scorpioLaura Walker – The watery tail of Jupiter in Scorpio is making its way away from us today, leaving us with one of the most emotionally difficult days of our lives.

I have always endeavored to keep it real here, so I will just get to it, and we will get on with the transmutation of the energy.  It’s good to know what the heck we are really doing.

Today is the last time the Moon will conjunct Jupiter while Jupiter is in Scorpio.  This means that all of the ugliness that has come up from the underworld since Jupiter entered Scorpio a year ago comes to a head today.

This is good because it signals the impending end to the out-of-control emotionality and intense negativity of Jupiter in Scorpio.

It is difficult because we have no choice but to endure and witness the end of it, which is the most intense part of it.  And we are tired.

A Full Moon of Major Change and Principled Stand

~ admin ~ Leave a comment

full moonHenry Seltzer – Monday’s Full Moon is a dynamic one, and brings into further prominence many of the themes of the previous lunations of November, in which we can also include the October 30th Scorpio New Moon that initiated this current thirty-day cycle. The planetary rulers of Scorpio, Mars and Pluto, are also featured in this Full Moon by the strong connections that each makes with Saturn. We have in fact a nearly perfect aspectual connection between Saturn and Pluto, with Mars now participating as well, by virtue of its close parallel with both of these difficult planets.

Major structural change very clearly remains powerfully evident in the current astrological atmosphere, reflecting how we are doing both as individuals, and as part of the societal evolution that we find ourselves in. In true Saturnian fashion we are having to fall back on our own sense of ourselves and what we truly stand for, inside, because the transition to this new U.S. presidential administration is more marked with uncertainty and confusion about where this nation is headed than any in recent memory.

There is still quite a bit of Neptune in this Full Moon configuration, just as there was at the timing of the October 30th New Moon, and as might only make sense in the midst of these confusing times. The New Moon was in close trine to Neptune, which is stationing this month as well, on the 19th, in close conjunction with the Moon’s nodal axis. When an outer planet stations it becomes much stronger in its symbolic influence, so that Neptune is highlighted now, and over the remainder of the month.

We might recognize in this strong Neptunian presence the potential for illusion, and in the current political climate for the possibility of outright deception, or at least a good dose of uncertainty. We can always take whatever is happening to the symbolic level of spiritual shadow play, but we still have to deal with what we have in front of us in realistic terms.

Mars Direct in Scorpio

~ admin ~ Leave a comment

Djwhal Khul here. Tashi Delek.

Yes we do have a little bit of feedback on the microphone. I’ll see if I can fix that.

This week I want to talk about Mars going direct and it does so on June 29. One moment here, I want to get a little more centered in the body. There we go.

We’re going to have an interesting surge towards the end of this Mars retrograde, and then when it does go direct it kind of goes with a bit of a vengeance. So I am going to say keep invoking Divine Feminine Presence. You can work with Angelic Presence for example would also be helpful. Really any Feminine Presence or just the Presence of Divine Love itself will be helpful.

A Full Moon of Darkness and Light

parallel Henry Seltzer – Thursday late evening’s Scorpio Full Moon, coming along in the small hours of Friday morning for the East Coast and Europe, is another intense configuration. This is largely due once again to the powerful outer-planet presences that have been featured in almost every recent lunation. In particular, within a couple of degrees of 21-plus of their respective signs, we find Venus, Uranus, and Eris, in Aries, in close triple conjunction, a stationing Mercury in Taurus coming into extremely close parallel with Saturn and Pluto, and the Moon’s nodal axis itself, at 21 degrees of Pisces and Virgo.

These multiple connections between inner and outer planets bring up the latter’s essentially transpersonal and transformative nature, where we are encouraged to see what lies deep within the unconscious portions of our psyches and to act on this numinous and other-dimensional understanding. Mars, newly retrograde, remains parallel to Saturn and Pluto as well, creating his own triumvirate of difficult and quite specifically internal energies.

Casting our net wider, we find that Jupiter is square to Saturn, and in perfect parallel to Uranus, to the minute of a degree of declination. Jupiter is also trine Pluto and closely opposed, as well as contra-parallel, to Neptune. With Jupiter thus so strongly invoked, while remaining on the opposite side of the Zodiac from all these others, we have a surprising note of starry-eyed optimism that somehow enters into the picture of this dynamic and darkly resonant Full Moon, bringing in the lighter as well as the darker side of the human condition.

Eleven-Eleven New Moon

~ admin ~ 1 Comment

lilithM. Kelley Hunter –  The Moon makes a series of positive planetary connections leading up to this new lunar cycle. Mercury closely accompanies this Scorpio New Moon, indicating deep considerations and research over the next two weeks of the waxing moon. Some of the best insights come from dreams and spiritual realms, with healing import. Think of a snake shedding its outworn skin. Be gentle, we can’t force the process. As we share our perceptions we find common ground beyond manmade boundaries. Universal truths prevail.

Scorpio is a oft misunderstood and much maligned sign. It’s depth and intensity is daunting for many (including some Scorpios), and its water sign sensitivity is not always appreciated. Scorpio feels into the depths. An all-or-nothing tendency may reject certain things immediately as being non-meaningful or mis-timed. Sometimes we are just not ready to take something in or to handle the implications of what we do. When Scorpio does let something or someone in, s/he can be whole-hearted about it, plunging in all the way like a deep sea diver. A rule of diving is that you resurface slowly. Otherwise you get “the bends,” or decompressions sickness, in which dissolved gases create bubbles in the body system that create dangerous symptoms and can be lethal. We learn to rise from the depths slowly, pausing as needed before ascending to the surface.

Mars is one ruler of Scorpio, presently perched on the edge of Virgo-Libra, evoking the open-eyed justice of Maat, Goddess of divine harmony and universal truth. The Virgo High Priestess holds the Scales of Libra, weighing her Feather of Truth with the heart and soul. What is your truth? Moving into Libra on the day after this New Moon, we seek peace and balance. As we engage in dialogue, some folks will be pushing, maneuvering for their agendas, often hidden. Some negotiate with good faith. Continue reading →
