Welcome To The Metalhead Horoscope Halloween Edition
The weekly Metalhead Horoscope has Scorpio season officially rolling in like stage fog, smelling faintly of grave dirt and guitar cables. The sun’s sliding toward winter, the veil’s thin, and the air hums with ghosts, feedback, and questionable costumes. This week is for transformatio death metal style.
Mourn what’s gone, blast what’s still kicking, and dress like your shadow self. Mercury’s drunk on Sagittarius fire midweek, so expect oversharing, unfiltered truths, and maybe a text you’ll regret but secretly stand by. Halloween lands Friday, so sharpen your eyeliner, pick your poison, and let chaos soundcheck the night.
Aries (March 21–April 19)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. Mercury’s growling too loudly in Sagittarius, so watch your vocals. You’re usually the first to jump into the pit, but maybe don’t headbang your opinions into the group chat this week.
Channel that fire into creating something instead. Maybe riffs, travel plans, or a wild new tattoo design. You’re in a period of recognition, restlessness, and rekindled romance
Team up for Halloween, dynamic duos hit harder. Find someone who can match your chaos energy and go full costume collab. Think Lemmy and whiskey, corpse paint and candlelight.
You’ve been bottling rage like fine wine. Time to uncork it. Every riff is a rep; every scream a sermon. Burn calories, bridges, or both.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Soulfly – No Pain = No Power
Taurus (April 20–May 20)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. Spooky season is here so plan a romantic dinner out and maybe a live local metal band with your new romantic partner. Single? You’re sentimental, but even vintage vinyl can warp.
Time to let an old love track fade out. Free some space on the playlist for someone new, maybe tall, dark, and smells faintly of stage smoke and incense. Halloween’s your permission slip to be decadent. Indulge in good food, better lighting, and a costume that says “sin but make it fashionable.
You say you hate change, but chaos loves you anyway. Stop pretending you’re chill and summon that inner beast and let it throw furniture.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: The Acacia Strain – Acolyte of the One
Gemini (May 21–June 21)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. Mercury, your twin-tongued tour manager has kicked down the door to Sagittarius, and suddenly you’re the loudest voice in every green room. Your words slice like tremolo picked riffs, fast, clever, a little unhinged.
Just be careful, retrograde’s lurking backstage with a grin, ready to make your tweets immortal for all the wrong reasons.
Show up at the party dressed as the duality you are, half corpse paint, half office attire. A walking contradiction in leather and sarcasm. Pay tribute to the ghosts you’ve outgrown, bands, lovers, bad habits and raise a glass to how far you’ve clawed out of your own grave.
Dual nature, dual-wielding microphones. One side flatters, the other corrupts. This week: talk less, growl more.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Ingested – Nefarious Tongues
Also out now: Mastiff – For All the Dead Dreams: EP Revie
Cancer (June 22–July 22)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. Spooky season hits like a doom metal ballad. Slow, emotional, and heavy as hell. Scorpio’s your water sign sibling, so the vibe’s right in your bloodstream full if nostalgia, obsession, and the quiet pull toward the past. You’ve been haunted lately, not by ghosts, but by memories that won’t stop replaying like a broken record. This week, either remaster them or smash the vinyl.
Mercury’s plugging into your creative amp, so pick up the pen, the brush, or the damn guitar and make something sacred out of your grief. Host a séance jam session with candles, distortion and feelings you’d rather not name. You’re not soft, you’re just tuned to frequencies most people can’t handle.
Halloween’s your time to shed the human skin and emerge as the spirit animal you’ve always been, equal parts empathy and exorcism.
You’ve been looping heartbreaks like a cursed playlist. Hit skip. You’re not a ghost, you’re the thunder that scares them.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Mammoth – Same Old Song
Leo (July 23–August 22)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. You were born for the stage, not the sidelines, and Halloween is your high holy day. The moon’s lighting your fourth house of home, roots, the echo chamber of your own legend. So build an altar to yourself and invite everyone over. Turn the living room into a ritual pit with candles, smoke machine and a metal playlist.
