Scorpio Monthly Horoscope

Keep on celebrating, Scorpio! With the Sun in your sign until the 22nd and the year’s only Scorpio new moon arriving on the 9th, the stage is set for a birthday season reinvention. Fresh starts around identity, style and personal goals are on your mind. 

But—here’s the rub: Until the 13th, publicist Mercury is retrograde in Scorpio AND style-queen Venus is retrograde in Libra, slowing your rollout. You may wrestle with self-doubt, tech hiccups or the sense that your plans aren’t quite ready for prime time. Don’t force a debut (and wait on that drastic haircut). Instead, edit, rehearse and refine your mood boards. 

By midmonth, your clarity and charisma return and you’ll be ready to unveil the “new you” with impact. Meanwhile, go-getter Mars powers through Leo until the 25th, supercharging your tenth house of career and leadership. Big opportunities are brewing, but so are power struggles if you charge ahead without buy-in. Choose influence over intimidation and you won’t lose allies on your climb to the top. 

Sagittarius season begins on the 22nd. As the Sun highlights your second house of income and values, financial focus sharpens. Negotiate for better pay, upgrade your skills or invest in something lasting. Speaking of investments, a backer could put resources behind your vision near the Gemini full supermoon on the 24th. This “all or nothing” energy demands clarity, however, and situationships could crumble if they can’t be defined. 

After the 25th, Mars shifts into Virgo and your eleventh house of community for the rest of the year. Collaborations and group efforts take off, but guard your energy. Your magnetism is strong. Save it for projects that amplify your vision.

It's showtime, Scorpio! The Sun is blazing a fiery trail through your sign until November 22, putting your desires and passion projects front and center. You’ve put a lot of your focus on other people for the last couple months. Now, it’s time to prioritize your own goals and passions.

That said, the first couple weeks of the month might not reach warp speed as fast as you’d like. Mercury, the planet of communication, travel and technology, is retrograde (backward) in YOUR sign until November 13. Magnetic Venus is also retrograde until the 13th, splitting its time between Scorpio and Libra. Mercifully, the Scorpio portion ended on October 25, but you’ve still had a lot to process in the meantime.

Until mid-November, spend some time sorting through what you truly want. You may have back-burnered a dream, or abandoned a project that you’re now having second thoughts about leaving behind. The Mercury-Venus retrograde cycle is perfect for soul searching. Before you close the door on anything for good, take this time for one more round of exploring.

Ready to turn the page officially for your birthday season, Scorpio? Fresh starts are favored on November 9, when the year’s only Scorpio new moon arrives, marking your astrological new year!

This annual reset kicks off a six-month cycle for your personal goals and dreams. Are you due for a style refresh? An edgy new look could be the revival you need. Have you been biting your tongue and going along with other people’s agendas? It’s time to put yourself first again!

Heads up, though: You may have to dodge some disruptions from a couple of your closest people, especially if you dare to disagree with them. The new moon tussles with Mercury and Venus, which are both in complicated, communication-scrambling retrogrades until November 13. And with Mercury retrograde in YOUR sign, the odds that you’ll be misunderstood are higher than ever. 

Don’t let a rebellious or difficult person drag you out of your happy place. You might need to temporarily (or permanently) sever ties with someone who’s bringing you down. This could happen abruptly, but once you get over the initial shock, you’ll feel a million pounds lighter!

Got a big goal in your crosshairs? Set your sights to spring, when TWO corresponding full moons  in Scorpio bring together events with a flourish (these rare back-to-back full moons in your sign are on April 20 and May 20). Plant the seeds at the November 9 new moon and watch them unfold between now and then!

November 13 is an especially important day for you, Scorpio. Communicator Mercury and magnetic Venus both end their retrogrades today, after weeks of mixed signals and relationship turbulence. Adding to the challenges, both planets were retrograde in Scorpio, though Venus split its time between Scorpio (October 3 to 25) and Libra (October 25 until now).

Of course, you’re a Scorpio, and you thrive in the face of a challenge. No doubt you powered through this phase and will emerge stronger and wiser. All the same, if you’re ready for things to be less harried and conflict-filled, your wish comes true in the second half of November. 

With Mercury moving forward in your sign, Scorpio, clarity, confidence and your ability to communicate your needs without overthinking returns. If a personal goal stalled or a relationship hit a snag, forward motion resumes progress. Mercury lingers in Scorpio until December 6, so use this long stretch to articulate what you want—and don’t be shy about setting the tone. You’re back in command!

