The new week that began on October 27 will be an interesting one. We are expecting Lilith, the start of retrograde Mercury, and several days when not all plans will lead to success. Ukrainian astrologer Kateryna Solovyova has prepared a horoscope for the entire week and explained which days are not suitable for important matters.
October 27
"From October 20 to 29, due to the conjunction of Mercury and Mars with the fictitious calculated point called the Black Moon (sometimes referred to as Lilith), which is considered a karmic indicator in a person's horoscope, symbolizing hidden traits, fears, complexes, and anxieties, there may be fateful mistakes, miscalculations, and escalations of conflicts," the astrologer warned.
Therefore, during these days, one should be alert, cautious, and avoid aggression and negativity.
"It's an unfavorable period for starting new ventures, making important decisions, undergoing surgical or dental procedures, or visiting a hair salon. Be vigilant, as fraud and deception are possible. Words carry the greatest power and meaning now. Everything said can manifest in reality," Solovyova explained.
All good wishes can come true. It's helpful to practice speaking, work with speech therapists and voice coaches, eliminate filler words, and develop public speaking skills. It's also a good time to tidy up your home or host guests.
"On October 27, from 2:50 PM to 4:48 PM, the Moon will be in the royal degree of Capricorn. This degree in Capricorn symbolizes honor and respect. It especially influences situations connected with fulfilling tasks and achieving goals," the expert noted.
October 28
An unfavorable period for new ventures and major decisions, as well as for surgical and dental procedures or visiting a hair salon.
"Due to the general energy of the day, avoid starting new activities related to getting a new job, buying or repairing a car or household appliances, taking long trips, overworking, or using a weapon for the first time," Solovyova advised.
"It's easy to complete what has accumulated over the past seven days. It's a good time to reflect, draw conclusions, and set directions for further growth. Follow a diet. Fasting and body cleansing are also possible," she added.
October 29
"It's better not to schedule important negotiations, sign new contracts, buy equipment, go on important business trips, take exams, make essential payments, or sort out relationships with neighbors on this day," Solovyova warned.
After 2:04 PM Kyiv time, a stressful period will begin. According to the astrologer, this is a critical day as the lunar phase changes, and the day's energy may harm people.
"Egoism and pride will lead to bad consequences. Don't show negative emotions. Be attentive to the information you receive. Failures and bad news are possible," the expert said.
October 30
Until 2:24 PM Kyiv time, it will be a stressful period, and the day's energy may negatively affect a person. After that time, vitality may start to surge.
"Direct it toward strengthening family relationships and improving your home. After 2:24 PM, it's a favorable period for new ventures and important decisions, surgical and dental procedures, visiting a hair salon, commerce, financial transactions, major purchases, and marriage registration," the astrologer believes.
It's also a favorable time for those involved in everything related to foreign affairs— foreign languages, international relations, or global cooperation. It's a good day to make peace with someone.
October 31
"Until 2:39 PM Kyiv time, vitality may start to surge. Channel this energy into strengthening family relationships and improving your home. After 2:39 PM, avoid planning major intellectual or physical activities, as it will mark the start of one of the most energetically powerful periods," Solovyova said.
This day heightens women's intuition. Do not argue with women, as this, according to the astrologer, disrupts cosmic laws. It's a good day for cleaning your home.
On October 31, from 08:15 AM to 1:46 PM, the Moon will be void of course. This condition is similar to the effect of retrograde Mercury.
"The usual flow of events is disrupted, wrong choices are made, actions fail to bring desired results, and people may feel confusion, distraction, and futile illusions," the expert reminded.
In addition, from 7:08 PM to 8:54 PM, the Moon will be in the destructive degree of Pisces. This brings tests of strength, endurance, and resilience.
November 1
"The only favorable day in November for new ventures and major decisions, as well as for surgical and dental procedures. After 2:54 PM, it's also a good time for marriage registration. It's an unfavorable period for visiting a hair salon," Solovyova said.
"Until 2:54 PM, avoid scheduling major intellectual or physical activities. Until that time, one of the most energetically powerful periods continues. After 2:54 PM, the energy of love is activated, bringing purification of thoughts and triumph of wisdom over mind and emotions," she added.
Show mercy and compassion, give gifts, engage in charity, fulfill others' requests, and reach out to people around you. Summarize results and let go of negativity.
November 2
"Because of Mercury's shadow retrograde period (from November 2 to 9), do not plan important negotiations, sign new contracts, purchase equipment, go on significant business trips, take exams, make critical payments, or resolve disputes with neighbors on this day," the astrologer warned.
It's an unfavorable period for new ventures and major decisions, surgeries, dental procedures, and visiting a hair salon.
"Avoid strain on the cardiovascular system. This period is characterized by defending justice and combating dark forces. Postpone household cleaning to another day. Refrain from sexual practices," Solovyova also said.
Earlier, we revealed the favorable days of November for each zodiac sign.