Mercury storms into fellow fire sign Sagittarius midweek, igniting your creative core. Ideas strike like power chords; you can’t tell if it’s genius or mania, so you record both. Don’t waste the voltage chasing validation, command it. You’re not looking for applause; you’re summoning it.
By Friday night, wear something that would make the devil blush and your neighbors file noise complaints. Perform as if the world ends at midnight because it kind of does, every night.
Everyone’s watching. Good, now give them a reason. Confidence is your blood type; strut like your ego is a power chord.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Puscifer – Self Evident
Virgo (August 23–September 22)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. You’ve spent the year cleaning up other people’s chaos, sharpening every edge until it gleams. But this week? The stars say burn your old sheet music and dance in the ashes. Scorpio season cracks open your pit with your crew, the late-night metalheads who like to stay up late discussing music. You’ve earned a little debauchery disguised as enlightenment.
Mercury storms into your home zone midweek, so your mind’s building shrines out of memories and relics. Don’t analyze them to death. Light a candle, raise a glass, and let the ghosts of your past lives join the afterparty.
Halloween’s your cue to drop the mask of control and wear one that actually scares people. Something primal. Something that says, I’ve done my shadow work and I brought notes.
You can’t plan your way out of the pit. Sometimes perfection is found mid-breakdown. Loosen your jaw, headbang through the anxiety.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: The Halo Effect – Dance With the Devil
Libra (September 23–October 23
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. You rule beauty, but even beauty decays and that’s where the real music lives. Venus is still moshing in your sign, turning every reflection into a temptation, every costume into confession. You’ve been trying to keep the peace, but the scales are hungry now. They want imbalance and blood.
Halloween crowns you in velvet and chaos. Pair up if you must, you do love a duet but choose a partner who can match your voltage. You’re not going for “cute couple.” You’re going for “funeral doom of the gods, open bar.”
Friday Mercury’s slide into Sagittarius igniting your curiosity like a blowtorch. Less clean vocals and more guttersl screams. This is your week to weaponize metal amd turn dull into something that slaps.
Charm is your armor, denial your weapon. This week, even your mirror is flirting with you. Just remember, self reflection isn’t sexting.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Foo Fighters – Asking for a Friend
Scorpio (October 24–November 21)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. Your season has peaked, and the veil’s thinner than a used bass string at 3 a.m. You are the current now, what everyone else calls “spooky,” you call “Today.” Death, transformation, obsession it’s all just a regular day to you.
This week, Mercury crawls out of the wall of death into Sagittarius, dragging a few secrets with it. If you’ve been brooding over a song, it’s time to perform it. Just don’t let anyone put you down, your darkness is the fertilizer for your creativity.
Halloween is your cathedral. Host the party, dim the lights, and let the metal summon whoever still lingers in your orbit. Don’t fear intensity; you are intensity. Headbang tbrough it and throw the devil horns!
Your loyalty is inked in plasma. You don’t do half-measures, you do blood pacts. Just make sure it’s mutual before you sign in screa
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Adept – Blood Covenant
“If Scorpio season’s got you feeling feral, you might want to consult our infamous Metal Sex Playlist.”
Sagittarius (November 22–December 21)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. Mercury kicks open the door to your sign midweek, whiskey-breathed, truth drunk, and spoiling for a revelation.
Suddenly everyone wants to hear your version of the song which is dangerous, because you’ve got the riffs. Shred your tunes but remember, not everyone will appreciate your music.
You’re writing new songs right now, and they’re loud, fast, unedited. Think debut demo recorded in one take, rough but real. Don’t polish it yet; let it bleed a little.
Halloween is your myth in motion. Go as the creature you secretly believe you are centaur, fallen angel, outlaw saint. Something that can’t be explained, only witnessed.
You joke your way through pain, philosopher of carnage. The universe keeps throwing punches just to see if you’ll laugh again and you will.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Abysmal Dawn – Cradle of Affliction
Capricorn (December 22–January 19)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. Halloween’s crawling through your social veins, and even you, the zodiac’s workhorse, the stoic beast of burden needs to howl with the pack once in a while.
