The Aries Moon and Saturn unite this morning, dearest Scorpio, pushing you to seize control of your life. This celestial union is all about taking a serious approach toward major goals, showing yourself a bit of tough love if procrastination has been winning. Get an early start and outline your agenda with as much detail as possible to avoid overstimulation. Reward yourself with moments of wellness while Pluto stirs, reminding you to take care of your body. Hard work pays off once Jupiter activates later tonight, but you may need to rearrange your schedule to make room for additional growth.
