** All about Scorpio

Of all that's ever been written about Scorpio over the years, much of it -- no, most of it -- has been unfair, negative and worded so that those born under this Sun sign sound downright intimidating. It's as if simply getting to know them requires superhuman courage and a fully armed bodyguard. Well, we're about to put an end to all that nonsense. It's true that Scorpios are not for the faint of heart. They're not shallow, they won't be manipulated and they will never, ever 'settle' for less than what they really want. In the Scorpio mind, 'settling' equates with giving up -- and that's something else they'd never, ever do. Scorpios won't stop working toward a goal until they're convinced that it's impossible -- which takes some doing.

Even when they're not on a mission, Scorpios are still undoubtedly sniffing out clues. They're born detectives who are always on duty, analysts who never stop digging for answers, and investigators who are perpetually in search of information. A mystery is an invitation to these folks; what's below the surface is simply irresistible.

And speaking of irresistible, if you're attracted to a Scorpio and vice versa, whether it's been 24 years or 24 hours, rest assured that they'll never cease to amaze, astound and startle you. Just when you think you've got them all figured out (although you likely stopped laboring under that illusion shortly after you two met), they'll say or do something that will cause you to find them even more fascinating. They're loyal to a fault -- but maybe just a bit too jealous at times, so don't play games with that emotion -- and perfectly willing to fire walk for you. And whether or not you opt to make the relationship legal, 'until death do us part' will always apply. Their love will literally last forever.

** Your Starcast for October 22 to November 20

Your feelings and desires deepen as the Sun enters Scorpio on October 22. Then, the trine between information-focused Mercury and spiritual Neptune on October 24 gives you plenty of inspiration. Mercury's entrance into Scorpio on October 28 provides you with a laser-like ability to focus. But watch out that you don't get in your own way when the Sun squares Mars on October 29. Saturn enters Libra, also on October 29, marking a major transition when your attention turns to your relationship-life and how people get along. Finally, a message about the benefits of civility! But when Mercury squares Mars on November 1, argumentativeness is in the air. An emotional Taurus full Moon on November 2 highlights your values and finances. Neptune turns direct on November 4 when keeping the big picture in mind helps you make good decisions. As Venus enters Scorpio on November 7, you want to connect deeply with those you love. The Sun squares expansive Jupiter on November 10, when misunderstandings can occur. Then you receive support when the Sun trines independent Uranus on November 14. Keep an eye on the Sun as it squares Neptune on November 15 though, when everything may not be as it seems! Saturn squares Pluto on November 15. Pay attention because this aspect is a game-changer! Mercury's entrance into outspoken Sagittarius brings information you may -- or may not -- want to hear! Make a strong investment in your life with the new Moon in passionate Scorpio on November 16. Then you'll need to straighten out some relationship entanglements as Venus, the love planet, squares Mars on November 19.

October 22: Sun enters Scorpio

Life becomes more intense as the Sun leaves fair-mined Libra and enters the deep waters of Scorpio. Over the next four weeks, you won't feel lukewarm about anything. This is a great time to invest your heart and soul in something that matters to you. Plus, the resourcefulness and determination of this sign gives you the stamina to further yourself and your goals. Use the power of this transit to follow your passion, whether you decide to go back to school, find your soul mate or run for public office!

October 24: Mercury trines Neptune

This trine between information-focused Mercury and spiritual Neptune is one of the most creative, imaginative and even psychic combinations among our planets. If you have a dream that has been close to your heart but that you've been reluctant to pursue, this is the time to let your imagination soar. With Jupiter still close by Neptune, your enthusiasm gives you that extra spark. Fan it into a flame!

October 28: Mercury enters Scorpio

With Mercury in a sign that loves to plumb the depths, this makes this a great transit to get to the bottom of anything. Like a determined private detective, you'll stop at nothing until you learn whatever it is you want to find out. Whether you need to finish writing an essay for school, find a great daycare center for your child, or create the perfect resume to land the perfect job, you have the ability and laser-like intensity to stay with your project until the very end. Just watch out for a tendency to obsess. If you find your mind looping around the same theme too many times, get off that merry-go-round and get some cotton candy instead. Even great minds need a break!

October 29: Sun squares Mars

This is an aspect when people tend to work at cross-purposes. Although you are likely to express yourself with a great deal of passion, you also have a tendency to be extra concerned with getting your way. Mars heats up any planet it comes in contact with, and you can easily get off track by approaching people the wrong way. Instead of pushing people to do something they don't want to do, take this formidable energy and pour it into achieving your own goals.

October 29: Saturn enters Libra

Saturn has been transiting through work-focused, health conscious Virgo for two-and-a-half years. It's a big deal when this serious planet enters a new sign. Hopefully you've applied yourself during this Virgo time and have become healthier in body, mind and spirit, and streamlined your day-to-day activities. As Saturn shifts its focus from Virgo work to social Libra, your attention turns to relationships. Whether you're married, seriously committed or single, you're prompted to take your relationships more seriously.

You can expect fireworks when information-collector Mercury in emotionally intense Scorpio squares Mars in respect-driven Leo. This in an argumentative aspect that shows just how eager people are to jump into the fray. Everybody has their sensitive spots, and with this feisty aspect you may feel tempted to sting with your words. If you can take inventory of yourself rather than focusing on other people's issues, you'll be miles ahead of everyone else this week.

