Time to get spooky! And I’m not just talking about your Pennywise Halloween costume. Let’s talk astrology: This October 31, the Libra Moon squares Pluto in Capricorn, creating intense power struggles and drama, as well as opening communication with the other side. Later in the day, the Moon enters Scorpio, heightening your psychic senses—which will be felt even more deeply when Mercury in Scorpio harmonizes with Neptune Retrograde in Pisces later in the day. Then the New Moon in Scorpio occurs on November 1, the same time as Día De Los Muertos. The spirits will be out and ready to rock and roll!
Read your Halloween horoscope by zodiac sign:
Aries
Your psychic powers are at an all-time high! But before you bust out the pendulum, ask yourself if you’re really ready to gain divine knowledge from the universe. You might want to pass on knowing the future and live without having any esoteric insights. You thrive in love the excitement of following your heart, rather than a plan!
Taurus
You can bond with your boo/crush on Halloween—but only if you put their needs first in an effort to show you care. Consider having their favorite candy in stock or letting them pick the horror movie you watch together. It’s the little things that will make them swoon over you!
Gemini
Don’t get so caught up in office politics that you forget to have fun on Halloween! If a coworker dresses up in the same costume or throws a party without inviting you, laugh about it. The less you take their actions personally, the easier it’ll be to have a positive attitude. Remember, you’re a Gemini, and no one gets you down! Ignore them, post your costume to Instagram, and have fun without them.
Cancer
You’re longing for a romantic Halloween that sweeps you off your feet. The stars won’t disappoint you, but your expectations might. Before planning for a fairy-tale evening, readjust your expectations. It’s Halloween! Save the long-stem roses and carriage rides for Valentine’s Day.
Leo
You know that your energy can light up a room—you’re a Leo! This Halloween, you constantly find yourself center stage. Make sure you aren’t being too selfish and are allowing your besties to have their moment in the spotlight too. Give them compliments for their well-done costumes and don’t try to steal their thunder. Better yet, go all-out on a group costume.
Virgo
You know about every Halloween party on the scene, but you don’t want to attend every single one because you might tire quickly. Although it’ll be hard to pick one event to go to, you will be grateful that you chose not to overextend yourself. After all, you need your beauty sleep!
Libra
Before you start getting caught up in comparing yourself to others, remember that you will always win your own costume contest. Get out of your head!. You are a beautiful and fantastic being who radiates charm and loveliness. You’re a Libra! Replay those affirmations over and over until they sink in instead of the negative words.
Scorpio
A million things might go wrong today. Try not to use this as an excuse to lash out and play tricks on others—particularly your frenemies. Embrace your kinder side this Halloween. Let your crew get a toothache from your sweetness! Allow the cosmic energy to guide you toward your soft era. Choose treats, not tricks.
Sagittarius
The spirits are communicating with you, and they’re being messy. Let them know that you aren’t in the mood in the moment. When you feel like exorcising the discourse, reach out and hold your own seance. Hopefully, you can connect with a family member or ancestor who wants to share goss about your past and your future.
Capricorn
Invite your BFFs over to play Halloween games or just hang out. Sharing laughs and creating memories is the best way for you to celebrate. You’ve been going through a lot lately—even the morning of October 31 brings extra frustrations and stresses. Unwinding with good friends is exactly what you need. Cheers, Capricorn!
Aquarius
You might end up spending a low-key evening at a work happy hour, so try not to overdo it with the shots. You don’t want to make a fool of yourself and regret your actions the next day. Remember, moderation is key. Plus, the hangover will be killer.
Pisces
In typical Pisces form, you’re doing your own thing tonight. A tarot reading might be insightful, but it won’t show anything you don’t already know. Maybe a decadent dinner with exotic flavors will seduce your palate and entice your passions. Whatever you choose to do, enjoy it!
