Aquarius Monthly Career Horoscope

October 2026

At the same time that things are toning down on the job front, it is building on the career front to a point where they are more evenly balanced, while at the same time there is a growing link and similarities between the two. It was in the final days of September that Mars, the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos left your work sector, but not before spending seven weeks fuelling your work passions, fighting and competitive spirit in what can be the busiest weeks of any year. While Mars only returned in August, he was one of a continuous line of planetary activity stretching all the way back to Jupiter's return in May 2025. Mars' departure on 28th September should have brought all planetary activity on the job front for the year to a close but instead, the dwarf planet Ceres is not only staying on to continue her deep dive into your wants, needs and priorities, but she is set to have a lot to do with Venus and Mercury in your career sector. In the meantime, by the time you move into the new month, Venus is three weeks into what is usually a 24 day mission to fuel your professional confidence, attract opportunities and steer things in a lucrative direction. Venus should be getting ready to leave when on 1st October, Mercury returns for what should be a 14 to 15 day chance to get your head in the game. Instead, on 3rd October Venus will turn retrograde, something that will keep her here until 25th October, before returning in December to end the year here. Meanwhile, by the time he returns, Mercury is already slowing down and on 24th October he will turn retrograde as well, something that will keep him here until 6th December. With Venus returning on 4th December, he will keep the seat warm until she returns. At the same time Ceres, who should be leaving your work sector next month is doing the same and is slowing ahead of a retrograde turn next month that will keep her here until May 2027. By the time the Sun returns to your career sector on 23rd October, both new and old doors will be opening, while the whole month is awash with potential on the job and career fronts.
