Free Monthly Astrological Forecast for Scorpio


Let me start by telling you that as September ended, four planets moved into your twelfth house. The twelfth house focuses on the mysteries of life. Therefore, secrets, karma, institutions, religion, psychic abilities, and self-defeating thoughts are the areas that will demand your attention at this time. Any other sign would cringe at so much emphasis on the darker side of the mystical, but not you. You’ll be right at home with this month’s energies. Libra and Venus rule your twelfth house and prefer that things be harmonious, luxurious, visually appealing, fair, and peaceful. The sun and Mercury are always in your twelfth house during this time of year, but Mars and Jupiter are special guests adding their own special energy.

Jupiter is a slow moving planet that typically spends about 13 months in each sign. It will be in the sign of Libra from September 26th 2004 until October 25th 2005 when it moves on to Scorpio and your first house. Jupiter is the planet of good luck, abundance, and expansion. While in Libra, it brings its blessings to all things beautiful and fair. You’ll benefit greatly in the areas of art, music, interior decorating, entertaining guests, and fashion design. So what happens when the planet of joy and happiness enters the house of dark reflection for a year? Musicians, artists, actors, therapists, and philanthropists are created. This is a time for you to touch the deepest of human emotions and the depth of the psyche, then bring forth the music and art that is the truest part of the human soul. Heal old psychological wounds, create a charity foundation, volunteer to work at a hospice, take music lessons, practice your telepathy and other paranormal gifts, or sit in meditation until you find real inner peace. With Jupiter’s presence, you will benefit greatly from your time in the house of mysticism and spirituality.

Mars is one of your two rulers and is known as the warrior planet. The planet of action, physical energy, and sex drives entered your twelfth house on September 26th and will not leave until November 10th. In the sign of Libra that means you’ll be motivated to participate in the areas of art, music, legal affairs, fashion, and partnerships. With the combination of Jupiter’s good luck and Mars drive, this is the time to write music, help the sick and weary, go on a spirit quest, build a temple, study hands-on-healing, or free Tibet. Don’t forget that saving yourself from your own self-destructive thoughts can in and of itself be a form of healing the planet. As each individual heals their connection with spirit, the collective consciousness is uplifted. Whatever you do, it will be with passion and fire and it will be for the benefit of mankind on some level.

Venus won’t catch up with the other planets in Libra until the end of the month. She will spend most of the month in the sign of Virgo. Venus is the planet of love and she rules over the pleasures of life. Virgo is the sign of dissection and analysis and rules your house of friends, humanitarian efforts, hopes and dreams. You’re very serious about who you call a friend. There’s nothing superficial about Scorpios. During this time, Venus will shine a loving light over your house of friendships. You will remember why you love these people so much. It’s a good time to join clubs and organizations that you can feel good about. Your social life should be sparkling. You’ll be charming and a natural leader. People will naturally flock to you.

On October 28th Venus will move into Libra and stay until November 22nd. Venus rules Libra and is happiest in her own home. This is the time of year when the ruler of love and pleasure is in the sign of love and pleasure. This is a time to shop for new clothes, enjoy fine wine and gourmet meals, redecorate, laze in front of the fire place, or take a long luxurious drive through the trees to soak up the beautiful scenery as the leaves change colors and begin to twist in the autumn breeze. Since this is happening in your twelfth house of secrets and self-undoing, you’ll want to avoid escapism type behaviors and secret affairs of the heart that could hurt the ones you love. However, if you are involved with someone it might be fun to get a hide away cabin somewhere and leave the cell phones at home. Don’t tell anyone where you’re going and spend a secret weekend reconnecting on a deep spiritual and emotional level with your sweetheart.

It’s easy to overspend on luxury items while Venus is in Libra. To make matters worse, Mercury the planet of commerce will be retrograde from November 30th through December 20th. That means that we’re all at a higher risk of experiencing buyer’s remorse. I recommend getting your holiday shopping done by Thanksgiving but be aware of Venus’ tendency to tempt us into spoiling each other just a bit more then our budgets might warrant. If you absolutely must stay within a budget, you may want to get your shopping done while Venus is still in the logical self-disciplined sign of Virgo.

On October 3rd, the Moon will blow kisses to both Neptune and the group of planets in Libra. This will be a day when imagination, creativity, genuine concern for others, heartfelt communications, and pleasures of the heart all blend together effortlessly. All three houses that govern the mystical secret aspects of the life cycle, sex, legacies, and regeneration are involved. This is a day to become telepathically connected to the unknown forces of love. All things spiritual and hidden that create the life force will be in harmony and rooted in your psyche. It’s a day for cosmic lovemaking and for spiritual reunions where real peace and understanding occur. It’s a day for healing psychological wounds and for knowing the beauty of living the human experience.

The New Moon will be in Libra on October 14th 2004. New Moons are for new beginnings and for setting one’s goals and intentions. Start volunteering for a good cause, begin seeing a really good therapist, check yourself into rehab if you need to, sign up for a Yoga or Tai Chi class, or commit yourself to daily meditation. This is your official clean slate day. Use it however you like. What matters is that you realize that you can forgive yourself and forgive humanity for all the wrongful things we do. In one year, you will have Jupiter in your own sign blessing you as step forth into your personal power. Clean out the skeletons in your psyche’s closet so that you can make room for the new and improved you that is soon to come.

While New Moons are times for beginnings, Full Moons bring closure and fulfillment of projects and relationships. This month’s Full Moon will be in Taurus on October 28th 2004. Taurus rules your seventh house of marriage and partnerships. Uranus is sending positive energy towards this Full Moon, so don’t be surprised to find you and your partner are tucked away in a love nest somewhere. If you are not in a committed relationship, you may find a new love interest suddenly appears out of nowhere. Either way, it’s a romantic and loving full moon. What more could you want?

What about Halloween you ask? Once again the Moon and Neptune will be sending positive heartfelt connections all around. Your thoughts might be far away but your heart will be at home. It’s going to be a great weekend for sharing love and laughter. Can’t promise you good weather but it should be a delightful weekend. Have fun!
