Scorpio Weekly Horoscope

This week is pointing your attention in several different directions, Scorpio, so it is completely understandable if you have a few moments in the days ahead when you feel like you need to get your bearings. First things first, messenger Mercury has spent the last couple of weeks spinning through your sleepy 12th House, which can always feel like a rather dreary time, but that all changes on the 30th when the cosmic communicator zooms into your sign and your 1st House of Action and Self-Expression. During this cycle, you’ll be a lightning rod for all the gold nuggets of information circulating out in the Universe; likewise, if you’ve been chipping away at a project behind the scenes your big debut could be right on the horizon. Bear in mind, however, that Mercury will be turning retrograde here at the end of October for three weeks, so whatever comes up for you in the meantime will likely be coming back around in the near future for a second-look. With that in mind, take new projects slowly, and if you are making any big reveals or initiating any major changes, prepare yourself for the fact that you may need to do a bit of reworking during the retrograde cycle. Remember, the more careful you are now, the less you will need to fix in the future.

Speaking of retrogrades, the 3rd brings another important change as Venus, the Goddess of Love and Beauty, turns retrograde for the first time since early 2025. Venus retrograde often teaches us some rather complicated lessons about romance or finances or our relationship to beauty, but you’re going to get a double dose of these lessons thanks to the fact that Venus is turning retrograde in YOUR sign. That means that you, more so than any other sign, should absolutely avoid any kind of major makeovers; no haircuts, no tattoos, no splurging on expensive clothing, etc. You should also avoid beginning new romantic entanglements, as they are likely to putter out before they can actually go anywhere, while couples may need to work on their relationships and ensure that everything is on the up and up before moving along in the right direction. Bear in mind, however, that Venus will retrograde back into Libra and your 12th House of the Subconscious near the end of October before eventually turning direct again in mid-November, so these themes will be changing in the future.

Saturday rolls around with a bit of a headache as the Sun in Libra and your 12th House forms a tense opposition to karmic Saturn in Aries and your 6th House of Daily Work and Routine. Even if you’d rather take things easy, it looks like something is going to demand your attention, reminding you of the responsibilities you’ve got to deal with in the here and now. Try not to let this energy get you too bogged down as it is only temporary; there will be chances to enjoy yourself again soon enough, and it will be far easier as the planets will soon be moving into your own sign, giving you more control once again.
