Scorpio Weekly Horoscope

Your weekly horoscope, continued 

Pay attention to the little things this Friday, January 9, Scorpio—yes, all of them. They’ll either be your secret weapon or your undoing. With detail-loving Venus in Capricorn opposing expansive Jupiter in Cancer, the tension is between precision and big-picture thinking. Impulsive Jupiter can tempt you to gloss over the fine print in favor of a grand idea, but that’s where mistakes creep in. You’re at your best when instincts and strategy work together, so don’t rush past conversations, contracts or subtle signals. Stay alert for “compare and despair” thinking, especially if someone else’s vision looks bigger or flashier than yours. Inspiration is fair game; imitation is not. Trust your voice, your timing and your sharp perception. If no one else is doing it your way, that’s not a warning sign—it’s proof you’re onto something original. Steady your nerves and lead with confidence. You know more than you think.
 
This weekend, be careful not to stretch too far too fast or say yes to more than you can realistically handle. That’s a real risk when the Sun and Mars follow in Venus’ footsteps and face off with “more is more” Jupiter in your expansive ninth house. The details still DO matter, but are you spreading yourself too thin? This won’t help you accomplish anything—well, except for reaching burnout. Prioritize the most time-sensitive (or most stimulating) items and put the rest on the back burner or in the recycling bin. And take a reality check about everything you've piled on your plate. There are no rewards for martyrs! Before you plunge into DIY mode, get estimates from pros who can do it in a fraction of the time, and think about who owes you a solid.
