Since Mercury dropped into Scorpio this past November 5, the social spotlight’s been on you! Maybe you even had an Instagram spouse following you around town to record it all! Hopefully you soaked up all the attention you deserved, because on Wednesday, November 24, messenger Mercury shifts gears and heads into Sagittarius and your second house of practical luxury and values. For the past few weeks, your head’s been consumed with big questions like, “What’s next in my life?” Now, your planning powers kick in, helping you answer any riddles with concrete, practical solutions between now and December 13. If a big decision’s ahead, start by tuning in to your body. When you think about a certain possibility, what sensations arise? The second house is somatic, meaning physical messages can reveal things your intellect cannot. Spending time in nature can do wonders to help you integrate it all. Bundle up for regular walks or think about rerouting your holiday plans to a woodsy cabin or beachfront hammock. Mercury here will turn your mind to your money, too. Holiday indulgences could raise your debt ceiling if you don’t get your budget in order now. Clarify what you have to spend on gifts, entertainment and travel—and what you need to set aside for your basic monthly costs like food and shelter. This will be a quieter cycle for you, Scorpio. Don’t make the mistake of turning your attention to other people’s problems—that will just create a major distraction. With Mercury here until December 13, you need a few weeks to digest everything that’s happened over the past year. Saturday’s quarter moon in Virgo can restore equilibrium to friendships, a collaborative project or your digital life. For some Scorpios, that might mean that it’s time for a little digital detox to wean yourself off a few time-sucking apps. It’s all about balance! If you’ve let yourself fall down a rabbit hole of posting/checking Likes/posting more and can’t seem to tear yourself away, you might need to take drastic measures. Think how much you’d accomplish with that bonus time! For those who have a handle on their device-addiction, this is a perfect opportunity to spiff up your online profiles, especially on professional and dating sites. You might think you’re flying under the radar, but if you’ve got any presence on these sites, people ARE checking you out. Be a little ruthless with yourself. Anything that doesn’t 100 percent represent you the way you’d want a future boss or romantic partner to see you: Take it down! If you have your own site or online portfolio, it might be time for a refresh on the design or type. This quarter moon can also help you “right-size” your group participation. If you’re still a part of some organization that no longer aligns with your values, don’t feel obliged to renew. On the other hand, if you’re growing more interested in something, volunteer more of your time or ideas. There could be fringe benefits to THAT membership!
