It may be Autumn, but on Tuesday, October 23, the stubborn, secretive, sensual, sizzling Scorpio Sun brings the heat. Regardless of our birth date, the mysterious 8th sign of the Zodiac can infuse us with determination and focus to get projects done, snare that love interest or drill down through any mysteries that need to be solved. Sensitive and emotional – there will be drama and there will be depth. Skimming the surface of a project, a problem or a relationship just won’t do!
Besides the Sun, there are now three planets, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, transiting Water sign Scorpio which could make life even more interesting:
Mercury, the communication planet, transits from 10/10 – 10/31/18 – interactions can be easily heated and more demanding than usual.
Lovely, romantic Venus visits Scorpio from 9/9 until 1/17/19, adding beauty and lushness to this intense sign’s ways of seduction. Included is a Retrograde period back into Libra on 11/2 and a return to Scorpio on 12/3 until 1/17/19.
Cheerful, “everything is better when it’s bigger”, good luck planet Jupiter has had a long stay in Scorpio from 10/11/17 – 11/7/18, spreading some optimism and light.
We can accomplish a lot using Scorpio’s power and fierceness- it’s traditional planet ruler Mars (energy and aggression) and its modern ruler Pluto (power and transformation) – but also remember that laughter can be used as a balm to stabilize, bring things into perspective and lighten the atmosphere.
As always, the impact depends on where (which House) Scorpio falls in your particular chart.
