Hello Sweethearts, I am delighted to bring you the October reading for your Virgo Man!
Every month we do these guides, but we also do a very detailed yearly guide packed with interesting information including a yearly overview and a monthly forecast with categories like trends, dating tips romance, marriage, career, finances and “good days”, so please look into our brand new Man series that will be coming soon, but in the meantime, October is set to be a busy month.
Lots of planets are changing signs and Pluto is direct in Capricorn for the last time in our lifetimes. We have the New Moon in Libra which is also very significant as he can be quite romantic and tender, but on the other hand if you push the wrong buttons he can also be very irritable. Be aware that right now he’s more likely to see you as a possession, he resents other men around you and he’s more likely to show a little bit of a jealous streak.
He’s rather resistant to changes as there are emotional blockages right now, so this is not a good time to surprise him or push him into anything brand new.
Mercury enters Libra – 6th October
This is quite a good time for couples who need to have discussions about money and priorities, now this can mean financial priorities but also relationship priorities. So this is an ideal time to just get on the same page and make sure that you are both working together, rather than at cross purposes.
This is also a time to be highly pragmatic about your relationship, you should put illusions aside and focus on what is achievable and most important. Often couples create stress for themselves by procrastinating, so this is a time when you should try to get on top of things because then you free up energy for the important business of relating.
Virgo Man is a planner and he likes to get his ducks in a row, so this is a good time for you guys to have discussions, debates and negotiations and to try and set the tone for what the next few months will be like.
Budgeting can be a big part of this period and I know it’s boring, but if you guys can agree on money, it sometimes helps to make you both feel a little bit more secure and like you know where you stand.
Venus enters Libra – 10th October
This is actually a great time to start getting your Christmas shopping done, now some Virgo Men actually quite like shopping and making lists, so this is a great time to start thinking about what you’re going to be buying close friends, family or the children and get out the catalogues.
If you are dating Virgo Man, this is an ideal time to be getting more familiar with each other, getting to know each other’s likes, dislikes and possibly trying out some new restaurants.
Get to know each other in terms of inviting him home for a coffee and just chilling together. However, it’s key right now to avoid pressure, what you don’t want to be doing is to put him in a tight corner where he feels things have to work out a certain way. So try not to pre-plan your romance too intensively, try and create a conducive ambience and see where it goes, but keep an open mind because he is in a slightly ambivalent frame of mind, so he can quickly get hot, and then cold, and then hot again.
Pluto direct in Capricorn – 11th October
Pluto going direct in Capricorn can mean a critical time for decisions regarding your children or having children, this may be a good time to think about extending your family or beginning a family, however, the issue of children is an important one in your relationship because it could actually be make or break.
So whether you are newly dating or have been dating for a while, it’s time to get to grips with issues regarding children and whether to have them or not. In marriage, it’s important to be decisive in matters regarding your children and to free up time for some adult time. You shouldn’t be totally devoting yourselves to your children at the expense of your sex life.
Mars enters Scorpio – 13th October
This particular transit speeds everything up, so it’s likely that the pace of his life will be quite busy and romance may not be the key thing on his mind. He’s very engaged and competitive at this stage, so that means at work is more eager to reach targets. He’s working very hard and sometimes he can burn out, however intellectually he’s quite competitive as well, so if you guys are working in the same industry or have similar interests he’ll be very keen to chat about events.
However, sometimes he can be a little bit of a know-it-all, he doesn’t like to be told he’s wrong and he can be quite chauvinistic in some of his attitudes. So know when to pull his leg and to lighten the mood because sometimes he can get a little bit too argumentative and his ego attachment with certain ideas can lead to a falling out if you’re not careful.
So this is not a time to try and win arguments at all costs, know when it’s going too far and step away.
He’s rather adventurous and spontaneous, so that makes for great dating experiences, but try and keep your dates rather active because he gets bored very quickly right now.
New Moon – 14th October
The New Moon represents a time when he identifies more strongly with the material realm, so this can mean that he’s more easily turned on through the senses and you can use that to your advantage by using fragrances, new accessories or by using music or interesting textures in the bedroom to arouse him. Things like aromatherapy or using feathers and linen or silk are interesting ways to stimulate his passions. Try giving him massages, foot rubs and other sensual experiences.
On the other hand, because he’s more attached to material objects, he can be a little bit territorial and he’s more likely to get angry if you confront him over issues like money or purchases he’s made, and it’s important to give him his own space and not to touch any of his things or interfere with what he is doing.
Mercury enters Scorpio – 23rd October
This can be quite a busy time for him at work, he may not feel that romantic but what he needs now is to have his interest piqued, so it’s a good time to text him about non-emotional issues, chat about light-hearted subjects or keep up the banter.
