The loss of someone close to you, a grandparent perhaps, have put a sudden end to all your recent partying and socializing. Now is a moment for quietude and introspection. Take comfort in spirituality or the visions of dreams. Avoid destructive thoughts of actions. Self care is important. You feel truly connected with your family today. Home takes precedence over work as you feel especially protective of children and younger siblings. Communicate with family, in person or via social networks. You may want to display your ingenuity today.

Speak your truth? Saturday’s confusing square between the moon, Saturn and Neptune clouds your thinking, making this a tricky day to say what’s on your mind. You could also get a guilt trip for saying “no” to a friend or sibling. Under this sensitive aspect, you could feel slighted, even attacked, when someone makes a simple observation. To help you make sense of your emotions, do some journaling or turn to a neutral third party as your sounding board. And whatever foolishness certain people serve up, don’t take it personally! On Sunday, as the moon forms a challenging square to Mercury in your unconscious twelfth house, pay a little more attention than usual to your behavior and motivation. It’s one thing to ask for the occasional favor, Scorpio, but quite another to expect special treatment all the time. You’re not deliberately trying to use people for personal gain—and it’s normal to hope to benefit from others’ connections—but if you’re going to take favors, be ready to return them. Better yet, pay it forward!
