The week of October 5–11, 2026, is under the influence of the retrograde Venus astrological cycle, which lasts until November 14. Astrologer Kateryna Solovyova emphasizes that this time requires special attention to financial matters, personal relationships, and creative endeavors. During this period, it is not recommended to make major purchases, change your image, or make life-changing decisions in your personal life, as the planet's energy triggers a reassessment of past experiences.
Astrological Recommendations by Day
The beginning of the week is characterized by an unfavorable backdrop for any new initiatives. Special attention should be paid to October 5, when between 17:23 and 19:06, the Moon will be in a "destructive degree" of Leo, requiring extreme restraint. Tuesday, October 6, will be a day for overcoming fears, but because the Moon will be "void-of-course" after 13:22, any new beginnings will be ineffective.
Wednesday and Thursday: Working with Space
Mid-week, according to the forecast, is best suited for intellectual labor and creativity. On Wednesday, it is important to be vigilant regarding incoming information to avoid fraud. Thursday will be marked by a "void-of-course" Moon throughout the day, making it unsuitable for changing jobs or legal procedures, yet this time is excellent for home repairs and reorganization of living space.
End of the Week and New Moon
Friday promises to be a stressful day with the need to close all current tasks, especially considering the negative impact of the "destructive degree" of Libra in the morning hours. The culmination of the period will be Saturday, October 10, when at 18:50 the New Moon in the sign of Libra will occur. This time focuses on diplomacy, harmony, and partnerships, but the expert advises against active undertakings and suggests dedicating the evening to routine work.
Contradictory Data
There are differences in the interpretation of the New Moon's influence across various astrological schools. While Kateryna Solovyova calls for maximum caution and routine work on Saturday, other expert sources note the possibility of productive negotiations if thorough preliminary preparations are made. The gap between Western and Eastern astrological schools creates some variability in interpreting Venus's influence on financial transactions during this period.
