Scorpio: Vulnerability and the Scorpion

This week we’re working with six transits, and Friday the 13th is the hinge: Mercury stations direct in Scorpio and Venus stations direct in Libra on the same day, something we couldn’t find anywhere else in the ephemeris. Around them, Jupiter in Leo opposes the North Node in Aquarius at 25°, Mars follows at the same degree, and then Mars meets Jupiter in Leo, also at 25°. The question underneath all of it is what the heart has been holding during these retrogrades, and whether we’re willing to release the drama long enough to look at the facts. What’s at 25° in your astrological code?(05:07) Venus Retrograde in Libra Sextile Mars in Leo 23° (Aquarius) – November 7 – 12 (Saturday – Thursday) – Monday, November 9.May 18 – Venus in Cancer Sextile Mars in Taurus 00° (Double Both Signs)November 9 – Venus Retrograde in Libra Sextile Mars in Leo 23° (Aquarius)December 12 – Venus in Scorpio Sextile Mars in Virgo 05° (Leo)(16:21) Jupiter in Leo Opposite the North Node Retrograde in Aquarius 25° (Aries) – November 5 – 19 (Thursday – Thursday) – Wednesday, November 11.In the last 200-years Jupiter in Leo has only opposed the North Node Retrograde in Aquarius three times:July 9, 1860 – Jupiter in Leo Opposite the North Node in Aquarius 2°September 1, 1896 – Jupiter in Leo Opposite the North Node in Aquarius 24°September 18, 1990 – Jupiter in Leo Opposite the North Node Retrograde in Aquarius 6°This occurs three times within the next year.

This week we’re working with four transits, and while it’s a lighter week, Venus and Mercury are slowing down to end their Retrogrades, so things may get a little crunchy. Venus Retrograde in Libra Sextiles Jupiter in Leo on the same day the Sun meets Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio, a Conjunction that last occurred at this degree in 1947, and both land at the Pisces degree. Something is out of balance in our closest relationships, and we’re asking what it takes to initiate the conversation, and what we might bring as an offering when we do. Then Mars enters its Retrograde Shadow in Leo and the New Moon in Scorpio closes out the week. One question before we begin: what is at 16° in your astrological code? We’ll get to it later in the show.(09:02) Venus Retrograde in Libra Sextile Jupiter in Leo 24° (Pisces) – October 31 – November 9 (Saturday – Monday) – Wednesday, November 4.August 17 – Venus in Libra Sextile Jupiter in Leo 10° (Capricorn)November 4 – Venus Retrograde in Libra Sextile Jupiter in Leo 24° (Pisces)November 28 – Venus in Libra Sextile Jupiter in Leo 26° (Taurus)(25:20) The Sun Conjunct Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio 12° (Pisces) – November 3 – 5 (Tuesday – Thursday) – Wednesday, November 4.The last time the Sun and Mercury met up at 12° in Scorpio was November 5, 1947.

