Overview for this Month: Scorpio (All)
September 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Scorpio:
Good energy is with you for networking and the support of friends this month, dear Scorpio. Still, there's also a strong theme of introspection, preparation, and attention to physical and emotional needs. A lot is brewing under the surface.
With an emphasis on your social sector as you begin September, you could be forming solid, long-lasting connections and friendships. Your sense of community is strong, and emotional satisfaction can come through your interactions. If you need to start fresh with a friend or group connection, transits tend to support it, especially after the New Moon on the 6th. A slight letdown might occur before moving forward with a new plan for happiness and fulfillment.
You might perform a generous act behind the scenes or anonymously, or you might thoroughly enjoy your personal time with Venus in your privacy sector until the 10th. Its harmony with Jupiter on the 5-6 boosts your domestic world. The comforts of home and family or solitude are pleasant and heartwarming. An open mind and heart help you grow and understand yourself and your personal relationships. Coming to someone's aid can be rewarding. Your love life can require some review – this is not the time for pushing things forward.
Mercury spends the month in your privacy sector, Mars moves into this area of your solar chart on the 14th, followed by the Sun on the 22nd. There can be support from behind the scenes or an unexpected source, perhaps something you had forgotten or overlooked. It's an excellent time to find ways to soothe your mind and meditate more often. Some reflection and discretion can benefit you now.
Mars in your soul sector from the 14th suggests a period of transformations and renovations, mainly on an emotional level. It's a time for strong signals from your subconscious, spurring you on and pointing your attention to problems that you may have overlooked or buried. You may feel a little less energetic as your priorities shuffle around, but redirecting your energies into tying up loose ends can do wonders for your mood now.
On the other hand, lovely Venus moves through your sign from the 10th forward, boosting your appeal and bringing you, quite gently, out of your shell. While you are certainly attracting positive and often romantic attention with this transit, your heart may not be ready to fully process it quite yet. A lot is going on inside of you and under the surface, but this air of unavailability may very well boost your appeal further. People see you in an especially good light as you host Venus, especially around the 29th.
The Full Moon on the 20th can bring a romantic or creative matter to your sudden attention, and emotions can be overflowing as you explore your feelings. It's an intuitive and creative Full Moon related to romance, creativity, children, or hobbies--a mission to improve your life in these areas can emerge.
From the 22nd, you commit further to getting more time for reflection, rest, and recollection. You are gathering your strength for busier times to come, but this isn't an idle time. In fact, you can actively reflect upon recent events and shedding attitudes and situations that have run their natural course. It can be a time of connecting with your more spiritual side. It's possible that you feel a little lost, unnoticed, or ignored until you understand the purpose of this period: recharge.
Mercury's retrograde here from the 27th reinforces the need to look back before pushing forward. Goals may not be clear or could need some refinement. This is a clean-up period on emotional or psychic levels, so aim to use it well!
Focus on one small area of your life at a time to get back on track, organized, or otherwise running smoothly. You can be especially productive around the home. You can feel quite motivated to make changes that help you simplify and strengthen your life. Getting rid of unnecessary material things can be helpful, and so can weeding out problematic thinking or attitudes that are not doing you any favors.

