Scorpio Planetary Horoscope for January 4, 2026

The first weekend of 2026 is not only hosting the first Full Moon of 2026 in an adventurous part of your chart, but an alignment with Jupiter today is making it clear that this is no one hit wonder. There is rarely any planetary in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery at this time of year and halfway between the Sun's last visit six months ago and the next, is a Full Moon that is designed to ignite a sense of wanderlust, curiosity and adventure. The difference this year is that for the first time in 12 years Jupiter is here, with the planet of luck and expansion not leaving until June and until March, is holding the doors open to the past and second chances.

Planetary Love

The Moon is not only spending its first visit of 2026 to an adventurous part of your chart and as a Full Moon, but at a friendly aspect to Saturn and Neptune in your romantic sector. This is the first Full Moon while Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion is here in 12 years and the Moon's last visit before Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams leaves your romantic sector later in the month, putting some serious weight behind a mix of romance, adventure and nostalgia.

Scorpio Planets

Ruled by Pluto, the planet of transformation, power, and rebirth, Scorpio is known for its intensity and depth. Pluto gifts Scorpios with a profound understanding of the unseen forces that drive human behavior, making them naturally skilled at navigating life's complexities and intricate relationships.

When the Sun shines in Scorpio, from approximately October 23 to November 21, the sign's inherent qualities of passion, resilience, and insight are supercharged. This period is perfect for diving into deep introspection, embarking on transformative projects, and forging intense emotional connections. The Sun in Scorpio fuels an energy that encourages profound personal growth and the revelation of hidden truths.

Pluto's influence on Scorpio significantly boosts their ability to transform and regenerate. For example, when Pluto aligns with the Sun in Scorpio, it magnifies personal power and the drive for profound change, making it an excellent time to initiate major life transformations. However, a Pluto-Venus square may present challenges in relationships, requiring Scorpios to confront and heal deep-seated emotional issues.

Pluto's transits through different signs also profoundly affect Scorpio. When Pluto transits through Scorpio itself, it heralds a period of intense personal transformation and empowerment. Scorpios may feel a heightened desire to delve into their subconscious, address inner conflicts, and emerge stronger and more self-aware. This transit is ideal for breaking free from old patterns and embracing new, more authentic ways of being.

When Pluto transits through more detached signs like Aquarius or Gemini, Scorpios need to make adjustments. These periods encourage approaching transformation from a more intellectual or social perspective, prompting exploration of new ideas and innovative connections with others. Although these transits might challenge their usual depth, they offer valuable opportunities for expanding horizons and gaining new insights.

Other significant planetary influences for Scorpio include Mars and Neptune. Mars, as the traditional ruler of Scorpio, intensifies their drive and determination, encouraging them to pursue goals with unwavering focus. This aspect fosters a courageous approach to challenges and a proactive stance in achieving personal and professional ambitions. Neptune, with its dreamy and intuitive energy, enhances Scorpios' psychic abilities and creativity, inspiring them to explore their spiritual side and express themselves artistically.
