Scorpio Horoscope 2028: Love, Career, Money and Key Dates

For Scorpio, 2028 is the year someone sits down across the table from you. Since February 14, 2026, Saturn has been crossing your 6th house and bringing order to your working days. On April 13, 2028 at 12:04 am ET, it enters Taurus, your opposite sign, and settles into your 7th house until May 31, 2030. Partner, business associates, contracts: everything that binds you to another person comes under its gaze. You like to hold the reins without saying so; Saturn opposite you asks you to state the terms out loud, then stick to them.
Three other movements matter. Venus is retrograde from May 10 to June 22 in Gemini, in your 8th house: shared money, inheritances and intimacy get renegotiated. Jupiter leaves your networks on August 24 for your 12th house, ahead of its arrival in your sign in September 2029. The eclipses move from the career–home axis to the axis of horizons, your 9th and 3rd houses. Pluto, your modern ruler, backs up from May 9 to October 19 and takes two squares from Saturn, on June 23 and November 15; Mars, your traditional ruler, never turns retrograde this year.
- April 13: Saturn leaves your 6th house and enters Taurus, opposite your sign — your relationship, partnerships and contracts are put to the test until 2030.
- May 10 – June 22: Venus turns retrograde in Gemini, in your 8th house — joint money, loans, estates, trust: sign nothing before July 26.
- August 24: Jupiter moves from your 11th house to your 12th — a year backstage before it enters your sign in 2029.
- January 11, July 21, December 31: three eclipses in Cancer, in your 9th house — travel, study, beliefs; the July 6 eclipse answers in your 3rd house.
What changes from 2027
Your 2027 horoscope told the story of a year in the public eye: Jupiter at the top of your chart until July 26, then in your networks, and Mercury retrograde in your sign in October. 2028 turns the wheel: Saturn slides from the 6th house to the 7th, Jupiter from the 11th to the 12th, and the lunar nodes from the home–career axis to the axis of learning and far horizons.
| Planet | In 2027 | In 2028 | Your solar house in 2028 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jupiter | Leo, then Virgo from July 26 | Virgo, then Libra from August 24 | 11th house (friends, networks, group projects), then 12th house (rest, retreat, inner life) |
| Saturn | Aries | Aries, then Taurus from April 13 | 6th house (daily work, health habits, routines), then 7th house (partnership, alliances, contracts) |
| Uranus | Gemini | Gemini, all year | 8th house (intimacy, shared money, transformation) |
| Neptune | Aries | Aries, all year | 6th house (daily work, health habits, routines) |
| Pluto | Aquarius | Aquarius, all year | 4th house (home, family, roots) |
| North Node / South Node | Aquarius / Leo | Capricorn / Cancer from March (new eclipse axis) | 3rd house (communication, learning, siblings, short trips) / 9th house (travel, study, beliefs) |
What gets lighter: your 6th house keeps only Neptune, so daily life eases up; your 11th house loses Jupiter in August. What gets heavier: your 7th house takes on Saturn, your 12th house takes on Jupiter. From March, the lunar nodes shift into your 3rd and 9th houses: grow through what is close by, let go on the side of what is far away. Pluto, your ruler, stays in your 4th house: home remains the foundation.
Scorpio’s four turning points in 2028
Four dates carve up the year, and each one changes the subject: from daily routine to partnership, from partnership to intimacy, from your network to retreat, from home to the wider world.
April 13: Saturn enters Taurus, opposite your sign
Since February 14, 2026, Saturn has been holding your 6th house to account: workable hours, a realistic load. On April 13 at 12:04 am, it enters Taurus and your 7th house, until May 31, 2030. A Saturn transit opposite the Sun isn’t a year of scheduled breakups; it is a year of contracts. What is solid gets formalized, what isn’t shows itself, and the other person — spouse, business partner, client — becomes the one who holds you to your word. For a sign that prefers to keep control without announcing it, this is a new exercise. Mars conjoins Saturn on April 30 at 2°16′: the first yes or no. Saturn’s retrograde, from August 22 to January 5, 2029, rereads whatever was agreed in the spring.
May 10 to June 22: Venus retrograde in your 8th house, what you share
Venus backs up from May 10 at 7:01 pm (19°41′ Gemini) to June 22 at 6:14 pm (3°11′), with a shadow from April 7 to July 26. For you, that is the 8th house, the one that speaks your language: money held in common, loans, estates, and everything that circulates without being said — trust, desire, a debt of honor. This Venus retrograde puts an old financial arrangement or an unsettled estate back on the table; someone from the past may come back to square an account. The previous one, in October–November 2026, played out in your own sign; this one is about what you pool with others. Mercury backs up over the same degrees from May 21 to June 14. Mars conjoins Uranus at 11°25′ on June 23, the day after Venus turns direct: a sudden clarification. Sign nothing involving shared money before July 26.
