Relationships: Can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em. You’ll feel that dynamic tension brewing this Monday, August 1 as the fate-finding North Node syncs up with combative Mars and combustible Uranus in Taurus and your seventh house of committed unions. Frustration that’s been simmering below the surface could bubble over like molten lava. While you don’t want to burn anyone in your moment of frustration, trying to deal with this politely won’t work either. If you can frame this as “an issue” rather than a code-red disaster, this is a powerful day to give voice to the things that desperately need improvement. Apply this to all your relations: romantic, business, family, creative collaborations. Depending on where you read on the rage-o-meter, it might be best to source a levelheaded third party for your initial venting. The point of this exercise is to clear the air—not clear the room!
If you’ve been waiting for your summer socializing to pick up, Mercury steps in as concierge this Thursday, winging into Virgo and your “more the merrier” eleventh house until August 25. Where have you been wanting to branch out with a new friend circle, a politically active group or maybe a meditation circle? Over the next three weeks, get back in touch with everyone who reached out to YOU and just say yes to whatever they propose. Getting to know like-minded folks will do your little Scorpio heart a world of good!
You might have actual stars in your eyes this weekend, when dreamweaver Neptune in your maison d’amour winks at Venus in your adventurous ninth house. A very intriguing prospect could walk right into your sight line, captivating you first with their aura and then with a sexy, hard-to-place accent. But keep your wits. There’s a lot to learn about this person before you start coming up with baby names. Attached Scorpios might want to cancel plans with casual friends and devote the day—and the night—to each other.

On Sunday, angsty Mars gets checked by sober Saturn in Aquarius and your emotional fourth house activating an extreme need for space. If you’ve let roommates and family trample on your privacy policy, look out! With aggressive Mars in the mix, you could rage in reaction to these “boundary crossings.” But before you sound off, get real: Did you actually vocalize your limits or were they simply assumed? On the flip side, YOU might be the one who’s been leaning a little too heavily on a loved one. If you call your mom or your best friend every time there’s a “crisis,” it’s no wonder they’re concerned—and vice versa. This Mars-Saturn square may bring a wakeup call: Maybe it’s best to vent to your diary or a therapist and make the focus of your friendships a little less high-drama. You’ve got this, Scorpio; you don’t need their advice as much as you’ve convinced yourself that you do.