This week we're working with five transits, and three of them we've already felt once before. Venus and Mercury are both retrograde, so we're circling back to conversations that started in September. We open the week naked in the town square with the Sun in Scorpio Square Pluto in Aquarius, then sit with the tension of Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio Square Mars in Leo. And we arrive at the question of the week: what is at 27° in your astrological code?(08:34) The Sun in Scorpio Square Pluto in Aquarius 03° (Gemini) – October 24 – 27 (Saturday – Tuesday) – Monday, October 26.October 24, 2025 - 1° (Aries)October 26, 2026 - 3° (Gemini)October 28, 2027 - 4° (Cancer)October 29, 2028 - 6° (Virgo)October 30, 2029 - 8° (Scorpio)November 1, 2030 - 9° (Sagittarius)November 3, 2031 - 11° (Aquarius)November 4, 2032 - 12° (Pisces)November 6, 2033 - 14° (Taurus)November 7, 2034 - 15° (Gemini)November 9, 2035 - 17° (Leo)November 10, 2036 - 18° (Virgo)November 12, 2037 - 20° (Scorpio)November 13, 2038 - 21° (Sagittarius)November 15, 2039 - 23° (Aquarius)November 16, 2040 - 24° (Pisces)November 17, 2041 - 26° (Taurus)November 19, 2042 - 27° (Gemini)November 21, 2043 - 29° (Leo)(18:46) Venus Retrograde in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in Aries 28° (Cancer) – October 25 – 29 (Sunday – Thursday) – Wednesday, October 28.September 10 – Venus in Scorpio Opposite Chiron Retrograde in Taurus 00° (Scorpio/Taurus)October 28 – Venus Retrograde in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in Aries 28° (Cancer)November 28 – Venus in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in Aries 26° (Taurus)(34:47) Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio Square Mars in Leo 17° (Leo) – October 28 – 31 (Wednesday – Saturday) – Friday, October 30.October 2 – Mercury in Scorpio Square Mars in Leo 02° (Taurus)October 30 – Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio Square Mars in Leo 17° (Leo)December 9 – Mercury in Sagittarius Square Mars in Virgo 04° (Cancer)(46:10) Venus Retrograde in Libra Trine the North Node Retrograde in Aquarius 27° (Gemini) – October 25 – November 1 (Sunday – Sunday) – Friday, October 30.September 9 – Venus in Libra Trine the North Node in Aquarius 29° (Leo)October 30 – Venus Retrograde in Libra Trine the North Node Retrograde in Aquarius 27° (Gemini)November 23 – Venus in Libra Trine the North Node Retrograde in Aquarius 24° (Pisces)(1:01:12) The Sun in Scorpio Square the Moon in Leo 09°25' (Sagittarius) at 12:28 PM PST on Sunday, November 1.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Exclusive Content on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack

Scorpio is the most vilified Sign, which makes it the most vulnerable. After a stranger threatened to cut me in half over a clip about the Scorpion, I make the case for the creature itself: six qualities of the Scorpion, and why I don't need an Eagle.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Exclusive Content on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack

This week we're working with eight transits, four of which we're highlighting: the Sun moves into Scorpio, Mercury begins its Retrograde at 20° Scorpio, the Full Moon rises in Taurus, and Venus Retrogrades back home into Libra. Our Degree of the Week is 20°, the Scorpio degree, where Mercury will sit for seven straight days. There's no hiding now.We open with a few words about a heavy week here in Bend, and why sensitivity is a gift rather than a problem.Before the Sun goes deep, it clears the air with the North Node and faces Chiron in Aries for the ninth and final time in this cycle. Then on Friday, the day of Venus, the Sun meets Venus Retrograde, and the question rises: where are we most vulnerable, and who in our lives is worthy of seeing it?The Full Moon in Taurus lands at 2°, the exact degree of the Solar Eclipse on this same date four years ago. Who was in your life in October 2022 who isn't anymore?Show yourself, but only to the ones who are worthy of seeing all of you.(21:40) Venus Retrograde in Scorpio Square Pluto in Aquarius 03° – October 16 – 21 (Friday – Wednesday) – Monday, October 19.September 15 - Venus in Scorpio Square Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius 03°October 19 - Venus Retrograde in Scorpio Square Pluto in Aquarius 03°December 9 - Venus in Scorpio Square Pluto in Aquarius 03°(27:00) The Sun in Libra Trine the North Node in Aquarius 28° – October 19 – 22 (Monday – Thursday) – Wednesday, October 21.(32:07) The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in Aries 28° – October 19 – 22 (Monday – Thursday) – Wednesday, October 21.Previous times that the Sun in Libra formed an Opposition with Chiron in Aries:Sept 23, 2018 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 0°07' (Libra/Aries)Sept 27, 2019 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 3°39' (Gemini)Sept 29, 2020 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 7°09' (Libra)Oct 3, 2021 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 10°39' (Capricorn)Oct 7, 2022 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 14°09' (Taurus)Oct 11, 2023 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 17°40' (Leo)Oct 14, 2024 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 21°14' (Sagittarius)Oct 17, 2025 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 24°51' (Pisces)Oct 21, 2026 – The Sun in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in 28°32' (Cancer)(42:06) The Sun in Scorpio – October 23 – November 21The Sun transits through Scorpio every year between October 22/23 and November 21/22 depending on what time and where you are in the world.(48:54) The Sun Conjunct Venus Retrograde in Scorpio 00° – October 22 – 25 (Thursday – Sunday) – Friday, October 23.(50:55) Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio 20°58' – Saturday, October 24October 4, 2026 – Mercury Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Scorpio 05°02'October 24, 2026 – Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio 20°58'November 13, 2026 – Mercury Direct in Scorpio 05°02'November 29, 2026 – Mercury Exits its Retrograde Shadow in Scorpio 20°58'(56:57) The Full Moon in Taurus 02°45' at 9:11 PM PDT on Sunday, October 25(1:05:49) Venus in Libra – October 25 – December 4, 2026.Dates that Venus transited through Libra previously:August 6 – September 10, 2026October 13 – November 6, 2025August 29 – September 22, 2024November 8 – December 4, 2023September 29 – October 23, 2022August 15 – September 10, 2021⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Exclusive Content on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack

