Design: YourTango | Photo: Dean Drobot, CanvaAccording to the weekly love horoscopes for October 5 to 11, 2026, each zodiac sign should get ready for the past to make a comeback this week. This is the first full week of Venus’s retrograde, which usually brings up unresolved issues and endings. Some relationships have a chance to come back together as people from the past return.
Mercury conjuncts Venus on October 6. This is a positive aspect and good for socializing and financial matters, but retrograde Venus likely has a surprise. So prepare for things to turn out differently than you might expect. On October 10, the New Moon falls in Libra, ruled by Venus, so we can expect a week focused on love, money, values, and relationships one way or another.
