Scorpio — Monday 18 May 2026

Your lunch will be something you ate alone by choice, which you'll frame to yourself as preference and to no one else as anything, because no one asked. The friend situation, though. *Pluto* in Aquarius is doing something interesting to your social circuitry right now — specifically, it's illuminating the gap between the friends you'd die for and the friends you've quietly sentenced to death without telling them. You know the ones. Still in the group chat. Still getting a birthday message. Technically present. You've just... stopped meaning it, and haven't found the right moment to say so, which means the right moment was about four years ago. *Mars* is at the very last gasp of Aries today — all that force, right on the edge of exhaustion — and you're directing it, characteristically, inward. Not at anyone. Just at the whole situation. The knowledge. The file you keep, mentally, on everyone who's ever let you down, cross-referenced and quietly updated. Nobody taught you to grieve friendships in silence. You were just born knowing how.