This week we're working with four transits, and all of them land in the back half of the week. Pluto returns to direct motion at 3° Aquarius on Thursday, back at the exact degree where it entered its Retrograde Shadow in January. The same day, the Sun in Libra forms a Sextile with Jupiter in Leo at 21°, and on Friday Mars in Leo forms a Trine with Saturn Retrograde in Aries at 10°, the Degree of the week. Each of these aspects is rare on its own. Together, they haven't occurred at the same time in over 2,400 years, and Pluto was in Aquarius then too.Underneath all of it, Venus Retrograde and Mercury are still moving through Scorpio, and the questions keep coming back to intimacy, vulnerability, and who we share our magic with. We take a look at the Scorpion as the most vilified symbol in the Zodiac, the Water Bearer who built the jug for the village, and what Pluto is asking each of us to create between now and 2028. We close with the Sun in Libra Square the Moon in Capricorn on Sunday, and a conversation about authority that some of us have been putting off.Take a look at your astrological code for 8° to 12° in the Fire, Air, Cardinal, and Fixed Signs. And if you were born with Pluto at 10° in Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius and Capricorn, this week is speaking to you directly.(16:47) Pluto Direct in Aquarius 03°04' – Thursday, October 15.January 11, 2026 – Pluto Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Aquarius 03°04'May 6, 2026 – Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius 05°30'October 15, 2026 – Pluto Direct in Aquarius 03°04'February 6, 2027 – Pluto Exits its Retrograde Shadow in Aquarius 05°30'(37:00) The Sun in Libra Sextile Jupiter in Leo 21° – October 13 – 16 (Tuesday – Friday) – Thursday, October 15.(42:42) Mars in Leo Trine Saturn Retrograde in Aries 10° – October 12 – 18 (Monday – Sunday) – Friday, October 16.(1:08:15) The Sun in Libra Square the Moon in Capricorn 25°18' at 9:13 AM PDT on Sunday, October 18.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Exclusive Content on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack

This week we catch our breath. After twelve transits last week, we're working with four, highlighted by the New Moon in Libra at 17°, the Leo degree, on Saturday, October 10.Mercury joins Venus Retrograde at 8° Scorpio to open the week, bringing conscious awareness to where our most intimate relationships are lifting us or draining us. Mars in Leo Sextile Uranus in Gemini gives us the courage to acknowledge what we're afraid of and see things from a different perspective. Then on the same day as the New Moon, Venus Retrograde in Scorpio Squares Mars in Leo at 7°, the Libra degree, and the goddess of love and the god of war square off.Scorpio is where we get intimate. Libra comes first for a reason. Before we share a secret, our body, or our money with anyone, what do we want, and what are we willing to give? That's what this New Moon is asking us to get clear about.So what's at 17° in your astrological code?(14:38) Mercury Conjunct Venus Retrograde in Scorpio 08° – October 5 – 8 (Monday – Thursday) – Tuesday, October 6.January 29 – Mercury Conjunct Venus in Aquarius 14°February 27 - Mercury Retrograde Conjunct Venus in Pisces 22°October 6 - Mercury Conjunct Venus Retrograde in Scorpio 08°October 23 - The Sun Conjunct Venus Retrograde in Scorpio 00°(30:32) Mars in Leo Sextile Uranus Retrograde in Gemini 05° – October 3 – 8 (Saturday – Thursday) – Wednesday, October 7.(34:17) The New Moon in Libra 17°21' at 8:51 AM PDT on Saturday, October 10.(48:38) Venus Retrograde in Scorpio Square Mars in Leo 07° – October 8 – 11 (Thursday – Sunday) – Saturday, October 10.July 29 - Venus in Virgo Square Mars in Gemini 21°October 10 - Venus Retrograde in Scorpio Square Mars in Leo 07°January 16 - Venus in Sagittarius Square Mars Retrograde in Virgo 10°June 22 - Venus in Gemini Square Mars in Virgo 17°⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Exclusive Content on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack

