Scorpio – 2022 December Monthly Love Horoscope

Your strong, unshakable co-leader Mars is retrograde in versatile Gemini to start the month, so you definitely have options when it comes to dealing with the drama and BS surrounding your love life. There’s plenty of it to wade through right now, Scorpio, but take your time. Mapping out a plan before you act will ensure success.

On December 7, a sun-Mars opposition brings out your aggression and uber-competitiveness, which aren’t always conducive to being in a healthy relationship. If a current partner or (potential) date sees these traits in you too often, it will no doubt send up a lot of red flags.

On the ninth, Venus leaves exciting Sagittarius for steady fellow earth sign Capricorn and your fifth house of pleasure, so you’re focused on being patient and having goals, especially in a sexual sense. Needless to say, you prefer slow, deliberate lovemaking sessions to quickies right now.

December 31 brings a magnetic conjunction between Venus, the promoter of love, and your intense co-ruler Pluto that increases your need for emotional closeness. Notice we said “need,” not “want,” because having a completely soul-altering, all-encompassing karmic connection with the person you’re in love with (or crushing on) isn’t optional. If you aren’t feeling it, it probably won’t last much longer.
