Libra season might have had an easy, breezy lightness to it, but within the moody, brooding Scorpio season – which takes place from 23 October until 22 November – there’s no time for small talk! Indeed, Scorpio season is typically an intense time of year – this is when passionate encounters take place, secrets come to light and life-altering transformations strike. And, for some more than others, it can be a time of immense opportunity.
While Scorpio season is always a significant time for Scorpios, this year will be more of an introspective one. With Venus retrograde occurring on 23 October, Scorpios might be feeling crystal clear about who they are: their worth, values and wishes. And with Mercury retrograde taking place in their sign from 24 October until 13 November, Scorpios might also find themselves rethinking opinions, hashing over old conversations and maybe even confronting old versions of themselves.
So, who are the lucky ones this Scorpio season? I’m defining luck as opportunity, novelty and a dash of the unexpected. If your sign isn’t on the list, this doesn’t mean Scorpio season will be challenging – merely that rest and retrospection might be a more prominent theme for you this year.
Taurus
20 April – 21 May
This could be a remarkable time for your relationships, Taurus – not just in love, but also within creative collaborations and professional partnerships, too. You might connect with someone as creative and loyal as you are, who could help you get out of a rut and find new inspiration. The people you connect with during this time might not be new to you: it might be someone from your past, or maybe you and a current partner will rediscover each other in brand new ways.
Cancer
22 June – 22 July
Your Halloween get-up might be especially scandalous this year, Cancer. You’re letting your freak flag fly this year, and having the time of your life! What’s especially juicy about this Scorpio season for Cancers is that you could be rekindling an old flame. Or, if you’re already in a relationship, you and your partner might find new and unexpected ways to ignite the flame – either way, passion abounds this season. You might also revisit a creative project you had to put on the back-burner.
Libra
24 September – 23 October
We didn’t add you to last month’s list of lucky zodiac signs, Libra, but here you are now! This season looks likely to be a fruitful one: a missing heirloom whose absence broke your heart might finally show up. Or, maybe a friend or organisation who owes you money will pay you back. Perhaps you’ll find cash in last year’s winter jacket – or, even better, a conversation about a raise that’s been pushed back several times by your boss might finally take place. Just be careful not to be forgetful about your belongings during Mercury retrograde!
Capricorn
22 December – 20 January
Some astrologers have given your zodiac sign the unfair reputation of being cold, unfeeling and a little bit of a workaholic. While it’s true that you might have a serious approach to life, the phrase “work hard, play hard” may as well have been coined by a Capricorn, because you know how to have fun too! This Scorpio season could be a riotous time for your social life, with lucky new connections being struck, and plenty of reconnections taking place. Will you run into some faces you’d rather turn away from? Maybe! But, hey, they might have intriguing information to share with you this season.
Pisces
20 February – 20 March
Your zodiac sign might be the luckiest of all this season, Pisces. An exciting trip abroad, or even just a local journey that’s outside of your usual routine, might lead to brilliant epiphanies and opportunities. Your world-view could be turned upside down, and with that, amazing transformations could take place. You might receive a piece of information that changes everything, and it might not even be new: it could be a message you missed, or a long-lost letter finally arriving. This is your time to go viral – if you so desire – or simply take a few steps into the public sphere.
