SPECIAL | Weekend horoscope for October 3 and 4: do not make that decision yet, one piece is still missing

There are decisions that seem urgent only because we have spent too much time thinking about them. next weekend of October 3 and 4 may prove exactly the opposite. That which demands an immediate answer may actually need a little more time to become clear.

Venus begins its retrograde in Scorpio on Saturday the 3rd and turns attention back to doubts, desires, and matters that we believed were sufficiently considered. It doesn't necessarily mean going back, but rather discovering that the first conclusion may not have been the final one.

On Sunday the 4th, the opposition between the Sun and Saturn may place a limit in front of you that is difficult to ignore. A delay, a change of plans, or even a small refusal may end up revealing something that you would not have seen if everything had gone as you expected.

This is why these two days are not meant for rushing endings. What will be interesting will be to observe what changes when we stop demanding a quick answer and allow a decision to mature a little more.

What to do and what to avoid during next weekend

Pay attention to whatever starts occupying your mind again after several days of silence. If a doubt reappears, it may not need an immediate answer, but rather a better-formulated question.

Be careful about deciding from anger, exhaustion, or the feeling that you are wasting your time. If something can wait until Monday without real consequences, it probably can also wait until you see it more clearly.

Tips for next weekend, according to your Zodiac sign

♈ Aries: shorten a plan before you end up wishing you had not gone

That commitment that you accepted enthusiastically may start to feel like a burden when the moment arrives to leave home. There is no need to cancel it altogether: you can arrive later, leave earlier, or turn it into something much simpler. Aries, next weekend it will suit you to remember that changing the conditions of a plan doesn't mean breaking your word.

♉ Taurus: return to a place and check whether it still means the same

There are places that remain in our memory much better than they exist in reality, Taurus. Go back to that café, street, shop, or corner that you have not visited in a long time and look at it without trying to recover exactly what you felt then. You may discover that what mattered was not the place, but the stage of your life that you had associated with it.

♊ Gemini: give a second chance to something that you abandoned too soon

Before you look for a new distraction, think about some activity that you dropped after trying it only a few times. It may be a book, a recipe, a language, a series, or any hobby that did not manage to engage you at that time. Dedicate an hour to it next weekend and check whether the problem really was that thing or simply that it arrived at the wrong moment.

♋ Cancer: make a plan that doesn't end up turned into a post

For a few hours, Cancer, try to live something without thinking about how you will show it afterward. Let a meal, a walk, or an outing end without photographs, videos, or explanations for other people. It may surprise you how much an experience changes when the silent obligation to document it doesn't exist.

♌ Leo: stop saving something good for an occasion that never arrives

Open your closet and think about how many beautiful things you constantly reserve for "another day," Leo. This Saturday wear that item of clothing, use that perfume, or try on what you bought months ago even if you are only going out to eat or for a walk. Always waiting for a special occasion may cause what is special to end up spending years inside a drawer.

♍ Virgo: fix that small annoyance that you have already normalized

There is no need to reorganize your home or start endless cleaning, you only need to look for something everyday that bothers you every day. It may be a poorly placed lamp, a chair that you always move, an overloaded table, or an object placed in an impractical spot. Changing a single thing may make you notice the extent to which you had unnecessarily gotten used to it.

♎ Libra: meet someone without filling the encounter with activities

This time do not prepare a list of places, plans, and things to do, Libra. Choose one person and share a few hours with that person, leaving room for the meeting to unfold without too much planning. There are relationships that are understood much better when everything that we use to keep ourselves constantly entertained disappears.

♏ Scorpio: try a different version of yourself without turning it into something definitive

With Venus starting to retrograde in your sign, the temptation to suddenly change something visible may appear. Before you make a permanent decision, play with something reversible: a different way of dressing, another hairstyle, or a combination that you would normally never choose. You may not be looking to turn yourself into someone different, Scorpio, but rather to check which parts of yourself you still have not tried.

♐ Sagittarius: do something alone that you would normally do with company

Do not wait for another person to be free on the same day, to want to see the same movie, or to feel like going to the same place. Choose an activity that you would normally reserve to do with company and try it on your own. You may discover that you were postponing something you wanted to do simply because you had decided that it needed company.

♑ Capricorn: leave something unfinished that doesn't need to end up perfect

Sunday may trap you in that uncomfortable moment when something is finished, but you still find small things to improve. Set a limit before you start and respect it even if afterward you keep seeing imperfect details. Capricorn, not everything needs to reach its best version in order to be considered done.

♒ Aquarius: change a routine so small that you had never considered touching it

Do not look for a radical transformation, do something different in an automatic habit. Take another route, have breakfast in a different place, or you can also leave your phone far away while you do something that you normally do while looking at the screen. Aquarius, sometimes a minimal modification is enough to discover how much of our routine we choose and how much we repeat without thinking.

♓ Pisces: listen again to something that you associated with another time in your life

Play that song that you used to listen to constantly years ago, go back to a movie that you knew by heart, or open a book that was linked to a specific stage. Do not try to feel exactly the same as you did then. What will be interesting will be to check what still moves you, what no longer fits you, and which memories appear when you look at it from the present.

Ritual to make the most of Venus retrograde energy during next weekend

Look for three objects that you have kept for a long time and that are linked to different moments in your life. They may be a ticket, a photograph, a letter, a garment, or any keepsake that you still have.

Place them in front of you and think about what each one represents now, not what it represented then. One may still make sense, another may feel irrelevant to you, and another may awaken something that you did not expect.

There is no need to throw anything away or make an immediate decision. The goal is to check whether you are still keeping certain things out of affection, out of habit, or simply because you have never considered what to do with them.

Afterward put them back where they were or change their place if you feel like it. Venus retrograde in Scorpio symbolically favors this type of review: looking again at what is old without needing to go back to it.