August 24: Jupiter enters Libra, your 12th house
Since July 26, 2027, Jupiter has been crossing your 11th house, sextile your sign: friends, networks. Its retrograde from January 12 (27°31′ Virgo) to May 13 (17°32′) sorts out who really belongs in a group. On August 24 at 1:04 am, it enters Libra and your 12th house, until September 24, 2029. For you, the 12th house is familiar ground: retreat, the things done with no one watching. This Jupiter transit is the waiting room before it reaches your sign in September 2029: you close files, you forgive or you let go. Three aspects shape the stay. On September 24, Jupiter trine Pluto (6°33′) quietly resolves a family matter; on September 28, Jupiter opposite Neptune (7°31′) blurs the line between rest and work; on October 27, Jupiter trine Uranus (13°38′) frees up a question of shared money.
The eclipses leave the career–home axis for the axis of horizons
Since the summer of 2026, the eclipses had been falling in Leo and Aquarius, your 10th and 4th houses: career and home. The annular eclipse of January 26 at 10:07 am, at 6°11′ Aquarius, closes that series in your 4th house, on the very degree occupied by Pluto, your ruler: a family chapter opened in 2026 comes to an end. From the US, it shows up only as a thin partial bite that morning on the East Coast. The new axis is Cancer–Capricorn, your 9th and 3rd houses, through September 2029: the far and the near. On January 11 at 11:13 pm, the partial lunar eclipse at 21°34′ Cancer, visible across the US, opens it in your 9th house: a departure, a belief to revisit. On July 6, the partial lunar eclipse at 15°16′ Capricorn touches your 3rd house: something in writing, a brother or a sister. On July 21 at 10:55 pm, the total solar eclipse at 29°51′ Cancer, whose totality crosses Australia and New Zealand, plants a new beginning somewhere far away; on December 31 at 11:51 am, the total lunar eclipse at 10°35′ Cancer, invisible from the US but seen from Europe and Asia, closes the year in the same place. With the South Node in your 9th house from March, the task is to release a certainty, not to conquer one.

- February 14 7:42 am Mercury turns direct at 3°59′ Aquarius · 4th house
- March 19 3:35 pm Mars enters Aries · 6th house
The year begins at home: Mars enters Aquarius on January 3, in your 4th house, and conjoins Pluto on January 11 at 6°17′ — a power struggle in the family. That night, the lunar eclipse in Cancer raises the year’s first question about distance in your 9th house, while Jupiter, retrograde in your 11th house from the next morning, slows a group project until May 13; on January 13, Uranus trine Pluto links shared money to the family. Mercury retrograde in your 4th house from January 24 to February 14 reopens a family conversation; on January 26, the annular eclipse on Pluto’s degree wraps up two years of work on the home front. In February, Mars moves into Pisces on the 10th, your 5th house: five weeks of pleasure. In March, Venus in Taurus from March 4 to April 3 gives your relationship its gentlest window before Saturn arrives; on March 19 at 3:35 pm, Mars enters Aries and your 6th house.
Spring (March 19 – June 20): face to face, then intimacy under review
- April 13 12:04 am Saturn enters Taurus · 7th house
- April 24 3:47 pm New Moon at 5°09′ Taurus · 7th house
- April 27 6:21 pm Mars enters Taurus · 7th house

- June 7 2:20 pm Mars enters Gemini · 8th house
- June 8 9:49 pm Neptune sextile Pluto · 6th and 4th houses
- June 14 2:05 am Mercury turns direct at 7°45′ Gemini · 8th house
Mars in your 6th house until April 27 keeps you working hard. On April 13, Saturn enters Taurus and your center of gravity tips toward the 7th house; the New Moon of April 24 at 5°09′ Taurus, then Mars on the 27th, load up that house, and the Mars–Saturn conjunction of April 30 at 2°16′ is the first real test of a bond. On May 8, the Full Moon at 18°44′ of your sign puts you back at the center, the day before Pluto’s station: retrograde from May 9 at 8°49′ Aquarius until October 19, it lets a family matter mature away from prying eyes, and the Uranus–Pluto trine late on May 9 settles part of it. Then intimacy reopens: Venus turns retrograde on May 10 and Mercury on the 21st, both in Gemini in your 8th house; Jupiter turns direct on May 13 in your networks. Mars joins your 8th house on June 7: June recounts what is shared.
