Scorpio 11th – 17th August 2025

Mars and Pluto’s zenith tension stirs that signature intensity, but the Moon’s retreating light forces you to store rather than spend your energy early on. The midweek Mercury – Eris discord makes negotiations subtly predatory – yours or theirs, it’s hard to say. As you are feeling predatory. By Saturday, the Sun aligns harmoniously with your ruling planet’s zenith position, allowing for precise and decisive moves – which you are so good at. This is a week for strategic patience, not open confrontation. Think carefully about that sting, be the observer, the scorpion in the sand, not charging rhino – not his week.
