December 2010
Scorpio Horoscope

Wrap it up

by Jeff Jawer

You finish your intense year with a mental rewind that reviews the past and reveals patterns of perception and communication. The New Moon in inspirational Sagittarius on December 5 occurs in your 2nd House of Resources to seed visions of increased income. You may need to step out of your comfort zone to take financial risks for this growth to happen.

Sturdy Saturn's solid sextile to the New Moon shows that it's possible to push your limits without losing touch with practical realities. Innovative Uranus' direct turn on the same day feeds you with originality to help redefine your economic landscape.

Your co-ruling planet Mars marches into responsible Capricorn on December 7, strengthening you with mental discipline in the 3rd House of Learning. Yet cerebral Mercury will be retrograde December 10 - 30, telling you to clean up your past before ringing in the New Year.

Scorpio Dates with Destiny

December 2 - 5: Cuts Like a Knife

After smooth sailing on December 2 -- thanks to a free-flowing Mars-Neptune sextile -- you run into choppy waters on December 3 when combative Mars and spontaneous Uranus hook up in a contentious square. You might have a brilliant flash of insight that allows you to invent a different way to handle a task, but it's more likely that high tension will break out in conflict if you're unable to compromise. Still, a quintile between Mars and Saturn eventually shows you how to defuse a volatile situation with common sense. Your mind is like a laser on December 5 when Mercury joins intense Pluto. Temper a tendency toward frankness with compassion to avoid wounded feelings. Concentrated thinking and a clear sense of purpose permit you to make pungent points without inflicting pain.

December 13: Volcanic Heat

Life gets steamy today when Mercury backs over Pluto and Mars. This triple conjunction of the planets of mind, power, and action stirs a spicy stew of creativity as the imaginative Pisces Moon falls in your 5th House of Self-Expression. It's complex to be feeling such mental aggression when you're also emotionally raw and vulnerable. Negatively, it's a perfect storm of volatile reactions, since words are so heavily charged. Fortunately, you can be incredibly productive if you find a constructive outlet to channel your ideas
and emotions.
