How
to Treat your Scorpio |
|
|
|
 Your
Scorpio embodies the characteristics of the Ruler of the
Underworld... Hades, Pluto - any name you call him by, he's someone
you don't want to mess with! This is one small, passionate arachnid
who packs a whallop.
Now,
I know Scorpio gets a bad rap. That's because people need to look
beyond the stinger and get to the meat. And the meat is tasty. First
of all, without resorting to actually devouring your Scorpio
(although she'd love it), take into consideration these enticing
Scorpionic traits: Your Scorpio is deeply intuitive, sensual,
mysterious, sexy, prosperity conscious, able to make dramatic life
changes, a powerful ally, and - yes - deeply spiritual. The key word
here is deep....deep as the ocean herself.
So
why wouldn't you want to mess with someone who sounds so alluring?
Why should you think twice about badmouthing or - dare I say -
leaving such a one? Because everything runs deep with Scorpio. All
the good, and all the bad. Feelings are strong, and last forever!
When you are aligned with his wishes, you are his champion, his
partner, his war-buddy. When you cross the line, you might as well
hide out for a year until her venom wears off. Just think of your
Scorpio as the Godfather (as in the movie.) You get the picture....
you know what happens to traitors... Don't go there! So, now that you
know that you must be nice, what is it that your Scorpio needs from you?
First
of all, let her know she is sexy, desirable, alluring and powerful.
Tell him that the world is putty in his hands and that he is the
ultimate sex-god. Venture into the unknown with your Scorpio.
Discover dark hidden realms and uncover secrets.... be a spy with
her. Or better yet, hide out so he can have the pleasure of finding
you. Be available to satisfy your Scorpio's sudden urges, and believe
in her neverending quest for self-discovery and the ultimate in
spiritual fulfillment. Easy enough?
Don't
forget to dance and have fun with your Scorpio... they do know how
to have a good time... But always, always approach with caution. You
will be rewarded with plenty of powerful and moving experiences,
devotion, true friendship and a loyal friend - for life.

How
to Treat your Sagittarius |
|

 Your
happy Sag is a straight shooter, a wise one, a seer who is always
ready and able to offer up plans and ideas. She knows how to find the
answers, and doesn't hesitate to do so. A natural fortune-teller, she
has an innate sense of the future. You can tap into her foreshadowing
ability and get helpful hints about how to proceed in life. And she
is always honest - even if it is overstated a bit!
Your
jovial Sagi is almost always a happy camper. He sees the world
through lovely rose colored glasses. He barely recognizes
unhappiness. Your Sagi is a wonderful companion because his joy for
life is so lofty and grand that it is truly contagious.
While
all this is a tremendous advantage, you may come to find that
sometimes your Sagi is a lonely, sad clown. The problem is - he may
have difficulty knowing whether or not he is truly happy inside! The
jollity of your Sagi is usually completely genuine, but he may
sometimes feel embarrassed to say if he is actually depressed.
It's
not that your Sagi is hiding her feelings, it's just that she is
always looking forward to something better. Her glowing vision for
the future overshadows the present - no matter how gloomy. If you
want to make Sagi truly happy, you must be able to see through the
glowing exterior into the real, sensitive person inside. Try to see
any unhappiness, and help your Sagi recognize and do something about it!
So,
assuming your Sagi is not a sad, lonely clown, how do you make him
happy when he already appears to be just fine and dandy? How can you
create an impact in such a person's life? How can make your Sagi -
who always has something to look forward to - look forward to being
with YOU?
Well,
the answer is very simple. All he needs is appreciation, gratitude
and a healthy dose of freedom. Listen to him spout philosophy. Praise
him for his insights into the future. Allow her to travel endlessly,
read, absorb knowledge and make more of her mind. Ignore the tripping
over words and objects! Really - she is merely blinded by her mental
far-sightedness!! Laugh with sincerity - never with derision. Have
fun with her. Make him the object of your admiration. Think of your
Sagi as a good luck charm, a shaman, a seer and a jester. Keep her
wisdom in your pocket like a talisman, and wear his heart on your
sleeve - but never restrict your Sagi's freedom. Take all of the
above into serious consideration (don't laugh!), and you will be
rewarded with a very wise and fortunate companion in the grand
adventure of life, an energetic, enthusiastic lover and a fun-loving,
true-hearted friend.

