When Mars passes through Scorpio from October 11th – November 24th, the planet of action ditches its charm campaign for strategy. Scorpio is Mars’ water domicile. That means Mars is at home in this sign — and fully resourced to strive after its desires. Here, Mars gets what it wants through the sheer force of its focus, doggedness, and instincts — all without cracking its resting witch face.
After weeks of crowd pleasing, finessing, and working to maintain equilibrium in Libra, Mars in Scorpio is unconcerned with the politics of politeness. And it wants you to be unconcerned with all that too. In this fixed water sign, Mars is piercing and attuned to the slightest change in currents. It’s obsessive. And when dialed in, Mars in Scorpio’s determination is unshakable.
This is not the time for halfhearted action. So whatever you’re feeling driven to pursue, even if it’s simply believing in yourself a bit more, zero in on it.
That doesn’t mean burn yourself out. This isn’t a sprint; Mars in Scorpio prefers to bide its time. So ask yourself what’s motivating you. And if you’re struggling to locate your internal compass: consider what you’d do if you weren’t afraid of upsetting anyone else.
Mars in Scorpio will conjoin the Sun in a cazimi on November 17th, precipitating a major rebirth in our relationship with motivation and momentum. Mars cazimis (auspicious conjunctions with the Sun) happen every two years. But the last time Mars conjoined the Sun in its water domicile of Scorpio? 1991. So this is a rare occurrence, and one to note — especially if you have a personal point or planet in this sign.
(Not sure? Pull up your birth chart on the CHANI app or our online chart tool.)
You can think of this cazimi as a reset, or full system wash, as the planet of action passes through the Sun’s purifying rays, beginning a new Mars cycle. This is a potent time to clarify the projects and goals you want to plunge into over the next few years — and to set intentions for how you will get bolder along the way.
