Scorpio September 2022

How do you extend love toward others in a way that helps you to cultivate your own dreams as well, Scorpio? The level of investment you have in your community surfaces this month as Venus moves into Virgo on September 5. Get ready for this transit to highlight the way you’ve been embracing (or avoiding) a sense of responsibility toward others, and building toward a wider picture of your desires. 

A few days later on September 9, Mercury retrograde through Libra begins! During this period of stagnation and slowness, prepare to shed your energetic skin. Lessons you thought you’d learned will rear their heads and ask you to step into your power, proving to yourself that you still possess the strength to move through hurt. The very next day brings a full moon in Pisces that is nothing short of exciting, Scorpio. As this lunation brings a burst of energy into the part of your sky that rules artistic exploits and flirty flings, a stroke of inspiration finds you. Be sure to write down your influences today, and pay attention to messages from the occult. 

Then on September 23, the Autumnal Equinox occurs, marking the beginning of Libra season. This will usher in a time for you to focus on releasing past turmoils from your life, and getting in touch with your occult side. Peace and quiet will be needed to execute this, Scorpio! Can you make sure to spend some time alone to process it all? The new moon in Libra on September 25 reinforces the way you’re embracing the newness of it all. Use this lunation to set intentions around what you’re going to do with so much of your bandwidth freed up. Finally, Venus moves into Libra on September 29 and adds a darker tinge to your already doomy fashion sense. Welcome in spooky season with open arms!

Scorpio August 2022

August 1 brings a confrontation in your partnerships and close bonds as Mars and Uranus cross paths in a zone of your sky that rules relationships and how you depend on others. Is there something you’ve been withholding that can’t be a secret any longer? This transit activates your need to express yourself independently from those around you, and only invest in folks who want the best for you. Push through those difficult conversations! 

On August 4, communication planet Mercury moves into steadfast Virgo and aids you in reconnecting to your dreams and community. Around this time, you’re reminded that it’s not about saying a lot, it’s about saying the right thing to reinforce your bonds with others and commitment to your goals. Venus enters Leo on August 11, bringing you into a place in your career where you aren’t afraid to accept some new leadership roles. Just remember not to over commit yourself to various tasks! The next day on August 12, the full moon in Aquarius asks you to return to spaces where you feel safe, and celebrate the kinship you share with chosen family members. Family is allowed to be people that you define in your life, and unconventional Aquarius vibes encourage you to embrace this. 

On August 20, Mars enters air sign Gemini and sets you on a new journey of how you navigate anxieties, fear, and anger that stems from a deep place within you. Get serious about finding ways to let your emotions out in positive ways! Not everything is worth scowling at. Mercury moves again on August 27, entering a zone of your sky that prefers silence over mindless chatter. Prepare for pensive vibes, and speaking through body language more than words. Finally, your month rounds off with a new moon in Virgo bringing a burst of renewing energy into your sky. Use this as a chance to create lists and logic around how you want to proceed with fulfilling your dreams and goals.

Scorpio July 2022

While Mars’ fighting spirit can make you feel entitled to get your way, its entrance to Taurus on July 4 encourages compromise. In partnerships, try to find common ground without framing everything as a “win” or a “loss”. Mercury enters Cancer on the same day, inspiring you to share your opinions and beliefs. Over the next two weeks, position yourself for lucky learning opportunities by appealing to others’ moral compasses. During the July 13 Capricorn full moon, information is revealed that prompts difficult emotions. Your first instinct could be to repress what is coming up for you. Instead of closing off, permit yourself to explore your feelings and allow them to transform the way you think. 

After Venus enters Cancer on July 17, you might find yourself attracted to someone from a different background or meet a love interest on vacation! Mercury’s July 19 entrance to Leo turns your attention to business affairs. Use this influence to impress with your skills, getting your work into the public eye so it can be seen by the widest possible audience. However, wound-healer asteroid Chiron stations retrograde on the same day, asking you to reframe the way you perceive your capabilities. Consider how much you have to teach: putting aside your insecurities can aid another’s growth. 

The sun enters Leo on July 22, shining a spotlight on your career in the month ahead. Set intentions for rising into a leadership position during the July 28 Leo new moon. Jupiter stations retrograde on the same day, prompting you to review if your labor is in line with your ethics. For the remainder of the year, find ways to work smarter, not harder.
