This is an interesting time to be alive, Scorpio, in the midst, as you are, of creative and transformative life situations. You are entirely serious regarding your commitment to get ahead, and recognizing that as well as bringing in the dollars, this involves the inner work that will bring you peace of mind. You continue to do battle with the demons of your past, in the form of old patterns of behavior stemming from early wounding that no longer serve you. The good news is that you can look ahead and see progress, and that in doing so you are heeding the call of your own spiritual evolution. Communication with your peers serves as an excellent outlet and allows you to come to a better understanding of yourself and your dealings with others.

As the month begins, you are focused on new horizons for yourself mentally. An air of exploration and of new learning is in the works for you as the calendar turns over and a wide-open twelve-month period commences. There is a strong pattern of planetary archetypes Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto that perfected in the final ten days of the past year, and that hits your chart, since Saturn currently resides in your sign. The message of this powerful configuration is that you are far from done with self-discovery.

Jupiter is the focus of this pattern, residing in your sector of intimacy and personal evolution, and the time is ripe for exploration of your vast interior spaces, the unconscious realms within you that in subtle ways have so much to do with every decision that you make and yet can escape the scrutiny of your more conscious understanding. You are on a great voyage of discovery that pays enormous dividends to the extent that you are willing to open to it. At base, you are still attempting top fid out who you are and where headed in this new year and young decade.

With Jupiter so highly emphasized there is an optimistic flavor to these investigations, although it is equally true that Saturn holds you back at present from fully flying ahead. This could be experienced as a slowing down of whatever you attempt; you find that you have to try harder to make progress, but this has the beneficial effect of allowing you to pay closer attention to what is going on inside you as you forge onward.

With Pluto residing in your communications sector you might find that the depth of what you are conveying to others at this turning of the year is oftentimes astounding. With transformative Pluto so strongly configured, massive changes are in the offing. With the best of potential interpretations you are entering upon this new year with a beginner mind, a newborn's simplicity of understanding, a realm whereby everything is negotiable and nothing is impossible. This is a valuable asset for you at this critical juncture, because what you need to discard are your preconceptions. rather than being caught in the generalities of a lifetime of experience, which can in the end prevent you from getting where you need to go, you bring a freshly pragmatic point of view to bear that will take you far as you continue to explore your depths.
