We have some changes to make and are ready to get serious about it as the two emotional planets, Venus and Mars conjunct in intense, focused Scorpio and sextile transformative Pluto all while Jupiter conjuncts change-master Uranus. Scorpio plays hardball; it‘s time to wrestle and work with our passions.
Scorpio energy can get curious on a good day, suspicious on a bad. It is a Scorpio paradox that we can feel unusually curious about others but need unusual amounts of privacy ourselves. This edge can fuel conspiracy theories and reaction will be intense when someone, whether mate or government official, does something unpopular. Protest will be serious, storms intense, and retaliation could be a real problem.
For the next few weeks we may have less sense of humor about our feelings, sharper edges when crossed, be much clearer about what we want and don’t want but less likely to share easily about our feelings casually because they are so deep.
We get to look at our most primal feelings or may feel them leaking upwards into our psyche. Our revenge fantasies can be as intricate as our desires as curiosity or depression calls us to look beneath the surface. To pretend these primal impulses are not there won’t help; if we repress then they just get stronger and run us unconsciously. But we don’t have to let them run the show. If we’re honest with ourselves about what we’re feeling, we can choose whether or not to act out; wanting to twist someone’s head off or to kiss them passionately is not the same as doing so. We can acknowledge them with a rueful smile but call on and act from our more evolved and integrate core.
Relationships will be muskier, more serious, possessive and less flirtatious, with more unspoken non-verbal communication. We want to be alone until we don’t, then may want to connect intensely. We may bless those who can walk with us in companionable silence. In all relationships we need to hold one another with a gentle hand, not tighten up or push away, and learn to be, to paraphrase the poet Rilke, two solitudes who protect, touch and greet each other.
This emotional focus can also confer a boon; it can help us go deep in our studies or help us concentrate on something we really care about. We can throw ourselves into research or some detailed project and see it through.
more and the daily codes as well.
Bright blessings on us all.
