The Week Ahead for Scorpio
Monday, October 19th – Sunday, October 25th
On the 23rd, the Sun enters your sign replenishing your confidence and optimism. Well, technically, that is what should happen, although you may have to work a little harder at it this year! Earlier in the week, Venus angles Pluto for the second time in four weeks, so it will be taking you back to an event in mid-September. Perhaps a date has been rescheduled or something mysterious that arose can now be explained. Whatever the return journey – and you’ll make another with Mercury also turning retrograde on Saturday – it will be purposeful. Just don’t overreact though.
Shifts.

Monday, October 12th – Sunday, October 18th
Pluto makes a big comeback in October, as you might have discovered last week. Pluto’s brief is to transform and eliminate, so something always has to go on this planet’s transit in order to open up space for the new. Sometimes, great shifts occur on Pluto’s watch, which are to be welcomed and celebrated, even so, they demand a lot from you. There is no easy way to do things at the moment; while your attitude should be positive, you need to dig deep to find the resources required and the wisdom to know when to keep on going and when to change course.
Taking a deep dive.

The Month Ahead for Scorpio
October 2026
This is a very revealing month. Pluto inspires depth-charged exchanges and brings buried issues up to the surface. (There can be no secrets on Pluto’s watch.) The first few days are full of drama, and even if you love what’s happening, you’ll have to be careful not to upset someone who could cause you a problem. It is good to get rid of toxic situations and to start over clean and clear, but how you go about it is crucial. The full moon of the 26th is all about endings and putting the past firmly behind you. Onward and starward, Scorpio.

The Year Ahead for Scorpio
Stability and security may have been absent from life for a while, but things are changing. From the end of April Uranus will be gone from the relationship zone. However, Uranus is also responsible for those fabulous sparks that fly between two people. Don’t rule out a fling that will change your life, nor believe that you are immune from falling for someone who is already taken… Those of you born in 1981/1982 are most likely to fall deliriously in love, and also the ones most vulnerable to breakups and playing away from home. With this in mind, be prepared for the earth to move on or near the 17 February and 12 August.
