October 18 Birthday Astrology Profile

If Today is Your Birthday: October 18

Personality Profile for People Born on October 18

The following descriptions reveal some of the characteristics of people who share a birthday—those who are born on October 18th of any year—based on various methods used in Astrology and Numerology. Both Astrology and Numerology reveal much more depth when a birth year, and in the case of the former, a birth time and place are included.

The Astrology & Numerology of your Birthday

Your Sun is in Libra in the Gemini decanate and the Cancer quadrant.

The ruler of your Sun is Venus. Secondary rulers of your decanate and quadrant signs are Mercury and the Moon, respectively.

You are a very fair person who is also determined and hard-working. Success usually doesn't come at a young age, but it does after some early setbacks--and from your own doing. You are a leader and a visionary. You have your feet on the ground, but you are willing to look beyond what is right in front of you. You may have some troubles with people who deceive you. Although you possess an unusually strong ability to understand human nature, when you are personally involved, you tend to believe what you want to believe. Your intellect is sharp. When an important decision has to be made, you listen to others, process the information, and then follow your intuition.

Progressed Sun: Turning Points in the Life

We carry our Sun sign with us throughout our entire lives. If I'm a Libra, I'll always be a Libra. However, in secondary progressions, the Sun "progresses" in a symbolic sense through our natal Sun sign, and then beyond it to subsequent signs. Secondary progressions are "a day for a year", and because the Sun moves just under one degree per day, our Sun symbolically progresses just short of one degree every year of our lives. Because there are 30 degrees for every sign, if I was born in the latter days of a Libra Sun, my Sun would progress to the sign of Scorpio in my early childhood, and to the sign of Sagittarius in my early to mid-30's. If I was born near the beginning of a Libra Sun, however, my progressed Sun would enter Scorpio close to my 30th birthday, and to Sagittarius in my late 50's. The changeover of signs marks a critical turning point in a person's life. At the very end of a sign (just before changing signs), individuals may make life-changing, impulsive decisions.

Your progressed Sun enters Scorpio at age 5. The ages of 4 to 6 mark a critical turning point in the development of your personality. Circumstances are such that you develop a slightly thicker skin. You become more passionate and have less of a need to rely on others for support, and your power to make decisions improves.

Your progressed Sun enters Sagittarius at age 35. The ages of 34 to 36 mark a critical turning point in the development of your personality. After some sort of crisis of consciousness, and perhaps elimination of circumstances that have been limiting your growth, you begin to feel lighter, more free, and decidedly more outgoing. Your desire to learn increases, and your sense of humor is enriched.

Your progressed Sun enters Capricorn at age 64. The ages of 63 to 65 mark a critical turning point in the development of your personality. You become more practical and concerned about your personal security.

Degree Meanings of your Sun:

Sabian Symbol:

Sabian symbols present imagery associated with the degree of your Sun in Libra. Either of the following may apply, depending on the exact degree of your Sun:

If Sun is 24-25 degrees Libra:

"The Sight Of An Autumn Leaf Brings To A Pilgrim The Sudden Revelation Of The
Mystery Of Life And Death"

If Sun is 25-26 degrees Libra:

"An Eagle And A Large White Dove Change Into Each Other"

Harmonic Degree Meaning:

The following is the degree meaning of your Sun (25 degrees Libra) based on harmonic sign influences.*

"Kind, noble, generous. Excellent leadership qualities. Strong-willed and energetic.
Successful in business pursuits. Rich taste."

Numerology of October 18

You were born on the 18th day, which reduces to a 9. You help others solve problems, even when you don't have answers for your own predicaments! Factoring in the 10th month of October, you are a number 1. Although you love people and you are a true humanitarian, you know how to stand on your own two feet and you don't appreciate being told what to do. You are a born leader of some kind. Believe in yourself and have faith in yourself. Factoring in your birth year gives you your Birth Path Number—a highly personal number for you. Find out how to determine this number here.

Birthday Forecast for You

2005 is, and has been, a Number Eight year for you. Ruled by Saturn. This is a year of power and accomplishment. Actively seeking to expand, taking educated risks, and moving forward are highlighted. This is a year of opportunity, particularly in the material and business world, and opportunities need to be seized. It's generally not a year to find a new love partner, simply because the focus is on the material world and your place in the world. Advice - take action, plan ahead, seize opportunities.

2006 is a Number Nine year for you. Ruled by Mars. This is a year of completion and transition. It is a time when we need to let go of things that no longer serve their purpose, and hold on to things that have a future. It can be a time when a burden has been taken off your shoulders, and it can be a year of giving of yourself. Advice - let go of things that are holding you back, give of yourself and express your sympathetic, compassionate side.

You Are Drawn to People Born on...

Easy, subtle attraction and harmony: You don't feel an irresistible pull towards each other, but over time, appreciate the peace you have between you. These people are good for you, although they might not challenge you to grow.

February 9-19, June 11-21, August 14-21, December 14-21

On-again, off-again attraction. This is a complex connection, and you make an odd yet interested couple.

March 14-18, May 14-18, September 16-20, November 16-20

A mysterious attraction that can be very romantic...or completely platonic! This is a spiritual connection that has a magical quality to it.

January 27-31, July 1-5, August 24-28, December 6-10

Opposites attract. Push me, pull me. You could complement each other well if you allow yourselves to learn from each other, or you could actively war against each other.

April 10-20

Attraction of the soul; challenging, intense, rich, and binding.

September 5-9, November 26-30

Powerful, tumultuous attraction--you are aware of the distinct differences between you, but may be drawn to each other because of the simultaneous awareness of a need and a lack. Either the relationship is ongoing and obviously tumultuous and of a "love-hate" nature, or it flows well until it breaks unexpectedly.
