Your weekly horoscope. September 29 to October 5, 2025

This week will be a blissful change of pace compared to the previous seven days. But it doesn’t mean it’s going to be short on potent events that might alter the course of your life for the next few years. 

The week will kick off with a First Quarter Moon in Capricorn, bringing your attention to an overlooked tension between your professional ambitions and personal needs. This will be quite a push to grow and take charge of your life. And before you know it, the Universe will prank you with a Mercury-Jupiter square, tempting you to overpromise and overestimate. So here is the question this peculiar week begs: Can you balance Capricorn’s realism with Jupiter’s optimism? Let’s see. 

On September 29, the First Quarter Moon in Capricorn will pull up a chair, sit opposite you, and look you square in the eyes. “Are you ready to push through the obstacles?” it’ll ask. Rise up to the challenge to appease the celestial goat. Don’t be phased by practical limitations, restrictive authority figures, and the fear of failure. Take practical steps toward your goals every day. Capricorn Moon will nod approvingly. 

On October 1, Mercury will form a square with Jupiter. If the First Quarter Moon exposed a gap between your ambitions and limitations, this aspect will singlehandedly **create** a gap between what you say and what is actually feasible. So watch your words to catch exaggerations and diplomatic missteps before they even form. You’d also be wise to refrain from signing contracts and sealing deals on this day. 

While sure, not as saturated as the previous week, this 7-day span has quite a few potent lessons for you. First off, your ambition requires action, not just talk. Second, watch the aforementioned talk - think before you pledge.
