When the Sun enters Scorpio shortly after 7:45 pm EDT (23:45:29 UTC) tomorrow, the accompanying astrology will be complex but understandable. Initially, at least, you may find that conditions in your life will follow suit. In general, you can expect the tableau to include an interesting mix of logical and unexpected developments.

As you might expect, much of what you consciously initiated while the Sun was in Libra will proceed to coalesce into logical consequences under a Scorpio Sun.

As those consequences take form, you will probably have to make only a few minor adjustments in order to manifest what you started over the last three or four weeks. The outcomes you have recently been seeking will likely be obtainable over the next three or four weeks so long as you are flexible regarding the details.

If, for example, you have been planning to host a Halloween party, it would be more wise to focus on essential preparations than fixate on whether someone in particular will show up.

Should there be any surprises in store while the Sun is in Scorpio, chances are they originated while you or somebody else was proceeding less than consciously during solar Libra. Should that be the case for you, take responsibility, but only for your own oversights. This does not mean you should abandon others. Instead, serve as an example to others by cleaning up after yourself as a first priority.

Finally, a word about boundaries. The two planets said to rule Scorpio (Mars and Pluto) are currently in Capricorn, which is ruled by Saturn — the lord of boundaries. The main implication of that arrangement is that you would be better off setting limits for yourself than challenging those of others. Keep your boundaries simple, and make them clear. Channel your energies towards remaining firmly grounded in what you know. Refrain from speculation, extrapolation or hyperbole.

Mars will move on to Aquarius Nov. 8 (or Nov. 9, depending on your time zone). Until then, tend to your own business first. Do the right thing as best you can. Live and let live. If you can do only those simple things, the concluding days of the Sun in Scorpio will more than likely be quite gratifying for you.
