Your Halloween costume based on your sign
Words by Ambar Ramirez & Carmen Macri
Aries
Mars, your ruling planet, will encourage you to take action, but it’s essential to balance assertiveness with diplomacy, especially around the 14th when the solar eclipse in Libra could bring a shake-up to your relationships. It’s a good time to clarify what you want from others and set healthy boundaries.

Taurus
Success awaits you this month, Taurus. It’s time to get out of your shell and what better way to step back into society than with a costume that exudes your strong-willed energy. While you do have a strong connection to nature and may find yourself leaning towards more earth-related costumes like a fairy, why not tap more into your ruling planet Venus with luxury and glamour. Think glitzy disco, “Saturday Night Fever,” Cher. Catch our drift?

Gemini
Maybe the stars don’t always have an answer for you, Gemini. Sometimes you need to make a decision on your own without galactic interference. That being said, the fall equinox falls in your fifth house of creativity and joy, meaning ’tis the season for self-expression and embracement!

Cancer
You’re experiencing a dramatic shift in the way you view life, Cancer. Everything you thought to be true is turning out to be a lie. Black is white and white is black. The beautiful thing about life though is that you are the maker of your own reality. Not everything has to be black or white; it can be pink. Which is why for Halloween we couldn’t think of a better costume than the queen of reality shifts herself, Barbie. Or Ken for all you real-life Kens out there.

Leo
The solar eclipse on Oct. 14 in Libra might bring sudden changes to your daily routine or spark new ideas. This could be a time to embrace learning or start a new project, as your curiosity will be at its peak. Mars will push you to be more assertive in your home life, so don’t be surprised if you feel the urge to tackle domestic projects or resolve family issues. The eclipse energy could stir things up, but it’s also a chance to find balance in your home and work life.

Virgo
You’re a practical and well-organized individual, Virgo. And with your ruling planet Mercury highlighting your 2nd house of money and work this month, you’ll be on your own personal cloud 9. That said, people commonly get blinded by love while you get blinded by money. Try and find new ways to enrich your life that don’t involve filling your wallet.

Libra
Happy solar return, Libra! With a solar eclipse falling in your sign on Oct. 2, expect a huge shift in your personal life this season. It’s a time of endings and new beginnings. And while this change could be as simple as a change in your daily routine, it wouldn’t be a true Libra season without some romance … or heartache.
Halloween Costume: Vampire
Scorpio
As Mars, your ruling planet, enters Scorpio later in the month, you’ll feel an energy boost, becoming more confident and driven. This shift will empower you to take decisive action in both personal and professional matters. You’ll likely feel more in control and ready to make significant moves, especially around Oct. 28, when a lunar eclipse in Taurus affects your partnership sector.
Halloween Costume: Cupid
Sagittarius
When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade … at least that’s how the saying usually goes, but for you Sagittarius, when life gives you lemons you keep some for yourself and plant the seeds for a lemon tree. This month you will reach new heights within your personal life and relationships. With your ruling planet Jupiter going retrograde on Oct. 9, expect a whole lot of thinking and journaling.
Halloween Costume: Pirate
Capricorn
Mars will be pushing you to step up in your social circles or within a group setting. You may feel more motivated to lead or collaborate, especially on projects that align with your long-term visions. However, be mindful of balancing assertiveness with cooperation, as tensions could arise if you push too hard.
Halloween Costume: Frankenstein or the Bride of Frankenstein
Aquarius
You’re a sponge, Aquarius, absorbing and learning from everything around you. With some major lunar events this month, including a solar eclipse, a blank piece of paper could inspire you. Just know that creative energy is still energy, so make sure you create in moderation or another burnout will be in your future.
Halloween Costume: The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Pisces
It’s a powerful time for letting go of old habits, fears, or even toxic dynamics. Toward the end of the month, Venus in Virgo will enhance your relationships, especially romantic or close partnerships. You may experience deeper emotional bonds or find new ways to collaborate harmoniously with others. Venus will also help smooth over any tensions, making this a great time to strengthen connections or settle disputes.
