The loss of someone close to you, a grandparent perhaps, have put a sudden end to all your recent partying and socializing. Now is a moment for quietude and introspection. Take comfort in spirituality or the visions of dreams. Avoid destructive thoughts of actions. Self care is important. This is an ideal time to revive old friendships. You may feel a strong desire to be part of a social group. Be more outgoing and expressive. Reach out to old friends and to relatives. Try to put others' needs before your own. It will help you feel more connected and in touch with those around you.

After ten frustrating days of expressive Mercury being retrograde in your foggy twelfth house, the communication planet backspins into Scorpio and your eleventh house of technology and teamwork until November 29. For the second half of the retrograde, be prepared for PMs to get lost in spam folders, posts to get shadowbanned and messages to get misconstrued. Follow up on all important communications and confirm appointments. But you can also use this “retro” time to back up your systems, upgrade your cloud storage and, if you haven’t changed your passwords in a while, create super-strong new ones.
