We are at a spiritual > crossroads. We can either choose to continue in the same direction or > we can make a major life change and alter our course. Whatever we > choose, the old has got to go. The Sun, Moon and Jupiter are all > within one degree of each other and Mars and Mercury are close behind. > At the 29th degree of Scorpio, we are being tested by Scorpio. This > is progress report time. How far have we advanced in mastering our > Scorpio lessons? > > To understand the dynamics of this new moon, we must realize that > Scorpio walks the path of a double-edged sword. It must always choose > between Light and Dark. But the choice is not that simple. We must > give up the past in order to move forward. And we must embrace the > dark, and forgive the past in order to let it go. We have to descend > into the underworld of our subconscious, confront our own mortality > and in some way die, in order to be reborn into greater awareness and > empowerment. The process of death and rebirth takes place within > ourselves, where we are alone with our self-tormentors. > > Fortunately if we pay attention, Scorpio always shows us a way out. > The question is can we go deep enough to find the escape route. With > Jupiter close to the Sun and Moon, this new moon offers us enough > light to show us the way out of our internal prison. We will see > possibilities that we did not see before. Our expanded perspective > will free our mind to take advantage of the opportunities available. > > QUANTUM LEAP - ALL PLANETS DIRECT FOR TWO WEEKS > > From the 20th of November through the 5th of December every planet is > in direct motion! This is the only two weeks in 2006 when all planets > will be moving direct. The way is clear. What will we decide to do > with our life? What direction will we go? What path will we take? > Breakthroughs, quantum leap, leap of faith and full speed ahead are > the themes launched by > > Uranus going direct on November 19th. > > The atmosphere is one of optimism as the Sun enters Sagittarius on > November > 22 and Jupiter moves into Sagittarius the 23rd, completing its > yearlong journey through Scorpio. We have had one year to look deeply > into our unconscious, examine our directing beliefs and assumptions, > confront our fears and shadow and get in touch with our deepest > heart's desires. Jupiter in Sagittarius will expand our hopes and > opportunities and make us more committed to our spiritual path. > > Saturn turns retrograde on December 5th. So enjoy the feeling of > unfettered freedom before the taskmaster reminds us of the limits and > of the material world and the work it takes to manifest our dreams. > The good news is that Saturn energy makes manifestation possible. > > SCORPIO - THE SECOND WATER SIGN > > Scorpio is the second water sign. There are three zodiac signs in > each of the elements. Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces represent water or > the emotional body. They each teach us how to express and master the > water element. Cancer teaches us how to nurture. Scorpio instructs us > how to create through attraction.

" *(8) > > THE FUNDAMENTAL DYNAMICS OF SCORPIO > > Scorpio's powerful and subterranean reservoir of emotional energy > makes it sexually magnetic, charismatic, enigmatic and resilient, with > an imperturbable reserve of will to back up its fixity of purpose. > This feminine, nocturnal and autumnal sign should never be > underestimated. It has a tendency to be defensive, a predisposition > to intensity and an icy detachment that makes it difficult to comprehend. > > This feminine sign carefully guards and internalizes its energy. > Scorpio is a worldly-wise sign that operates through emotional and > instinctual gut reactions. Taking advantage of its magnetism, it > allows its energy to attract to it. It is capable of probing to the > depths of any problem, exposing and eliminating whatever is > superfluous and artificial. Its penetrating emotional and psychic > sensitivity, ability to penetrate superficial gloss, and its almost > compulsive ability to focus on a problem allows it to get at the root > cause and offer a meaningful solution. *(9) > > In mythology Scorpio plays the role of guardians, custodians and > protectors, whose power comes from its cool and calculated focus. The > ability to remain undisturbed by external distractions frees it to > concentrate on strategic defense. > > Reminding us that archetypes represent and bring into focus the > extremes of that theme, Scorpio can be a master of deceit as well as a > master at recognizing deception, superficiality and facades. Scorpio > delivers us to a deeper level of truth by penetrating to levels of > reality most of us prefer not to even contemplate. If we want real > communication with Scorpio we have to be totally honest and direct. > Scorpio can't be fooled, and it doesn't waste its time on > pleasantries. *(10) > > SCORPIO IS OUR INNER MARS > > In Vedic astrology both Aries and Scorpio are ruled by Mars. Aries, > the active, externally oriented expression of Mars, is open, direct > and indulges in the bravado of war and competition. Scorpio is the > internally oriented expression of Mars. Scorpio does not make open > war, seldom initiates