Your Weekly Horoscope: October 12 to 18, 2026

Happy Thanksgiving week! Whether you’re hosting the whole family, packing for the drive south or enjoying a quiet cup of tea by the window, the stars are in a generous mood. Find your sign below.

♈ Aries (March 21 to April 19)

You’ve earned the right to take it easy, so let someone else do the dishes this Thanksgiving. Sit back and enjoy the happy noise. A midweek chat with a younger friend or family member reminds you how much they look up to you. Share one of your best stories. Lucky day: Wednesday.

♉ Taurus (April 20 to May 20)

Comfort is your specialty: a hearty meal, a cozy cardigan, your favourite armchair. Enjoy every bit of it. A neighbour who lives alone would love a plate of leftovers and a friendly visit. You’ll both come away feeling richer for it. Lucky day: Thursday.

♊ Gemini (May 21 to June 20)

The phone is ringing, so pick up! An old school friend or a cousin you haven’t heard from in years has news to share. Your quick wit makes you the star of card night or trivia at the club this week. Keep that sharp mind busy with a new crossword. Lucky day: Tuesday.

♋ Cancer (June 21 to July 22)

Out come the handwritten recipe cards and the old photo albums. The people you love want to hear the stories behind them, so take your time telling them. Consider writing a few memories down this week. They’ll be treasured for years to come. Lucky day: Monday.

♌ Leo (July 23 to August 22)

You were born to make the toast at the head of the table, so stand up and say a few words of thanks. Later in the week, a seniors’ club, community group or Legion event could use your sparkle. Say yes to the invitation and wear something bright. Lucky day: Saturday.

♍ Virgo (August 23 to September 22)

Your famous lists come in handy: tidying up for the season, putting the garden to bed or packing the car for Florida. Just leave a little room for fun. An unplanned drive to see the fall colours turns out to be the best afternoon of your week. Lucky day: Friday.

♎ Libra (September 23 to October 22)

Happy birthday season, Libra! Another year wiser, and it suits you. Gather your favourite people for cake and coffee. If a little disagreement pops up over dinner, your calm, gentle way is just what’s needed to keep the peace. Lucky day: Sunday.

♏ Scorpio (October 23 to November 21)

Your birthday is around the corner and you’re in a thoughtful mood. A long walk by the lake will clear your head. A small mystery, like a misplaced pair of reading glasses or a letter from someone unexpected, gets happily solved by week’s end. Lucky day: Wednesday.

♐ Sagittarius (November 22 to December 21)

The snowbird in you is getting restless! It’s a lucky week to firm up winter plans: book the rental, check your travel papers and call the friends you meet down south every year. If you’re staying home, plan a winter day trip to look forward to. Lucky day: Thursday.

♑ Capricorn (December 22 to January 19)

You spent a lifetime working hard and looking after everyone else. This week, the stars insist you let someone else carve the turkey. A decision about downsizing, a move or a winter trip feels clearer after a good night’s sleep. Trust your years of good sense. Lucky day: Tuesday.

♒ Aquarius (January 20 to February 18)

Retirement gives you time for the causes you care about. A food bank, library or community group would welcome your ideas this week. Try a new class or club, too. You’ll meet someone who shares your interests, and a lovely friendship could follow. Lucky day: Saturday.

♓ Pisces (February 19 to March 20)

Your creative side is shining. Pick up the paintbrush, the knitting needles or the old guitar, and maybe make something for someone you love. Put on a favourite record from your younger days midweek. Someone you haven’t seen in a long while is thinking fondly of you. Lucky day: Friday.
