Scorpio Monthly Horoscope

Scorpio – The focus this month is on your Eighth House (Gemini) and Sixth House (Aries). Finance and work. The house and your unpaid job. The apartment and your course. The Eighth is about money and real estate involving a partner or relative (usually). The Sixth is about your workload and your wellbeing. We could also tie up health insurance with this transit. It depends on your birth chart.

Uranus, Freedom and the Revolution

Uranus here is in its first stage of evolving revolution. The Eighth is about all that you own, earn or owe in the context of your wife (say) or your father (for example). It describes the inheritance you leave to others as well as any will which names you. It is very much about any sexual and financial relationship.

Uranus always, always brings a 1781-style revolution and in the wider world, this is about the internet, computers, airlines and public transport. Artificial Intelligence and electric cars are the first wave. This has a ripple effect which reaches your shore, Scorpio, in terms of your paid work, unpaid work or study. That is what August 2025 is all about adjusting and adapting to the first tides of time. You have until 2033 to do this as a whole.

Uranus is about freedom and independence, so if there is anything about your service and duty to others which prevents you from being free financially, that will have to be reshaped or even let go. You have your Sun in the Eighth natally, so you are well-known for ‘matters of a joint financial nature’ as Patric Walker used to describe it. We think of Charles III or Bill Gates as prime examples of Scorpio men with the Sun in the Eighth.

So, this quite radical change in your financial, business, charity and/or property situation in August is personal for you. It affects your profile and portrait in the world too. Best to embrace the liberty and the liberation – you can’t buy it and it’s priceless for all that you are a fixed sign. The sheer space and bandwidth of this transit has to be experienced to be appreciated, although the caveat is really the shock of Uranus. Shockwaves are usual. Again, as you are a fixed sign, you would prefer the known world instead of the unknown world, but this is also a brand-new world there to be explored and invented. An electrifying experience.

The Sixth House

The Sixth is also under transit from Saturn and Neptune. If you have anything in Virgo in your natal chart, then life 18-19 years ago will be back as you are owed (or you owe) in terms of workload, wellbeing, duty and service to others. Whatever was taking place back then with your job, course, unpaid work and medical situation is reverberating through time. This may explain why (if you have Virgo factors) you feel you are on a loop.

Whatever your natal chart looks like, the day-to-day is about finding a balance between the total escapism of Neptune and the clock-watching of Saturn. It’s quite common to have a job or course you find heavily compresses – inescapably so – and then seek absolute departure from it by playing hooky or vanishing on your phone. Anything will do as long as it’s not the lead weight of the daily to-do list.

Equally common is the McJob (which may be gainful unemployment a la ‘The Idler’) which has nothing to do with the everyday but oddly does come with restrictions and realities. The unreality is bounded by quite rightly ring-fenced situations! Rather like being a circus clown (Neptune job) but also having to abide by union regulations. Clock on, clock off with a giant pair of shoes.

Balancing what is, frankly, such a conflicted set of transits takes a bit of time. Very occasionally (on this cycle), you end up with health issues which prevent you from labouring. This is likely to be in sharp focus in August if you already know about it and a decision is looming. This leads you straight back to the economic revolution I mentioned at the start of your forecast.

Premium? Go on.
