Astrology Forecast + Major Alignments for October 2017

September 29, 2017

In episode 126 of the podcast astrologers Austin Coppock and Kelly Surtees join the show to talk about the astrological forecast for October of 2017, which includes Jupiter moving into Scorpio, lunations in Aries and Libra, and more.

The show opens with a brief discussion about relocational astrology, which was covered earlier this month in episode 123, and Kelly and Austin share some interesting personal experiences with the subject.

Later in the episode we also feature an auspicious electional chart for the month of October, which is a Venus election with Libra rising and Venus in Libra in the first house.

The artwork for this episode comes from the 2017 Planet Watcher astrology calendar.
