cosmic relief: a month of intensity and mystery

With autumn in full swing and winter on the horizon, Scorpio season brings us an intensity that pushes us into the darker months. After the lighthearted energy of the summer, Scorpio is a cut-the-bull season that asks us to face our inner demons and plunge into the subconscious waters fearlessly. 

The sun enters this deep and mysterious sign Oct. 22 through to Nov. 23. This year, we have even more planets transiting through this fervent sign. With Mars, Mercury and a new moon this month, we can expect lots of focus on transformative, taboo, sexual and subliminal aspects of ourselves imagine a month long Addams Family festival. As Venus transits through the sign of Capricorn,  we are going to be desiring the best of the best and will likely be competitive about it. 

So, intense feelings, tumultuous conversations, penetrating energy and lots and lots of mystery this month.

To help you navigate these Scorpio waters, here are your horoscopes for the month along with another cosmic playlist to put a spell on November for you.

Taurus
