Well, we’ve already had one October surprise - the POTUS getting COVID-19 along with the First Lady and some staffers. Or, was it a surprise given his cavalier attitude and behavior regarding the pandemic? I’m not so sure. It is currently unclear as to whether there will be any more Presidential debates - my guess is that there will not.
Transiting Mercury opposes transiting Uranus (from Scorpio) on October 7, 2020, and Mercury is already in its shadow period for the next retrograde (which begins on October 13, 2020). The planet stations quite close to an opposition to Uranus. Then its next exact opposition is on October 19, 2020.
The Vice-Presidential debate occurs the evening of October 7, 2020 in Salt Lake City. So, we should look for some surprises in that debate, but I doubt it will be as raucous as the Presidential debate. Retrograde Mars (in Aries) squares transiting Pluto on October 9, 2020, so power plays and struggles will likely occur during this period. Pluto turns stationary direct on October 3, which could produce some fairly significant events. It is currently stimulating the eclipses of July 12, 2018 and July 16, 2019.
It looks like the Amy Coney Barrett confirmation hearings will be going on during the Mercury retrograde period. Her N Sun is at about 8 degrees Aquarius, so transiting Uranus will be in a wide square to her Sun during this period (and moving closer to the exact square aspect). I would expect delays and more surprises - perhaps big ones.
Finally, the Sun opposes transiting Uranus on October 30, 2020 from 8 Scorpio. We also experience a full Moon (a Blue Moon) that day at 8 Taurus. This is just four days before the Presidential election. Trump’s N Pluto is at 10 Leo, Biden’s N Pluto is at 7 Leo. McConnell’s N Mercury is at about 11 Aquarius. Fasten your seat belts (and, don’t forget your masks).
