The Moon continues in Scorpio today - and what a beauty she was last night, too. Among other things, Scorpio rules shared resources and other people's money. Important to make the connection to power here. In our culture, we definitely equate money with power....so, if you're having money issues, at some level you're actually having issues with power. Scorpio is a deeply karmic sign, ruling our guilt over past life transgressions and our need to release that guilt. Saturn's current transit through Scorpio insists that we work out our conflicts about power so we are able to reach down deep and reclaim the strength and wisdom we have accumulated in other experiences. When Scorpio is around, it's good to remind ourselves that power is just power and money is just money. It's what I do with it that makes it good or bad, light or dark. Scorpio rules the lightest of the light as well as the darkest of the dark, and perhaps its deepest lesson for us is that what we are truly responsible for is our intention. Scorpio's ancient relationship with magick tells us a truth we need to embrace..."Intention is Everything". You can't control --- well, you can't control much of anything!....but no matter what your words and actions are, you are the only one in control of what you meant by them.

The Full Moon in Scorpio occurs in 5 degrees this afternoon. One could make a case for this being the most powerful emotional day of the year. One symbol just doesn't say it all for a sign this complex, so the Scorpion, the Eagle, the Phoenix, and the Dove are all representative of the sign's energy. Each one embodies a stage of transformation required to move us through our lives and spiritual journeys. A respected teacher once said that we come to Earth for two reasons: To learn to love unconditionally and to learn to use power wisely and well. This is the heart of the transformations of Scorpio. As the Scorpion, we live in the extremism and drama of rage, revenge, control, obsession, and abuse. As we refine our lower natures through spiritual philosophies, expanded beliefs, and higher understanding, we move into the Eagle expression where we can access more freedom from the painful stings of the Scorpion. The third stage is to continue to refine the spiritual nature and elevate it to the level of the Phoenix/Dove, where the old self can burn down to ashes and be reborn as more magnificent and transcendent creature, the Dove of pure peace, serenity, and Divine Love. As we continue through 2 1/2 years of Saturn in Scorpio, this Moon is even more important. You need to have the deep insights that can come from knowing what area of your life this transformative process is affecting and what the changes are that will be required of you and your spirit. Pay special attention to what happens in your life today and what your emotional world is all about - these are vital clues to the changes that are unavoidable during this time in your life. Scorpio workshops are now available to address this very area, and if you've ever been interested in booking a private session, this is the time to have a look at yourself. Call, email or FB Celestial Serendipity for appointments or to set up a workshop. Bring 3 friends and you can take the workshop free. Saturn won't let us off the hook -- we will do this work whether we want to or not. It's a lot easier if you know what class you've signed up for! The Moon is in Libra today. We are surrounded with strong Venus energy as the Moon is almost full -- which it will be tomorrow at 2:57 pm CDT in Scorpio. Today we have the chance to grab onto some balance before this powerful energy peaks for the next couple of days. If you think about all the emotional issues you have faced in the last month and all the healing opportunities that were presented to you in the month before that, and all the transformation that this Moon will try to bring as it culminates, climactically in true Scorpio fashion, you can see how intense the next few days can be. Look ahead at the process you are in presently of refining paranoia into awareness, obsession into healthy focus, extremism into laser-like self-containment. This Full Moon coming is a super-duper level of the Visit from the Vulture - the perfect time to let the old truly fall away and leave you clean and ready to move on. What is it, in you, that needs to die and leave behind the fertile soil for something new to grow? Bring the past to an end. Prepare to be reborn and resurrected. Recreate yourself as an ever-greater version of the spiritual being you came here to embody. The Moon is in Virgo, perfect for Earth Day. Virgo is a very misunderstood sign, assigned to the rulership of a planet that interferes with the expression of its earthiness. As a representation of the Divine Feminine, she has been hidden from us for a very long time and the importance of her power minimized and understated. Now, we know better. The Mother who births the Divine into the physical world, we can revere her, especially today, as we honor her creation, this "little garden planet, oasis in space". As we move toward the Full Moon in Scorpio in a few days, inspiration, desire and creation are strong themes requiring our attention as we serve her in so many ways as the channel for her fertility. You are more creative than you can imagine.....and responsible for your creations....what do you want to bring into being? Space -- The Final Frontier. The Moon is in Aquarius now, having a casual and pleasant conversation with the four planets that have moved into Aries to kick off Spring for us. The deep water we have been swimming in for the last couple of months has almost all drained away, as Mercury approaches the end of the "retrograde hangover". In a couple of days, it will truly have moved on, too. So, what does that mean for us -- in English? Four planets in Aries is a lot of push, and fire, and energy, and decisiveness, and courage, and assertiveness.....all of which is being provided for us so we can DO SOMETHING NEW about all the issues and information that came up during that trip through Pisces. I'm sure you don't have to think very hard to tell me what you had come up...what you ended up releasing...what forgiveness still needed to be done. So now that you understand that and took care of it....what needs to be different in your life? What actions were you previously not able to take? What decisions were looming unchosen on your horizon? What was in the way that's gone now? Because all that Aries wants us to take action in a powerful, clear, and direct way. It's too much energy to lay there unused -- Aries turns to impulsiveness, impatience, aggression, and overall bad choices if we don't direct it well. And these planets will move on soon -- the time for you to make a move is now! |
