It’s impossible to anticipate one’s perspective before one arrives, and we have now arrived in the ceremony.
Venus in Scorpio devours, she plays for keeps, has no idea what the shallow end of the pool is, and she never ever forgets anything.
The spiderweb of retrogrades through time has brought us into this configuration 12 times since 1930, this will be the 13th and it will be the last Scorpio Venus Star Point for over one hundred years. Your grandmother lived through this same exact transit that we are in now.
The week begins under the separating, annual, Sun-Saturn opposition so things are straight-edge right now.
Tension is high, so better tune your instrument. And YOU are your instrument. Sound frequency is very helpful as it begins the alignment process in the cells.
Close your mouth, place your tongue in contact with the roof of your mouth and hummm for two full minutes.
This is for your vagus nerve, largest in your body and its health determines how long you live.
Sun Saturn opposition in the relationship axis as Venus goes underground is no coincidence.
This is all about fine tuning yourself on the deepest emotional levels…only raw honesty will work now. And from that fine/tuned, inner, emotional and psychological alignment, the work then becomes about how we connect in ways that are fruitful and nourishing, versus contributing to greater trauma.
The stakes are so high right now. Time is accelerating, something we can all feel. We are each little leaf boats holding a single soul candle, trying our best to navigate the stormy highs and lows of this era
Post equinox it’s always time to turn within as the darkening skies, and astrological themes take us into the depths of relating with the other.
Sartre’s observation that Heaven and Hell are both other people rings true now.
There is nothing in the way of the Persephone path into the underworld. We are on the descending path alongside her, alongside Inanna, being welcomed through the dark gates into the rich and storied underworld, from where so much of our richness is sourced.
But we must be brave enough to open the door. As Clarissa Pinkola Estes observed, “ If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.”
X- you are HERE. Whichever applies the most to you, start there. Start at the messy, the painful, the bloody torn parts of your heart and soul that have never felt safe enough to heal or to mend. Allow yourself to honestly assess these wounds, and to weep and weep for what brought them into being. This is a tidal tsunami shed of the old the rough the calloused, from any lifetime, any timeline. They are all converging here in your heart and soul in the unwinding spiral ritual of the next six weeks.