attacks, and carefully holds its power in > reserve. Covert, secretive, silent and stealthy, Scorpio is more > preoccupied with strategic defense, and neutralizing the enemy through > infiltration and ruse. > > Scorpio helps us understand where our inner Mars got repressed, > suppressed, shamed and damaged -- where our deep emotional reservoir > got blocked, stuck, disoriented and wounded. Scorpio teaches us that > it is definitely better to examine the anger that we don't want to > admit than to live our lives as wounded warriors. To live powerful, > courageous and independent lives we have to examine our shadow so that > it will not draw us into either victim or victimizer roles. This > examination is a natural part of our developmental process. > > If we ignore, deny or try to suppress our fear and rage when we are > young, these unresolved emotions become deep conflicts and breed > self-hatred. We unconsciously act out these repressed emotions until > we acknowledge and make peace with them. If the emotional energy of > our inner Mars/Scorpio is misdirected we feel troubled and drained of > energy. When our inner Mars is not marginalized, its energy can be > directed toward a mission. > > When our emotional energy can be consciously directed to what we love, > we can feel vital and strong. Instead of feeling like we are > struggling against an antagonistic, hostile unidentifiable force, we > feel supported by a deep confidence, strength and wisdom within > ourselves. The gift of Scorpio is to uncover and empower our core > emotional strength, which gives us the capacity for enduring patience, > unquestioned determination and a natural resilience to meet all life's > challenges with grace. > > THE SYMBOLOGY OF SCORPIO'S PATH > > No sign of the zodiac reveals or determines our level of > consciousness. Each can be expressed in the most childish immature way > or at the highest level of self-mastery. Our level of maturity and > mastery is determined by our willingness and ability to learn our > lessons and grow into adult expressions of our embodied soul. The > possibility of all levels of mastery exists for each sign. And each > has its challenges that we must both face and embrace. > > The symbology of Scorpio offers us a chance to evolve from the > scorpion, to the phoenix to the eagle. Our ability to ascend the > ladder of evolutionary expression of this energy depends on > acknowledging and accepting our dark side. Scorpio's core experience > gets it in touch with the fact we humans are capable of demonic > expressions. Scorpio teaches us to get in touch with this primal > energy and figure out how to work with it. If we try to repress this > energy and cage the beast in our subconscious, it will subtly, or not > so subtly, manipulate our reality. It will control our life and how > we project, attract and manifest in the world. > > SCORPIO TELLS US THE TRUTH > > Scorpio and Pluto tell us the truth. Some one has to do it! Or we > will remain forever stuck in our denial and illusions! When we really > pay attention to what Scorpio is showing us, we can find it appalling > how we lie to ourselves and each other. It takes only a few hours in > front of the television to be sickened by the depths of depravity and > perversion that humans are not only capable of but actually indulge > in. It is shocking how our whole culture revolves around a > superficial bubble gum reality and how we buy into it as gospel truth. > How could we not see what we are doing? The degree to which we see, > why don't we ask why? Why don't we care? Why don't we do something > about our low level of consciousness and existence? > > To protect our sanity, we may limit the extent to which we torment > ourselves with the atrocities and idiocies that systematically > organize our political and economic lives. Making a business out of > fear and gore is one of the major ways those in power control our > minds and emotions. Buying into the deception is not the way out. > But escapism and denial don't deliver us from evil either. > > Some forms of denial can be used as protective mechanisms against the > tyranny of political propaganda. How much " truth " about the human > condition can we bear? How much violence is healthy?

What perception of " reality " > simply fosters an attitude of victimization, allowing us to continue > wallowing in our stance of disempowerment? > > How many facts are needed to motivate us to take responsibility and > work together to create alternatives? > > SCORPIO DIRECTS US TOWARD THE LIGHT > > Although Scorpio is totally cognizant of the dark side of human > nature, it doesn't encourage us to get caught in the claws of > negativity or the muddy pools of the subconscious. The Scorpio > archetype shows us a way out of the pit. Scorpio acknowledges the > darkness, but directs us toward the Light. In fact, Scorpio teaches us > that the only way out of the darkness is to turn our vision toward the > Light. Of course, it isn't all that simple to extricate ourselves > from our darkness, but Scorpio demonstrates that it is both possible > and ultimately very rewarding. > > Scorpio shows us that everything exists - good and evil, black and > white, the wicked and the pure.

