Read your sign’s 2024 horoscope to see what’s in store for you this year, or check out the Scorpio personality profile.

Welcome to December and the last month of the year, Scorpio. During November, your horoscope discussed how the transformative planet Pluto, one of your ruling planets, was stationed in Aquarius, where it will stay for the next two decades. This month primarily focuses on finding what family means to you during the stress of the holiday season.

Importantly, starting on Friday, December 6, your other ruling planet, Mars, goes retrograde in Leo, and your 10th House of Social Status. First off, know that Mars rules sexual energy. As a result, it’s normal if this affects your libido. Scorpios have a very sexy reputation, and it’s great if that speaks to you. However, should your sex drive ebb and flow, know that it’s normal. But as this affects your 10th House, most likely, you may feel a little less ambitious than usual. Rather than feel bad about this, just give into your softer side between now and February, when Mars goes direct.

Also, on Friday, December 6, the lover planet Venus enters your 4th House of Home and Family. If you’re in a new sexual partnership, you could see it deepening around this date as lovers start to feel like home. And if you’re in a long-term partnership, a cozy weekend at home is just what you need to reconnect. Adding to the mix, Ceres, the asteroid of nurtrance, joins Venus in your 4th House on Saturday, December 7. Further emphasizing that this is one of the sexiest weekends of the year, also on Saturday, December 7, the dreamy planet Neptune ends its retrograde and goes direct in your pleasurable 5th House. If you’re feeling sexy, this change heightens it. Even if you aren’t, it calls you to feel good in other ways, such as exchanging massage with your partner or taking long baths.

You may want to mark Sunday, December 15, down in your calendar. There’s a Gemini full moon in your transformative 8th House. This could lead some Scorpios to feel creative sexually. If that that doesn’t sound right, know that the mood is also very conducive to a makeover, even if you’re just experimenting with eye makeup or trying new nail art. Also on Sunday, December 15, messenger Mercury ends its retrograde and goes direct. This allows communication to become easier and helps ensure that upcoming holiday travel isn’t as stressful as it could be. It should also see any exes in your DMs going back to where they came from.
