Your Weekly Horoscopes: October 20 to 26, 2024

You may run into some difficulties around “making it be official” this week whether that’s at work, in your relationship, or simply nailing down a date for drinks. But you’re also finding that it’s easier to let go of minor annoyances and go with the flow. Scorpio season begins on the 22nd and as the sun shifts into a new sign, your focus shifts to collaboration. The urge to upgrade your life is real but before you try to do everything on your own, remember that your most valuable resource is interdependence.

This week’s mantra: “Merge.”

Are you in this work for the long run? Or do you feel like you’re just hustling to get by? The frustration you’re feeling this week may stem from feeling like your daily tasks have nothing to do with your long-term goals. Lean into friends and community for support. Scorpio season begins on the 22nd and ushers in the time of year when you’re very focused on relationships and other people. If something feels off in one of your partnerships or connections, now’s a great time to have the talk or write the email.

This week’s mantra: “Speak.”

You’re faced with some difficult power dynamics in your love life this week. Sure you want to keep the connection light, but what if this just isn’t a casual relationship? On the other end of the spectrum, your boss is letting you off the hook at work so you have plenty of time to workshop texts to your crush. The shift into Scorpio season on the 22nd is a chance to ground down into an easier schedule. As we enter cuffing season, it’s time to let go of unnecessary stress and build stability.

This week’s mantra: “Easy.”

Tensions are high at home this week with everyone getting on each other’s nerves and in each other’s way. As much as you love your home and little family, you’re desperate to run away to a cabin in the woods. Nothing sounds sexier than solitude right now. As the sun shifts into Scorpio on the 22nd, your focus shifts to creativity, and you find peace in your hobbies. It might seem obvious but spending more time doing what you love is the easiest way to find friends and your place in the community.

This week’s mantra: “Place.”

Stress that’s been building for the last few weeks over your schedule and responsibilities peaks on the 22nd. It’s time to let go of this draining obligation and never look back. Though you’re usually too proud to ask for help, burnout necessitates support this week, and you may find it easier than usual to ask for  what you need. Especially with family. The sun enters Scorpio on the 22nd putting a spotlight on your family relationships for the next month. How can you create more space everyday for rest and productivity?

This week’s mantra: “Center.”

The thing about having to be on a very strict budget is that it forces you to identify your true needs. You can live on nothing, but is it worth saving $5 to miss out on joy? Unpause your Hulu subscription. Give yourself a little treat. You may also receive some generosity from friends whether that’s dinner or a dream job lead. The shift into Scorpio season on the 22nd shifts your focus to communication. As you work toward your goals, you’re learning that you don’t have to let everyone in on your plans. Choose your team wisely.

This week’s mantra: “Treat.”

If you’re feeling like a hollowed out shell of yourself, you’re not alone, Libra. The current transits are rough, and for you, they’re hitting on a foundational level. You’re being forced to recalibrate or maybe even start over. Though it feels hard, sometimes too hard to go on: isn’t it better than the alternative? Staying stuck in the same place? The good news this week is that you’re finally finding a flow when it comes to work and money. Scorpio season begins on the 22nd and is about building both security and confidence.

This week’s mantra: “Secure.”

Happy solar return, Scorpio! Though in some ways, you’re feeling powerful in your sensuality and self-expression this week, you’re also finding it difficult to regulate your emotions. It’s OK to love your new haircut after crying through the appointment. It’s not easy to break bad habits and come back home to yourself. With your season kicking off on the 22nd, you might feel the sudden urge to book a trip with your lover or bestie. Is this urge about running away or finding yourself? The answer reveals whether you should go or journal about it instead.

This week’s mantra: “Inspired.”

Everyone (or at least your team at work) is looking at you for answers this week, and that feels both empowering and terrifying. Though you’ve craved this kind of respect and attention, you’re also finding it hard to accept. An ugly-cry after a work meeting or therapy session reveals that maybe you’ve outgrown some of these fears. Scorpio season begins on the 22nd which for you means that it’s power down time. Use some of your newfound power to delegate and give yourself more time to rest.

This week’s mantra: “Accept.”

Power plays from a boss or community leader get you heated and encourage you to invest in your own projects this week. Scorpio season begins on the 22nd and is a time to nurture your friendships. Under this influence, it’s much easier to bring people together. Social situations that usually feel awkward end up empowering. Why not link up your work wife and childhood bestie for a joint slay? My guess is that if they put their heads together, they’ll be able to give you some great advice about how to get back in your boss’ good graces.

This week’s mantra: “Collaborate.”

As someone who’s known for being independent to a fault, you’re humbled this week by a friend’s advice. It’s challenging both to ask for help and to integrate it, but you’re discovering that surrender doesn’t have to be so terrifying. Scorpio season begins on the 22nd, which for you is the season of leadership and hard work in your career. But this year, your focus is on working smarter, not harder. The first step is streamlining your website, reorganizing your home office and reassessing your goals.

This week’s mantra: “Place.”

As a deeply intuitive being, you’re usually beyond tapped into everyone else’s needs. At the beginning of this week though, you might ruffle someone’s feathers when you decide to assert your own boundaries for once. Scorpio season begins on the 22nd and for you, this season is about finding more confidence in what you have to share. You’re finding more ease in your personal expression as you own your knowledge. If someone expects you to stay small or uninformed, that’s their problem. A fun night out with a friend or lover on the 24th helps you forget the haters.

This week’s mantra: “Claim.”
