If Today is Your Birthday: October Second

Personality Profile for People Born on October 2

The following descriptions reveal some of the characteristics of people who share a birthday—those who are born on October 2nd of any year—based on various methods used in Astrology, Numerology, and Cartomancy. Note that 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 Libra decanate and Capricorn quadrant.

The ruler of your Sun in Libra is Venus. Venus bestows a charming, sometimes indulgent nature, with a love of comfort and peace. Secondary ruler of your quadrant sign is Saturn. Saturn reveals a more deliberate, serious, and responsible side to your nature.

Your Personality Profile:

You thrive on companionship, especially the one-on-one kind. For the most part, you are quite comfortable in a supporting role, and possess an understated charm. Although tactful and caring, you also enjoy displaying your intellect, and there are times when you might try to score intellectual points, and regret it if you’ve hurt someone else’s feelings in the process! The thing is, you accept nothing at face value, and that, combined with your perceptiveness, endows you with a very interesting and intelligent perspective that others respect. You are spiritually inclined, well-respected, and popular.

respectable – companionable – perceptive

Your Sun Sign

Libra is fair-minded, socially aware, and likable. Uncomfortable with anything that throws things out of balance, Libra aims towards harmony and equality. Decisions are often hard to make, and when there are too many of them to make, they can feel drained. Oftentimes they’ll procrastinate so they don’t have to settle on a solution or answer. This is because Libra always sees both sides to any situation. Partnerships are extremely important to Libra–Librans don’t like to go it alone. For the most part, Libra is accommodating and concerned about keeping the peace.

Progressed Sun: Turning Points in Your 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 were 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 were 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 21. The ages of 20 to 22 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 51 . The ages of 50 to 52 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, freer, and decidedly more outgoing. Your desire to learn increases, and your sense of humor is enriched.

Numerology of October 2

You were born on the 2nd day, suggesting that you work very well when you are partnered. You are especially happy and productive when you have a companion at your side, and you love to share with others one-on-one. Factoring in the 10th month of October, you are a number 3, adding a sociable, somewhat restless, and playful side to you. Factoring in your birth year gives your Birth Path Number—a highly personal number for you.

Most Favorable Days of the Month (according to Numerology) are 2, 11, 20, 29, especially when these days (of any month) fall on a Monday, Sunday, or Friday, in that order; and/or when the Sun is in Cancer or Leo. Second-choice favorable days of the month are 1, 7, 10, 16, 19, 25, 28. The best colors for you are all shades of greens, cream, and white. You might want to wear pearls, moonstones, or jade next to your skin. As an emblem of modesty, chastity and purity, the pearl symbolizes love, success, and happiness.

Birthday Forecast for You

2024 is a Number Two year for you. Ruled by the Moon. This is a year of potential companionship. It is a quiet, gentle, and mostly harmonious year that is less active than other years. Instead, you are more responsive to the needs of others. If you are patient and open yourself up in a gentle manner, you will attract both things and people. This is an excellent year in which to build and develop for the future. Advice - be patient, be receptive, enjoy the peace, collect.

 

2025 is a Number Three year for you. Ruled by Jupiter. This is a year of sociability. It is a friendly time, when it is easy to enjoy life and other people. Focus is on personal freedom, reaching out to others, making new friends, and exploration. You are more enthusiastic and ready for adventure. It is likely to be a rather lighthearted year, when opportunities for "play" time are greater than usual. It's also a good year for expressing your creativity. Advice - reach out, but avoid scattering your energies.

On-again, off-again attraction. This is a complex connection, and you make an odd yet interested couple. February 26-March 2, April 28-May 2, August 31-September 4, October 31-November 4

A mysterious attraction that can be very romantic…or completely platonic! This is a spiritual connection that has a magical quality to it. January 11-15, June 15-19, August 8-12, November 20-24

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. March 26-April 4
