Weekly Horoscope for Scorpio

Week of 5th January 2026 to 11th January 2026

Rita Ann Freeman's Weekly Forecast:

Family:

Dear Scorpio, this week asks you to pace your intensity so it serves you instead of steering you. The New Year still feels like a fresh vow, and the Full Moon from Saturday, January 3rd, has sharpened your instincts while thinning your patience. You can accomplish a lot, but calm timing is your secret weapon, especially when other people bring their emotions to your doorstep. Monday, the 5th, with the Moon in Leo, you're highly productive early and can wrap up loose ends by afternoon. As evening arrives, impatience rises, so avoid sensitive topics and don't argue when you're tired or hungry. Step away, cool down, and return with a softer voice before a small irritation becomes a bigger scene. Tuesday, the 6th, is accomplished once you get moving, even if the morning starts later than you prefer. The Sun and Venus in Capricorn smooth family interactions, and practical conversations land better than emotional ones. Handle appointments, scheduling, or household decisions today, because clarity comes more easily by late afternoon. Wednesday, the 7th, brings focused purpose and a sense that you're building something meaningful. Venus and Mars add drive, so a special plan, a family milestone, or a heartfelt surprise can come together beautifully. Let others contribute, even if they do it differently than you would, because shared effort becomes the memory. Thursday, the 8th, continues that supportive momentum and rewards your original ideas. As the Moon moves into Libra, cooperation improves, and it becomes easier to negotiate who does what at home without turning it into a power struggle. One small routine change can finally stick and reduce daily friction. Friday, the 9th, is full of calls, messages, errands, and coordination. Keep your tone calm and your requests specific, because optimism can make people overpromise or assume you meant more than you said. Confirm details, repeat the plan once, and then let it be. Saturday, the 10th, the Last Quarter Moon in Libra favors cleanup and balance. Reset one situation early, especially anything that feels unfair, unfinished, or emotionally cluttered. After that, give yourself real downtime so your nervous system can settle. Sunday, the 11th, the Moon enters Scorpio, and feelings deepen quickly. Avoid forcing answers or testing loyalty, because pressure can trigger defensiveness. Choose a soothing ritual, quiet honesty, and loyal company, and you'll end the week restored.

Love:

Romance does well this week, especially from Tuesday through Thursday, because the energy supports maturity, loyalty, and forward movement. You are not interested in vague affection right now. You want sincerity, effort, and proof. Midweek, passion can bring exciting developments, but your best romantic choices come from staying grounded rather than getting swept away by intensity. Late-week optimism is high, which can make feelings grow quickly, so keep your expectations realistic and let actions confirm your promises. If you are single, this is a strong week for meeting someone promising, particularly midweek when conversation flows, and intentions become clearer. Choose the person who follows through, not the one who dazzles. A simple date or honest exchange can reveal long-term potential quickly. If you are in a relationship, focus on upgrades that make daily life easier, not grand speeches. Clear one old issue gently, then replace it with a shared plan. If a celebration or family milestone is brewing, planning it together can deepen intimacy. Sunday's emotional intensity asks for tenderness, not interrogation. Offer warmth first, and closeness follows. Read the weekly partner horoscope...

Friendship:

Your friendships are active this week, and you may feel like the busiest bee in the garden, moving from person to person with surprising ease. Early in the week, you are the one friends trust for guidance, especially if they are worried, undecided, or overwhelmed. Listen first, then offer one practical next step, because too many opinions can muddy the truth. The most helpful thing you can do is keep your advice clean and your boundaries clear. Midweek, invitations and small gatherings may appear, and you may be drawn to plan something meaningful for someone you love. If a friend pulls you aside for help, notice whether they want support or an ally in a conflict. If it's a lovers' quarrel or a "he said, she said" situation, do not get involved. You can be compassionate without becoming a referee. By the weekend, the Libra Moon favors balance and social ease. Saturday is excellent for a friendly reset, a short visit, laughter, and a calm conversation that restores goodwill. Sunday is better for loyal, intimate companionship rather than big groups. Protect confidences, avoid gossip, and choose the friends who make you feel safe being yourself.

Career:

This week can be constructive and profitable, but it demands emotional discipline in the workplace. The biggest rule is simple: do not take sides. Office politics, cliques, and casual gossip can contaminate your environment quickly, and your instincts may tempt you to confront what feels unfair. Resist. Keep your focus on outcomes, not commentary, and let your work speak for itself. Monday through Wednesday, it's best to deal with authority figures, decision-makers, or strong personalities, especially when you stay professional and measured. Tuesday's steady tone supports smoother collaboration, and Wednesday's drive helps you advance a targeted plan. Thursday remains productive, especially for ongoing projects and helpful teamwork, but keep communications clear and documented. Friday is highly constructive for scheduling, negotiations, and follow-up. If you need something, ask directly, confirm in writing, and keep it polite. From Wednesday through Saturday, expenses may rise in a "takes money to make money" way. It could be travel, equipment, training, or a project-related cost. Before you commit, confirm who pays, what is reimbursed, and what the return looks like. Saturday's Last Quarter Moon supports revisions and cleanup, so refine terms, tighten timelines, and remove assumptions. If you stay neutral, precise, and calm, you end the week stronger than you began.

General Overview by Deborah Browning

Dear Scorpio, this week rewards the strategist in you. Plan for every outcome, even the ones you'd rather not imagine. Monday's Leo Moon highlights responsibility, so put the toughest tasks at the top of your list and work your way down. It's not glamorous, but it's powerful, because once the hardest piece is handled, everything else moves.

Tuesday's Capricorn energy helps you negotiate, delegate, and maintain high standards without sounding harsh. Others will promise their share, but you're the one who makes the moving parts fit together. Give every detail its moment; a small oversight can echo later.

Midweek brings a surge of drive and focus, and your mind and body work as one. Quick suggestions you offer now can save time, money, or stress, and people will listen. Later in the week, optimism runs high, but avoid grand promises that rely on perfect conditions. Saturday's Libra Last Quarter Moon favors clearing a hidden snag behind the scenes. By Sunday, the Moon enters Scorpio, and intensity rises. Let actions speak louder than explanations, and accept support when it's offered. 🦂🔧 Read more...
