Scorpio Weekly Horoscope

This week is full of exciting developments and changing energies, Scorpio, some of which will occur out in the great wide world, and others within your very own depths. The energy hits a high note on the 4th when red hot Mars in Aries and your 6th House of Daily Work makes a combustible square to bountiful Jupiter in Cancer and your 9th House of Adventure, luring you away from your desk to chase after more exciting things. Unfortunately, Mars will stir up plenty of chores for you to tend to, so it may not be easy to get away from the work at hand, but there’s no reason you can’t plan your next expedition in between checking things off your to-do list. On the other hand, you might decide it is time to find ways to expand your work in some way, or seek out new opportunities further afield, so don’t think you need to keep doing things the same way you’ve always done them; a little change can’t hurt!

On the 6th, alchemical Pluto will turn retrograde for the next five months, hitting the snooze button until mid-October in the sign of Aquarius and your foundational 4th House of Feelings and Family. Pluto has been taking his sweet time working his way through this extremely personal part of your chart, and now you’re going to be reviewing some of the power structures that influence and impact your home life as well as your own sense of familial identity. If there are any issues with a relative, or the place you hang your hat, it’s time to face them and get them sorted, but you don’t need to do it all in a day so don’t get overwhelmed at the prospect. This is for your own good, believe me.

This domestic energy continues to take center stage on the 9th with a powerful Half Moon in Aquarius, reminding each and every one of us of the need for balance and peace both within ourselves and on a global scale. Since this lunation will be keeping your attention focused on your home and hearth, it’s more than likely you’ll find yourself in something of a nesting mood. Even if you’ve already had more than your fair share of being at home thanks to Pluto, this lunar angle wants you to keep doing just that, so don’t fight it.

Sunday, the 10th, should be quite positive, as the Sun in Taurus and your 7th House of Relationships will make a lovely sextile to abundant Jupiter in your 5th House of Passion and Pleasure. This combo is wonderful for romantic endeavors, so if you’ve got your heart set on someone special then this would be the perfect day to make your move. There is plenty of room for platonic fun, as well, so if you’re not looking for romance that doesn’t mean you need to miss out on the good times!
