Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
Two planets hit the brakes this weekend, Aries, and your most intimate matters are the backdrop. Mercury spins retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your eighth house of shared resources, joining Venus, who’s been backing up through Scorpio since October 3. They only overlap here for a day, but both planets stay in reverse until November 13, which makes this a rare double review of everything you’ve merged with another person. Train your hawk-eye vision on whatever’s been lurking in the shadows. If anger or jealousy flares, sort out whether your suspicions are grounded or whether you’re projecting. Hold off on signing anything that ties your money to someone else’s, and give any heated exchange a full day before you respond. Then on Sunday, Venus backflips out of Scorpio into Libra and your partnership zone, and the call for conflict resolution gets too loud to ignore. Bring clear-eyed honesty to the table with your S.O. or business collaborator. Peel back a few layers before you decide whether this is a deal breaker or just a bump in the road. Don’t be too quick to bolt.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
It’s relationship review season for Bulls, and the stars have sent reinforcements. Mercury turns retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your seventh house of partnerships, where your ruler Venus has been reversing since October 3. The two share that zone only briefly, but both stay backward until November 13, so expect imbalances in your closest union to become impossible to ignore. Before you blow up, take an honest look. Have you actually spelled out your needs, and are you barking up the right tree? One person can’t be your everything, however much you love them. That’s no excuse for texting your ex, by the way, which will be especially tempting while the love planet is in reverse. Then on Sunday, Venus retrogrades out of Scorpio and into Libra and your wellness zone for the rest of the backspin. Put your yoga mat somewhere you can’t ignore, and return to a routine that’s always worked for you before rather than overhauling your whole regimen now.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
An ounce of prevention is worth three weeks of cure, Gemini. Messenger Mercury goes retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your sixth house of work and wellness, briefly joining Venus, who’s been reversing through Scorpio since October 3. Both planets keep backing up until November 13, so the systems you depend on are likely to scramble at the worst possible moment. Build in more buffer time than you think you need, double-check every appointment before you head out and skip the multitasking entirely. Then Sunday brings a welcome mood shift as Venus slips back into Libra and your fifth house of passion, fashion and fame for the rest of its retrograde. Think of it as a callback on an audition you were sure you bombed, a second chance to revisit a romance or a creative project, and get it right this time. Just don’t commit to anything you can’t undo before November 13, since Venus in reverse has a way of distorting what you actually want.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
Expect a blast from the romantic past this weekend, Crab. Communicator Mercury spins backward Saturday in Scorpio and your fifth house of passion and creativity, where Venus has been retrograde since October 3. Their overlap in this zone is short-lived, but both planets stay in reverse until November 13, which makes this one of the most nostalgic stretches of your year. Things reappear during backspins, so don’t be shocked if a long-lost creative partner or an ex surfaces hoping to pick up where you left off. Whether this person deserves a second chance is entirely your call, but if you’ve got serious doubts, it’s probably not worth getting burned again. Then on Sunday, Venus slips back into Libra and your domestic fourth house. Over the next few weeks, you may be happier entertaining at Chateau Cancer with just your mate or BFF. Resist the urge to meddle in family business and keep the peace at home instead.
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
All is NOT quiet in the Lion’s den this weekend. Communicator Mercury turns retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your fourth house of domestic affairs, where it briefly joins Venus, backing up through Scorpio since October 3. With both planets in reverse until November 13, progress with a roommate or home improvement project could stall or come undone entirely. Someone might renege on an agreement or pick a fight out of nowhere. Hold off on the big decorating purchase or the renovation contract. Then on Sunday, diplomatic Venus nosedives back into Libra and your third house of communication for the remainder of the backspin. Watch what slips out of your mouth, because innocent comments can be misread and one wrong sentence could burn an important bridge. The same goes for anything you post. And if things get snippy with a sibling or neighbor, give it a cooling-off period rather than forcing a fix right now.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
Inoculate yourself against foot-in-mouth disease this week, Virgo. Saturday brings a double whammy as expressive Mercury turns retrograde in Scorpio AND your communication corner, where Venus has been reversing since October 3. Venus only lingers there one more day, but both planets stay backward until November 13, so your words could land sideways AND your usual charm may not bail you out the way it normally does. Choose your words carefully and reflect before you speak, because even then there’s a solid chance you’ll be misconstrued. Stall on major sales calls or brainstorming meetings if you possibly can, and if you can’t, walk in overprepared. Then on Sunday, stylish Venus backspins into Libra and your second house of possessions and values. Your normally impeccable taste could miss the mark by a country mile, so keep your card in your wallet and revisit that purchase once both planets straighten out on the 13th.
