: scorpio - your year in the stars :
This year is characterised by a changing focus, as the spotlight shifts from highlighting the material world, to a new emphasis on a sphere of much wider experience. During your astrological year 2007/8 you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy a broader range of all life has to offer, expanding your perspective, your knowledge, your philosophical overview and the scope of your experience together at the same time.

Perhaps this is just as well, because initially and from a not so positive angle, closer to home things remain confusing as ever. The circumstances surrounding how you have arrived here are less than ideal, with disappointment and dissatisfaction never far away. In the end this is a constructive process, because it allows you to look at your current situation and to see what you really need to improve. Whether it’s your family, your domestic situation, where you are living or your actual home itself, you can be sure any perceived imperfections are much more noticeable now. It’s your chance to start forming in your mind’s eye, an idealised picture of how you really want things to be.
All this comes down to the planet Neptune, far out in the solar system and moving very slowly. Consequently the events of this year are linked to those during previous years and you’re unlikely to find complete resolution during the twelve months ahead either. Chiron adds to the feeling of disenchantment and even hurt in the past, but stresses a positive outcome if you’re able to persevere. You need to keep going with a sense of optimism and a simple faith in the eventual resolution of your situation, because ultimately it will work out for you despite how you’re feeling at the moment. Be ready for it to take longer than you thought and be prepared for how things look as you go along, not to be how they turn out in the end.

Unfortunately, it would be wise to expect the other members of your family not to prove dependable during the year ahead. In extreme cases, it could be somebody close to you and who you’d least expect, is actually working against your interests. This might be in a very subtle way and not something you’ll be able to put your finger on easily. It will take a while for the situation to clarify and for you to figure out what’s happening, it may be somebody you’d usually trust, while those you’d suspect more readily prove to be blameless. Meanwhile, your children if you have them are growing fast and have lots of surprises, plus the odd headache, in store. If you don’t have any kids and don’t want them, it’ll be as well to be extra cautious. If you have been trying for a family with little success so far, that could all turn around just when you’re least expecting it.

With all this activity on the home front, it is good that life away from home is calmer. The emphasis on your work is diminished and there’s more of a feeling that it’s your quality of life you’re interested in, rather than just the outward trappings of success. If you have been struggling towards the achievement of certain quantifiable objectives, you’re today much closer towards their attainment.
: scorpio - october 2007/october 2008 :
Now you’re wondering how best you can take what you have done and put it into practice to improve your life. After all, the hardships you’ve endured were meant to make things better and if it doesn’t turn out this way, then really what’s the point? If much of this has been connected with a career change, with a significant adjustment to your income or with a big alteration in your life direction generally, you can expect the pace to quieten down between late January and the middle of June 2008. After that there is a final round of change to come, with your last opportunity to make the differences you want before November 2008. So far you’ve revised your outlook, the things you think are most important and what matters most to you. During your previous year 2006/7, you've already been able to pursue new avenues regarding many of these factors and so currently feel a greater sense of optimism, enthusiasm and joie de vivre as you move towards the future.

During the coming twelve months you’ll find that any way you can expand your horizons, deepen your perspective and extend your knowledge will work consistently to your advantage. You can do this by studying and through formal education, or by pursuing a particular interest along a more independent route. Travel is another way of broadening your mind. Those from other backgrounds, of different ages, nationalities, religions and races could be set to play an important part and if you’re single, it’s from one or more of these quarters that your romantic opportunities arise. Look out for unusual, individualistic, clever and eccentric people who are poles apart from those you’ve known before…
