And so the Sun has now also ingressed into Scorpio. Once again, we have almost no air in the astrological chart, apart from Mars in Libra. When Venus entered Scorpio at the start of the month, it gave your heart a voice. Venus represents love and seduction, also what we value, our sense of fairness, justice and our truth. Hence Venus in Scorpio, which is Fixed Water, represents the depths of our emotional truth. Mercury in Scorpio symbolises the emotional depth of how we communicate from the core of our soul. The Sun, whose placement in our natal birth chart shows us where our masculine light shines brightest, when now in Scorpio, is shedding light on the darker part of our soul. Fixed water, internal processing. As long as it takes.

What does our soul really want to experience? More than superficial day to day interacting. Much, much more. In Scorpio season, which coincides here in New England with the stunningly beautiful fall season where the trees everywhere are a cascade of the most glorious russet, gold, red, almost purple hues, it is indeed a time of deep soulful reflection. Our soul craves above all, connection. As we move into the coming winter months which have yet to arrive, Fall (also known as Autumn) is when our soul goes deeply internal. No longer content with frothy Cappucino conversations, it craves deep Turkish coffee soul baring experiences where we look deeply inwards and bare our souls in Plutonian fashion. We talk about our wounds, we find ourselves reflecting on where our soul and heart wants to lead us. Not where our mind wants to go. Not when and where and how we earn money. Never mind the day job for a while.

The New Moon in Scorpio on 27th October will be a time of intention setting for the coming six months. But not just yet. Spend time alone, connecting only with those who understand what your soul wants to share. Slowly, slowly. Deeply. Deeply.

Your Venus, Mercury and Sun in Scorpio craves just this right now. No more, no less. Keep it simple.