Death
in the Tarot |

Death
in the Tarot is associated with Scorpio
~
Changes ~
The
King is dead - Long Live the King!!
This
is probably the most feared and misunderstood card in the Tarot,
especially on first sight, yet for me - Death is one of the most
refreshing of all the trumps. It must be remembered that when this
card appears, it should not be taken as an indication that someone is
going to physically die.
Of
course they will - someday... Death will surely come. We feel its
icy hand in the cold, frosty winter that kills the dead-wood once and
for all so that new seedlings can flourish. We witness the reaper's
wrath in the raging fire that purifies the forest. His shadow lingers
in the slow decay of a sad, loveless marriage, as he eventually
clears the way for new, vibrant love.
Life-renewing,
Death can bring an end to a boring job in favor of something more
challenging and meaningful, or the abandonment of some useless,
time-consuming habit. The promise of something new is what makes
Death so fascinating. Even in actual physical demise, we proceed to a
place that is mysteriously new, and undoubtedly infinitely more
beautiful and peaceful.
I
believe that the quantity of energy in the universe, in our spirits
and in our lives, is somewhat finite. While it's true that we can
expand our capacity for knowledge, experiences and relationships - we
inevitably reach a point of saturation, in which something has to go
in order to allow space for something new to enter the scene. This is
where Death comes in - to clear the air, till the field and bury the
dead. I sometimes wonder if people who are over- filled somehow, and
refuse or are unable to chop out the dead-wood, are actually forced
to leave us in death. This card reminds us that change is necessary,
and inevitable. After we grieve the loss of something or someone, we
can embrace the rays of hope and life that are nourished by the
legacy that is left behind. And we must grieve. Without going through
a time of processing - emotionally, physically, spiritually and
mentally - the personal meaning of that which has passed on - we may
not be able to properly nurture, or even realize the new life that is
given in its wake.
Death
is necessary to life. His arrival is painful, but he promises so
much! May you embrace the changes that await you without fear - mourn
what is over and done with, buried and gone... and witness with
wonder and grace how the pure richness of its passing nourishes the
blossoming flowers...

The
Outer Planets - Chiron, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and the Lunar Nodes
~^.

Uranus
in Pisces! ... Uranus will stay in the Sign of the Fish 'til
2011! Spiritual Revolution you say?? Yes, that would describe it
well. What can we expect with Uranus in Pisces? Perhaps our ideas
about death, sacrifice, the fantastic and impossible, transcendence
and service to humanity will take some dramatic and innovative turns.
We can hope that humanitarianism will take on new meaning and
purpose, and that service to others may become a more integral part
of our social order. With this placement, Uranus can become quite
reclusive or fanatical. Scientists who may have been hiding out for
years in research can bring new and surprising inventions and
discoveries into our midst, and Political Messiahs may come out of
the woodwork. With Uranus and Neptune in mutual reception - they will
rely upon each other more than usual, and herald perhaps a renewed
and revolutionary (Uranus) vision for humanity (Neptune) The cost may
be a certain amount of turmoil and confusion regarding just where we
are going for humanity, and will probably not be without conflict.
Neptune
in Aquarius (til 2012) is helping to set our expressions of love
and creativity into positive, innovative motion. A change in the
prevailing style in movies, fashion and art will be seen in the
months and years to come - probably bringing much more in the realm
of the unusual, shocking, rebellious, and inter-cultural.
Pluto
is on the Sagittarius/Capricorn cusp through the end of 2008,
bringing a new Plutonian era of change in our social institutions,
government and power structures. The very fabric of society may begin
to be re-woven - these are exciting times!! With Pluto first entering
Capricorn accompanied by Venus and Jupiter, we may indeed feel
blessed with good fortune, harmony and high ideals!
The
powerful Neptune/Pluto septile, exact on Dec 1, 2006 and Feb.
21, 2007 will last (going in and out of close orb) into 2011! For
those of us who are very creative, tremendous inspiration can bring
influential, explosive, mind-blowing creations. In love - the
potential for making inspired changes is heightened - yet there also
exists the possibility of getting lost in confusion. Avoid falling
into a pit of despair, or indulging in self-destructive activities.
Getting nowhere fast? Look for Creative and Healthy, Inspired, Loving
outlets to save your skin! Get involved in helping others.... this is
especially important now! Neptune/Pluto can bring a fanaticism wthat
has not been seen since the last such aspect at the beginning of
WWII. Yet - this aspect is also very positive for creating lasting,
humanitarian changes throughout the world.
The
North and South Nodes are now on the Aquarius/Leo axis ('til
8/21/09). This node placement brings positive connections based on
love for humanity and the quest for social equality, along with
healing in the area of self-love and love for loyalty's sake. This is
a good time to examine our motives, use our egos wisely, and take the
high road - or face karmic consequences!
Chiron
in Aquarius... This archetype of human compassion will be
passing nonstop through Aquarius from January 06 til Feb. 2011,
bringing a period of higher inspiration in the realm of healing. We
may look forward to greater cooperation worldwide in the healing
sciences, and perhaps going back to tradition - those time honored
ways that our ancestors enjoyed and practiced in harmony with nature.
Perhaps we may find more and more "health" foods (ie
unaltered and unprocessed) on our grocery shelves, greater acceptance
of mind-body healing approaches, and some brave new ideas to surface, too.

