Weekly · October 23 – November 21
The lunar events falling across the week ahead, and what each means for you.
Sat 19 Sep
Neighbouring signs share a border and little else. They tend to find each other slightly baffling in a way that is more irritating than dramatic.
The dates above are astronomy — they are the same for everyone and were fixed long before anyone asked. What is added is the geometry between each lunar position and your sign. Anything beyond that would be invention, and inventing it is what makes most long-range horoscopes worthless.
Computed for the week ahead
Angles and focus below are computed against Scorpio, so this table differs for every sign. How it is worked out →
Mon 14 Sep · moon enters Libra · Semi-sextile
Balance, fairness and acute awareness of other people. The moon sits a sign away from yours, close enough to colour the days without dominating them — and for Scorpio that meets tests people rather than asking, and remembers slights for a very long time.
Counting from Scorpio, that sign occupies the 12th house — rest, retreat and what you have been avoiding.
Wed 16 Sep · moon enters Scorpio · Conjunction
Intensity, privacy and refusal to accept surfaces. The moon sits in your own sign, so its mood and yours are the same thing for these days — and for Scorpio that meets sees through pretence instantly and commits completely once convinced.
Counting from Scorpio, that sign occupies the 1st house — how you come across and what you initiate.
Fri 18 Sep · moon enters Sagittarius · Semi-sextile
Expansion, honesty and appetite for the unfamiliar. The moon sits a sign away from yours, close enough to colour the days without dominating them — and for Scorpio that meets tests people rather than asking, and remembers slights for a very long time.
Counting from Scorpio, that sign occupies the 2nd house — income, spending and what you value.
Sun 20 Sep · moon enters Capricorn · Sextile
Ambition, structure and playing the long game. The moon is sextile your sign: workable, but only if you do something with it — and for Scorpio that meets tests people rather than asking, and remembers slights for a very long time.
Counting from Scorpio, that sign occupies the 3rd house — conversations, messages and short trips.
