A developing connection may have taken some interesting detours over recent weeks, with Venus in her retro phase causing a roller-coaster of feelings. You might have been reflecting on what you do want from a relationship. With the planet of love now dancing ahead, you can gauge whether this is right for you or not. If it is, great! If not, a new chapter may now be opening.

Today’s lunation encourages you to step back, unwind and recharge. With its influence occurring in a secluded zone, you’ll crave solitude and quieter pursuits. If life has been hectic, a short break can help you consider fresh options. Welcome this chance, as you’ll likely return refreshed, renewed and ready to tackle what’s next with a clear mind and stronger purpose.

Today’s Mercury/Mars vibe encourages a shift in perspective, and one that could open the door to an exciting opportunity. A conversation, insight or unexpected realisation, might be just what you need to see things differently. A fresh direction has the potential to energise and inspire you. Take the leap, and you’ll find that with action your dreams have a great chance of coming true.

Ready to cut out distractions and focus on what truly matters? If so, you’ll be much more productive. And Mercury and Venus dancing ahead in your leisure sector, can bring fresh energy to a relationship that’s felt stuck. Now’s the time to rekindle joy, laughter and connection. This week’s lunation highlights the need for rest and balance. Step back, breathe and recharge.

Take your talents seriously this month Scorpio, because if you do and really apply yourself, then others will better appreciate the qualities that you possess. The Full Moon of the 13th is complex however, and its clash with your traditional ruler of Mars, could tease into the open any issues that have been lurking out of sight. You may find yourself a lot more forthright in the second half of the month, but for single Scorpio’s who’d like to forge a meaningful involvement, the New Moon can increase your desire to interact and socialise.
