Preparation for Rebirth

This Scorpio season brings a welcome time of repair and renewal in preparation for rebirth. It’s a time of connecting with deep emotion and buried feelings, removing the old and healing the past. There’s a lot of resistance to change on a collective level and we may feel a bit battered and bruised as we let go of old resistances and face up to our own shadow.

This morning’s Scorpio New Moon with its opposition to Uranus could bring an extreme, urgent, do-or-die energy, but rather than forcing the issue an attitude of acceptance, surrender and flow may allow us to achieve our heart’s desire. True power isn’t about control.

Mercury’s journey retrograde through Scorpio for 3 weeks from 31st October allows us to create new plans and brings a re-alignment of conditioned beliefs and values. During this time best allow the process of change to happen without sinking into judging, criticizing or blaming either our selves or others. New structures are best built on solid foundations as we approach the pivotal time of January 2020.

The Serenity prayer might be appropriate at this time: Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.
