New Moon in Scorpio

The October 27th New Moon (4 deg Scorpio @11:38 PM EDT) opposes Uranus RX in Taurus. An opposition is and ending or result, and Uranus is the planet of surprise and liberation. So we have a new beginning (New Moon) directly connected to a surprise ending.
Results may deliver an abrupt wake-up call, and this will push you into some deep, insightful territory. Remembering that Uranus in Taurus is the disruption of limiting habits, outdated sources of income or unproductive approaches to resources, we can assume this will be at the root of your wake-up call.
But rather than propelling you into something that demands action, you will be entering a time of silent stillness. New Moons are times of darkness and the way ahead is not yet fully illuminated. This is emphasized by Scorpio’s secrets and shadows-the surprise that you receive will certainly clarify things, but you’ll have to sit with this for a while and allow events to sink in. The territory that you enter could be uncomfortable, but what you uncover will be powerful. If you’re not sure what to do next, that’s okay.
Adding to the energy of stillness, there is an exact square between Mars in Libra and Saturn in Capricorn. Actions (Mars) will be challenged by limits (Saturn)-the events of this New Moon will bring you to a difficult corner where you’ll have to pause and carefully consider your next action. Don’t try to push past the resistance. Instead, work on rebalancing your efforts as you absorb the powerful revelations of this Moon.

October 25th, 2019: Some Of What You Want

Venus in Scorpio sextile Pluto in Capricorn (20°)
Jupiter in Sagittarius conjunct Ceres (22°)
Venus in Pluto-ruled Scorpio, in harmonious aspect to Pluto, is given an extra boost of quiet power. Here we have deeply private or subterranean wants, resources or values that are intensified by the breakdown and transformation of structures. This sounds dramatic, and it is! But Scorpio’s hidden nature and the gentle energy of this aspect ensure that events will happen imperceptibly but potently. It doesn’t have to be loud to be effective.
Excellent for confirming that you’re on the right track as you deepen a source of intimacy, self-care or inner exploration.
Jupiter/Ceres indicates expansive nurturing and/or an expansive agreement. Looking at the Ceres myth, this crop goddess’ daughter was taken by the king of the underworld (Pluto) and in retaliation she allowed all the crops to wither and the people to starve. Jupiter stepped in and encouraged her to make a deal with Pluto-her daughter was allowed to be with her, above ground, for part of the year and the crops would grow during this time.
Not everything she wanted, but a crucial part (rebirth) of her cycle and certainly better than nothing. Consider how a real- world version of this deal might be functioning in your life. You probably won’t get everything you want, but a conjunction with Jupiter in the sign he rules is the best possible scenario-the growth of something new, something to look forward to, something that will continue to expand.
We must also consider how the Venus/Pluto aspect factors into this: even with the gentle sextile, there’s an all-or nothing vibe that will have to be toned down due to circumstances (Pluto didn’t get everything he wanted either). Nonetheless, today’s overall vibe is abundance.
In mundane matters, this aspect can indicate increased learning/wisdom concerning mothering, food issues or nurturing. Consider where you might need to make concessions in these matters to encourage new growth.

October 24th, 2019: Black Moon Lilith And Venus
Venus in Scorpio trine Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (19°)
Moon in Virgo opposite Black Moon Lilith in Pisces (19°)
It’s always nice when Venus and BML harmonize because that indicates a flow between the more typical expressions of female energy (Venus is about relating) and the atypical, outsider expressions of “dangerous” female sexuality.
Venus in Scorpio is about relating on the deepest possible level. The commitment to intimacy and authenticity is total. Or, perhaps you’re delving into your own hidden resources/taboos. Either way, it’s about being nakedly honest.
But that doesn’t mean everything is on display, because Venus in Scorpio is very private. This supports expressions of sexual energy that are outside the bounds of convention. BML in Pisces is the witch, because she transcends what’s real and defined. Today’s aspect says that she draws her power from your deepest awareness of what you want, love and value. This may be a very private development for yourself, or between you and another.
What’s interesting is that the Moon (Lilith’s opposite) is actually opposing BML from Virgo. This highlights the contrast between the “virginal” mothering/nurturing figure who serves versus the one who serves only herself. It reminds us that BML is not here to make us feel comfortable. The Moon’s opposition may emphasize a choice that you have to make, or tension between two types of women.
Venus is the harmonious, connecting facto; get honest and look at the shadow issues behind mothering, fixing and virgin/whore projections. Who is considered pure and impure, and are these descriptions even valid?
No one said Venus in Scorpio delivered the good stuff easily.

Scorpio Season

The Sun enters Scorpio on October 23rd at 3:29 PM EDT. Scorpio season is the time of depth, intensity, secrets, shadows and hidden resources. It’s when we are encouraged to look inwards for true power or do some soul-searching.
What Scorpio obscures in the shadows is often ugly and frightening. There are very few people with the courage and authenticity to dive into these issues and confront their own fears and taboos.
There can be rewards during this season, but they are not the typical rewards. If you’re prepared to dig into what’s hidden, you can uncover unexpected sources of power, intimacy, commitment or healing. But that means you must commit to going all the way and not shrink back when you come across something disagreeable. Again, what you’re most often confronting are your own issues: shadow work.
This season starts off with a supportive Waning Sextile from the Virgo Moon (to the Scorpio Sun) at 0° on October 23rd. Here is some gentle support as you descend into the underworld. The Waning Sextile encourages forward movement (by leaving the past behind). Virgo presents practical solutions and reassuring information-you’ll know what you have to do and what your next step is. You won’t be facing the Scorpio mysteries without a map.
Go forward, into the shadows.
The Sun exits Scorpio for Sagittarius on November 22nd.
Here are the aspects the Sun will make:
Oct 27th: New Moon 4 deg Scorpio (11:38 PM)
Nov 12th: Full Moon 19 deg Taurus (8:34 AM)