Venus, meanwhile, is ready to make amends and repair any broken bonds. Since October 3, the love planet’s retrograde tested our ties, made extra intense by its trip through two relationship-focused signs: seductive Scorpio, then companionship-minded Libra (your introspective twelfth house) starting October 25. Venus goes retrograde every 18 months, and while these cycles can deepen bonds, they can also stir up tension. 

Starting today, the tide turns. Venus moves forward for the rest of the year, through committed Libra until December 4, then finishes the year in Scorpio (minus the retrograde). Situations that felt like lost causes could get a do-over, and someone you’d written off might earn a second chance. If you’ve been lost in a fantasy bubble or obsessing over someone who doesn’t deserve the pedestal you’ve put them on, the end of this double retrograde could bring you back to your senses.

Don’t slip into holiday hedonism yet, Scorpio! On November 22, the Sun starts its monthlong visit to Sagittarius and your second house of stability, routines and money. If you combine business with pleasure, the next four weeks could spawn some exciting client leads, income-boosting opportunities and the inspiration to rev up your revenue. 

Don’t be afraid to think big! Sagittarius is the supersizer sign. Between now and December 21, you could take a percolating idea to new places. Let yourself experiment a bit. Crunch a few numbers or test the market with a small offer to see how people respond. In your personal life, this is a good time to streamline and simplify. Prioritize a few things you’d like to finish before everything shuts down for the holidays and the calendar turns.

One caution arrives November 25, when for the first time since the 1940s, the Sagittarius Sun faces off against unpredictable Uranus in curious Gemini and your other money house, the eighth house that highlights “other people’s money” (inheritances, mergers, etc.). Be mindful where you spend and invest. An opportunity could come out of the blue that SEEMS exciting, but beware of getting caught up in the hype. Act quickly to show your interest but do the research before you take too big of a risk. Gambling urges (ruled by Sagittarius) are dialed up, so make sure you’re comfortable before you bet your whole hand.

Payoff time! On November 24, you could get a nod from the universe that you’re on the right track, when the Gemini full moon (a powerful supermoon) illuminates your eighth house of shared resources, investments and intimacy. Increasing the lunar strength, this supermoon forms a flowing 120-degree trine to your ruler, transformational Pluto. 

Supermoons arrive at a distance closer to Earth, appearing bigger and brighter than other new or full moons. Astrologers believe supermoons can amplify the astrological traits of the sign the moon is in. This is the fourth of five supermoons in 2026 (the last one is next month in Cancer).

Stay open to surprises and plot twists! The Gemini full moon will link up with changemaker Uranus, and harmonize in a 120-degree trine to Pluto in Aquarius and your domestic fourth house. Dovetailing with the start of holiday season, this could spark a change in how you celebrate this year, perhaps a break from your usual traditions.

In your love life, things could get steamy, though not necessarily lighthearted. The eighth house is all about the mind-body-soulmate click, and this supermoon wants it all. A sizzling connection that’s been building over the past six months may reach a turning point: Are you in or are you out? Pluto’s involvement could indicate a pregnancy, move or involvement with a would-be (or current) partner’s family. 

Shared finances are also in these moonbeams. A windfall or lump sum could land within two weeks of this lunar lift, one that carries you into the new year. An inheritance or real estate matter could figure into events. Thinking about investing, buying or selling property, or building passive income? With Mercury retrograde behind you, you can move forward with confidence.

Power meets progress, again! Visionary Pluto in Aquarius and experimental Uranus in Gemini form their second rare trine of 2026 on November 29 (the first was on July 18, part of the famed “Barbault Basket”), doubling down on breakthroughs in how we connect, communicate and build community—a storyline that runs through 2028. This round asks you to dig deeper: which outdated structures or stale beliefs are ready to be scrapped for good?

For you, Scorpio, the transformation starts at home. In July, this potent link between your fourth and eighth houses brought family patterns and buried feelings to the surface. Now, as Uranus retrogrades through Gemini and your eighth house of intimacy and shared resources, you’re reconsidering what closeness looks like. Are you guarding your heart so tightly that no one can get in? A surprising revelation, possibly about a partner, a joint account or your own emotional walls, could shift how you approach trust now.

Meanwhile, your ruler Pluto, now in Aquarius, keeps reshaping your fourth house of home, family and emotional foundations. Your living situation could be ready for a major change, whether that’s a move, a renovation or a new household setup. On a deeper level, you’re redefining what “family” means to you, including the chosen kind. Which traditions do you want to carry forward, and which ones are you ready to let go? Build a sanctuary that reflects who you are now, Scorpio, and watch how much stronger you feel when your roots are solid.
