From November 18th to December 11th, Mercury retrograde returns to Scorpio. In this fixed water sign, the messenger planet teaches us that communication isn’t just about getting your point across; it’s about diving deeper into your experiences, tackling tough topics, and revealing your realest, rawest emotions. Now that Mercury is back in Scorpio, you get another chance to say what you mean and mean what you say, without softening your sharp edges just to be “nice.” This kind of vulnerability takes courage, and it’s not always easy. But the scorpion of the zodiac isn’t afraid of a challenge. It has the grit, focus, and commitment to confront a tricky conversation, even if it gets a little uncomfortable.
Over the coming weeks, you once again get a boost of motivation to air all your feelings — including the ones that seem “too intense” to mention in polite company. If you get an urge to share the thoughts you typically keep to yourself, go for it. Mercury in Scorpio knows that achieving any worthwhile goal requires facing your fears and daring to be honest. You may not get the response you hoped for, but you’re likely to build a meaningful, lasting connection in the process. Let this transit remind you that expressing what you want is worth the risk.

From October 13th to November 2nd, Mercury — the planet of communication — skulks through mysterious Scorpio, leaving polite chitchat at the door. Switch on incognito mode, queue up your conspiracy theory podcasts, and practice your most smoldering faces. When our cosmic messenger enters this fixed water sign, everything that normally gets swept under the rug is amplified. Every emoji begs to be psychoanalyzed. Even the lulls in our conversations and omissions in our emails take on new meanings.
With Mercury in Scorpio dialing up our subtext radars, we can unravel subtle abuses of power, shadowy agendas, and deep psychological truths with our spidey senses — but we can also get caught in the tangled webs of our own obsessive thoughts. As you plot your next chess moves or search for clues in a crush’s social media feed, just make sure you direct this same laser focus to your own motivations. And share your probing questions and profound insights with the friends and confidants who can help you avoid falling down a rabbit hole — and maintain your sense of humor. One of Mercury in Scorpio’s greatest gifts is its sharp wit, so don’t be afraid to cut any mounting tension with your slyest jokes.