The theme this week is connection, not control. Let the mask slip. Let the eyeliner run. Speak with the living, toast the dead, and remind yourself that even ambition needs an audience.
Mercury’s moving through your dream sector, stirring the ghosts of ideas you buried under deadlines. One of them still breathes. Dig it up, clean off the dirt, and give it form again.
If you want to recite Poe’s The Raven, do it loud enough for the underworld to take notes. You’re not mourning decay you’re headbanging along side it.
You build empires from ashes, then critique the architecture. This week, stop grinding for once. Even mountain goats need to scream.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Conjurer – All Apart
Aquarius (January 20–February 18
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. You’re the weirdo visionary of the zodiac. The person in the battle vest at the metal festival while everyone else is moshing to nostalgia. Mercury kicks open your social gates this week, and suddenly you’re the hub. Everyone wants a piece of your weird genius. You’re music is two steps into the future already.
Halloween lights up your public image, so make it loud. Your costume should start debates: corpse paint at the grocery store, a halo of feedback, or something that looks like it crawled out of a concept album.
You’re not here to blend in, you’re here to remind people that rebellion doesn’t have to look the same every decade. Raise a glass to the outsiders, the noise makers, the freaks who kept metal alive through the silence.
Rebellion’s in your DNA, but sometimes freedom means cleaning up your own beautiful mess. Reinvent yourself, but keep the distortion cranked.
Your Lucky Song of The Week: Stellar Circuits – Bury The Ashes
Pisces (February 19–March 20)
Your weekly Metalhead Horoscope. You’re the dreamer of the pit. The one who closes their eyes during a solo because you’re actually somewhere else. This week, Mercury climbs into your professional arena like a drunk sound tech yelling, “Check one-two,” and suddenly everyone’s hearing you loud and clear.
Use it. Promote your art, your band, your weird side project about ghosts and distortion. Don’t downplay your vision, scream it into being. Scorpio season’s making you sentimental, but not soft.
Halloween drags your shadow to the front row. Dress for it. Think doom metal, funeral chic, or that one fan who shows up covered in candle wax and fake blood. The one everyone secretly wishes they had the guts to be.
Melancholy’s your muse, and she’s humming in minor chords. Let the sadness sing, turn it into art before it devours you whole.

Scorpio season doesn’t whisper, it roars through tube amps and fog machines. Every sign’s standing in the same feedback loop this weeks Metalhead Horoscope: life, death, rebirth, repeat. That’s metal’s oldest ritual.
Whatever you’re killing off, an old habit, a ghost of who you were, a band that stopped playing the same song as you, bury it deep and loud. Then rise, screaming, reborn in distortion.
Happy Halloween From Metal Lair.
May your riffs be heavy, your candles stay lit, and your neighbors regret calling the cops.
Here’s to the metal, the night, and the weird little tribe that knows darkness doesn’t mean despair, it means volume.
Stay loud. Stay strange. And let the spirits mosh with you.

Metalhead Horoscope F.A.Q.
Q: Are these horoscopes real astrology or just jokes for metalheads?
A: Both. The horoscopes come from actual astrological forcasts, but the language is written in pure metalhead tongue- in-cheek because you deserve prophecy that sounds like a pit, not a PTA meeting.
Q: How do we pick the Lucky Song of the Week?
A: Each track is hand picked to echo the week’s cosmic vibe. If Mars is throwing horns, expect riffs sharp enough to cut steel. If the Moon is weeping in Virgo, you’ll get a track that slays with precision. No boring playlists, no cookie cutter picks. Just new drops, deep cuts and cult classics.
Q: Can metal really mix with astrology?
A: Of course. Both are about cycles, transformation, and intensity. Astrology tells you where the stars are screaming and metal tells you how to scream back.
Q: Why should I care about astrology if I only worship riffs and distortion?
A: Because the cosmos is basically the ultimate tour manager thats setting the stage, flipping the lights, and sometimes cancelling the gig. You don’t have to believe in it to bang your head to it.
Q: Do we take requests for Lucky Songs in our horoscopes?
A: Absolutely. Drop your ideas in the comments or shoot us a message. We might just spin your favorite band into the cosmic setlist next week.