Responsibility is the stepping > stone of Scorpio's deliverance from the under world. > > Scorpio teaches us that the Dark and the Light both exist. One is > part of the other. We are always evolving to higher levels of > Lightness. Our path is to bring Light into darkness, to expose, not > deny. To embrace, not condemn. To accept, not judge. To give up > being a victim and take responsibility for our own lives. > > SCORPIO HELPS US GET REAL > > Getting real for Scorpio is accepting our evolutionary journey and > getting thoroughly involved in the process - (1) witnessing our dark > side, our less than optimal behaviors, and the extent to which we live > robotic and unconscious lives, (2) acknowledging how our inner > reality creates our outer reality, (3) learning how to let go of > sub-optimal behaviors, beliefs, programs, (4) consciously engaging in > the death and rebirth process of our own psyche, (5) always keeping > in mind that there is a higher truth in the universe that expresses > through our self, and (6) questing to embody this pure expression of > our soul. > > Scorpio lets us know that we can transform dark into light. But there > is no quick fix or simplistic route. We have to take our physical and > emotional bodies with us into the light. Evolution is not a mental, > out-of-the body experience. Most people have no idea what to do with > their emotional energy, which explains why we expend it in perverse > activities, squander it in fear and anger, and try to sublimate it to > not feel out of control. > > Scorpio reminds us, again and again, that emotional energy can be > denied only at our own expense - illness, crime, torment and > meaningless existence. We have to patiently and lovingly transform and > transmute our emotional energy that is buried in sensitive wounds, > deep hurts, nagging dramas and obvious scars. Transcendence happens > only after we have given up our need to control, judge and punish and > have surrendered to the highest good. Scorpio does not let go easily, > but let go it must to rise above the ashes of the past. > > SCORPIO'S X-RAY VISION EXPOSES THE TRUTH > > Scorpio has the uncanny capacity to see things exactly the way they > are. Scorpio's X-ray vision unmasks facades and exposes whatever lurks > in our subconscious. There is no hiding from Scorpio's penetrating > gaze that uncovers our deepest secrets and exposes our debilitating > self-deception. " Scorpio is like a prism through which the whole > spectrum of good and evil becomes visible. " *(11) > > Scorpio exposes the dark side of human existence - cruelty, violence, > murder, sexual perversion, dominance and submission, the forbidden and > the taboo. Scorpio is magnetically drawn to experiences that the > light-hearted don't dare to even contemplate. Scorpio does not hide > under a façade of social acceptability. It excavates our buried > secrets and unabashedly exposes them. > > Scorpio is able to observe, acknowledge, and even immerse itself in > horrors, identify how we have buried ourselves and lost our way, and > then reveal truths that can liberate us from the quagmire of > corruption and depravity. > > DENIAL AND PROJECTION > > Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio, is the rooter router in our birth chart. > Pluto performs the same function for the collective consciousness. > Both Scorpio and Pluto's mission is to make us aware of how our > unconscious manifests in our lives. Their task is to show us how our > internal state of affairs determines both our personal and collective > realities. When we cooly observe ourselves and others, we can clearly > see that what we do, how we behave and how we relate are all > determined by our inner state of being. Nastiness, aggression, > defensiveness, kindness, compassion are all generated inside ourselves. > > Our internal state determines our outer reality through an > interrelated process of denial and projection. We use denial to > protect our conscious awareness from seeing uncomfortable truths and > facts that threaten our ego identity. Denial is a conscious or > unconscious defense mechanism that refuses to acknowledge qualities, > feelings, beliefs, motivations, desires, wants, needs, attitudes and > facts about our self, others or the world. What we deny can be either > true or untrue. > > Projection is the result of denial and is made possible by the fact > that our internal reality impacts our external reality. What we deny > is externalized through projection. Whatever we are unwilling to > recognize in our self, we see as a problem or a threat coming from > people or circumstances outside ourselves.

Our projections create our > reality whether what we believe is real or true, or not. > > The first step in releasing ourselves from the denial/projection trap > is to recognize what we are doing. It is both Scorpio's and Pluto's > job to deliver us from denial. No one really enjoys this part of the > maturation/empowerment process, but it is required to quit sabotaging > ourselves and to move toward self-mastery. > > One very important thing to remember is that we can deny both our > positive and our negative attributes. And our denial can be both > accurate and fallacious. Poverty consciousness is rooted in false > assumptions about universal abundance. Low self-esteem is founded on > inaccurate beliefs about our own merits and worthiness. To get the > maximum benefit from this Scorpionic overdose, we need to be aware of > how we underestimate ourselves, limit our success and settle for less > than we deserve.
