Scorpio
Born between: Oct 23rd - Nov 21st
Scorpios are emotional and passionate which ensures they have strong relationships. They are often confident and determined; yet, their emotional and secretive nature can cause them to be jealous and misunderstood.
You can get a lot done over the next few weeks, Scorp. For that you need to be fitter, so review your physical lifestyle, seeing whether you could improve your diet, take up more exercise or get more rest. This is likely to be a time of major change in your life through confrontation and conflict. The more you face and the harder you struggle, the greater your rewards will be on the far end. Effective colours are amber and hyacinth. Lucky numbers are 18 and 50.
Stand up for yourself, Scorpio. You are determined to keep relationships around you smooth and harmonious, but turning somersaults just to keep the peace may not always be wise. Be firm but tactful if the need arises. Detail and specialised information is your forte now, as your mind is sharp. What about re-organising your working life? Just don't get too critical of workmates, if you want to keep the peace. Advantageous colours are rock melon and cerise. Lucky numbers are 51 and 56.
If you can't travel literally, you can travel in your mind. Get out the holiday brochures or read books with an exotic flavour. Do anything that takes your mind off the same old same old. Aim to stretch yourself in at least one activity during the day. You do feel unusually confident about the long-term, and optimistic where planning is concerned. So crack on, but double check that those schemes of yours are realistic. Adventurous colours are avocado and snow white. Lucky numbers are 4 and 34.
The planetary influences are generating a high-octane, disruptive mood. A few surprises and secrets will come out into the open. Look for friends and lovers who do not cling. Why can't people be happy to pursue their own course of action without always involving you? At times you may test each other's patience, but you always come together again, revitalised after being apart. Beneficial colours are moonstone and silver. Lucky numbers are 40 and 68.
Watch your step, Scorpio. Are you impulsive? If you're quite hot-headed, planetary influences will send you flying into situations you would have been better off staying away from. Stop and think more clearly and closely. You get the chance to prove just how resourceful you can be in earning more, re-organising what you possess, and in negotiating skilfully. But, as always, you do have to watch a tendency to become too controlling around money. Propitious colours are pistachio and paper bark. Lucky numbers are 5 and 39.
If you feel you're not doing as well as you want, give yourself a shake. Be sensible and admit if something isn't working. Cut your losses, concentrate on your successes, change what you can, and accept what you can't change. A definite decision to face reality will boost your spirits. Well-organised Saturn is in your ninth house of the higher mind and belief systems, so you are working extra hard now to improve your understanding of the world. Favourable colours are mixed shades and pale violet. Lucky numbers are 8 and 36.
With Mars, your life-ruler in your eighth house, you will be concentrating on joint finances for the next few weeks. Fight for your rights in cash and emotional matters, though it may feel like a struggle and you could be intensely frustrated at points because of other people's obstinacy. Find some compromise agreements that are fair to all concerned. You are intensely involved in your intimate relationships, so anyone who tries to double-cross or let you down will not be forgiven in a hurry. Auspicious colours are blue denim and scarlet. Lucky numbers are 52 and 10.
You need to rethink your approach, if your companions are ignoring you. Sometimes the harder you push, the more they resist. Gentle persuasion is best, so work out a way in the back door. Once you have learnt the secret of handling money lightly, you will do exceptionally well. Expect power struggles over cash if you want to be in control of resources and possessions. Ease off a bit. Advantageous colours are ebony and almond. Lucky numbers are 44 and 15.
Give a wide berth to grumblers and bores. Look for supportive buddies, the ones you trust in your life and who have helped you in the past. The urge is to be more way out and rave it up socially and romantically. This is why you feel so restless around conventional relationships, which are making you feel bored or trapped. Advantageous colours are warm brown and spring green. Lucky numbers are 28 and 58.
Put aside your own need for frivolity and indulgence and make sure that everyone else is getting what they want. Being of service to others will give you reassurance and, rest assured, more support will be on offer for you very soon. Just polish your halo, and console yourself with the thought that you will get your reward in a couple of days. Responsible colours are dark grey and myrtle. Lucky numbers are 6 and 3.
