Scorpio Monthly Horoscope

The short answer

Scorpio, this month review the arrangement in front of you instead of forcing a launch. Useful for reviewing a draft, a conversation or a number you already have. Not useful for launching a brand-new plan under pressure. The first week carries this most clearly.

· Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21)

Scorpio, this month review the arrangement in front of you instead of forcing a launch. Useful for reviewing a draft, a conversation or a number you already have. Not useful for launching a brand-new plan under pressure. The first week carries this most clearly. This is because your ruler Pluto is in Aquarius, which emphasises what you're outgrowing whether or not you planned to. It is retrograde, so treat this as review territory rather than a launch. The New Moon in Libra falls on Sunday 11 October. For Scorpio that is your 12th house of rest and what is hidden: rest, retreat, endings, and what you have not admitted yet. The Full Moon in Taurus falls on Monday 26 October. For Scorpio that is your 7th house of partnership: your significant other, close business partners, and open opponents. Venus turns retrograde in Scorpio on Saturday 3 October. For Scorpio that is your 1st house of self and how you come across: you, your body, your appearance, the first impression you make. Pluto turns direct in Aquarius on Friday 16 October. For Scorpio that is your 4th house of home and family: home, family, where you are from, and your private life. Mercury turns retrograde in Scorpio on Saturday 24 October, in your 1st house. The Sun moves from Libra into Scorpio on Friday 23 October, in your 1st house. Venus moves from Scorpio into Libra on Sunday 25 October, in your 12th house. Mercury and Mars form an exact square on Friday 2 October, in your 1st house. Pluto opens a door with Neptune, so where the picture is softer than it looks is in the mix too. Mercury and Venus are also transiting Scorpio at the moment, which brings how you think, talk and make arrangements directly into your own territory rather than leaving it somewhere abstract. Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are retrograde, double-check anything you're signing or sending. Taken together, the practical instruction is to commit to the specific thing in front of you rather than reorganising everything around it.

Scorpio Love & Relationships

For October, put your love life effort into you, your body, your appearance, the first impression you make. Worth saying plainly what you want, while you are the one setting the tone. Not useful for hinting and hoping someone guesses. Venus starts the month in Scorpio, your 1st house of self and how you come across. Venus turns retrograde in Scorpio on Saturday 3 October, in your 1st house. Mercury and Venus form an exact conjunction on Wednesday 7 October, in your 1st house. Venus and Mars form an exact square on Sunday 11 October, in your 1st house. The Moon crosses Scorpio on 12 to 13 October; those are the days to act on your love life. Check back at the end of October: one finished step in how you come across is worth more than a plan for all of it.

Scorpio Career & Work

For October, put your work effort into your career, your public standing, and the people above you. Worth putting your hand up where the decision makers can see it. Not useful for a private effort nobody will know you made. Mars stays in Leo all month in your 10th house of career and reputation, so the subject holds from start to finish. Mercury and Mars form an exact square on Friday 2 October. For Scorpio it links your 1st house of self and how you come across with your 10th house of career and reputation. Mars and Neptune form an exact trine on Saturday 3 October, in your 10th house. Mars and Pluto form an exact opposition on Saturday 3 October, in your 10th house.

Scorpio Health & Wellbeing

Across October, your health and energy is decided in you, your body, your appearance, the first impression you make, so start there. Worth one honest thing for your own body this month, chosen rather than squeezed in. Not useful for pushing through to prove something. Mercury stays in Scorpio all month in your 1st house of self and how you come across, so the subject holds from start to finish. Mercury and Mars form an exact square on Friday 2 October, in your 1st house. Mercury and Pluto form an exact square on Saturday 3 October, in your 1st house. Mercury and Venus form an exact conjunction on Wednesday 7 October, in your 1st house. The Moon crosses Scorpio on 12 to 13 October; those are the days to act on your health and energy. Check back at the end of October: one finished step in how you come across is worth more than a plan for all of it.

Scorpio Money & Finance

For October, put your money effort into your career, your public standing, and the people above you. Worth treating your rate as part of your reputation. Not useful for accepting a figure because asking feels rude. Jupiter stays in Leo all month in your 10th house of career and reputation, so the subject holds from start to finish. The Sun and Jupiter form an exact sextile on Thursday 15 October. For Scorpio it links your 12th house of rest and what is hidden with your 10th house of career and reputation. The Moon crosses Leo on 5 to 6 October; those are the days to act on your money. Check back at the end of October: one finished step in your career is worth more than a plan for all of it.

Calculated: the positions, the dates and times, and which of your solar houses each falls in, cast from an astronomical ephemeris for the tropical zodiac. Times are Sydney time with the zone, and UTC. Interpretation: what the reading above says these mean for you. That part is astrology, a tradition of reading the sky, not a measurement.
