Scorpio season usually starts on October 23 and runs until about November 21 each year, though some astrologers place the start around October 22 depending on the year and ephemeris used.

Key dates

  • Most modern astrology sources give Scorpio season as October 23 to November 21.
  • Some horoscopes frame the season a bit more loosely as October 22–November 21/22 , reflecting slight year-to-year shifts in the Sun’s exact movement into Scorpio.

Why the dates can vary

  • Scorpio season is defined by the period when the Sun is in the zodiac sign Scorpio, not by the calendar alone.
  • Because the Sun’s ingress can occur at different times of day and time zones, some astrologers round to October 22, while many mainstream sites standardize to October 23 as the practical start date.

Quick Scoop for planning

  • If you are planning birthday posts, rituals, or horoscope reading, using October 23 as the start of Scorpio season will align with most popular astrology sources.
  • For more precise or technical astrology, checking the exact solar ingress for your year and location can tell you whether the energy “shifts” late on October 22 or early on October 23.