Scorpio (Born October 24 to November 2) and Scorpio Ascendant 0 to 10 degrees Scorpio:
September 2021 Scorpio Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 22nd:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar eleventh house. During this cycle, you are planting seeds for the future, dreaming up plans that you might begin to develop two months down the road, if they still seem viable then. You are more aware of the benefits of networking, and you might find some great ideas through others now. You might be working in a team now.
You could be questioning some of the rules you have been living by and you could be ready to try something totally new. You are more attracted to that which is progressive or unconventional during this cycle.
From September 22nd forward:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until September 10th:
Venus continues to transit through your solar twelfth house now. The twelfth house is a sector of endings, privacy, and mental health, and with Venus here, it's possible that you are reviewing your feelings for someone, or enjoying a more private love life for the time being. You may not be open with your affections for whatever reason now, and this shouldn't be a problem—it may be difficult to articulate, verbalize, or intellectualize your feelings for the time being. Doing some soul-searching as well as an enhanced ability to perceive other dimensions in love can lead you to a deeper understanding of your own love needs and possibly of a love relationship. Love might involve some form of sacrifice or simply a lot of giving and lending of support as opposed to receiving during this cycle.
From September 10th forward:
You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative. You are more gracious, well-behaved (superficial if you are not careful!), and likable now. Take advantage! It's a time when you turn heads, and it's also a period for extra attention to pleasures, pampering, and enjoyment.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
All month:
Mercury continues to transit your solar twelfth house. This is a cycle in which clear decision-making does not come easily. You are paying more attention to unspoken or hidden elements of any circumstance. You are seeing all sides to any given story, and forming a definite opinion does not seem "right" for the time being. Thoughts turn to the past. It's a strong period for gaining different perspectives on problems or issues in your life, as well as for reflection and research, but not the easiest time for presenting your ideas.
Mercury is retrograde from September 27th to October 18th:
All Mercury retrograde cycles particularly affect you in terms of communications with friends or groups, as well as intimate communications and shared financial resources, because Mercury rules these areas of your life. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to financial transactions and personal communications with friends, or, better yet, take this time to re-budget or rethink your plans instead of taking premature action. Group meetings may be postponed or cancelled, and friends may seem distant or confused.
Occurring in your solar twelfth house this time, extra care should be exercised when it comes to privacy matters. You may find that you are less able to rely on your intuition. Perhaps you're picking up the wrong cues or reading too much into situations. Whatever the case may be, for the time being, you may not feel that your intuition is serving you well. Be as non-judgmental as you can, but do keep an eye out for deceptiveness and falseness in others. You might unwittingly reveal something that you'd prefer to keep private. It would be wise to be especially clear when it comes to communicating about your inner world now; or take this time to re-examine issues rather than communicating about them prematurely.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 14th:
Mars continues to activate your solar eleventh house. You take a more direct approach to realizing your dreams now, rather than simply hoping and wishing.
You might find that you have more energy and enthusiasm for spending time with others, but arguments now may be with or on behalf of friends. You can be especially effective at encouraging others now, as well as at leading or organizing a group.
From September 15th forward:
With Mars moving through your solar twelfth house, this is the time to research and reflect upon your goals. It can be a time when past actions catch up with you--and this is not necessarily a bad thing!
It could also be a time when much of your energy is channeled into private matters, or when you prefer that others not observe what you are doing. This is natural--you may just as well do your best work alone for now. Unconscious behavior patterns could influence the way you assert yourself.
Some may experience insomnia during this phase, especially if they are not allowing themselves the chance to recoup and if they are not letting their intuition serve them. Others may enjoy a more active dreaming life (this includes day-dreaming), and, if allowed to run free, the imagination can serve them very well, especially with regards to goals and new concepts.

Scorpio (Born November 3 to 12) and Scorpio Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Scorpio:
September 2021 Scorpio Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun lights your solar eleventh house. The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true this month. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, light-hearted, cosmopolitan, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention. Connections can be made now and networking pays off, or at least satisfies. Being part of a community or circle of friends and building your social network is important to you at this time.
This is a rather happy, goal-oriented cycle. A lively agenda is promised, you're attracting quite a bit of interest, and your energy for making contact with others is high. A stronger sense of community is with you during this cycle. Relationships take on a fun, if impersonal, tone now. Activities with children (especially others' children) may increase. You are more stimulated by all that is unconventional during this cycle, and your ideas are original and progressive now. This is a time to follow your dreams and ideals, and to plant a seed in the form of a wish for the future.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 19th:
Venus continues to transit through your solar twelfth house now. The twelfth house is a sector of endings, privacy, and mental health, and with Venus here, it's possible that you are reviewing your feelings for someone, or enjoying a more private love life for the time being. You may not be open with your affections for whatever reason now, and this shouldn't be a problem—it may be difficult to articulate, verbalize, or intellectualize your feelings for the time being.

