Who's Afraid Of a Scorpion?

I live in Arizona so I'm used to scorpions. Have even been stung a few times and lived to tell the tale. I also grew up with a Scorpio Mom and my husband has many scorpionic aspects in his chart.   So, Saturn's move into this mysterious sign is not scary to me, while many astrology sites are predicting doom and gloom!

I'll talk  more about it in October--but FOR NOW:

Saturn's move through the last few degrees of LIBRA are of more concern.As a practicing astrologer, in my 30+ years of counseling,I see a cascade of change and energy and EVENTS as a planet moves through the FINAL 3 degrees of a sign.

Right now, most of us,regardless of our sun sign, are in a whirlwind of decisions about all kinds of relationships. Love life, work life, where you live, it's all up for grabs,isn't it? The thing is, this is not  a COMFORTABLE time.. the choices mean deep deep  soul searching,because WE SEEM TO KNOW the choices we make will be VERY LONG LASTING in effect!!  And we also sort of wish we didn't have to change the status quo (but we do..)

If you are indecisive person, this is hard. I tend to enjoy setting my course, even changing course in a high wind can be..exhilarating! (For me!)  I am not a fence sitter.

If you are, your comfort zone is being violated!!

Before we move into the mysterious, magical, and deep exploration of Scorpio, finish up what's happening in Libra , before October 5.   Uh- oh-- you don't mean you haven't STARTED!?????

I find that when we do not make necessary changes on our own, the Great Gods will start doing it for  us.I  prefer the illusion that I have something to say about it all!!  So I am proactive.

Really, time is short.. pressure is building,no?

You have nothing to  fear by releasing what isn't a good match for your life energy and your desires right now.You may find you need to clean house, start over, revise and rennovate.

You may even find you are thisclose to finding your AUTHENTIC WAY OF BEING IN THIS WORLD.

Tell me, what MUST you change right now??  And how hard is it?

Affirmation for This Day:

" I release..."

Say it Like You Mean It , Mars!

Mars is a lot more straight-forward in the sign of Scorpio (which is co rules)  and that will apply to all of us!

If you were pussy-footing around trying not to offend or hurt feelings, if your  ideas and comments got taken the wrong way, if you are just plain  tired of compromise, then Mars In Scorpio  will thrill you!

As we begin to move into a new 6 week cycle, Mars in Scorpio sets the steady pace. (Till around Oct. 6.)

We can approach goals in a direct, straightforward manner. We may surprise others and ourselves with our clear cut focus and our stamina.Libra was just not a good fit for the feisty Martian planet!  And some relationships took a beating. Some egos too.

Now, believe it or not, DIRECT and ASSERTIVE communication will solve more problems than the satin glove approach.

Sensitive types are fascinated /repelled by the intensity of Scorpio, but Mars is happy here! Venus is Cancerian aspect  means the more sensitive Cancer/Pisces mermaid types will find much here to their liking..some romantic intrigue, an emotional goal finally faced head on and ACCOMPLISHED.. and,  less meaningless drivel.

Other signs get a boost of physical energy, and a sense of RENEWAL.

Use this 6 weeks to set clear cut emotional goals, to say what you mean, and to brush up on your seduction skills!

If you know what HOUSE this Mars placement has in your own natal chart, you will see LOTS OF ACTION AND DECISION MAKING IN THAT AREA!

AFFIRMATION FOR THIS DAY:

"I can see clearly now ..."
