Welcome to 2020, Scorpio darling! We dive headfirst into the new decade with a powerful Lunar Eclipse in Cancer on January 10 and, ahem, tea will be served. Since July 2018, eclipses on the Cancer-Capricorn axis have been activating the area of your chart associated with local and distant communities. It’s finally time to unify these realms. At the beginning of the month, after the Lunar Eclipse, you’ll be receiving critical information that will tell you whether or not you can trust your colleague or acquaintance. *cue dramatic music*

On January 12, Saturn and Pluto (your planetary ruler) form an extremely monumental connection in Capricorn. This cosmic bond hasn’t occurred since 1982 (!!!), so the upcoming union will mark the beginning of a new 33-year cycle defined by expression. Harness the powers of this rare astrological event by practicing direct communication.

That’s right, Scorpio love: There’s no room for passive aggression under this sky. Be straightforward with your desires, and watch how the universe rewards your clarity. Your input and output channels will be open, so when you share exactly what’s on your mind, you’ll be sure to receive exactly what you want.

The Sun cruises into Aquarius on January 20, highlighting the area of your chart associated with your home life. Now, I’m going to take a page out of this “direct communication” book and just come right out and say it: Stop projecting your family issues on everyone.

By the end of the month, you’ll be having major realizations about your upbringing, and the pros and cons of your unique circumstances. But that doesn’t mean you need to carry all of that energy into your daily life.

If you find yourself perpetuating the same toxic cycles, be honest with yourself. Take a step back, apologize when necessary, and be prepared to step outside your comfort zone. Remember, Scorpio babe, pain runs through families until someone is willing to feel it. Be the change you believe in.

Feeling overwhelmed by it all? A New Moon on January 24 will help you connect with your truest self. After back-to-back eclipses, this lunation will feel less chaotic and more restorative, so spend a little time with yourself. Don’t forget that you’re pure magick, Scorpio love. You can channel your energy wherever—and whenever—you’d like.
