Scorpio Horoscope Today — July 8, 2025

WaterOct 23 — Nov 21Ruling Planet: Pluto

You are the sign that feels everything in the deep end, Scorpio, and today the water is murky but full of treasure. Pluto, your modern ruler, is retrograde in Aquarius in your second house of money and self-worth, opposing Mercury in Leo in your tenth house of career and public life. This is a day when your professional identity and your sense of personal value are going to collide, and the collision is going to reveal something you’ve been avoiding.

Let’s start with the Mercury-Pluto opposition. This is the most exact aspect of the day, and it’s a conversation—either internal or external—about power, truth, and control. You might have a meeting with a boss or a client that feels like a test. Someone might challenge your authority or question your expertise. Or you might be the one doing the challenging, finally speaking a truth you’ve been holding back. The opposition is uncomfortable, but it’s also clarifying. Something that has been hidden is coming to light, and once it’s in the open, you can deal with it. The trine between Mercury and the Moon in Sagittarius, in your third house of communication, supports honest, direct expression. You don’t have to be aggressive, but you do have to be clear.

Lilith is in your sign, Scorpio, and it’s quincunx Venus in Gemini in your eighth house of shared resources, intimacy, and transformation. This is a subtle but potent aspect. Lilith represents the parts of ourselves that we’ve been taught to hide—our anger, our desire, our power. The quincunx to Venus suggests that something you’ve been repressing in a relationship or a financial partnership is ready to surface. You might feel a sudden urge to assert a boundary that you’ve been too polite to set. Or you might realize that you’ve been giving too much and receiving too little. The quincunx asks you to adjust the balance, not by taking something away, but by adding your own needs into the equation.

The Sun in Cancer is in your ninth house of travel, philosophy, and higher learning, trining the North Node in Pisces in your fifth house of creativity, pleasure, and romance. This is a beautiful aspect for expanding your horizons in a way that also feeds your soul. You might have an idea for a creative project that feels both personal and universal. You might meet someone who challenges your beliefs in a way that excites you. The Sun is also sextile Mars in Virgo, in your eleventh house of friendships and community, which suggests that a friend or a group could help you take the next step. Don’t be afraid to ask for support.

Venus and Uranus are conjunct in Gemini in your eighth house, and they’re sextile Saturn in Aries in your sixth house of daily work and health. This is a supportive aspect for making a change in your financial or intimate life that is both bold and responsible. You might decide to invest in something unconventional, or to have a conversation about a taboo topic with a partner. The sextile to Saturn ensures that if you take a calculated risk, you can build something lasting.
