The last day of Libra season heralds a
dramatic ending. This morning, we wake up to the Libra Moon square
Pluto in Capricorn (5:10 AM). I went for a walk on Sunday. The leaves
in my area are peaking. Weather-wise, Sunday was probably the best
day for viewing them. They were gorgeous. But, also what I noticed
was the death of the underbrush.
In the summer, various weeds grow up
along the road and temporarily mask roadside trash. I noticed some
people even allow the wild brush to grow up around their yards
providing a temporary shield of privacy. All that is drying up and
fading now revealing exactly what ugly has been hidden underneath.
This is a lot how I see Libra Moon
square Pluto. The death of beauty. The re-emergence of what we have
temporarily veiled.
After two days of smooth potential,
ugly, again, rears its head. This may cause our Libra energy to mourn
a bit. It is the beauty of fall that she enjoys the most. Of course,
the winter holds its own beauty but our pallets will not be primed
for that until Venus enters Scorpio tomorrow.
By, late morning, Moon is opposite
Uranus in Aries (10:26 AM). If you were groggy before, it is likely
you will be wide awake by now. Sparks fly between these two energies.
Uranus in Aries is unconcerned with appearances and delights in the
shedding of the old. Uranus doesn't understand Libra's grief.
However, if Libra engages her own superpowers of looking at things
from the perspective of the “other” she may see how liberating it
can be to reveal the bare bones of a situation.
The Moon meets Mercury in Libra by
conjunction at 5:27 PM. Uranus has already made her a Nervous Nelly.
Now, her mind reels as she flips all the current details over. She
may even talk things out with a friend. She could begin making big
plans for the future or she could blow the details wildly out of
proportion. Whether the details of the matter steer her toward worry
or optimistic plans, her perspective is shifted toward the future as
she meets Jupiter by sextile at 8:50 PM. Afterall, she does delight
in the remaining fall décor. She also delights in the fact that
people will continue to decorate their homes with lights and baubles
throughout the end of the year. Plus, snow will eventually blanket
all the ugly the dying environment has revealed.
It feels like a bittersweet day to me.
One that holds, at least, the beginning inklings of acceptance while
also feeling the imminent shift in the air. How will you handle the
new? Or can you see that yet? Some may hold on to mourning what is
lost for sometime. Will you light a candle in the darkness of
Scorpio? Or, will you allow the black to blanket you in masochism?
Scorpio season heralds a time of
increased lightness for me. I know. Crazy, right? But, Libra season
is an adventure through my 8th house. By the time Scorpio
season is here, I've emerged from my own watery grave ready to
celebrate.
Halloween. It's the greatest party of
the year in my opinion. And, the Day of the Dead is symbolic of my
own re-animation from the grave. For many Plutonic people like me,
this is a cherished time of year. Finally, the rest of the Earth
understands what we see all the time. We have a chance to celebrate
the rich blackness of the Earth. The light from the Sun becomes bent
in such a way that it doesn't offend our vampirish eyes. Darkness
returns and Pluto people find a bit of peace as if we have returned
home after a long journey.
But, for those who are unaccustomed to
the energy, this time of year is scary. There are demons everywhere.
Weird unexplainable things happen as the veil between the worlds
becomes threadbare allowing Spirit to unexpectedly reach out to us
from time to time. And, I promise you, that veil is wondrously thin
right now.
There are others, still yet, who will
fall prey to the seduction of the season. Strong temptations abound
during this time of year. The darker more sinister energies are given
power that can be alluring to those who may have lost touch with
their own. Greed sneaks in as people deeply desire to hold all the
gold in fear that there is not enough to go around. Deals with the
Devil are commenced. Lust gurgles in the loins.
The real trick here is realizing that
you don't need to be afraid. All the power you desire resides within
you. And, Scorpio season is more about getting to the roots of that
personal power and figuring out how to use it. We metaphorically die
to the world in an effort to be reborn stronger. How you handle the
season has everything to do with how comfortable you are in your own
darkness. If you are afraid, you'll reach out to anything and anyone
to help you feel powerful again. If you are unafraid, you embrace the
little death and realize that the transition eventually rebirths. You
don't need to be saved.
Tomorrow, the Sun, Moon and Venus take
the plunge into the dark murky waters of Scorpio together. On the
very first day of the Season, we experience a solar eclipse. What
vows will you take before your trip through darkness? Think it over;
your chance to declare them comes at the New Moon...the absolute
darkest night of the whole month.
