Scorpio week horoscope August 12—18, 2024

Dear Scorpios,

Prepare to harness an extraordinary surge of energy and ambition during the week of August 12th to 18th, 2024. With the Sun illuminating your 10th house of career and professional achievements, you're already brimming with ambitious plans. Can this period become even more intense? Absolutely—and you'll receive a clear answer midweek.

Mark your calendar for August 14th. Your inherently passionate nature will be amplified thanks to a rare conjunction of your ruling planet, Mars, and expansive Jupiter in the constellation of Gemini, focusing on your seductive and magnetic 8th house. This powerful alignment heightens your passion and drive, but it may also stir intense emotional states. Some Scorpios will thrive under this potent energy, while others may feel overwhelmed. Regardless of which camp you fall into, it’s crucial to stay within your limits to avoid being swept away by the intensity.

This week is ideal for setting intentions, making wishes, and realigning your personal goals. To fully capitalize on the rare Jupiter-Mars conjunction, dive deep into self-reflection. Whether you're inspired by visions of the future or confronting your fears and grievances, take it all into account for comprehensive planning.

Turning our attention back to your career: On August 14th, retrograde Mercury shifts from your socially oriented 11th house (where it began its retrograde cycle on August 5th) into the dynamic sign of Leo, lighting up your 10th house of career. This transit is an excellent opportunity to review and reassess your recent professional decisions. While it's a time for introspection and careful weighing of options, avoid making any drastic changes during Mercury’s retrograde. Use this period to thoroughly evaluate the pros and cons before proceeding.

Pay special attention to August 16th. On this day, fiery Mars in your 8th house of intimacy forms a tension with cautious Saturn in your 5th house of romance. This aspect may put strain on your relationships, particularly if suspicions or doubts about your partner arise. Navigating these turbulent waters will require a delicate balance. It’s important to communicate openly, yet thoughtfully, to maintain harmony in your romantic engagements.

Embrace the transformative energy this week, Scorpio. Your career ambitions and intimate relationships may both face tests, but with careful consideration and emotional insight, you can make pivotal strides forward.
