Full Moon in Taurus: Could these 5 zodiac signs finally catch a break? Here’s how career and romance are in focus between October 26-November 1

The lamps have burnt out, and the house is quieter. Monday opens with the Libra New Moon, as the Moon stays joined with the Sun in the sign of the scales. A new lunar month begins. This is the moment to set intentions, especially about who you work with and how you share money.

A new lunar cycle carries seed energy. Whatever is started in thought today tends to grow over the next four weeks. Libra adds a focus on fairness and cooperation. People may feel ready to repair a strained friendship or rethink a one-sided business arrangement.Monday is ruled by the Moon, which amplifies feelings. Write down two or three goals for the coming month while the mind is still calm after the festival. Keep them simple and realistic.

Libra rules marriage, contracts and long-term partners. After the Diwali noise, couples may finally have time to talk. A misunderstanding from the festival week can be cleared with a calm conversation over morning tea.Business partners can also review roles. Who handled extra work during the season? Who carried more cost? Bringing this up gently now prevents resentment later.

Mercury remains retrograde in Libra and is close to turning direct.

That makes this New Moon better for research than for signatures. Draft the proposal, compare quotations and list questions for the other side. But hold off on final agreements for a few more days.Many traders begin fresh accounts after Diwali. Opening a new ledger is fine. Locking in a long-term supplier contract can wait until Mercury moves forward.

Diwali bills often arrive in the following week. Credit card statements, gift returns and pending payments to the caterer or decorator all need attention. Libra’s balance reminds you to restore order to the household budget.Venus, Libra's ruler, still sits retrograde in Virgo. That favours trimming waste rather than adding new comforts. Cancel a subscription that went unused. Return items bought on impulse if the return window is still open.

Libra begins its personal new year. Fresh goals about health and self-image will stick better if started quietly, without announcing them.Aries may see a fresh start in marriage or a business partnership. Discuss shared plans openly.Cancer could plan home repairs or a family move. Get estimates before committing.Capricorn may receive a new responsibility at work. Accept it, but ask about support and resources.Gemini and Aquarius benefit in learning and travel. Aquarius might begin a certification course.Leo can strengthen ties with siblings and cousins. Sagittarius may reconnect with a friend after a long gap.Taurus should start a better health routine after festive overeating. Virgo should clear small debts gathered during the shopping week.Scorpio may feel tired and should rest. Pisces may need to address joint finances or insurance papers.

Love: Couples can make a small promise for the month ahead, such as one quiet dinner together each week. Single people may feel ready for a serious relationship. Begin with honest conversation, not grand plans.Career: Use the day to set targets for November and December. Meet partners or clients informally. Avoid finalising contracts until Mercury turns direct.Money: Add up all Diwali spending today. Pay the highest-interest dues first. Set a modest savings target for the new lunar month and move that amount aside before any new purchase.