It's the Equinox, and this isn't the most glamorous time of the year at work for you, but it could just bring the right circumstances for you to re-organise some of your methods. If you can find the discipline then you'll clear up a good many tangles before they happen. You'll feel more intensely for a few weeks, and can be jealous if you feel insecure. You come across with more powerful effect than usual, but ( characteristically!) have no intention of displaying your hand. Advantageous colours are hibiscus and pistachio. Lucky numbers are 10 and 58.
Scorpions are more than usually keen to get details in the right place today. You are less worried about getting praise than being helpful and being of service. Making a determined push is the right approach. You'll be in the right place at the right time, saying the right thing to the right people without making too much of an effort. It's the Equinox, when the world turns, as the astrological year begins. Determined colours are ultramarine and beige. Lucky numbers are 55 and 77. Read more on the Equinox!
I think you may be a little bit unrealistic here Scorpio. You are allowed to daydream and be a little romantic, but if you want to disappear into a private place, or be around loved ones and sacrifice yourself on their altar, well that is going too far. Perhaps you are being asked to sacrifice a fair amount for your closest emotional relationships now. It is a tug of war between your individual identity and the family. Somehow you cannot have both together. Empowering colours are indigo and opal. Lucky numbers are 5 and 13.
Face up to the challenge without throwing a tantrum or getting too hot under the collar. Since everyone around you seems edgy, try not to end up saying things you later come to regret. It is important to compromise and not get too rattled over trivia. When you do decide it's time to take a stand you will be clear, cool and cutting. Control your anger with those who are acting unfairly and appear to be getting away with it. Beneficial colours are lavender and grapefruit. Lucky numbers are 5 and 52.
You are likely to be warm and friendly to everyone you meet, and maybe even lucky financially. Money could be coming in, but going out rather fast as well. Mix happily into team situations now, as your confidence and enthusiasm inspire everyone around you. In fact you are more than happy to have a wide circle of acquaintances, the more the merrier, as far as you're concerned. Profitable colours are honeysuckle and pink champagne. Lucky numbers are 9 and 12.
A real party animal at the moment, you won't settle down to routine chores or follow orders easily. Feeling outgoing and romantic, let your exuberant feelings out on display. Expect some heated encounters along the way since you tend to attract competitive or ambitious companions at the moment. Even your nearest and dearest will seem rather outspoken at times, so you may have to broker the peace. Enjoyable colours are burgundy and brass. Lucky numbers are 13 and 71.
Don't look for what's wrong around you, Scorpio. Just seeing the flaws and the inadequacies rather than the benefits is a reaction to the influences. It may not be easy to open up to other people because you fear they may be critical rather than supportive, but try all the same. You are determined to get a more orderly atmosphere to work in, and are fed up with incompetence, chaos, and too pressured a schedule. Take time just to wind down. Beneficial colours are azurite and claret ash. Lucky numbers are 66 and 63.
Your helpful suggestions at work go down well now - except when you trample on other people's corns as you point out their flaws. Try a little charm and a few compliments before you wade in to criticise. At some points today the words spill out all over the place and other people may get a bit avalanched. So once in a while you have to stand back and come to a few conclusions before you leap back out again. Fortunate colours are amber and barley bread. Lucky numbers are 12 and 20.
The adventurous Moon awakens your house of personal finances, so what you really want are treats, luxuries, and presents. Do not be too attached to the good things. This can make you a touch possessive, so you need to look more laid-back than you feel. Maybe you cannot quite make up your mind what you want, or what your commitments should be. It's only a passing blip, so step back briefly until you feel clear again. Advantageous colours are quicksilver and burnished copper. Lucky numbers are 10 and 36.
There are benefits in standing your ground. The evidence may not come through for a few days, but you will be glad you rose to the challenge and didn't lose your cool. It may not feel very good just now, but the better things in life always cost a little in terms of effort. Do not focus unduly on differences others regard as too trivial to bother about; you will spot what they overlook. Bold colours are parchment and bright red. Lucky numbers are 50 and 73.
