MOON IN SCORPIO

I write from a place deep inside—from a geothermal vent of being and presence

Presence is the essence—the essence of our resistance
imparting the power to transform systems and to conjure new religions…

The Moon is in Scorpio and I am asked to go deep—to reimagine our world while deep in sleep
to process, to purge, and to shed old skins that I don’t need to keep

I am called to practice my own snake magic—to penetrate my own defenses and embrace the power of my senses
to unearth truths with the power to storm, reform, and transform

The Moon is the orb of emotion, of feeling, and of passion

She was in Scorpio at the moment when I was born
sharing that house in the sky with the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Uranus

So I feel power in this moment
the power of cosmic convergence
the power to uproot earthly oppression and craft a world of transcendence

I want to leave behind my attachment to pain and fear
my doubt about the path I am to take

and my doubt about the profound presence of the divine in my life

The Moon is in Scorpio and I am urged to shed my vanity and my ego
and Jupiter moves through Pisces allowing me to frolic in abundance, pleasure, and insight…

I am urged to center the relationships that are most generative and reciprocal

I am urged to transform my pain into purpose—to embrace my power to nurture and incubate transformed futures

This moment in time is the manifestation of the resilience of the present

I am guided by family and friends, lovers and conspirators, planets and stars
I will learn to shape my destiny—I will learn to play my part