Summer (June 20 – September 22): the horizon opens, Jupiter withdraws
- June 22 6:14 pm Venus turns direct at 3°11′ Gemini · 8th house
- June 23 11:18 pm Saturn square Pluto · 7th and 4th houses
- July 6 2:19 pm Partial lunar eclipse at 15°16′ Capricorn · 3rd house
- July 11 9:18 am Neptune turns retrograde at 8°54′ Aries · 6th house
- July 20 4:09 pm Mars enters Cancer · 9th house
- July 21 10:55 pm Total solar eclipse at 29°51′ Cancer · 9th house
- August 22 6:17 pm Saturn turns retrograde at 11°19′ Taurus · 7th house
- August 24 1:04 am Jupiter enters Libra · 12th house
- September 4 10:36 am Mars enters Leo · 10th house
- September 18 8:06 pm Uranus turns retrograde at 14°14′ Gemini · 8th house
- September 19 12:27 pm Mercury turns retrograde at 18°36′ Libra · 12th house
Venus turns direct on the evening of June 22, and the next day Mars conjoins Uranus at 11°25′ Gemini, in your 8th house — a truth about money comes out all at once. Late on June 23, Saturn makes its first square to Pluto (8°23′) between your 7th and 4th houses: duties toward a partner and duties toward family pull against each other. In July, the lunar eclipse of the 6th in Capricorn touches your 3rd house, and Mars enters Cancer on the 20th, your 9th house, the day before the total solar eclipse on the evening of the 21st: a departure, a conviction that flips. In August, Saturn turns retrograde on the 22nd at 11°19′ Taurus; on the 24th, Jupiter enters Libra and your 12th house. September pushes toward your career: Mars in Leo from the 4th, in your 10th house, opposes Pluto on the 15th and squares Saturn on the 21st — defuse rather than win. On the 18th, Uranus turns retrograde in your 8th house, and on the 19th Mercury does the same in Libra, your 12th: an old file resurfaces until October 11.
Fall and year’s end (September 22 – December 31): your season, under Saturn’s gaze
- September 24 3:39 am Jupiter trine Pluto · 12th and 4th houses
- September 28 3:29 pm Jupiter opposite Neptune · 12th and 6th houses
- October 11 6:30 am Mercury turns direct at 3°29′ Libra · 12th house
- October 19 12:19 am Pluto turns direct at 6°24′ Aquarius · 4th house
- October 22 5:13 pm Sun enters Scorpio · 1st house
- October 23 9:11 pm Mars enters Virgo · 11th house
- October 27 5:03 am Jupiter trine Uranus · 12th and 8th houses
- November 2 5:17 am Full Moon at 10°29′ Taurus · 7th house
- November 7 11:21 pm Neptune sextile Pluto · 6th and 4th houses
- November 15 7:29 am Saturn square Pluto · 7th and 4th houses
- November 16 8:18 am New Moon at 24°43′ Scorpio · 1st house
- November 20 7:57 pm Venus enters Scorpio · 1st house
- December 16 3:56 pm Neptune turns direct at 6°06′ Aries · 6th house
- December 21 3:46 am Mars enters Libra · 12th house
- December 31 11:51 am Total lunar eclipse at 10°35′ Cancer · 9th house
Fall belongs to your two rulers. On September 24, Jupiter trine Pluto quietly untangles a family matter; on the 28th, its opposition to Neptune is the date to watch: it is easy to mistake rest for escape. Mercury turns direct on October 11, Pluto on the 19th at 6°24′ Aquarius, and the Sun enters your sign on October 22 at 5:13 pm. Mars moves into Virgo on the 23rd, your 11th house, until December 21; on the 27th, Jupiter trine Uranus resolves a shared-money issue. November is your month: the Full Moon of the 2nd at 10°29′ Taurus takes stock of your relationship; on the 15th, the second Saturn–Pluto square at 6°35′ calls for a choice between your partner and your roots; on the 16th, the New Moon at 24°43′ of your sign opens your cycle, and Venus enters Scorpio on the 20th, until December 14. In December, Neptune turns direct on the 16th, and the total lunar eclipse of the 31st at 10°35′ Cancer ends the year on a question of distance.
