Your 2024 Venus in Scorpio Horoscope: What’s in Store for Your Zodiac Sign From September 22 to October 17
Discover what this intense planetary shift means for your sign when it comes to romance, beauty and relationships.
Since the end of August, Venus, the planet of love and beauty, has been right at home in a sign it rules, bringing more balance, harmony and diplomacy to relationships of all kinds. But as of Sunday, September 22 at 10:36 p.m. ET/7:36 p.m. PT, the way in which we connect with others, earn and express ourselves through beauty and style will take on a more intense, emotionally-charged and deeply-feeling tone as a result of Venus entering Scorpio. Since Thursday, August 29, Venus has been in Libra, the cardinal air sign in which it’s at home, or in domicile, meaning capable of functioning at its height power. But as it shifts into Scorpio, the planet of romance will be in detriment, or challenged to express itself at full strength. The silver lining: We’ll be compelled to get more creative with our approach to Venusian areas of life, whether that’s heart-to-hearts, money making endeavors or creative undertakings.
Here, all you need to know in order to make the most of Venus in Scorpio 2024.
What’s the meaning of Venus in Scorpio?
In astrology, Venus oversees relationships, beauty, pleasure, values and money, and annually, the planet makes its way through Scorpio, the eighth sign of the zodiac, symbolized by the Scorpio. To understand Scorpio energy, consider the water sign’s co-ruling planets: go-getter Mars, which oversees action, energy, drive, passion and sex, and regenerative Pluto, which oversees power, control and transformation. In relationships, those born under the sign of the Scorpion are laser-focused on commitment, loyalty and intimacy. They come off as fearless, courageous and even a bit possessive.
As one of the fixed signs (the others are Taurus, Leo and Aquarius), Scorpio is resolute when pursuing just about any goal — but might also suffer from obstinacy and black-and-white thinking.
When Venus is in Scorpio, you might be more inclined to deepen your bonds, cut out other to-dos so you can spend more quality time with a significant other, friends or loved ones and see social plans as hard and fast. This is also a chance to reflect on and potentially grapple with reciprocity in relationships in order to better understand if both parties are showing up fully or if one person is all in while the other is behaving in a fair weather way.
And because Venus is also the planet of earning and values, you could be inspired to bring a more power-seeking, in control boss energy to your professional and money making pursuits.
What can you expect during Venus in Scorpio 2024
Although Venus moves through Scorpio annually, all of the planets move at different rates through the zodiac, so the social planet’s meet-ups with other celestial bodies changes from year to year. A few must-knows: In 2024, on Friday, October 4, Venus in Scorpio will form a sweet trine to taskmaster Saturn in dreamy Pisces, which can promote commitment and loyalty in relationships. You could feel closer to your significant other, loved one, friend or business partner — and more ready to “do the work” of bonding and showing up for one another.
On Tuesday, October 8, Venus forms another trine to go-getter Mars in fellow water sign, sentimental Cancer, which boosts creativity and the ability to attract pleasurable experiences.
You could be inspired to strike out on your own when tackling an artistic project or experimenting with your beauty routine — or crave more freedom in your relationships when Venus opposes gamechanger Uranus in Taurus on Monday, October 14. And the next day, on Tuesday, October 15, Venus gets cozy with mystical Neptune in imaginative, empathic Pisces, making for a moment in which spirituality, magic and whimsy are easier to access.
Here, how Venus in Libra 2024 will affect you based on your sign. (Be sure to read both your sun and your rising sign if you know it. If you don’t, you can find it in your birth chart or by using this CafeAstrology calculator.)
Aries
Your sex life, deepest-rooted emotions and desires within your nearest and dearest relationships are a key focus now, thanks to Venus spending time in your intimacy sector. You’ll want to feel even more bonded to your significant other or other loved ones. And while you tend to be rather direct and to-the-point in how you relate and communicate, this period could inspire you to embrace vulnerability and wear your heart on your sleeve more than usual, which can only serve to make you feel more connected and in sync with the people you adore most.
Taurus
You crave sensual, heartfelt experiences, so you’ll love this season for its many opportunities to create those, because Venus is now in your partnership sector. Just know that with Venus in your opposite sign, the tone within relationships could be a little more intense than you’re accustomed to. Still, you can more readily tap into diplomacy and find ways to get on the same page as your significant other, a dear friend or a loved one. Spending time together one-on-one can also be more fulfilling than usual. And because this is also the zone that oversees mediation and negotiations, you could finally resolve some kind of ongoing disagreement.