You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative.

It's a time when you turn heads, and it's also a period for extra attention to pleasures, pampering, and enjoyment.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until September 6th:
Mercury continues to journey through your solar eleventh house. This is a time when conversations with friends and various networking activities are much appreciated and offer learning experiences. Your ideas just now are especially progressive and unconventional, as you are questioning the rules you typically live by and entertaining some wild ideas.
Not all of these ideas are necessarily going to last or lead to new projects, but it's a time of dreaming up new possibilities and new possible solutions to problems. You are especially interested in spending time with people who are like-minded. Social interactions are more frequent, light, and fun during this cycle.
From September 6th forward:
Your mind is focused on private matters and past issues while Mercury transits the twelfth house of your solar chart. This is a time when you are least likely to speak out of turn or to express yourself freely. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers.
This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid getting dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt. Creative endeavors could prosper now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities.
You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude in order to get your thoughts together or to be mentally productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position of Mercury is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order.

Scorpio (Born November 13 to 22) and Scorpio Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Scorpio:
September 2021 Scorpio Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
September 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until September 12th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar tenth house. Satisfaction and fulfillment during this cycle come from doing your professional best, shining as a responsible and capable person, and contributing to the world in practical ways. You might have a chance to receive acknowledgement or praise for your work or good character now. Landing support from authority figures is easier at this time. Avoid the pitfalls of pride or arrogance standing in your way of success.
From September 12th forward:
The Sun lights your solar eleventh house. The Sun illuminates your sector of friends, groups, and dreams coming true this month. It's a sociable sector of your chart, and that's exactly how you are feeling--happy, light-hearted, cosmopolitan, and social. Group affiliations capture your attention.

Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
From September 2-28:
Venus is spending some time in "hibernation" in your privacy sector. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that your love life is stagnant, but that your affection is expressed behind closed doors. Attraction to secrets and whispers characterize this period, although for some, it can also be a time of endings, relationship concerns, and wistfulness. Personal and social contacts may be secretive, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some loneliness or romantic frustration. However, this can also be a deliciously private and intimate time.
From September 29th forward:
You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now.

You may feel a little less energetic as your priorities shuffle around, but redirecting your energies into tying up loose ends can do wonders for your mood now.
On the other hand, lovely Venus moves through your sign from the 10th forward, boosting your appeal and bringing you, quite gently, out of your shell. While you are certainly attracting positive and often romantic attention with this transit, your heart may not be ready to fully process it quite yet. A lot is going on inside of you and under the surface, but this air of unavailability may very well boost your appeal further. People see you in an especially good light as you host Venus, especially around the 29th.
The Full Moon on the 20th can bring a romantic or creative matter to your sudden attention, and emotions can be overflowing as you explore your feelings. It's an intuitive and creative Full Moon related to romance, creativity, children, or hobbies--a mission to improve your life in these areas can emerge.
From the 22nd, you commit further to getting more time for reflection, rest, and recollection. You are gathering your strength for busier times to come, but this isn't an idle time. In fact, you can actively reflect upon recent events and shedding attitudes and situations that have run their natural course. It can be a time of connecting with your more spiritual side. It's possible that you feel a little lost, unnoticed, or ignored until you understand the purpose of this period: recharge.
Mercury's retrograde here from the 27th reinforces the need to look back before pushing forward. Goals may not be clear or could need some refinement. This is a clean-up period on emotional or psychic levels, so aim to use it well!
Focus on one small area of your life at a time to get back on track, organized, or otherwise running smoothly. You can be especially productive around the home. You can feel quite motivated to make changes that help you simplify and strengthen your life. Getting rid of unnecessary material things can be helpful, and so can weeding out problematic thinking or attitudes that are not doing you any favors.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the second house of your solar chart from June 21 to July 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both June and July’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