Love and relationships: Scorpio in 2028
Your love year unfolds in three acts. Until April 13, it stays light: Mars in Pisces from February 10 to March 19 enlivens your 5th house, and Venus in Taurus from March 4 to April 3 softens your 7th. Then Saturn arrives opposite you on April 13 and asks the bond to prove its structure: in a couple, it is the year of formal commitments or of a frank renegotiation; single, you meet fewer people, but the ones you meet carry more weight. The Mars–Saturn conjunction of April 30 brings the first conversation that commits you.
Venus retrograde from May 10 to June 22 in your 8th house doesn’t touch the visible side of the relationship but what lies underneath: trust, jealousy, household money. A former partner may resurface over an account left open; nothing is final before July 26. Saturn’s squares to Pluto, on June 23 and November 15, set your partner against your family: in-laws, housing, loyalties. Fall hands control back to you: the Full Moon of November 2 in Taurus takes stock, the New Moon of November 16 in your sign sets a fresh intention, and Venus in Scorpio from November 20 to December 14 gives you back your magnetism.
Work, career and money
Until August 24, Jupiter in your 11th house remains your lever: referrals, team projects; its retrograde from January 12 to May 13 trims the team down to the people who hold firm. Saturn in your 7th house from April 13 changes your dealings with partners and clients: contracts get longer and tougher, a partnership is formalized or dissolved. Mars in Leo from September 4 to October 23, in your 10th house, is the career push of the year; its opposition to Pluto on September 15 and its square to Saturn on the 21st warn you not to force things. From August 24, Jupiter in your 12th house favors deep, behind-the-scenes work; Mercury retrograde in Libra from September 19 to October 11 brings back a file you thought was closed.
On the money side, your 2nd house is calm and your 8th house is not. Uranus stays there all year, and its last two trines to Pluto, on January 13 and May 9, connect shared money to family assets. Venus retrograde from May 10 to June 22, doubled by Mercury from May 21 to June 14, resets a joint account, a debt, an estate: check, renegotiate, and sign after July 26. Jupiter trine Uranus on October 27 brings the resolution. The New Moon of December 15, in your 2nd house, is the moment to look at your own income.
Health, energy and balance
A quirk of 2028: Mars, your traditional ruler, neither turns retrograde nor passes through your sign. Your energy therefore takes on the color of the houses it visits. From March 19 to April 27, in your 6th house, it is at its best for setting up a sleep or exercise routine, as long as you don’t confuse drive with overheating around its conjunction with Neptune on March 27. From June 7 to July 20, in your 8th house, it runs on nerves; from July 20 to September 4, in your 9th, it recharges through movement and travel. Neptune, retrograde in your 6th house from July 11 to December 16, makes fatigue hard to pin down: listen to it early. Jupiter in your 12th house from August 24 makes rest legitimate.
By your date of birth
A decan covers ten degrees of the sign, and the slow planets touch only one at a time: depending on your birthday, Saturn faces you from April, in the summer, or not yet. The table gives the exact contacts; the paragraphs below translate them.
| Decan | Born between | Degrees | What touches it in 2028 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st decan | October 23 – November 1 | 0°–9° | Pluto in square, all year Saturn in opposition, April 13 – July 14 Saturn in opposition, from October 1 |
| 2nd decan | November 2 – 11 | 10°–19° | Jupiter in sextile, April 2 – June 24 Saturn in opposition, July 14 – October 1 |
| 3rd decan | November 12 – 21 | 20°–29° | Jupiter in sextile, until April 2 Jupiter in sextile, June 24 – August 24 |
Born October 23 – November 1 (1st decan): the decan of Saturn and Pluto
You carry the most demanding year of the sign. Pluto squares your degrees from your 4th house, and Saturn opposes you from April 13 to July 14, then again from October 1. Both Saturn–Pluto squares, on June 23 at 8°23′ and November 15 at 6°35′, fall exactly on your degrees: your partner on one side, your family on the other. The January 26 eclipse at 6°11′ Aquarius also squares your Sun, and the Mars–Saturn conjunction of April 30 at 2°16′ Taurus opposes it.
Born November 2–11 (2nd decan): Jupiter first, Saturn second
Your spring has a tailwind: Jupiter sextiles your degrees from April 2 to June 24, and the Full Moon of May 8 at 18°44′ Scorpio lights up your Sun. Saturn opposes you from July 14 to October 1, with its retrograde station on August 22 at 11°19′ Taurus; this is your season for examining the relationship. On September 21, Mars at 10°34′ Leo squares Saturn on your degrees: force nothing. The Full Moon of November 2 at 10°29′ Taurus draws up the balance sheet.
