Eight of Pentacles for Scorpio
The Transformer
Scorpio is a Water fixed sign ruled by Mars, whose natural subject is shared resources, other people's money, death, sex, what is hidden. Pentacles are the earth suit, so the Eight of Pentacles sits in Capricorn. Capricorn sextiles Scorpio, which is help that has to be taken up rather than help that arrives. What it asks for is this: change one concrete arrangement this week. Scorpio is perfectly capable of that, which is exactly why not doing it needs a better excuse. Scorpio is fixed: it holds on, and this card is about an ending, which is the specific move fixed signs will delay the longest. Earth and Water feed each other, so this card's logic will feel natural here. Natural is not the same as correct. Upright, the work is available, and it is repetitive rather than dramatic.
