Welcome to 2024, Scorpio! We start the year with Mercury ending its three-week retrograde in your sector of money and self-esteem. If your finances have felt stalled in some way, this will gradually begin to change this month and beyond. Your relationship to money and wealth-building will become more expansive. Keep an open mind as the year begins and tap into the final degrees of Mars’ stay in Sagittarius to allow yourself more flexibility. This week, lean toward the experiences and relationships that provide you with freedom and joy.

On Wednesday the 3rd, the Last Quarter Moon takes place in Libra, in the sector of your chart that has to do with solitude, healing, and spirituality. This is a call to slow down, to give yourself space to breathe, to rest, to sink in and feel. With Jupiter freshly direct in the sign of Taurus, activating your sector of partnership, chances are you’re reflecting on the friendships and romantic connections that are present in your life. You may have to peacefully release the ones that feel one-sided, unhealthy, or overly codependent in order to make room for connections that are mutually fulfilling, healthy, and based on a growth-mindset.

Your mission this week is therefore to continue to consciously clear space so you can start fresh during the first New Moon of 2024 happening next week. Your planetary ruler Mars moves into Capricorn on January 4th, heightening your communication skills. If you’ve been working on a podcast or a special writing or creative project, this is the ideal time to get back at it. Your words will have further reach during the next six weeks — particularly since our second ruler Pluto is in its final degrees of Capricorn until January 4th — so speak from a place of integrity while honoring your impulses and showcasing the power fo your vivid imagination.

Romantically, this first week of January has you in a crossroads of sorts. Venus is currently in Sag, encouraging you to not overthink different situations in your life and simply live in the moment. But Jupiter and Uranus are both in Taurus, reminding you that sometimes when you leap without looking, you end up falling flat on your ass. Ouch. In this case, it’s particularly important that you don’t play with people’s feelings, even if you don’t mean to hurt them… Having Mercury, Venus, and Mars in Sag all at the same time during the first part of the week could lead to you speaking or acting too bluntly. Consider thinking three times before you speak, or writing your feelings down in a journal before processing them with others.