November 2: Full Moon in Taurus

You will want to keep your wits about you with a financial full Moon taking place as Neptune changes direction. Don't be in the dark about your money! There are areas of your life where it makes sense to be more on top of where your money is going. During this emotional high tide full Moon, step back and go through your papers. If something doesn't make sense, use the current Mercury in Scorpio to play detective. You may need to address areas of disagreement about how money is handled. Although conversations can get a bit feisty with warrior Mars weighing in with a square, make tangible, practical investments in your life that make you feel content and secure.

This full Moon will most affect those born October 31-November 4, January 28-February 1, April 29-May 3 and August 1-5.

November 4: Neptune turns direct

Neptune retrogrades once a year. This year, this mystical planet has been retrograde since May 28. A planet that rules spirituality, inspiration and idealism, there is little that is logical or materially sensible about this Neptune. Because of this, you may need to bat through the cotton balls of confusion in areas of your life where you need your mind to be at its sharpest. Neptune's placement in Aquarius since 1998 has helped all of us in our quest for freedom, contentment and a more peaceful life. Now as Neptune turns direct, your hopes and goals get forward momentum. What's your dream? Examine the house where transiting Neptune is currently for greater insight. You have learned a lot over these last several months. Now it's time to use your knowledge and incorporate everything you know. As you are focusing on your personal plans, keep the big-picture view to help yourself make good decisions.

November 7: Venus enters Scorpio

As Venus leaves social Libra and enters the deep waters of passionate Scorpio, light, casual conversation just won't do it for you. Instead you want to explore how deep you can go with your partner. What makes them tick? How do they really feel about you? Are they soul mate material? All of these questions! When the planet of love transits through this intense sign, you will feel like nothing less than a profound connection will do. It's time to leave the commitment-phobic people behind. If you are single and want to meet the love of your life, attend events where people are passionate about what they are doing.

November 10: Sun squares Jupiter

November 14: Sun trines Uranus

November 15: Sun squares Neptune

The Sun in desire-driven Scorpio in a square to Jupiter in Aquarius, an air sign, challenges you to be extra aware of your strong emotions while also taking into account the social environment and the needs of others. Support comes from independent, innovative people who can help you make creative changes that enhance your life. Keep in mind that the Sun also squares Neptune. Figuring out what you want may feel confusing now. Do what you can to find a quite place to relax so that you can step away from any distractions. This will help you to devise a workable plan.

November 15: Saturn squares Pluto

Ever since Saturn's entrance into Libra on October 29, Saturn has been inching toward this square to powerful Pluto. This aspect is a game-changer and it will be around for a while with two more squares: one on January 31, 2010 and the next on August 21, 2010. So pace yourself and don't react quickly to anything! Saturn is your 'builder.' The way you structure your life and build upon the past to create your future -- well, that is Saturn's job. Pluto is the planet that gets rid of anything that doesn't work -- even if it does not seem that way to you at the time. Simply -- something's got to give. Get ahead of the curve by ditching anything that is not really relevant to your life at this point. We will have much more information about this important transit. So, stay tuned!

November 15: Mercury enters Sagittarius

Mercury in Sagittarius is often called the foot-in-mouth placement because of its outspoken nature. Expect plenty of statements followed by retractions and explanations! On the plus side, nothing beats this placement for enthusiasm and optimism. If you make a point to be tactful, you will get the most out of this fun transit. Because Sagittarius is a sign that represents any culture or country foreign to you, this is a great time to sign up for a language class or to expand your understanding of people's beliefs that are different from your own.

November 16: New Moon in Scorpio

What is your passion? Is there something you want so badly that you feel like if it doesn't come true you will have missed out on something important? Few signs are as intense, driven and powerful as Scorpio; now is your chance to put everything you've got into furthering your goals and dreams. This is a time of new beginnings. But to get what you want, you need to let go of whatever is not working and anything that has outlived its usefulness, whether that is an attitude or a life situation that no longer fits who you are today. Invest now in something you want to grow and become more important in your life. At the full Moon later this month, you'll have a chance to stand back and take a look at what you've accomplished!

This new Moon will most affect those born November 14-18, February 11-15, May 13-17 and August 15-19.

November 19: Venus squares Mars

Venus, the relationship planet in uber-intense Scorpio, has privacy issues. Mars, the planet of action and desire, in bold showy Leo loves to be the center of attention. Sometimes the person you like is not the person you desire. It's just one of life's messy conundrums! This square can spice things up or cause problems. You'll see which one it is for you by the end of the week.

Enjoy the Sun's transit through Scorpio!

** Astrolesson: Saturn transits

Since Saturn enters a new sign for the first time in two-and-a-half years during this solar period, we thought a review of Saturn transits would be extra helpful now.

'Responsibility' is a keyword and concept for Saturn: responsibility for thoughts, for emotions, for actions. Saturn is the planet that says we are responsible for our lives, responsible for all of our choices. No wonder the concept of limitation is also a key Saturn concept! Nowhere do we meet the limitations within ourselves and our world more than by where we are willing to acknowledge responsibility. "Not my fault, I couldn't help it, it wasn't me, there was nothing I could do..." Blaming others for limiting or holding us back is one of the most common reactions when dealing with Saturn, whether it's Saturn in our natal charts or working with Saturn through transits.

To work successfully with Saturn, it helps to understand what Saturn is asking of us so that we know what opportunities are available. On September 2, 2007, Saturn entered Virgo, the sign of health, work and service, when your attention (and the world's) turned to these important themes. Addressing and taking responsibility for health -- yours and the world's -- has been a major focus. With Saturn's entrance into relationship-oriented Libra on October 29, how you treat and relate to people becomes extra important. 'Return to Civility' is Saturn-in-Libra's motto! And now you have two-and-a-half years to take responsibility for how you relate to others!
