Scorpio 23 October – 21 November

That intense, fixed water energy of yours, Scorpio, is dialled right up today, and it's making you feel everything with an undeniable depth. With the Sun at 21 degrees Scorpio, you're deeply connected to your truth, but there's a whisper of tension from the cosmos. The Sun is squaring Mars and Jupiter, both in late Leo, stirring up some powerful dynamics around your desire for recognition and where you feel your authority lies. It’s like there’s a spotlight on your ambition, but you’re feeling a pushback.

Expect some deep internal rumblings, especially with Mercury also in early Scorpio, forming a tight square to your ruler, Pluto, in early Aquarius. This is the universe’s way of asking you to spill the tea on your own unspoken truths. What's bubbling beneath the surface, Scorpio, that you’re holding onto tightly? This aspect suggests a power struggle in communication, or perhaps you're guarding a secret that needs air. Your instinct to protect your vulnerabilities is strong, but today, that impulse might be creating the very friction you're trying to avoid.

The Moon in Capricorn, currently in a waxing crescent phase, is sitting in a somewhat awkward square to retrograde Saturn in early Aries. This could manifest as a slight sense of restriction or a feeling that you’re being held back from expressing yourself fully, especially when it comes to practical matters or taking decisive action. You might realise that some of those emotional walls you've carefully constructed are now keeping out the very things that could help you move forward.

Meanwhile, a fantastic energy is brewing with Uranus in early Gemini trining Pluto, your ruler, in early Aquarius. This connection is about revolutionary transformation, and for you, Scorpio, it’s about breaking free from outdated power dynamics in your closest relationships or within your own sense of self. Coupled with Neptune in early Aries sextiling Pluto, you have a subtle but potent intuitive compass guiding you towards authentic connections and a deeper understanding of shared resources. Don't be afraid to lean into that gut feeling; it’s telling you where true trust can be found.

Later today, as Venus retrogrades through late Libra, sextiling Mars and Jupiter in Leo, you might find an opportunity to re-evaluate your alliances. This isn’t about dramatic declarations, but rather a quiet reassessment of who truly has your back. It’s a moment to see where your loyalty is reciprocated and where it might be misplaced. Be honest with yourself about where control issues might be muddying the waters. Today is about finding your power not in what you hold onto, but in what you're willing to release.
