Eleditor’s note: Astrology isn’t a religion. We’re not sure it’s a science, either. It’s magic, maybe. But, as with feng shui, say, things affect things. So as long as we don’t go blaming our problems on the stars, as long as we assume responsibility for our own actions…well, hell, a little auspicious coincidence and applicable wisdom can’t hurt. And so, with that grain of salt…enjoy!

This is Your Year: Relationships, Career, Finance and Life

This should be a very interesting year of possibilities for you—with tests and lessons since Saturn is transiting through your Sun sign. This will mean that you’ll be working hard to build a new foundation for something that will last far into your future. For some of you that could mean building a new relationship, career or completing a project. Whatever it is, understand that it will be a long-term investment of your resources, time and energy. So, make sure you are truly dedicated to achieving your goal.

Don’t forget that it will be up to you to maintain a balance between your career and work relationships and your personal and family relationships. Remember that all work and no play will “burn you out.” It will also cause problems and conflicts with those you love.

Relationships & Romance            

Love relationships may be varied for you, depending on whether you’re an October or November Scorpio. Those born in October have a great possibility of falling in love with someone new or having a deeper romantic relationship with someone you’re already with.

If you are a November Scorpio, love relationships are likely to be more challenging because you have so many life and career responsibilities that are demanding your attention. You’re likely to be “all work and no play.” Because of this tendency, make sure to bring greater balance to your life. Create boundaries so that you’re able to devote enough time to your love and family relationships.If you don’t do this, you’ll destroy the intimacy you’ve worked hard to build and find yourself engaged in conflict and angry battles with those you love. 

Because of the pressures and demands of your work, expect to need a lot of alone time. This may require that you really communicate well by telling your partner what you need. This is the best way for you to solicit their understanding and support.

If you’re not in a relationship, make sure to tell any “potential” partners that your time for a relationship is limited. By the spring of 2015, the demands you face will relax and so will you. You’ll have more time for your intimate relationships. Meanwhile, manage the expectations that others will have of you.

Career

Expect to be working hard in your career with others making huge demands of you. The pressures you experience will force you to re-evaluate whether or not you want to continue doing what you’re doing or find something new to do for a living. Your final decision will depend on what you think you’re capable of mentally, emotionally and physically; and what the financial rewards are likely to be for your commitment.

Expect some relief from the demands of your job by the end of this year. In fact, as you get into early 2015, you’ll begin to receive some opportunities and rewards for all your hard work. This could show itself with your being given additional responsibilities, higher pay, and even a promotion. You’ll receive more respect and be held in far greater esteem by those you work with.

In fact, many Scorpios will have the opportunity to assume a position of power and authority at work because of your expertise and accomplishments. You’ll feel pride in receiving your due because of your past dedication and commitment to achieving your goal. You’ll realize that you’ve built a new foundation for your future. But be sure that you’re still committed to it because more hard work will be necessary over the next several years to complete what you’ve started. Ask yourself if what you’re doing is worthwhile and giving you the satisfaction that you’re “making a difference.”         

You’ll find that November and December are excellent months for you to initiate new plans and business activities that pertain to your job or career.However, one word of caution: be careful in your interactions with others. Avoid being tactless and getting into arguments that may win a battle but lose you the war. To achieve your ultimate goal, you need the cooperation and support of others.

Finances

Financially, you’ve been building up your resources in 2014. But it’s likely that you’ve encountered financial struggles because of extraordinary expenses that have “tapped” your resources. So, watch your spending to avoid falling into debt. The next 12 months are a time to be very conservative in the way you invest your money. Live within your means. As you get further into 2015, more money will flow into your life and reduce the burden you’ve felt.

Scorpios: make sure that you’re excited about the relationship you’re in or the work you’re doing. You’re in a period of self-evaluation and re-commitment. If you choose wisely, 2015 will bring you rewards for your hard work, sacrifice and dedication.