Born November 12–21 (3rd decan): the year of allies
Saturn doesn’t reach you in 2028: its opposition comes in 2029–2030. What you do have is Jupiter in sextile until April 2, then from June 24 to August 24. The Cancer eclipses of January 11 (21°34′) and July 21 (29°51′) trine your degrees: travel, study and departures come more easily. The New Moon of November 16 at 24°43′ Scorpio falls on your Sun: your starting point for 2029.
Dates to mark on your 2028 calendar
- January 26: annular solar eclipse at 6°11′ Aquarius, on Pluto’s degree in your 4th house.
- April 13: Saturn enters Taurus, opposite your sign, for two years in your 7th house.
- April 30: Mars conjunct Saturn at 2°16′ Taurus — the first yes or no.
- May 8: Full Moon at 18°44′ Scorpio, the day before Pluto’s station.
- May 10: Venus turns retrograde in Gemini, your 8th house, until June 22.
- June 23: first Saturn–Pluto square between your 7th and 4th houses.
- July 21: total solar eclipse in Cancer, your 9th house.
- August 24: Jupiter enters Libra, your 12th house.
- November 16: New Moon at 24°43′ Scorpio, the day after the second Saturn–Pluto square — your new cycle.
- December 31: total lunar eclipse in Cancer, out of sight from the US but visible from Europe and Asia.
Scorpio rising: this page is for you too
If you have Scorpio rising, the houses on this page are your own: Saturn enters your 7th house on April 13, Venus turns retrograde in your actual 8th house, and Jupiter reaches your 12th house on August 24. Read this page for partnership, contracts and shared money; keep the page for your Sun sign for vitality. If you don’t know your rising sign, the ascendant calculator works it out from your birth time and birthplace; without a time, your Sun sign remains the right reading.
Give someone your word, and keep it. 2027 taught you to let yourself be seen; from April 13, Saturn opposite you asks you to commit, in writing. Between April 13 and April 30, name what you expect from a partner and what you give in return — and while Venus backs up from May 10 to June 22, leave shared money on hold until July 26.
None of these dates decides for you. A transit shows which house the year is calling on, and when; the response is yours, and that is what our ethics charter stands for.
Scorpio in 2028: common questions
What does 2028 have in store for Scorpio?
A year face to face with someone. Saturn enters Taurus on April 13, opposite your sign, and tests your relationship and your contracts until 2030. Venus retrograde from May 10 to June 22 touches shared money; Jupiter moves into your 12th house on August 24 before reaching your sign in 2029; the Cancer eclipses of January 11, July 21 and December 31 open a chapter of travel and study.
Is 2028 a good year for Scorpio in love?
A serious year rather than an easy one. Venus in Taurus from March 4 to April 3 is the gentlest window; from April 13, Saturn in opposition asks your relationship to build real structure. Venus retrograde from May 10 to June 22 reopens questions of trust and household money. Fall gives you the upper hand again, with the New Moon of November 16 in your sign and Venus in Scorpio from November 20 to December 14.
What does Saturn in Taurus mean for Scorpio?
Saturn enters Taurus on April 13, 2028 at 12:04 am ET and stays until May 31, 2030. For Scorpio, it leaves the 6th house of daily routine for the 7th house of partnership and contracts, opposite your Sun: solid bonds get formalized, the others reveal themselves. The 1st decan feels it from April 13, the 2nd from July 14, and the 3rd not before 2029.
How does Venus retrograde 2028 affect Scorpio?
Venus is retrograde from May 10 to June 22, 2028 in Gemini, Scorpio’s 8th house: money held in common, estates, intimacy. An old arrangement comes up for discussion again, and someone from the past may return to settle an account. The shadow runs from April 7 to July 26, so sign any shared financial commitment after that date.
What are the best months of 2028 for Scorpio?
February and March are the lightest, with Mars in Pisces in your 5th house from February 10 to March 19 and Venus in Taurus from March 4 to April 3. November is the strongest: Pluto direct since October 19, the Sun in your sign from October 22, the New Moon in Scorpio on November 16 and Venus in your sign from November 20 to December 14.
How is 2028 different from 2027 for Scorpio?
2027 put you on display: Jupiter at the top of your chart until July 26, then in your networks. 2028 puts you across from someone: Saturn moves into your 7th house on April 13, Jupiter withdraws into your 12th house on August 24, Venus turns retrograde in your 8th house and the eclipses change axis. Less stage, more contracts and backstage work.
