It’s Scorpio Season, bitches. Happy birthday scorpions!

We’re pelvis-deep in the zodiac wheel now, creeping into Scorpio’s haunted house. Scorpio is a black widow; a witch; a moonless night; a shaman; a secret; a wolf howling in the cold; a hidden lair. Her mythological counterparts are Kali and Lilith. See her slinking at midnight, burning with intrigue and desire. She is hungry for your soul yet fiercely protective of her own. She is intellectual and intense, probing for insight, psychoanalyzing all who cross her path.

Scorpio’s specialty is acknowledging and healing trauma. This is a dark and serious time. Shit is about to get real, and we need strength and self-discipline. It’s time to take a closer look at how we expend our energy. This could mean sexual, physical, emotional, or mental energy.

Scorpio emanates from svadhisthana, the sacral chakra. The sacral chakra is inherently 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. The essence of Sagittarius, the constellation following Scorpio, begins in Scorpio. The scorpion is a netherworld guide preparing us for a spiritual journey. We need to experience Scorpio’s depths before we can fly to the centaur’s skies.

The purpose of Scorpio Season is to reclaim our power. In many ways this influence is quite black and white. The balancing act of Libra is over now. Scorpio is really “do or die.” We can use this to our advantage by inviting tectonic change into our lives. Trust your gut. Trust in the witch rising confidently from psychic slumber, awakening your spinal cord. It’s time to polish your broomstick, oil the cauldron, light the sacred fire.

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

Mercury Retrograde in Libra ends Oct 18.

Full Harvest Moon in Aries coming Oct 20, 2 days before Scorpio Season begins.

Oct 30 (1st day of Mars in Scorpio): Sun square Saturn in Aquarius. Stressful, rigid influence. Heightened intuition.

Nov 4 (New Moon in Scorpio): Sun opposite Uranus Retrograde in Taurus. Social dysfunction. Don’t count on anything going to plan. Unusual or unexpected outcomes highly likely.

Nov 12: Sun trine Neptune Retrograde in Pisces. Ocean vibes, deep dreams, dynamic lady time. Revisiting the past in conversation.

Nov 15: Sun square Jupiter Retrograde in Aquarius. When Jupiter (ruler of optimistic Sagittarius) is pressurized in a square, luck is hard to find. You may feel exhausted, confused, or energetically drained. Insomnia common.

Nov 19: Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Taurus!
