Who says love is only in the air at springtime? There’s plenty of opportunity to be treated to romance in the autumn, too—hayrides, bonfires, tailgating, and the spooky spirits at Halloween.
Even if you’re spending this Halloween inside, there are many opportunities for connecting to a new love in a platonic or romantic way. When the witching hour strikes and the masks come off, will your mate be a match or a monster?
Don’t be scared – let’s take a quick look at the stars to find out!
Jupiter is throwing good energy across the zodiac into your sign; all the same, try not to draw unnecessary attention your way. People like you for who you are, so let that be enough. If you’re already in a relationship, try something a bit outrageous to spice things up a bit. It’s not just trick-or-treaters who can wear costumes to conjure up squeals of delight!
Oh, Taurus, you always do have to try to do things the hard way, don’t you? Never fear. Venus is your ruling planet, and it is also the planet of love! Venus is your friend and will stay your ally throughout this season. This can help you to appear more alluring and attractive to potential partners. Things could get quite deep come mid-November. A friendship could deepen, or a current relationship evolve into the next step of commitment.

Gemini is ruled by Mercury, and when that chappie turns retrograde, we tend to give him a hard time. Mercury will be retrograde for a majority of October. Double-check all your plans so that this trickster doesn’t leave you stranded. Be careful of your words, too, and don’t say what you don’t mean. Try to be patient with the other ghouls and goblins; they may just be having a bad Mercury! If you turn this to your advantage, though, you could have a ‘meeting of the minds’ with someone magical, so don’t let Mercury meddle with your potential for passion!
For you, dear Cancerians, October has probably been a month of reflection, rather than dynamic action.

Venus and the Sun in close quarters mean that love is touching the very essence of who you are.