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
Double-check those statements and review your receipts, Libra. Errors and glitches get likelier this week as Mercury retrogrades through Scorpio and your second house of finances starting Saturday. Venus, your ruler, has been reversing through that same zone since October 3, and although she exits Sunday, both planets stay in reverse until November 13. With your ruler and the messenger planet backing up simultaneously, money could get particularly funny. Pay close attention and don’t assume everyone is as above-board as you are. Your cash flow could slow to a temporary trickle, which might mean tightening your belt or picking up a seasonal side hustle. Then the mood shifts Sunday, when Venus steals back into your sign for the final three weeks of its retrograde. You may come face to face with the consequences of a recent decision or two. Don’t beat yourself up, though. This is your chance to correct a lapse in judgment, set the record straight and focus on the most important amour of all: self-love.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
It’s deja vu all over again, Scorpio, and this round is personal. Mental Mercury kicks off a three-week retrograde Saturday, backsliding through your sign until November 13, where Venus has been reversing since October 3. For one day, the two planets back up in Scorpio, and everyone’s getting an extended look at the real you—whether you planned on that or not. Think long and hard before posting anything inflammatory or saying something that verges on mean. (Stinger in!) What usually lands as a mic drop could pull the plug on a relationship that matters to you. Check in regularly with your people and assume nothing. Then on Sunday, Venus finally exits your sign and spins back into Libra, where she’ll practice her backstroke through November 13. Use that shift to reconsider a romance you rushed into or a dicey situation you keep sidestepping. Search your heart, just don’t push people so far away that they feel jilted.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
Your arrows point inward this weekend, Archer. Mercury turns retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your introspective twelfth house, where Venus has been reversing since October 3. They share that zone for just a day, but both planets stay in reverse until November 13, pulling you toward the deep end. You could find yourself sinking into a meditative life review or processing heavier emotions like grief and resentment. You’ve got a choice here. Wallow in the old wounds, or let this reflective stretch move you toward closure. Replay the old reels if you must, but write yourself a new ending, one where you walk away confident. Then on Sunday, Venus steals back into Libra and your platonic eleventh house for the rest of the backspin, and you may find yourself teetering on the edge of the friend zone, or gently nudging someone there. Cooling feelings now don’t mean they won’t warm up again later, so don’t write people off prematurely.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
old your fire this weekend, Cap, even the friendly kind. Expressive Mercury turns retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your community-spirited eleventh house, where Venus has been reversing since October 3. With both planets backward until November 13, group dynamics may feel unusually fragile, and your humor could miss its mark and cut someone to the quick. You won’t dodge every skirmish with friends over the next three weeks, but you CAN keep things from skidding out of control by taking a hard look at your own motivation first. Stay alert for uncharacteristic backbiting in your circle, too. When in doubt, sit it out. Then on Sunday, retrograde Venus backs out of Scorpio into Libra and your house of public image. Could your professional presentation use a polish? Like it or not, people judge on appearances, so dress for the job you want even while you’re still paying your dues.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
Ambition interrupted? Communicator Mercury kicks off a three-week retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your tenth house of professional drive, where Venus has been reversing since October 3. Both planets are retrograde until November 13, which can muddle your messaging and your diplomacy at precisely the wrong moment. Without seeing it coming, you could lock horns with an authority figure, an important client or someone you consider a role model. These backspins are like walking an obstacle course, but the trick is refusing to take the misunderstandings personally. Hit pause, look around and consider how to step into your leadership and redirect things. Then on Sunday, diplomatic Venus reverses into Libra and your outspoken ninth house for the duration. Loosen your grip on that truth hammer! Your tactful self may get temporarily replaced by an evil twin who’s a little too quick with a clapback. Don’t torch a bridge you worked hard to build just to land a laugh.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Saturday October 24
Triple-check that itinerary, Pisces. Messenger Mercury turns retrograde Saturday in Scorpio and your ninth house of travel and adventure, where Venus has been backing up since October 3. With both planets in reverse until November 13, signals may scramble around any trip you’ve got on the calendar. Two planets reversing at once makes a strong case for refundable bookings. You might feel like your wings have been clipped or that you’re on an annoyingly short leash, whether that’s coming from work, a relationship or a general sense of stuckness. Use the lull to dig into your research so you can plan your next big move for when both planets straighten out. Then on Sunday, amorous Venus backstrokes into Libra and your eighth house of intense emotions. A thunderbolt of jealousy could strike out of nowhere during this three-week cycle. Don’t let it run the show, but do follow up on any gut feeling that suggests a real reason for distrust. And resist calling that sexy but unstable ex!