This week we're working with 12 transits, highlighted by Mercury's transit into Scorpio and Venus beginning its retrograde in Scorpio at the Scorpio degree. Before Mercury settles into Scorpio for more than two months, the Sun and Mercury in Libra ask us to look at what's out of balance in our relationships, and at what each of us has at stake. A story about Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson shows how different those stakes can be. Then Mercury squares both planetary rulers of Scorpio on the same day, and there's no hiding. We're also asking what's at 29° in your astrological code, as Chiron and the Nodes linger at the final degree. What happens when we share the parts of ourselves we're most afraid to share?(18:04) The Sun in Libra Trine Uranus Retrograde in Gemini 05° – September 26 – 29 (Saturday – Tuesday) – Monday, September 28.(21:33) Mercury in Libra Trine the North Node Retrograde in Aquarius 29° – September 28 – 30 (Monday – Wednesday) – Tuesday, September 29.(24:36) Mercury in Libra Opposite Chiron Retrograde in Aries 29° – September 28 – 30 (Monday – Wednesday) – Tuesday, September 29.(27:18) Mercury in Scorpio – September 30 – December 6Dates that Mercury transited through Scorpio previously:November 18 – December 11, 2025 (20° - 29°)October 6 – 29, 2025October 13 – November 2, 2024October 21 – November 9, 2023October 29 – November 17, 2022November 5 – 24, 2021(43:29) Mercury in Scorpio Square Mars in Leo 02° – September 30 – October 3 (Wednesday – Saturday) – Friday, October 2.(44:13) Mercury in Scorpio Square Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius 03° – September 30 – October 3 (Wednesday – Saturday) – Friday, October 2.(54:48) Mars in Leo Trine Neptune Retrograde in Aries 02° – September 29 – October 4 (Tuesday – Sunday) – Friday, October 2.(1:01:19) Venus Retrograde in Scorpio 08°29' – Saturday, October 3.August 31, 2026 – Venus Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Libra 22°51'October 3, 2026 – Venus Retrograde in Scorpio 08°29'November 13, 2026 – Venus Direct in Libra 22°51'December 15, 2026 – Venus Exits its Retrograde Shadow in Scorpio 08°29'(1:06:05) The Sun in Libra Square the Moon in Cancer 10°21' at 6:25 AM PDT on Saturday, October 3.(1:10:41) Mars in Leo Opposite Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius 03° – September 29 – October 4 (Tuesday – Sunday) – Saturday, October 3.(1:13:32) The Sun in Libra Opposite Saturn Retrograde in Aries 11° – October 2 – 5 (Friday – Monday) – Sunday, October 4.(1:17:03) Mercury Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Scorpio 05°02' – October 4October 4, 2026 – Mercury Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Scorpio 05°02'October 24, 2026 – Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio 20°58'November 13, 2026 – Mercury Direct in Scorpio 05°02'November 29, 2026 – Mercury Exits its Retrograde Shadow in Scorpio 20°58'⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Exclusive Content on Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack

This week we're working with seven transits, and the one we've been building toward for years finally arrives: Chiron retrogrades back into Aries on Thursday, beginning its last run through the Sign before it leaves for good.