Gemini
Even if you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed by all your everyday to-dos, you’ll sail through them with a little help from friends — or loved ones or your significant other now, because Venus is in your wellness and daily routine zone, bringing a more social vibe to this part of your life. Enlisting someone near and dear to support you through regular chores, daily walks or even checking out a new workout studio you’ve been meaning to swing by, you’ll feel more connected and productive.
Cancer
This could be one of the most magical, abundance-bringing times of year for you, thanks to sweet Venus moving through your romance and self-expression zone. You’ll be more apt to hit pause on hard and fast deadlines in order to take advantage of in-the-moment fun with your partner or your social circle. And being more spontaneous and artistic now can also have you feeling more alive and centered in your sense of self. Owning your voice is a part of this transit, as well, so dive into that creative project you’ve been wanting to launch.
Leo
As action-oriented as you are, you also have a soft side that adores lazing close to home with your loved ones, so think about embracing that part of your personality while Venus spends time in your home zone. Adopting a slower pace just feels right, as does devoting more time to taking walks down memory lane with loved ones, starting new traditions and just generally getting comfy and cozy while bonding with one another. Because Venus is the planet of beauty, you could also be more inspired than you have previously to decorate your home in a way that really showcases your aesthetic.
Virgo
Your social life is about to get even buzzier and more fulfilling, thanks to Venus in your communication zone. Your calendar could be more booked up as you squeeze in hang-outs with friends and brainstorms or networking sessions with colleagues. And this transit also fuels your curiosity and desire to learn and be on-the-go — perhaps saying “yes” to more short-distance trips, ideally the kind that will help you nurture existing connections or make new ones. And if you’ve been wanting to flex your creative muscle by learning a new skill set — like creating your own perfume or freshening up your wardrobe — go for it.
Libra
After spending time at home in your sign, Venus shifts into your income sector, which supports your ability to be especially charming and magnetic when sharing your moneymaking ideas with higher-ups and colleagues. Any financial goal you’ve been musing about making a reality will be easier to pursue now, because you have even more help from your friends. This transit also sets the stage for you to engage in practices that bolster your self-worth (like therapy or deep talks with your nearest and dearest), which can only attract even more rewards.
Scorpio
Social Venus is in your sign and self-image zone, which makes it possible for you to truly step into your power in matters of love, beauty, values and earning. You generally settle for nothing less than deeply intimate bonding with the people you cherish the most, and now, that level of relating is easier to tap into. Giving voice to your desires can also be the key to feeling even more self-assured and centered within your bonds. You might also go to bat for money-related aspirations you’re particularly passionate about.
Sagittarius
As Venus moves through Scorpio, it spends time in your spirituality sector, which is a quieter part of your chart that’s not as comfy for you, given that you tend to be so gregarious and social. Still, this can be a fulfilling moment if you lean into what this time was made for: tending to your psychological well-being as it relates to your bonds. You might also find it gratifying to focus on nurturing trust and intimacy within your relationship to your significant other perhaps through spiritual, restorative practices like couples yoga or morning walks.
Capricorn
You can hit the gas on collaborative endeavors and feel more capable of crossing the finish line on a goal you share with friends, loved ones or colleagues thanks to Venus moving through your networking and friendships zone now. And you’ll also crave a sense of connection with a team or community, so if you’re not already a part of one, this can be a wonderful time to seek out groups of like minded people, as relationship-oriented Venus can support this endeavor. If you’ve been wanting to move the ball forward on a long-term wish, your platonic bonds could be an important resource now, too.
Aquarius
If you’ve been wanting to command the spotlight on the job, take on more of a leadership position or bring a more creative, innovative perspective to your professional path, you’ll have the green light now thanks to Venus’s trip through your career zone. This season lends itself to charming higher-ups and earning more accolades for all your hard work. Reflect on your sense of authority and maybe even have a heart-to-heart with a significant other or dear friend about how you’d like to step into your power even more.
Pisces
You’ll want to break free of any aspect of your routine that feels like a snoozefest, because Venus is now in your higher learning and adventure sector, cranking up a feeling of restlessness. The best fix: capitalizing on any inspiration you might feel to pursue eye-opening experiences with your significant other or someone else special. This could look like long-distance travel or even signing up for a class or a retreat together, in which you can pick up new skills, make connections outside of your typical circle and possibly even explore philosophies and perspectives that differ from your own.
