Positions for Monday, 12 October 2026 (London time) — New moon, moon in Scorpio.
Portrait of the sign
Sun in Scorpio: a whole identity that does nothing by halves: total commitment or nothing.
In traditional astrology, this sign acts with intensity, depth and secrecy. Its element, Water, describes its temperament; its mode, fixed, the way it enters into action; its ruling planet, Pluto (Mars in the older tradition), the register where it feels most at home.
Moon in Scorpio: intense emotions jealous of their privacy: all or nothing, and a memory for wounds. This line applies to those whose natal Moon is in this sign — the birth chart calculation will tell you.
In love
Venus in Scorpio: you love all the way: passion, exclusivity, difficulty forgiving. Venus never strays more than two signs from the Sun, so it is often in the Sun sign itself or in one of its neighbours. For the full love portrait, read love sign by sign; to compare two birth dates, try the love compatibility test.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dates of Scorpio?
23 October – 21 November, as a rule: the Sun enters a sign at a time that varies from year to year, sometimes by a day. If you were born on the first or last day, the calculation by date and time of birth settles it.
Should I also read my rising sign?
Yes, if you know it: the ascendant describes how the day comes to you, the Sun sign what you make of it. Read both cards. Calculate your ascendant with your time of birth.
