After a sparkly jaunt through Pisces' dreamy seas, the moon zooms into bold and boisterous Aries this morning, lighting up everyone's hearts with passion. Both wild-child Uranus and power-hungry Pluto send some supportive lunar vibes shortly thereafter, making this a great day to follow your whims and say yes to whatever sparks your inspiration. A lucky trine with communication planet Mercury in the afternoon brings open-hearted conversations and more clarity around your feelings.

If you've been scrolling Hinge, going out every weekend, and picking up new hobbies, yet still haven't met the perfect partner, it's officially time to turn to the stars. According to astrologers, your birth chart is full of clues that can point you towards the right person - if you know where to look. In a viral TikTok shared Oct. 22, creator and astrologer @kimannieastro said you don't just meet your soul mate by accident.

By now, you've likely read about the weekend jewel heist at the Louvre in Paris, France. In a robbery that seems fit for an Ocean's 8 sequel, four burglars used a crane to break into a second-floor window at 9:30 a.m. Sunday and swiped a bunch of French Crown Jewels-all in just four minutes. They escaped with more than $102 million worth of jewelry and tiaras-on two scooters.

The Six of Swords depicts two tired and downtrodden-looking people being rowed across a body of water by a helpful samaritan. The water behind them is choppy, indicating struggle and hardship - but what lies ahead looks much more serene. Just like the two characters sitting in the boat, you're leaving a difficult situation behind this week when it comes to money, and you can look forward to much more stable circumstances in the near future.

There is much movement taking place in the cosmos this week. As above, so below. It's a week of drawing cycles to a close and starting over smarter, of experiencing surrender and conscious intention, and, ultimately, coming closer to yourself, to what is real, and to the life you choose to create. Your weekly horoscope for October 19-25, 2025, explains where to channel your attention so you can align with the available energies.

How many times do you say "sorry" throughout the day? When you stop to think about it, you might realize the word sneaks into almost every sentence - often without you realizing it. A quick apology might slip out as you reach to grab your coffee in a cafe, and another as you move past someone to squeeze out the door, and then again as a jogger practically runs you over on the sidewalk.

It's officially soup season, and the possibilities are endless. So endless, in fact, that you're probably stuck in crisis mode over what your inaugural soup of the season will be. If you, like me, are panicking over which recipe to make first...why not let the stars decide? Here's the soup (or stew; acknowledging here that they are different) your zodiac sign should be whipping up this fall, whether you're seeking comfort, chaos, or just an excuse to eat bread with a spoon.

Make a sweet playlist, write someone a love letter, or take a walk and let your imagination run wild. An ultra-positive lunar connection to go-getter planet Mars makes the late morning and early afternoon a gorgeous time to make progress on any goals that are close to your heart. If you've had trouble taking tangible action on something you've been fantasizing about, this could be the boost you need to blend your visionary magic with some real-life momentum.

This month's emotional yet resilient energy ushers you through a period of transformation. Messenger Mercury's arrival in perceptive Scorpio on Oct. 6 pulls conversations into deeper territory. You may initially balk at exposing the inner workings of your mind and heart, but vulnerability is the key to strong relationships. That same night, the untamed full moon in Aries dares you to speak your truth - just be mindful not to scorch anyone with your fire.

The mature Capricorn moon collaborates with love-planet Venus, bringing steady and devoted energy to your morning. Express your commitment to a loved one or to seeing a project through to completion. This evening takes a healing tone as the moon aligns with the lunar south node - a mathematical point (not a celestial body) that represents areas for personal growth.

Passion is in the air today as the moon arrives in fierce Scorpio and joins forces with reactive Mars. There's a fine line between assertion and confrontation, and some people could find you too intense today. Read the room, especially when Mars and powerhouse Pluto clash early this morning. Consider taking a softer approach. This afternoon, your thoughtful, intuitive, and nurturing side emerges as the moon harmonizes with devoted Venus.

Boundaries and expectations are blurry today as the Libra Sun sizes up hazy Neptune retrograde. You can't force life to go your way, so if your hopes get dashed, take a step back and ditch the script. There may still be a lingering sense of confusion as midday approaches, but the Moon's compassionate alignment with lucky Jupiter encourages connection, collaboration, and understanding. Reach out to an emotionally intelligent loved one who can offer perspective or reassurance.

A glow-up is when you boost your physical appearance with a trim, new skin care routine, or fresh manicure, but, according to Adama Sesay, a professional astrologer and author at LilithAstrology.com, it also means overhauling your confidence, skills, money, hobbies, and all-around aura. "It's when you have awakened an authentic part of yourself and are more in alignment with who you truly are - increasing your radiance and magnetism due to feeling happier," she tells Bustle.

In the early morning hours, the moon moves into regal Leo, infusing the day with playful and expressive energy. Let your true feelings shine rather than holding back out of fear of being "too much." People will appreciate your passion, confidence, and openness. Plans may be met with delays today as Mercury strikes a frustrating opposition with Saturn retrograde. When communication is slow or you're struggling to make a decision, be patient. Progress happens on its own schedule. For more, check out your tarot reading.

Expect a slow start to your morning as the week begins under the tender Cancer moon, helping you prioritize comfort and your emotional well-being. A few extra minutes under the duvet or a comforting conversation with a loved one could make all the difference. By mid-morning, sparks fly as loving Venus coordinates with diplomatic Mars. Your charm, grace, and lightheartedness will make sure people don't forget your name. But you know what's really memorable? Making people feel seen, appreciated, and uplifted.
