A drawer that has been sticking slides open easily, or a conversation with family feels less loaded than it has in months. The week opens with the Moon in your fourth house on Monday, bringing ease where there has been friction. Saturn, Neptune and Chiron are all retrograde in the same territory, asking you to revisit what home and belonging mean, but the Moon's sextile to the North Node suggests that something about this work is aligning with where you are headed. The ground beneath you is shifting, but not everything that shifts is collapse.
Mars moves into your eighth house on Monday, lighting up shared resources and intimacy for the weeks ahead. Money that is not entirely yours, or closeness that asks for honesty, comes into sharper focus. Mercury moves into your eleventh house on Wednesday, turning your attention toward friendships and group projects, but not before it opposes Chiron the same day. A conversation about what you need, or what you are owed, may surface an old wound. Say it anyway.
Venus turns retrograde in your eleventh house on Saturday, the same day as the last quarter Moon. Friendships, collaborations and the hopes you have pinned to other people are up for review. Someone you thought was solid may feel less certain, or a plan you were counting on stalls. This is not abandonment; it is recalibration. Venus will be retrograde until mid-November, so let this be the beginning of a longer reckoning rather than a crisis to solve this week.
Hold onto this: the fourth house work is not punishment. It is the foundation everything else will rest on.
