Scorpio Monthly Horoscope

Two is your magic number when the Sun enters Taurus April 19

Relationships take the main stage starting April 19, when the Sun commences a monthlong stint through your opposite sign of Taurus, heating up your partnership house. Step away from that lengthy to-do list and get back out with the people. 

For the next four weeks, make sure your most important bonds are in sync and that you're all on the same page. If things are imbalanced, steer it back to a more equal give-and-take. Until May 20, it’s all about balance, synergy and choosing the right people to walk beside you.

Another reason to lean on your trusted inner circle? You’ll need the support. Taurus is your opposite sign and with the Sun as far from your Scorpio stronghold as it gets, your energy could dip a little. That’s okay. This season invites you to lean into collaboration instead of going it alone. Step away from solo hustle mode and check in with your closest bonds. Are they uplifting and reciprocal—or do they need a recalibration?

The seventh house rules partnerships of all kinds, so whether you’re deepening a romantic connection, teaming up in business or mending fences with a friend, make sure mutuality is at the core. And if someone’s draining your energy more than contributing to your growth? That’s your cue to lovingly step back. This is your time to partner with people who match your momentum—and help you rise.

Work-life tension rises at the April 26 Mars-Pluto faceoff 

Let’s start with the good news: On April 18, go-getter Mars zooms into Leo, heating up your career house for two months. While there may be some long days and short deadlines between now and June 17, the intensified pace can also pay off in professional prestige, promotions and power moves.

But first, you may need to reckon with dueling demands between work and home. On April 26, Mars locks into its biennial opposition to Pluto, which is in Aquarius and your domestic house, playing extreme tug-of-war between your personal and professional life. 

It starts April 18 as intensifier Mars immediately challenges power-tripping Pluto in your domestic sector. A loved one could feel threatened by your ambition and begin acting out. Or, in an attempt to be "helpful," this person might plant a seed of self-doubt you can’t shake. Be careful who you share good news with on this day because you’re more sensitive to reactions than you may realize.

The tenth house (where Mars is) rules fathers, and the fourth house (where Pluto’s sitting) rules mothers. Some buried anger could bubble up toward your parents or family of origin. A person who unwittingly triggers an old wound might show up, causing you to revisit those past pain points. Do your best to catch a knee-jerk response as soon as it flares.

You may feel stressed or burdened by obligations to your clan. Is it time to break free from a confining role already? You could reach a breaking point—but ultimately, this can force you to get more organized or step into a new level of responsibility. Get back into the driver’s seat of your life again, Scorpio!
