Today’s Scorpio Horoscope:
Tomorrow the Sun’s return to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart will begin the month long wind down of your current solar year but already there is a call for more time to hear yourself think. With the Sun’s departure from your sector of friendship, teamwork and networking tomorrow ending all planetary activity in this social and serendipitous part of your chart, there is a call to remain as socially connected today as possible. As much as you might be eager to put out the ‘do not disturb’ sign there will be plenty of time for that over the coming weeks.
Weekly and Monthly Scorpio Horoscopes:
Scorpio Weekly Horoscope
The Moon will have an important but rolling impact during the week. This will be evident from the start, with the week not only kicking off with a Full Moon in a fun, playful, romantic and creatively charged part of your chart but at a friendly aspect to Venus, the planet of love. This is a Full Moon that will fall here at around this time every year but it has been eight years since Venus was last in Scorpio at the time, giving you a better chance to harness its influence. On Tuesday the Moon will return to your work sector where it will energise planets on the income and job fronts through the middle of the working week. Meanwhile, after starting the week at a friendly aspect by the time you reach the weekend the Moon will be in your relationship sector where it will clash with Venus. As your personal and relationship needs clash this is a chance to get a better sense of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you.
Scorpio Monthly Horoscope
August is definitely not a case of another month and more of the same, with a lot of planetary shifts in the last 10 days of July that have changed the dynamics. The biggest change is that while the right work/life balance is just as important it has not only become more achievable but is happening naturally. The Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your career sector but with Venus and Mars having both left last month and Mercury here until 12th August, you will find it easier to work smarter. With Jupiter in his first full month back in your home and family sector this is important, for he will insist on the right balance between your home and professional lives. While the Sun will wrap up all planetary activity on the career front on 23rd August, with Mars gone and the dwarf planet Eris in her first full month in retrograde motion in your work sector, there is no longer any urgency. The Sun and Mercury are more focused on tying up loose ends before they join Venus and Mars in your friendship sector. Mercury, the planet of communication will return to your friendship sector on 12th July so before Venus leaves on 16th August. However, by the time the Sun returns on 23rd August Venus will have already drawn in support from planets on the communication and relationship fronts. It is on 16th August that Venus will become the first planet to reach a nostalgic part of your chart, where she will take your heart on a nostalgic trip down love’s memory lane before returning to Libra next month. With Neptune already in retrograde motion in your romantic sector and Uranus turning retrograde in your relationship sector on 20th August, the planet of love will return to take advantage of the doors open to the past and second chances on both fronts.

Even so, they are still very appreciative of the efforts afforded to their nurturing, with their appreciation re-payed in their efforts towards their own established family.
That being said, a Scorpio’s love and devotion afforded to their own established family is boundless, perhaps at times being excessively so. They can be overly protective, and can have too high expectations for their partner and children.