There are days when duty takes precedence over desires, and this is one of them. Nevertheless, you will be able to follow your conscience without feeling too deprived. Your lovelife may be more restrained, but it will bounce back to warmer climes very quickly. When you get gloomy or suspicious, remember you could be taking a rather narrow viewpoint that dampens your natural enthusiasm. Confident colours are citrine and ruby. Lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
Other people's comments are annoying. Sometimes you can get yourself worked up about things that aren't as important as you make them out to be. Give yourself some space to wind down and be more at peace. Your heart is in the right place, so put your best diplomatic foot forward. If you are trying to sell or recommend anything at the moment, charm is your greatest asset. Advantageous colours are butterscotch and red coral. Lucky numbers are 49 and 32.
Tensions in your emotional life may come out into the open. That is all to the good, because they will set you free in the long term, allowing you to go off and do the things you really need to do for yourself. You are in a longish period of Uranus casting its disruptive rays over your romantic life and self-expression. Your presence out on the social scene is alternately sparkling and then serious. Calming colours are sea green and copper. Lucky numbers are 16 and 55.
If you've have to speak to a wider audience than usual, the Mercury-Mars aspect is great. It will pick you up and push you out, stimulating the confidence to say the things you need to say. Be clear about who you are, but also be clear that it's OK for other people to be who they are. Aim for a creative and constructive discussion. You may be absolutely right in what you are thinking or saying, but keep an open mind. Confident colours are cumquat and blackberry. Lucky numbers are 13 and 12.
Serious about educating yourself in a general sense, you take pride in your sharp mind. Control resentment if you are not given the recognition you feel your ideas or your work deserves. Just keep aware of the broad picture, developing tolerance, hope and a sense of humour. Scorpio is strong minded and forceful, but always entertaining in your way of expressing yourself. Use that fiery, positive approach to tackling problems. Advantageous colours are oyster and blueberry. Lucky numbers are 77 and 16.
Although you really want to have fun and enjoy yourself, you may have a niggling thought about sorting out long-term schemes. Find ways to satisfy both of these needs, since loved ones and buddies have been getting more of your attention and affection of late. Today casual acquaintances are more interesting. You may find yourself spread a little thin, but at least it won't be boring. Auspicious colours are lilac and chestnut. Lucky numbers are 62 and 37.
Socially you will be in top form, charming the birds off the trees and feeling extremely popular. However, it's not always best to say what you think will please other people, rather than what you really think or feel. You seem a touch insincere, though you are well intentioned. As usual, you keep your feelings to yourself, refusing to let on, even to your nearest and dearest. Beneficial colours are burnished gold and brilliant white. Lucky numbers are 7 and 12.
You can win people over to your side if you sweep them up in your enthusiasm. Be straightforward and other people will adore you. Your mind will be leaping from subject to subject at great speed, so slow down once in a while just to check your companions are actually hearing what you have to say. Be absolutely clear about what may seem to be trivial details. Effective colours are taupe and golden wheat. Lucky numbers are 55 and 75.
More reserved than usual, you seem uncharacteristically shy when it comes to expressing your romantic needs. More effort is needed to break the ice and reveal your abundant inner warmth. You are focusing on your working situation in a way that brings more recognition, appreciation and admiration. So it really does mean that you've got to put your energy into doing things in a new and different way. Try getting out of the rut. Effective colours are lemon and treacle. Lucky numbers are 16 and 72.
With dynamic Mars in your seventh house you are throwing yourself into joint or romantic encounters with a good deal of gusto. Your sunny self-confidence makes everyone around you feel better, while they in turn give you a sense of better times to come. It is certainly a time to put your plans into action since hard work, effort and more luck than usual are on your side. Alluring colours are spring green and cranberry. Lucky numbers are 7 and 11.
The Sun and Moon are in a glorious aspect for you Scorpions, so you'll be delightfully stimulated. Get out and meet new friends, from different backgrounds or even different countries. Because you are so relaxed in yourself you put companions at their ease. Together you'll be off to find excitement and adventure. You could work well as a go- between with others. Why not make travel plans - or at least dream over faraway places? Adventurous colours are jade and moonstone. Lucky numbers are 5 and 9.
