Scorpio Season 🦂 2022

Oct 23 – Nov 22, 2022

Your sun sign is just one planet in your star soup. Curious about the rest? Contact me for a natal chart reading.

Pelvis-deep in the zodiac wheel and we’re creeping now into Scorpio’s haunted house. Scorpio is a black widow; a secret; a wolf howling in the cold; a hidden lair. She is Kali, Lilith, Baba Yaga. See her slinking at midnight, burning with desire, hungry for your soul yet fiercely protective of her own; see her intellect, sharp as a moonless night, psychoanalyzing all who cross her path.

This is a dark and serious time. Shit is about to get real, and we need strength and self-discipline. Yes it’s emotional, yes it’s messy, yes it’s chaotic, but only sometimes. Scorpio is also incredibly clarifying and pragmatic after the storm clouds evaporate. When the mind settles, it’s time to take a closer look at how we expend our energy, including sexual, physical, emotional, and mental energy. Where can we tighten up boundaries to prevent energy seeps? How can we be more self-contained, more powerful?

Scorpio emanates from svadhisthana, the sacral chakra. The sacral chakra is emotional and creative in nature. When we transition from Scorpio to Sagittarius, we will ascend from the sacral chakra to the fiery solar plexus chakra, full of heat and action and impulse.

The flame of Sagittarius arrives on the ashes of Scorpio. The scorpion guides us through netherworld caverns hidden deep in the psyche, holding her flickering magical orb above so we can see all the skeletons grasping at our ankles. She takes us here not to cause us pain, but because the answers lie here in deadly silence like keys at the bottom of a poison lake. We need to experience Scorpio’s chilling depths before we can fly to the centaur’s skies.

Scorpio Season is when we reclaim our power and stop the ridiculous balancing act of Libra. Scorpio is “do or die.” Invite tectonic change into your life. Trust your gut. Trust in the witch rising confidently from summer slumber, awakening in your spinal cord. Polish your broomstick, oil the cauldron, light the sacred fire.

power ~ control ~ rebirth ~ metamorphosis ~ reclamation ~ spirit ~ magic
