Scorpio is the fixed water sign, ruled by Pluto in modern astrology, and the tradition associates it with depth, intimacy, trust, shared resources and transformation. Astrologers read a Scorpio new moon as a quiet beginning that starts beneath the surface. Venus so close is taken to bring relationships and values into focus, with an emphasis on honesty. A practical suggestion: have one candid conversation you have been postponing, keeping it calm and specific.
