Scorpio asks: What will you create? Pluto asks: What is your Mission? in Capricorn: What is your Purpose? How will you access this powerful shape-shifting energy this month? Caroline W. Casey says, “The undercover [Scorpio] Self is the shape-shifting part of us that assumes whatever guises are necessary to best serve our mission.”
Scorpio is our Soul Level, subterranean, interior realms that we often do not have the time, tools or resources to address in real-time, so we put our Soul needs on the back-burner. Some people avoid their Soul Work their entire lives.
11/7 ~ Venus (values & priorities) ~square~ Saturn (reality & purpose):
This energy can make you feel cool & detached with loved ones. It is time to ‘take stock’ of your relationships and really evaluate the level of balance between giving & receiving. Business or personal – relationships must have a balance of give & take.
10/9 ~ Full Moon in ARIES:
Aries Full Moon affords an incredible opportunity for a clean slate and deep release of that which is no longer part of your identity or purpose. It’s also a good time to release anything that creates imbalance within you or blocks your true independence in the world. This Full Moon kicks off another year of *Release Work*, which also means that you just completed a whole year of it too, so give your Self credit where credit is due.
10/2 ~ Mercury Direct in VIRGO (until Oct 11th):
Well, it may be going Direct but it’s not necessarily done with the current upgrade, review, re-set & processing that we are engaged in at this time. We only have about a week to make sense of the changes we’ve been through before it is time to move into the new consciousness and start expressing in all new ways. So let’s use that time to truly process & integrate whatever came into our conscious awareness over the last 3-6-9 weeks.
Libra energy is best for evaluating all your relationships, collaborations & partnerships, personal or business. Are things fair & balanced? Most relationships are rarely “equal”, but how do you feel about the exchange of energy or reciprocity at this time? Is there any kind of imbalance?
9/5 ~ Venus in Virgo (until 9/29):
Venus (values, priorities, resources, love, art, beauty, culture) in Virgo (earthy wisdom, systems for living & natural timing) is a time to focus on healing the mind/body connection and perfecting the Spirit-in-Human-form. The current values & priorities should focus on how well your own systems for living are serving you and where you need to simplify your life in order to be more effective. As Virgo precedes the Libra focus of relationships and the response of others (to you), I recommend keeping the focus on you, and what your mind, body & spirit can actually handle & manage on a day-to-day basis. It’s time to release the nonessential, extraneous or redundant and make room for more quality nutrient, inner clarity & self-discipline. It’s time to focus on quality control and question everything ~ is it worth it? Is it practical? Does it make sense for you personally? Is it natural? Is it really important or valuable? Venus rules our romance & finance departments and in Virgo, you have to ask: does it actually work?
This season is so important, and taking advantage of every possible form of support and good energy, (planetary or otherwise) is vital to making a smooth transition to the next leg of this particular journey. This month’s expanded Virgo energy will feed you in a way that fuels your individual process, making you more effective in your preparation for the coming tangible results. However, if you are in a weakened state or not prepared, it may also frustrate you by pointing out every crack in your personal system, scattering your energy to the point that you don’t even know where to begin because there are too many tasks at hand. That’s when you can PAUSE & BREATHE! and remember you can always CHOOSE to express this energy in a different way in any given moment. Virgo is about Self-Mastery, as you gain skill in understanding your own personal system and how it works for you.
Virgo gives everyone a chance to “process, sort & sift” all that has come up in the last nine months. There is a line in the book, Little Soul & the Sun by Neale Donald Walsh, that says, “Now that I know WHO I AM, I want to BE it!” And I must suggest that in order for you to “BE” all that you discovered about your essential nature (in Leo) and what nourishes and supports you on the deepest levels (in Cancer), Virgo is the energy that extracts the BEST of YOU and helps you heal and/or release all that is no longer relevant or useful – within and around you.
8/28 ~ Venus (relationships & resources) ~oppose~ Saturn (physical limits & reality):
Where Sun opposite Saturn has the focus squarely on you, the individual, Venus opposite Saturn often illuminates the relationships that you’ve magnetized (or repelled) in your lifetime. It is here that I also like to remind folks how valuable MidPoints can be as they give you a direct look back at your starting point, which offers unbelievable clarity about what you may be dealing with in the present moment. (That Initiation would’ve happened when Venus conjuncted Saturn on 3.28.2022.) There is a push-pull between your true values and the current reality of your relationships and/or your resources.