Mewsings
from Venus & Mars... November 2008 |
|
 |
|
Mars
is in Scorpio until 11/16. Mars in Scorpio is passionate and
loyal, and can be vindictive and sting hard. Anyone with a temper
should try to keep out of trouble. However, if you're in need of deep
and meaningful romance, this Mars just might provide the spark you need.
Venus
in Sagittarius til 11/12 is ahead of Mars and heading for
Pluto's position. This Venus needs freedom and won't tolerate
insincerity or intolerance. With Mars in Scorpio, this is a terrific
time to stand up proudly for what you believe in - so get out there
and vote, US Citizens! For couples, remember that fire and water can
be deadly to either - so strive for love and understanding, and
practice patience!
Venus
in Capricorn on 11/13 is looking for pleasure and excellence in
every area of life. She may seem more serious, but she appreciates
good fun. While she has an understanding for the passion and mystery
of Mars in Scorpio, however, she may have little patience for
potentially irresponsible Mars in Sag.
Mars
in Sagittarius on 11/17 prefers not to be tied down. This is a
good time for females to allow their males a bit more freedom and
adventure, or help them find suitable outlets for their natural
instinct to roam. For men - try spoiling her a little, or wowing her
with your successes in life. Also, try not to embarrass her with too
much candor. This could be a great time to take (or plan) a nice
little trip!
FUTURE
FORECAST FOR LOVE
During
the first week in November, Mars sextiles Saturn (Saturn is
nearly trine Jupiter), trines Uranus and squares Neptune, while Venus
squares Saturn and Uranus (opposite - exact on voting day!) and
sextiles Neptune, bringing the ability to mobilize the imagination
and sway opinion, yet also the potential for significant
head-butting. The battleground may be between maintaining the status
quo (personal gain) and moving forward into a more humanitarian
future (Uranus in Pisces). Fortunately, with Saturn in Virgo - the
health of our planet is automatically a major focus.
During
the second week in November, Venus conjuncts Pluto while
Jupiter sextiles Uranus and trines Saturn, indicating female
power, passion within relationships, and expansion of new ideas
taking hold within established halls.
During
the third week, Venus quintiles Uranus and octiles Neptune
while Mars quintiles Saturn. Some may feel compelled to take
chances and leap into new relationships, perhaps with unlikely
others, in order to gain understanding and/or influence .
The
last week in November, Jupiter and Saturn are semi- sextile/inconjunct
Neptune while Mars octiles Jupiter and quintiles Neptune. Venus
nears conjunction with Jupiter and trines Saturn. We might
expect annoyance with unfulfilled dreams and ideals, and may perhaps
need to fall back and re-think or re-structure our goals. This is a
great time to prepare one's thoughts, make lists, and convey a
reasonable, realistic message!
~
The Big Guys ~
Jupiter
in Capricorn til 1/5/09 will help set the stage for societal
changes, and perhaps help to broaden the horizons of our policy
makers and power brokers. This can be a year of making great leaps
forward, taking chances, and making new ways the status quo.
Saturn
in Virgo 'til July 21, 2010 brings our focus to the things of
the earth.. the cleanliness and purity of our physical environment.
These coming years can bring a stronger sense of purpose and
responsibility within our social institutions, government and from
authority figures regarding the sanctity and protection of our mother
earth. A wonderful time this can be!! Let's make conscious
guardianship of our world the central focus for all we do!
