demotion, be open to a second chance at something that didn’t work before. What is meant for you comes back. However, you may need to be patient, as this whole matter may not be fully settled until after December 4, when Venus reenters Scorpio after its retrograde.
