Horoscope for Wednesday, Oct 28, 2020

Moon Alert

After 3 a.m. Chicago time, there are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Aries.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Mercury retrograde has slipped from Scorpio back into Libra, which places it opposite your sign. This will put you in touch with ex-partners and old friends you haven’t seen for a while. Fortunately, with Venus also in Libra, relations with others are sweet and friendly.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Brace yourself because Mercury retrograde will create delays and silly mistakes at work or with any task that you set for yourself. On the upside, this could be your chance to successfully address a previous health issue. Confusion with pets is likely.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Old flames might be back on the scene for some of you? Others might be in touch with kids they haven’t heard from in a while. Meanwhile, fair Venus has entered a fun part of your chart bringing opportunities for socializing, enjoying sports and fun activities with young people. Yay!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Suddenly, there’s an increased emphasis on home, family and your private life. Relatives you haven’t heard from for a while might be in touch. Many of you might will tackle redecorating projects or do something to make your digs look more cozy.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Transportation delays and confused communications are likely as Mercury retrograde slips back into your house of communications. Fortunately, Venus is also in the picture, and this sweetens your words with everyone. A nice help.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Financial delays, checks that are late in the mail, misplaced or lost items and old money issues are things you’re dealing with right now. However, to offset this, Venus will tend to attract money to you. You win some; you lose some.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

In a curious way, retrograde Mercury has slipped back from Scorpio into your sign, while your ruler Venus has moved forward from Virgo into your sign. They both arrived from different directions! “Let’s party!” Indeed, expect to hear from old friends and contacts.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a powerful week for you. The sun is in your sign boosting your energy and calling attention to you. Meanwhile, both Mercury retrograde and fair Venus are hiding in your chart, boosting your ability to do research or find answers to old questions. How helpful!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Enjoy some quiet time now. This is a good time to do some thinking about what you want for your new year ahead (birthday to birthday). Meanwhile you will also hear from old friends and members of groups you have been out of touch with. This will include creative, artistic people.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Enjoy warm friendships with others as well as members of clubs and groups at this time. Meanwhile, many of you will hear from old bosses from your past or even parents you have been out of touch with because Mercury retrograde has slipped back from Scorpio into Libra, which places it at the top of your chart.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Travel delays plus a desire to travel are a mixed bag for your sign at this time. However, one thing is certain: This is an excellent time to study or to finish an important paper or manuscript because things will flow easily and you will enjoy the work. Bonus!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Suddenly, there are two planets now that will help you to wrap up details with old red-tape issues you have been postponing. This could relate to taxes, debt, shared property, wills, estates and inheritances. Get on it and this work will flow quickly!
