THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF SCORPIO
The energy of Scorpio is deeply psychological and spiritual, and too often misunderstood. As a fixed (perseverant) Mars and Pluto ruled sign, Scorpio is centered on the will of the soul. Scorpio is a defender for the soul's right to grow and evolve– to procreate, merge psychological, physical, and emotional resources with others–to thrive. In the process of pooling together resources with others, Scorpios must lose their egoic sense of self, to experience a metaphorical death, to truly merge and rebirth oneself into a more exalted state of empowerment–this is you, this month. Throughout November, give particular attention to the root of your desires, recognizing that it's not the desires themselves that motivate you, but the experience and process of evolving that birth your aspirations, and thus, your Vision.
REBIRTH + MAGNETISM
The themes of this month to focus on include:
Working your talents and skills to the max (How can you let your inherent gifts, personality traits, and uniqueness shine even more? Where are you holding back in fear of “looking bad” to others?)
Healing your hang-ups (What do you need to let go of? Who can you forgive? Even if it's yourself?)
Overcoming fear (What's one thing you can do this month to conquer a fear? As the saying goes, “feel the fear and do it anyways…”)
Self-limiting beliefs (Where are you seeking external validation? Where can you validate yourself instead?)
Surrendering your need for control (Where you can add in TRUST? If the Universe can make the Earth rotate everyday, can you trust it can handle your life too?)
All in favor of stepping into your power, strength and becoming more magnetic by choosing your Self, again and again.
Emotional, physical, and psychic magnetism = drawing to you all that you need.
SCORPIO SEASON: ACTION PLAN
Being able to experience your Vision, manifest, and embody it–to enjoy it–happens when you feel it and allow it to consume you, to metamorphose your existing reality into something greater than your initial desire.
Birthing your Vision through the support of Scorpio season happens when you recognize where your material desires are rooted, when you're honest with yourself, and when your vision and goals are deep-rooted in conviction and devotion. Scorpio is a water sign that boils when provoked–don't be afraid of your power, strength, and intensity. This month will lend you staying power, consistency, and grit to make your dreams a reality. Allow your emotions to fuel you constructively. Ask yourself where you feel most emotionally, financially, and sexually empowered.
