Scorpio (October 23rd – November 22nd) A potent Full Moon in your sign falls on the 5th signaling a major completion in some aspect of your life. Relationships are a high- light, whether it’s time to leave or stay, to work together or to find new partnerships that actually work. Group dynamics are also

Instead of social mingling what you may crave most this month is creative expression, fostering the skills and abilities you’ve neglected recently.
