An Open Letter to Scorpio for August 2026
Dear Scorpio,
How are you keeping my friend? I hope things haven’t been too hard on you. Every time one turns on the TV these days there seems to be an endless stream of alarming news headlines. Personally, I suspect a lot of it is just scaremongering. Nevertheless, it’s still very worrying and makes it imperative - now more than ever before - to look to the heavens in an attempt to discern if there is an alternative narrative written in the stars. So with the August lunations (New Moon and Full Moon) aligning in the cosmos, I thought there’s no better time for me to sit down at my computer with a cup of black coffee and write you a letter.
The New Moon: The Sun's harmonious trine aspect with wise old Saturn encourages a deepened sense of personal responsibility and constructive professional ambition. Matters of the heart may experience gentle renewal, especially in past social and romantic relationships, while your attentiveness toward responsibilities involving children may grow with care and dedication. Wisdom and support often come from older or established individuals, offering valuable lessons to help you focus on long-term goals with patience and hope. This period holds promise for executives, politicians, and business professionals. Progress in business and professional affairs is attainable, though it requires patience and perseverance, as success unfolds gradually. It is also a favorable time to address serious legal matters with integrity and thoughtful consideration. Your natural qualities of organization, efficiency, and dedication will shine, earning the respect of those in authority. Creative individuals will find inspiration to bring their ideas into practical form, enhancing their work with structure and clarity.
The Sun conjunct the Moon inspires personal initiatives in family and domestic affairs, fostering dynamic and meaningful interactions. This is an ideal time for family gatherings and social activities at home, as well as for enriching your domestic environment through artistic or DIY projects. Concerns related to children’s education or school access are likely to ease, bringing relief and optimism. Your home may become a welcoming center for educational, religious, and cultural activities, attracting visitors and fostering community bonds. For some, this transit encourages thoughtful consideration of relocation, provided decisions are made with careful research and mindfulness.
Moon conjunct Jupiter awakens heartfelt patriotic or spiritual feelings rooted in childhood, encouraging the application of these principles in daily life. Your emotional outlook is serene and peaceful, radiating kindness, benevolence, and understanding toward family members and those in need. Increased prosperity is indicated, especially in sectors related to food, farming, real estate, and domestic products and services. This is a favorable time for educational, cultural, and business endeavors, approached with optimism and care. A gentle caution: if your Natal Horoscope is not aligned well with current planetary positions, be mindful of growing tendency toward sentimentality or overindulgence in food, drink or games of chance. Practice self-compassion and moderation to maintain balance and well-being.
The trine aspect between the Sun and Saturn reinforces your sense of responsibility and ambition, encouraging steady progress toward meaningful goals. Renewed connections in social and romantic relationships may bring warmth and healing. Guidance from experienced individuals supports your journey toward long-term success. Embrace relaxing hobbies to soothe worries, remembering that lasting achievements take time.
This period also favors collaboration among local councillors, aspiring politicians, and ambitious businesspeople working on confidential projects with mutual respect and shared vision. For many Scorpios, meeting life’s necessities may require sacrifices in communal family leisure time. Prioritize essentials with care, knowing that your efforts contribute to the well-being of your household. Moreover, this is a potentially favorable time for managing serious affairs such as legacies and charitable donations. Your organizational skills and dedication are likely to be recognized, potentially leading to increased responsibility and opportunities. While you may face pressure to improve rather private matters, approach challenges with resilience and an openness to constructive criticism . Meditative, contemplative and creative individuals will find renewed motivation to apply their ideas practically, enhancing their work with thoughtful form and structure. Writers may overcome the dreaded “writer’s block” and may restart their “magnum opus”. I sincerely wish you well.
Moon conjunct Jupiter: Your home may flourish as a hub for education, religious, and cultural activities, welcoming visitors and fostering connection. Some readers may consider a change of address around this time, guided by thoughtful reflection and, perhaps, at the invitation of a favoured Aunt, Uncle or Grandparents. This transit encourages embracing spiritual principles with kindness and understanding.
A minority of Scorpio may seek out the comfort and reassurance gifted by the acceptance of traditional religious values and the practice of communal worship. Your expectation and experiences might foster emotional serenity and act as a counter-ballance to currently felt anxiety and stress. An abundance of food, warmth and the basic necessities of life begin to permeate your world, and fill you with optimism and hope for the future.
The Moon trine Saturn offers a potentially favourable time to organize your affairs with practical wisdom. Emotions stabilize, and a grounded approach prevails in business and domestic responsibilities. Emotional loyalty strengthens ties among friends and family, enhancing relationships. Engage more readily with older or established individuals in order to manage your affairs responsibly. Their accrued life-experience and honest advice may help you considerably in numerous undertakings. Furthermore, financial stability is fostered by careful organization and avoidance of unnecessary expenses.
The Full Moon: May bring challenges with female authority figures and family members, potentially leading to emotional confrontations. Approach these moments with patience and empathy to navigate difficulties with grace. Be cautious with social and romantic activities, and avoid impulsive financial decisions influenced by emotional impulses.
The Moon in the 5th House highlights emotional concerns related to romance, pleasure, children, and social activities. Sensitivity may be heightened, especially for women experiencing maternal impulses. While romantic and social engagements can bring joy, be mindful of overindulgence that may lead to wasted time or resources.The current Moon trine Mars aspect energizes constructive action in home and love-life matters. You manifest both with increased self-confidence and self-assurance. Express your feelings honestly and decisively, clearing emotional blockages without harm. Family dynamics may benefit from adjustments fostering harmony and mutual support.
Mars in the Ninth House encourages passionate promotion of personal, religious, educational, philosophical, political, and cultural beliefs. While enthusiasm is valuable and to be praised; be ever vigilant to avoid fanaticism or unnecessary conflict. Opportunities for travel, business with foreigners, and cultural engagement may arise, inviting growth and adventure. Enjoy.
The Moon square Uranus in the 10th House suggests emotional fluctuations and unpredictable interactions in professional and domestic spheres. Practice patience and avoid taking frustrations out on loved ones. Be cautious about who you invite into your home, thereby protecting both your valuables, safety and emotional well-being. Unexpected challenges related to finances, legal matters, or household issues may arise but won’t last long. Counter these minor hic-ups with calm and practical solutions and save for unexpected bills by avoiding impulsive spending. Uranus in the 10th House brings awareness of your public and family reputation. Perhaps one of your posts on social media may go viral. This might be an appropriate time to start some kind of imaginative home based business on the web. Why not do a little research in your spare time? You never know you might become a millionaire.
Just before I go can I share one more thought with you? Scorpios sometimes get bad press, so to speak, and are portrayed as nothing more than cold-hearted, ever-plotting Machiavelleans. That is so unfair. That is so inaccurate. Numerous Scorpios do tend to keep themselves to themselves. And many are secretive. That is to say many of them are secret worriers. If you are a little bit like that, go easy on yourself. Don’t continually compare yourself unfavourably to others: be gentle with yourself. Accept yourself for who you really are; and be content to spread a little Love in the world. Sadly, the world needs Peace and Love - now - like never before. Can you donate some?
In short: be content to be yourself, while trying your best to show kindness and compassion to others, because that’s what really matters in life. In fact, why not make a habit of doing little acts of kindness for others, while ensuring you don't compromise your own personal safety. That goes without saying.
Well folks, I think that’s me all written out for this letter. So until I write again “God Bless and Protect”.
Bye bye.
Yours sincerely,
Guy Doleman: Astrologer
